Neither the Company nor any subsidiary has received notification of any revocation, modification, suspension, termination or invalidation (or proceedings related thereto) of any such Governmental Permit and to the Knowledge of the Company, no event has occurred that allows or results in, or after notice or lapse of time or both would allow or result in, revocation, modification, suspension, termination or invalidation (or proceedings related thereto) of any such Governmental Permit and the Company has no reason to believe that any such Governmental Permit will not be renewed, except where such revocation, modification, suspension, termination, invalidation or nonrenewal would not, singularly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement, the Company has not granted rights to develop, manufacture, produce, assemble, distribute, license, market or sell its products or product candidates to any other person and is not bound by any agreement that affects the exclusive right of the Company to develop, manufacture, produce, assemble, distribute, license, market or sell its products or product candidates.
