The effective date of such grant for (a) each of the Tier 1 Products for the U.S. shall be the date that the Loan is reduced by the Milestone Amount corresponding to the Launch Date Milestone Event for such Product as set forth in Annex C or Annex D, as applicable, or the date the Loan is reduced by fifty percent (50%) of such Milestone Amount pursuant to Section 10.1 (b), as applicable, and (b) for the Tier 2 Products and Tier 3 Products, collectively, for the U.S., on the first Launch Date of any Tier 2 Product or Tier 3 Product in the U.S. and (c) for the Products for the Optional Territory as provided in Section 3.1. Teva accepts the grant of such exclusive Marketing rights from Impax.

	2.2		Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement and subject to the provisions of Section 8, Impax and its Affiliates shall, during the period from the Effective Date to the expiration of the Supply Term for each of the Products, (a) manufacture and supply to Teva and its Affiliates all of their requirements for the Products in the Territory, and (b) supply the Products for the Territory exclusively and only to Teva and Teva’s Affiliates in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Parties shall designate that product as a Tier 3 Product subject to the terms of this Agreement.

	7.1		Subject to Teva’s compliance with Section 8, Impax shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to supply on a timely basis all of Teva’s and its Affiliates’ requirements for the Products for the Territory.

	7.3		Without limiting any of its obligations under this Agreement, in the event that for any reason Impax may have an insufficient supply of API and other required ingredients to meet its obligations under Section 7.1, Impax shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to obtain a third party source for such API and other required ingredients in consultation with Teva through the Working Committee.

	7.6		Impax shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts in accordance with its standard manufacturing practices to reduce its Manufacturing Costs of each of the Products throughout the respective Supply Term in order to maximize Profit. In the event that any of Impax’s Manufacturing Costs excluding Cost of Materials for any of the Products equal or exceed seventy-five percent (75%) of the amounts set forth in Annex B, the Parties shall negotiate on a Product-by-Product basis in good faith a way to reduce such Manufacturing Costs, including, without limitation, by transferring the manufacture of the Products to Teva, its Affiliates and/or a third party, and the sharing of costs associated with such transfer.

	7.7		If Teva believes that all or any part of any lot of Product it obtains from Impax has not been manufactured in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement, including, without limitation, with the Specifications, Impax’s representations and warranties hereunder or any other defect in the Product, or that there is a shortage of Product, then Teva will promptly notify Impax in writing setting forth in reasonable detail the

			alleged nonconformity, defect or shortage. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.9, Teva agrees to notify Impax of any nonconformity, defect or shortage of any shipment of Product that Teva discovers by its standard receiving procedures within thirty (30) days after Teva’s receipt of the Product from Impax. Upon receipt of such notification of nonconformance, defect or shortage, Impax will have fifteen (15) days to inspect the affected Product and make a reasonable assessment of the alleged nonconformance, defect or shortage. If the Parties agree that there is a nonconformance, defect or shortage, Impax, at its sole cost and expense, shall promptly replace any nonconforming or defective Product or make up the shortage, to be shipped at Impax’s cost. Nonconforming or defective Product will be returned to Impax at its expense.

Impax will use its best efforts to replace promptly any shipment or portion of a shipment under dispute until the dispute is resolved. The replacement Product and the cost of the laboratory will be at Impax’s cost if the laboratory finds that the lot in question is non-conforming to Specifications or otherwise defective. The costs of the independent laboratory will be paid by Teva if the lot in question is found by the laboratory to be conforming and compliant. The findings of the laboratory shall be final and binding upon the Parties, and shall not be subject to appeal or review by any third party.

	7.9		The Parties acknowledge that it is possible for Product to have manufacturing defects that are not discoverable upon reasonable physical inspection or testing (referred to as “Latent Defect” or “Latent Defects”). Latent Defects may include, by way of illustration and not definition or limitation, defects not present in preshipment samples, loss of stability, separation, discoloration or other manufacturing defects. Impax is responsible for all Latent Defects that are attributable to the production of the Product by or on behalf of Impax or failure of such Product to otherwise comply with the provisions of this Agreement (including without limitation, Impax’s representations and warranties hereunder). As soon as Impax discovers or becomes aware of a Latent Defect in any Product it produced and shipped, it will immediately notify Teva of the lot(s) involved and Impax will replace that Product in the manner described in Sections 7.7 and 7.8, above.

	7.10		In order to ensure continuous supply of the Products and to maximize sales and profits, commencing six (6) months following the Effective Date, at Teva’s option, on a Product-by-Product and country-by-country basis, the Parties shall use their commercially reasonable best efforts

to supplement for each of the Products the ANDAs submitted with the FDA as of the Effective Date, as well as any Approvals (including ANDAs) to be submitted with the FDA or any non-U.S. Regulatory Authority thereafter in order to permit Teva and/or its Affiliate or a third party reasonably acceptable to both Parties, to manufacture and/or package the Products for the Territory. Subject to Impax providing an estimate of anticipated expenses, and except as otherwise provided in Section 7.5 and 7.6, above Teva shall pay all expenses associated with the foregoing, such expenses consisting of pre-approved reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of Impax, supply of API at cost to Impax, and a per diem charge of One Thousand U.S. Dollars (U.S. $1,000) for each employee of Impax, assisting at Teva’s request, with supplementing the ANDAs.

FORECASTS AND ORDERS

	8.1		Within one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the anticipated Launch Date for each of the Products for each country in the Territory, Teva shall provide to Impax a nonbinding written forecast of estimated quantities of Product that Teva and its Affiliates anticipate ordering from Impax during the twelve (12) month period commencing with the Launch Date for such country. Teva shall update such forecast on a Calendar Quarter rolling basis, for the twelve (12) month period commencing ninety (90) days from each such update. Teva shall communicate any changes to its forecast as soon as the changes are known by Teva. Teva shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to ensure the accuracy of its forecasts. The first quarter of each such updated forecast shall be deemed a firm purchase order.

	8.2		Each firm purchase order shall set forth the quantities of Products ordered, dates for delivery of the Products, the country for which the Products are designated, the place of delivery and reasonable instructions for shipping. Impax shall supply to Teva and its Affiliates’ the quantity of Products on the delivery dates and at the delivery destination stated therein; provided, however, Impax shall not be obligated but shall be required to use its commercially reasonable best efforts to fill any purchase order to the extent of quantities exceeding one hundred and twenty percent (120%) of the amount last forecasted for the applicable Calendar Quarter except as otherwise provided in Section 2.10.

	8.3		Any terms and conditions of an invoice, acknowledgement or similar document provided by Impax for Products, or, any terms and conditions of purchase orders provided by Teva for Products, which are inconsistent with or in addition to the terms of this Agreement shall be null and void.

	9		TRADEMARK(S)

			Teva and its Affiliates shall have the right, in their respective sole discretion and at their expense, to select and to register any of their trademarks, as they wish to employ in connection with the Marketing of any of the Products in any of the countries in the Territory and to Market Product using such trademarks.

	10		CONSIDERATION AND LOAN

10.1

Teva shall, within five (5) business days of the Effective Date, loan to Impax the sum of Twenty Two Million U.S. Dollars (U.S. $22,000,000) (the “Loan”) towards the development of the Products and the establishment of the production facilities and infrastructure necessary to meet Teva’s and/or its Affiliates’ Product requirements hereunder. Impax hereby undertakes and agrees that it shall expend not less than Twenty Two Million U.S. Dollars (U.S. $22,000,000) towards the construction of the production facilities located in Hayward California, including the facility located on San Antonio Street (the “New Facility”) and the development of the Products. The Loan shall be evidenced by Impax’s promissory note in the form annexed hereto at Annex H (the “Note”). Without limiting any other rights and remedies available to Teva under this Agreement, the Note, at law or in equity, from and after the occurrence of an Event of Default as defined in Section 10.7 Teva shall have the right to declare the Loan immediately due and payable by delivering written notice to such effect to Impax. Impax shall repay the then outstanding balance of the Loan to Teva, in cash, within thirty (30) days of its receipt of such notice. In the event Impax achieves the milestones set forth in Annex C or Annex D, as applicable, on a timely basis, then the outstanding balance of the Loan shall be reduced by the corresponding amounts designated for each such achieved milestone (each such amount is referred to herein as the “Milestone Amount”). If, on the other hand, Impax fails to meet any of the milestones set forth in Annex C or Annex D, as applicable, by the respective dates set forth for each such milestone (including as a result of an early termination of this Agreement), then Teva shall have the option, on a Product-by-Product basis with respect to the applicable milestone, to either:

	(a)		require Impax to repay to Teva that portion of the Loan equal to the applicable Milestone Amount; or

	(b)		require Impax to repay to Teva that portion of the Loan equal to fifty percent (50%) of the applicable Milestone Amount.

Repayment by Impax of the amounts under subparagraphs (a) and (b), above, and Section 4.3, if applicable, shall be made to Teva not later

			than January 15, 2004, and shall be paid, at the option of Impax, in cash or (subject to Section 10.5) in Impax Common Stock at the Designated Share Price.

	10.2		In the event Teva chooses option 10.1(a), above, then the grant to Teva with respect to the Marketing of the subject Product for the U.S. shall be deemed nonexclusive and effective as of such exercise, and the provisions of Sections 2.3 - 2.11 and such other provisions of this Agreement respecting Competing Products of the subject Products shall no longer apply to Teva and/or Impax or their respective Affiliates with respect to such Products for the U.S.; provided, however, in any event, Impax shall remain obligated to supply Teva’s and/or its Affiliates’ requirements of the applicable Product on a most-favored basis.

	10.3		Subject to the provisions of the Stock Purchase Agreement, being executed by the Parties concurrently herewith, and Section 10.5, Teva shall, on each of September 15, 2001, December 15, 2001, March 15, 2002 and June 15, 2002, purchase from Impax such number of shares of Impax Common Stock at the Designated Share Price as equals Three Million Seven Hundred and Fifty Thousand U.S. Dollars (U.S. $3,750,000).

	10.4		Upon the first Launch Date of any Tier 2 or Tier 3 Product in the U.S., Teva shall sell back to Impax for an aggregate purchase price of One U.S. Dollar (U.S. $1.00) such number of shares of Impax Common Stock that equals sixteen and two thirds percent (16 2/3%) of the aggregate shares of Impax Common Stock purchased by Teva from Impax pursuant to Section 10.3.

	10.5		Notwithstanding anything contained in Sections 10.1 or 10.3 to the contrary, in no event shall Teva be obligated to purchase (or accept as repayment of the Loan pursuant to Section 10.1) such number of shares of Impax Common Stock that at the time of transfer to Teva or its Affiliate would, in the aggregate, exceed nineteen point nine percent (19.9%) of the then issued and outstanding shares of Impax Common Stock. If any such transfer would result in Teva and its Affiliates owning more than nineteen point nine percent (19.9%) of the outstanding Impax Common Stock then, at Teva’s request, such excess amounts shall be paid by Impax to Teva in cash.

	10.6		Throughout the period that the Loan, or any portion thereof, is outstanding, Impax hereby covenants and agrees it will not, nor will it permit any of its Affiliates to:

	(a)		Liquidate, windup or dissolve.

	(b)		Assume, endorse, be or become liable for or guarantee any indebtedness of any Person excluding however, the

			endorsement of negotiable instruments for deposit or collection in the ordinary course of business.

	(c)		Declare or pay any dividends on its capital stock (other than dividends payable solely in shares of Impax Common Stock), or purchase, redeem, retire or otherwise acquire any of its capital stock at any time outstanding except as provided in Section 10.4, except any Affiliate wholly owned by Impax may declare and pay dividends to Impax.

	(d)		Materially alter the nature of its business.

	(e)		Directly or indirectly purchase, acquire or lease any property from, or sell, transfer or lease any property to, or enter into any other transaction, with any Affiliate of Impax or any party related to the management of Impax except the assignment of Impax’s right to purchase the New Facility to Affiliates (subject to Teva’s rights pursuant to Section 10.11) at prices and on terms not less favorable to it than those which would have been obtained in an arm’s-length transaction with a non-affiliated third party.

10.7

Subject to any applicable grace, notice and cure period provided for herein the occurrence and the continuance of any of the following events is referred to herein as an “Event of Default”:

	(a)		If Impax shall fail to pay, when due, any portion of the Loan or interest thereon; or

	(b)		Any representation or warranty made by Impax herein or in the Stock Purchase Agreement or Registration Rights Agreement shall prove to have been false in any material respect on or as of the date made; or

	(c)		This Agreement or the Stock Purchase Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement is terminated by Teva as a result of a breach, default, misrepresentation or other act or omission by Impax giving rise to the right of termination by Teva hereunder or thereunder, respectively.

	10.8		The purchase of Impax Common Stock by Teva or the repayment of all or a portion of the Loan by Impax in shares of Impax Common Stock pursuant to this Section 10 shall be conditioned upon the execution by the Parties of a Stock Purchase Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement in the form attached as Annex E.

	10.9		The Loan shall bear interest at the annual rate of eight percent (8%) accruing from the date of grant (the “Interest Obligation”). The Interest Obligation shall be due and payable on January 15, 2004 or such earlier date that the outstanding balance of the Loan is due (without right of set-off, deduction or other withholding), to the extent

			there remains any outstanding balance on the Loan pursuant to this Section 10, and only with respect to such portion of the Loan that had not been forgiven as of such date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Teva agrees to forgive the Interest Obligation in the event and upon the date that Impax has obtained tentative or final Approvals for any three of the Products.

	10.10		By no later than December 31, 2001, as additional security for the repayment of the Loan, Impax shall grant to Teva a mortgage on the New Facility subordinate to a senior lien of up to Three Million U.S. Dollars ($3,000,000) in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Teva, or such other collateral as may be reasonably satisfactory to Teva.

	11.4		Teva shall have the sole and exclusive right to determine all terms and conditions of sale of the Products to its customers.

	11.5		Subject to Teva having received full launch quantities of the applicable Product based upon Teva’s forecast, Teva shall launch each Product on a country-by-country basis within fifteen (15) days of final Approval of each Product; provided, however, that if either Party has a written opinion of patent counsel reasonably acceptable to the other Party that launch would result in a significant risk of damages for infringement of third party intellectual property rights, then the Parties shall agree upon a later launch for such Product in the subject country in the Territory or, alternatively, Teva may compel launch of the Product in such country in

			the Territory. If Teva so compels a launch of a Product in any country in the Territory, then it shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Impax for any damages and expenses of an Intellectual Rights Suit to the extent directly related to the patents set forth in the above-referenced Impax patent opinion and to the extent caused by the launch of the Product and not attributable in whole or in part to any untrue representation or warranty of Impax or breach of a covenant made by Impax hereunder.

All such information shall be retained on a confidential basis by the accounting firm, and such accounting firm’s use of such information shall be limited to the aforementioned verification.

			officers, directors, employees, and representatives harmless from and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements, (collectively, “Damages”) in connection with any and all suits, investigations, claims or demands by third parties resulting from or arising out of: (a) any breach or alleged breach by Impax (or its Affiliates) of any representation, warranty, undertaking or covenant hereunder; (b) events occurring prior to the Effective Date and relating to the Products; (c) any negligence or willful misconduct by Impax (or its Affiliates); or (d) a defect contained in a Product manufactured by Impax, its Affiliates or any third party on its behalf.

	14.2		Except as otherwise expressly provided in Xxxxxxx 00, Xxxx shall indemnify, defend and hold Impax, its Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees, and representatives harmless from and against any and all Damages in connection with any and all suits, investigations, claims or demands by third parties resulting from or arising out of: (a) any breach or alleged breach by Teva (or its Affiliates) of any representation, warranty, undertaking or covenant hereunder; (b) any negligence or willful misconduct by Teva (or its Affiliates); (c) any defect contained in a Product manufactured by Teva, it Affiliates or any third party on its behalf; or (d) any claim of trademark infringement arising from the use by Teva (or its Affiliates) of any of its trademarks in connection with the Products.

	14.4		As soon as a Party becomes aware of the possibility of a claim involving indemnification under this Section 14, the indemnified Party shall give the indemnifying Party prompt written notice in writing and shall permit the indemnifying Party to have control over the defense of such claim or suit.

Furthermore, Impax shall provide Teva with copies of all pleadings and other litigation documents and shall consult with Teva in connection with litigation strategy.

			Tier 2 and Tier 3 Products for the Territory

	15.5		With regard to the Tier 2 and Tier 3 Products in the Territory, Teva shall have the right to assume direction and control of any Intellectual Rights Suit and the defense of claims arising there from, including without limitation, subject to the consent of Impax, not to be unreasonably withheld, the selection of legal counsel; provided, however, that once it exercises its right to assume control, Teva shall obtain the prior written consent of Impax prior to ceasing to defend, settling or otherwise disposing of such claim, said consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Furthermore, Teva shall provide Impax with copies of all pleadings and other litigation documents and shall consult with Impax in connection with litigation strategy.

	15.8		With regard to any of the Products, each Party shall obtain the prior written consent of the other Party prior to ceasing to defend, settling or otherwise disposing of any Intellectual Rights Suit or other intellectual property dispute related to the Products.

Impax shall investigate all complaints associated with the manufacturing of the Products and shall provide a written summary to Teva of all such investigations and a prompt written response to the complainant, with a copy to Teva.

	18.3		To the extent permitted or required by law, any decision to recall, withdraw or cease distribution of any Product as a result of a violation of the applicable Approval or any Applicable Law, or because the Product presents a possible safety risk may be made by either Party after consulting with the other Party and taking such reasonable action as the Parties consider to be appropriate under the circumstances to minimize the risk to both Parties and to assure compliance by the Parties with the requirements of the applicable Approval. Any such recall or market withdrawal shall be controlled by Teva; provided, however, that the Parties shall use their best efforts to work together to repossess the affected Product. If any recall or market withdrawal of any Product is the result of the negligence of either Party (or its Affiliate) or the breach by either Party (of its Affiliate) of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement under this Agreement by that Party (or its Affiliate), including the Product warranties, then the negligent or breaching Party shall pay the costs of any such recall action and such costs shall not be charged to the other Party. If any such recall or market withdrawal of any Product is not the result of negligence of either Party (or its Affiliate) or the breach by either Party (or its Affiliate) of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement under this Agreement, then the Parties shall equally share the out of pocket cost of any such recall or market withdrawal.

This indemnity shall be in addition to any liability Issuer may otherwise have. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such holder or any indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such holder. The Issuer will also indemnify, if applicable and if requested, underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers and similar securities industry professionals participating in any distribution pursuant hereto, their officers and directors and each Person who controls such Persons (within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act) to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the Indemnified Persons.

This indemnity shall be in addition to any liability such holder may otherwise have. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Issuer or any indemnified party. In no event shall the liability of any selling holder of Registrable Securities hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds received by such holder under the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation. The Issuer shall be entitled to receive indemnities from, if applicable and if requested, underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers and similar securities industry professionals participating in the distribution, to the same extent as provided above (with appropriate modification) with respect to information so furnished in writing by such Persons specifically for inclusion in any Prospectus or Registration Statement.

(c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder will (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided, that any delay or failure to so notify the indemnifying party shall relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder only to the extent, if at all, that it is actually and materially prejudiced by reason of such delay or failure) and (ii) permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided, however, that any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall have the right to select and employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Person unless (A) the indemnifying party has agreed in writing to pay such fees or expenses, (B) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim within a reasonable time after having received notice of such claim from the Person entitled to indemnification hereunder and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Person, (C) in the reasonable judgment of any such Person, based upon advice of its counsel, a conflict of interest exists between such Person and the indemnifying party with respect to such claims or (D) the indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based on advice of counsel) that there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party (in which case, if the Person notifies the indemnifying party in writing that such Person elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such claim on behalf of such Person). If such defense is not assumed by the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made without its consent, but such consent may not be unreasonably withheld; provided, that an indemnifying party shall not be required to consent to any settlement involving the imposition of equitable

remedies or involving the imposition of any material obligations on such indemnifying party other than financial obligations for which such indemnified party will be indemnified hereunder. If the indemnifying party assumes the defense, the indemnifying party shall have the right to settle such action without the consent of the indemnified party; provided, that the indemnifying party shall be required to obtain such consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) if the settlement includes any admission of wrongdoing on the part of the indemnified party or any restriction on the indemnified party or its officers or directors. No indemnifying party shall consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to each indemnified party of an unconditional release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. The indemnifying party or parties shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of more than one separate firm (together with one firm of local counsel) at any one time from all such indemnified party or parties unless (x) the employment of more than one counsel has been authorized in writing by the indemnifying party or parties, (y) a conflict or potential conflict exists or may exist (based on advice of counsel to an indemnified party) between such indemnified party and the other indemnified parties or (z) an indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based on advice of counsel) that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the other indemnified parties, in each of which cases the indemnifying party shall be obligated to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such additional counsel or counsels.

(d) Contribution. If for any reason the indemnification provided for in the paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 2.8 is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient to hold it harmless as contemplated by paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 2.8, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such Loss in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.8(d) to the contrary, no indemnifying party (other than the Issuer) shall be required pursuant to this Section 2.8(d) to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds received by such indemnifying party from the sale of Registrable Securities in the offering to which the Losses of the indemnified parties relate exceeds the amount of any damages which such indemnifying party has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 2.8(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this paragraph. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. If indemnification is available under this Section 2.8, the indemnifying parties shall indemnify each indemnified party to the full extent provided in Sections 2.8(a) and 2.8(b) hereof without regard to the relative fault of said indemnifying parties or indemnified party.

2.9. Rules 144 and 144A. The Issuer covenants that it will file the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations adopted by the SEC thereunder (or, if the Issuer is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the request of any holder of Registrable Securities after the transfer date, make publicly available other information so long as necessary to permit sales pursuant to Rule 144 or 144A under the Securities Act), and it will take such further action as any holder of Registrable Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such holder to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by (i) Rule 144 or 144A or Regulation S under the Securities Act, as such Rules may be amended from time to time, or (ii) any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the SEC. Upon the request of any holder of Registrable Securities, the Issuer will deliver to such holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements and, if not, the specifics thereof.

SECTION 3. MISCELLANEOUS

3.1. Term. This Agreement shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) July 15, 2004 but in any event no earlier than two years after the last issuance to Teva of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Strategic Alliance Agreement; or (ii) the date as of which (A) all of the Registrable Securities have been sold pursuant to a Registration Statement or (B) the holders are permitted to sell their Registrable Securities under Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act (or any similar provision then in force permitting the sale of restricted securities without limitation on the amount of securities sold or the manner of sale). The provisions of Section 2.8 and Section 2.9 shall survive any termination.

3.2. Injunctive Relief. It is hereby agreed and acknowledged that it will be impossible to measure in money the damages that would be suffered if the parties fail to comply with any of the obligations herein imposed on them and that in the event of any such failure, an aggrieved Person will be irreparably damaged and will not have an adequate remedy at law. Any such Person shall, therefore, be entitled (in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled in law or in equity) to injunctive relief, including, without limitation, specific performance, to enforce such obligations, and if any action should be brought in equity to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement, none of the parties hereto shall raise the defense that there is an adequate remedy at law.

3.3. Notices. All notices, other communications or documents provided for or permitted to be given hereunder, shall be made in writing and shall be given either personally by hand-delivery, by facsimile transmission, by mailing the same in a sealed envelope, registered first-class mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or by air courier guaranteeing overnight delivery:

PROMISSORY NOTE


$22,000,000.00		Philadelphia, PA
		June 27, 2001

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, IMPAX LABORATORIES INC., a corporation duly organized under the laws of the State of Delaware, (the “Borrower”), promises to pay to the order of TEVA PHARMACEUTICALS CURACAO N.V., a corporation duly organized under the laws of the Netherlands Antilles, having an office at World Trade Center Curacao, Xxxx X.X.X. 00, Xxxxxxxxx Xxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxx Antilles (the “Company”) or, at the Company’s option, at such other place and/or to such other entity as may be designated in writing from time to time by the Company, the principal sum of TWENTY TWO MILLION ($22,000,000.00) AND 00/100 DOLLARS together with interest thereon from the date hereof in lawful money of the United States of America or, as provided in the Strategic Alliance Agreement by and between the Company and the Borrower, dated as of the date hereof (the “Strategic Alliance Agreement”), in shares of the Borrower’s common stock, par value $.01 per share (“Common Stock”) at the Designated Share Price (as defined in the Strategic Alliance Agreement), in either case payable as provided below.

This Promissory Note (this “Note”) shall bear interest on the unpaid principal balance from the date hereof until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at an interest rate equal to eight (8%) percent per annum, but in no event shall such interest exceed the maximum rate of interest authorized by applicable law. Interest will be calculated on the outstanding and unforgiven principal balance on the Maturity Date (as defined below) at the per annum rate compounded on a yearly basis as of each anniversary of the date hereof. Interest shall only become due and payable on the Maturity Date and then only if not forgiven pursuant to Section 10.9 of the Strategic Alliance Agreement.

The “Maturity Date” shall be the earlier of (a) January 15, 2004 or (b) thirty (30) days after the date on which the Borrower receives notice from the Company that (i) an “Event of Default” has occurred under Section 10.7 of the Strategic Alliance Agreement, or (ii) Borrower has failed to provide the Company with the Security by December 31, 2001. On the Maturity Date the remaining unpaid and unforgiven principal balance of this Note, any interest thereon, and all costs and expenses accrued hereunder, shall be due and payable. If any payment due hereunder (including, but not limited to, any interest payment and the entire unpaid and unforgiven principal balance under this Note if accelerated or otherwise matured) is not paid when due, the entire unpaid and unforgiven principal balance of this Note shall bear interest at a rate of twelve (12%) percent per annum (the “Default Rate”) from the date such payment was due to and including the date when paid, but in no event shall such interest exceed the maximum rate of interest authorized by applicable law. All payments made to the Company by the Borrower due to the occurrence of an “Event of Default” under the Strategic Alliance Agreement may only be made in lawful money of the United States of America.

The principal amount due under this Note on the Maturity Date shall be reduced by those sums set forth (a) on Annex C and Annex D, as applicable, to the Strategic Alliance Agreement upon the achievement of those certain milestone events as provided in Section 10.1 of the Strategic Alliance Agreement, and/or (b) in subsection (b) of Section 10.1 of the Strategic Alliance Agreement, pursuant to the exercise by the Company of the option provided to it under said Section 10.1(b).

The undersigned shall make all payments due under this Note not later than 12:00 noon (Philadelphia, PA time) on the day when due without set-off, deduction or counterclaim of any kind or nature and free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any taxes, levies, imports, duties, fees, charges, restrictions or conditions of any nature whatsoever. All cash payments shall be made by wire transfer to the account specified in writing by the Company, and any payments made by the Borrower in Common Stock, as permitted by the applicable provisions of the Strategic Alliance Agreement shall be made by delivery of stock certificates representing such shares to the Company.

As of the date hereof the indebtedness evidenced by this Note is unsecured, however, on or before December 31, 2001, the Borrower shall provide the Company with the security provided for in Section 10.10 of the Strategic Alliance Agreement (the “Security”).

No failure by the Company to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Company of any right or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. The rights and remedies of the Company as herein specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies that the Company may otherwise have, including without limitation any rights or remedies the Company may have under the Strategic Alliance Agreement.

No modification, rescission, waiver, forbearance, release or amendment of any provision of this Note shall be made, except by a written agreement duly executed by the undersigned and the Company.

The undersigned hereby waives diligence, presentment, protest and demand, and also notice of protest, demand, dishonor and nonpayment of this Note.

This Note is made and delivered in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and shall be construed under, and governed by, the laws of such Commonwealth, without regard to principles of conflict of laws.

The undersigned hereby submits to personal jurisdiction in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, consents to the jurisdiction of any competent state or federal district court sitting in the City of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and waives any and all rights to raise lack of personal jurisdiction as a defense in any action, suit or proceeding in connection with this Note or any related matter. The Company shall not be obligated to bring any such action, suit or proceeding in such court.

THE UNDERSIGNED HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY THE COMPANY ON THIS NOTE, ANY AND EVERY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO (I) INJUNCTIVE RELIEF, (II) A TRIAL BY JURY, (III) INTERPOSE ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN, AND (IV) HAVE THE SAME CONSOLIDATED WITH ANY OTHER OR SEPARATE SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING. THE UNDERSIGNED ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE FOREGOING WAIVER IS INFORMED AND FREELY GIVEN.

The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that any payments received hereunder by the Company from the undersigned, or on behalf of the undersigned, shall be applied first to late charges, fees payable to the Company, costs and expenses of collection or enforcement of this Note and other similar amounts due, if any, second to interest due and payable under this Note at the Default Rate, if any, third to any other interest due and payable under this Note, and fourth to the unpaid principal hereof, or in such other order as the Company may elect.

The undersigned agrees to pay all costs and expenses incurred by the Company in any modification to this Note, enforcing and collecting the indebtedness evidenced by this Note (whether or not litigation is commenced), or in realizing upon or protecting any collateral securing same, including without limitation the reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by the Company.

The terms and provisions of this Note are severable, and if any term or provision shall be determined to be superseded, illegal, invalid or otherwise unenforceable in whole or in part pursuant to applicable law by a governmental authority having jurisdiction, such determination shall not in any manner impair or otherwise affect the validity, legality or enforceability of that term or provision in any other jurisdiction or any of the remaining terms and provisions of this Note in any jurisdiction.
