In the event that a Secured Financing Event Purchase is followed by another Repurchase Event, amounts previously credited under clause (c)(i) or (ii) shall not be applied to reduce the Repurchase Price for the subsequent Repurchase Event. Notwithstanding anything herein or in any Schedules to the contrary, the sum of (a) any Repurchase Price (after giving effect to the reductions set forth in the first sentence of this Section 5.07(c)), plus (b) the amounts actually paid to Assignees under Sections 2.02(a), (b), (c), (f) and (g), shall not exceed $147 million. * The asterisk denotes that confidential portions of this exhibit have been omitted in reliance on Rule 24b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

(e) Assignees' failure to exercise the Assignees Option Repurchase under Section 5.07(a) upon the occurrence of a Purchase Option Event shall not preclude Assignees from exercising the Assignees Option Repurchase under Section 5.07(a) upon the occurrence of a subsequent Purchase Option Event. (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 5.07(a), Assignees shall not be entitled to exercise an Assignees Option Repurchase based upon the occurrence of an event described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of the definition of Change of Control if: (i) Simultaneously with (or, as applicable in clauses (i)(2) through (i)(5) below, thereafter) the occurrence of the Change of Control (or, in the case of an event described in clause (ii) of the definition of Change of Control, upon the closing of the transaction that results from the Change of Control), the surviving entity in the Change of Control transaction, whether Guilford or another Person (the "Surviving Party"), (1) assumes (or if the Surviving Party is Guilford, as to its own existing obligations hereunder, affirms and as to its additional obligations agrees to) all of the obligations of Guilford and Assignor to Assignees hereunder and the additional undertakings described in clauses (2) through (7) below pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Assignees; (2) maintains (as applicable with respect to the following specified periods) a fully-dedicated Aggrastat salesforce of at least 25 people (on a full time equivalent basis) from and after June 30, 2004; 45 people from and after June 30, 2005; and 75 people at all times from and after June 30, 2006; (3) maintains sales and marketing expenditures for Aggrastat that are not less than the amounts indicated in the Net Sales Projections and Budget provided to Assignees by Guilford on June 25, 2003, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit J; (4) maintains an EBITDA to Total Debt Service Ratio of 1.25:1.00 and a Total Debt to Total Capitalization Ratio of 0.5:1.0, on a pro forma basis as of the date of the Change of Control (after giving effect to the transaction, if any, that results from the Change of Control) and thereafter measured quarterly on the last day of each calendar quarter on a consolidated basis; (5) achieves Primary Product Net Sales of at least 85% of the * Sales * as projected for each year during the Term; (6) with respect to such Surviving Party, Guilford and Assignor, no Bankruptcy Event or Notice Event occurs at any time and such Person does not become Insolvent at any time; and (7) such Surviving Party's ultimate parent * The asterisk denotes that confidential portions of this exhibit have been omitted in reliance on Rule 24b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

If, at any time or from time to time, any of the provisions in clauses (i) and (ii) of this subsection (f) are not fulfilled, then the Change of Control shall be deemed to be a Purchase Option Event from the first date on which any provision was not fulfilled, Assignees shall have the rights they would otherwise have had under Section 5.07(a) of this Agreement beginning on such date and, if the Assignees exercise an Assignees Option Repurchase, the Assignees Option Repurchase Price shall be immediately due and payable as of the date of such exercise. (g) In the event the Assignees elect to exercise an Assignees Option Repurchase based upon the occurrence of an event described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of the definition of Change of Control and (A) there has not occurred any Notice Event or Bankruptcy Event and (B) none of the Guilford 5% Convertible Subordinated Notes due 2008 are accelerated, none of the holders of such notes have elected to have such notes repurchased pursuant to a Designated Event Offer (as defined in the Subordinated Indenture) and no other holder of Indebtedness of Guilford or Assignor has accelerated such Indebtedness or elected to have such Indebtedness repurchased, the Assignor may elect by written notice given within the Assignees Option Repurchase Period to pay the Assignees Option Repurchase Price either (i) by the payment of one hundred percent (100%) of the Assignees Option Repurchase Price in cash or (ii) by the payment of seventy-five percent (75%) of the Assignees Option Repurchase Price in cash and the remainder, as elected by Assignees in their sole discretion, either by the issuance of (x) common stock of Guilford, covered by an effective resale registration statement which Guilford shall covenant to maintain effective for a period of two (2) years after the date of the issuance of such common stock to Assignees, at a 10% discount to the current market price (determined by the average closing market prices for the ten (10) trading days before the date of the Assignees' election to take such stock), or (y) a secured promissory note of Guilford and Assignor (secured at the least by the Collateral that secures the Obligations upon the occurrence of the Closing provided for in this Agreement and guaranteed by Guilford's ultimate parent in a form comparable to Section 5.13 of this Agreement) senior to all other debt and equity of any kind or type of both Guilford and Assignor, payable in 12 equal quarterly installments of principal with interest at a rate of 20% per annum (or, if lower, the highest legal rate) payable as to principal installments and interest quarterly, each on the last day of each calendar quarter with any unpaid interest to be compounded monthly. (h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 5.07(a), Assignees shall not exercise an Assignees Option Repurchase based solely upon the occurrence and continuance of an event described in clause (iii) of the definition of Purchase Option Event if (i) on the Closing Date, Assignor pledges to Assignees, and grants to Assignees a first priority security interest in, a collateral account containing unrestricted cash, cash equivalents or other Acceptable Investments in an amount equal to $11,250,000, pursuant to security documents and control agreements acceptable to Assignees (the "Liquidity Account"), securing the Obligations, and (ii) on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter during the Term, Assignor makes an additional deposit into the Liquidity Account such that the total amount on deposit equals the first amounts payable to Assignees by Assignor from Included Product Payments pursuant to Section 2.02(b)(ii) for each of the next eight (8) calendar quarters, including the quarter in which such Business Day occurs. Assignees shall be entitled to exercise all rights as secured parties with respect to the Liquidity Account upon any default in the payment or performance of the Obligations, including the application of amounts in the Liquidity Account to due but unpaid Obligations. The application by Assignees of amounts in the Liquidity Account to the payment of any due but unpaid Obligations, including without limitation, the payment of any amounts due to Assignees from Assignor from Included Product Payments pursuant to Section 2.02(b), shall not cure any failure by Assignor or Guilford to make directly such payments. Upon thirty (30) days prior written notice, Assignor may request that Assignees release their security interest in the Liquidity Account. Upon such request, the Assignees shall release their security interest in the Liquidity Account upon their determination, in their reasonable discretion, that as of the date of release, no Purchase Option Event or Notice Event has occurred and no Purchase Option Event is reasonably expected to occur as a result of such release, including, without limitation, an event described in clause (iii) of the definition of Purchase Option Event. Upon the Assignees' release of their interest in the Liquidity Account, this Section 5.07(h) shall be of no further effect. During any period of the Term prior to the release of the Liquidity Account by Assignees, it shall be an immediate Purchase Option Event if during any calendar quarter, Assignor fails to pay to Assignees the minimum amounts specified in Section 2.02(b)(ii). (i) Without in any manner limiting its obligations under Section 5.13, Guilford agrees that to the extent that Assignor does not pay any amount due to Assignees under this Section 5.07, Guilford will promptly pay or cause Assignor to pay such amounts.
