(b)

that ACIC will invoice Customer on behalf of Manufacturer and Customer will pay for API purchased pursuant to this Agreement within [ * ] days of the date of invoice or delivery, whichever is later, by cheque to ACIC or by wire transfer to a bank account designated by ACIC;

(c)

that the delivery terms shall be delivered duty paid (DDP, Incoterms 2000) and that ACIC shall co-ordinate and arrange for customs clearance, clearance by the FDA or other applicable Regulatory Authority and delivery to Customer’s facilities or such other destination designated by Customer; and

(d)

that title to, and risk of loss of, the API will pass from Manufacturer to Customer upon delivery as set forth in Section 5(c).

6.	Purchase Orders.

(a)

The purchase and sale of API under this Agreement will be implemented by Customer’s issuance of individual purchase orders to ACIC or to Manufacturer for specific quantities of API. Purchase orders will be placed at least [ * ] days before the desired delivery date and will specify the quantity of API ordered and the requested delivery date. Customer may, in its sole discretion, purchase up to [ * ] percent ([ * ]%) of the API quantities in the first Calendar Quarter of each Forecast for API. Each such purchase order issued by Customer (and as adjusted from time to time as set forth above) constitutes the binding obligation of Manufacturer to Manufacture, sell and deliver to Customer the quantity of API by the delivery date specified in such purchase order, and the binding obligation of Customer to purchase the quantity of API specified therein; provided, that if Customer requests any increase in the quantity of any API in a purchase order in excess of [ * ] percent ([ * ]%) of such quantities, then Manufacturer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to supply the additional API quantity at the Purchase Price. Each purchase order or any acknowledgment thereof, whether printed, stamped, typed, or written shall be governed by the terms of this Agreement and none of the provisions of such purchase order or acknowledgment shall be applicable except those specifying API and quantity ordered, delivery dates, special shipping instructions and invoice information. In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any purchase order, the terms and conditions of this Agreement will prevail.

(b)

If, due to significant unforeseen circumstances, Customer requests changes (other than the upward adjustment of orders by Customers as permitted in Section 6(a) above) to firm orders within the [ * ] month firm purchase order timeframe, Manufacturer shall attempt to accommodate the changes within reasonable manufacturing capabilities and efficiencies. Manufacturer shall advise Customer of the costs that may be associated with making any such change and Customer shall be deemed to have accepted the obligation to pay Manufacturer for such costs if Customer indicates to Manufacturer that Manufacturer should proceed to make the change.

Ad Hoc Orders of Clinical Supply. With respect to clinical supply of API, the Parties acknowledge that prior to the Effective Date, Customer has been purchasing from Manufacturer and Manufacturer has been supplying to Customer on an ad hoc basis via individual purchase orders certain quantities the API and related materials (e.g., samples, reference standards and impurity standards) for clinical development purposes in anticipation of approval by the applicable Regulatory Authority(ies) of the applicable Marketing Authorizations for commercialization of Finished Products in the Territory. The Parties hereby agree that Customer shall continue to purchase such materials and Manufacturer will continue to supply to Customer such materials through the same mechanism of ad hoc written purchase orders that may be submitted from time to time by Customer to Manufacturer for such clinical development purposes. The pricing for such materials shall be consistent with the pricing practices Manufacturer has imposed upon Customer in the past with respect to such materials and shall be at all times reasonable.

Problems with Supply. Manufacturer will promptly notify Customer of any circumstances that result or are likely to result in any failure or delay in the supply or delivery of any API. In the event that at any time Customer is not reasonably satisfied that Manufacturer will be able to meet its requirements for an API for more than [ * ] days, then Customer will have the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate this Agreement in its entirety. In addition, if at any time Customer is not reasonably satisfied that Manufacturer will be able to meet its requirements for the API for more than [ * ] days, Customer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement only with respect to such API upon written notice to Manufacturer and purchase such terminated quantities of API from a Second Source Supplier. Any such purchase of API from a Second Source Supplier shall not be used to calculate Customer’s Annual Commercial API Requirement during such year.

Inspection and Testing of API. All API received by Customer will be subject to inspection and testing by Customer in accordance with Customer’s quality assurance program within a period of [ * ] days from date of receipt of such API (“Inspection Period”). Customer will notify Manufacturer if the results of any inspection or testing indicate that API does not conform to the applicable Specifications or the other requirements of this Agreement. Manufacturer will have [ * ] business days within which to respond to Customer’s notice. Disputes between the Parties not resolved during such [ * ] business day period will be resolved by an independent cGMP laboratory reasonably acceptable to the Parties. Such laboratory will be appointed not later than [ * ] business days after the expiry of such [ * ] business day period. If the Parties, by mutual agreement, find, or if the laboratory finds, the API to be nonconforming, then at Manufacturer’s sole discretion, Manufacturer will (a) promptly deliver, at Manufacturer’s expense, replacement API that conforms to the requirements of this Agreement, or (b) refund or credit to Customer all payments made by Customer in respect of such

Initial:

- Page 9 of 28 -

non-conforming shipment. Customer will, at the Manufacturer’s sole discretion, return or destroy nonconforming API at Manufacturer’s expense, including without limitation transportation and handling costs. In the event that the independent cGMP laboratory finds the API is conforming to the requirements of this Agreement, then Customer shall reimburse Manufacturer for all direct and reasonable costs and expenses (supported by reasonably sufficient receipts and documentation) actually incurred by Manufacturer as a result of the investigation and testing process conducted by such laboratory.

10.

Regulatory Matters. Customer is responsible for filing and obtaining any Marketing Authorization that is required for the marketing and sale of a Finished Product containing or comprised of API supplied by Manufacturer; however, Manufacturer will fully cooperate with Customer in such activities. Each Party will notify the other party promptly upon becoming aware of any (a) defective, adulterated or misbranded API or of any information which may suggest that any API is or may be defective, adulterated or misbranded, and (b) API which fails to meet the Specifications, the requirements of the applicable Marketing Authorization, Applicable Law or cGMP. Manufacturer will promptly investigate and provide Customer with all reasonable assistance requested by it in connection with adverse experiences and customer complaints relating to API. Manufacturer agrees to notify Customer promptly of any inspections by the FDA or any other Regulatory Authority which pertain to the API, or the results of which pertain to any other product that have implications to the overall quality systems of the Manufacturer thereby affecting, or potentially affecting, overall manufacturing activity of the Manufacturer or the ability to supply the API to the Customer. Manufacturer will allow, and will provide Customer with any required authorization to allow, the FDA (or other Regulatory Authority) or Customer’s Quality Personnel (QA/QC) to inspect, audit and review the facilities at which the API is Manufactured and all procedures, practices, books, records, and documents to the extent requested by the FDA (or such other Regulatory Authority) or Customer Quality Personnel. Manufacturer will retain originals of all batch documentation, any and all other records or documentation generated by it in connection with the processing and testing of each API under the terms of this Agreement, and all records which may be reasonably necessary to assist Customer in the event of an API recall or adverse drug event, for the longer of (a) two (2) years after the expiration date of the batch of API to which they pertain and (b) the period required by Applicable Law.

11.	Audits.

(a)

Quality Related Audits By Customer. Customer will have the right, upon reasonable notice to Manufacturer and during normal business hours, to audit Manufacturer’s facilities and records for the API to ensure that API is being Manufactured in compliance with the Specifications, the applicable Marketing Authorization and all Applicable Laws, including without limitation cGMP, and otherwise to ascertain compliance with the terms of this Agreement and the Quality Assurance Agreement. During such audits, Manufacturer will make available to Customer the appropriate knowledgeable personnel of Manufacturer.

(b)

Financial Related Audits By Manufacturer. To monitor Customer’s compliance with Section 3(b) above, Customer shall cause its (and its Affiliates’ and their respective designees’) manufacturer(s) of Finished Products to provide on an annual basis a certified statement that sets forth (i) the total amount of Finished Product produced by such manufacturer and released by Customer (or any of its Affiliates or respective designees) for commercial use within the Territory during that year (excluding any amount of Finished Product containing API supplied by a Second Source Supplier as a result of a Force Majeure Event under Section 26 hereof or as a result of Manufacturer’s inability to supply under Section 8 hereof); (ii) what amount of such Finished Product contained API supplied by Manufacturer hereunder and (iii) what amount of Finished Product contained API supplied by a Second Source Supplier (but again excluding any amount of Finished Product containing API supplied by a Second Source Supplier as a result of a Force Majeure Event under Section 26 hereof or as a result of Manufacturer’s inability to supply under Section 8 hereof). In the event that after totaling the appropriate amounts shown in the statements from all the Second Source Suppliers, the total amount of Finished Product containing API supplied by Manufacturer is less than [ * ] percent ([ * ]%) of the total Finished Products produced and released by or on behalf of Customer (or any of its Affiliates) for commercial use within the Territory for that year, Customer shall pay to Manufacturer an amount equal to [ * ] the total [ * ] such year and the total [ * ] was the full [ * ]. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, such payment by Customer to Manufacturer shall constitute Manufacturer’s and ACIC’s sole and exclusive remedy for Customer’s non-compliance with Section 3(b) above.

(c)

Financial Related Audits By Customer. For purposes of verifying the appropriateness of any adjustments to the Purchase Price under Section 5 hereunder, Customer shall have the right to request, on thirty (30) days prior written notice to Manufacturer or ACIC, that a nationally recognized, independent accounting firm engaged by Customer and that Customer and Manufacturer mutually agree upon perform an audit or interim review of Manufacturer’s books and records as they relate to the direct costs associated with the production and supply of API by Manufacturer to Customer hereunder. The accounting firm shall be provided access to such books and records at Manufacturer’s or ACIC’s facility(ies) where such books and records are normally kept. Upon completion of the audit, the accounting firm shall provide the Parties a written report disclosing whether the Purchase Price adjustments are correct or incorrect and the specific details and supporting analysis for any discrepancies. In the event any discrepancies are reported, Manufacturer shall reimburse Customer for the expense of such audit and promptly refund to Customer any and all amounts

Initial:

- Page 11 of 28 -

overpaid by Customer due to the inappropriate Purchase Price increase by Manufacturer. In the event no discrepancies are reported, Customer shall bear the expense of such audit. Such audit hereunder shall not be performed more frequently than once per calendar year nor more frequently than once with respect to records covering any specific period of time. All information provided by Manufacturer hereunder referred to shall be used only for the purpose of verifying the Purchase Price adjustment under Section 5 hereunder and shall be treated as Manufacturer’s Information subject to the confidentiality obligations set forth in this Agreement. In the event Manufacturer in good faith disputes the findings of the audit, the Parties agree to submit such dispute to arbitration in accordance with Section 32 hereof.

12.

Recalls. In the event that (i) any government authority issues a request, directive or order that the API or Finished Product be recalled or (ii) a court of competent jurisdiction orders such a recall, or (iii) Customer determines after consultation with Manufacturer that the API or Finished Product should be recalled, the Parties shall take all appropriate corrective actions. In the event that such recall results from the failure of the API to meet the Specifications and such failure could not reasonably be detected by Customer during the Inspection Period, Manufacturer shall be responsible for all expenses of recall. In all other cases, Customer shall be responsible for the expense of recall. For purposes of this Agreement, the expenses of recall shall include without limitation the expense of notification and destruction or return of the recalled API or Finished Product.

13.

Changes in Specification. If the Specifications must be modified by requirement of a Regulatory Authority, or a process change would be required under the CMC, or other applicable governmental application, Manufacturer shall make such change in a prompt and timely manner. If such modification results in the requirement to reprocess and/or retest previously manufactured and otherwise acceptable API, any additional costs incurred by Manufacturer in such reprocessing and/or retesting shall be paid by Customer upon submission by Manufacturer of documentation and justification of such costs. Any process changes or Specification modifications pursuant to this Section 13 shall occur pursuant to change control procedures agreed upon by Manufacturer and Customer.

14.

a material misrepresentation of the other Party;

(c)

Each Party agrees to notify the other Party from whom such Party is seeking indemnification hereunder within thirty (30) days of receipt of any claims made for which such other Party might be liable under this section. The indemnifying Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, to defend, negotiate, and settle such claims. The indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such matter and to employ counsel at its expense to assist therein; provided, however, that if the indemnifying Party elects to defend the indemnified Party, the indemnifying Party shall have final decision-making authority regarding all aspects of the defense of any claim (subject to the requirement of obtaining the indemnified Party’s consent on settlement of claims set forth herein). The Party seeking indemnification shall provide the indemnifying Party with such information and assistance as the indemnifying Party may reasonably request, at the expense of the indemnifying Party. A Party hereto shall be responsible or bound by any settlement of any claim made without its prior written consent; provided, however, that the indemnified Party shall not unreasonably withhold or delay such consent.

22.

No Waiver of Rights. The failure or delay of a Party hereto to exercise any right, power, or privilege under this Agreement shall not be presumed to operate as a waiver of such right, power, or privilege of such Party thereafter to enforce each and every such right, power, or privilege on any succeeding occasion or breach of this Agreement. A single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege will not be presumed to preclude any subsequent or further exercise, of that right, power or privilege, or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

23.	Enurement. This Agreement shall enure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors, and permitted assigns.

24.

Assignment. This Agreement and any rights arising hereunder may not be assigned by either Party without the prior written consent of the other Party(ies) (each, a “Consenting Party”), and which consent may not be unreasonably or arbitrarily withheld. In the event of an assignment, such assignment shall only be effective upon approval in written form by the Consenting Party(ies). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Agreement may be assigned by Customer without the consent of the other Parties to an acquiring person or entity upon the acquisition, merger, consolidation of Customer, or of the assets or substantially all the assets by such person or entity, relating to Customer’s performance hereunder. Any permitted assignee shall assume all obligations of its assignor under this Agreement. No assignment shall relieve any party of responsibility for the performance of any accrued obligation, which such party then has hereunder. In the event of an assignment, the assigning Party shall not be released from its obligations to the Consenting Party(ies) hereunder, and shall guarantee the full performance by the assignee of such obligations.

25.

Modification. This Agreement may only be supplemented, amended, or modified by the mutual agreement of both Parties. No supplement, amendment or modification of this Agreement shall be binding on the Parties unless it is in writing and has been executed by the duly authorized representatives of each Party.

26.

Force Majeure. Any delay in the performance of any of the duties or obligations of any Party (except the payment of money due hereunder) caused by an event outside the affected Party’s reasonable control and without the fault or negligence of the Party so affected (“Force Majeure Event”) shall not be considered a breach of this Agreement, and unless provided to the contrary herein, the time required for performance shall be extended for a period equal to the period of such delay. Such Force Majeure Events shall include without limitation, acts of God; acts of the public enemy; insurrections; riots; injunctions; embargoes; labor disputes, including strikes, lockouts, job actions, or boycotts; fires; explosions; floods; earthquakes; Third Party delays in the delivery of raw materials, or other unforeseeable causes beyond the reasonable control and without the fault or negligence of the Party so affected. The Party so affected shall give prompt notice to the other Party of such cause, and shall take whatever reasonable steps are necessary to relieve the effect of such cause as rapidly as reasonably possible. For purposes of clarity, in the event a Force Majeure Event is preventing Manufacturer from manufacturing and supplying API to Customer, Customer shall have the right to purchase its requirements of API from any Second Source Supplier and such amounts of API purchased under this Section 26 during a given year shall not be factored into the calculation of Annual Commercial API Requirement for such year.

27.

Severability. In the event that any of term or the provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining terms hereof shall not be affected, but shall be valid and enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law; and if any term or provision of this Agreement shall be deemed by a court to be unenforceable because such provision is too broad in scope, such provision shall be construed to be limited in scope to the extent such court shall deem necessary to make it enforceable.

28.

Relationship of the Parties. This Agreement does not create nor shall it be deemed to create the relationship of partners or joint-venturers between the parties. Neither Party has the authority, without the prior written consent of the other Party, to create any obligation or responsibility on the part of the other Party or otherwise legally bind or obligate the other Party in any other manner.

29.

Additional Documents. Each Party agrees that it will forthwith upon the request of the other Party execute and deliver all such documents, instruments and agreements and will take all such other actions as the other Party may reasonably request from time to time in order to effectuate the provision and purposes of this Agreement.

In the event, and to the extent, of inconsistency between the various provisions of this Agreement including any schedules incorporated herein by reference, inconsistencies shall be resolved by giving the clauses of this Agreement precedence over the schedules to this Agreement.

31.

Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Quality Assurance Agreement incorporates the entire understanding of the Parties with respect to the subject matter herein and cancels, revokes and supersedes any and all previous agreements, contracts, understandings, negotiations, commitments and arrangements that might have existed heretofore between the Parties regarding the subject matter herein, and all prior agreements and understandings between the Parties and relating to the subject matter hereof are superseded by this Agreement; provided, however, that in the event that there is any conflict between the Quality Assurance Agreement and this Agreement, this Agreement shall govern to the extent of such conflict except where such conflict is directly with respect to the appropriate procedures and the Parties’ respective roles in adhering to such procedures to assure the product quality and conformance of the API (including, the testing, storage, packaging, labeling, certification, release, delivery, deviation and change notifications, communication and regulatory support therefor), in which case the Quality Assurance Agreement shall govern to the extent of such conflict. Neither Party shall be liable or bound to the other Party in any manner by any representations, warranties, or covenants relating to such subject matter except as specifically set forth herein or in the Quality Assurance Agreement.

32.

Arbitration. The Parties agree that all disputes arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, including disputes related to the existence, validity, interpretation, performance, termination or breach thereof, shall be submitted to the International Court of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce and shall be finally settled under the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce. The arbitration shall be conducted in the English language. There shall be three (3) arbitrators (the “Arbitration Tribunal”), the first of which shall be appointed by the claimant in its notice of arbitration, the second of which will be appointed by the respondent within thirty (30) days of the appointment of the first arbitrator, and the third of which will be jointly appointed by the Party appointed arbitrators within thirty (30) days thereafter. If a Party fails to nominate an arbitrator, the appointment is to be made by the International Court of Arbitration. All notices required to be given in connection with the any arbitration shall be valid and sufficient if sent in accordance with Section 20 of this Agreement. In the event of arbitration, the costs of the arbitration shall be fixed in accordance with Article 31 of the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce and the final award will have the Parties bearing the costs of arbitration in proportion to the outcome of the arbitration. If applicable under the applicable law, the Parties will submit a proposed discovery schedule to the arbitrator(s) at the pre-hearing

Initial:

conference. The scope and duration of discovery shall be reasonably determined by the arbitrators. This Agreement shall be enforceable, and any arbitration award will be final, and judgment thereon may be entered, in any court of competent jurisdiction. The Parties, their representatives, other participants and the arbitrators shall hold the existence, contents and result of arbitration in confidence, except as may be necessary to enforce any award in a court of competent jurisdiction. A Party may not appeal an award to a court of law on a question of fact or on a question of mixed fact and law. A Party may appeal an award to a court of law on a question of law.

Manufacturer hereby grants to Customer a royalty-free, perpetual, non-exclusive, non-terminable, transferable, assignable, license throughout the Territory with the right to grant sublicenses, to the Manufacturer Know-How, Manufacturer’s Information and Manufacturer Patent Rights and to any new ideas, innovations or inventions developed by Manufacturer hereunder for no other purpose than as necessary for Customer, its Affiliates and/or designees to use, sell, have sold, import/export, have imported/exported and otherwise commercialize the API manufactured by Manufacturer hereunder (and any Finished Products incorporating such API) throughout the Territory.

(c)

34.

Confidentiality. The Parties agree that during the course of this Agreement a Party hereto may disclose proprietary and confidential information of such Party (“Information”) to another Party hereto. Each Party agrees that the Information is the exclusive property of that Party (as between the Parties) disclosing such Information (the “Disclosing Party”) and that the Party receiving such Information (the “Receiving Party”) will use the Information only for the purposes as set out in this Agreement, and it will not, directly or indirectly, make use of or aid any third party to make use of such Information without the Disclosing Party’s express prior written consent.
