DURA shall take such other actions as DURA and Xxxxxx Corp. II may jointly
agree upon and deem necessary, desirable or appropriate to promote and Sell
the Xxxxxx Products effectively and as contemplated by this Agreement.
2.2 ADVERTISING AND PROMOTIONAL RESPONSIBILITIES. From time to time,
but at least once each year, DURA shall develop and formulate a marketing
plan setting forth DURA's strategies and plans for pricing, marketing and
detailing Xxxxxx Products. Marketing plans shall be prepared in a manner
appropriate for product launch and consistent with sales and marketing plans
for similarly placed pharmaceutical products. The marketing plans shall be
submitted to the Board of Directors of Xxxxxx Corp. II as part of the annual
workplan and budget for approval.
2.3 TERMS OF SALE. DURA will be responsible for determining all terms
of sale, including but not limited to, policies concerning pricing, credit
terms, cash discounts and returns and allowances.
3. ROYALTIES.
3.1 ROYALTIES ON SALES OF XXXXXX PRODUCTS. Dura shall receive and
retain on its own behalf all payments by purchasers
-2-
of the Xxxxxx Products Sold by DURA hereunder. DURA hereby agrees to pay to
Xxxxxx Corp. II royalties equal to seven percent (7%) of Net Sales of each
Xxxxxx Products Sold beginning on the date of FDA Approval of such product;
provided, however, that prior to the expiration of the Albuterol Option no
royalty payment shall apply with respect to Net Sales of the Albuterol
Product.
3.2 ROYALTY PAYMENT. Royalties due on Net Sales of Xxxxxx Products
shall be paid quarterly in arrears, on or before the forty-fifth (45th) day
following the end of each calendar quarter. Acceptance by Xxxxxx Corp. II of
any payment remitted hereunder, whether or not the amount shall be in
dispute, shall not constitute acceptance by Xxxxxx Corp. II of the account or
schedules on which such payment is based.
3.3 SINGLE ROYALTY. All sales of Xxxxxx Products among DURA, its
Affiliates and any of their sublicensees shall be disregarded for purposes of
computing royalties under this Section 3, but in such instances royalties
shall be payable only upon sales to unlicensed third parties unless such
other sales were for purposes of end use, rather than for resale. Nothing
contained herein shall obligate DURA to pay Xxxxxx Corp. II more than one
royalty on any unit of Xxxxxx Products sold.
3.4 LATE PAYMENTS. DURA shall pay interest to Xxxxxx Corp. II on the
aggregate amount of any amounts payable by DURA that are not paid on or
before the date such payments are due under this Agreement at a rate per
annum equal to the lesser of the prime rate of interest as reported by
Citibank, N.A., New York, from time to time, plus two percent (2%), or the
highest rate permitted by applicable law, calculated on the number of days
such payment is delinquent.
4. ACCOUNTING AND STATEMENTS.
4.1 ROYALTY STATEMENTS. DURA shall keep, and cause its Affiliates, if
any, to keep true and accurate accounts of all royalties payable to Xxxxxx
Corp. II under the Agreement and DURA shall deliver or cause to be delivered
to Xxxxxx Corp. II written statements of royalties due on or before the
forty-fifth (45th) day following the end of each calendar quarter and at the
same time shall pay Xxxxxx Corp. II the amount of such royalties shown to be
due pursuant to Section 3. Such reports shall show in reasonably specific
detail: (a) the gross sales of each Xxxxxx Product sold by DURA, its
Affiliates and sublicensees during the reporting period and the calculation
of Net Sales from such gross sales; (b) the royalties payable in United
States dollars, if any, which shall have accrued hereunder based upon Net
Sales of Xxxxxx Products; (c) the withholding taxes, if any, required by law
to be deducted in respect of such sales; and (d) the date of the first
commercial sale of each Xxxxxx Product.
-3-
4.2 RECORDS. DURA shall keep, and cause its Affiliates and sublicensees,
if any, to keep accurate records in sufficient detail to be able to determine
the amount of royalties payable. Xxxxxx Corp. II shall have the right at its
own expense to have an independent certified public accounting firm examine the
relevant books and records of account of DURA, any of its Affiliates or
sublicensees during reasonable business hours not more often than once during
each calendar year, to determine whether appropriate accounting and payment of
royalties have been made during the preceding two (2) calendar years. This
independent certified public accounting firm shall treat as confidential and
shall not disclose to Xxxxxx Corp. II any information other than information
which is needed or proper to support the information required to be given to
Xxxxxx Corp. II pursuant to this Agreement. If such accounting firm concludes
that additional royalties were owed during such period, DURA shall pay the
additional royalties within thirty (30) days of the date Xxxxxx Corp. II
delivers to DURA such accounting firm's written report so concluding. The fees
charged by such accounting firm shall be paid by Xxxxxx Corp. II; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, if the audit discloses that the royalties payable by DURA for the
audited period are more than one hundred five percent (105%) of the royalties
actually paid for such period, then DURA shall pay the reasonable fees and
expenses charged by such accounting firm.
4.3 SUBLICENSEE RECORDS. DURA shall include in each permitted sublicense
granted by it pursuant to this Agreement or the License Agreement a provision
requiring the sublicensee to make reports to DURA, to keep and maintain records
of sales made pursuant to such sublicense and to grant access to such records by
Xxxxxx Corp. II's independent accountant to the same extent required of DURA
under this Agreement.
5. MANUFACTURING AND SALE RECORDS. DURA shall keep, maintain, update and
preserve for the benefit of Xxxxxx Corp. II true, accurate and complete
records of all efforts made by DURA pursuant to this Agreement, including,
without limitation, records of current and prospective customer contacts,
status of sales programs, advertising efforts, promotion efforts, market
feedback, marketing strategy, distribution, business leads and sales leads
("Records"). Upon written request of Xxxxxx Corp. II or upon the termination
of this Agreement, copies of the Records shall be sent by DURA to Xxxxxx
Corp. II within sixty (60) days of such request or termination.
6. MANUFACTURING PRACTICES.

and regulations and all applicable good manufacturing practices, as
prescribed from time to time by the FDA and other applicable worldwide
regulatory authorities, using the specifications, manufacturing methods and
formulae as agreed upon by DURA and Xxxxxx Corp. II in writing.
6.2 INSPECTION OF MANUFACTURING FACILITIES. DURA or its subcontractor
shall permit Xxxxxx Corp. II and its duly authorized agents, at Xxxxxx Corp.
II's sole expense, to enter DURA's or its subcontractor's premises, upon
