Party agrees to cooperate with the other Party in claiming exemptions from such
deductions or withholdings under any agreement or treaty from time to time in
effect.
6.3.2 If medac has the legal obligation to collect and/or pay any
sales, use, excise or value added taxes, the appropriate amount shall be added

7. ADVERSE REACTION REPORTING.
7.1 Each Party responsible for any regulatory compliance relating to the
Compound or Product agrees to comply with the Drug Safety Agreement ("DSA")
attached to and made a part of this Agreement as Exhibit 7.1; provided, however,

Regulatory authority are more stringent in any respect, then the provisions,
rules and regulations of the Regulatory Authority shall apply and the Parties
shall cooperate with each other in order that compliance occurs in a timely
manner.
7.2 Investigation, Recall: In the event that the Regulatory Authority in
any country in the Territory or ROW shall allege or prove that the Product does
not comply with applicable rules and regulations in such country, DUSA shall
notify medac immediately and both Parties shall cooperate fully regarding the
investigation and disposition of any such matter. If DUSA is required or should
deem it appropriate to recall the Product and such recall is due to any
negligence, recklessness or wrongful intentional acts or omissions by, or strict
liability of, or breach of representation and warranty including, but not
limited to, non-compliance with cGMP, by, medac, then and in such event medac
shall bear all reasonable [ * ] associated with such recall, [ * ]. Otherwise,
DUSA shall [ * ].

Party of such disclosure requirement and, except to the extent inappropriate in
the case of patent applications, will use its best efforts to secure
confidential treatment of such Confidential Information required to be
disclosed.
8.5 Limitations on Use: Each Party shall limit the use, and cause each of
its Affiliates and its sublicensees, if any, to limit the use, of any

such use is solely in connection with the activities or transactions
contemplated hereby.
8.6 Remedies: Each Party shall be entitled, in addition to any other right
or remedy it may have, at law or in equity, to an injunction, without the
posting of any bond or other security, enjoining or restraining the other Party,

automatically renewed for successive one (1) year renewal periods (each, a
"Renewal Term"); provided, however, that at any time following expiration of the
Initial Term either Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon
[ * ] written notice (The Initial Term and all Renewal Terms, or parts thereof,
collectively, the "Term").

11.3 Termination for Cause: Either Party (the "Non-breaching Party") may,
without prejudice to any other remedies available to it at law or in equity,
terminate this Agreement, in whole or in part, in the event the other Party (the
"Breaching Party") shall have materially breached or defaulted in the

Any such termination shall become effective at the end of such [ * ]day period
unless the Breaching Party has cured any such breach or default prior to the
expiration of such [ * ]day period (or, if such default cannot be cured within
such [ * ]day period, if the Breaching Party has commenced and diligently

11.6.1 Termination, relinquishment or expiration of this Agreement for
any reason shall be without prejudice to any rights that 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

12. FORCE MAJEURE
Neither Party shall be held liable or responsible to the other Party nor be
deemed to be in default under, or in breach of any provision of, this Agreement
for failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any obligation of this

fault or negligence of the Party so failing or delaying. For purposes of this
Agreement, Force Majeure is defined as causes beyond the control of the Party,
including, without limitation, acts of God; acts, regulations, or laws of any
government; war; civil commotion; destruction of production facilities or

inability and of the period for which such inability is expected to continue.
The Party giving such notice shall thereupon be excused from such of its
obligations under this Agreement as it is thereby disabled from performing for

possible, each Party shall use reasonable efforts to minimize the duration of
any Force Majeure.

consolidation or involvement in a similar transaction or in the event of the
purchase of in excess of fifty percent (50%) of the voting securities of a Party

Agreement.
