negotiate the terms and conditions under which Orion would be willing to grant GTX a license and
other support from Orion to conduct the Other Activities that are the subject of such notice. If
GTX so notifies Orion of its interest, then the Parties shall negotiate exclusively with each other
on a binding, commercially reasonable license agreement under which Orion would grant GTX a license
to conduct such Other Activities and Orion would provide other related support to GTX, provided
that GTX’s right to conduct such Other Activity shall be subject to and conditioned by, and become

(30) day period, or if the Parties, despite conducting good faith negotiations, are unable to

shall have no rights with respect to such Other Activities, and Orion or its Affiliate shall have
the right to itself conduct such Other Activities or to grant to such Third Party a license and/or
other right to conduct such Other Activities without further obligation to GTX with respect
thereto.
(v) Any deadlines provided in this Section 2.1.5(b) may be extended by mutual written
agreement of the Parties. GTX’s rights under this Section 2.1.5(b) shall apply on an indication by
indication basis.

2.3 United States Government Rights. In the event it is determined that any GTX Patent Rights
were developed with the support of the United States Government or any agency thereof (the
“Government”), the Government will retain rights in the GTX Patent Rights as set forth in Title 35
U.S.C. §200 et seq. All rights herein granted to GTX are subject to any such rights held by the
Government and further subject to any restrictions or obligations that may be imposed by the
Government pursuant to such rights, at such time that it is determined.
2.4 Orion’s Right of First Negotiation.
2.4.1 Whereas Orion has considerable knowledge and experience in the marketing, sales and
distribution of pharmaceutical products in, inter alia, Scandinavia (which term shall for purpose
of this Section 2.4 comprise the countries of Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden), GTX undertakes
to regard Orion as its preferential partner for the marketing, sales and distribution of the
Product in Scandinavia for use in the Field. Consequently, GTX grants, and shall cause its
Affiliates and Unaffiliated Sublicensees who receive a sublicense under the license granted to GTX
pursuant to Section 2.1.1 in Scandinavia to grant, to Orion a right of first negotiation to
negotiate in good faith an agreement(s) under commercially reasonable terms and conditions
regarding the marketing, sales and/or distribution by Orion of the Product in Scandinavia for use
in the Field, with the express understanding that such commercially reasonable terms and conditions
shall not comprise an obligation to develop and register the Product for use in the Field in any
country of Scandinavia.
2.4.2 Within thirty (30) days after Orion’s receipt of a first written offer from GTX
regarding commercially reasonable terms and conditions governing such rights, Orion shall notify
GTX in writing if it wishes to negotiate the terms and conditions under which Orion could obtain
the rights contemplated in this Section 2.4. Should Orion so exercise such right, the Parties shall
negotiate exclusively with each other and in good faith the commercially reasonable terms and
conditions for a license and distribution agreement for the marketing, sales and distribution by
Orion of the Product in Scandinavia for use in the Field, such negotiations to be completed within
one hundred and eighty (180) days from the date of Orion’s notification to GTX. Any deadlines may
be extended by mutual agreement upon reasonable request. If Orion fails to provide written
notification to GTX by the end of the thirty (30) day period; Orion notifies GTX that it does not
wish to enter into negotiations; or the Parties, despite conducting good faith negotiations, are
unable to finalize the material commercial terms of agreement within such one hundred and eighty
(180) day period (any such event, a “Termination of the Orion Right”), Orion shall have no further
right under this Agreement to market, sell and distribute the Product in Scandinavia and GTX shall
be free to offer to or enter into an agreement with any Third Party or any GTX Affiliate with
respect to such activities after the Termination of the Orion Right occurs.
2.4.3 In the event that GTX’s Unaffiliated Sublicensee for Product for use in the Field in the
USA does not obtain the right and license to sell, have sold, import, market and
distribute the Product in the Field in Europe at the time of execution of the sublicense
agreement for the Product for use in the Field in the USA, then Orion shall, on the terms and
conditions of Sections 2.4.1 and 2.4.2, have a right of first negotiation to negotiate in good
faith an agreement(s) under commercially reasonable terms and conditions regarding the marketing,
sales and/or distribution of the Product for use in the Field in Europe.

activities with respect to Products for use in the Field that are necessary for supporting
Regulatory Approval of Products or expanding the indications for Products within the Field. GTX
shall, upon Orion’s request therefor, provide Orion with written updates of any and all activities
undertaken by or on behalf of it pursuant to this Section 2.5, and with the results thereof in
reasonable detail.
2.6 Prohibited Actions. During the Term of this Agreement, Orion shall not grant any rights
to any Third Party that are inconsistent with the licenses granted to GTX pursuant to Section
2.1.1.

Orion the lesser of, on a country by country basis, either (i) [ * ] of such Royalty Income; or
(ii) [ * ] of such GTX Unaffiliated Sublicensees, provided, however, that in no event shall the

Orion under Section 3.1.3 and the payments due to Orion on Royalty Income pursuant to Section
3.1.4, respectively, shall be reduced to [ * ] of the amount otherwise due to Orion pursuant to
either Section 3.1.3 or 3.1.4, as applicable, with regard to such country with such reduction to be
applicable to the immediately succeeding calendar quarter only.
3.2 Non-Refundability. All milestone payments GTX makes to Orion pursuant to Section 3.1.1
shall be non-refundable once paid. However, if this Agreement is terminated for any reason prior to
a given milestone payment becoming due or if the events specified for a given milestone payment do
not occur, then GTX shall have no obligation to make such milestone payment.
3.3 Royalty Reports and Payments. Commencing with the first Calendar Quarter in which GTX,
its Affiliates or a GTX Unaffiliated Sublicensees make the First Commercial Sale of the Product,
GTX shall provide Orion with a written report of Net Sales and Royalty Income on a

months. Concurrently with the submission of each such written report, GTX shall pay or cause to be
paid to Orion the total amount of royalties shown to be due thereon.
3.4 Currency. GTX shall make all Upfront and Milestone Income and royalty payments to Orion
pursuant to Section 3.1 in U.S. Dollars except that GTX shall make all cost of goods payments to
Orion pursuant to Section 13 in euros. Where royalty payments are made, payments earned shall be

quoted in the Wall Street Journal rate on the last business day of the quarterly period in which
the royalty payments were earned.
3.5 No Royalties Payable Between Affiliates. No royalties shall be payable to a Party on
sales between the other Party, its Affiliates or between the Party’s Affiliates.
3.6 No Multiple Royalties. No multiple royalties shall be payable because the Product, its

4. LIAISON
Representatives of the Parties shall meet bi-annually or as otherwise agreed to review
development, sales and marketing activities for the Product for use in the Field in the GTX
Territory, with the exact dates and locations of such meetings to be mutually agreed upon. Such
meetings shall alternate between GTX’s and Orion’s offices or be at other mutually agreed upon
locations, with each Party to be responsible for the travel and living costs and expenses of its
own representatives attending such meetings.
5. PAYMENT, RECORD KEEPING AND AUDIT RIGHTS
5.1 Method of Payment. In the event of any required tax withholding, the paying Party will
provide the receiving Party with any relevant certificates or documents required for national,
state or local tax credit and reporting purposes. Payments hereunder shall not be creditable
against any other amounts payable by a Party under this Agreement, except as otherwise expressly
stated herein. All payments shall be made by bank wire transfer (e.g., “SWIFT” or other comparable
electronic transfer method) to such account(s) as the receiving Party shall designate beforehand in
writing to the paying Party. Payments shall be deemed paid once funds are freely available to the
receiving Party at such account(s).
5.2 Late Payments. The Party entitled to payment hereunder reserves the right to charge the
paying Party interest on any amounts owing from the paying Party which are overdue by more than
fourteen (14) business days at a rate of [ * ] per annum, or the maximum rate allowed by law,

14.
either Party
(but not more frequently than once in any calendar year), the requesting Party may retain an
independent certified public accountant, subject to approval by the other Party (which approval
shall not be unreasonably withheld), to review such records to verify the accuracy of the payments
made or payable hereunder. Such accountant shall be required to execute a confidentiality agreement
in a form reasonably acceptable to the audited Party and shall report to the auditing Party only
the amount of any underpayment or overcharge. Within ten (10) business days after completion of
such review, the Parties shall reconcile any underpayment or overcharge. The auditing Party shall
pay the cost of any review of records conducted at its request under this Section. However, if the
review establishes underpayment or overcharge by the audited Party of over three percent (3%)
during the period of the review, the audited Party shall promptly reimburse the auditing Party for
the fees and expenses of the accountant. Such audit rights may be exercised by the Parties only
with respect to records for the current calendar year and the preceding two (2) calendar years.
6. GTX PRODUCT MARKETING AND SALES ACTIVITIES
6.1 Minimum Sales Requirements for USA.
6.1.1 Levels of MSRs. GTX shall have annual minimum sales requirements for Product for use in
the Field (“MSRs”) in the second year and fourth year after Product Launch in the USA equal to [ * ] of GTX’s annual Product Sales Projections (as defined below) in the USA. To establish such
projections for the purpose of the foregoing sentence, GTX shall provide to Orion annual Product
Sales Projections in the USA within ninety (90) days after GTX, its Affiliate or Unaffiliated
Sublicensee completes the last pivotal clinical trial as provided in the GTX Final Development and
Registration Plan for Product in the USA. The Parties shall set forth in Schedule D GTX’s MSR
obligations within sixty (60) days after GTX provides such projections, and such MSRs shall be made
a part hereof. Beginning with the [ * ] year after Product Launch in USA for use in the Field
until the end of the Term, GTX shall have an annual MSR equal to [ * ] of the average of GTX’s
Actual Product Sales (as defined below) in the USA for Product in the Field for the [ * ].
“Product Sales Projections” means GTX’s good faith estimates of the target patient population in a
given year for Products in the Field, multiplied by the price per tablet of Product for use in the
Field that GTX plans to be able to charge during the [ * ] after Product Launch. “Actual
Product Sales” means GTX’s, its Affiliate’s or a GTX Unaffiliated Sublicensee’s actual Net Sales of
Product in the Field during a given year in the USA.
For example, in year [ * ] if the target patient population is [ * ] subjects in the
Field and the Product would be consumed [ * ] for the Field at a hypothetical price of [ * ],
GTX’s Product Sales Projections would [ * ]. The hypothetical price for a tablet set forth above
is hypothetical and was only used for the sole purpose of explaining the mechanism for calculating
the Product Sales Projections and MSRs. Nothing contained in such example shall be so construed to
deny the right of GTX to freely set its resale price of the Product.
6.1.2 Product Launch Date. “Product Launch in USA” shall be determined by the date on which
the Product has received Regulatory Approval and is commercially available in the USA as follows:
(i) if such date occurs during the first six (6) months of any calendar year (i.e., January 1-June
30), Product Launch in USA shall be deemed to have
[ * ] = | Certain confidential information contained in this document, marked by brackets, has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuantis pursuant to Rule 406 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. |
15.
occurred on January 1 of such calendar year, and
(ii) if such date occurs during the last six (6) months of any calendar year (i.e., July 1-December
31), Product Launch in USA shall be deemed to have occurred on January 1 of the following calendar
year.
6.1.3 Adjustment. GTX’s annual Product Sales Projections for the Field in the USA shall be
subject to adjustment by written agreement of the Parties, with a corresponding adjustment in the
MSRs, in the event of government intervention in given markets (including, but not limited to,
government mandated health care reforms, rebates or regulatory changes), failure to obtain (or
delay in obtaining) approval for a Product indication in the Field, or other events or causes
affecting the market for the Product for use in the Field beyond the control of GTX, including but
not limited to lower than anticipated pricing approvals measured on an aggregate basis throughout
USA; GTX Patent Rights and/or Orion Patent Rights invalidation, infringement or expiration; Product
safety and/or efficacy issues and/or major therapeutic advances materially affecting the market
potential for the Product for use in the Field (including but not limited to new surgical
procedures or introduction of new competitive products with superior safety and/or efficacy
profiles); or a Force Majeure event (as described in Section 26).
6.1.4 Failure to Achieve MSRs. If GTX’s annual Product Sales in USA for the Field are less
than the MSRs in any applicable calendar year, GTX shall, without prejudice to its payment
obligations under Section 3.1, pay Orion royalties corresponding to the “shortfall” between the
actual royalties paid by GTX for such year and the royalties which would have been payable pursuant
to Section 3.1 had GTX achieved the MSRs during such year. GTX’s payment of such “shortfall”
hereunder shall be Orion’s sole and exclusive remedy for GTX’s failure to achieve MSRs in USA for
such year. However, if GTX fails to pay such “shortfall,” then Orion may, without prejudice to its
right to such shortfall, also terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 20.2.2.
6.2 No Minimum Sales Requirements Outside of USA. GTX shall not have any MSRs with respect to
sale of the Product in any countries in GTX Territory outside of the USA.
6.3 Marketing and Sales Efforts in the Major Countries
6.3.1 Commercially Reasonable Obligation. On a country by country basis, subject to Sections
6.3 and 6.4, during the period commencing with Regulatory Approval in a Major Country, and for the
remainder of the Term, GTX, its Affiliate and/or a GTX Unaffiliated Sublicensee shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to promote, market, distribute and sell the Product for use in the
Field in the Major Countries. For purposes of this Section 6.3, “commercially reasonable” shall
mean using, in each of the Major Countries, an equivalent degree of effort as GTX, its Affiliate or
a GTX Unaffiliated Sublicensee would use to promote, market, distribute and sell a product of it
own that is of comparable market potential in the respective Major Countries during the same time
period (as determined by consideration of, without limitation, potential market, patent protection,
and availability of competitive products),
including but not limited to, engaging in the following activities (subject to any applicable
U.S. FDA restrictions or other applicable legal restrictions):
[ * ] = | Certain confidential information contained in this document, marked by brackets, has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuantis pursuant to Rule 406 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. |

(a) Using reasonable diligence to establish and maintain good business relationships with
hospitals, health systems, doctors and other medical professionals in accordance with standard and
customary practices in the Major Countries;
(b) Using commercially reasonable efforts to establish and maintain an adequate capacity of
sales personnel consisting of reasonably qualified personnel who have been certified, as trained by
GTX, its Affiliate or a GTX Unaffiliated Sublicensee, to promote and market the Product for use in
the Field in the Major Countries, and to provide such sales force with adequate sales and
promotional materials for the Product;
(c) Promoting and detailing the Product for use in the Field throughout the Major Countries,
provided that GTX, its Affiliate or a GTX Unaffiliated Sublicensee may, in its discretion use
relatively greater promotional and detailing efforts (i) in some Major Countries than it uses in
other of such countries, and (ii) in some parts of each Major Country than in other parts thereof,
consistent with its overall marketing plan; and further provided, however, that the foregoing shall
in no event be deemed to limit GTX’s its Affiliate or a GTX Unaffiliated Sublicensee overall
obligations under the first paragraph of this Section 6.3.1.
(d) Advertising the Product for use in the Field in professional journals and publications and
sponsoring or attending appropriate symposia, trade exhibitions and medical education programs in a
manner equivalent to that used for GTX’s, its Affiliate’s or a GTX Unaffiliated Sublicensee’s, as
applicable, own products of comparable market potential in such Major Country; and
(e) Formulating and using reasonable efforts to implement annual sales and marketing plans for
the Product for use in the Field in the Major Countries and providing copies of such plans to Orion
for review and comment, provided that Orion shall not have approval rights with respect to such
plans.
6.3.2 Sales Objectives and Other Factors for the USA. GTX and Orion shall agree in writing
upon annual target sales objectives for the Product for use in the Field in the USA, commencing
with the fourth calendar year after First Commercial Sale of the Product for use in the Field in
the USA, provided that such annual target sales objectives shall not be considered MSRs for any
purposes, but instead shall be used by the Parties for informational and planning purposes and
shall be one (1) factor, among others, to be considered in assessing whether GTX has complied with
its commercially reasonable obligations hereunder. GTX’s level of sales and marketing expenses for
the Product for use in the Field in the USA and events or causes affecting the market for the
Product for use in the Field beyond the control of GTX shall also be among the factors to be
considered in assessing whether GTX has complied with its commercially reasonable obligations
hereunder.
6.4 Product Launch
6.4.1 Timing of Launch. GTX shall use commercially reasonable efforts to launch the Product
for use in a given indication in the Field as soon as practical in every Major Country of the GTX
Territory where GTX, its Affiliates and/or GTX Unaffiliated Sublicensees have obtained Regulatory
Approval for such indication. Notwithstanding the foregoing, GTX, its
[ * ] = | Certain confidential information contained in this document, marked by brackets, has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuantis pursuant to Rule 406 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. |
17.
Affiliate or a GTX
Unaffiliated Sublicensee may, acting in good faith in the exercise of its reasonable business
judgment, determine either to delay the launch of the Product for use in a given indication in the
Field or not to launch the Product for use in a given indication in the Field in any given country
in the GTX Territory other than a Major Country, which decision to delay or not to launch shall not
be deemed a failure to use commercially reasonable efforts. Further, GTX’s, its Affiliates’ or a
GTX Unaffiliated Sublicensee’s decision to delay the launch of the Product for use in the Field in
any Major Country for up to six (6) months after GTX or its Affiliates have obtained Regulatory
Approval in such country, shall not be deemed a failure to use commercially reasonable efforts
pursuant to Section 6.3 to the extent that GTX can demonstrate that such delay was attributable to
bona fide business reasons affecting the Product.
6.4.2 Decisions Not to Launch. GTX shall promptly notify Orion in writing if GTX, its
Affiliate or a GTX Unaffiliated Sublicensee, as applicable, determines to delay the launch of the
Product for use in a given indication in the Field in any Major Country after obtaining Regulatory
Approval of Product therefor. If such decision is due to any reasons other than the potential for,
or the existence of, adverse business effects in such Major Country, then such decision shall be
deemed a material breach of this Agreement pursuant to Section 20.2.2 and GTX shall be subject to
the provisions of such Section within thirty days (30) after GTX’s decision not to launch in such
Major Country.
6.5 Marketing Costs and Expenses. Except as other-wise provided herein or as otherwise
mutually agreed by the Parties, GTX, its Affiliate or a GTX Unaffiliated Sublicensee shall bear all
costs and expenses connected with its marketing and sales activities for the Product for use in the
Field and its performance under this Agreement.
6.6 Marketing Plans and Reports.
6.6.1 Marketing Plans. GTX shall develop and provide to Orion by October 31 of each year
during the Term marketing and sales plans for the Product for each Major Country for the following
calendar year, commencing with the calendar year in which Regulatory Approval is obtained in each
respective country. Such plans shall include the projected Annual Net Sales and the projected
advertising and promotion budgets for such year, and shall not be applicable to the calculation of
MSRs pursuant to Section 6.1, for which GTX shall separately provide information.
6.6.2 Marketing and Sales Reports. GTX shall provide to Orion, within forty-five (45) days
after the end of each calendar year, a written marketing activities and sales report for each of
the Major Countries. The report shall include at least a description of sales, marketing and

contents of its DMFs to the other Party.
7.4.2 GTX Access to Data. During the Term, Orion shall provide GTX, within forty-five (45)
days of receipt of a written request from GTX specifying in detail the documentation, information

recognizes that Orion has obtained the Orion Product Approvals solely for the purpose of its
proprietary product Fareston(R), and that nothing herein shall be construed so as to obligate Orion
to maintain or cause to be maintained any Orion Product Approvals solely for allowing GTX, its

Orion shall not withdraw such Orion Product Approvals in the absence of commercially justifiable
reasons in relation to Fareston(R).

Section 7.1.2(a) and its obligations to manufacture and supply to GTX Orion Product upon one
hundred and twenty (120) days prior written notice to GTX, if either (I) Regulatory Approval has
not been granted for the Product for use in the Field in the USA by December 31, 2007, or (II) the
last Valid Claim included in the Orion Patent Rights in the USA expires (which the Parties
currently anticipate to occur in 2009) or is invalidated. Any such notice hereunder shall be given
no later than sixty (60) days after the occurrence of the applicable event giving rise to such
right, provided that GTX shall inform Orion in writing by December 31, 2007, whether or not
Regulatory Approval has been granted for the Product for use in the Field in the USA by such date.
The time for Orion to provide notice to GTX of its decision to exercise its right with regard to
the event described in item (I) shall be deemed to commence upon the receipt by Orion of such
notice from GTX, provided that nothing shall be construed so as to prevent Orion from exercising
its right with regard to the event described in item (I) if Orion finds out, either by itself or
through a Third Party that Regulatory Approval has not been granted for the Product for use in the
Field in the USA by December 31, 2007. Effective upon the date that GTX receives any notice from
Orion pursuant to this Section 7.6 and during the Term, Orion hereby grants GTX a contingent
license under the Orion Patent Rights and Orion Know-How and all other patents and patent
applications owned or controlled by Orion during the Term that relate to the manufacture, use or
sale of Toremifene or Orion Product (“Manufacturing Patents”) to make and have made Product for use
in the Field in the GTX Territory. Such license shall be exclusive with respect to Products for use
in the Field and in the North American Territory and Japan, and nonexclusive with respect to
Products for exclusive use in the Field in the ROW Territory. Orion shall as soon as practically
possible after providing any notice to GTX pursuant to this Section 7.6 provide GTX with such
then-existing manufacturing, process and quality control procedures, documentation and other
relevant know-how and information to the extent reasonably necessary to enable GTX to exercise its
manufacturing right pursuant to this Section 7.6 (hereinafter “Product Manufacturing Know-How”),
including without limitation providing up to ten (10) person-days of technology transfer assistance
at GTX’s site of manufacture of Product using Orion personnel skilled in such manufacturing
operations, at no charge to GTX.

At any time prior to December 31, 2007, GTX may propose to discuss whether Orion would be
willing either to commit to manufacture and supply to GTX Orion Product for a certain amount of
time to allow GTX to have uninterrupted supply during critical Product development or
commercialization periods, or to allow GTX to locate and qualify a Third Party manufacturer of
Orion Product for such purpose. Upon such request, the Parties shall promptly discuss whether or
not Orion is interested in supplying GTX with such needs of Orion Product. Nothing in this
paragraph shall be deemed to require Orion to take any action or to impose an obligation for, or
constitute a commitment by Orion in relation to such subject matter.
7.7 Reimbursement of Orion Costs. Except as provided for otherwise in this Section 7, GTX
shall reimburse Orion for all costs and expenses incurred by Orion in fulfilling its obligations
under this Section 7. Orion shall issue an invoice for all such reasonable costs and expenses so

products containing Toremifene for use in the Field, within a reasonable period of time after Orion
becomes aware of such infringement (including, but not limited to, by notifying the infringing
Third Party of such infringement and demanding that such Third Party cease and desist from such
infringement) and, if such infringement does not cease, commence a legal proceeding to enforce
Orion Patent Rights, if any, against Third Party infringements within a reasonable period of time
of the date Orion becomes aware of such infringement. Orion shall notify GTX promptly after Orion

aware of any alleged Third Party infringement of the Orion Patent Rights relating to the
manufacture, use, sale, offer for sale, or import of Products containing Toremifene for use in the
Field, either by notice from GTX or otherwise, Orion has not commenced a legal proceeding pursuant
to Section 11.8.1, or if at any time Orion discontinues the pursuit of such proceeding, GTX may, at
its option, commence, continue or intervene, as the case may be, in such proceeding, provided,
however, that with respect to any such proceedings in any country in the GTX Territory, GTX shall

appropriate measures to enforce GTX Patent Rights and rights to Trademarks against Third Party

infringement and demanding that such Third Party cease and desist from such infringement) and, if
such infringement does not cease, commence a legal proceeding to enforce such GTX Patent Rights or
rights to Trademarks, if any against Third Party infringements. GTX’s commencement of such
proceeding shall be at GTX’s own expense, provided that GTX shall be entitled to retain all
recoveries in such proceeding or any appeal thereof. Such commencement by GTX shall not relieve
either Party of its obligations under Section 11.6.
11.10 Mutual Cooperation. In the event of any infringement litigation in the GTX Territory
involving the Product or Orion Product or any Orion Patent Rights or GTX Patent Rights or the
Trademark, the non-prosecuting or non-defending Party shall render such reasonable assistance as

actions. If Orion requests GTX’s assistance in connection with such infringement claims or actions,
Orion shall reimburse GTX for such direct, documented out-of-pocket expenses as are reasonably
incurred by GTX during the course of it providing such requested assistance. If GTX requests
Orion’s assistance in connection with such infringement claims or actions, GTX shall reimburse
Orion for such direct, documented out-of-pocket expenses as are reasonably incurred by Orion during

intend to use in connection with the marketing, promotion and sale of the Product thirty (30) days
prior to their first use thereof, provided that nothing herein or otherwise, including without
limitation any request by Orion to be furnished with such materials or review of same, shall be
construed as Orion assuming any liability or responsibility for such materials or their conformity
to all legal requirements in any country of the GTX Territory in which the Product is sold and such
request and/or review by Orion of such materials shall be without prejudice to the first sentence
of this Section 14.5. GTX, its Affiliates, or GTX Unaffiliated Sublicensee shall register, promote,
market and sell the Product in the GTX Territory only for the indications for which relevant
Regulatory Approvals have been obtained and only in accordance with applicable legal and

provide the other Party with a copy of any U.S. FDA Form 483 notices of adverse findings,
regulatory letters or similar notifications it receives from any other governmental authority
setting forth adverse findings or non compliance with any applicable laws, regulations or standards
relating to the Product within five (5) days of its own receipt thereof. Each Party shall also
provide the other Party with a copy of its proposed written response to such governmental authority
before submission and shall incorporate any changes thereto which the other Party may reasonably
request.
16.2 Orion-initiated Manufacturing Changes. Save as for changes required under applicable
laws and regulations or by any competent regulatory or other authority, during the Term, Orion
shall not make any material changes to its manufacturing operations for Toremifene and Orion
Product to be supplied to GTX pursuant to this Agreement, without informing GTX prior to such
changes; provided that if such changes would require GTX to make additional

39.
filings with regulatory authorities or to seek additional Regulatory Approvals for Orion
Product, then Orion shall not make such change without GTX’s prior written consent, such consent
not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed
16.3 GTX-Initiated Manufacturing Changes
16.3.1 GTX Request for Manufacturing Changes. Prior to Orion providing GTX with notice
pursuant to Section 13.9, GTX may, from time to time during the Term and as agreed in this Section
16.3, make a written and detailed request for changes in Orion’s manufacturing operations, or the
Specifications, for Toremifene and Orion Product. Such changes that are required and mandatory
under applicable laws and regulations in a Major Country shall be deemed “Required Manufacturing
Changes”, and such changes that are intended to promote quality control/quality assurance, and/or
to achieve greater efficiency or cost savings in the manufacturing process shall be deemed “Other
Manufacturing Changes”.
16.3.2 Required Manufacturing Changes. Provided that GTX furnishes Orion with evidence of
Required Manufacturing Changes, Orion shall commence the implementation of Required Manufacturing
Changes as soon as practicable, but in no event later than (i) ninety (90) days after receipt of
GTX’s request (or within such other longer time period as may be mutually agreed upon by the
Parties if implementation within ninety (90) days is impossible or reasonably impractical, such
agreement not to be unreasonably withheld, condition or delayed by GTX) or (ii) earlier if required
by the U.S. FDA or any corresponding regulatory authority in a Major Country. If Orion does not
commence the implementation of Required Manufacturing Changes within the time period referenced in
the preceding sentence or does not notify GTX in writing that Orion disputes whether GTX’s
requested changes are Required Manufacturing Changes, then GTX shall have the option to exercise
standby manufacturing rights for Toremifene and Product pursuant to Section 15.1 until such time as
Orion implements such Required Manufacturing Changes. If Orion notifies GTX in writing that Orion
disputes whether GTX’s requested changes are Required Manufacturing Changes, the Parties shall
resolve such dispute by reference to a mutually agreed upon independent Third Party regulatory
expert as soon as possible for a binding determination of whether the requested changes are
Required Manufacturing Changes. If such independent Third Party regulatory expert determines that
GTX’s requested changes are Required Manufacturing Changes, Orion shall implement such changes as
soon as possible. Any modification to the Specifications that is necessary to implement or reflect
a Required Manufacturing Change shall be deemed to be included in the Specifications, and any
Products manufactured thereunder by Orion shall be deemed Orion Products.
16.3.3 Other Manufacturing Changes. Orion shall give due consideration to making Other
Manufacturing Changes proposed by GTX. Orion shall within sixty (60) days from receipt of GTX’s
written request for Other Manufacturing Changes provide GTX a written response to such request
indicating whether it would be willing to discuss, and as appropriate, negotiate the terms and
conditions under which Orion would be willing to implement such Other Manufacturing Changes.
16.4 New Dosage Strengths and Formulations. Upon written request by GTX, the Parties shall
meet in person or by teleconference to discuss, and as appropriate, negotiate the
[ * ] = | Certain confidential information contained in this document, marked by brackets, has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuantis pursuant to Rule 406 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. |
40.
terms under which Orion would be willing to manufacture and supply to GTX any dosage strengths
or formulations of the Product other than those that are available as an Orion Product as of the
Amendment Date (including without limitation any combination Product containing Toremifene and
another active ingredient) or any Product otherwise having specifications different from Orion
Product Specifications (such Products, collectively “Other Product(s)”), as provided in this
Section 16.4.
The Parties shall conduct such discussions during a sixty (60) day period following GTX’s
written request setting forth in sufficient detail the changes proposed by GTX, or any mutually
agreed extension of such time period (“Evaluation Period”). If Orion would be willing to
manufacture such Other Product, Orion shall within the Evaluation Period notify GTX of the terms
and conditions under which it would be willing to do so, and the Parties shall negotiate a written
amendment to this Agreement to include the applicable terms and conditions under which Orion would
manufacture such Other Product, including without limitation the supply price of such Other
Product. Upon execution of such amendment, such Other Product shall be deemed to be an Orion
Product. Such negotiation shall be conducted for up to one hundred twenty (120) days following
GTX’s receipt of Orion’s notice of such terms and conditions (“Negotiation Period”). It is
expressly agreed that Orion shall have no obligation to manufacture and supply any Other Product
unless a mutually acceptable definitive written amendment to this Agreement, if any, in relation to
such Other Product is executed by duly authorized representatives of both Parties.
In the event Orion notifies GTX within the Evaluation Period that it will not be interested in
supplying such Other Product, or the Parties do not amend this Agreement during the Negotiation
Period to specify applicable terms for, or execute another agreement governing, Orion’s supply of
such Other Product for use in the Field, then if GTX has a good faith basis for requiring supply of
such Other Product, including but not limited to its desire to develop a dosage strength of Product
other than one which is in clinical development by or on behalf of GTX as of the Amendment Date and
in which an Orion Product is available, or a formulation of Product that incorporates a new
technology or another active ingredient in order to optimize the pharmacokinetic properties of
Product, improve the competitive position of Product in the market, or to increase the efficiency
or safety of Products, GTX shall have the right to manufacture, or engage a Third Party
subcontractor to manufacture, such Other Product for sale and use in the Field only. GTX shall
exercise such right to manufacture or have manufactured an Other Product for sale and use in the
Field pursuant to this Section 16.4 in good faith only, and not for the purpose of obtaining the
right to manufacture Product by, for example, proposing minor changes to the Product formulation
that do not present a commercially reasonable basis for development. To the extent reasonably
necessary to implement such manufacturing right, Orion hereby grants GTX a contingent license under
Orion’s Patent Rights, Orion Know-How, Manufacturing Patents, and Product Manufacturing Know-How to
make and have made the relevant Other Product for use in the Field in the GTX Territory. Such
license shall be exclusive with respect to Products for use in the Field and in the North American
Territory, and nonexclusive for exclusive use in the Field in the ROW Territory, and shall become
effective only under the circumstances specified in this Section 16.4.
17. PRODUCT RECALLS
[ * ] = | Certain confidential information contained in this document, marked by brackets, has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuantis pursuant to Rule 406 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. |
41.
17.1 Recall Notification. Each Party shall promptly notify the other Party in writing of any
facts relating to the advisability of the recall, destruction or withholding from the market of the
Product anywhere in the GTX Territory (collectively, “Recall”).
17.2 Recall Implementation in GTX Territory. If at any time (A) any governmental or
regulatory authority in the GTX Territory issues a request, directive or order for a Recall; (B) a
court of competent jurisdiction orders a Recall in the GTX Territory; or (C) GTX determines,
following consultation with Orion (except in emergency situations in which there is insufficient
time for such consultation), that a Recall in the GTX Territory is necessary or advisable, GTX
shall take all appropriate corrective actions to effect the Recall and Orion shall provide GTX with
such cooperation in connection with the Recall as GTX may reasonably request.
17.3 Recall Costs and Expenses in GTX Territory. GTX shall bear the costs and expenses of any
Recall in the GTX Territory, provided that Orion shall bear all costs and expenses of any Recall in
the GTX Territory to the extent such Recall is the result of a breach in the warranties set forth
in Section 14.1.
18. ADVERSE DRUG EXPERIENCES
18.1 Adverse Events.
(a) To ensure that all relevant safety information for Toremifene is shared between the
Parties, the following information will be exchanged: (i) GTX will provide to Orion all regulatory
safety updates (e.g. 120-day safety updates, annual reports, post-authorization safety updates)
upon public release thereof concerning the Product; and (ii) Orion will provide to GTX Periodic
Safety Update Reports upon public release thereof prepared in accordance with ICH E2C guidelines
covering Orion’s Toremifene indication for breast cancer. In addition, any safety information which
may negatively affect the benefit-risk ratio of Toremifene products or that may have consequences
regarding the product information (e.g. labeling, data sheets, instruction leaflets) or may require
immediate safety measures to be taken by either Party shall be forwarded to the other Party without
any delay. Each Party is responsible for any regulatory safety reporting requirements with respect
to its own Regulatory Approval applications and regulatory requirements according to applicable
laws, rules and regulations. If the FDA requires that reports of adverse events must be exchanged
between the Parties, and submitted to the FDA in connection with both Parties’ regulatory filings
for Toremifene products, the details of the Parties’ exchange of such information will be modified
accordingly and documented as an Exhibit to this Agreement.
(b) The intent of Section 18.1(a) is to enable each Party to comply with regulatory
requirements for Toremifene products. If either Party learns that the foregoing exchange of
information is not sufficient for such Party to meet regulatory requirements with respect to
Toremifene products that it has the right to commercialize, it may so note by the other Party.
Promptly thereafter, the Parties shall discuss and agree upon a mutually acceptable modification to
the foregoing procedure that enables the Party providing such notice to conform with such
regulatory requirements with respect to such Toremifene products. Specifically and without
limitation, to the extent regulatory authorities outside of the United States require
[ * ] = | Certain confidential information contained in this document, marked by brackets, has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuantis pursuant to Rule 406 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. |
42.
reporting or other obligations with respect to adverse drug experiences in addition to those
stated in Section 18.1(a) above, the Parties shall, promptly after the Amendment Date, meet and
negotiate in good faith mutually agreeable procedures to meet such obligations.
This Section 18 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.
19. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

documentation, information and data in its possession as Orion may need for regulatory compliance
in the course of exercising its rights in such territory with respect to Product.
20.3 Termination by Mutual Agreement. The Parties may terminate this Agreement at any time by
drafting and executing a mutually acceptable written agreement. The written agreement shall specify
the consequences of such termination.
20.4 Other Termination by Orion

written notice to GTX if any business entity which is a direct competitor of Orion for Toremifene
should any time during the Term acquire control over the business affairs of GTX by purchase or
acquisition of a fifty percent (50%) or greater interest in GTX’s issued and outstanding stock, all
or substantially all of GTX’s assets, or the GTX business unit or division dealing with the
Product. If Orion after the thirty (30) days from receipt of notification (such notification to be
furnished by GTX to Orion at the latest by such purchase or acquisition becoming public knowledge),
does not exercise its rights to terminate this Agreement, Orion shall irrevocably lose and forfeit
such right.
20.5 Other Termination by GTX
20.5.1 Change of Control of Orion. GTX shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon
thirty (30) days prior written notice to Orion if any business entity which is a direct competitor
of GTX for Toremifene for use in the Field should any time during the Term acquire control over the
business affairs of Orion by purchase or acquisition of a fifty percent (50%) or greater interest
in Orion’s issued and outstanding stock, all or substantially all of Orion’s assets, or the Orion
business unit or division dealing with the Product. If GTX after the thirty (30) days from receipt
