For avoidance of doubt, the Transferee shall have no right, title or interest in any payment related to the payment of royalties by GSK to TRC LLC prior to the first fiscal quarter of 2020.
Ìý
(b)ÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýThe Transferor and the Transferee intend and agree that the sale, contribution, assignment, transfer, conveyance and granting of the Transferred Assets under this Sale and Contribution Agreement shall be, and are, a true, complete, absolute and irrevocable contribution and sale by the Transferor to the Transferee of the Transferred Assets and that such contribution and sale shall provide the Transferee with the full benefits of ownership of the Transferred Assets. The Transferor hereby relinquishes all title and control over the Transferred Assets upon the transfer of the Transferred Assets hereunder. Neither the Transferor nor the Transferee intends the transactions contemplated hereby to be, or for any purpose characterized as, a loan from the Transferee to the Transferor or a pledge or assignment or a security agreement. The Transferor waives any right to contest or otherwise assert that this Sale and Contribution Agreement does not constitute a true, complete, absolute and irrevocable sale and contribution by the Transferor to the Transferee of the Transferred Assets under Applicable Law, which waiver shall be enforceable against the Transferor in any Bankruptcy Event in respect of the Transferor.

Ìý
(d)ÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýIf, notwithstanding Section 2.1(a) and Section 2.1(b), the transfer of the Transferred Assets pursuant to this Sale and Contribution Agreement is characterized as a collateral transfer for security or as a financing transaction (a â€�Recharacterization Eventâ€�), the Transferor intends that the Transferee have a perfected security interest in, and Lien on, the Transferred Assets to secure an obligation of the Transferor to pay to the Transferee an amount equal to the value of the Transferred Assets (the â€�Transferor Secured Amountâ€�). Accordingly, if a Recharacterization Event occurs, the Transferor does hereby grant to the Transferee a security interest in, to and under the Transferred Assets and all proceeds thereof, whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired, in each case to secure the obligation of the Transferor set forth in Section 2.1(e).

Section 8.3ÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýProcedures. If any claim, demand, action or proceeding (including any investigation by any Governmental Authority) shall be brought against an indemnified party in respect of which indemnity is to be sought against an indemnifying party pursuant to Sections 8.1 or 8.2, as applicable, the indemnified party shall, promptly after receipt of notice of the commencement of any such claim, demand, action or proceeding, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement of such claim, demand, action or proceeding, enclosing a copy of all papers served, if any; provided, that the omission to so notify such indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that it may have to any indemnified party under Sections 8.1 or 8.2, as applicable, unless, and only to the extent that, the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such omission. In the event that any such action is brought against an indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof in accordance with this Section 8.3, the indemnifying party will be entitled, at the indemnifying party’s sole cost and expense, to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Article VIII for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. In any such proceeding, an indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (a) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel at the indemnifying party’s expense, (b) the indemnifying party has assumed the defense of such proceeding and has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party or (c) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicts of interests between them based on the advice of counsel to the indemnifying party. It is agreed that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate law firm for each jurisdiction for all such indemnified parties. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement, compromise or discharge of any claim or pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement, compromise or discharge, as the case may be, (i) includes an unconditional written release of such indemnified party, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such claim or proceeding, (ii) does not include any statement as to an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party and (iii) does not impose any continuing material obligation or restrictions on any indemnified party.
Ìý
Section 8.4ÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýExclusive Remedy. Except in the case of fraud or intentional breach, following the Closing, the indemnification afforded by this Article VIII shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for money damages awarded against or incurred or suffered by a Transferee Indemnified Party in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, including with respect to any breach of any representation, warranty or certification made by a party hereto in any of the Transaction Documents or certificates given by a party hereto in writing pursuant hereto or thereto or any breach of or default under any covenant or agreement by a party hereto pursuant to any Transaction Document. Notwithstanding anything in this Sale and Contribution Agreement to the contrary, in the event of any breach or failure in performance of any covenant or agreement contained in any Transaction Document, the non-breaching party shall be entitled to specific performance, injunctive or other equitable relief pursuant to Section 9.2.

Neither this Sale and Contribution Agreement nor any term or provision hereof may be amended, supplemented, restated, waived, changed or otherwise modified except with the written consent of the parties hereto; provided, that unless (i) the amendment or other modification is solely for purposes of correcting a technical error, inconsistency or ambiguity, adding to the covenants or agreements to be observed by the Transferee for the benefit of the Noteholders, complying with the requirements of the SEC or any other regulatory body or any Applicable Law or (ii) the amendment or other modification does not adversely affect the interests of the Noteholders in any material respect as confirmed in an Officer’s Certificate of the Transferee, the Transferee shall provide at least ten (10) Business Daysâ€� prior written notice of the amendment or other modification to the Noteholders and the amendment or the modification shall not be effective if the Controlling Party notifies the Transferee within such ten (10) Business Day period that it would be materially adversely affected by the amendment or other modification and does not consent to the amendment or other modification.

Ìý
Section 9.16ÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýCurrency Exchange. If, for the purpose of obtaining a judgment or order in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder from Dollars into another currency, the Transferor has agreed, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which, in accordance with normal banking procedures, the Transferee could purchase Dollars with such other currency in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York on the Business Day preceding the day on which final judgment is given.
Ìý
Section 9.17ÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýJudgment Currency.

If the amount of Dollars so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Transferee in the Judgment Currency (determined in the manner set forth in Section 9.16), the Transferor agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Transferee against such loss, and, if the amount of the Dollars so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to the Transferee, the Transferee shall remit to the Transferor such excess, provided that the Transferee shall have no obligation to remit any such excess as long as the Transferor shall have failed to pay the Transferee any obligations due and payable to the Transferee hereunder, in which case such excess may be applied to such obligations of the Transferor in accordance with the terms hereof. The foregoing indemnity shall constitute a separate and independent obligation of the Transferor and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any such judgment or order as aforesaid.

Ìý
Section 9.18ÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌý Waiver of Immunity. To the extent that the Transferor or Theravance Biopharma may in any jurisdiction claim for itself or its assets immunity (to the extent such immunity may now or hereafter exist, whether on the grounds of sovereign immunity or otherwise) from suit, execution, attachment (whether in aid of execution, before judgment or otherwise) or other legal process (whether through service or notice or otherwise), and to the extent that in any such jurisdiction there may be attributed to itself or its assets such immunity (whether or not claimed), the Transferor or Theravance Biopharma, as the case may be, irrevocably agrees with respect to any matter arising under this Sale and Contribution Agreement for the benefit of the Transferee not to claim, and irrevocably waives, such immunity to the full extent permitted by the Applicable Laws of such jurisdiction.
