sentence, the receiving Party may disclose the Confidential Information of the
disclosing Party to its employees, agents, consultants, and professional,

Confidential Information to carry out such Party’s obligations under this
Agreement; provided that any such person to whom disclosure is made is bound by
written or code of professional conduct obligations of non-disclosure and
non-use no less restrictive then those set forth herein. The receiving Party

in no event shall such care be less than reasonable care.
7.3    Exceptions. The obligations of non-disclosure and non-use under Section
7.2 will not apply as to particular Confidential Information of a disclosing

Information.
7.5    Remedies. The receiving Party agrees that its obligations under this
Article 7 are necessary and reasonable to protect the disclosing Party’s

injury, the degree of which may be difficult to ascertain. The receiving Party
further acknowledges and agrees that in the event of any actual or threatened
breach of this Article 7, the disclosing Party may have no adequate remedy at
law and, accordingly, that the disclosing Party will have the right to seek an
immediate injunction enjoining any breach or threatened breach of this Article
7, as well as the right to pursue any and all other rights and remedies

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

9.2    Termination Upon Material Breach. Upon any material breach of, or default
under, Section 6.1 of this Agreement by LICENSEE, LICENSOR may terminate this
Agreement by [***] ([***]) days written notice to LICENSEE. Said notice shall
become effective at the end of such period unless during said period LICENSEE
shall cure such defect or default.
9.3    Termination by LICENSEE. LICENSEE shall have the right to terminate this
Agreement at any time upon [***] ([***]) days written notice to LICENSOR in the
event that (a) within [***] ([***]) days after the Effective Date, LICENSEE
makes a good faith determination that the Licensed Technology infringes U.S.
Patent Number 5,214,052, (b) prior to the commercial launch of any Licensed
Product, any Third Party, other than [***] or any of its successors or assigns
(“[***]”) or [***] or any of its successors or assigns (“[***]”), alleges that
the Licensed Technology infringes any intellectual property right owned or
otherwise controlled by such Third Party, or (c) a court of competent
jurisdiction renders a final judgment or determination that the Licensed
Technology infringes any intellectual property right owned or otherwise
controlled by any Third Party, including without limitation [***] or [***], or
(d) the commercialization of any Licensed Product by LICENSEE creates a conflict
with any of LICENSEE’s partners, or (e) LICENSEE makes a good faith
determination that any Licensed Product is not suitable for commercial use,
where “not suitable for commercial use” means, for example, that such Licensed
Product is not safe, not effective, unstable, impure, fails to scale up, fails
analytical validation or fails to have suitable shelf life; provided that such
unsuitability is not caused by the API supplied by the LICENSEE.
9.4    Termination by LICENSOR. LICENSOR shall have the right to terminate this
Agreement in accordance with Section 6.2.
9.5    Consequences of Expiration or Termination. Upon expiration of this
Agreement in accordance with Section 9.1, but not early termination, the rights
and licenses granted by LICENSOR to LICENSEE pursuant to Article 3 shall become
fully paid-up, royalty­ free and irrevocable. In the event of termination of
this Agreement, each Party shall promptly return, or at the other Party’s
request destroy, any Confidential Information of the other Party in such Party’s
possession or control at the time of termination. In the case of termination of
this Agreement (a) by LICENSOR pursuant to Section 9.2 or 9.4, or (b) by
LICENSEE pursuant to Section 9.3, the rights and license granted hereunder to
LICENSEE shall terminate. In the case of termination of this Agreement by
LICENSOR pursuant to Section 9.2 or 9.4, LICENSEE shall supply LICENSOR with API
for any Licensed Product at a transfer price equal to the [***] for such API
plus [***] percent ([***]%); provided that a court of competent jurisdiction has
not held that the Licensed Technology infringes the intellectual property rights
of any Third Party; provided further that such supply does not conflict with any
contractual obligations of LICENSEE. In the event of any termination of this
Agreement, (i) any sublicense granted by LICENSEE prior to the effective date of
such termination shall survive such termination, and (ii) all sublicense
royalties or other sublicense-related consideration that the sublicensee would
have owed to LICENSEE under such sublicense shall be paid by such sublicensee to
LICENSOR.

and 11.4 shall survive expiration or termination of this Agreement, as

[***] Certain information in this document has been omitted and filed separately
with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been
requested with respect to the omitted portions.

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

shall survive expiration, but not termination, of this Agreement, and (b) in the
event that LICENSOR terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.4, Section
6.2 shall survive.

will, directly or indirectly, whether alone or in collaboration with any Third
Party, conduct research, register, develop, manufacture, supply, commercialize,
market or otherwise engage in activities with respect to any finished
pharmaceutical product for sale in the prescription drug marketplace that
contains Compound as the active ingredient, except as agreed in writing with
LICENSEE.
11.4    Disclaimer of Warranties. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED FOR IN THIS
ARTICLE 11, LICENSOR AND LICENSEE EACH MAKES NO, AND HEREBY DISCLAIMS ANY AND
ALL, REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH
RESPECT TO THE LICENSED PATENT RIGHTS, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES
OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT OF ANY
THIRD PARTY’S PROPRIETARY RIGHTS.
12.    GENERAL
12.1    Further Actions. From time to time on and after the Effective Date, each
Party shall at the reasonable request of the other Party (a) deliver to the
other Party such records, data, or other documents consistent with the
provisions of this Agreement; (b) execute, and deliver or cause to be delivered,
all assignments, consents, documents or further instruments of transfer or
license; and (c) take or cause to be taken all other actions as such other Party
may reasonably deem necessary or desirable, in each case in order for such Party
to obtain the full benefits of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby.
12.2    No Consequential Damages. EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO UNAUTHORIZED
EXPLOITATION OF A PARTY’S INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OR BREACH OF THE
CONFIDENTIALITY OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY
BE LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, OR
SPECIAL DAMAGES OF THE OTHER PARTY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT,
HOWEVER CAUSED, UNDER ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY.
12.3    Waiver. Neither Party may waive or release any of its rights or
interests in this Agreement except in writing. A waiver by a Party of any of the
terms and conditions of this Agreement in any instance will not be deemed or
construed to be a waiver of such term or condition for the future, or of any
subsequent breach hereof. Failure to assert any right arising from this
Agreement shall not be deemed or construed to be a waiver of such right.
12.4    Severability. When possible, each provision of this Agreement will be
interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law,
but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid
under applicable law, such provision will be ineffective but only to the extent
of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such
provision or of this Agreement. The Parties will make a good faith effort to
replace the invalid or unenforceable provision with a valid one which in its
economic effect is most consistent with the invalid or unenforceable provision.
12.5    Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement
between the Parties relating to the subject matter thereof, and all prior and
contemporaneous negotiations,

[***] Certain information in this document has been omitted and filed separately
with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been
requested with respect to the omitted portions.

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

representations, agreements and understandings are merged into, extinguished by,
and completely expressed by it.
12.6    Amendment. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be
binding on a Party to this Agreement unless consented to in writing and signed
by such Party. Signatures and writings in an electronic form do not constitute
or create a writing signed by a Party.
12.7    Captions. The captions to this Agreement are for convenience only, and
are to be of no force or effect in construing or interpreting any of the
provisions of this Agreement.
12.8    Governing Law. This Agreement and its effects are subject to and shall
be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York
without giving effect to any conflicts of law principle that would result in the
application of the laws of any State other than the State of New York.
12.9    Arbitration.
12.9.1    The Parties agree the procedures set forth in this Section 12.9 shall
be the exclusive mechanism for resolving any bona fide disputes, controversies
or claims (collectively, “Disputes”) between the Parties that arise from time to
time pursuant to this Agreement relating to any Party’s rights and/or
obligations hereunder that cannot be resolved through good faith negotiation
between the Parties.
12.9.2    Any and all unresolved Disputes, except as set forth in Sections
12.9.6 or 12.9.7 below, shall be exclusively and finally resolved by binding
arbitration.
12.9.3    Any arbitration concerning a Dispute submitted by LICENSOR shall be
conducted in San Francisco, California, unless otherwise agreed to by LICENSOR
and LICENSEE in writing. Any arbitration concerning a Dispute submitted by
LICENSEE shall be conducted in Reston, Virginia, unless otherwise agreed to by
LICENSEE and LICENSOR in writing. Each and any arbitration shall be administered
by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), and shall be conducted in
accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the AAA (the “Rules”), as
such Rules may be amended from time to time.
12.9.4    Within ten (10) days after receipt of an arbitration notice from a
Party, the Parties shall attempt in good faith to agree on a single neutral
arbitrator with relevant industry experience to conduct the arbitration. If the
Parties do not agree on a single neutral arbitrator within ten (10) days after
receipt of an arbitration notice, each Party shall select one (1) arbitrator and
the two (2) Party-selected arbitrators shall select a third arbitrator with
relevant industry experience to constitute a panel of three (3) arbitrators to
conduct the arbitration in accordance with the Rules. In the event that only one
of the Parties selects an arbitrator, then such arbitrator shall be entitled to
act as the sole arbitrator to resolve the Dispute or any all unresolved issues
subject to the arbitration. Each and all arbitrator(s) of the arbitration panel
conducting the arbitration must and shall agree to render an opinion within
twenty (20) days after the final hearing before the panel.

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

12.9.5    The decision or award of the arbitrator(s) shall be final, binding and
incontestable and may be used as a basis for judgment thereon in any
jurisdiction. The Parties hereby expressly agree to waive the right to appeal
from the decision of the arbitrator(s). Accordingly, there shall be no appeal to
any court or other authority (government or private) from the decision of the
arbitrator(s), and the Parties shall not dispute nor question the validity of
such decision or award before any regulatory or other authority in any
jurisdiction where enforcement action is taken by the Party in whose favor the
decision or award is rendered, except in the case of fraud. The arbitrator(s)
shall, upon the request of either Party, issue a written opinion of the findings
of fact and conclusions of law and shall deliver a copy to each of the Parties.
Each Party shall bear its own costs and attorneys’ fees, and the Parties shall
equally bear the fees, costs, and expenses of the arbitrator(s) and the
arbitration proceedings; provided, however, that the arbitrator(s) may exercise
discretion to award costs, including attorneys’ fees, to the prevailing Party.
Without limiting any other remedies that may be available under applicable law,
the arbitrator(s) shall have no authority to award provisional remedies of any
nature whatsoever, injunctive relief, or punitive, special, consequential or any
other similar form of damages.
12.9.6    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, a Party may seek a
temporary restraining order or a preliminary injunction from any court of
competent jurisdiction in order to prevent immediate and irreparable injury,
loss, or damage on a provisional basis, pending the decision of the
arbitrator(s) on the ultimate merits of any Dispute.
12.9.7    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any and all issues regarding
the scope, construction, validity and enforceability of one or more patents
shall be determined in a court of competent jurisdiction under the local patent
laws of the jurisdictions having issued the patent or patents in question;
provided that with respect to any such issues regarding a United States patent,
each Party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the
United States Federal Court sitting in the Eastern District of Virginia, and
each hereby waives the defense of any inconvenient forum for the maintenance of
such action or proceeding.
12.10    Relationship of the Parties. The relationship of LICENSOR and LICENSEE
established by this Agreement is that of independent contractors. Nothing in
this Agreement shall be constructed to create any other relationship between
LICENSOR and LICENSEE. Neither Party shall have any right, power or authority to
bind the other Party or assume, create or incur any expense, liability or
obligation, express or implied, on behalf of the other Party.
12.11    Use of Names. Except as otherwise required under applicable law, and
subject to Section 7.6, neither Party will use the name of the other Party in
its advertising, press releases or promotional materials without the prior
written consent of such other Party.
12.12    Notice. Any notice, report, communication, or consent required or
permitted by this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be sent (a) by prepaid
registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, (b) by overnight express
delivery service by an internationally recognized courier, or (c) via confirmed
facsimile or telecopy, followed within five (5) days by a copy mailed in the
preceding manner, addressed to the other Party at the address shown below or at
such other address as such Party gives written notice hereunder. Such notice
will be deemed to have been given when delivered or, if delivery is not
