5. Withdrawal Right
(a) The Withdrawal Right described and defined in this Section 5 will be triggered only as a result of a Charitability Default.
(b) A “Charitability Default” will occur if the Company (i) is in material breach of any of the Global Access Commitments, including the material failure to conduct the Programs as described above, other than for reasons of regulatory, technical or scientific failure not within the reasonable control of the Company and not known to the Company at or before closing of the Foundation Investment, (ii) fails to comply with the restrictions in Sections 2 and 9 of this Letter Agreement on the use of proceeds from the Foundation Investment, or (iii) fails to comply with the other related U.S. legal obligations set forth in this Letter Agreement, including the requirements set forth in Sections 6, 9, 11, and 12. Each party agrees to promptly notify the other party in writing if it becomes aware of a Charitability Default and the Company will thereafter promptly provide to the Foundation a proposed strategy to remedy the Charitability Default.
