	"Net Revenue"
	means Revenue less:
(a)   any Direct Costs;
(b)   any applicable VAT on Revenue and/or Direct Costs;
(c)   amounts repaid or credited and allowances including cash, credit or free goods allowances, given by reason of billing errors, discounts, actually allowed or paid or accrued;
(d)   amounts refunded or credited for Licensed Products which were rejected or damaged or recalled or by reason of reasonable purchase chargebacks or rebates;
(e)   freight, postage and shipping insurance invoiced to the Third Party;
(f)   taxes, tariffs, customs duties and surcharges and other governmental charges incurred in connection with the sale, exportation or importation of Licensed Products; and
(g) government mandated and other reasonable rebates (such as those in respect of any state or federal Medicare or Medicaid or similar programs).
The transfer of Licensed Products between the Company and any of its Affiliates shall not be considered a sale for the purposes of calculating Revenue. In such cases, Revenue shall be determined on the gross invoiced price levied by the Affiliate on a Third Party, less the aforementioned deductions to the extent they are allowed, paid or accrued.
Any Licensed Product which is transferred by the Company or its Affiliates to a Third Party on less than arm’s length terms shall be deemed for the purposes of calculation of Revenue to be a sale at the list price of Licensed Product provided always that the use of Licensed Product in clinical trials shall not give rise to any deemed sale under this definition.
Transfers or dispositions of Licensed Product free of charge and in line with normal industry practice (a) for charitable purposes; (b) for non-commercial manufacturing purposes; (c) as free promotional samples of Licensed Product; or (d) for regulatory or governmental purposes shall not in each case be deemed "sales" for the purposes of calculating Revenue;

	"Revenue"
	means the pre-tax gross receipts actually received by the Company and its Affiliates from time to time in respect of the Exploitation of Exploitation Project IPRs and/or Licensed Products, whether by grant of a licence or an option thereto in respect of any Exploitation IPRs and/or Licensed Products, the assignment of the Exploitation IPR or otherwise, including, without limitation, gross receipts representing sales of the Licensed Products, cash sums, other monetary sums, royalties, licences fees, signature fees, lump sum payments or otherwise and/or any other consideration actually received by the Company and/or its Affiliates such as the provision of premises, equipment or cross licences. Where any consideration comprising Revenue is received other than in money the value of the consideration shall be determined by reference to the Fair Value of the goods, services, licence or other benefit to the Exploiting Party as at the date of receipt by the Company and/or its Affiliates. The Company shall pay to the Trust an amount in cash as required to satisfy the Trust's share of the Fair Value at the time it converts the non-cash consideration into cash. If the Parties are unable to agree on the Fair Value such dispute shall be referred to an expert under Clause 20 of the Funding Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, Revenues shall include any award of damages received by the Company and/or its Affiliates in respect of enforcement of the Exploitation IPRs, less the costs of such action. For the further avoidance of doubt, Revenue shall not include any equity investment made in the Company by a Third Party or money paid to the Company by way of a grant.
