17. | Section 4.3(10) of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: |
Intentionally Omitted.
18. | Section 4.3(11) of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: |
(11) (a) Neither XXX nor Mylan Inc. (“Mylan”) shall directly or indirectly,
manufacture, Detail, sell, market or promote any product (except for
Products during the Term of this Agreement) containing Zileuton as one of
the active pharmaceutical ingredients for sale in the Territory during the
Term. If this Agreement expires or terminates for any reason, neither XXX
nor Mylan shall directly or indirectly, manufacture, Detail, sell, market or
promote any product containing Zileuton as one of the active
pharmaceutical ingredients for sale in the Territory until the later of
(i) one year after such expiration or termination or (ii) March 31, 2012
(the “Post-Termination Non-Compete Period”); provided, however, if: (x) a

authorized by CRTX enters the Territory during this Post-Termination
Non-Compete Period, XXX and Mylan will no longer
Page 4 of 14
be held to the Post-Termination Non-Compete Period; or (y) a Third Party
AB-rated generic product to Zileuton IR not expressly authorized by CRTX
enters the Territory during this Post-Termination Non-Compete Period,
XXX and Mylan will no longer be held to the Post-Termination
Non-Compete Period with respect to such a product. Nothing set forth in
this Agreement is intended to prevent XXX and/or Mylan from being able to
take any and all actions necessary to be ready to launch a product
containing Zileuton as one of the active pharmaceutical ingredients for sale
in the Territory simultaneously with the market entry of a Third Party
AB-rated generic product to Zileuton XR and/or Zileuton IR not expressly
authorized by CRTX. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if this Agreement is
terminated by XXX pursuant to Section 12.2(4) or by XXX pursuant to Section
12.2(6), the Post-Termination Non-Compete Period in this Section 4.3(11)
shall be void; provided, however, XXX and CRTX shall continue to abide by
the provisions of Section 9 of this Agreement after such termination.
(b) If at any time CRTX decides in its sole discretion to launch an
authorized generic of Zileuton XR and/or Zileuton IR in the Territory, XXX
and/or Mylan shall have the exclusive right to be CRTX’s exclusive
authorized generic distributor in the Territory. XXX and/or Mylan shall
have thirty (30) days after CRTX’s written notice of its decision to launch
such authorized generic(s) in the Territory to elect in writing to exercise
its right to commercialize such authorized generic(s) in the Territory.
CRTX’s written notice to XXX shall include DEY’s Transfer Cost (as defined
below), CRTX’s manufacturing lead times and the applicable CRTX Royalty (as
defined below). To the extent XXX and/or Mylan do not timely make such
election, CRTX shall be free to commercialize such authorized generic(s) on
its own or through a Third Party on terms no more favorable than the terms
offered to XXX and/or Mylan. To the extent XXX and/or Mylan timely make
such election, CRTX shall exclusively supply XXX and/or Mylan with such
authorized generic at [***] (“DEY’s Transfer Cost”) and upon such other
terms and conditions mutually agreed to in good faith by the Parties. If
XXX and/or Mylan elects to order inventory of the authorized generic in
anticipation of the potential launch of a generic by a Third Party (the
“Pre-launch Inventory”) and the Pre-launch Inventory is not sold, XXX shall,
at CRTX’s option, either: (i) sell back to CRTX at DEY’s Transfer Cost all
of the Pre-launch Inventory, or (ii) destroy the Pre-Launch Inventory. If
the Pre-Launch Inventory is destroyed as a result of such product not being
commercially launched by XXX and/or Mylan because the potential launch of a
generic by a Third Party does not actually occur, the parties shall divide
the transfer and destruction costs of the Pre-launch Inventory eighty
percent to be paid by CRTX and twenty percent to be paid by XXX and/or
Mylan; provided, however, CRTX shall have no obligation to share such costs
if the applicable inventory has more than twelve (12) months of remaining
shelf life on the actual launch date of a generic by a Third Party. XXX
and/or Mylan shall sell and distribute the authorized generic in the
Territory using commercially reasonable efforts to maximize profitability.
Within thirty (30) days following the end of each Calendar Quarter, XXX
and/or Mylan shall
[***] | Confidential portions of the exhibit have been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. |
Page 5 of 14
calculate the net revenue realized from the sale of the authorized generic
product. For purposes of this Section, “net revenue” shall mean the
invoiced sales price to a customer by XXX for the authorized generic less:
(i) any applicable taxes, (ii) returned goods credits, (iii) any discounts,
in amounts customary in the trade, for quantity purchases or cash or prompt
payment, (iv) retroactive price reductions, including chargebacks and
administrative fees, in amounts customary in the trade. XXX and/or Mylan
shall subtract from net revenue the following to arrive at “Net Profits”:
(i) DEY’s Transfer Cost, (ii) any royalty due and payable by CRTX to Third
Parties pursuant to agreement(s) existing as of the Amendment No. 2
Effective Date (“CRTX Royalty”), and (iii) a [***] percent ([***]%)
distribution allowance for XXX and/or Mylan. Within thirty (30) days after
the end of each Calendar Quarter, XXX and/or Mylan shall pay CRTX the CRTX
Royalty and an additional royalty equal to [***] percent
([***]%) of the Net
Profits realized from the sale of the authorized generic. If at any time
after the launch of the authorized generic it becomes commercially
unreasonable for XXX and/or Mylan to continue selling the authorized
generic, XXX and/or Mylan may cease selling the authorized generic upon
ninety (90) days prior written notice to CRTX. Upon XXX and/or Mylan’s
ceasing to sell the authorized generic, it shall, at CRTX’s option, either:
(i) sell back to CRTX at DEY’s Transfer Cost all inventory of the authorized
generic, or (ii) destroy all inventory of the authorized generic at XXX
and/or Mylan’s expense.

items, market research) and Sample expenses, the expenses of which shall be

continuing throughout the Term until any generic competition for Zileuton XR
enters the market in the Territory, at least [***] percent
([***]%) of the
total Non-personal Promotion Expenses incurred by CRTX must be directed to
the PUDs. Until any generic competition for Zileuton XR enters the market
in the Territory, Promotion Expenses include, but are not limited to, all of
the costs for the following: (1) the Promotional Materials for biannual
Plans of Action to commence March 1 and September 1 of each calendar year

adjusted on a per-target and Call frequency basis taking into account
differences in the number of targets and Call frequency). CRTX will not
offer any promotions to other physician specialties or healthcare providers
that are not also made available to the PUDs. On a calendar quarterly
basis, CRTX will provide XXX with a twenty four (24) month rolling forecast
for sales of the Products.
22. | Section 4.4(5) of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: |

23. | A new Section 4.4(6) will be added to the Agreement as follows: |
Intentionally omitted.
24. | Section 4.4(7) of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: |
Intentionally omitted.
25. | Section 4.4(8) of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: |
CRTX, at its sole expense, will be responsible for obtaining and maintaining
all applicable regulatory approvals for Products and approving and
submitting all Promotional Materials in the Territory to the regulatory
authorities, all as according to Applicable Laws. A minimum of forty-five

Page 7 of 14
etc.), CRTX will submit all draft Promotion Materials to XXX for legal,
medical and regulatory review. XXX will provide its comments to CRTX within
ten (10) business days of its receipt thereof. Following CRTX’s receipt of
DEY’s comments, the Parties shall discuss and CRTX shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to address DEY’s comments in the Promotion Materials.
The revised Promotion Materials will be resubmitted by CRTX to XXX for final
review at least five (5) business days prior to the date of disk release to

respectively. If a dispute arises between the Parties concerning the content
of any Promotion Material, CRTX will provide copies of the Promotional
Materials that have been revised to remove the disputed section if there is
a documented legal, medical or regulatory concern raised by XXX; provided,
however, in such case, CRTX and XXX shall each pay fifty percent (50%) of
the additional, incremental costs of such Promotional Material. For
example, if the Parties plan to print 1,000 copies of a promotional piece at
a cost of $10,000 but they cannot agree on content and two versions (500
copies each) of the piece must be printed at a cost of $14,000, XXX would
