In addition, with respect to FG-4592, the term “Product Specifications”, as defined in Section 1.56 of the Agreement will apply to API only, provided, however, that FG and Astellas shall agree on any specifications to any Astellas Bulk Product produced by Astellas in any form or formulation.

Exhibit 10.9(i)

3)	Astellas shall have the right to manufacture Astellas Bulk Product in the Astellas Territory solely from API supplied by FG pursuant to Article 12 of the Agreement as follows:

Section 13.1 of the Agreement is amended to designate the existing paragraph subsection 13.1.1. and to add the following paragraph governing supply of FG-4592 as subsection 13.1.2:

13.1.2“With respect to FG-4592, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, FG hereby grants to Astellas an exclusive license under the FG Technology in the Astellas Territory to: (a) import API exclusively supplied by or on behalf of FG; and (b) manufacture and have manufactured Astellas Bulk Product from such API, solely for use pursuant to the license granted in Section 13.1.1.”

Astellas shall manufacture Astellas Bulk Product (i) solely in the Astellas Territory for use and sale in the Astellas Territory in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and (ii) solely using API supplied by or on behalf of FG.

The intent of this Amendment is that the Astellas will subcontract manufacturing of Astellas Bulk Product to its Affiliate Astellas Pharma Tech Co., Ltd. to manufacture at its facility in [*]. Astellas may subcontract its manufacture of Astellas Bulk Product to another Affiliate and/or a third party for non-commercial and commercial manufacturing pursuant to an agreement pre-approved in writing by FG (any such third party, excluding Astellas Pharma Tech Co., Ltd., a “Subcontractor”), provided, [*].
