(c) EVOLUS shall have sole authority and responsibility and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to develop, modify, seek and/or obtain any necessary Governmental Approvals of any Labeling, packaging, advertising or other promotional or informational materials used in connection with Agreement Products in the Territory, and Promotional Materials and for determining whether the same requires Regulatory Approval.
(d) EVOLUS will be the primary contact with the Regulatory Authorities in the Territory and shall be solely responsible for all communications with such Regulatory Authorities that relate to any Regulatory Submission relating to Agreement Products in the Territory prior to and after any Governmental Approval.
(e) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, EVOLUS may file any submissions that are intended to change or modify Labeling or prescribing information approved by Health Canada for the Agreement Products in the field for the Territory; provided that, except as required by Applicable Laws, EVOLUS will provide to the DISTRIBUTOR a draft of such submission at least ten (10) business days prior to a planned submission to the applicable Regulatory Authority and EVOLUS will give reasonable consideration to any comments the DISTRIBUTOR may have. For greater certainty it is acknowledged and agreed that the labeling with respect to Products for distribution in Canada will be different than labeling for Products for distribution in the United States, as a result of among other things, the requirement in Canada to have the label in both English and French languages.
