For the avoidance of doubt and without prejudice to the generality of Clause

otherwise does not become payable for any reason, Amarin shall not be entitled
to any refund of amounts paid under Clause 5.1.1.
5.5. Effect on Permax Agreement:

the payments due to EP Inc.
5.6. No Refund:

(ii) the balance of the Outstanding Amounts, in each case in partial or total
discharge of the Outstanding Amounts.
6.2. Order of Application:

components of the Outstanding Amounts in such manner as Elan may direct. In the
absence of a direction by Elan, Amarin shall apply such sums in the order set
out in Clause 6.1.
6.3. Effect of Payments:
6.3.1 Sums paid pursuant to Clause 6.1 in partial discharge of the Total

Permax Agreement, that is to say against the latest payments in
time due under Section 3.01(c) thereof first.
6.3.2 Sums paid pursuant to Clause 6.1 in partial discharge of the Loan
shall be treated as prepayments under the Loan Agreement, that is
