incurred as a result of any claims, demands, actions or other proceedings by a Third Party against
a Glenmark Indemnified Party to the extent arising out of (a) Medicis’ manufacture of Authorized
Generic pursuant to the Distribution Agreement; or (b) Medicis’ breach of any representation,
warranty or covenant under this Agreement, except to the extent that such Losses arise out of
Glenmark’s breach of any representation, warranty or covenant under this Agreement.




          8.3 Obligations. A party which intends to claim indemnification under this Section 8
(the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly notify the other party (the “Indemnifying Party”) in
writing of any claim, demand, action, or other proceeding in respect of which the Indemnified Party
intends to claim such indemnification; provided, however, that failure to provide such notice
within a reasonable period of time shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of
any of its obligations hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by
such failure. The Indemnified Party shall permit the Indemnifying Party, at its discretion, to
settle any such action, claim or other matter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying
Party shall not enter into any settlement that would adversely affect the Indemnified Party’s
rights hereunder, or impose any obligations on the Indemnified Party in addition to those set forth
herein, in order for it to exercise such rights, without the Indemnified Party’s prior written
consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. No such action, claim or other
matter shall be settled without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which shall
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate with the
Indemnifying Party and its legal representatives in the investigation and defense of any claim,
demand, action, or other proceeding covered by the indemnification obligations of this Section 8.
The Indemnified Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, to be represented in such
defense by counsel of its own selection and at its own expense.

the entire agreement and understanding of the parties and supersedes all prior written or oral
agreements or understandings with respect to the subject matter hereof. No modification of any of
the terms of this Agreement, or any amendments thereto, shall be deemed to be valid unless in
writing and signed by an authorized agent or representative of both parties hereto. No course of

shall be binding on each of Glenmark and Medicis and their respective permitted successors and
assigns.

shall be considered waived by any party hereto unless such waiver is agreed to, in writing, by
authorized agents of such party. The failure of a party to insist upon strict conformance to any

any Third Party.




          9.5 Assignment. Neither party shall assign this Agreement or any part hereof or any

subcontractor) without the written approval of the other party; provided, however, that either
party may assign this Agreement without such consent (i) to any Affiliate; and (ii) in the case of

performance of its obligations hereunder. Any purported assignment in violation of this
Section 9.5 shall be void.

hereunder and shall obtain and maintain all building and other permits and licenses required by
public authorities.

          9.8 Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement shall for any reason be
held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision hereof, and this Agreement shall
be interpreted and construed as if such term or provision, to the extent the same shall have been
held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, had never been contained herein.




          9.9 Headings, Interpretation. The headings used in this Agreement are for convenience
only and are not part of this Agreement.

which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same
instrument.




          8.12 No Prejudice. If at any time this Agreement is rendered null and void with
respect to the Territory or any portion thereof, or if either of Glenmark or Medicis cannot fulfill
its obligations with respect to this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties that neither party
will be in any way prejudiced with respect to its claims, causes of action, defenses and
counterclaims in the Litigation in such jurisdiction or otherwise and, except as provided herein or
therein, no consent judgment, order or dismissal entered by either party pursuant to this Agreement
in the Territory or portion thereof, as applicable, will be deemed an admission on the part of such
party.

          WHEREAS, Medicis has an approved New Drug Application No. 21-758 for fluocinonide cream 0.1%,
which is sold under Medicis’s trademark Vanos®.



          WHEREAS, Glenmark Generics USA, Inc. submitted Abbreviated New Drug Application No. 91-282
(“ANDA No. 91-282”) to the FDA under 21 U.S.C. § 355(j) seeking to obtain approval to commercially
manufacture and sell generic fluocinonide cream 0.1%.



          WHEREAS, in the Litigation, Medicis alleged that Glenmark infringed the claims of the ’001 and
’424 patents under 35 U.S.C. § 271(e)(2) by Glenmark Generics USA, Inc.’s submission of ANDA No.
91-282 to the FDA.



          WHEREAS, in this Litigation, Medicis requested that a permanent injunction be issued under 35
U.S.C. § 271(e) restraining or enjoining Glenmark, its officers, agents, or attorneys and
employees, and those acting in privity or in concert with them, from engaging in the commercial
manufacture, use, offer to sell, or sale within the United States, or importation into the United

the full term thereof, and from inducing or contributing to such activities.



          WHEREAS, Medicis and Glenmark have reached an agreement to finally settle the Litigation as
set forth in this Consent Judgment and Permanent Injunction as to Glenmark, and a separate License
and Settlement Agreement (“Settlement Agreement”) which is contemporaneously and separately being
executed.



          WHEREAS, final settlement of the Litigation serves the public interest by saving judicial
resources and avoiding the risks to each of Medicis and Glenmark associated with infringement.



          WHEREAS, final settlement of the Litigation will help Medicis and Glenmark avoid the
substantial uncertainty and risks involved with prolonged litigation.

          WHEREAS, final settlement of this Litigation will permit Medicis and Glenmark to save

Jersey for purposes of enforcing the Settlement Agreement.



          IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, DECREED, and ADJUDGED as follows:



          1. The Court has jurisdiction over Medicis and Glenmark and the subject matter of this
Litigation.



          2. Glenmark acknowledges Medicis’s ownership and standing to sue for infringement of the ’001

described more fully in the Settlement Agreement.



          4. Pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 271(e)(4)(A), the effective date of any Food and Drug
Administration approval of ANDA No. 91-282 will be a date not earlier than the License Trigger, as
defined in the Settlement Agreement.



          5. Glenmark acknowledges that it has infringed the ’001 patent and the ’424 patent under 35
U.S.C. § 271(e)(2) and that Medicis did not authorize the manufacture, use, sale, offer for sale,
importation and distribution of the product described in ANDA No. 91-282.



          6. Glenmark and its affiliates are permanently enjoined as of the date hereof from infringing
the ’001 patent and ’424 patent by the manufacture, use, offer to sell, sale, importation, or
distribution of any current products, or future products having the same strength and dosage form

pursuant to a license granted by Medicis.




          7. All claims and counterclaims in this Litigation are hereby dismissed without prejudice.



          8. The parties are hereby ordered to comply with the terms of the Settlement Agreement.



          9. Each party shall bear its own costs and attorneys’ fees.



          10. This Court shall retain jurisdiction over Glenmark and Medicis for the purpose of
enforcing the terms of this Consent Judgment and Permanent Injunction and over any matters related
