DELIVERY AND USE OF LIBRARY
COMPOUNDS
Section 2.1 Delivery of Library
Compounds.
2.1.1 Infinity shall provide to JJPRD Library Compound
Structural Information on all compounds included in the Library
Compound Pool promptly upon availability.
2.1.2 JJPRD will select from compounds included in the
Library Compound Pool a number of Library Compounds in accordance
with the selection procedures set forth on Exhibit A to this
Agreement.
2.1.3 For the Library Compounds being resynthesized,
Infinity may suggest to JJPRD the use of certain building blocks
that are not represented in the Library Compound Pool along with
the rationale for their suggested use. JJPRD may suggest to
Infinity the use of certain building blocks that are not
represented in the Library Compound Pool along with the rationale
for their suggested use. Each of JJPRD and Infinity will have the
right to approve the use of such building blocks at their sole
discretion and any Library Compounds synthesized by Infinity with
the use of such approved additional building blocks will be deemed
Library Compounds and will be included in the Library Compound
Pool.
6
2.1.4 Infinity shall deliver such Library Compounds to
JJPRD in accordance with the Library Compound Delivery Requirements
in Exhibit A.
Section 2.2 Program
Coordinators.
2.2.1 Designation.
Each Party shall designate one of
its employees to act as its liaison with the other Party for
purposes of this Agreement (such employees, the “Program
Coordinators”). The Program Coordinators will be individuals
with appropriate expertise in research and other matters relevant
to this Agreement. The identities of the initial Program
Coordinators will be communicated by the Parties to each other no
later than thirty (30) days after the Effective Date. Each
Party may change its Program Coordinator at any time by providing
written notice of such change to the other Party.
2.2.2 Duties.
During the Collaboration Term, the
Program Coordinators shall be responsible for ensuring the
effective coordination of all operational aspects of the
relationship established by this Agreement and, to that end, shall
communicate with one another regularly and meet with one another in
person as they deem necessary or desirable. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, during the Collaboration Term, the
Program Coordinators shall communicate with one another regularly
regarding such matters as the selection of Library Compounds,
the delivery by Infinity to JJPRD of Library Compounds, and the
exercise(s) by JJPRD of the Library Compound Exclusivity Option, if
any.
ARTICLE 3
LICENSES
Section 3.1 Infinity
Grants.
3.1.1 Research
License. Infinity hereby
grants to JJPRD a worldwide, non-exclusive[**] license, under
Infinity Intellectual Property, to use compounds included in the
Library Compound Pool and Library Compound Structure Information
for research purposes in the discovery of JJPRD products (which
license shall include the right to use Synthetic Pathways to
synthesize compounds included in the Library Compound Pool and
JJPRD Analogs that derive from such compounds included in the
Library Compound Pool, for the purpose of performing Drug Discovery
Programs); provided that in the event Amgen exercises its option to
exclusively license any compounds included in the Library Compound
Pool under the terms of the Amgen Agreement, the right to use
Synthetic Pathways to synthesize such exclusively licensed
compounds included in the Library Compound Pool and JJPRD Analogs
that are synthesized using such exclusively licensed compounds
included in the Library Compound Pool shall terminate. With respect
to any Exclusive Library Compound of JJPRD, the license set forth
in this Section 3.1.1 shall immediately and automatically
become exclusive (even with respect to Infinity, but subject to any
non-exclusive research licenses [and in the case of Amgen,
non-exclusive research and development licenses granted under the
Amgen Agreement] that had been granted by Infinity to Third Parties
with respect to the relevant compound included in the Library
Compound Pool prior to such compound becoming an Exclusive Library
Compound) upon JJPRD’s payment of the Library Compound
Exclusivity Fee pursuant to Section 3.6.1 of this
7
Agreement and such license shall survive in
perpetuity (subject to any terms and conditions of this Agreement
expressly providing for [**]). Subject to Section 3.3, the
licenses set forth in this Section 3.1.1 shall further include
the right to grant sublicenses to Affiliates of JJPRD and to Third
Party collaborators (provided such collaborators are under an
obligation to not determine the structure of any compound included
in the Library Compound Pool) and Third Party contractors engaged
solely on a fee-for-service basis.
3.1.2 License Limitation and
