 MISCELLANEOUS
  13.1.  Force Majeure.No Party shall be held liable or responsible to any other Party or be deemed to have defaulted under or breached this Agreement for failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any term of this Agreement (other than an obligation to make payments) when such failure or delay is caused by or results from events beyond the reasonable control of the non-performing Party, including fires, floods, earthquakes, hurricanes, embargoes, shortages, epidemics, quarantines, war, acts of war (whether war be declared or not), terrorist acts, insurrections, riots, civil commotion, strikes, lockouts, or other labor disturbances (whether involving the workforce of the non-performing Party or of any other Person), acts of God or acts, omissions or delays in acting by any governmental authority (except to the extent such delay results from the breach by the non-performing Party or any of its Affiliates of any term or condition of this Agreement).  The non-performing Party shall notify the other Parties of such force majeure within thirty (30) days after such occurrence by giving written notice to the other Parties stating the nature of the event, its anticipated duration, and any action being taken to avoid or minimize its effect.

With respect to an assignment to an Affiliate, Salix shall remain responsible for the performance by such Affiliate of Salix’s rights and obligations hereunder.

To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Party hereby waives any provision of law that would render any provision hereof illegal, invalid, or unenforceable in any respect.
  13.5.  Governing Law, Disputes.

In such case, within [****] days after the provision of notice described in the preceding sentence, each of Salix and RedHill shall select one person to act as arbitrator.  If either Salix or RedHill shall fail within the designated time period to select an arbitrator, then the arbitrator to be so selected shall be selected by the International Chamber of Commerce.  The two (2) persons so selected as arbitrators shall select a third arbitrator within [****] days of their appointment.

The arbitrator(s) may extend this time limit in the interests of justice.  Failure to adhere to this time limit shall not constitute a basis for challenging the award.

 STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL
 13.5.7.  Confidentiality.  Except as may be required by Applicable Law, (including applicable securities laws or rules of a securities exchange) or as may be necessary to enforce the arbitration award or the provisions of this Section ‎13.5, and except for disclosures made by a Party to its accountants, insurers, consultants, or attorneys or to actual or potential lenders, non-public investors, rating agencies, acquirors, or business partners who are under obligations to the disclosing Party to hold the disclosed information in confidence, neither a Party nor its or his representatives may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of the other Party.
  13.5.8.  Equitable, Interim or Provisional Relief.  Either Party may apply to the arbitrators seeking equitable, interim or provisional relief until the arbitration award is rendered or the dispute is otherwise resolved.  Either Party also may, without waiving any remedy under this Agreement, seek from any court having jurisdiction any interim or provisional relief that is necessary to protect the rights or property of that party or to preserve the subject matter of the dispute, pending the selection of the arbitrator(s) or pending the issuance of an award by the arbitrator(s).  The provisions of Sections ‎13.5.2 through ‎13.5.9 are without prejudice to the provisions of Section ‎13.5.10.
  13.5.9.  Allocation of Costs and Expenses.The arbitrator(s) shall have discretion to allocate the Parties’ costs and expenses for the arbitration (including attorneys’ fees), the fees of the arbitrator(s), and the administrative fees of arbitration between the Parties in proportion to the extent to which they prevail.  Failing such allocation, each Party shall bear its own costs and expenses and Salix and RedHill shall bear an equal share of the fees of the arbitrators and administrative fees of the arbitration.
  13.5.10.  Equitable Relief.  Each Party acknowledges and agrees that the restrictions set forth in Sections ‎2.3.2, ‎3.4 and ‎3.6 and ‎ARTICLE 8 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the other Party and that such other Party would not have entered into this Agreement in the absence of such restrictions, and that any breach or threatened breach of any provision of such Sections or Article may result in irreparable injury to such other Party for which there may be no adequate remedy at law.  In the event of a breach or threatened breach of any provision of such Sections or Article, the non-breaching Party shall be authorized and entitled to obtain from any court of competent jurisdiction injunctive relief, whether preliminary or permanent, specific performance, and an equitable accounting of all earnings, profits, and other benefits arising from such breach, which rights shall be cumulative and in addition to any other rights or remedies to which such non-breaching Party may be entitled in law or equity.  The Parties agree to waive any requirement that the other (a) post a bond or other security as a condition for obtaining any such relief, and (b) show irreparable harm, balancing of harms, consideration of the public interest, or inadequacy of monetary damages as a remedy.  Nothing in this Section ‎13.5.10 is intended, or should be construed, to limit any Party’s right to equitable relief or any other remedy for a breach of any other provision of this Agreement.

  13.11.  Further Assurance.Each Party shall duly execute and deliver, or cause to be duly executed and delivered, such further instruments and do and cause to be done such further acts and things, including the filing of such assignments, agreements, documents, and instruments, as may be necessary or as the other Party may reasonably request in connection with this Agreement or to carry out more effectively the provisions and purposes hereof, or to better assure and confirm unto such other Party its rights and remedies under this Agreement.
  13.12.  Counterparts; Facsimile Execution.This Agreement may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.  This Agreement may be executed by facsimile or electronically transmitted signatures and such signatures shall be deemed to bind each Party hereto as if they were original signatures.
