For such purposes, “control,” “controlled by” and “under common control with” shall mean the possession of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of an entity, whether through the ownership of voting stock or partnership interest, by contract or otherwise. In the case of a corporation, the direct or indirect ownership of more than fifty percent (50%) of its outstanding voting shares or the ability otherwise to elect a majority of the board of directors or other managing authority of the entity shall in any event be deemed to confer control, it being understood that the direct or indirect ownership of a lesser percentage of such shares shall not necessarily preclude the existence of control.

ARTICLE 5
PRODUCT QUALITY AND MANUFACTURING PRACTICES

5.1 Quality of Licensed Products. Rohto acknowledges that, if the Licensed Products fail to conform to the Specifications, or otherwise are not consistent with OMP’s image and reputation for overall high quality products, then the substantial goodwill which OMP has built up and now possesses in connection with the Know-How and OMP Trademarks and Joint Trademarks will be impaired. Accordingly, Rohto hereby agrees that:

(a) The Licensed Products (including all packaging, labeling and advertising) shall conform to the Specifications therefor, and be of high standards and of such quality, style and appearance as shall (in the judgment of OMP) be reasonably adequate and suited to their exploitation to the best advantage and to the protection of the Know-How, OMP Trademarks, Joint Trademarks and goodwill pertaining thereto;

(b) The Licensed Products shall be manufactured, processed, labeled, marketed, sold and distributed in accordance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations, and shall not be adulterated, contaminated or misbranded within the meanings of any applicable law or regulation; and

(c) The policies for the marketing, distribution and sale of the Licensed Products by Rohto shall be of high standards and to the best advantage of the Know-How and Trademarks and that the same shall in no manner reflect adversely upon the good name of OMP, or upon any of its products, the Know-How or the Trademarks.

Confidential Treatment Requested

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event may OMP require Rohto to manufacture any Licensed Product to Specifications that do not comply with applicable laws.

5.2 Manufacturing Practices. Without limiting the generality of any obligations of Rohto hereunder, Rohto agrees to meet or exceed all its manufacturing practices and standards (as of the Effective Date) with respect to all manufacturing activities for the Product. Rohto shall provide OMP with written notice of any material changes in such manufacturing practices. During the term of this Agreement, Rohto agrees that OMP or its agent (reasonably acceptable to Rohto) will be permitted to inspect the Facility annually to assure compliance with such manufacturing practices; and, OMP shall provide Rohto with a copy of the results of such inspection. If such inspection discloses deficiencies in the Facility, OMP may request, and Rohto shall implement, corrective actions, at Rohto’s expense and on a timetable mutually acceptable to the parties. In addition, in such event, OMP shall have the right to conduct reasonably frequent inspections of the Facility. OMP shall have the right to terminate this Agreement if Rohto fails to implement commercially reasonable corrective actions. OMP shall also be permitted, at its own expense, to place a representative at the Facility to monitor Rohto’s performance hereunder for the initial production of each new Licensed Product.

MARKETING AND SALES

6.1 Submission for Approval. Rohto shall submit a representative sample of its proposed advertising and promotional materials (including, without limitation, packaging, package inserts, labels, tags, advertising copy, advertising layouts, radio and television presentations, publicity and promotional materials, catalogues and other sales or trade literature, all of which shall hereinafter be collectively referred to as the “Materials”) pertaining to the Licensed Products to OMP for written approval before prior to the launch of each new Licensed Product. OMP reserves the right to disapprove of any proposed copy and in such case, shall provide appropriate changes or comments to Rohto. OMP will notify Rohto of the approval status within ten (10) business days after receipt of such materials. Failure to notify Rohto of such status within ten (10) business days following the request for approval shall constitute approval. Thereafter, Rohto will have no obligation to seek approval for minor changes including but not limited to introducing a new size/SKU of an existing product or formula, and adding or deleting a non-active ingredient by 2% or less or changing a non-active ingredient by 2% or less.

Examples of significant changes include a new product launch, a line extension (introducing a unique new product not a new size/SKU of an existing product or formula), a change in logo dimensions/proportions, a significant change in formulations (adding/deleting an active ingredient), or a change in product name, or trademark. All Materials produced by or for Rohto shall comply with mutually-agreed guidelines for product marketing and positioning, and with the Trademark Usage Guidelines set forth in Exhibit B.

6.2 Export of Licensed Products. In view of the variance of Specifications from those specifications used in the United States, or which may be used by OMP in other countries, Rohto covenants that Rohto will not (1) actively solicit orders for Licensed Products from any third party in any country where OMP has granted a third party a license with respect to the Trademarks or the Know-How; (2) engage in advertising specifically aimed at any such countries or establish any branch or maintain any distribution depot with respect to the Licensed Products in any such countries, or (3) put the Licensed Products on the market in any such countries in response to unsolicited orders. As provided in Section 2.2, OMP assumes no responsibility and shall have no liability regarding exports by third parties into the Territory of products, including Licensed Products, bearing the Trademarks. OMP may from time to time, and on an individual basis, permit Rohto to export to locations outside the Territory on such conditions as OMP shall establish in such written permission, which OMP shall have the right to revoke at any time.

6.3 Marketing Report. Rohto agrees to share with OMP, to the extent available, and at least once a year, pertinent written information regarding the market for Licensed Products in the Territory. This shall include written information regarding consumer research, technical research and clinical results, pricing, share of market, out-of-stock, volume, and distribution excluding any trade secrets of Rohto. Rohto shall act in good faith to keep OMP informed regarding Rohto’s activities in the market, including without limitation price changes, demographic target segments, geographic target segments, and distribution channels.

6.4 Use of Rohto’s Name. OMP Shall have the right, but not the obligation, to use the name of Rohto in OMP’s programs, advertising and promotions, without any payment to Rohto. Any and each use of any trademark or trade name of Rohto must have the prior written approval of Rohto.

ARTICLE 7
TRADEMARKS

7.1 Use of Trademarks. Rohto shall use OMP Trademarks only in connection with Licensed Products which are designated in writing by OMP to bear the particular Trademark, and which are manufactured in accordance with the Specifications. The Licensed Products shall be manufactured solely for sale under the Trademarks. The Licensed Products may not be sold without bearing the appropriate Trademark, unless OMP gives its prior written consent.

In order to maintain goodwill of the Trademarks, Rohto shall (i) manufacture the Product in accordance with the product concept worked together with OMP, (ii) maintain adequate quality control procedures regarding manufacture of the Product, and (iii) submit to Licensor upon request for its inspection samples

Confidential Treatment Requested

of the Product in sufficient quantity. If OMP considers that Rohto’s quality control is not sufficient to maintain its goodwill of the OMP Trademarks or Joint Trademarks, OMP will notify Rohto in writing and Rohto will make a commercially reasonable effort to improve its quality control procedure. If such Licensed Products have been sold containing defects that may pose a threat to health or safety or bring any OMP Trademark or Joint Trademark into disrepute with the public nonconforming, they shall be recalled by Rohto in accordance with OMP’s usual policy. If agreement is not reached regarding disposition of such Licensed Products, they shall be destroyed; provided that, before such Licensed Products are destroyed, OMP shall examine as many additional samples of Licensed Products as Rohto may reasonably request to confirm the existence of the deficiency.

7.3 Trademark Notices. Whenever an OMP Trademark or Joint Trademark appears in writing or on any media Rohto shall provide a notice, in form acceptable to OMP, that such Trademark is registered or pending registration and that such Trademark is used under license from OMP.

7.4 Prohibitions. For the term of this Agreement, and thereafter, unless OMP agrees in writing, Rohto agrees not to use any xxxx, name or other identifying means:

(a) identical with or confusingly similar to any Trademark except as permitted by this Agreement;

(b) in combination or association with any Trademark; or

7.5 Acknowledgment of Value. Rohto recognizes the great value of the goodwill associated with the OMP Trademarks and Joint Trademarks and acknowledges that such Trademarks and all rights therein and goodwill pertaining thereto belong exclusively to OMP, and that such Trademarks have a secondary meaning in the minds of the public. Rohto acknowledges that all use of the OMP Trademarks and Joint Trademarks shall inure to the benefit of OMP. Upon expiration or termination of the right to use such Trademarks pursuant to this Agreement, except for Rohto’s rights to sell out its inventory pursuant to Section 11.4 below, Rohto shall cease all use of the OMP Trademarks promptly and will not use any of such Trademarks thereafter. In case that Rohto is not granted a royalty-free, exclusive, and perpetual license to use the Joint Trademark in the Channel pursuant to Section 11.5 below, Rohto shall cease use of Joint Trademarks as well as OMP Trademarks as provided in this Section.
