The calculation of the increase of the Producer Price Index shall be based on the difference between the most recently available Producer Price Index on the Effective Date and on each Measurement Date thereafter for the duration of the Term. LMI will pay any invoice submitted by COV under this provision within **** (****) days of receipt.
(f) Pre-payment of Cost of Intermediates. Effective as of the first day of each Calendar Quarter beginning April 1, 2010, and continuing for the remainder of the Term, LMI will pay COV an amount equal to (i) $**** / kg multiplied by (ii) the quantity of Drug Substance and Ligand Excipient required to be used by COV in the formulation of Product that is scheduled for delivery in the next following Calendar
Quarter. For purposes of example only, the amount owed by LMI on April 1, 2010, would be determined by reference to the quantity of Product scheduled for delivery by COV to LMI in the Calendar Quarter beginning July 1, 2010. The amount of each pre-payment will be deducted from the amount payable by LMI upon actual delivery of the corresponding Product.
(g) Superiority of Agreement. The terms of this Agreement and of the Quality Agreements shall prevail over any inconsistent terms in any purchase order, acknowledgment or invoice, and no additional terms other than those set forth in this Agreement and the Quality Agreements or allowed pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.4 in a purchase order, acknowledgement or invoice shall be binding on either Party.

COV shall notify LMI of the amount of Product, Drug Substance, Ligand Excipient and intermediates it has on hand as of the effective date of any termination or expiration as a result of purchase orders placed by LMI, and LMI shall purchase such Product, Drug Substance, Ligand Excipient and intermediates at the applicable price as set forth in this Agreement (or at COV’s cost with respect to intermediates), but LMI shall not be required to purchase any Product, Drug Substance, Ligand Excipient or intermediates (i) that fails to meet Specifications, (ii) for which COV is unable to provide the certificates of analysis specified in Section 5.4 of this Agreement, (iii) for which COV is unable to provide the certificates of manufacturing compliance specified in Section 5.5, or (iv) that is appropriately rejected by LMI pursuant to Section 5.6.
(b) Regulatory Information. On and as of the effective date of any termination or expiration, or such earlier date as LMI may reasonably request prior to an upcoming
termination or expiration, COV shall, promptly transfer to LMI or its nominee all information and Technology in COV’s possession and used in connection with the manufacture of the Product, Drug Substance and Ligand Excipient, all information and Technology relevant to specific methods of Product, Drug Substance and Ligand Excipient manufacture or Product characterization, all information relevant to obtaining an FDA regulatory approval and any other applicable regulatory approval of the Product, all information contained in COV’s regulatory submissions in connection with the development and approval of the Product, and all other information relating to the manufacture of the Product, Drug Substance and Ligand Excipient, which is useful to enable LMI or a third party to manufacture and obtain regulatory approval for the Product for commercial sale. LMI and its nominees may only use any information or Technology received pursuant to this Section 3.4(b) in connection with the Product.
(c) Orders in Progress. In the event of any termination or expiration of this Agreement, COV shall, unless such termination has occurred because of a material uncured default by LMI under this Agreement, notwithstanding the effective date of any termination or expiration, complete any purchase orders for Product, Drug Substance or Ligand Excipient that were placed by LMI and accepted by COV prior to such date and LMI shall pay COV for any Product, Drug Substance or Ligand Excipient produced in accordance with such purchase orders at the applicable price as set forth in this Agreement.
(d) Post-Termination Acceptance of Orders. Any acceptance by COV of any purchase order from LMI or the sale of any Products by COV to LMI after the delivery of notice of termination or after the expiration or termination of the Term shall not be construed as a renewal or extension of this Agreement or as a waiver of termination thereof.
(e) Prior Obligations. Termination or expiration of this Agreement, in whole or in part, for any reason shall be without prejudice to any rights which shall have accrued to the benefit of either Party prior to such termination or expiration, and such termination or expiration shall not relieve either Party from obligations which are expressly indicated to survive termination or expiration of the Term.
4. REGULATORY ISSUES.
4.1 Regulatory Obligations. All obligations relating to the Product NDA and DMF shall, at all times during the Term, remain with LMI, including without limitation (A) the obligation to prepare and make any updates or amendments to the Product NDA, DMF or CMC, (B) to pay any fees or other costs associated with such filings or otherwise relating to the Product, or (C) to collect, investigate and report to the FDA and other appropriate regulatory authorities any Product-related adverse drug experience reports, quality reports, and complaint reports. COV shall provide LMI with access to any such information reasonably required to enable LMI to comply with its obligations under this Section 4.1. COV shall remain solely responsible at its expense during the Term for compliance with (A) cGMPs (including any comparable requirements imposed by foreign authorities, but limited to those jurisdictions that are within the Territory as set forth in any amendment to this Agreement); (B) obtaining or
maintaining establishment registrations and all other required permits and licenses for all relevant facilities; and (C) the preparation and submission of all records and reports required by FDA and other appropriate regulatory authorities in connection with the manufacture and sale to LMI of the Drug Substance, Ligand Excipient and Product.
4.2 Product Recalls.
(a) If either Party reasonably decides or is required by any government authority or court of competent jurisdiction, to initiate a product recall, withdrawal or field correction with respect to, or if there is any governmental seizure of, the Product, the Party initiating or required to initiate such action will notify the other Party promptly of the details regarding such action, including providing copies of all relevant documentation concerning such action. The Parties will assist each other in investigating any such situation and all regulatory contacts that are made and all activities concerning seizure, recall, withdrawal or field correction will be jointly coordinated by COV and LMI.
(b) If any such recall, withdrawal, field correction or seizure occurs due solely to (i) failure of any Product produced by COV hereunder to conform to Specifications (including, without limitation, being adulterated or misbranded) or any warranty or other requirement set forth in this Agreement, (ii) the failure of COV to comply in all material respects with any applicable law, rule, regulation, standard, court order or decree or (iii) the negligent or intentional wrongful act or omission of COV in connection with the production of Product hereunder, then COV shall bear the full cost and expense of any such seizure, recall, withdrawal or field correction and shall reimburse LMI for any purchase price payments made to COV and related taxes to the extent related to such Product. If any such recall, withdrawal, field correction or seizure occurs solely for any reason other than that set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, then LMI shall bear the full cost and expense of any such seizure, recall, withdrawal or field correction. If both COV and LMI contribute to the cause of a seizure, recall, withdrawal or field correction, the cost and expense thereof will be shared in proportion to each Party’s contribution to the problem. For the purposes of this Agreement, the expenses of any recall, withdrawal, field correction or seizure shall include, without limitation, the out-of-pocket expenses of notification and destruction or return of the recalled Product and all other out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection with such recall, but shall not include lost profits of either Party under any circumstances or any administrative or overhead charge.
4.3 Sharing of Information. Each Party shall promptly advise the other Party of any information of which it obtains knowledge that may affect the safety, efficacy or labelling of the Products and any actions in response to such information.
5. WARRANTIES AND QUALITY ASSURANCE
5.1 COV Warranties. COV warrants that all Drug Substance, Ligand Excipient and Product delivered to LMI: (a) will have been manufactured, packaged, labeled, tested and/or re-tested in compliance with applicable provisions of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act (the “Act”), regulations thereunder, and any other comparable laws and regulations applicable in the Territory, relating to manufacture and supply under this Agreement, and in compliance with the
specific U.S. or other applicable regulatory approvals regarding the Drug Substance, Ligand Excipient and/or Product; (b) shall conform to the Specifications; and (c) will, at the time of such delivery, not be adulterated within the meaning of the Act or other applicable law, as such Act or law is constituted and effective at the time of delivery, and will not be an article which may not, under the provisions of such Act, be introduced into interstate commerce.

5.2 LMI Warranties. LMI warrants that the marketing, distribution and sale of the Products in the Territory shall at all times comply with the Act and all other applicable laws, rules and regulations.
5.3 DISCLAIMER OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES.

5.4 Certificates of Analysis. COV shall perform, or cause to be performed, sample tests on each Lot or Batch of Drug Substance, Ligand Excipient or Product supplied pursuant to this Agreement before delivery to LMI, and shall produce a test report setting forth the results of such testing. Each test report shall set forth, for each Lot or Batch of Drug Substance, Ligand Excipient or Product delivered hereunder, the items tested, specifications and test results in a certificate of analysis, containing the types of information reasonably agreed upon by COV and LMI. COV shall send such certificates to LMI concurrent with delivery of each Lot or Batch of Drug Substance. In addition, if LMI orders Ligand Excipient or Product, COV shall send such certificates to LMI concurrent with delivery of these items.
5.5 Certificates of Manufacturing Compliance. COV shall provide or cause to be provided for each Lot or Batch of Drug Substance, Ligand Excipient or Product purchased under this Agreement a certificate of manufacturing compliance, containing the type of information reasonably agreed upon by COV and LMI, which will certify that the Lot or Batch of Drug Substance, Ligand Excipient or Product was manufactured in accordance with the Specifications and cGMP, including without limitation 21 CFR 210 and 211 and ICH Q7, as the same may be amended from time to time. COV agrees that it shall maintain all of the facilities used for the manufacture of the Drug Substance, Ligand Excipient or Product in accordance with all applicable FDA, state, local, and federal laws and regulations and shall permit the FDA to inspect the manufacturing facilities used for the manufacture of the Drug Substance, Ligand Excipient or Product whenever deemed necessary by such regulatory agency. COV shall advise LMI immediately if an authorized agent of the FDA visits any of COV’s facilities where the Drug Substance, Ligand Excipient or Product is being manufactured, or where any component of the Drug Substance, Ligand Excipient or Product is manufactured, processed or controlled, or of any official contact concerning the Drug Substance, Ligand Excipient or Product. COV shall furnish to LMI the report by such agency of such visit to the extent that such report relates to the Drug Substance, Ligand Excipient or Product, within (i) forty eight (48) hours of COV’s receipt of such report if such report relates to urgent matters such as Product recall, facility shutdown or
similar events (“Urgent Incident”) and (ii) five (5) business days after COV’s receipt of such report for other matters. Upon reasonable advance notice to COV, COV shall allow LMI and its consultants reasonable access during normal business hours throughout the Term to any of COV’s facilities where the Drug Substance, Ligand Excipient or Product is being manufactured, or where any component of the Drug Substance, Ligand Excipient or Product is manufactured, processed or controlled to verify compliance with COV’s obligations under this Agreement; provided that such access shall be limited to once during any consecutive twelve (12) months, except in the event of an Urgent Incident, in which event COV shall allow LMI and its consultants reasonable access during normal business hours as necessary to allow LMI to evaluate COV’s planned response to the Urgent Incident.
5.6 Acceptance.
(a) LMI shall have **** (****) days from the date of receipt of both the shipment of Drug Substance, Ligand Excipient or Product and the corresponding certificate of manufacturing compliance to confirm conformance with the Specifications and to claim any shortage in quantity of any shipment of the Drug Substance, Ligand Excipient or Product. Any notice of rejection or shortage of any shipment of Drug Substance, Ligand Excipient or Product must be given in writing, must contain a report of the reason for such rejection or shortage and be received by COV within said **** (****) day period or such shipment will be deemed to have been accepted; provided, however that this limitation shall not apply to hidden defects, it being understood that in that case LMI shall have **** (****) days from the date it becomes aware or reasonably should have become aware of any hidden defect to reject any Drug Substance, Ligand Excipient or Product in accordance with applicable terms and conditions hereof. COV shall assist in necessary analytical Technology transfers to accomplish such testing by LMI.
(b) In the event of a rejection or shortage as set forth in Section 5.6(a) above, upon LMI’s request, COV shall replace such Drug Substance, Ligand Excipient or Product as soon as commercially practicable, but in no event later than the following Calendar Quarter, provided that if COV is unable to replace the rejected Drug Substance, Ligand Excipient or Product within such time period, then LMI shall have the right to recover such damages from COV as may be provided by law (subject to the provisions of Section 9.6). COV shall make arrangements with LMI for the return or disposal of any rejected Product, Drug Substance or Ligand Excipient, such return shipping or disposal charges to be paid by COV.
5.7 Quality Agreements. The Parties agree that they will enter into one or more separate Quality Agreements that will cover arrangements for quality control, testing documentation, quality assurance and other related matters no later than thirty (30) days after the Effective Date. The Parties acknowledge that stability testing for Product manufactured during the Term will continue after termination or expiration of the Agreement for the Product’s remaining shelf life, unless LMI decides in its sole discretion to undertake such stability testing or to assign such responsibilities to a third party. LMI will reimburse COV for such post-termination or post-expiration stability testing in an amount equal to COV’s actual reasonable testing costs (including employee time) plus **** percent (****%).
6. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY; NONDISCLOSURE; CONFIDENTIALITY
6.1 Intellectual Property.
(a) As between the Parties, subject to the licenses granted under Section 6.1(b) below, each Party retains all right, title and interest in and to the Intellectual Property and Technology that each Party currently owns and/or uses to the extent related to the purposes of this Agreement (“Pre-Existing Intellectual Property and Technology”). Under no circumstances will the licenses granted in Section 6.1(b) below be construed as a sale of any of the Pre-Existing Intellectual Property and Technology by either Party. As between the Parties, each Party shall, subject to the licenses granted in Section 6.1(b) below, own all right, title and interest in and to any modifications, derivative works, enhancements or improvements of or to any of the Pre-Existing Intellectual Property and Technology related to this Agreement (“Improvements”) that such Party creates, develops, discovers, conceives and/or reduces to practice during the Term. The Parties shall jointly own all inventions and developments, whether modifications, derivative works, enhancements or improvements to any Intellectual Property and/or Technology related to this Agreement, which are jointly created or developed during the Term.
(b) COV grants to LMT as of the date of receipt by COV of the Technology Transfer Notice, a non-exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable and royalty-free license, with right to sublicense, in and to all COV-owned (i) Pre-Existing Intellectual Property and Technology and (ii) Improvements for use solely in connection with the Product. This license shall survive any expiration or termination of the Agreement and shall be included within the scope of the Technology transfer set forth in Section 2.7.
6.2 Nondisclosure Obligations.
(a) Except as otherwise specifically contemplated by Section 2.7 or as provided in this Article 6, during the Term of this Agreement and for a period of five (5) years thereafter, both Parties shall maintain in confidence (i.e., not disclose to any third party) and use only for purposes specifically authorized under this Agreement confidential information and data received from the other Party, whether such information is contained in a written or electronic document, whether it is oral or whether it is disclosed by means of inspection.
(b) For purposes of this Article 6, information and data described in clause (a) shall be referred to as “Information.” To the extent it is reasonably necessary or appropriate to fulfill its obligations or exercise its rights under this Agreement, a Party may disclose Information it is otherwise obligated under this Section not to disclose, to its Affiliates, employees, officers, directors, lenders, sublicensees, consultants, outside contractors and clinical investigators on a need-to-know basis and on condition that such entities or persons agree in writing to keep the Information confidential for the same time periods and to the same extent as such Party is required to keep the Information confidential; notwithstanding the foregoing the Party so disclosing Information will be liable to the other Party hereunder for any misuse or improper disclosure of any such Information by any such firms or individuals. A Party or its sublicensees may disclose such Information to government or other regulatory authorities to the extent that such disclosure is reasonably necessary to obtain patents or authorizations to conduct clinical
trials of, and to commercially market, the Product. The obligation not to disclose Information shall not apply to any part of such Information that (i) is or becomes part of the public domain other than by unauthorized acts of the Party obligated not to disclose such Information or its Affiliates or sublicensees, (ii) can be shown by written documents to have been disclosed to the receiving Party or its Affiliates or sublicensees by a third party, provided such Information was not obtained by such third party directly or indirectly from the other Party under this Agreement pursuant to a confidentiality agreement, (iii) prior to disclosure under this Agreement can be shown by written documents to have been already in the possession of the receiving Party or its Affiliates or sublicensees, provided such Information was not obtained directly or indirectly from the other Party under this Agreement pursuant to a confidentiality agreement, (iv) can be shown by written documents to have been independently developed by the receiving Party or its Affiliates without breach of any of the provisions of this Agreement, or (v) is disclosed by the receiving Party pursuant to oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand of a court or governmental agency, provided that the receiving Party notifies the other Party immediately upon receipt of any such official requests (and provided that the disclosing Party furnishes only that portion of the Information which is legally required). The Party asserting the applicability of one of the exclusions set forth in the immediately preceding sentence shall have the burden of proving the applicability of any such exclusion in any particular circumstance.
6.3 Terms of this Agreement.
(a) LMI and COV each agree not to disclose, whether by press release or in any other manner, the existence of this Agreement or any terms or conditions of this Agreement, to any third party without the prior written consent of the other Party or except as required by applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, each Party may disclose the terms and conditions of this Agreement to a lender or third party to which it is considering transferring all or substantially all of its interest in the assets to which this Agreement relates; provided, however, that such lender or third party executes a confidentiality agreement by which such lender or third party is bound to hold the disclosed information in confidence.
(b) The Parties shall agree in good faith upon the substance of Information that can be used as a routine reference in the usual course of business to describe the terms of this transaction and each of them may disclose such Information, as modified by mutual agreement from time to time, without the other Party’s consent.
6.4 Injunctive Relief. The Parties hereto understand and agree that remedies at law may be inadequate to protect against any breach of any of the provisions of this Article 6 by a Party or its employees, agents, officers or directors or any other person acting in concert with it or on its behalf. Accordingly, each Party shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief or any other equitable relief appropriate under the circumstances by a court of competent jurisdiction against or with respect to any action that constitutes any such breach of this Article 6.
7. INDEMNIFICATION; INSURANCE.
7.1 By COV. COV will indemnify and hold LMI and its Affiliates, their directors, officers, agents and employees harmless against any and all liability, damages, losses, costs or expenses, including without limitation, reasonable fees and disbursement of attorneys (collectively, “Liability”) resulting from any third party claims made or suits brought against them to the extent such Liability arises from (i) COV’s negligence or willful misconduct in the manufacture, storage, packaging, labeling, handling or shipping of the Drug Substance, Ligand Excipient or Product or (ii) COV’s breach of any warranty set forth in Section 5.1.
7.2 By LMI. LMI will indemnify and hold COV and its Affiliates, their directors, officers, agents and employees harmless against any and all Liability resulting from (i) any packaging or labeling of any Product to the extent that such packaging or labeling has been supplied by or at the direction of LMI and applied in accordance with instructions from LMI, (ii) any third party claims made or suits brought against COV to the extent such Liability arises from LMI’s negligence or willful misconduct in the storage, packaging, labeling, handling, shipping, use, marketing, distribution or sale of the Drug Substance, Ligand Excipient or Product, (iii) any third party claims made or suits brought against COV for bodily injury, death or property damage arising out of or in connection with the use of any Product supplied under this Agreement except to the extent such damage arises from COV’s negligence or willful misconduct in the manufacture, storage, handling or shipping of the Product or COV’s breach of any express warranty set forth in Section 5.1, or (iv) a breach of a representation or warranty made by LMI to its customers or users with respect to the Drug Substance, Ligand Excipient or Product other than the representations or warranties contained in Section 5.2 above.
7.3 Conditions of Indemnification. A Party or any of its Affiliates or their respective directors, officers, employees or agents (the “Indemnitee”) that intends to claim indemnification under this Article 7 shall promptly notify the other Party (the “Indemnitor”) of any Liability in respect of which the Indemnitee intends to claim such indemnification reasonably promptly after the Indemnitee is aware thereof, and the Indemnitor shall assume the defense of any related third party action, suit or proceeding with counsel mutually satisfactory to the Parties; provided, however, that an Indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own counsel and participate in the defense thereof at its own cost and expense. The indemnity agreement in this Article 7 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any claim, loss, damage or expense if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Indemnitor, which consent shall not be withheld unreasonably. The failure of an Indemnitee to deliver notice to the Indemnitor within a reasonable time after becoming aware of any such matter, if prejudicial to the Indemnitor’s ability to defend such action, shall relieve the Indemnitor of any liability to the Indemnitee under this Article 7. The Indemnitee under this Article 7 and its directors, officers, employees and agents shall cooperate fully with the Indemnitor and its legal representatives in the investigation and defense of any matter covered by this indemnification.
7.4 Insurance. LMI and COV will each, at its own cost and expense, obtain and maintain in full force and effect, during the term of this Agreement and for a period of one year following the expiration or other termination of this Agreement, commercial general liability insurance either through self-insurance or with an insurance carrier generally acceptable to the other Party, with limits of liability, including excess coverage, of not less than $20,000,000 combined single limit bodily injury and property damage covering its duties and obligations under the Agreement.
8. ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION.
(a) The Parties will attempt in good faith to resolve any controversy, claim or dispute (“Dispute”) arising out of or relating to this Agreement promptly by negotiations. Any such Dispute which is not settled by the Parties within thirty (30) days after notice of such Dispute is given by one Party to the other in writing shall be referred to a senior executive of LMI and a senior executive of COV who are authorized to settle such Disputes on behalf of their respective companies (“Senior Executives”). If the Dispute has not been resolved within thirty (30) days after the end of the thirty (30) day negotiation period referred to above (which period may be extended by mutual agreement), subject to any rights to injunctive relief and unless otherwise specifically provided for herein, any Dispute may be settled by binding arbitration as described in subsection (b) below, if the Parties so choose. However, unless the Parties agree to submit any such Dispute to binding arbitration, they shall have the right to seek any relief available at law or equity from court of competent jurisdiction for resolution of any such Dispute.
(b) Any Dispute which is not resolved by the Parties within the time period described in subsection (a) and which the Parties agree to submit to arbitration shall be settled by final and binding arbitration to be conducted by a three person arbitration panel in Chicago, Illinois, pursuant to the then-existing Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association. The decision or award of the arbitration panel shall be final, and judgment upon such decision or award may be entered in any competent court or application may be made to any competent court for judicial acceptance of such decision or award and an order of enforcement. The arbitration panel shall allocate the costs of the arbitration to one or both of the Parties as it sees fit.
(c) Nothing contained in this Section or any other provision of this Agreement shall be construed to limit or preclude a Party from bringing an action in any court of competent jurisdiction for injunctive or other provisional relief to compel the other Party to comply with its obligations hereunder before or during the pendency of mediation or arbitration proceedings.
9. MISCELLANEOUS.
9.1 Relationship of the Parties. In making and performing this Agreement, the Parties are acting, and intend to be treated, as independent entities and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed or implied to create an agency, partnership, joint venture, or employer and employee relationship between LMI and COV.

* These quantities reflect the minimum committed volumes (in kgs.) specified in Section 2.4(c) to be shipped in the corresponding Calendar Quarter. Not later than ****, LMI will notify COV whether LMI will increase the Minimum Volumes for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Calendar Quarters of 2012 to **** kg.
