Except as otherwise provided herein, all forecasts made hereunder
shall be made to assist ELAN in planning its production, and THE
CLIENT in planning sales, and are not represented to be binding
purchase orders, and shall be without prejudice to THE CLIENT's
subsequent firm orders for the PRODUCT in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement.
The parties acknowledge that it is in their mutual interest that
launch of the PRODUCT be effected as soon as possible following
ANDA approval, for which, purpose the parties shall, in advance of
the ANDA approval, DISCUSS and agree on the manufacture and
purchase of specific quantities of launch stocks, (the "Launch
Stocks"). In any event and notwithstanding any firm purchase
orders for such Launch Stocks which THE CLIENT has already placed
with ELAN, ELAN will notify THE CLIENT of its receipt of a pre-
approval letter for the ANDA for the PRODUCT from the FDA and THE
CLIENT will within seven (7) days of such notification place a
firm purchase order with ELAN for its Launch Stocks which
notification shall include a copy of the FDA pre-approval letter,
unless such purchase order has been submitted to ELAN prior to
that date. With respect to Launch Stocks ELAN agrees to supply
quantities of capsules of DSDF for delivery within one hundred and
twenty (120) days of placement of purchase orders. THE CLIENT will
use its best efforts to provide forecasts for deliveries for the
balance of the year in which the ANDA is approved which it
requires in addition to the Launch Stocks, on a monthly basis at
the beginning of each month.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, ELAN
agrees to use its best efforts to fill any orders for delivery
(including Launch Stock orders) within ninety (90) days after they
are placed by THE CLIENT provided they are within 25% plus or
minus THE CLIENT's forecast which is current as of the date of the
order. Elan also will use its best efforts to fill THE CLIENT's
requirements in excess of one hundred and twenty five (125%) of
forecasted amounts.
1.2. On September 30th of the year during which the ANDA is approved,
or if after October 1, within 15 days of such approval date, THE
CLIENT shall provide a forecast for purchases for the following
calendar year. The first calendar quarter of such forecast shall
be a binding purchase commitment of THE CLIENT. At the beginning
of each calendar quarter thereafter THE CLIENT will provide a
rolling annual forecast for the period beginning on the first day
of the calendar quarter following the calendar quarter in which
the forecast is made and the first calendar quarter of such
forecast shall be a binding purchase commitment of THE CLIENT.
6.
ELAN will use its best efforts to fill THE CLIENT's requirements
in excess of one hundred and twenty five (125%) percent of
forecasted amounts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it shall be
the responsibility of ELAN to maintain reasonably adequate
inventories of the DSDF using its best efforts to satisfy the
requirements of THE CLIENT.
1.3. For all purchase orders for the PRODUCT other than the Launch
Stocks, THE CLIENT shall communicate to ELAN THE CLIENT's firm
purchase order for the PRODUCT for the quarter within forty-five
(45) days before the beginning of each calendar quarter during
the Term after approval of the ANDA by the FDA, specifying
shipment/delivery schedules within the time frames set forth in
Paragraph 1.6 hereof.
1.4. Within seven (7) days of the receipt of each such order, Elan
shall either confirm to THE CLIENT that it will meet THE CLIENT's
requirements for the quarter in accordance with the
shipment/delivery schedule, whereupon the purchase order shall be
confirmed, final and binding on the parties; or in the event of
ELAN's inability to meet such requirements or schedule, ELAN
shall notify THE CLIENT in detail as to the extent to which it
will not meet such requirements or schedule. ELAN may at such
time suggest modifications to THE CLIENT's requirements or
schedule. In the event of ELAN's suggesting any modifications,
THE CLIENT shall communicate to ELAN its acceptance or rejection,
in whole or in part, thereof within seven (7) days after THE
CLIENT's receipt of such communication, whereupon the purchase
order shall be confirmed, final and binding on the parties. To
the extent that THE CLIENT does not accept such suggested
modifications or that ELAN cannot meet THE CLIENT's requirements
or schedule, THE CLIENT may satisfy its requirements and/or
schedule for such quarter by purchasing the PRODUCT from
alternate sources as provided in Section 1.6 hereof. All
communications for the purpose of this Section 1.4 shall, to the
extent practicable, be by fax with confirmed answer back to the
other party, and only in the event of this being not possible for
any reason, will communications be in writing through overnight
courier services.
1.5. Shipments of the PRODUCT shall be made by ELAN promptly against
confirmed purchase orders placed by THE CLIENT with delivery
dates no later than one hundred twenty (120) days from the date
of THE CLIENT's placing the applicable purchase order. Products
shall be shipped F.O.B to THE CLIENT's manufacturing facility in
either the State of New York, the State of Connecticut, Puerto
Rico, or as otherwise instructed by THE CLIENT from time to time.

1.6. If at any time during the Term, ELAN is or expects that it will
be unable to satisfy THE CLIENTs requirements of the PRODUCT, in
full or in part, ELAN promptly shall so notify THE CLIENT,
detailing the extent to which it will not meet such requirements.
THE CLIENT, without limiting any other remedy available to it,
may in its discretion meet the shortfalls therein from any
alternate source or sources. THE CLIENT, without limiting any
other remedy available to it, may also purchase PRODUCT from
alternate source or sources if a lawsuit has been commenced
alleging that the import, manufacture and/or distribution of the
PRODUCT as contemplated hereby infringes any patent or
proprietary right of any other person, firm or corporation.
1.7. ELAN shall deliver the DSDF to THE CLIENT and/or any party
designated by THE CLIENT in proper bulk packaging so as to permit
safe storage and transport.
1.8. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing between the parties, ELAN
shall supply the DSDF in the form of bulk capsules and THE CLIENT
shall be responsible for the packaging of said bulk capsules into
final market packaging.
1.9. All quantities of the DSDF delivered by ELAN hereunder shall
conform to the Specifications. All claims for failure of any
shipment of the DSDF to conform to Specifications must be made to
ELAN in writing within forty-five (45) days following delivery.
Failure to make a timely claim in the manner prescribed shall
constitute acceptance of the shipment. DSDF which has been
delivered and which does not conform to specifications shall be
replaced at ELAN'S cost. In the event of an unresolved dispute as
to conformity with Specifications of the DSDF, the parties shall
nominate an independent first class laboratory to undertake the
relevant testing. Its findings shall be conclusive and binding
upon the parties. All costs relating to this process shall be
borne exclusively by the unsuccessful party. Nothing contained in
this Paragraph 1.9 shall limit ELAN's indemnification obligations
under Article VIII, paragraph 8 hereof.

For the consideration outlined in Article IV of this Agreement, ELAN shall
undertake the following programme of work.
Stage I: Laboratory-scale formulation development to provide a 200mg capsule
-------
with an in-vitro profile matching that of the NORMAL DOSAGE FORM.
This formulation will then be evaluated in a single-dose cross-over
pharmacokinetic study in up to 12 human male volunteers comparing
up to three formulations of DSDF to NORMAL DOSAGE FORM. Development
of analytical methods will be undertaken. Pilot bulk stability work
will also be undertaken in this Stage I.

COMPLETE EARLY MAY, 1995 - REPORT DUE
Stage II A: Optimisation of the laboratory-scale formulation developed and
----------
tested in Stage I. Scale-up of this optimised formulation to pilot-
scale. Product from the pilot-scale batches will be evaluated in a
single-dose cross-over pharmacokinetic specification setting study
in up to 24 human male volunteers using NORMAL DOSAGE FORM as the
reference product. Pilot bulk stability work will also be
undertaken at this stage.
Stage II B: The optimised formulation and process developed in Stage II A of
----------
the Project shall undergo Process Transfer to ELAN's manufacturing
unit with consequent further scale-up of the process to full
production - batch size. ELAN will also conduct Process Validation
and establish and validate all analytical methodology, including

DEVELOPMENT PROJECT (Continued)
-------------------------------
Note 1: It is acknowledged by the parties hereto that in order to
------
secure a timely approval of the ANDA, pivotal stability
in final commercial packaging will need to be made
available during the ANDA prosecution process, and
preferably prior to the filing of the ANDA. ELAN and THE
CLIENT shall discuss and agree separately on a programme
of work and schedule for the carrying out of this work in
a manner which shall jeopardise neither the projected
filing dates or approval dates for the ANDA. In the event
that it is agreed that ELAN shall conduct such stability
work, the parties shall pre-agree the costs therefor,
which THE CLIENT shall be obliged to pay to ELAN as non-
recoverable development fees on commencement of such
work. However, as of the date of this Agreement, it is
the intention of the parties that THE CLIENT shall
undertake all such work at its own expense and to a
schedule designed so that all such finished pack
stability data as would normally be required in a quality
abbreviated new drug application will be available to
ELAN no later than ninety (90) days from completion of
the PROJECT.
Note 2: Following the completion of each of the Stages I and II A
