(a) The Parties agree to use good faith efforts to hold a non-binding mediation in accordance with The CPR Medication Procedure then in effect of the CPR Institute for Dispute Resolution (“CPR”) available at xxx.xxxxxx.xxx/x_xxxxxx.xxx with respect to any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or related to this Agreement, or the interpretation, application, breach, termination or validity thereof, including any claim of inducement by fraud or otherwise (a “Dispute”), which claim would, but for this Section 13.3, be submitted to arbitration under Section 13.4.  The mediation shall be conducted in New York City, Borough of Manhattan and shall be attended by a senior executive with authority to resolve the Dispute from each Person that is a Party.

52

(b) The mediator shall be neutral, independent, disinterested and shall be selected from a professional mediation firm such as ADR Associates or JAMS/ENDISPUTE or CPR.

(c) The mediator shall confer with the Parties to design procedures to conclude the mediation within no more than forty-five (45) days after initiation of the mediation.  Under no circumstances may the commencement of arbitration under Section 13.4 be delayed by more than forty-five (45) days by the mediation process specified herein absent contrary agreement of the Parties.

(d) Each Party agrees not to use the period or pendency of the mediation to disadvantage the other Party procedurally or otherwise.  No statements made by either Party during the mediation may be used by the other Party or referred to by the other Party during any subsequent proceedings.

(e) Each Party has the right to pursue provisional relief from any court, such as attachment, preliminary injunction, replevin, etc., to avoid irreparable harm, maintain the status quo, or preserve the subject matter of the arbitration, even though the mediation has not been commenced or completed.

Section 13.4 Arbitration.

(a) Any Dispute that cannot be resolved by mediation within forty-five (45) days of notice by one Party to the other of the existence of a Dispute shall be submitted for resolution to arbitration pursuant to the rules then pertaining of the CPR Institute for Dispute Resolution for Non-Administered Arbitration (available at xxx.xxxxxx.xxx/xxx-xxxxx.xxxx) or successor, except where those rules conflict with this Section 13.4, in which case this Section 13.4 controls.  The arbitration shall be conducted in New York, New York.

(b) The panel shall consist of three (3) arbitrators chosen from the CPR Panels of Distinguished Neutrals (or, by agreement, from another provider of arbitrators) each of whom is a lawyer with at least fifteen (15) years’ experience with a law firm or corporate law department of over twenty-five (25) lawyers or who was a judge of a court of general jurisdiction.  In the event the aggregate damages sought by the claimant are stated to be less than $5 million, and the aggregate damages sought by the counterclaimant are stated to be less than $5 million, and neither side seeks equitable relief, then a single arbitrator shall be chosen, having the same qualifications and experience specified above.  Each arbitrator shall be neutral, independent, disinterested, impartial and shall abide by The CPR-Georgetown Commission Proposed Model Rule for the Lawyer as Neutral available at xxx.xxxxxx.xxx/xxx-xxxxxx.xxxx.

53

(c) The Parties agree to cooperate (i) to attempt to select the arbitrator(s) by agreement within forty-five (45) days of initiation of the arbitration, including jointly interviewing the final candidates, (ii) to meet with the arbitrator(s) within forty-five (45) days of selection and (iii) to agree at that meeting or before upon procedures for discovery and as to the conduct of the hearing which shall result in the hearing being concluded within no more than nine (9) months after selection of the arbitrator(s) and in the award being rendered within sixty (60) days of the conclusion of the hearings, or of any post hearing briefing, which briefing shall be completed by both sides within forty-five (45) days after the conclusion of the hearings.

(d) In the event the Parties cannot agree upon selection of the arbitrator(s), the CPR will select arbitrator(s) as follows: CPR shall provide the Parties with a list of no less than twenty-five (25) proposed arbitrators (fifteen (15), if a single arbitrator is to be selected) having the credentials referenced in Section 13.4(b).  Within twenty-five (25) days of receiving such list, the Company and Distributor shall rank at least sixty-five percent (65%) of the proposed arbitrators on the initial CPR list, after exercising cause challenges.  The Company and Distributor may then interview the five (5) candidates (three (3), if a single arbitrator is to be selected) with the highest combined rankings for no more than one hour each and, following the interviews, may exercise one peremptory challenge each.  The panel shall consist of the remaining three (3) candidates (or one, if one arbitrator is to be selected) with the highest combined rankings.  In the event these procedures fail to result in selection of the required number of arbitrators, CPR shall select the appropriate number of arbitrators from among the members of the various CPR Panels of Distinguished Neutrals, allowing each side challenges for cause and three (3) peremptory challenges each.

(e) In the event the Parties cannot agree upon procedures for discovery and conduct of the hearing meeting the schedule set forth in Section 13.4(c), then the arbitrator(s) shall set dates for the hearing, any post hearing briefing, and the issuance of the award in accord with the schedule set forth in Section 13.4(c).  The arbitrator(s) shall provide for discovery according to those time limits, giving recognition to the understanding of the Parties that they contemplate reasonable discovery, including document demands and depositions, but that such discovery be limited so that the schedule set forth in Section 13.4(c) may be met without difficulty.  In no event shall the arbitrator(s), absent agreement of the Parties, allow more than a total of ten (10) days for the hearing or permit either side to obtain more than a total of forty (40) hours of deposition testimony from all witnesses, including both fact and expert witnesses, or serve more than twenty (20) individual requests for documents, including subparts, or twenty (20) individual requests for admission or interrogatories, including subparts.  Multiple hearing days shall be scheduled consecutively to the greatest extent possible.

(f) The arbitrator(s) must render their award by application of the substantive law of New York and are not free to apply “amiable compositeur” or “natural justice and equity.”  The arbitrator(s) shall render a written opinion setting forth findings of fact and conclusions of law with the reasons therefor stated.  A transcript of the evidence

54

adduced at the hearing shall be made and shall, upon request, be made available to either Party.  The arbitrator(s) shall have power to exclude evidence on grounds of hearsay, prejudice beyond its probative value, redundancy, or irrelevance and no award shall be overturned by reason of such ruling on evidence.  To the extent possible, the arbitration hearings and award shall be maintained in confidence.

(g) In the event the panel’s award exceeds $5 million in monetary damages or includes or consists of equitable relief, or rejects a claim in excess of that amount or for that relief, then the losing Party may obtain review of the arbitrators’ award or decision by a single appellate arbitrator (the “Appeal Arbitrator”) selected from the CPR Panels of Distinguished Neutrals and pursuant to selection procedures specified in Section 13.4(b) above.  If CPR cannot provide such services, the Parties shall together select another provider of arbitration services that can.  No Appeal Arbitrator shall be selected unless he or she can commit to rendering a decision within forty five (45) days following oral argument as provided in this Section 13.4(g).  Any such review must be initiated within thirty (30) days following the rendering of the award referenced in Section 13.4(f) above.

(h) The Appeal Arbitrator shall make the same review of the arbitration panel’s ruling and its bases that the U.S. Court of Appeals of the Circuit where the arbitration hearings are held would make of findings of fact and conclusions of law rendered by a district court after a bench trial and then modify, vacate or affirm the arbitration panel’s award or decision accordingly, or remand to the panel for further proceedings.  The Appeal Arbitrator shall consider only the arbitration panel’s findings of fact and conclusions of law, pertinent portions of the hearing transcript and evidentiary record as submitted by the Parties, opening and reply briefs of the Party pursuing the review, and the answering brief of the opposing Party, plus a total of no more than four (4) hours of oral argument evenly divided between the Parties.  The Party seeking review must submit its opening brief and any reply brief within seventy five (75) and one hundred thirty (130) days, respectively, following the date of the award under review, whereas the opposing Party must submit its responsive brief within one hundred ten (110) days of that date.  Oral argument shall take place within five (5) months after the date of the award under review, and the Appeal Arbitrator shall render a decision within forty-five (45) days following oral argument.  That decision shall be final and not subject to further review, except pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §1 et seq..

(i) The Parties consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the district in which the arbitration is held for the enforcement of these provisions and the entry of judgment on any award rendered hereunder (including after review by the Appeal Arbitrator where such an appeal is pursued).  Should such court for any reason lack jurisdiction, any court with jurisdiction shall act in the same fashion.

(j) Each Party has the right before or, if the arbitrator(s) cannot hear the matter within an acceptable period, during the arbitration to seek and obtain from the appropriate court provisional remedies such as attachment, preliminary injunction,

55

replevin, etc. to avoid irreparable harm, maintain the status quo, or preserve the subject matter of the arbitration.

(k)        EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES ANY CLAIM TO PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR MULTIPLIED DAMAGES FROM THE OTHER.

(l)         EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES ANY CLAIM OF CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES FROM THE OTHER.

(m)       NOTWITHSTANDING Section 10.1 AND Section 10.2, EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES ANY CLAIM FOR ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND COSTS AND PREJUDGMENT INTEREST FROM THE OTHER.

Section 13.5           Publicity.  The Parties covenant and agree that, except as provided for herein below, each Party will not, from and after the date hereof, originate any publicity or other announcement (whether written or oral), including the making, issuance or release any public announcement, press release, statement or acknowledgment of the existence of, or reveal publicly the terms, conditions and status of, this Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein, whether to the public, the press, the trade, Manufacturer’s or Distributor’s customers or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the other Party as to the content and time of release of and the media in which such statement or announcement is to be made; provided, that (a) Manufacturer is permitted to issue Seller Notices and Third Party Consents (as each term is defined in the Asset Sale and Purchase Agreement) in accordance with the terms of the Asset Sale and Purchase Agreement, provided that Manufacturer is permitted to disclose only (i) the co-exclusive nature of this Agreement and (ii) the existence of the Asset Sale and Purchase Agreement (including the identity of Buyer (as such term is defined therein)) to the counterparties of the Distributor Contracts (as defined in the Asset Sale and Purchase Agreement) therein without Distributor’s prior written consent, and (b) in the case of announcements, releases, statements, acknowledgments or revelations which either Party is required by Law to make, issue or release, the making, issuing or releasing of any such announcement, release, statement, acknowledgment or revelation by the Party so required to do so by Law shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement if such Party shall have given, to the extent reasonably possible, not less than two (2) days’ prior notice to the other Party, and shall have attempted, to the extent reasonably possible, to clear such announcement, release, statement, acknowledgment or revelation with the other Party.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Manufacturer shall not use the name of Distributor or any of its Affiliates for advertising or promotional purposes without the prior written consent of Distributor.

Section 13.6           Headings.  The headings contained in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not be considered in interpreting or construing any of the provisions contained in this Agreement.

Section 13.7           Notices.  All notices, requests, demands and other communications given or made under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given or made (a) as of the date delivered, when delivered personally; (b) on the date the

Section 13.8           Assignment.  This Agreement, or any of the rights, interests or obligations created herein, shall not be assigned or transferred, in whole or in part, by either

57

Party without the prior written consent of the other Party; provided, however, that subject to Section 12.5, any Party shall have the right to assign any or all of its rights or obligations under this Agreement to any Affiliate, or a successor to that part of its business to which this Agreement relates (whether by means of a stock acquisition, acquisition of assets, license, merger or any other form of transaction), without such prior written consent.  Any attempted assignment or transfer of such rights or obligations without such consent, except as provided herein, shall be null and void.  Subject to the foregoing sentence, this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 13.9           Severability.  If any provision of this Agreement or the application of any such provision is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.  To the extent permitted under applicable Law, the Parties waive any provision under applicable Law that renders any provision of this Agreement invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect.  The Parties shall, to the extent lawful and practicable, use their reasonable best efforts to enter into arrangements to reinstate the intended benefits, net of the intended burdens, of any such provision held invalid, illegal or unenforceable.

Section 13.10         Relationship of the Parties.  The relationship of Distributor and Manufacturer established by this Agreement is that of independent contractors, and nothing contained herein shall be construed to (a) give any of the Parties any right or authority to create or assume any obligation of any kind on behalf of the other or (b) constitute the Parties as partners, joint venturers, co-owners or otherwise as participants in a joint or common undertaking.

Section 13.11         Entire Agreement.  It is the desire and intent of the Parties to provide certainty as to their future rights and remedies against each other by defining the extent of their undertakings herein.  This Agreement, together with the Ancillary Agreements and the Confidentiality Agreement (and all schedules, annexes and exhibits hereto and thereto), embody the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements with respect thereto.  The Parties intend that this Agreement shall constitute the complete and exclusive statement of its terms and that no extrinsic evidence whatsoever may be introduced in any judicial proceeding involving this Agreement.

Section 13.12         Counterparts; Facsimile Signatures.  This Agreement may be executed or delivered (including by facsimile transmission) in any number of counterparts, each of which when executed, shall be deemed to be an original and all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same instrument binding upon all of the Parties notwithstanding the fact that all Parties are not signatory to the original or the same counterpart.

Section 13.13         Expenses.  Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each Party shall pay all of its own fees and expenses (including all legal, accounting and other advisory fees) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, whether or not such transactions are consummated.

58

Section 13.14         Amendment; Waiver.  No amendment to this Agreement shall be effective unless it shall be in writing and signed by each Party.  Any failure of a Party to comply with any obligation, covenant, agreement or condition contained in this Agreement may be waived by the Party entitled to the benefits thereof only by a written instrument duly executed and delivered by the Party granting such waiver, but such waiver or failure to insist upon strict compliance with such obligation, covenant, agreement or condition shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure of compliance.

Section 13.15         Interpretation.  When a reference is made in this Agreement to the Preamble or to the Recitals, Article, Section, Exhibit or Schedule such reference shall be to the Preamble or a Recital, Article or Section of, or an Exhibit or Schedule to, this Agreement, unless otherwise indicated.  Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.”  The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement.  All terms defined in this Agreement shall have the defined meanings when used in any certificate or other document made or delivered pursuant hereto unless otherwise defined therein.  The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms and to the masculine as well as to the feminine and neuter genders of such term.  Any statute defined or referred to herein or in any agreement or instrument that is referred to herein means such statute, agreement or instrument as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including (in the case of statutes) by succession of comparable successor statutes, and any rules, regulations or guidelines issued or promulgated thereunder.  Other than in Section 13.8, references to a Person are also to its permitted successors and assigns.  References to Manufacturer are also to the Company, Manufacturing Subsidiary 1 and Manufacturing Subsidiary 2.  In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 13.16         Incorporation of Exhibits and Schedules.  The Exhibits and Schedules identified in this Agreement are incorporated herein and made a part hereof.

Section 13.17         WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EACH OF THE MANUFACTURER PARTIES, DISTRIBUTOR AND ANY THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS, ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY OR THE ACTIONS OF THE EACH OF THE MANUFACTURER PARTIES OR DISTRIBUTOR IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE AND ENFORCEMENT HEREOF OR THEREOF.  ANY OF THE PARTIES OR THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY MAY FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE KNOWING, VOLUNTARY AND BARGAINED-FOR AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY TO WAIVE ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION.

59

Section 13.18         Specific Performance.  The Parties hereby expressly acknowledge and agree that immediate, extensive and irreparable damage would result, no adequate remedy at law would exist and damages would be difficult to determine in the event that any provision of this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its specific terms or otherwise breached.  Therefore, in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other remedy available to any Party, an aggrieved Party under this Agreement would be entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof and immediate injunctive relief, without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy or posting security for costs and damages.  Such remedies, and any and all other remedies provided for in this Agreement, shall, however, be cumulative in nature and not exclusive and shall be in addition to any other remedies whatsoever which any Party may otherwise have.

Section 13.19         Further Assurance.  If at any time after the execution of this Agreement any further action is required to fully effect the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other of the Ancillary Documents, each of the Parties shall take such required further action (including the execution and delivery of required instruments and documents).
