3.2 Packaging.

(a) Packaging Layout. Supplier shall package the Products with the Trademarks and the trademarks of Purchaser’s Affiliate in accordance with the applicable Law, and such packaging shall indicate that Supplier, or its applicable Affiliate, is the fabricator thereof. The packaging and any other Printed Materials shall bear notices bearing trademark ownership. Supplier shall provide Purchaser with information regarding the dimensions and parameters of the Printed Materials. At least one hundred and fifty (150) days prior to the Required Delivery Date (as defined below), Purchaser shall provide Supplier with all artwork, copy or other material developed or produced by Purchaser or Abbott Canada for the Printed Materials. Supplier will review such suggested layout and make any reasonable objections or comments that it may have to such layout in writing no more than ten (10) Business Days after receipt. Notwithstanding this, Purchaser is responsible for ensuring Printed Material complies with Laws. The Supplier and Purchaser will then discuss the merits of such objections or comments and use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to mutually agree upon any disputed items with respect to the final layout and content of the Printed Materials. Supplier shall, at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense, provide Purchaser with proofs or samples of the Printed Materials to be used with Product for Purchaser’s prior review and approval; provided that, Purchaser shall prepare or arrange for the production of camera-ready artwork for the agreed Printed Materials.

(b) Changes to Packaging. Purchaser may from time to time request changes to the Printed Materials, which request shall be handled in accordance with Section 3.2(a). In addition, pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.1 below, Abbott Canada shall submit for approval changes to the approved labeling (including package inserts and primary packages) for the Product with the Regulatory Authority, to the extent approval is required, at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense.

(c) Obsolete Packaging. Supplier shall promptly implement any agreed change or approved change, as the case may be, to the Printed Materials pursuant to Section 3.2(b), or on such other specific timeframe as agreed by the Supplier and Purchaser on a case-by-case basis. In the event that Abbott Canada requests or is required by an applicable Law or Regulatory Authority to make changes in the Printed Materials for the Product, and Supplier has components for such Printed Materials in stock that it has purchased specifically for such Product, Purchaser shall have the obligation to purchase, at Supplier’s cost, the lesser of (a) six months’ supply of such components based on forecasts made by Purchaser for the Product with respect to the next six months, and (b) all of the Supplier stock of such components; provided that, the Parties agree, within 90 days of the date hereof, to re-negotiate this provision in good faith, so that, upon a change to Printed Materials, Purchaser bears the economic burden of components purchased on the basis of Purchaser’s Forecast in a minimum order quantity and which can only be used by Supplier to manufacture Product in the Territory (i.e., foil, cartons and product inserts).

All purchase orders shall be sent by Purchaser to the attention of the employee of Supplier as may from time to time be designated by Supplier. To the extent the terms of any purchase order or acknowledgment thereof are inconsistent with, or additional to, the terms of this Agreement, such terms are of no force and effect.

5.6 Relationship. The Parties hereto agree that any royalty determined pursuant to Section 5.5 above shall not constitute a sharing of profits between Purchaser and Supplier. The collection, holding and remittance of any such royalty by Purchaser shall in no way constitute Supplier as an agent or partner of Purchaser and the Parties hereto specifically renounce any intent to form a partnership or joint venture that may be inferred in connection with such royalty. Neither Party hereto has any authority to assume or create any obligation or liability, express or implied, on behalf of or in the name of the other Party in connection with the collection, holding and remittance of such royalty.

6. INSPECTION AND DEFECTIVE PRODUCTS

6.1 Receipt of Finished Product by Purchaser. Purchaser shall be entitled to reject any portion or all of any shipment of Finished Product that does not conform to the Certificate of Analysis and Compliance or otherwise fails to comply with the warranties set forth in Article 13 of this Agreement (unless such non-conformity was attributable to an act or omission of Purchaser, Abbott Canada or the common carrier once the Finished Product was delivered by Supplier to such common carrier); provided, that (i) Purchaser shall notify Supplier within [*] days after receipt of such shipment if it is rejecting a shipment due to physical damage, packaging defect or quantity discrepancies that are evident upon visual inspection of the packaged Finished Product as shipped by Supplier and (ii) in the case of Finished Product having defects not reasonably susceptible to discovery upon customary inspection upon receipt of Finished Product, Purchaser shall notify Supplier within [*] days after discovery of such defect (but in no event after expiration of the Product). If no notice is provided by Purchaser within the relevant time periods, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have accepted the shipment. Any notice of rejection by Purchaser shall be accompanied by a reasonably detailed statement of its reasons for rejection and a report of any pertinent analysis performed by Purchaser on the allegedly nonconforming Finished Product, together with the methods and procedures used. Supplier shall notify Purchaser as promptly as reasonably possible, but in any event within [*] Business Days after receipt of such notice of rejection, whether it accepts Purchaser’s assertions of nonconformity.

6.2 Replacement Finished Product. Whether or not Supplier accepts Purchaser’s assertion of nonconformity, promptly upon receipt of a notice of rejection, unless otherwise specified by Purchaser, Supplier shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide replacement Finished Product for those rejected by Purchaser in the original shipment. If the Finished Product rejected by Purchaser from such original shipment ultimately is found to be nonconforming (whether pursuant to Section 6.3 or if Supplier so acknowledges in writing), Supplier shall bear all expenses for such replacement Finished Product (including all transportation and/or disposal charges and cost of manufacture for such nonconforming Finished Product) to the extent Purchaser previously paid for any corresponding nonconforming Finished Product. If it is determined subsequently that such Finished Product was in fact conforming (whether pursuant to Section 6.3 or if Purchaser so acknowledges in writing), then Purchaser shall be responsible not only for the purchase price of the allegedly nonconforming Finished Product (including all transportation charges), but also, upon receipt and acceptance by Purchaser in accordance with the procedures (and at the same price charged in the original shipment) set forth above, the replacement Finished Product. Replacement shipments shall also be subject to the procedures contained in Section 4.

6.3 Independent Laboratory Analysis. If Supplier disagrees with any alleged nonconformity timely notified to Supplier under Section 6.1, then an independent laboratory (or other expert) of recognized repute reasonably acceptable to Supplier and Purchaser (the “Independent Laboratory”) shall analyze (i) a sample from the relevant shipment provided by Purchaser and (ii) a Shipment Sample as retained by Supplier in accordance with Section 4.5, as may be necessary to substantiate whether the shipment rejected by Purchaser conformed in all material respects to the Certificate of Analysis and Compliance and any other pertinent Specifications or otherwise failed to comply with the warranties set forth in Article 13 of this Agreement at the time of delivery to the common carrier. At the same time each of Supplier and Purchaser furnishes to the Independent Laboratory its sample, such party shall also furnish to the other party a split sample of such sample. In conducting its analysis hereunder, the Independent Laboratory shall use the same analytical methodology used by Supplier. Supplier shall provide a reasonably detailed description of such analytical methodology to the Independent Laboratory. Both Supplier and Purchaser agree to cooperate with the Independent Laboratory’s reasonable requests for assistance in connection with its analysis hereunder. The Independent Laboratory’s results of analysis, absent manifest error, shall be deemed final as to any dispute over compliance of the Finished Product in all material respects with the Certificate of Analysis and Compliance and/or any other pertinent Specifications and/or the warranties set forth in Article 13 of this Agreement. If the analysis of the Independent Laboratory shows that the Finished Product did not at the material time(s) conform in all material respects to the Certificate of Analysis and Compliance or any other pertinent Specifications or the warranties set forth in Article 13 of this Agreement at the time of delivery to the common carrier, the costs of such analysis shall be paid by Supplier. If the analysis of the Independent Laboratory shows that the Finished Product did at the material time(s) conform in all material respects to the Certificate of Analysis and Compliance and any other pertinent Specifications and the warranties set forth in Article 13 of this Agreement at the time of delivery to the common carrier, the costs of such analysis shall be paid by Purchaser.

6.4 Disposition of Non-Conforming Finished Product. If Supplier acknowledges an alleged nonconformity (or if the Independent Laboratory concludes that the Finished Product was nonconforming in accordance with Section 6.3), Supplier promptly (and in any case within thirty (30) days thereafter) shall make arrangements for the return, reworking or disposal, at Supplier’s option, of the nonconforming Finished Product. If Supplier requests that Purchaser dispose of such nonconforming Finished Product, Supplier shall give Purchaser written instructions as to how Purchaser or its agent shall, at Supplier’s expense, lawfully dispose of any non-conforming Finished Product, and Purchaser shall provide Supplier with written certification of such destruction. Supplier shall pay, or reimburse Purchaser, for any reasonable return shipping charges or out-of-pocket costs incurred by Purchaser for such return shipment or lawful disposal of such nonconforming Finished Product in accordance with Supplier’s instructions.

10.2 Subsequent Transfer Price.

(a) For each Contract Year during the remainder of the Term, commencing on December 1, 2008, Purchaser shall pay Supplier an amount per tablet equal to the Estimated Transfer Price.

Actual Transfer Price = [*]

(c) Notwithstanding anything hereunder to the contrary, in no event shall the Estimated Transfer Price or Actual Transfer Price be less than $[*] per tablet or more than $[*] per tablet.

(d)(i) If the Actual Transfer Price is greater than the Estimated Transfer Price for the applicable month, then Purchaser shall owe Supplier an amount equal to the difference between the Actual Transfer Price and the Estimated Transfer Price multiplied by the number of tablets sold in the applicable month to be paid to Supplier pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.2(e) below (the “Supplier Credited Amount”).

(ii) If the sum of the Purchaser Credited Amount for each of the three months in the applicable Contract Year quarter is greater than the sum of the Supplier Credited Amount for each of the three months in such Contract Year quarter, then Supplier shall pay to Purchaser an amount equal to the difference between the sum of the Purchaser Credited Amounts and the sum of the Supplier Credited Amounts within thirty (30) days following the end of such quarter.

(g) In the event the Actual Transfer Price calculated for any Contract Year quarter is less than $[*] per tablet (without regard to the limits set forth in Section 10.2(c)) due to changes in the Monthly Average Exchange Rate, the Supplier may notify the Purchaser in writing that it wishes to negotiate in good faith a new minimum floor price which is mutually acceptable to both Parties. In establishing such new minimum floor price, the Parties shall take into consideration all relevant factors, including, without limitation, changes in manufacturing costs and costs of raw materials and packaging materials resulting from fluctuation in the United States currency. In the event that, within three (3) months of such notice, the Parties are unable to establish a new minimum floor price for the Product, then the matter shall be referred to the most senior officers of each of the Parties who shall for an additional thirty (30) days negotiate in good faith to establish a new minimum floor price for the Product.

In establishing such new maximum ceiling price, the Parties shall take into consideration all relevant factors, including, without limitation, changes in manufacturing costs and costs of raw materials and packaging materials as well as changes in Supplier’s overall rate of return (relative to such Actual Transfer Price) resulting from fluctuation in the United States currency. In the event that, within three (3) months of such notice, the Parties are unable to establish a new maximum ceiling price for the Product, then the matter shall be referred to the most senior officers of each of the Parties who shall for an additional thirty (30) days negotiate in good faith to establish a new maximum ceiling price for the Product and pending resolution of such matter, the maximum ceiling price for the Product shall remain at $[*] per tablet.
