TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER

4.1    General. For the purposes of technology transfer process described in Section 4.2 of the License Agreement with respect to Drug Substance, this ARTICLE 4 sets forth the rights and duties of the Parties to provide technology transfer services with respect to the Manufacture of Drug Substance. For clarity, Section 4.2 of the License Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

4.2    Technology Transfer.

4.2.1    Transition Plan. In accordance with the transition plan attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Drug Substance Transition Plan”), as may be amended or modified by the Parties from time to time upon mutual written agreement, Takeda shall use reasonable efforts to make available to Myovant’s initial CMO all Takeda Know-How [***] that is reasonably necessary or useful to enable the Manufacture of Drug Substance up until the successful completion of the applicable process validation protocol for such CMO to Myovant’s reasonable satisfaction (the Transition Completion), including without limitation all Inventions and other improvements to the Manufacture of Drug Substance discovered or developed in connection with this Agreement, by or on behalf of Myovant (the “Takeda Manufacturing Know-How”), by providing copies or samples of relevant documentation, materials, and other embodiments of such Takeda Manufacturing Know-How, including data within reports, notebooks, and electronic files. Takeda shall perform the tasks and deliver each deliverable pursuant to the Drug Substance Transition Plan. If the Parties disagree on the occurrence of Transition Completion, then either Party may refer such disagreement to the JRC for a final determination that shall be binding on both Parties in accordance with the terms of License Agreement as applicable. Except as otherwise expressly specified in the Drug Substance Transition Plan, Takeda shall be permitted to make such Takeda Manufacturing Know-How available in such form as Takeda determines in its sole reasonable discretion, including, if Takeda so elects, in the form such Takeda Manufacturing Know-How is maintained by Takeda. If reasonably requested by Myovant or such Qualified Designee, Takeda may translate any Takeda Manufacturing Know-How into English as part of the Transition Services to be performed by Takeda in accordance with Section 4.2.3 hereof. For clarity, Takeda shall be only required to perform the activities set forth in the Drug Substance Transition Plan with respect to Myovant or such Qualified Designee. If Myovant wishes to transfer the Takeda Know-How to any other Qualified Designee, then Myovant (and its initial Qualified Designee) shall be solely responsible for such technology transfer thereto; provided, however, that if Myovant reasonably requests Takeda’s assistance, Takeda may provide such assistance as far as reasonably needed and available to Takeda. In any event, all the technology transfer services conducted by Takeda hereunder shall be at Myovant’s sole cost and expense.

6.1.2    Binding Quantities.

(a)    Initial Firm Order. Myovant shall order and hereby orders, and Takeda shall supply to Myovant, the Drug Substance set forth on Schedule 6.1.2(a) (the “Initial Firm Order”), which sets forth the quantities of Drug Substance to be delivered through the [***] (such period, the “Initial Firm Order Period”). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Takeda hereby irrevocably accepts the Initial Binding Order.

(b)    Subsequent Firm Orders. After the Initial Firm Order Period, the first [***] of each Rolling Forecast for Drug Substance submitted by Myovant (the Initial Firm Order Period and each such subsequent period, as applicable, a “Firm Order Period”) shall be, unless Takeda otherwise notifies Myovant not later than [***] Business Days after Takeda’s actual receipt thereof, binding upon Myovant and Takeda, and shall constitute a firm order (the Initial Firm Order and each such subsequent firm order, a “Firm Order”). For clarity, the Rolling Forecast issued in accordance with Section 6.1.1 on the [***]. The remainder of each Rolling Forecast that is not within the Firm Order Period shall be non-binding upon Myovant and Takeda, and may be changed by Myovant thereafter, subject to Takeda’s rights and remedies available hereunder, among others, those pursuant to Sections 6.1.2 through 6.1.4 (both inclusive) hereof.

(c)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement other than Section 18.3 (Consequences of Termination) hereof, as for the Initial Firm Order or any Firm Order, if Myovant makes reductions with respect to the Initial Firm Order Period or any Firm Order Period in any subsequent Rolling Forecast or otherwise and fails to accordingly order and purchase such Drug Substance for any reason whatsoever, then, subject to Section 17.2 hereof, Myovant shall [***] reasonably accrued to or incurred by Takeda arising out of or in connection with such change or failure and pursuant to Section 6.1.4 hereof (and without prejudice to those for the experiment, return and otherwise disposal thereof); provided, however, that Takeda makes its commercially reasonable efforts to [***].

6.1.3    Purchase Orders.

(a)    Issuance and Acceptance.

(b)    Deviations from the Firm Order. If the quantity set forth in a given Purchase Order exceeds the quantity set forth in the corresponding Firm Order, Takeda shall use its reasonable efforts to satisfy the amount contained in such Purchase Order; provided, however, that Takeda shall not be required to Manufacture and supply the quantity set forth in such Purchase Order that exceeds the quantity set forth in the corresponding Firm Order. For the avoidance of doubt, such reasonable efforts shall not require Takeda [***]. For clarity, further, Myovant cannot issue a Purchase Order that is less than the quantity set forth in the corresponding Firm Order for Drug Substance.

6.1.4    [***].

(a)    Reimbursement by Myovant. The Parties acknowledge that: (a) Takeda will order [***] from Third Parties based on the quantities and delivery dates specified in each Rolling Forecast for delivery of Drug Substance under this Agreement unless Takeda otherwise notifies Myovant not later than [***] Business Days after Takeda’s actual receipt thereof; and (b) the sum that Myovant is obligated to pay Takeda for Drug Substance in accordance with Section 3.1.1 hereof is based on the costs of [***] in the Manufacture of such Drug Substance under this Agreement. Therefore, if (i) in any Rolling Forecast, Myovant reduces the quantity of Drug Substance forecast during the first [***] Calendar Quarters of such Rolling Forecast from the quantity that was forecasted for the same period in the then immediately prior Rolling Forecast, and (ii) Takeda incurs any non-cancellable costs for purchase of [***] that (A) is no longer needed to Manufacture Drug Substance under this Agreement as a result of such reduction and (B) cannot be used or sold by Takeda or its Affiliates for some other purpose, including to satisfy Takeda’s own requirements for [***], then Myovant shall pay Takeda [***] provided, however, that in no event shall Myovant be obligated to [***].

(b)    Storage Fees. If Myovant notifies Takeda that Myovant wishes to delay the delivery of Drug Substance forecast during the first [***] Calendar Quarters of any Rolling Forecast and requests that Takeda store [***] for use in the Manufacture of such delayed Drug Substance, then Myovant and Takeda will discuss reasonable storage fees that would, upon written agreement, be paid by Myovant for storage of such [***].

6.2    Delivery. Subject to Section 19.1 hereof, Takeda shall supply the Drug Substance under a Purchase Order as accepted in accordance with Section 6.1.3(a) by way of delivery pursuant to Article 8 hereof. If Takeda is unable to meet the specified delivery date thereunder, Takeda shall notify Myovant as soon as reasonably practicable after becoming aware thereof, and both Parties shall promptly discuss with each other the then optimal solution in good faith. By way of example, Takeda may provide to Myovant an alternative delivery date which is as close to the originally agreed delivery date as reasonably possible. Delivery by Takeda of up to [***] of the quantity of Drug Substance under a given Purchase Order shall be accepted by Myovant in full satisfaction of Takeda’s obligation to supply such Purchase Order, subject to Myovant’s inspection of the Drug Substance in accordance with Section 9.1 hereof.

If Takeda delivers Drug Substance more than [***] days after the delivery date specified in the relevant Purchase Order and such failure is not attributable to Myovant, then Takeda shall allocate inventory of Drug Substance in accordance with Section 6.5 hereof. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement or otherwise agreed on by the Parties in writing, if Takeda materially fails to deliver Drug Substance by the delivery dates under the applicable Purchase Order(s) as accepted for [***] consecutive Calendar Quarters in a Fiscal Year, then Myovant shall have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 18.2.1 hereof.

6.3    Notice of Potential Inability to Supply. Takeda shall inform Myovant of any events that may prevent Takeda from fulfilling its supply obligations with respect to amounts of Drug Substance pursuant to any portion of any Firm Order as soon as reasonably practicable after becoming aware of such events. In the event Takeda notifies Myovant of a potential inability to supply Drug Substance, the Parties shall promptly discuss with each other the then optimal solution in good faith. If Takeda’s inability to fulfill its supply obligation is due to the [***] and/or [***] or because [***] of Takeda and/or its supplier is such that Takeda and/or its supplier is unable to meet the demand for Drug Substance requested by Myovant, and except as otherwise set forth herein, [***], including Myovant and Takeda, by way of example, in such proportion as the [***].

19.4    Audits. Each Party will maintain complete and accurate records in sufficient detail to permit the other Party to confirm the accuracy of the calculation of any amounts due under this Agreement.

In addition, in accordance with the Quality Agreement, Myovant shall have the right, upon at least [***] Business Days’ notice to Takeda, and such date to be reasonably agreed upon by the Parties, either by itself or through independent outside auditors or consultants, not more than [***] during the Term of this Agreement, unless reasonable cause is shown, to inspect and audit, at its sole expense and during normal business hours and in a manner that does not interfere unreasonably with operations, any areas in Takeda’s Manufacturing facility or any other facilities in which any portion of the Manufacturing, packaging or other activities with respect to any Drug Substance or [***] is performed.

19.5    Relationship of the Parties. It is expressly agreed that Takeda, on the one hand, and Myovant, on the other hand, will be independent contractors and that the relationship between the two Parties will not constitute a partnership, joint venture or agency. Neither Takeda nor Myovant will have the authority to make any statements, representations or commitments of any kind, or to take any action which will be binding on the other, without the prior written consent of the other Party to do so. All persons employed by a Party will be employees of that Party and not of the other Party and all expenses and obligations incurred by reason of such employment will be for the account and expense of such Party.

19.6    Designation of Affiliates. Each Party may discharge any obligations and exercise any rights hereunder through delegation of its obligations or rights to any of its Affiliates. Each Party hereby guarantees the performance by its Affiliates of such Party’s obligations under this Agreement, and will cause its Affiliates to comply with the provisions of this Agreement in connection with such performance.

Any permitted assignment will be binding on the successors of the assigning Party. Any assignment or attempted assignment by either Party in violation of the terms of this Section 19.7 will be null, void and of no legal effect.

19.8    Severability. If any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction from which no appeal can be or is taken, the provision will be considered severed from this Agreement and will not serve to invalidate any remaining provisions hereof. The Parties will make a good faith effort to replace any invalid or unenforceable provision with a valid and enforceable one such that the objectives contemplated by the Parties when entering this Agreement may be realized.
