Under the License Agreement, Pharma 1 shall create a Development Plan (as defined in the License Agreement) to pursue all reasonable actions necessary to obtain governmental approval of SOLOSEC (the “Product”) in the Territory. Furthermore, subject to the terms and conditions of the License Agreement, the Company granted to Pharma 1 an exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable license to the Product to advertise, promote, distribute for commercial sale, offer for sale, sell, and import for commercial sale the Licensed Product in the Territory. Within three (3) months from the Effective Date, Pharma 1 must file the regulatory dossier for the Product with the UAE.
