subsequent filer has promised to provide.
    (c) Limitation.--Nothing in this section shall prohibit an 
agreement resolving or settling a covered patent infringement claim in 
which the consideration granted by the NDA or BLA holder to the 
subsequent filer (or from one subsequent filer to another) as part of

following:
            (1) The right to market the covered product that is the

                    (A) any patent that is the basis of the covered

                    (B) any patent right or other statutory exclusivity

                        developer a monetary amount sufficient to deter 
                        the license holder from failing to provide 
                        eligible product developers with sufficient 
                        quantities of a covered product on commercially 
                        reasonable, market-based terms, if the court 
                        finds, by a preponderance of the evidence--
                                    (I) that the license holder delayed 
                                providing sufficient quantities of the 
                                covered product to the eligible product 
                                developer without a legitimate business 
                                justification; or
                                    (II) that the license holder failed 
                                to comply with an order issued under 
                                clause (i).
                    (B) Maximum monetary amount.--A monetary amount 
                awarded under subparagraph (A)(iii) shall not be 
                greater than the revenue that the license holder earned 
                on the covered product during the period--
                            (i) beginning on--
                                    (I) for a covered product that is 
                                not subject to a REMS with ETASU, the 
                                date that is 31 days after the date on 
                                which the license holder received the 
                                request; or
                                    (II) for a covered product that is 
                                subject to a REMS with ETASU, the date 
                                that is 31 days after the later of--
                                            (aa) the date on which the 
                                        license holder received the 
                                        request; or
                                            (bb) the date on which the

                                        of the covered product 
                                        authorization issued by the 
                                        Secretary in accordance with 
                                        paragraph (2)(B); and
                            (ii) ending on the date on which the 
                        eligible product developer received sufficient 
                        quantities of the covered product.
                    (C) Avoidance of delay.--The court may issue an 
                order under subparagraph (A)(i) before conducting 
                further proceedings that may be necessary to determine 
                whether the eligible product developer is entitled to 
                an award under clause (ii) or (iii) of subparagraph 
                (A), or the amount of any such award.
    (c) Limitation of Liability.--A license holder for a covered 
product shall not be liable for any claim under Federal, State, or 
local law arising out of the failure of an eligible product developer

during development or testing activities described in this section, 
including transportation, handling, use, or disposal of the covered 
product by the eligible product developer.

                12); and
                    (B) includes section 5 of the Federal Trade 
                Commission Act (15 U.S.C. 45) to the extent that such 
                section applies to unfair methods of competition.
            (2) Antitrust laws.--Nothing in this section shall be 
        construed to limit the operation of any provision of the

                        aspects of the elements to assure safe use for 
                        a drug that is the subject of an application 
                        under section 505(j), and the applicable listed 
                        drug.'';
            (2) in subsection (i)(1), by striking subparagraph (C) and

                    ``(C)(i) Elements to assure safe use, if required 
                under subsection (f) for the listed drug, which, 
                subject to clause (ii), for a drug that is the subject 
                of an application under section 505(j) may use--

                        listed drug under subsection (f); or

                        subsection (f).
                    ``(ii) The Secretary may require a drug that is the 
                subject of an application under section 505(j) and the 
                listed drug to use a single, shared system under 
                subsection (f), if the Secretary determines that no 
                different, comparable aspect of the elements to assure 
                safe use could satisfy the requirements of subsection 
                (f).'';
            (3) in subsection (i), by adding at the end the following:
            ``(3) Shared rems.--If the Secretary approves, in 
        accordance with paragraph (1)(C)(i)(II), a different, 
        comparable aspect of the elements to assure safe use under 
        subsection (f) for a drug that is the subject of an abbreviated 
        new drug application under section 505(j), the Secretary may 
        require that such different comparable aspect of the elements 
        to assure safe use can be used with respect to any other drug 
        that is the subject of an application under section 505(j) or 
        505(b) that references the same listed drug.''; and
            (4) by adding at the end the following:
    ``(m) Separate REMS.--When used in this section, the terms 
`different, comparable aspect of the elements to assure safe use' or 
`different, comparable approved risk evaluation and mitigation 
strategies' means a risk evaluation and mitigation strategy for a drug 
that is the subject of an application under section 505(j) that uses 
different methods or operational means than the strategy required under 
subsection (a) for the applicable listed drug, or other application 
under section 505(j) with the same such listed drug, but achieves the 
same level of safety as such strategy.''.
