basis the inventory of Bulk API held by Patheon and Patheon shall provide Santarus with a monthly
inventory report (within [***] Business Days following the last day of the applicable month) of the
Bulk API held by Patheon, which shall contain the following information for such month:
Quantity Received: The total quantity of Bulk API that complies with the Specifications and
is received at the Facility during the applicable period.
Quantity Dispensed: The total quantity of Bulk API dispensed is calculated by adding the
Quantity Received to the inventory of Bulk API that complies with the Specifications and is
held at the beginning of the applicable period, less the inventory of Bulk API that complies
with the Specifications at the end of the applicable period.
Quantity Converted: The total quantity of Bulk API contained within Finished Product
batches released and shipped during the applicable period.

Exhibit D for each of the following Finished Product sku’s, 20 mg 30’s, 40 mg 3’s, 40mg 5’s
and 40mg 30’s (the “Target Yield”). The AAY shall be calculated by dividing the Quantity Converted
by the Quantity Dispensed during the calendar year. Patheon shall strive to maintain AAY levels
for each Finished Product above the applicable Target Yield. If the AAY falls more than [***]
percentage points ([***]%) below the respective Target Yield in any calendar year, then Patheon
shall reimburse Santarus for the cost of the shortfall within [***] days of the end of each
calendar year. The following calculation shall be used to determine reimbursement value, provided
that Patheon’s liability for Bulk API calculated in accordance with this Section 2.11.3 in a year
shall not exceed, in the aggregate, the Annual API Cap:
[***]
It shall not constitute a material breach of this Agreement by Patheon if the AAY is less than the
Target Yield.
2.11.4 Other API Losses.
(i) Patheon shall notify Santarus in writing in the event that an amount of [***]
kilograms or more of Bulk API is damaged, lost or otherwise rendered unusable at any

*** | Certain information on this page has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions. |
10
the contrary, Patheon shall reimburse Santarus for such Bulk API at the API
Reimbursement Value within [***] days after discovery of the Significant API Loss.
For clarity, amounts paid for Significant API Loss must be counted towards Annual
API Cap, however for the purposes of calculating the Annual Average Yield under
Section 2.11.3, all API reimbursed to Santarus pursuant to this Section shall be
removed from the Quantity Received and Quantity Dispensed totals.
(ii) Patheon shall notify Santarus in writing in the event that a batch of
intermediate or Finished Product is potentially nonconforming as soon as practical,
and in any event, within [***] days following discovery thereof. Upon discovery of
such potentially nonconforming product, Patheon shall initiate an investigation to
reach a final determination. If the investigation results in a determination that
such product is nonconforming, Patheon shall reimburse Santarus for the Bulk API in
such product at the API Reimbursement Value within [***] days of the determination.
If there is a disagreement between the Parties as to whether product is
nonconforming, the Parties shall follow the procedures outlined in Section 3.5.2 for
submitting the product to an independent laboratory for final determination.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a final determination of whether product is
nonconforming shall be made within [***] days of discovering potentially
nonconforming product and if a final determination is not made within such time
period for reasons within Patheon’s control, Patheon shall immediately reimburse
Santarus for any Bulk API in such potentially nonconforming product at the API
Reimbursement Value.

Responsibilities, without invalidating any remainder of such shipment. Santarus or its agent
shall visually inspect the Finished Products manufactured by Patheon upon receipt thereof and shall
give Patheon written notice (a “Deficiency Notice”) of all claims for Finished Products that
deviate from the Patheon Manufacturing Responsibilities within [***] days after Santarus’ receipt
thereof (or, in the case of any defects not reasonably susceptible to discovery upon receipt by
visual inspection of the Finished Product, including those requiring laboratory analysis, within
[***] days after discovery thereof by Santarus, but in no event after the expiration date of the
Finished Product). Should Santarus fail to provide Patheon with the Deficiency Notice within the
applicable [***]—day period, then the delivery shall be deemed to have been accepted by Santarus
on the [***] day after delivery or discovery, as applicable. Patheon shall have no liability under
Section 3.5.3 for any deviations for which it has not received notice within the applicable
[***]-day period.
3.5.2 Determination of Deficiency. Upon receipt of a Deficiency Notice, Patheon shall
have [***] days to advise Santarus by notice in writing that it disagrees with the contents of such
Deficiency Notice. If Santarus and Patheon fail to agree within [***] days after the Santarus’
receipt of Patheon’s notice as to whether any Finished Products identified in the Deficiency Notice
deviate from the Patheon Manufacturing Responsibilities, then the Parties shall mutually select an
independent laboratory to evaluate if the Finished Products deviate from the Patheon Manufacturing
Responsibilities. Such evaluation shall be binding on the Parties, and if such evaluation
certifies that any Finished Products deviate from the Patheon Manufacturing Responsibilities,
Santarus may reject those Finished Products in the manner contemplated in this Section 3.5. If
such evaluation does not so certify in respect of any such Finished Products, then Santarus shall
be deemed to have accepted delivery of such Finished Products on the [***] day after delivery (or,
in the case of any defects not reasonably susceptible to discovery upon receipt by visual
inspection of the Finished Product, including those requiring laboratory analysis, on the [***] day
after discovery thereof by Santarus, but in no event after the expiration date of the Finished
Product). The expenses of such testing shall be borne by Patheon if the non-conformity with the
Patheon Manufacturing Responsibilities is confirmed, and otherwise by Santarus. The Parties
mutually agree that they shall resolve all determinations of deficiencies as quickly as possible,
and in any event, within [***] days of a Deficiency Notice.
3.5.3 Patheon Responsibility. In the event Santarus rejects Finished Products in
accordance with this Section 3.5 and the rejected Finished Product is determined not to conform to
the Patheon Manufacturing Responsibilities, Patheon will credit Santarus’ account for Patheon’s
invoice price to Santarus for such non-conforming Finished Products. If Santarus shall have
previously paid for such defective Finished Products, Patheon shall promptly, at Santarus’
election, either: (i) refund the invoice price for such defective Finished Products; (ii) offset
such amount against other amounts due to Patheon hereunder; or (iii) replace such Finished Products
with conforming Finished Products as soon as reasonably possible without Santarus being liable for
payment therefor under Section 6.3, contingent upon the receipt from Santarus of all API required
for the manufacture of such replacement Finished Products. Further, Patheon shall reimburse
Santarus for all reasonable shipping, handling and storage charges incurred in association with
such non-conforming Finished Product and for the Bulk API utilized in such non-conforming Finished
Product in accordance with Section 2.11.4. Nothing in this Section 3.5.3 shall be construed to
limit the rights and remedies available to Santarus at law or in equity.

COMPENSATION; PAYMENT
COMPENSATION; PAYMENT
6.1 Price of Finished Product. The Price includes all Raw Materials, manufacturing,
packaging, testing and temporary storing costs associated with manufacturing and supplying the
Finished Product, and includes the costs of such quality control measures as required by the
Specifications and the Quality Agreement. The cost of the Bulk API shall form no part of the
Price. The costs of shipping, handling, insurance and freight will be borne by Santarus and form
no part of the Price.
6.2 Changes in Price of Finished Product. The Price during any period after the first
anniversary of the Commencement of Commercial Manufacturing shall be determined in accordance with
the following:
(a) | Annual Review. On or about December 1st of each year Patheon and Santarus will meet (in person or by telephone or video conference) to consider whether any adjustment to the Price in respect of the Finished Products upward or downward is appropriate to account for increases or decreases in the cost of manufacture and/or the cost of Raw Materials. In considering whether a change in the Price is justified, the Parties may consider all published economic data, including without limitation, price indices that are demonstrated to have a rational connection to the cost of Raw Materials or Patheon’s cost of manufacturing the Finished Product. | ||
(b) | Extraordinary Changes in Raw Material Costs. If at any time market conditions result in Patheon’s cost of Raw Materials being materially greater than normal forecasted increases, then Patheon shall be entitled to request an adjustment to the Price to compensate it for such increased Raw Material costs. If at any time market conditions result in Patheon’s cost of Raw Materials being materially |
*** | Certain information on this page has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions. |
18
lesser than anticipated, then Santarus shall be entitled to request an adjustment to the Price to compensate it for such reduced Raw Material costs. For the purposes of this Section 6.2(b), changes materially greater than normal forecasted increases or materially lesser than anticipated shall be considered to have occurred if: (i) the cost of a Raw Material increases or decreases, as applicable, by [***] or more of the cost for that Raw Material upon which the Price then in effect was based; or (ii) the aggregate cost for all Raw Materials required to manufacture the Finished Product increases or decreases, as applicable, by [***] or more of the total Raw Material costs for the Finished Product upon which the Price then in effect was based. To the extent that the Price has been previously adjusted pursuant to this Section 6.2(b) to reflect an increase or decrease in the cost of one or more Raw Materials, the adjustments provided for in (i) and (ii) above shall operate based on the costs attributed to such Raw Material (or Raw Materials) at the time the last such adjustments were made. |
In connection with a Price review pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 6.2, Patheon shall
deliver to Santarus reasonably detailed documentation concerning increases or decreases in the cost
of Raw Materials or Patheon’s cost of manufacturing to facilitate the discussion. In connection
with all fee adjustment requests pursuant to clause (b) of this Section 6.2, Patheon shall deliver
to Santarus a revised Exhibit B and such budgetary pricing information or other documentation
reasonably sufficient to demonstrate that a Price adjustment is justified, provided that Patheon
shall have no obligation to provide any supporting documents to the extent such documents are
subject to obligations of confidentiality between Patheon and its suppliers. Each of Santarus and
Patheon shall forthwith use all reasonable efforts to agree on a revised Price in respect of each
affected Finished Product. In the event the Parties are unable to reach agreement concerning
adjustments to the Price, such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with Article 13. Until such
time as dispute is resolved the price per Finished Product shall be the most current mutually
agreed upon Price adjusted by an amount equal to the actual increase in that portion of the Price
that relates to Patheon’s labour costs as reasonably demonstrated by Patheon; provided, however,
that following resolution of any dispute regarding Price, the Price agreed upon as part of the
dispute resolution shall be applied retroactively for any applicable periods.
6.3 Payment Terms. Santarus shall pay Patheon for the Finished Product shipped to Santarus
within [***] days of the date of the invoices issued pursuant to Section 2.6. Patheon shall send
all invoices by email or facsimile to the email address or facsimile number of the accounts payable

20
existing inventories of Raw Materials. Santarus’ liability for the costs of Raw Materials
ordered pursuant to the terms of this Section shall [***]. For clarity, while Patheon shall
purchase Raw Materials in quantities only to satisfy the requirements of a Firm Purchase Order,
there will be, in some cases, minimum order quantities stipulated by a vendor that will result in
an excess quantity of certain Raw Materials after the completion of a manufacturing campaign. In
such cases, Patheon shall attempt to utilize such excess quantities, subject to the provisions of
Section 7.3.2 below, for subsequent Firm Purchase Orders. However, if the excess materials are not
consumed within [***] months of the date of purchase, Santarus shall reimburse Patheon for it’s
cost of such excess materials within [***] days of the date of an invoice for said quantity, in
accordance with the provisions of Section 7.3.6 and Exhibit E.
7.3.2 Subject to Patheon’s obligations set forth in Section 7.3.3, Santarus shall reimburse
Patheon for Raw Materials, including Patheon’s out of pocket expenses actually incurred in
connection therewith, to the extent that: (a) the Raw Materials are no longer usuable in the
manufacturing process due to (i) a change in the Specifications pursuant to Section 3.6, or (ii) a
change in label copy or artwork; (b) the Raw Materials have not been utilized to fulfill Firm
Purchase Orders issued by Santarus within [***] months following the date of purchase of the Raw
Materials (collectively, the “Obsolete/Excess Raw Materials”). Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Obsolete/Excess Raw Materials shall not include any Raw Materials purchased by Patheon in excess of
the Firm Purchase Order to which they relate, unless otherwise mutually agreed by the parties in a
signed writing. In no event shall Santarus be liable (y) for Raw Materials purchased prior to
January 1, 2006, or (z) to third-party suppliers of Raw Materials purchased by Patheon hereunder.
7.3.3 Before requesting reimbursement from Santarus pursuant to Section 7.3.2, Patheon shall
first use its commercially reasonable efforts to cover the cost of Obsolete/Excess Raw Materials
by: (a) returning such Raw Materials to the vendor, (b) utilizing such Raw Materials in
manufacturing products for its other customers to the extent possible, and (c) implementing other
reasonable measures to mitigate the loss due to such excess Raw Materials. To the extent that
Patheon is unable to off-set such loss fully, Santarus shall reimburse Patheon in accordance with
Section 7.3.1 and 7.3.2.
7.3.4 In the event such Raw Materials are incorporated into Finished Products subsequently
purchased by Santarus or into third party products manufactured by Patheon and subsequently
purchased by a third party, Santarus will receive credit for any costs of such Raw Materials
previously paid to Patheon by Santarus pursuant to Section 7.3.2 as follows: (a) at the time of
invoice if Raw Materials are incorporated into Finished Product or (b) within thirty (30) days if
Raw Materials are incorporated into third party products.
7.3.5 In the event Raw Materials expire or become obsolete or are otherwise no longer useable
in the manufacturing process for the Finished Product because (a) Patheon failed to manufacture and
supply the quantities ordered by Santarus pursuant to a Firm Purchase Order, (b) quantities of such
Raw Materials are in excess of the limits of Santarus’ liability set forth in Section 7.3.2, or (c)
Patheon failed to store Raw Materials as required by the applicable Specifications or under Section
7.2, then Patheon shall bear all responsibility for the cost of such Raw Materials.

herein shall last as long as trade secret law shall allow), all non-public, proprietary or
“confidential” disclosures, know-how, data, and technical, financial and other information of any
nature whatsoever (collectively, “Confidential Information”), disclosed or submitted, either orally
or in writing (including, without limitation, by electronic means) or through observation, by one
Party (the “Disclosing Party”) to the other Party (the “Receiving Party”) hereunder, including,
without limitation, the terms of this Agreement, shall be received and maintained by the Receiving
Party in strict confidence, shall not be used for any purpose other than the purposes expressly
contemplated by this Agreement, and shall not be disclosed to any Third Party (including, without
limitation, in connection with any publications, presentations or other disclosures).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) Santarus may disclose on a need-to-know basis the existence of
this Agreement and the terms hereof to any bona fide potential acquirers, corporate partners,
investors or financial advisors; (b) Patheon may disclose on a need-to-know basis the existence of
this Agreement and the terms hereof to its financial advisors; and (c) Patheon may disclose the
fact that Santarus is a client of Patheon but shall not disclose any other information relating to
any product for which Patheon provides services to Santarus. The Receiving Party will promptly
notify the Disclosing Party upon discovery of any unauthorized use or disclosure of the Disclosing
Party’s Confidential Information. Confidential Information belongs to and shall remain the
property of the Disclosing Party.
8.2 Exceptions. The provisions of this Article 8 shall not apply to any information of the
Disclosing Party which can be shown by competent evidence by the Receiving Party:
8.2.1 To have been known to or in the possession of the Receiving Party prior to the date of
its actual receipt from the Disclosing Party;
8.2.2 To be or to have become readily available to the public other than through any act or
omission of any Party in breach of any confidentiality obligations owed to the Disclosing Party;
22
8.2.3 To have been disclosed to the Receiving Party, other than under an obligation of
confidentiality, by a Third Party which had no obligation to the Disclosing Party not to disclose
such information to others; or
8.2.4 To have been subsequently independently developed by the Receiving Party without use of
or reference or access to the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information.
8.3 Authorized Disclosure. The Receiving Party may disclose the Disclosing Party’s
Confidential Information hereunder solely to the extent (a) approved by the Disclosing Party; or
(b) the Receiving Party is legally required to disclose such Confidential Information, provided,
however, that prior to any such required disclosure, the Receiving Party will, except where
impracticable, give reasonable advance notice to the Disclosing Party of such disclosure (so that
the Disclosing Party may seek a protective order and or other appropriate remedy or waive
compliance with the confidentiality provisions of this Article) and will use its reasonable efforts
to secure confidential treatment of such Confidential Information required to be disclosed.
8.4 Return of Confidential Information. The Receiving Party shall keep the Disclosing Party’s
Confidential Information in appropriately secure locations. Upon the expiration or termination of
this Agreement or at any time upon the Disclosing Party’s request, the Receiving Party shall
destroy or return to the Disclosing Party, at the Disclosing Party’s written request, all
Confidential Information belonging to the Disclosing Party possessed by the Receiving Party, or its
officers, directors, employees, agents and consultants; provided however that a Receiving Party may
retain one (1) copy of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information in an appropriately secure
location, which by Applicable Laws it must retain, for so long as such Applicable Laws require such
retention but thereafter shall dispose of such retained Confidential Information in accordance with
Applicable Laws or this Section 8.4.
8.5 Equitable Relief. The Receiving Party agrees that, due to the unique nature of the
Confidential Information, the unauthorized disclosure or use of the Confidential Information of the
Disclosing Party may cause irreparable harm and significant injury to the Disclosing Party, the
extent of which may be difficult to ascertain and for which there may be no adequate remedy at law.
Accordingly, the Receiving Party agrees that the Disclosing Party, in addition to any other
available remedies, shall have the right to seek an immediate injunction and other equitable relief
enjoining any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement. The Receiving Party shall notify the
Disclosing Party in writing immediately upon the Receiving Party’s becoming aware of any such
breach or threatened breach.

ARTICLE 11
TERM AND TERMINATION
TERM AND TERMINATION
11.1 Term. This Agreement shall commence as of the Effective Date and shall continue in full
force until August 19, 2009, unless earlier terminated in accordance with the terms and conditions
of this Article 11 (the “Initial Term”). After the Initial Term, this Agreement shall continue in
force for an indefinite duration (the “Renewal Term”); provided that either Party may terminate
this Agreement at any time during the Renewal Term beginning on August 19, 2009, by providing the
other Party with eighteen (18) months prior written notice of termination.
11.2 Termination for Cause. In the event that either party has failed to remedy a material
breach of any of its representations, warranties or other obligations under this Agreement within
ninety (90) days (the “Remediation Period”) following receipt of a written notice thereof (the
“Breach Notice”) from the other party that expressly states that it is a notice under this Section
11.2, the non-breaching party may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to the other party
(the “Termination Notice”). The Termination Notice may provide for a termination date that is as
of any date within eighteen (18) months following the date of the Termination Notice. If the
non-breaching party does not provide a Termination Notice within one hundred eighty (180) days
after the receipt of the Breach Notice by the breaching party, then the non-breaching party shall
be deemed to have waived its right to terminate the Agreement for such breach (but shall not have
waived any other rights that may have accrued as a result of such breach). For the avoidance of
doubt, a material breach of the Quality Agreement or the Capital Agreement shall be deemed to be a
breach of this Agreement for the purpose of determining the rights of the Parties to terminate this
Agreement.
11.3 Termination for Bankruptcy. Either Party may terminate this Agreement immediately if the
other Party becomes insolvent, makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, suffers or
permits the appointment of a receiver for its business or assets, avails itself of
27
or becomes subject to any petition or proceeding under any statute of any state or country
relating to insolvency or the protection of the rights of creditors.
11.4 Regulatory Proceedings. Santarus may terminate this Agreement effective immediately upon
written notice to Patheon should the FDA or a Foreign Regulatory Authority having jurisdiction
impose on the Facility an import ban in respect of the Finished Product or withdraw any license
required by Patheon to manufacture the Finished Product at the Facility or take other action that
is reasonably likely to have a material adverse impact on Patheon’s ability to perform hereunder.
11.5 Government Action. Santarus may terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days’ written
notice to Patheon in the event that any governmental agency (including without limitation, the FDA
or a Foreign Regulatory Authority) takes any action, or raises any objection, that prevents
Santarus from importing, exporting, purchasing, or selling the Finished Product or otherwise makes
such activity unlawful.
11.6 Termination for Discontinuation. Santarus may terminate this Agreement if at any time it
decides to no longer market the Finished Product by giving Patheon six (6) months advance written
notice of termination.
11.7 Effect of Termination. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 11.7 or elsewhere in
this Agreement, in the event this Agreement is terminated for any reason, (a) subject to Section
11.8, all rights and obligations of the Parties under this Agreement shall terminate; (b) Santarus
shall surrender to Patheon, or, at Patheon’s sole option and expense, Santarus shall destroy and
provide Patheon with a certificate signed by a Responsible Executive of Santarus attesting to the
destruction of, all copies of any Confidential Information of Patheon in its possession (excluding
all of the foregoing assigned to Santarus under Article 9 above); (c) Patheon shall surrender to
Santarus, or, at Santarus’ sole option and expense, Patheon shall destroy and provide Santarus with
a certificate signed by a Responsible Executive of Patheon attesting to the destruction of, all
copies of any Confidential Information provided by Santarus hereunder (except to the extent
required to be maintained by Patheon pursuant to Applicable Laws or this Agreement); (d) Santarus
shall pay for any Finished Product manufactured at any time before the date of termination pursuant
to any Firm Purchase Order delivered to Patheon prior to such termination, and (e) Patheon shall
return to Santarus all unused API (with shipping and related expenses, if any, to be borne by
Santarus). Further, in the event of termination by Patheon pursuant to Section 11.2 or pursuant to
Section 11.3, or in the event of termination by Santarus pursuant to Sections 11.4, 11.5 or 11.6,
Santarus shall reimburse Patheon for: (x) Raw Materials applicable to the Finished Product, at
Patheon’s cost (including all costs incurred by Patheon in connection with the purchase and
handling of such Raw Materials), which were ordered, purchased, produced or maintained by Patheon
in contemplation of filling Firm Purchase Orders prior to notice of termination being given in
accordance with the provisions of Article 7, in particular Section 7.3.1.; and (y) satisfaction of
the purchase price payable pursuant to Patheon’s orders with suppliers of Raw Materials, provided
such orders were made by Patheon in reliance on Firm Purchase Orders; but in each case subject to
Patheon’s obligation to cover as set forth in Section 7.3.3 and subject to the limitations on
Santarus’ liability set forth in Section 7.3.2. Patheon shall cooperate with Santarus and assist in
the transfer to Santarus of all legal and technical documents concerning API and Finished Products,
including master batch records,
28
validation reports, stability reports and relevant manufacturer authorizations, existing
retention samples and all such other documents and materials as may be reasonably necessary or
useful for Santarus to source Finished Products from other qualified Third Parties.
11.8 Accrued Rights. Termination, relinquishment, or expiration of this Agreement for any
reason shall be without prejudice to any right which shall have accrued to the benefit of either
Party prior to such termination, relinquishment, or expiration. Such termination, relinquishment
or expiration shall not relieve either Party from obligations which are expressly indicated to
survive termination or expiration of this Agreement. The provisions of this Article shall not
limit or restrict the rights of any Party to seek remedies or take measures that may be otherwise
available to it at law or equity in connection with the enforcement and performance of obligations
under this Agreement. Any provision of this Agreement intended by their specific terms or by
necessary implication to survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement, including without
limitation, Articles, 8, 9, 12 and 13, shall so survive.
ARTICLE 12

indemnify, and hold harmless Patheon, its directors, officers, employees, agents, and Affiliates,
against all Third Party claims, demands, damages, liabilities, losses, costs and expenses,

29
(d) the Finished Product marketed in any given country by Santarus is not suitable for the

(e) the Finished Product contains a defect in the API that was not reasonably discoverable by
Patheon utilizing the test methods set forth in the Specifications,
provided, however, that Santarus shall not be obligated to indemnify Patheon under this Section
12.2 to the extent such claim resulted from or arose out of any act or omission for which Patheon
is obligated to indemnify Santarus pursuant to Section 12.3 below.
12.3 Indemnification by Patheon. Patheon hereby agrees to defend, at its expense, indemnify,
and hold harmless Santarus, its directors, officers, employees, agents, and Affiliates against all
Third Party Claims resulting from or arising out of (a) the failure to manufacture, package and
test the Finished Product in accordance with the Specifications, GMP, Applicable Laws and the
Patheon Manufacturing Responsibilities; (b) the failure to store the Finished Product, Bulk API or

not be obligated to indemnify Santarus under this Section 12.3 to the extent that such Claim
results from or arises out of any act or omission for which Santarus is obligated to indemnify
Patheon pursuant to Sections 12.1or 12.2 above.
12.4 Indemnification Procedure. Each indemnified Party (the “Indemnitee”) agrees to give the
indemnifying Party (the “Indemnitor”) prompt written notice of any Claims or discovery of fact upon
which the Indemnitee intends to base a request for indemnification. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the failure to give timely notice to the Indemnitor shall not release the Indemnitor from any
liability to the Indemnitee to the extent the Indemnitor is not materially prejudiced thereby.
12.4.1 The Indemnitee shall furnish promptly to the Indemnitor copies of all papers and
official documents in the Indemnitee’s possession or control which relate to any Claims; provided,
however, that if the Indemnitee defends or participates in the defense of any Claims, then the
Indemnitor shall also provide such papers and documents to the Indemnitee. The Indemnitee shall
reasonably cooperate with the Indemnitor in defending against any Claims.
12.4.2 The Indemnitor shall have the right, by prompt written notice to the Indemnitee, to
assume direction and control of the defense of any Claim, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to
the Indemnitee and at the sole cost of the Indemnitor, so long as (a) the Indemnitor shall promptly
notify the Indemnitee in writing (but in no event more than thirty (30) days after the Indemnitor’s
receipt of notice of the Claim) that the Indemnitor intends to indemnify the Indemnitee pursuant to
this Article absent the development of facts that give the Indemnitor the right to claim
indemnification from the Indemnitee, and (b) the Indemnitor diligently pursues the defense of the
Claim.
30
12.4.3 If the Indemnitor assumes the defense of the Claim as provided in this Section 12.4,

retained, at the Indemnitee’s sole cost and expense; provided, however, that neither the Indemnitee
nor the Indemnitor shall consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with
respect to the Claim without the prior written consent of the other Party, which consent shall not
be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If the Indemnitee withholds consent in respect of a judgment
or settlement involving only the payment of money by the Indemnitor and which would not involve any
stipulation or admission of liability or result in the Indemnitee becoming subject to injunctive
relief or other relief, the Indemnitor shall have the right, upon written notice to the Indemnitee
within five (5) days after receipt of the Indemnitee’s written denial of consent, to pay to the
Indemnitee, or to a trust for its or the applicable Third Party’s benefit, such amount established
by such judgment or settlement in addition to all interest, costs or other charges relating
thereto, together with all attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred to such date for which the
Indemnitor is obligated under this Agreement, if any, at which time the Indemnitor’s rights and
obligations with respect to such Claim shall cease.
12.4.4 The Indemnitor shall not be liable for any settlement or other disposition of a Claim
by the Indemnitee which is reached without the written consent of the Indemnitor.
12.5 No Consequential Damages. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL EITHER PARTY BE RESPONSIBLE OR
LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE
OR OTHER LIKE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF REVENUE, LOSS RESULTING FROM
INTERRUPTION OF BUSINESS OR LOSS OF USE OR DATA , EVEN IF SUCH PARTY, OR ANY OF ITS DIRECTORS,
OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES AND
NOTWITHSTANDING ANY FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY OF ANY KIND, UNDER ANY
CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHER THEORY, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO
THIS AGREEMENT OR ITS IMPLEMENTATION. FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, NOTHING IN THIS SECTION 12.5
SHALL BE INTERPRETED TO LIMIT THE INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATION OF EITHER PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH A
PRODUCT LIABILITY CLAIM WITH RESPECT TO THE CHARACTERIZATION OF DAMAGES OR LOSSES CLAIMED BY A
THIRD PARTY AS BEING INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR OTHER
LIKE DAMAGES OR LOSSES.
12.6 Insurance. Each Party shall maintain commercial general liability and product liability
insurance through the term of this Agreement and for a period of five (5) years thereafter, which
insurance shall afford limits of not less than (i) $5,000,000 for each occurrence, and (ii)
$5,000,000 annual aggregate. In addition, from time to time during the term of this Agreement,
each Party shall increase their levels of insurance coverage if reasonably deemed prudent by such
party in light of the overall activities under this Agreement. If requested each Party will
provide the other with a certificate of insurance evidencing the above and showing the name of the
issuing company, the policy number, the effective date, the expiration date and the limits of
liability. The insurance certificate shall further provide for a minimum of 30 days’ written
notice to the insured of a cancellation of, or material change in, the insurance. If a Party is
unable to maintain the
31
insurance policies required under this Agreement through no fault on the part of such Party,
then such Party shall forthwith notify the other Party in writing and the parties shall in good
faith negotiate appropriate amendments to the insurance provision of this Agreement in order to
provide adequate assurances.

quantity of Bulk API for any reason whatsoever shall be determined in accordance with Section 2.11.
