 2.1
    
    Pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, ANDRX shall purchase

ANDRX on a non-exclusive basis; provided, however, that PFIZER shall sell and ANDRX
shall be entitled to market, sell, promote and/or distribute Products on an exclusive
basis (except as to PFIZERs branded Glucotrol XL® product) for a period beginning on

date shall be extended if for any reason, including Force Majeure, PFIZER is unable to
supply quantities of the Products to ANDRX pursuant to a Firm Order by the number of
days that PFIZER is unable to supply pursuant to such Firm Order. After the expiration
of the Exclusivity Period, the Agreement will continue on a non-exclusive basis for
the remainder of its term. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if ANDRX markets any ANDRX
ANDA Product prior to the end of the Exclusivity Period, the Exclusivity Period shall
immediately terminate with respect to such ANDRX ANDA
   7

##### 



Product upon the first commercial sale of such ANDRX ANDA Product to a Third Party
(as evidenced by invoices, transfer documents, shipping documents or the like to
such Third Party). It is the understanding of the Parties that after the
expiration of the Exclusivity Period, PFIZER shall have the right to sell Products
to Third Parties provided in any such case, it does not adversely affect PFIZERs
ability to manufacture or supply the Products to ANDRX as provided in this
Agreement.2.2
    
    ANDRX shall not promote or distribute the Products outside the Territory or

employs with respect to its other products, provided however, that ANDRX shall not be
deemed to have failed to abide by or have failed to perform in accordance with the
foregoing standard or promotional effort if (1) ANDRX is prevented from performing or
hindered in its performance of such standard by any act or omission of PFIZER; or (2)
by virtue of ANDRXs sale or marketing of the ANDRX ANDA Products. The exercise of a
right specifically conferred by this Agreement shall not, by itself, constitute either
a failure by ANDRX to satisfy its obligation, pursuant to this section, to use
Commercially Reasonable Efforts to promote the Products, or an act or omission by
PFIZER that prevents or hinders ANDRX from satisfying that obligation.

2.3

    FORECASTS AND SUPPLY
 3.1
    (a)
    
    ANDRX shall provide PFIZER with a Firm Order for the period from the date
hereof up to and including March 31, 2004, which Firm Order shall be attached as
Schedule A. PFIZER shall supply the quantities set forth on Schedule A for each
Product in accordance with the delivery schedule set forth therein, provided that the
initial delivery date is no less than [***] days following receipt by PFIZER of
approved label copy and tablet imprinting directions from ANDRX. PFIZER shall use
Commercially Reasonable Efforts to supply Products to ANDRX as set forth in Schedule A
no later than the Commencement Date. To the extent such Firm Order is not sufficient
to meet ANDRXs actual requirements for any Product for such period, PFIZER shall use
its Commercially Reasonable Efforts to supply ANDRX with its requirements beyond the
amounts set forth on Schedule A. For periods after March 31, 2004, Firm Orders shall
be filled by PFIZER in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.1(b) and (c).(b)
    
    Except as provided in Section 3.1(a), within [***] after the
beginning of each Calendar Quarter (commencing with the first Calendar Quarter
of 2004), ANDRX shall give to PFIZER a forecast of ANDRXs estimated quarterly
requirements of the Products for the following [***]. [***] forecast delivered
to PFIZER pursuant to the preceding sentence shall represent ANDRXs
reasonable estimates of the quantity of the Products
   9

##### 



that ANDRX will require during [***] to which such forecast applies, and the
forecast of its requirements of the Products during the first quarter of such
[***] period shall be reflected in a Firm Order accompanying such forecast.(c)
    
    Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as provided for below,
any Firm Order (except for the first Firm Order), for any Product placed for a
Calendar Quarter in accordance with Section 3.1(b) shall be between [***] of
the most recent forecast estimated quantity for such Product for such Calendar
Quarter provided by ANDRX to PFIZER in accordance with this Section 3.1,
except that Firm Orders shall not be required to be between [***] of the most
recent forecast in any Calendar Quarter in which a new generic glipizide
extended release product enters the market. If requested by ANDRX, PFIZER
shall use its Commercially Reasonable Efforts to supply an amount exceeding
[***] of the most recent forecast estimated quantity for a Product.(d)
    
    PFIZER shall promptly notify ANDRX in writing if at any time
PFIZER has reason to believe that PFIZER will not be able to fill at [***] of
a Firm Order for any Product in accordance with the delivery schedule
specified therein by ANDRX and pursuant to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement. PFIZER shall deliver Product to ANDRX pursuant to each Firm Order
no more than [***] after ANDRXs requested delivery date, provided that such
Firm Orders are delivered to PFIZER at [***] to ANDRXs requested delivery
date.

##### 



(e)
    
    During any period in which PFIZER does not or cannot for any
reason supply all of ANDRXs requirements of the Products pursuant to a Firm
Order, then PFIZER will supply ANDRX on a [***] before producing Products for
any Third Party or for its own branded Glucotrol XL® product or generic
Product. [***](f)
    
    In the event ANDRX intends to manufacture and/or market any
of the ANDRX ANDA Products, it shall have the right to do so without
terminating this Agreement. In such event, ANDRX shall give PFIZER [***]
prior written notice of its intention to do so. Upon the effective date of
such written notice, PFIZER shall be relieved of its obligations to
manufacture and supply Products for ANDRX, other than the fulfillment of Firm
Orders. ANDRX will remain obligated to purchase previously provided Firm
Orders. If ANDRX ceases providing Firm Orders to PFIZER and then later wishes
to resume purchase of any of the Products pursuant to this Agreement, PFIZER
and ANDRX will discuss in good faith the feasibility of such request. If
PFIZER determines, in its sole discretion, that it has the resources and
capacity to accommodate ANDRXs request, then ANDRX shall provide PFIZER with
a new Firm Order for such Products with a delivery date [***] from receipt by
PFIZER of the Firm Order.(g)
    
    All forecasts to be provided or delivered by ANDRX to PFIZER
pursuant to this Section 3.1 shall be in writing.

    PFIZER agrees to accept all Firm Orders submitted in accordance with and on
the terms set forth in this Agreement. No terms and conditions contained in any Firm
Order, acknowledgment, invoice, bill of lading, acceptance or other preprinted form

modify the terms and conditions contained herein.3.3

##### 



month period and each twelve (12) month period thereafter, ANDRX and PFIZER
agree to discuss in good faith the establishment of a new Transfer Price.
Additionally, either party may request a new Transfer Price from time to time
for good cause or, in any case, if the Reconciliation Statement (defined in
4.2(a) below) reflects a discrepancy of [***] or greater, then the Parties
shall adjust the Transfer Price in an amount which the Parties determine in
good faith reflects an appropriate Transfer Price based upon then existing
market conditions.(b)
    
    If, in any Reporting Period, the Net Sales price per bottle, multiplied by
[***], is less than the amounts set forth below, the parties will discuss in
good faith any amendments to the Agreement necessary to make the Agreement
economically viable for both parties
      4.2
    (a)
    
    Within [***] of the end of each Reporting Period, ANDRX will determine
the quantity of each Product sold by ANDRX during the Reporting Period, and the
corresponding Net Sales and aggregate Transfer Price associated with the units of

##### 



(b)
    
    In the event that [***] of Net Sales for all Products for

Price for Products sold in the Reporting Period, ANDRX shall pay to PFIZER the
amount of such excess. Such payment by ANDRX shall be made within [***] after
delivery of the Reconciliation Statement to PFIZER.(c)
    
    In the event that the corresponding aggregate Transfer Price

Net Sales for all Products for such Reporting Period, either (1) ANDRX shall
pay to PFIZER [***] of the Net Sales for all Products sold by ANDRX during
such Reporting Period as reflected in the Reconciliation Statement in lieu of
the Transfer Price or (2) if all or any part of the Transfer Price was
previously paid by ANDRX, PFIZER shall pay to ANDRX the amount by which the
Net Sales for all Products sold by ANDRX during such Reporting Period, as
reflected in the Reconciliation Statement, exceeds the Transfer Price. In the
case of overpayments described in (2) above, PFIZER shall make such payment to
ANDRX within [***] of the delivery of the Reconciliation Statement to PFIZER.(d)
    
    ANDRX shall keep complete and accurate books and records
setting forth gross sales, Net Sales, aggregate Transfer Price, and amounts
payable to PFIZER hereunder. ANDRX shall permit PFIZER at PFIZERs expense, by
independent certified public accountants employed by PFIZER and acceptable to
ANDRX, to examine such books and records at any reasonable time, [***]
following the rendering of the reports, accountings

and payments that are the subject of the examination. As a condition to such
examination, such independent accountants shall execute a written agreement,
reasonably satisfactory to ANDRX, obligating such accountants to maintain in
confidence all information disclosed to such accountants during the examination
and all information generated by such accountants pursuant to the examination.
Such accountants shall not disclose to PFIZER any of ANDRXs cost data.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, such accountants shall be permitted to issue a
written statement to PFIZER and ANDRX to the effect that they have reviewed the
books and records of ANDRX and either (a) that the amounts of the payments made
to PFIZER are in conformity with the books and records and the applicable
provisions of this Agreement, or (b) that adjustments of specified amounts
should be made.(e)
    
    If ANDRX and PFIZER are unable to agree upon any amount
payable to either party under this Agreement, then they agree to retain a
mutually acceptable independent certified public accounting firm, from among
the then five (5) largest independent public accounting firms practicing in
the Territory, to review the relevant books and records and to submit to the
parties its written determination as to the amount in dispute and the basis
for its determination. The determination by the independent accounting firm
will be binding on the parties absent manifest error. Each party shall pay
one-half of the fees and expenses of the independent accounting firm for such
determination. If any such examination shows any underpayment
   15

##### 



or overpayment, a correcting payment or refund shall be made within [***] days
after receipt of such written statement.
 V.
    
    PRODUCT TESTING/INSPECTION
 5.1
    
    PFIZER shall perform quality assurance testing with respect to the Products

Specifications. PFIZER shall provide to ANDRX a certificate for the Product
describing the Product, product number, lot number and expiration date, the physical,
chemical, biological or other testing results and specifications relating to the
Product and certifying that the Product meets the Specifications to ANDRX in the form
of a Certificate of Analysis (hereinafter COA). PFIZER will also provide ANDRX with
Material Safety Data Sheets (hereinafter MSDS) as required for the Products, and
updates of same as necessary. ANDRX will permit PFIZERs personnel, upon reasonable
notice, to visit at reasonable intervals, and for reasonable durations during regular
business hours, any ANDRX facility used for the storage and distribution of the
Products and will allow such personnel to review and make copies of any relevant
records in connection therewith.5.2
    
    ANDRX shall have a period of [***] from the later of (a) the date of ANDRXs
receipt of the Products in accordance with Section 3.4 hereof, or (b) the date of
ANDRXs receipt of the COAs applicable to such Product, to inspect any shipment of a
Product to determine whether such shipment conforms to the Specifications. If ANDRX
determines that a Product does not conform to the Specifications, it shall notify
PFIZER, immediately, if
   16




---



##### 



possible, but no later than [***] after determining a Product doesnt conform to
the Specifications. ANDRXs failure to notify PFIZER within the stipulated period
will be deemed, for purposes of this Agreement, as ANDRXs acceptance of such
shipment and shall constitute a waiver of any claims ANDRX may have against PFIZER
with respect to such shipment subject, however, to ANDRXs right to reject such
Product for latent defects discovered by ANDRX or ANDRXs customer(s) after such
stipulated period has expired. If PFIZER agrees that a Product does not conform to
the Specifications, ANDRX shall return the non-conforming Product to PFIZER, at a
location designated by PFIZER and at PFIZERs expense. PFIZER, at no expense to
ANDRX, shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to replace any non-conforming
Product within the shortest possible time.5.3
    
    In the event PFIZER does not agree with ANDRXs determination that a Product
fails to meet Specifications, the Parties shall, in good faith, attempt to resolve
such dispute. In the event the Parties cannot resolve said dispute among themselves
they may submit the matter to an independent Third Party testing laboratory agreeable
to both ANDRX and PFIZER for a binding opinion. The expenses of obtaining the binding
opinion shall be equally shared by ANDRX and PFIZER. In the event that the Parties do
not agree to submit the dispute to a testing laboratory, the Parties shall remain free
to pursue any legal, equitable or administrative remedies to which they may be
entitled.

adverse drug experience reports and other medical inquiries associated with a Product
within [***] of ANDRXs receipt of such reports. PFIZER will be responsible for

reports.6.2
    
    In the event ANDRX or PFIZER shall be required or requested by any
governmental authority (or shall voluntarily decide) to recall a Product because such
Product may violate any Laws or for any other reason, the Parties shall cooperate
fully with one another in connection with any recall. The Parties agree that if either
Party reasonably believes a voluntary recall is necessary, the other Party shall not
object to such recall. If a recall is due to PFIZERs negligence, willful misconduct
or breach of this Agreement, PFIZER shall reimburse ANDRX for the Transfer Price paid
by ANDRX for such recalled Product, all of the reasonable costs and expenses actually
incurred by ANDRX in connection with the recall, including, but not limited to, the
costs of retrieving Products already delivered to customers, the costs and expenses
ANDRX is required to pay for notification, shipping and handling charges, and such
other costs as may be reasonably related to the recall. If a recall is due to ANDRXs
negligence, willful misconduct or breach of this Agreement, ANDRX shall remain
responsible for the Transfer Price for the recalled Product and shall reimburse PFIZER
for all the reasonable costs and expenses described above actually incurred by PFIZER
in connection with such recall including administration of the recall and such other
actual costs as may be reasonably related to the recall. If a recall results from a

recall, including the Transfer Price in the following percentage, PFIZER [***] and

    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth elsewhere herein, ANDRX
shall have the right, without PFIZERs prior approval, to promote and publicize the

Products as it usually and customarily provides for its own products utilizing its

writing, the other Party or Parties (Indemnifying Party) within [***] days of the
assertion of any claim or discovery of any fact upon which the Indemnified Party

indemnify hereunder, shall be responsible for the defense of any claim, demand,
lawsuit or other proceeding in which the allegations, if proved, would trigger the
Indemnifying Partys obligations under Section 8.1 or 8.2. The Indemnified Party
shall have the right at its own expense to participate jointly with the
Indemnifying Party in the defense of any such claim, demand, lawsuit or other
proceeding, but the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to settle, try or
otherwise dispose of or handle such claim, demand, lawsuit or other proceeding on
such terms as the Indemnifying Party shall deem appropriate, subject to any
reasonable objection of the Indemnified Party. Any settlement agreed to by the
Indemnifying Party over the objection of the Indemnified Party may provide only
monetary relief and may not include any admission of liability.8.4
    
    Each Party will provide each other Party with evidence of insurance
reflecting the comprehensive general liability and products liability programs each
has in effect and name the other Party as an additional insured with respect to sale
of the Products.
