    Section 7.4  Potential Third Party Rights.  

    7.4.1  Third Party Licenses.  If (a) in the Collective Opinion of Counsel, a Party, or any of its Affiliates, licensees or permitted sublicensees, cannot Exploit a Collaboration Product in a country in the Territory without infringing one or more Patents that have issued to a Third Party in such country, or (b) as a result of any claim made against a Party, or any of its Affiliates, licensees or permitted sublicensees, alleging that the Exploitation of a Collaboration Product infringes or misappropriates any Patent or any other intellectual property right of a Third Party in a country in the Territory, a judgment is entered by a court of competent jurisdiction from which no appeal is taken within the time permitted for appeal, such that a Party cannot Exploit such Collaboration Product in such country without infringing the Patent or other proprietary rights of such Third Party, then, in either case, the Parties shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to obtain a license in the names of the Parties from such Third Party as necessary for the Exploitation of any Collaboration Products hereunder in such country; provided, however, that Medarex shall have the sole right to seek any such license with respect to Mice-Related Technology or any of its Production Technology, and shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to obtain such a license in

19


its own name from such Third Party in such country, under which Medarex shall, to the extent permissible under such license, grant a sublicense to Seattle Genetics as necessary for Seattle Genetics, and any of its Affiliates and permitted sublicensees, to Exploit the Collaboration Products as provided hereunder in such country; and provided further that Seattle Genetics shall have the sole right to seek any such license with respect to any of its Production Technology, and shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to obtain such a license in its own name from such Third Party in such country, under which Seattle Genetics shall, to the extent permissible under such license, grant a sublicense to Medarex as necessary for Medarex, and any of its Affiliates and permitted sublicensees, to Exploit the Collaboration Products as provided hereunder in such country. The Parties shall [*] percent ([*]%) of any [*] under such [*], except with respect to the Medarex Technology or the Seattle Genetics Technology, where Seattle Genetics and Medarex, respectively, shall only be responsible for [*] percent ([*]%) of those [*] and other [*] with respect to the [*] and the other activities of the Parties hereunder. For purposes of this Section 7.4.1, "Collective Opinion of Counsel" shall mean the final joint opinion of patent counsel selected by Seattle Genetics and patent counsel selected by Medarex, after review of all data and information reasonably available at the time such opinion is rendered. If patent counsel for the Parties cannot agree on a final joint opinion within twenty (20) days after submission of the matter to such counsel, the patent counsel of the Parties shall agree on a third patent counsel who shall offer an independent opinion on the subject matter, which independent opinion shall be deemed the Collective Opinion of Counsel.

    7.4.2  Third Party Litigation.  In the event that a Third Party institutes a Patent, Trademark or other infringement suit (including any suit alleging the invalidity or unenforceability of the Patents of a Party or its Affiliates, or claiming confusion, deception or dilution of a Trademark by a Product Trademark) against either Party or its respective Affiliates, licensees or permitted sublicensees during the Term, alleging that the Exploitation of the Collaboration Products in the Territory or any other activities hereunder, infringes one or more Patent, Trademark or other intellectual property rights held by such Third Party (an "Infringement Suit"), the Parties shall cooperate with one another in defending such suit. Except with respect to the Medarex Technology or the Seattle Genetics Technology, the Parties shall jointly direct and control any Infringement Suit with respect to Collaboration Products or any Joint Patents; provided, however, that no Party shall cease to defend, settle or otherwise dispose of a suit with respect to any intellectual property of the other Party without the prior written consent of such other Party. Each Party shall have the sole right to direct and control (including the right to cease to defend, settle or compromise) any Infringement Suit with respect to its Technology. The Parties shall [*] percent ([*]%) of any costs and expenses of such defense, except with respect to the Medarex Technology or the Seattle Genetics Technology, where Seattle Genetics and Medarex, respectively, shall only [*] percent ([*]%) of those costs and expenses with respect to the Exploitation of Collaboration Products and the other activities of the Parties hereunder.

    7.4.3  Retained Rights.  Nothing in this Section 7.4 shall prevent either Party, at its own expense, from obtaining any license or other rights from Third Parties it deems appropriate in order to permit the full and unhindered exercise of its rights under this Agreement.

    Section 7.5  Exchange of Know-How.  

    7.5.1  Information Disclosure.  Each Party shall, and shall cause its Affiliates, licensees and sublicensees, as applicable, to, without additional compensation and at such Party's sole expense, disclose and make available to the other Party, in whatever form each such other Party may reasonably request, all Regulatory Documentation, all of its other Know-How, all Information and Inventions included in the Joint Technology and any other Information and Inventions relating, directly or indirectly, to the Exploitation of any Collaboration Products immediately after the Effective Date and thereafter immediately upon the earlier of the conception or reduction to

20


practice, discovery, development or making of each such Regulatory Documentation, Know-How, or other Information and Inventions.

    7.5.2  Cooperation.  With respect to the research, development, commercialization or other Exploitation of the Collaboration Products, each Party, shall cooperate with any and all reasonable requests for assistance from the other Party, including by making its employees, consultants and other scientific staff available upon reasonable notice during normal business hours at their respective places of employment to consult with such other Party, as applicable, on issues arising during such research, development, commercialization or Exploitation.

    7.5.3  Biological Materials.  For purposes of facilitating the conduct of the research and development activities under this Agreement, Medarex and Seattle Genetics shall each provide to the other tissues, cells, cell lines, organisms, blood samples, genetic material, and other biological substances and materials, including the Mice Materials, the Collaboration Targets and other Antigens (collectively, "Biological Materials") specified from time to time in this Agreement or the applicable Project Plan. Each Party agrees to provide all such Biological Materials to the other in accordance with the applicable Project Plan, and under the supervision of the Steering Committee. The Parties agree that: (a) all Biological Materials provided by one Party to the other Party and any Biological Material (including Collaboration Products and other Mice Materials) produced against or with, or derived from, such Biological Materials shall be used solely for the research and development activities as provided in the Project Plan, and in material compliance with all Applicable Law; (b) all such Biological Materials shall be provided without any warranties, express or implied; (c) the Party providing such Biological Materials shall obtain (or cause its Third Party collaborators to obtain or certify that they have obtained) all appropriate and required consents from the source of such Biological Materials; (d) Biological Materials provided by one Party to the other Party (other than Collaboration Products) shall not be made available by such other Party to any Third Party except as expressly provided in the Project Plan, unless the prior written consent of the Party providing such Biological Materials is first obtained; and (e) subject to the license grants in Article 3 and other provisions in this Agreement, all right, title and interest in and to (i) the Mice Materials and the Mice-Related Technology shall be, and remain, vested in Medarex, and (ii) the Collaboration Targets shall be, and remain, vested in Seattle Genetics.

    7.5.4  Regulatory Records.  With respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, each Party shall maintain, or cause to be maintained, records of its respective research, development, manufacturing and commercialization activities, including all Regulatory Documentation, in sufficient detail and in good scientific manner appropriate for patent and regulatory purposes, which shall be complete and accurate and shall fully and properly reflect all work done and results achieved in the performance of such activities, and which shall be retained during the term of this Agreement and for a period of five (5) years thereafter, or for such longer period as may be required by Applicable Law. Each Party shall have the right, during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice, to inspect and copy any such records, except to the extent that such records contain proprietary information with respect to the other Party's Production Technology or, with respect to Medarex's records, the HuMAb Mice.

    7.5.5  Production Technology.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7.5 or elsewhere in this Agreement, neither Party shall be obligated to disclose or provide any of its Production Technology, including Biological Materials, to the other Party or any Third Party; provided, however, that each Party shall provide such Production Know-How to the Regulatory Authorities as is necessary to obtain and maintain Regulatory Approval for Collaboration Products supplied by it pursuant to Section 1.6. Each Party shall have the right to provide such Know-How to the Regulatory Authorities in a drug master file, or any foreign equivalent that is designed to protect a Party's Confidential Information.

    Section 8.2  Termination of Agreement for Material Breach.  Failure by a Party to comply with any of its material obligations contained herein shall entitle the Party not in default to give to the Party in default notice specifying the nature of the default, requiring the defaulting Party to make good or otherwise cure such default, and stating its intention to terminate if such default is not cured. If such default is not cured within thirty (30) days after the receipt of such notice (or, if such default cannot be cured within such thirty (30)-day period, if the Party in default does not commence actions to cure such default within such period and thereafter diligently continue such actions or if such default is not otherwise cured within ninety (90) days after the receipt of such notice), the Party not in default shall be entitled, without prejudice to any of its other rights conferred on it by this Agreement, and in addition to any other remedies available to it by law or in equity, to terminate this Agreement in its entirety.

If such default is not cured within thirty (30) days after the receipt of such notice (or, if such default cannot be cured within such thirty (30)-day period, if the Party in default does not commence actions to cure such default within such period and thereafter diligently continue such actions or if such default is not otherwise cured within ninety (90) days after the receipt of such notice), the Party not in default shall be entitled, on written notice to the other Party, to convert such Collaboration Product to a Unilateral Product pursuant to Section 5.1, whereupon the defaulting Party shall be deemed the Opting-Out Party with respect to such Unilateral Product for all purposes hereunder and the notice provided under this provision shall be deemed equivalent to an Election Notice as provided in Section 5.1.

Code, the Party hereto that is not a Party to such proceeding shall be entitled to a complete duplicate of (or complete access to, as appropriate) any such intellectual property and all embodiments of such intellectual property, which, if not already in the non-subject Party's possession, shall be promptly delivered to it (a) upon any such commencement of a bankruptcy proceeding upon the non-subject Party's written request therefor, unless the Party subject to such proceeding elects to continue to perform all of its obligations under this Agreement or (b) if not delivered under clause (a) above, following the rejection of this Agreement by or on behalf of the Party subject to such proceeding upon written request therefor by the non-subject Party.

    8.7.1  Accrued Rights.  Termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason shall be without prejudice to any rights that shall have accrued to the benefit of a Party prior to such termination or expiration.

INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE

    Section 9.1  Indemnification of Medarex.  Seattle Genetics shall indemnify Medarex and its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees and agents, and defend and save each of them harmless, from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) in connection with any and all liability suits, investigations, claims or demands (collectively, "Losses") arising from or occurring as a result of or in connection with (a) any breach by Seattle Genetics of this Agreement, or (b) the gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Seattle Genetics or its Affiliates, licensees or sublicensees in performing any activity contemplated by this Agreement, except for those Losses for which Medarex has an obligation to indemnify Seattle Genetics pursuant to Section 9.2, as to which Losses each Party shall indemnify the other to the extent of their respective liability for the Losses.

    Section 9.2  Indemnification of Seattle Genetics.  Medarex shall indemnify Seattle Genetics, its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, and defend and save each of them harmless, from and against any and all Losses arising from or occurring as a result of or in connection with (a) any breach by Medarex of this Agreement, or (b) the gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Medarex or its Affiliates, licensees or sublicensees in performing any activity contemplated by this Agreement, except for those Losses for which Seattle Genetics has an obligation to indemnify Medarex and its Affiliates pursuant to Section 9.1, as to which Losses each Party shall indemnify the other to the extent of their respective liability for the Losses.

23


    Section 9.3  Indemnification Procedure.  

    9.3.1  Notice of Claim.  The indemnified Party shall give the indemnifying Party prompt written notice (an "Indemnification Claim Notice") of any Losses or discovery of fact upon which such indemnified Party intends to base a request for indemnification under Section 9.1 or Section 9.2, but in no event shall the indemnifying Party be liable for any Losses that result from any delay in providing such notice. Each Indemnification Claim Notice must contain a description of the claim and the nature and amount of such Loss (to the extent that the nature and amount of such Loss are known at such time). The indemnified Party shall furnish promptly to the indemnifying Party copies of all papers and official documents received in respect of any Losses. All indemnification claims in respect of a Party, its Affiliates or their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (collectively, the "Indemnitees" and each an "Indemnitee") shall be made solely by such Party to this Agreement (the "Indemnified Party").

    9.3.2  Third Party Claims.  The obligations of an indemnifying Party under this Article 9 with respect to Losses arising from claims of any Third Party that are subject to indemnification as provided for in Section 9.1 or 9.2 (a "Third Party Claim") shall be governed by and be contingent upon the following additional terms and conditions:

    (a)  Control of Defense.  At its option, the indemnifying Party may assume the defense of any Third Party Claim by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days after the indemnifying Party's receipt of an Indemnification Claim Notice. The assumption of the defense of a Third Party Claim by the indemnifying Party shall not be construed as an acknowledgment that the indemnifying Party is liable to indemnify any Indemnitee in respect of the Third Party Claim, nor shall it constitute a waiver by the indemnifying Party of any defenses it may assert against any Indemnitee's claim for indemnification. Upon assuming the defense of a Third Party Claim, the indemnifying Party may appoint as lead counsel in the defense of the Third Party Claim any legal counsel selected by the indemnifying Party. In the event the indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall immediately deliver to the indemnifying Party all original notices and documents (including court papers) received by any Indemnitee in connection with the Third Party Claim. Should the indemnifying Party assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party or any other Indemnitee for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party or other Indemnitee in connection with the analysis, defense or settlement of the Third Party Claim. In the event that it is ultimately determined that the indemnifying Party is not obligated to indemnify, defend or hold harmless an Indemnitee from and against the Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall reimburse the indemnifying Party for any and all costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees and costs of suit) and any Losses incurred by the indemnifying Party in its defense of the Third Party Claim with respect to such Indemnitee.

    (b)  Right to Participate in Defense.  Without limiting Section 9.3.2(a), any Indemnitee shall be entitled to participate in, but not control, the defense of such Third Party Claim and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose; provided, however, that such employment shall be at the Indemnitee's own expense unless (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the indemnifying Party in writing, or (ii) the indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense and employ counsel in accordance with Section 9.3.2(a) (in which case the Indemnified Party shall control the defense).

    (c)  Settlement.  With respect to any Losses relating solely to the payment of money damages in connection with a Third Party Claim and that will not result in the Indemnitee's becoming subject to injunctive or other relief or otherwise adversely affect the business of the Indemnitee in any manner, and as to which the indemnifying Party shall have acknowledged in

24


writing the obligation to indemnify the Indemnitee hereunder, the indemnifying Party shall have the sole right to consent to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Loss, on such terms as the indemnifying Party, in its sole discretion, shall deem appropriate. With respect to all other Losses in connection with Third Party Claims, where the indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 9.3.2(a), the indemnifying Party shall have authority to consent to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Loss provided it obtains the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). The indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement or other disposition of a Loss by an Indemnitee that is reached without the written consent of the indemnifying Party. Regardless of whether the indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Third Party Claim, no Indemnitee shall admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the indemnifying Party.

    (d)  Cooperation.  Regardless of whether the indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall, and shall cause each other Indemnitee to, cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof and shall furnish such records, information and testimony, provide such witnesses and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith. Such cooperation shall include access during normal business hours afforded to the indemnifying Party to, and reasonable retention by the Indemnified Party of, records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim, and making Indemnitees and other employees and agents available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder, and the indemnifying Party shall reimburse the Indemnified Party for all its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith.

    (e)  Expenses.  Except as provided above, the reasonable and verifiable costs and expenses, including fees and disbursements of counsel, incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with any claim shall be reimbursed on a calendar quarter basis by the indemnifying Party, without prejudice to the indemnifying Party's right to contest the Indemnified Party's right to indemnification and subject to refund in the event the indemnifying Party is ultimately held not to be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party.

    Section 9.4  Insurance.  Each Party shall have and maintain such types and amounts of liability insurance as is normal and customary in the industry generally for parties similarly situated, and shall upon request provide the other Party with a copy of its policies of insurance in that regard, along with any amendments and revisions thereto.

ARTICLE 11—
MISCELLANEOUS

    Section 11.1  Force Majeure.  Neither Party shall be held liable or responsible to the other Party or be deemed to have defaulted under or breached this Agreement for failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any term of this Agreement when such failure or delay is caused by or results from events beyond the reasonable control of the non-performing Party, including fires, floods, embargoes, shortages, epidemics, quarantines, war, acts of war (whether war be declared or not), insurrections, riots, civil commotion, strikes, lockouts or other labor disturbances, acts of God or acts, omissions or delays in acting by any governmental authority. The non-performing Party shall notify the other Party of such force majeure within ten (10) days after such occurrence by giving written notice to the other Party stating the nature of the event, its anticipated duration, and any action being taken to avoid or minimize its effect. The suspension of performance shall be of no greater scope and no longer duration than is necessary and the non-performing Party shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to remedy its inability to perform; provided, however, that in the event the suspension of performance continues for one-hundred and eighty (180) days after the date of the occurrence, the Parties shall meet to discuss in good faith how to proceed in order to accomplish the goals of the Collaboration outlined in this Agreement.

    Section 11.2  Subcontractors.  Each Party shall have the right, subject to the prior written consent of the Steering Committee, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, to subcontract any of its research, development, manufacture and/or commercialization activities to a Third Party, provided that it furnishes the other Party with advanced written notice thereof, which notice shall specify the work to be subcontracted, and obtains a written undertaking from the subcontractor that it shall be subject to the applicable terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the provisions of Article 6. If a Party wishes to subcontract any of its research, development, manufacturing or commercialization activities to a Third Party and the Steering Committee consents, the other Party may submit a bid to the subcontracting Party to perform such work. The subcontracting Party shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to enter into an agreement with the bidder that is best able to meet the Collaboration's requirements, taking into consideration such factors as price, quality, capacity, quantity, reliability and reputation, provided that such bidder is reasonably acceptable to the Steering Committee. Unless the Project Plan provides, or the Steering Committee agrees otherwise, the Parties shall share equally (50%) in the costs and expenses associated with the use of a subcontractor to conduct research, development, manufacture and commercialization activities, but, unless the Parties agree otherwise, the subcontracting Party shall remain solely liable for the performance of its research, development, manufacture or commercialization activities by its subcontractor; provided, however, that Seattle Genetics and Medarex each shall remain solely responsible for all costs and expenses associated with its use of subcontractor(s) with respect to the Seattle Genetics Research Activities and the Medarex Research Activities, respectively.

    Section 11.3  Assignment.  Without the prior written consent of the other Party hereto, neither Party shall sell, transfer, assign, delegate, pledge or otherwise dispose of, whether voluntarily, involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, this Agreement or any of its rights or duties hereunder; provided, however, that either Party hereto may assign or transfer this Agreement or any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the consent of the other Party (a) to any Affiliate of such Party; or (b) to any Third Party with which it may merge or consolidate, or to which it may transfer all or substantially all of its assets to which this Agreement relates if in any such event (i) the assigning Party (provided that it is not the surviving entity) remains jointly and severally liable with the relevant Seattle Genetics Affiliate, Medarex Affiliate or Third Party assignee under this Agreement, and (ii) the relevant Seattle Genetics Affiliate or Medarex Affiliate assignee, Third Party assignee or surviving entity assumes in writing all of the assigning Party's obligations under this Agreement.
