such failure or delay is caused by or results from unforeseeable causes beyond the reasonable control of the affected Party, potentially including embargoes, war, acts of war (whether war be declared or not), acts of terrorism, insurrections, riots, civil commotions, strikes, lockouts or other labor disturbances, fire, floods, earthquakes or other acts of God, or acts, generally applicable action or inaction by any governmental authority (but excluding any government action or inaction that is specific to such Party, its Affiliates or sublicensees, such as revocation or non-renewal of such Party’s license to conduct business), or omissions or delays in acting by the other Party. The affected Party shall notify the other Party in writing of such force majeure circumstances as soon as reasonably practical, and shall promptly undertake and continue diligently all reasonable efforts necessary to mitigate such force majeure circumstances or to perform its obligations in spite of the ongoing circumstances, and shall resume full performance of its obligations under this Agreement as soon as such force majeure circumstances subside.
14.2 Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned or otherwise transferred, nor may any right or obligation hereunder be assigned or transferred, by either Party without the prior written consent of the other Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either Party may, without consent of the other Party, assign this Agreement and its rights and obligations hereunder to an Affiliate of such Party, or to its successor in interest in connection with the sale of all or substantially all of its stock or its assets to which this Agreement relates, or in connection with a merger, acquisition or similar transaction or as may be required under such Party’s loan or financing arrangements (including an assignment solely of payments due, but not any other rights, hereunder by Dimerix). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of Dimerix, any assignment of the Agreement by Dimerix to a Third Party shall only occur in conjunction with an assignment of the Licensed Technology to the same Person to which the Agreement is assigned. Any attempted assignment not in accordance with the foregoing shall be null and void and of no legal effect. Any permitted assignee shall assume all assigned obligations of its assignor under this Agreement. The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the Parties and their respected successors and permitted assigns.
14.3 Severability. If any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, unless the absence of the invalidated provision(s) adversely affects the substantive rights of the Parties. The Parties shall in such an instance use their best efforts to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision(s) with valid, legal and enforceable provision(s) which, insofar as practical, implement the purposes of this Agreement.
14.4 Notices.

14.5 Dispute Resolution.
(a)The Parties recognize that disputes as to certain matters may from time to time arise that relate to either Party’s rights and/or obligations hereunder, including the interpretation, alleged breach, enforcement, termination or validity of this Agreement (a “Dispute”). For clarity, Dispute shall not include matters within the JSC’s authority, which shall be resolved in accordance with Section 3.4. It is the objective of the Parties to establish procedures to facilitate the resolution of such Disputes arising under this Agreement in an expedient manner by mutual cooperation. To accomplish this objective, the Parties agree that if a Dispute arises under this Agreement, and the Parties are unable to resolve such Dispute within [***] after such Dispute is first identified by either Party in writing to the other, either Party may, by providing written notice to the other Party, refer such Dispute to the Executive Officers of the Parties for attempted resolution by good faith negotiations within [***] after such notice is received. If the Executive Officers are not able to resolve such Dispute within [***], then such Dispute (other than Excluded Claim as defined in Section 14.5(e) below) shall be finally resolved
43

Execution Copy
by binding arbitration administered by JAMS pursuant to JAMS’ Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures then in effect, and judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
(b)The arbitration shall be conducted by a panel of three arbitrators experienced in the pharmaceutical business: within [***] after initiation of arbitration, each Party shall select one person to act as arbitrator and the two Party-selected arbitrators shall select a third arbitrator within [***] of their appointment. If the arbitrators selected by the Parties are unable or fail to agree upon the third arbitrator, the third arbitrator shall be appointed by JAMS. The place of arbitration shall be New York, NY, U.S., and all proceedings and communications shall be in English.
(c)Either Party may apply to the arbitrators for interim injunctive relief until the arbitration award is rendered or the controversy is otherwise resolved. Either Party also may, without waiving any remedy under this Agreement, seek from any court having jurisdiction any injunctive or provisional relief necessary to protect the rights or property of that Party pending the arbitration award. The arbitrators shall have no authority to award punitive or any other type of damages not measured by a Party’s compensatory damages. [***]
(d)Except to the extent necessary to confirm an award or as may be required by law, neither a Party nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of an arbitration without the prior written consent of both Parties. In no event shall an arbitration be initiated after the date when commencement of a legal or equitable proceeding based on the dispute, controversy or claim would be barred by [***].
(e)As used in this Section 14.5, the term “Excluded Claim” shall mean a dispute, controversy or claim that concerns (a) the scope, validity, enforceability, inventorship or infringement of a patent, patent application, trademark or copyright; or (b) any antitrust, anti-monopoly or competition law or regulation, whether or not statutory.
(f)For any Dispute arising under [***] and referred to arbitration pursuant to Section 14.5(a), such Dispute shall be resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with Section 14.5 generally, except that the procedures for the conduct of such arbitration shall be as described in this Section 14.5(f). The arbitration will be conducted in accordance with the JAMS’ Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures then in effect before one arbitrator who is appointed by the Parties and who will have previous judicial experience and experience with license and collaboration arrangements in the life sciences industry. If the Parties fail to agree on selecting an arbitrator, the arbitrator shall be appointed by JAMS. Each Party shall provide the arbitrator and the other Party with a written report setting forth its position with respect to the substance of such Dispute and may submit one or more revised reports and positions to the arbitrator during the proceeding, in accordance with procedures established by the arbitrator. If so requested by the arbitrator, each Party shall make oral and/or other written submissions to the arbitrator in accordance with procedures to be established by the arbitrator; provided that the other Party shall have the right to be present during any oral submissions. The arbitrator shall select one of the Party’s positions as their decision and shall not have the authority to render any substantive decision other than to so select the position of Licensee or Dimerix as set forth in their respective written reports (as initially submitted, or as revised in accordance with the foregoing, as applicable). For clarity, it is understood that the Parties intend the arbitration under this Section 14.5(f) to be a “baseball arbitration” type proceeding; and the arbitrator may fashion such detailed procedures as the arbitrator considers appropriate to implement this intent.
14.6 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, U.S., without reference to any rules of
