  5.2 Remedies for Non Conforming Product: In the event ALTHEA agrees that the
Batch of Drug Product is non-conforming as a result of the negligence, willful
misconduct, or breach of this agreement by ALTHEA or the laboratory determines
that the shipment of Drug Product is non-conforming as a result of the
negligence, willful misconduct, or breach of this Agreement by ALTHEA, then
ALTHEA, at CLIENT’S option, and at ALTHEA’S sole cost and expense shall either
(i) replace such non-conforming Drug Product within sixty (60) calendar days
from receipt of replacement Bulk Drug Substance from CLIENT and reimburse CLIENT
for reasonable costs of replacing Bulk Drug Substance, or (ii) refund the
Purchase Price of the non-conforming Drug Product and reimburse CLIENT for the
reasonable costs of replacing Bulk Drug Substance. ALTHEA will obtain specific

insurance shall be at the CLIENT’S expense. In no event will ALTHEA’S liability
for the replacement costs of Bulk Drug Substance exceed $[******].

 

  5.3 Non-conforming Bulk Drug Substance: If Drug Product is rejected by CLIENT,
and such Drug Product’s failure to meet the Product Requirements is the result
of non-conforming Bulk Drug Substance, then such non-conformity shall be deemed
not to be non-conforming solely as a result of the negligence of ALTHEA.

Article 6, DRUG PRODUCT RECALLS.

 

  6.1 Drug Product Recalls: In the event CLIENT shall be required to recall any
Drug Product because such Drug Product may violate local, state or federal laws
or regulations, the laws or regulations of any applicable foreign government or
agency or the Drug Product Specifications, or in the event that CLIENT elects to

recall. CLIENT promptly shall notify ALTHEA if any Drug Product is the subject
of a recall and provide ALTHEA with a copy of all documents relating to such
recall. ALTHEA shall cooperate with CLIENT in connection with any recall, at
CLIENT’s expense. CLIENT shall be responsible for all of the costs and expenses
of such recall.

Article 7, FORCE MAJEURE; FAILURE TO SUPPLY.

Agreement (except the obligation to make payments) shall not subject such party
to any liability to the other if such failure is caused by acts of God, acts of
terrorism, fire, explosion, flood, drought, war, riot, sabotage, embargo,
strikes or other labor trouble, compliance with any order or regulation of any
government entity, or by any cause beyond the reasonable control of the affected
party, whether or not foreseeable, provided that written notice of such event is
promptly given to the other party.

 

  7.2 Failure to Supply: If ALTHEA fails to supply all or any material part of
Drug Product ordered by CLIENT, CLIENT may require ALTHEA to supply the

Article 12, LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND WAIVER OF SUBROGATION.

 

  12.1 Limitation of Liability: Except as is otherwise set forth in Section 5,
ALTHEA’s liability to CLIENT for any breach of this Agreement is limited to the
value of the contract, as reflected on the applicable Project Plan. Under no
circumstances shall ALTHEA be liable for loss of use or profits or other
collateral, special, consequential or other damages, losses, or expenses,
including but not limited to the cost of cover (except as is otherwise set forth
in Section 5) or the cost of a recall in connection with, or by reason of the
Production and delivery of Drug Product under this Agreement whether such claims
are founded in tort or contract. The foregoing constitutes the sole and
exclusive remedy of CLIENT and the sole and exclusive liability of ALTHEA. All
claims by CLIENT for breach or default under this Agreement shall be brought
within one (1) year after the cause of action accrued or shall be deemed waived.

 

  12.2 Waiver of Subrogation: All ALTHEA Supplied Components and equipment used
by ALTHEA in the Production of Drug Product (collectively, “ALTHEA Property”)
shall at all times remain the property of ALTHEA and ALTHEA assumes risk of loss
for such property until delivery of Drug Product to a common carrier as
specified under Section 2.8. ALTHEA hereby waives any and all rights of recovery
against CLIENT and its Affiliates, and against any of their respective
directors, officers, employees, agents or representatives, for any loss or
damage to ALTHEA Property to the extent the loss or damage is covered or could
be covered by insurance (whether or not such insurance is described in this
Agreement). CLIENT assumes all risk of loss for all CLIENT Supplied Components,
all Bulk Drug Substance supplied by CLIENT, and all Drug Product (collectively,
“CLIENT Property”), unless the loss or damage occurs through no fault of CLIENT,
as the result of hazard, accident or the negligence or willful malfeasance of
ALTHEA, while such CLIENT Property is in the possession and control of ALTHEA.
CLIENT hereby waives any and all rights of recovery against ALTHEA and its
Affiliates, and against any of their respective directors, officers, employees,
agents or representatives, for any loss or damage to the CLIENT Property to the
extent the loss or damage is covered or could be covered by insurance (whether
or not such insurance is described in this Agreement).

Article 13, INDEMNIFICATION.

 

  13.1 CLIENT Indemnification: CLIENT shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless
ALTHEA and its Affiliates, and any of their respective directors, officers,

judgments, demands, actions, disbursements of any kind and nature, suits,
losses, damages, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable
attorney’s fees) arising out of or in connection with property damage or
personal injury (including without limitation death) of third parties
(collectively “Claims”) in connection with (a) CLIENT’s storage, promotion,
labeling, marketing, distribution, use or sale of Bulk Drug Substance or Drug
Product, (b) CLIENT’s negligence or willful misconduct, (c) CLIENT’s breach of
this Agreement, or (d) any claim that the use, sale, Production, marketing or
distribution of Bulk Drug Substance or Drug Product by ALTHEA or CLIENT violates
the patent, trademark, copyright or other proprietary rights of any third party,
except to the extent any of the foregoing (a) or (d) is caused by the negligence
or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Parties or by the breach by ALTHEA of
its obligations under this Agreement.

 

ALTHEA CONFIDENTIAL   15

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  13.2 ALTHEA Indemnification: ALTHEA shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless
CLIENT and its Affiliates and any of their respective directors, officers,
employees, subcontractors and agents (collectively the “CLIENT Indemnitees”)
from and against any and all Claims arising out of the ALTHEA Indemnitees’
negligence, willful misconduct or breach of their obligations under this
Agreement.

 

  13.3 Indemnitee Obligations: A party (the “Indemnitee”) which intends to claim
indemnification under this Article 13 shall promptly notify the other party (the
“Indemnitor”) in writing of any action, claim or other matter in respect of
which the Indemnitee or any of its Affiliates, or any of their respective
directors, officers, employees, subcontractors, or agents, intend to claim such
indemnification; provided, however, that failure to provide such notice within a
reasonable period of time shall not relieve the Indemnitor of any of its
obligations hereunder except to the extent the Indemnitor is prejudiced by such
failure. The Indemnitee shall permit, and shall cause its Affiliates, and their
respective directors, officers, employees, subcontractors and agents to permit,
the Indemnitor, at its discretion, to settle any such action, claim or other
matter, and the Indemnitee agrees to the complete control of such defense or
settlement by the Indemnitor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnitor
shall not enter into any settlement that would adversely affect the Indemnitee’s
rights hereunder, or impose any obligations on the Indemnitee in addition to
those set forth herein, in order for it to exercise such rights, without
Indemnitee’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed. No such action, claim or other matter shall be settled without the
prior written consent of the Indemnitor, which shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed. The Indemnitee, its Affiliates, and their respective
directors, officers, employees, subcontractors and agents shall fully cooperate
with the Indemnitor and its legal representatives in the investigation and
defense of any action, claim or other matter covered by the indemnification
obligations of this Article 13. The Indemnitee shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to be represented in such defense by counsel of its own selection
and at its own expense.

 

  13.4 Injunction: In the event that the Production or sale of a Drug Product is
enjoined due to alleged infringement by either party of the proprietary rights
of a third party, such action shall be deemed a breach of this Agreement by
CLIENT and subject to the terms of Article 3.
