This Amendment No. 5 (“Amendment No. 5”) to the Collaboration and License Agreement (the “Agreement”) by and between Sandoz AG, a Swiss corporation with offices located at Lichtstraβe 35, CH 4056 Basel BS, Switzerland (“Sandoz”) and Momenta Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware company with offices located at 675 West Kendall Street, Cambridge, MA 02142 (“Momenta”) is made effective as of November 30, 2017 (the “Amendment No. 5 Effective Date”). Sandoz and Momenta may hereafter be referred to collectively as the “Parties” and individually as a “Party”.
WHEREAS, Sandoz and Momenta entered into a Collaboration and License Agreement effective as of June 13, 2007, as amended by (i) Amendment No. 1 dated April 25, 2008; (ii) a letter agreement dated December 22, 2008; (iii) Amendment No. 2 dated December 14, 2009, but made effective as of November 1, 2009; (iv) Amendment No. 3 dated April 1, 2011; and (v) Amendment No. 4 dated May 26, 2016; and
WHEREAS, Sandoz and Momenta desire to exclude certain Momenta Patent Rights as of the Amendment No. 5 Effective Date, and return sole and exclusive control of exploitation, preparation, filing, prosecution, maintenance, enforcement, and invalidity defense of such patent rights to Momenta, as further described below; and
WHEREAS, Sandoz and Momenta desire that Sandoz retain the non-exclusive freedom to operate under such patent rights with respect to the Products under the Agreement; and
WHEREAS, the Parties now desire to amend the Agreement to reflect mutually agreed upon revised terms in accordance with the provisions of the Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are mutually acknowledged, the Parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, do hereby agree that the Agreement shall be amended, as of the Amendment No. 5 Effective Date, as follows:
1.The patent rights set forth on Exhibit A (the “Excluded Momenta Patent Rights”) shall be excluded from Momenta Patent Rights, and shall no longer be licensed by Momenta to Sandoz and its Full Affiliates under Section 2.1.1 of the Agreement. For avoidance of doubt, such Excluded Momenta Patent Rights shall as of the Amendment No. 5 Effective Date, no longer be Collaboration Product Specific Patent Rights, Joint Product-Specific Patent Rights, Joint Collaboration Patent Rights, Momenta Collaboration Patent Rights, Momenta Product-Specific Patent Rights, or Product Specific Patent Rights under the Agreement.
2.The exploitation, preparation, filing, prosecution, maintenance, enforcement and invalidity defense of such Excluded Momenta Patent Rights shall be solely and exclusively under the control and at the expense of Momenta.
3.The Excluded Momenta Patent Rights shall no longer be within the scope of the exclusivity covenant in Section 2.3, and subject to Section 5, below, Momenta shall retain all rights to the Excluded Momenta Patent Rights in accordance with Section 2.4 of the Agreement.
4.For clarity, the Excluded Momenta Patent Rights shall no longer be within the scope of the enforcement provision in Section 8.4, the patent invalidity claim in Section 8.6 or the indemnification provision in Section 12.1.
5.Section 2.7 is hereby added to the Agreement:
2.7 Freedom to Operate. Subject to the continuing terms and conditions of this Agreement, Momenta hereby grants to Sandoz and its Full Affiliates during the Term, a nonexclusive license, without the right to grant sublicenses, under the Excluded Momenta Patent Rights to Develop, make, have made, use, sell, offer to sell, lease, import, export, or otherwise Commercialize the Products in the relevant Territory in the Field.
6.Amendment.
