are due under this Agreement at the rate of [**] percent ([**]%) per month (unless such rate is higher than the highest rate permitted by applicable law, in which case such rate will be changed to the highest rate permitted by applicable law),

 [Page 6 of 16]









 
the amounts (if any) by which the Earned Income Payments have been overpaid or underpaid. If such independent public accountant reasonably determines that such Earned Income Payment(s), after
adjustments in accordance with the Net Sales definition and Accounting Standard, have been understated by Durata, for any period, Durata shall pay the amount due for all Earned Income Payments not properly reported. If it is determined that Durata
has understated such Earned Income Payments by an amount equal to or greater than [**] percent ([**]%) in any audited period, Durata shall pay all reasonable fees and costs incurred by such independent public accountant in the course of making such
determination. The records required by this paragraph 5.3 shall be maintained and available for inspection for a period of [**] years following the Calendar Quarter to which they pertain. Any such records may be inspected no more than [**].

 5.4 Withholding Taxes. If any applicable laws or regulations require withholding of taxes on behalf of RaQualia from
any payment owed by Durata hereunder, such taxes will be deducted from such payment by Durata and will be remitted by Durata on behalf of RaQualia to the appropriate tax authority. Durata will furnish RaQualia with proof of payment of such taxes as
soon as practicable after such payment is made.

licensee or designee of a Regulatory Approval Application for the Product with the EMA (the “Reversion Term”); provided, however, that (1) the obligations under this Sections 6.1 and Sections 4, 6.2, 6.3 and

External Delay Factor arises, the period set forth in this Section 6.1 shall be automatically extended by the number of days between the date on which such External Delay Factor arises and the date on which such External Delay Factor has been
completely eliminated or resolved. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties agree and acknowledge that Durata shall be under no obligation to seek or obtain Regulatory Approval for the Product in Japan.

exclusive liability, RaQualia may regain the rights to the Product in Japan on substantially the same terms as in the Marketing Rights Agreement and the Parties shall negotiate in good faith the terms of such an agreement (including any necessary
amendments to this Agreement), and, upon RaQualia’s written request to regain such rights, Durata’s obligations under Sections 4, 6.1, 6.3 and 6.4 shall automatically terminate. 

6.3 If, at any time, Durata notifies RaQualia in writing that Durata desires to terminate its obligations and RaQualia’s rights
under Sections 4, 6.1, 6.2 and 6.4, then, as RaQualia’s sole remedy and Durata’s exclusive liability, RaQualia may regain the rights to the Product in Japan on substantially the same terms as in the Marketing Rights Agreement and the

amendments to this Agreement), and, upon RaQualia’s receipt of Durata’s notice of such termination, RaQualia’s rights and Durata’s obligations pursuant to Sections 4, 6.1, 6.2
and 6.4 shall automatically terminate. 
 6.4 Once each calendar year, starting in 2011 and prior to the filing by Durata, its

 (c) any liability relating to the Commercialization of the Product in Japan solely arising after the
Effective Date to the extent that such liability does not arise from any circumstance for which RaQualia is required to indemnify Durata or Vicuron pursuant to Section 9.1. 

9.3 Indemnification Procedure. In the event that any Person is seeking indemnification under this Section 9, such
Person (the “Indemnified Person”) shall (a) inform the Party required to provide indemnification hereunder (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the claim as soon as reasonably practicable after it receives notice of
the claim, (b) permit the Indemnifying Party to assume direction and control of the defense of the claim (including the right to settle such claim at its discretion, provided that no such settlement may be entered into without the
Indemnified Person’s consent if such settlement may adversely impact the Indemnified Person’s rights hereunder or otherwise assign liability to the Indemnified Person), and (c) cooperate as requested (at the expense of the
Indemnifying Party) in the defense of such claim. If both Parties are sued and it is reasonably likely that the Parties may have conflicting interests or if it is otherwise not advisable under applicable legal and ethical requirements for the
Indemnifying Party’s defense counsel to represent both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Persons, separate independent counsel shall be retained for each, with the costs thereof borne by the Indemnifying Party (provided, that
the Indemnifying Party need not bear the costs of more than one law firm for all Indemnified Persons collectively).

to the other Party(ies) within [**] days after the assignment; and (b) any Party may assign this Agreement in its entirety to an acquirer of all or substantially all of its capital stock or its assets relating to this Agreement;
