5.3.1                        Except as otherwise set forth in Section 5.2.1, MGI shall assume and be legally responsible, and agrees, to use Diligent Efforts to perform all further Development of the Licensed Products and obtain such regulatory approvals, including Marketing Authorizations and pricing and reimbursement approval, as may be necessary to Commercialize the Licensed Products throughout the Major Countries; provided that (i) such obligation of MGI to use Diligent Efforts for indications other than MDS and AML shall not apply unless there is clinical data that demonstrates a reasonable potential that a Licensed Product will have clinical efficacy in the treatment of the indication and (ii) such obligation for MGI to use Diligent Efforts to Develop Licensed Products shall additionally be subject to Section 5.3.3 below. With respect to each of the Additional Indications, however, MGI shall use Diligent Efforts to identify a Licensed Product that has the potential for clinical efficacy for the Additional Indication. All Development of Licensed Products shall be performed by MGI in accordance with applicable laws, rules and regulations. Without limiting the foregoing, MGI shall use at least Diligent Efforts to conduct such Development as is necessary or desirable for, and to obtain, regulatory approvals for Licensed Products, consistent with MGI’s Commercialization Plan established in accordance with this Agreement. It is understood and agreed that all Development costs that SuperGen incurs in performing the Development for which it has retained responsibility or control pursuant to Section 5.2, and all other Development for the Licensed Products in the Territory, shall, as between the Parties, be at the sole cost and expense of MGI commencing with the date on which this Agreement is signed.

5.3.2                        Minimum Development Costs. MGI shall expend, no less than fifteen million US dollars (US$15,000,000) in Development Costs in the first thirty six (36) months of Effective Date of this Agreement, including any costs reimbursed to SuperGen pursuant to the provisions of Section 5.2.1 for the period from the date of signing of this Agreement through the Effective Date.

5.3.3                        Development of Certain Licensed Products. MGI’s obligation in Section 5.3.1 above to use Diligent Efforts to Develop and obtain Marketing Authorizations for Licensed Products shall not include the obligation to use Diligent Efforts to Develop and obtain Marketing Authorizations for a Licensed Product in which the active ingredient is a Decitabine [*] or which comprises a [*] formulation of Decitabine unless such Licensed Product provides a commercial advantage over the Existing Licensed Product. Additionally, MGI’s obligation in Section 5.3.1 to use Diligent Efforts to Develop and obtain Marketing Authorizations shall include Licensed Products that become covered by a Licensed Patent; provided that either (i) the Licensed Product provides a commercial advantage over commercially feasible non-infringing alternative Competing Products that treat the same indication as the Licensed Product or (ii) there are no other commercially feasible non-infringing alternative Competing Products that treat the same indication as the Licensed Product. As used above, “commercial advantage” shall mean better bioavailability or adsorption; better toxicity, metabolic, distribution, or excretion profile or characteristics; or better efficacy, ease of administration, stability, solubility, Manufacturability, or the like. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for each Licensed Product of the type described in this

18

Section 5.3.3, MGI shall use Diligent Efforts to evaluate whether or not Licensed Products have such a commercial advantage.

19

customary confidentiality restrictions; and (iii) the exercise of its rights upon termination as set forth in Article 15 below.

5.4                                 Records; Reports.

6.1  Diligence. MGI shall use Diligent Efforts to establish, qualify, validate and maintain sufficient Manufacturing facilities and capacity to manufacture Licensed Products and meet worldwide demand. The Parties acknowledge that MGI will have Licensed Products manufactured on its behalf by a Third Party manufacturer.. SuperGen shall reasonably consult with MGI regarding the identification and commercial scale up of such Third Party manufacturers as mutually agreed and provided that MGI reimburses SuperGen for the costs and expenses thereof.

Qualification of a second source for the Manufacture of Decitabine and the Licensed Products shall begin no later than the first Marketing Authorization of the Existing Licensed Product. Such qualification shall include: identifying a non-Affiliate Third Party that is independent of the primary Manufacturer of the Licensed Products and that is capable of, and willing to, supply the Licensed Products in quantities sufficient for meeting worldwide demand.

6.4  Inspections. If any facilities related to a Licensed Product, or a component or raw material therefor, are to be inspected by a Regulatory Authority, MGI shall promptly notify SuperGen of the inspection in advance. MGI shall provide the JSC with a written report of any such inspection, noting with specificity any records or documents reviewed by the regulatory inspector, and including copies of any FDA 483s (or their foreign equivalent) or written communications provided by any Regulatory Authority relating to such inspection. MGI shall  provide copies of all communications to and from any Regulatory Authority relating thereto to the JSC. When a copy of a document or record is supplied to an inspector on request, that fact will be noted in the report. The inspected party shall keep copies of each of these records and documents in a separate inspection file and, on the request of SuperGen, will provide copies of these documents and records to SuperGen. MGI shall ensure that agreements with contract manufacturers and other Third Parties require that such entities cooperate in such manner with respect to such inspections. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 6.4 shall apply only if SuperGen retains obligations to supply Decitabine to Third Parties under the Third Party Agreements.

6.5  Supply of Decitabine Samples. Upon request of SuperGen, MGI shall supply to SuperGen once in each calendar year, at MGI’s direct cost for providing such product, and at SuperGen’s expense, SuperGen’s requirements for Decitabine sufficient to fulfill its obligations under existing Third Parties agreements that MGI has not assumed responsibility for pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.8, in addition to 100 grams of decitabine API per year, 100 grams of C-137 Starting Material per year and 100 grams of Isolated Intermediate per year and such additional quantities as reasonably requested by SuperGen for SuperGen’s internal use. SuperGen shall be entitled to purchase its requirements of Decitabine and Licensed Products directly from MGI or its Third Party manufacturer, if any. If MGI elects to manufacture Licensed Product itself (rather than through a Third Party), MGI’s obligations to supply Decitabine  shall continue until the earlier of (i) two (2) years following expiration or termination (or partial expiration or termination) of this Agreement, or (ii) such time as SuperGen establishes its own direct supply of Decitabine from a Third Party. If MGI elects to manufacture through a Third Party, then MGI’s obligations to supply Decitabine to SuperGen shall continue until SuperGen establishes its own direct supply of Decitabine from MGI’s Third Party manufacturer.

7.             COMMERCIALIZATION

7.1  Commercialization. MGI shall be responsible for, and agrees to use Diligent Efforts to, Manufacture and otherwise Commercialize the Licensed Products in each of the Major

Countries; provided that, without limiting the terms of Section 5.3 above, with respect to indications other than MDS and AML, and with respect to Licensed Products of the type described in Section 5.3.3 above, the foregoing obligation to use Diligent Efforts shall apply only if a Marketing Authorization is obtained for the applicable Licensed Product. It is understood and agreed that all Manufacture and other Commercialization efforts for Licensed Products in the Territory shall, as between the Parties, be at the sole cost and expense of MGI.

7.2                                 Forecasts. No later than forty five (45) days prior to the beginning of each calendar year, MGI shall provide to SuperGen a copy of good faith, internal forecasts, that are no less optimistic than any forecast provided to its board or other managing authority, of the reasonably projected sales of each Licensed Product to end user customers in each country of the Territory during such calendar year where such Licensed Product is expected to be sold, including sales expected to be made by Affiliates and Licensees, broken down into calendar quarters, all consistent with MGI’s obligations under this Agreement. The first such forecast for each Licensed Product and country shall be provided for the calendar year in which the First Commercial Sale is projected to occur in such country, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and shall indicate the projected time of First Commercial Sale.

7.3                                 Sales Force. MGI shall deploy a combined sales force of no less than 55 FTEs, all of whom shall be employed by MGI as part of its full time sales force, dedicated to marketing and promoting the Licensed Products in the U.S. in accordance with the Commercialization Plan. MGI agrees to not co-promote or co-market the Licensed Products in the U.S. with another pharmaceutical company, without the prior written consent of SuperGen. MGI shall establish and maintain a high quality training program, and each sales representative shall be trained and informed consistent with the use of Diligent Efforts. The sales representatives shall be compensated so as to provide sales incentives (or other variable pay components) that are consistent with those provided by MGI in connection with its other highest priority products with a view to maximizing the market penetration of the Licensed Products. If SuperGen notifies MGI that it believes certain sales representatives may (i) have violated any laws or regulations or (ii) be damaging relationships with health care professionals or damaging the Licensed Product brand, or (iii) failed to comply with this Agreement, MGI shall promptly use Diligent Efforts to evaluate and resolve such issue.

7.4                                 Sales Materials. Any marketing and promotional materials created or used by MGI, its Affiliates and Licensees for the Licensed Products shall be appropriate to the Marketing Authorization for the Licensed Products in the respective country, and consistent with MGI’s Territory-wide profile for the Licensed Products.

7.5                                 Reporting Adverse Drug Reactions/Experiences. Except as required prior to transfer of responsibility for the Existing Licensed Product to MGI under Section 5.2.1 to permit SuperGen to comply with its regulatory obligations, as between the Parties, MGI shall be solely responsible for the collection, investigation, and reporting of information concerning adverse drug

22

reactions, Licensed Product quality and Licensed Product complaints, sufficient to comply with the applicable laws and regulations of the relevant countries and authorities with respect to the Licensed Products. MGI shall ensure that its Affiliates and Licensees comply with such reporting obligations. These reporting obligations shall apply to non-serious adverse events as well, which shall mean adverse events that must be reported under the laws, rules, regulations that are applicable in the particular country. MGI shall keep SuperGen fully informed about all serious adverse drug reactions of which MGI, its Affiliates, or Licensees becomes aware or is informed regarding the Licensed Products.

7.6  Potential Hazards. MGI shall inform SuperGen as soon as possible but no later than within forty-eight (48) hours of its receipt of any information that (i) indicates or suggests a potential material liability for either Party to a Third Party in the Territory arising in connection with a Licensed Product; (ii) concerns suspected or actual tampering or contamination or other material problems in the Territory with respect to a Licensed Product; (iii) is reasonably likely to lead to a recall or market withdrawal in the Territory of a Licensed Product; or (iv) concerns any ongoing or potential FDA or other Regulatory Authority investigation, inspection, detention, seizure or injunction in the Territory involving a Licensed Product, including the receipt of any warning letter, material untitled letter or any equivalent communication from a Regulatory Authority in the Territory relating to a Licensed Product.

Before taking any action with respect to a recall or market withdrawal, to the extent possible, MGI, its Affiliates, and Licensees shall provide SuperGen with a reasonable opportunity to review, comment on and consult with respect to such recall or market withdrawal, and MGI, its Affiliates, and Licensees shall consider in good faith any comments or suggestions of SuperGen. As between the Parties, MGI shall be solely responsible for all recalls and market withdrawals, provided that MGI shall keep SuperGen fully informed with respect thereto and shall provide SuperGen with reasonable opportunities to comment with respect to the activities associated therewith. As between the Parties, all recalls and market withdrawals shall be at the sole cost and expense of MGI.

7.8  Diligence Milestones.

7.8.1                        The Commercialization Plan shall include the Development and Commercialization milestones and dates for completion thereof (each a “Completion Date”) that are described in and otherwise established in accordance with this Section 7.8 (such milestones and Completion Dates, collectively  the “Diligence Milestones”). Exhibit 7.8 sets forth the Diligence Milestones for MDS and AML. In addition to such Diligence Milestones, with respect to each Licensed Product for which a Marketing Authorization is obtained in a Major Country, there shall be an additional Diligence Milestone that MGI achieve First Commercial Sale of the Licensed Product in the Major Country no later than ninety (90) days after the Marketing Authorization is obtained (or if later and required in the Major Country, after approval of pricing and/or reimbursement is obtained for sales of the Licensed Product) (a “Launch Milestone”). If MGI fails to achieve such a Launch Milestone by the ninety (90) day period following receipt of Marketing Authorization as set forth in

23

the sentence above, and if a milestone payment is specified in Section 3.1 for the related Diligence Milestone and has not previously been paid, then MGI shall pay to SuperGen within thirty (30) days after such failure the milestone payment set forth in Section 3.1 for the missed Launch Milestone and shall continue to use Diligent Efforts to meet the other milestones set forth in Section 3.1.

7.8.2                        The Parties agree that, without limiting any other right or remedy of SuperGen hereunder SuperGen shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in its entirety (in the same manner as if MGI had materially breached this Agreement) pursuant to Section 14.3 if MGI has not achieved First Commercial Sale of a Licensed Product in a Major Country by December 31, 2008; provided, however, that  SuperGen’s right to terminate pursuant to this Section 7.8.2 above, shall be tolled so long as at least one Phase III trial, or equivalent, for a Licensed Product for a Major Country (a “Registration Trial”) is ongoing on December 31, 2008, and MGI is using, and continues to use, Diligent Efforts to complete such Registration Trial(s) successfully and obtain a Marketing Authorization based upon such Registration Trial(s). SuperGen’s right to terminate under this Section 7.8.2 shall cease to be effective upon the earliest of such time as a Marketing Authorization in a Major Country is obtained on one of the Registration Trials that was ongoing on December 31, 2008, in which case SuperGen shall have no right to terminate under this Section 7.8.2. With respect to each of the Registration Trials in Major Countries that are ongoing on December 31, 2008, if either the Regulatory Authority issues a non-approvable letter or the equivalent, or the results produced are insufficient to obtain a Marketing Authorizations in a Major Country, or MGI otherwise stops using Diligent Efforts to obtain a Marketing Authorization in a Major Country, SuperGen also shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in its entirety (in the same manner as if MGI had materially breached this Agreement) pursuant to Section 14.3. Nothing in this Section 7.8.2 shall be construed to limit any other obligations of MGI under this Agreement or any other rights that SuperGen may have to terminate this Agreement (such as based upon a breach of the terms of this Agreement, other than this Section 7.8.2).

7.8.3                        All payments made pursuant to this Section 7.8 shall be non-refundable and non-creditable, except that if a payment is made for a milestone under this Section 7.8, MGI shall not be required to make a payment under Section 3.1 for the same milestone if such milestone is subsequently achieved by MGI. No payment for a milestone under this Section 7.8, however, shall be credited against the payment due for any other milestone.

8. PAYMENTS; BOOKS AND RECORDS

8.3                                 Royalty Reports and Payments. Commencing with the earlier of (i) the first sale of a Licensed Product hereunder or (ii) the last calendar quarter of calendar year 2005, MGI shall make quarterly written reports to SuperGen within sixty (60) days after the end of each calendar

24

quarter, stating in each such report, separately for MGI, its Affiliates, and Licensees, the number, description, and aggregate Net Sales, by country, of each Licensed Product sold during the calendar quarter (or stating that no sales have occurred if such is the case). Concurrently with making each such report, MGI shall pay to SuperGen the royalties due in accordance with Section 3.3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the report and payment described above shall be due within forty-five (45) days after the end of the calendar quarter for Net Sales based upon sales within the United States.

This Section 8.5 shall in no way limit any other remedies available to SuperGen.

8.6                                 Currency Conversion. All amounts set forth in this Agreement, or in any Exhibit, are in U.S. Dollars. If any currency conversion shall be required in connection with the calculation of royalties or other payments hereunder, such conversion shall be made using the exchange rates for the foreign currency, in U.S. Dollars, quoted for current transactions reported in the Exchange Rate  table setting forth the foreign exchange mid-range rates in The Wall Street Journal for the last business day of the calendar quarter to which such payment pertains.

8.7                                 Taxes. All payments required hereunder shall be without deduction or withholding for or on account of any taxes, duties, or similar governmental charge imposed by a jurisdiction except that, subject to the following sentence, SuperGen shall remain responsible for all taxes imposed on its own net income. Withholding taxes, if any, shall be the sole responsibility of MGI, without impacting the amounts to be received by SuperGen hereunder. However, in the event that SuperGen realizes a reduction in its tax liability by reason of such withholding taxes or other amounts paid by MGI, MGI shall receive a credit against royalties or other amounts payable to SuperGen hereunder equal to the reduction in SuperGen’s tax liability. MGI shall provide SuperGen with a certificate evidencing its separate payment of such withholding taxes pursuant to this Section 8.7.

8.8                                 Records; Inspection. MGI shall keep, and require its Affiliates and Licensees to keep, complete, true and accurate books of accounts and records for the purpose of determining the amounts payable pursuant to and other compliance with this Agreement.

Such records will be open for inspection during such five (5) year period by representatives of SuperGen. Such inspections may be made no more than once each calendar year, at reasonable times and on reasonable notice,

25

provided that an additional audit may be conducted in a calendar year each time a non-compliance is identified; and provided further that SuperGen shall be permitted to re-audit a period that it has already audited hereunder only if SuperGen becomes aware of information not previously known to its executive management that shows that an inaccuracy in payment may have occurred.. The representative shall be subject to a reasonable confidentiality agreement prior to commencing any such inspection. Inspections conducted under this Section 8.8 shall be at the expense of SuperGen, unless a variation or error producing an underpayment in amounts payable exceeding five percent (5%) of the amount paid by MGI for the most recent twelve months immediately prior to the date of the audit, or other material breach of this Agreement, is established by such inspection, whereupon all costs relating to the inspection for such period shall be paid by MGI to SuperGen. Additionally, all unpaid amounts that are discovered by any audit shall be paid to SuperGen promptly upon conclusion of the audit, together with interest on such unpaid amounts at the rate set forth in Section 8.5 above.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall a Party by virtue of its joint ownership rights retain the right to approve or consent to a Change of Control of a Party hereto. SuperGen shall have the exclusive right to apply for Patent Rights with respect to all Decitabine Improvements, and MGI shall inform SuperGen, and require that its Affiliates and Licensees inform SuperGen, thereof. MGI, its Affiliates, and Licensees shall treat Decitabine Improvements as the Confidential Information of SuperGen, and shall not make any disclosure or use thereof without first giving SuperGen a reasonable opportunity to file Patent Rights covering the Decitabine Improvement.

9.2  Patent Prosecution. SuperGen (and its designees) shall have the first right to conduct all future activities with respect to the preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance (including interferences, re-examinations, reissues, oppositions and the like) of the Patent Rights in the Licensed Patents, of jointly owned Patent Rights, and of Patent Rights with respect to Decitabine Improvements, and the Parties shall share equally the costs and expenses associated with SuperGen performing such activities. MGI shall reimburse SuperGen for one half of such costs and expenses upon invoice. If SuperGen decides, in its sole discretion, to abandon an issued patent or pending patent application within the scope of the foregoing, then it shall so notify MGI in writing at least sixty (60) days prior to the date on which the next action or filing is due to be taken with respect thereto (or such shorter time as is reasonably practical for deadlines not extendable beyond 90 days), and shall give MGI a reasonable opportunity, at MGI’s sole expense, to assume responsibility for prosecuting and maintaining the Patent Right.

9.3  Prosecution. On request of the Party performing the preparation, filing, prosecution, or maintenance of any Patent Rights in accordance with the foregoing, the other Party will reasonably cooperate with the prosecuting Party in connection therewith, without demanding any further consideration therefor, including, without limitation, executing and filing applications, registrations, powers of attorney, oaths and other appropriate documents, providing appropriate consents and/or authorizations, and joining in any administrative or judicial action relating to the prosecution or maintenance of any Patent Rights.

At MGI’s request, SuperGen shall either authorize MGI to act as SuperGen’s agent for the purpose of making any application for any extensions of the term of Licensed Patents and provide reasonable assistance therefor to MGI or shall diligently seek to obtain such extensions, in either event, at the Parties hereto shared expense. MGI shall cooperate reasonably with SuperGen with respect to extensions sought by SuperGen.

9.5  Third Party Infringement Claims.

Subject to Article 13, the Party subject to such Infringement Action shall have the exclusive right to defend and control the defense thereof (including the conclusion of a potential settlement, but limited to the rights granted pursuant to this Agreement) using counsel of its own

27

choice,and also subject to Article 13 the Infringement Action shall be at such Party’s own expense; provided, however, that the Party not responsible under the foregoing for defending such Infringement Action may participate in the defense and/or settlement thereof at its own expense with counsel of its choice. The Party defending the Infringement Action agrees to keep the other Party hereto reasonably informed of all material developments in connection with any such Infringement Action. MGI agrees not to make admissions regarding infringement by the Licensed Product of any Patent Rights outside of the Licensed Patents, without obtaining the prior written consent of SuperGen. Nothing in this Section 9.5 shall be construed as limiting the obligations of indemnification under Article 13.

In such event, as between the Parties, SuperGen shall have the initial right (but not the obligation) to enforce the Licensed Patents with respect to such infringement, or defend any declaratory judgment action with respect thereto (for purposes of this Section 9.6, an “Enforcement Action”).

9.6.1                        Initiating Enforcement Actions. In the event that SuperGen fails to initiate an Enforcement Action to enforce the Licensed Patents against an infringement by a Third Party product in a country in the Territory, which infringement consists of the manufacture, sale or use in such country of a product that treats an indication for which MGI has received a Marketing Authorization hereunder, within one hundred twenty (120) days of a request by MGI to initiate such Enforcement Action, MGI may initiate an Enforcement Action against such infringement. SuperGen shall cooperate in such Enforcement Action at MGI’s expense, provided that MGI indemnifies SuperGen against any liability arising therefrom. The Party initiating or defending any such Enforcement Action shall keep the other Party hereto reasonably informed of the progress of any such Enforcement Action, and such other Party shall have the right to participate with counsel of its own choice and at its own expense.

9.6.2                        Enforcement. With respect to Enforcement Actions initiated by SuperGen in a country in the Territory, MGI shall pay one half (1/2) of the costs and expenses (including attorneys’ and professional fees) incurred by SuperGen in connection with such Enforcement Action. Any recovery received as a result of any Enforcement Action to enforce Licensed Patents pursuant to this Section 9.6 by either Party shall be used first to reimburse the Parties for the costs and expenses (including attorneys’ and professional fees) incurred in connection with such Enforcement Action, and the remainder of the recovery shall be shared (to the extent the same represents damages from sales of Licensed Products within the Territory) equally between the Parties; provided, however, that if SuperGen initiates the Enforcement Action and MGI does not agree to pay one half (1/2) of the costs and expenses incurred by SuperGen therein, MGI shall not be entitled to any amount recovered in such Enforcement Action.

With respect to the Third Party Agreements that will be assigned to MGI as identified in Exhibit 1.46, each such Third Party Agreement is and shall be transferred and assigned by SuperGen to MGI, and MGI hereby assumes, and shall assume, all responsibilities, obligations, and liabilities of SuperGen under the Third Party Agreements. With respect to the Third Party Agreements relating to the Development or Commercialization of Decitabine that SuperGen will retain and not assign to MGI, as identified in Exhibit 1.46,  MGI does and shall assume and agrees to perform all of SuperGen’s responsibilities, liabilities and obligations under such agreements. The Parties shall cooperate reasonably after the Effective Date as necessary to obtain all necessary consents, waivers and approvals as are required under the assigned Third Party Agreements in order to effect such transfer promptly after the Effective Date. The Parties acknowledge and agree that should SuperGen become aware that it has inadvertently or otherwise omitted a Third Party agreement specific to the Development or Commercialization of a Licensed Product from Exhibit 1.46, the Parties will discuss in good faith and amend Exhibit 1.46 to include such Third Party agreement subject to MGI’s review and acceptance of such agreements (as described below), and upon acceptance, the provisions of this Section 9.8 shall apply to such Third Party Agreement as if included as of the date of signing of this Agreement, provided, however, that if MGI does not accept such Third Party agreement, MGI shall not be responsible for compliance and performance of such Third Party agreement. It is understood and agreed that SuperGen’s communication of the agreement’s basic purpose and scope shall be sufficient for MGI to review and decide whether to accept inclusion of such Third Party agreements following the date of signing hereof. With respect to the Supply Agreements, SuperGen will use reasonable efforts to seek a consent to assignment of the Manufacturing Agreement and such other amendments to its other agreements with Pharmachemie B.V. as may be prudent in SuperGen’s business judgement to ensure SuperGen’s compliance with the terms of such agreements, it being understood that “reasonable efforts” shall not include payment of any monetary or other consideration. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.8 or any other provision of this Agreement, if consent to assignment is not obtained with respect to the Manufacturing Agreement within ninety (90) days following the Effective Date, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith terms and conditions for SuperGen’s supply of Decitabine to MGI that (x) are consistent with the Manufacturing Agreement; (y) ensure that SuperGen is able to comply with its obligations under the Manufacturing Agreement its other agreements with Pharmachemie B.V.; and (z) provide for reimbursement by MGI of SuperGen’s Supply Costs.

For a period of three (3) years after the Effective Date, each Party shall not, without the other Party’s prior written consent, solicit the employment of any person that is employed by such other Party or its Affiliate; provided that such restriction shall not prevent either Party from making solicitations of employment that are directed generally at Third Parties, whether or not employed by such other Party, and shall not prevent the hire of individuals responding to such general solicitations of employment.

16.14                     Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with all the Exhibits hereto constitute the full and entire understanding and agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, whether oral or written, of the Parties with respect thereto, including any term sheet.
