WHEREAS, XXXXXX and HMRI are parties to that certain Micronized
Glyburide Agreement dated as of December 21, 1994 (the "Micronized Glyburide
Agreement") and the parties wish to amend and restate the Micronized Glyburide
Agreement to include certain new agreements between HMRI and XXXXXX.
NOW THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. MANUFACTURE, PURCHASE AND SALE OF PRODUCT, AND HMRI REVENUE SHARE
1.1 Purchase and Sale. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement consistent with 21 CFR 314.70(d)(4), HMRI agrees to manufacture
exclusively for XXXXXX, during the Term (as defined in Section 11.1 hereof) of
this Agreement, the 1.50 mg and 3.00 mg strengths of HMRI's micronized
glyburide formulation, for sale by XXXXXX to the trade in the Territory under
the XXXXXX label and the private label of certain of XXXXXX'x customers. For
the Term, and thereafter in the event of renewal or extension (as set forth in
Section 11 hereof), XXXXXX agrees to purchase all of its requirements for the
Product for sale in the Territory from HMRI and HMRI agrees to supply all of
XXXXXX'x requirements for the Product. It is understood by the parties that
the Product is produced in campaigns of a minimum quantity set forth in
Schedule 1.1 of this Agreement (the "Minimum Quantity"). Regardless of
XXXXXX'x requirements under this Section 1.1, XXXXXX hereby agrees to place
firm and binding orders for, and to purchase and take delivery from HMRI of,
>
quantities of the Product and any multiples thereof to be delivered to XXXXXX
in each calender month during the Term of this Agreement that are not less
than the Minimum Quantity. The parties acknowledge that shipments of the
Product by HMRI may vary from the Minimum Quantity by up to ten percent more
or less than the Minimum Quantity.
1.2 Product Specifications and Manufacturing Technology Transfer Option.
HMRI will manufacture the Product for XXXXXX in oblong, scored tablets in
strengths and colors as follows:
STRENGTH: XXXXXX GENERIC:
3.00 mg green
1.50 mg pink
The Product shall meet the specifications set forth in the NDA, as such
specifications may be changed from time to time. HMRI shall on a timely basis
advise XXXXXX of any changes made with respect to the NDA.
1.3 Labeling and Packaging. Packaging and labeling for the Product shall
be consistent with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") approved
labeling for the Products, and shall be in dosage strengths and colors as set
forth in Section 1.2 herein and in packaging configurations as subsequently
mutually agreed upon by the parties.
1.4 Rolling Forecasts and Orders. On a monthly basis XXXXXX will provide
HMRI with 12-month rolling forecasts by package size (SKU) and by distributor.
The first rolling forecast will be due upon execution of this Agreement.
XXXXXX will be obligated to place orders and purchase from HMRI the
following:
a. 100% of the amounts forecast for the first three months of each
rolling forecast; and
b. 50% of the amounts forecast for months four, five and six of each
rolling forecast.
Each purchase order shall contain a shipment date in accordance with
HMRI's manufacturing lead time of twelve (12) weeks, and be subject to the
provisions of Section 9 hereof. XXXXXX will supply HMRI with monthly sales
summaries by class of trade at HMRI's request.
1.5 Cost of Goods and Payment. Annually in January of each calendar year
during the Term of this Agreement, HMRI shall provide to XXXXXX cost of goods
pricing for the Products during that calender year. HMRI cost of goods
pricing provided to XXXXXX for each calendar year subsequent to the initial
pricing provided in Exhibit A of this Agreement shall be accompanied by such
reasonable detail and documentation as to enable XXXXXX to understand the
basis for such pricing. The pricing shall include material costs (including,
but not limited to, bulk active ingredient costs which bulk active costs shall
include a reasonable profit margin to HMRI to be negotiated based upon quotes
from qualified, bona fide sources), manufacturing charges and packaging costs
on a fully allocated basis according to generally accepted accounting
principles. HMRI's cost of goods pricing to XXXXXX during 1997 for packaged
finished goods FOB Bridgewater, New Jersey shall be as set forth in Exhibit A,
attached hereto and made a part hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing
sentence, the parties understand that HMRI may move its production site for
any Product to a different site and that in such event Exhibit A of this
Agreement will be amended to reflect HMRI's cost of goods pricing to XXXXXX at
such new production site. XXXXXX agrees to pay the invoice amount for the
Products ordered by XXXXXX. Terms of payment shall be open account, net
forty-five (45) days from the later of receipt of invoice or shipment of the
Product.
1.6 Advertising/Marketing/Sales Costs and Product Pricing. XXXXXX shall
be responsible for all advertising, marketing and sales costs associated with
Product distribution. XXXXXX will have complete authority for all pricing
decisions for the Product sold by XXXXXX. XXXXXX agrees to keep HMRI
reasonably informed of price changes in excess of twenty-five percent (25%) or
such other percentage as mutually agreed to by the parties.
1.7 HMRI Net Profit Margin Share. The parties agree that HMRI shall
receive, on a monthly basis, payments from XXXXXX which shall be equal to
[*] of the XXXXXX Net Profit Margin realized on sales of any Product in the
Territory during each preceding calendar month. For the purposes of this
Section 1.7, XXXXXX Net Profit Margin shall mean XXXXXX Product gross sales
less actual chargebacks, rebates, price adjustments, returns and cash
discounts and less cost of goods as set forth in Section 1.5 herein. Exhibit
B, attached hereto and made a part hereof, sets forth the method of
calculation of HMRI Net Profit Margin Share. The monthly payments contemplated
by this Section 1.7 shall be made by check delivered to HMRI not
later than ninety (90) days following the close of each calendar month during
the Term of this Agreement.

which HMRI requests regarding the Product in order to comply with applicable
federal and state drug laws. Such information shall include, without
limitation, quantities of the Product sold. XXXXXX shall be responsible for
assuring that all promotional material produced by it relating to the Product
comply with federal, state and local law. XXXXXX shall provide to HMRI prior
to first use copies of all advertising, promotional material, labeling and
other literature used on, or in connection with, the Product. HMRI shall
supply to XXXXXX on a timely basis a copy of said FDA annual report.
4. PROPRIETARY RIGHTS AND TRADEMARKS
HMRI retains ownership of the NDA and any supplements thereto. HMRI is
the owner of certain proprietary information (the "Proprietary Rights") used
in connection with the manufacturing, sale and distribution of micronized
glyburide pharmaceutical preparations. No such Proprietary Rights are being
assigned, licensed or otherwise transferred hereunder, and XXXXXX acknowledges
that it shall have no rights hereunder to any such Proprietary Rights and
hereby agrees that it shall not contest or dispute the validity of or title to
any of such Proprietary Rights. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, XXXXXX agrees it shall not take or cooperate in litigation or
threatened litigation which might or is intended to impair or attack such
Proprietary Rights or which questions the paramount interest of HMRI or its
affiliates, licensees or assignees in the same. XXXXXX and its private label
customers shall market the Product under their own trade names and trademarks,
which shall not be confusingly similar to the trademark of HMRI for its
micronized glyburide product.
5. SECRECY
Except for literature and information intended for disclosure to
customers, each party will treat as confidential all technical and commercial
information acquired by it from the other party under this Agreement and will
take all necessary precautions to assure the secrecy of such confidential
information. Each party agrees to return to the other party upon the
expiration or termination of this Agreement all confidential technical and
commercial literature, data, and information acquired from the other party.
Neither party shall, during the term of this Agreement or for ten (10) years
thereafter, without the express prior written consent of the other party, use
or disclose any such information received by it from the other party pursuant
to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement for any purpose whatsoever.
6. WARRANTY
HMRI warrants that the Product manufactured by HMRI and sold to XXXXXX
pursuant to this Agreement will meet the specifications for the Product set
forth in the NDA in effect at the time of such shipment. HMRI reserves the
right to amend such specifications from time to time at the sole discretion of
HMRI; provided that XXXXXX is provided with written notice within a
commercially reasonable period of time in advance in order to effect any
necessary marketing or other changes. All Products will conform to, and the
Products manufactured by HMRI will be manufactured in conformity with, the
regulations of the Federal Food and Drug Administration and any comparable
state agency applicable thereto. None of the Product contained in any
shipment made hereunder to XXXXXX will, at the time of delivery, be
adulterated or misbranded within the meaning of the Federal Food, Drug and
Cosmetic Act, as amended (the "Act"), and those applicable state laws
substantially similar to the Act, as such Act and laws exist at the time of
delivery. None of the Products will be an article that may not, under the
provisions of the Act, be introduced into interstate commerce. The Products
shall conform with any specifications and quality assurance requirements
mutually agreed to in writing by the parties and, in any event, shall not
contain any poisonous or deleterious material. No Product shall infringe the
patent, trade secret or other proprietary right of any third party. THIS
WARRANTY IS THE ONLY WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, MADE BY HMRI AS TO THE
PRODUCT, AND ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR
ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE DISCLAIMED. Except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement, the exclusive remedy for breach of warranty shall be prompt
replacement of the nonconforming Product at HMRI's expense with a like amount
of the Product conforming to the above-stated warranty. For purposes hereof,
replacement may include reprocessing of the Product if done in a period of
time commercially reasonable to XXXXXX. In no event shall HMRI be liable to
XXXXXX for any alteration, change, improper packaging or other improper
treatment of the Product by XXXXXX other than in accordance with HMRI's
instructions; nor shall HMRI be liable to XXXXXX for any damage arising solely
from XXXXXX'x marketing, advertising, distribution or sale of the Product that
conforms to the warranty set forth above.

harmless XXXXXX and its affiliates (and each of their employees, officers,
directors and stockholders) from and against any and all claims, liabilities,
assessed damages, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, costs and
expenses of investigation and settlement, court costs and attorneys' fees and
expenses regardless of outcome, but excluding any indirect, incidental or
consequential damages or losses and lost profits) arising out of any claim of
defect in materials or workmanship of the Product, failure of the Product to
conform to the express warranty set forth in Section 6 hereinabove or alleged
or actual personal injury, illness, death or other harm, except to the extent
such claim arises out of XXXXXX'x breach of this Agreement, negligence or
misconduct.
8.2 Indemnification by XXXXXX. XXXXXX shall defend, indemnify and hold
harmless HMRI and its affiliates (and each of their employees, officers,
directors and stockholders) from and against any and all claims, liabilities,

that conforms to the express warranty set forth in Section 6 hereinabove or
caused by alterations to the Product made by XXXXXX after delivery by HMRI
other than in accordance with the written directions of HMRI, except to the
extent such claim arises out of HMRI's breach of this Agreement, negligence or
misconduct.
8.3 Indemnification Procedures. The parties shall cooperate and give each
other prompt notice of claims as to which indemnification may be claimed
hereunder. The indemnifying party may, at its option, control the defense of

promptly replace such nonconforming Product with conforming Product at no
additional cost to XXXXXX. XXXXXX'x failure to detect and/or give notice of
