                    including but not limited to the documentation and technical

               estimated  costs of the  development  as per  Exhibit  "A" hereto
               incurred  without such Party's prior written  consent.  It is the
               belief of the Parties  that only one (1)  pivotal  Bioequivalence
               Study will be  required to obtain the  approval  of both  Product
               strengths because they will be dose-proportional.

         B.     Upon  FDA  approval  of the  ANDA  for the  Product  under  this
                Agreement,  if any  validation  batch of Product is not saleable
                due to short dating, Elite shall be entitled to payment from [ *
                ], for the costs of such validation  batches,  including but not
                limited to all raw materials  costs,  as part of its Development
                Costs.

         C.     Upon  FDA  approval  of the  ANDA  for the  Product  under  this
                Agreement,  if any  validation  batch of Product is not saleable
                due to failure of such batch to meet Product  specifications  of
                the ANDA (other  than  relating  to expiry  dating),  then Elite
                shall be responsible for the costs of such  validation  batches,
                including but not limited to all raw materials costs.

         D.     [ * ] shall  pay Elite [ * ]  percent  ([ * ]%) of the  Transfer
                Price for a given shipment of Product within thirty (30) days of
                the date of the invoice.

          B.   If Elite and/or [ * ] develops such intellectual  property,  they
               shall be required  to license  the use of such "trade  secret" or

PARTIES

7.1.     ORDERING AND DELIVERY

<PAGE>

          A.   Elite will deliver to [ * ] or shall cause the  finished  Product
               to be delivered  to [ * ] in bottles  packed in cases and stacked
               on pallets as specified by [ * ] under Section  7.1(c) below. [ *
               ] shall order  Product in multiples of Elite's batch size for the
               Product.

          B.   [ * ] will provide to Elite on a monthly  basis a forecast of its
               expected  supply needs for the Product for the then following six
               (6) months,  along with requested shipment dates for the Product.
               Each monthly forecast shall be deemed to be a firm purchase order
               as to the  Product,  binding  upon [ * ] and  subject  to Elite's
               acceptance or rejection,  in whole or in part,  scheduled for the
               first three (3) months of the forecast, and non-binding as to the
               last  three (3)  months of the  forecast.  If a monthly  forecast
               increases  the monthly  quantity of Product by more than 25% over
               the  quantity  scheduled  in  the  immediately   preceding  month
               forecast, Elite shall not be required to manufacture and ship the
               quantity of Product that exceeds a 25%  increase.  At the time of
               each quarterly forecast, the Parties will agree on shipment dates
               for the Product  scheduled  for the first three (3) months of the

               will  make  shipments,  or  cause  all  shipments  to  occur,  in
               accordance with the agreed dates. If a monthly forecast increases
               the quantity of any Product  over the  quantity  scheduled in the
               immediately preceding monthly forecast, the Parties will agree on
               an equitable adjustment in the shipment dates.

          C.   In  addition  to monthly  forecasts,  at least  thirty  (30) days
               before the shipment date agreed upon for any Product, [ * ] shall
               provide Elite with specific written  instructions  concerning the
               packaging,  labeling (unless under a private label other than [ *
               ],  which will  require  60 days prior  notice to Elite and [ * ]
               shall ensure that Elite has sufficient  inventory of such private
               labels at least thirty days before the desired  shipment  date of

               shipping and delivery  instructions.  Elite shall pay the cost to
               ship the bulk packaged Product to a third party  labeler/packager
               and [ * ] shall pay the  shipping  cost of the  finished  Product
               shipped from a pre-approved cGMP facility under Section 4.3, to [
               * ]'  desired  location.  Each  shipment  shall be made to arrive
               within five (5) days of the shipping date.  Upon shipment,  Elite
               shall  invoice [ * ] in writing  for the  Transfer  Price.  [ * ]
               shall pay Elite the Transfer Price within thirty (30) days of the
               date of the invoice as in accordance with Section  5.2(c).  Elite
               shall be deemed to have  delivered  the Product to [ * ] when the
               Product has been  tendered to the shipper,  and title and risk of
               loss of the  Product  shall be  deemed to pass to [ * ] upon such
               tender.

         conform to the  specifications  of the ANDA or is not  manufactured  in
         accordance with current good manufacturing  practices, and such failure
         is due to acts or omissions  of Elite,  then [ * ] shall have the right
         to reject such  nonconforming  shipment of Product or the

         Recall  shall  be  allocated  [ * ]  percent  ([ * ]%)  to [ * ], [ * ]
         percent ([ * ]%) to Elite.

               Property  infringes  upon a third party's  intellectual  property

          Agreement cannot be resolved through

                                       13
<PAGE>

          negotiation  between the Parties,  the Parties  hereto agree to submit
          the  dispute  to  mediation  and  will  jointly   appoint  a  mutually
          acceptable  mediator,  seeking  assistance in such regard from the CPR
          Institute of Dispute  Resolution  (366 Madison  Avenue,  New York,  NY
          10017,  telephone number  212-949-6490) if they are unable to promptly
          agree upon such  appointment.  Mediation must commence  within fifteen
          (15)  days  after  either  Party  hereto  serves a  written  notice of
          mediation upon the other and the Parties hereto shall bear equally the
          cost of the mediation.  The Parties agree to participate in good faith
          in the  mediation  and related  negotiations  for a period of five [5]
          days.  If the  Parties are not  successful  in  resolving  the dispute
          through  mediation,  the parties may then  arbitrate.  This  Agreement
          shall be governed by and construed in accordance  with the laws of the
          State of [ * ] without regard to conflicts of laws provisions.

8.2.     ARBITRATION:  In the event a dispute  cannot be resolved in  accordance
         with  Section  8.1,  all  controversies  or  claims  arising  out of or
         relating to this Agreement, or of a breach of it, shall be submitted to
         binding  arbitration  pursuant  to Section  682.01 et seq, of the [ * ]
         Statutes ([ * ] Arbitration  Code) as amended from time to time and not
         under the rules of the American Arbitration Association.

         A.     The  arbitration  shall be  before  one (1)  arbitrator.  If the
                Parties fail to agree on the sole arbitrator within fifteen (15)
                days of  written  notice  from  either  Party of a dispute to be
                submitted  to  arbitration,  either  Party may apply to have the
                arbitrator  appointed  by  a  court  of  competent  jurisdiction
                pursuant  to Section  682.04,  [ * ] Statutes.  All  arbitration
                proceedings shall be held in [ * ].

         B.     The  arbitration  hearing shall be held within  forty-five  (45)
                days from the date of the arbitrator's  acceptance of his or her
                duties,  unless otherwise agreed by all Parties,  or extended by
                the arbitrator on good cause shown.

         C.     The fees and costs of the  arbitration  shall be equally divided
                so that each Party shall pay one third.  If a Party fails to pay
                the fees of the  arbitrator as requested  from time to time, the
                other Party may  advance any such fees,  which shall be due with
                interest at the  maximum  legal rate  permitted  by law from the
                date  of  advancement,  and  shall  be  part  of  the  award  in
                arbitration.

         D.     The Parties agree that the Arbitrator shall be granted the power
                to award reasonable attorneys' to the prevailing Party.

         E.     Any award  rendered  in the  arbitration  shall be  binding  and
                conclusive upon the Parties and shall not be subject to retrying
                or appeal before any court.  The arbitrator shall have the right
                to decree specific performance. Judgment upon the award rendered
                in  the   arbitration   may  be  entered  in  any  court  having
                jurisdiction.

ARTICLE IX:  TERM AND TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT

This Agreement shall continue in effect as of the Effective Date for a period of
ten (10) years from the first  shipment of commercial  production  quantities of
the Product under this Agreement (the "Initial  Term").  After the Initial Term,
this Agreement  shall continue for successive  terms of five (5) years each (the
"Additional Terms"), unless either [ * ] or Elite provides written notice to the
other Party at least  forty-five  (45) days  before the end of the  then-current
Term that such Party desires

                                       14
<PAGE>

to  terminate  this  Agreement  (the  Additional  Terms and Initial  Terms being
referred to herein  collectively as the "Term").  Notwithstanding the foregoing,
this Agreement may be terminated in accordance with the following provisions:

9.1.     TERMINATION WITHOUT CAUSE DURING DEVELOPMENT

         Before the FDA approves the ANDA with respect to the Product,  if [ * ]
         wishes to terminate for any reason:

         A.     [ * ] shall give thirty (30) days notice in writing to [ * ] and
                Elite.

         B.     All of [ * ]' rights to the  Product  and the ANDA shall  revert
                back to [ * ] upon  repayment  to [ * ] by [ * ] of the one time
                Product  development fee of $[ * ]. If [ * ] does not pay the $[
                * ] to [ * ] within  thirty  (30) days of [ * ]'  notice,  Elite
                shall have the right to all of [ * ]' rights upon  payment of $[
                * ] to [ * ].

         C.     [ * ]  shall  pay  [  *  ]  and  Elite  its  prorated  share  of
                Development Costs through the date of notice and as set forth on
                Exhibit "A".

9.2. TERMINATION WITHOUT CAUSE AFTER DEVELOPMENT.

          After  eighteen  (18) months of launch of the Product into the market,
          either [ * ] or Elite may terminate  this Agreement on six (6) months'
          written  notice to the other if the  Profit  Share to the  terminating
          party for the twelve (12) month period preceding the date of notice of
          termination is less than [ * ]($[ * ]). If the Agreement is terminated
          under  this  section  by [ * ], [ * ]  agrees  to pay for all  Product
          ordered by it.

          If the  Agreement  is  terminated  under this  section by [ * ], [ * ]
          shall have the option to transfer  and sell the ANDA and its rights to
          the  Product to [ * ] and [ * ] shall take such  actions,  and execute
          and deliver such documents,  as [ * ] may from time to time reasonably
          request to effectuate the transfer of the ANDA to [ * ] hereunder.  If
          [ * ] does not accept rights and does not request transfer of the ANDA
          in writing  within thirty (30) days of the notice,  Elite may elect to
          accept the  transfer  of the ANDA its rights to the  Product and [ * ]
          shall take such actions,  and execute and deliver such  documents,  as
          Elite may from  time to time  reasonably  request  to  effectuate  the
          transfer of the ANDA to Elite  hereunder.  The  accepting  party shall
          have all of [ * ]' rights and obligations for the Product.

          If the  Agreement is  terminated  under this  section by Elite,  Elite
          agrees, at the request of [ * ], to transfer the Product manufacturing
          to another  facility and shall  provide all  information  necessary to
          transfer  the  Product  manufacturing  to  a  manufacturing   facility
          designated by [ * ] within sixty (60) days of such termination notice.
          Any such  termination by Elite shall be effective upon FDA approval of
          the new manufacturing  facility,  or if earlier,  on nine months' from
          the date of Elite's notice of termination.

9.3. TERMINATION FOR CAUSE

          This Agreement may be terminated by either Elite or [ * ] in the event
          of a material  breach or default by a Party which is not cured  within
          thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice  detailing the breach
          or default.

                                       15

9.4.     RIGHTS UPON TERMINATION

         Subject  to  Sections  9.1(B)  and  9.2,  or  upon  termination  of the
         Agreement due to a material  breach by [ * ], upon the  termination  or
         expiration  of  this  Agreement,  [ * ]  shall  continue  to  have  the
         ownership rights to the ANDA,  including the right to license,  sell or
         transfer the ANDA.

9.5      ACTS OF INSOLVENCY

         Either  Elite or [ * ] may  terminate  this  Agreement  for  default by
         written  notice if the other Party becomes  insolvent,  makes a general
         assignment for the benefit of creditors,  files a voluntary petition of
         bankruptcy,  suffers or permits the  appointment  of a receiver for its
         business  assets,  or  becomes  subject  to any  proceeding  under  any
         bankruptcy or insolvency law, whether domestic or foreign, or has wound
         up or  liquidated,  voluntarily  or  otherwise.  A Party  hereto  shall
         immediately  notify  the other  Party  upon an  occurrence  of any such
         event.

9.6      FORCE MAJEURE

         Either Party, Elite or [ * ] or [ * ], shall be excused from failure to
         perform any of its obligations  hereunder to the extent such failure is
         caused by acts of God, fires, floods, war, sabotage,  unavailability of
         raw  materials,  governmental  laws  or  regulations,  labor  disputes,
         strikes or similar  occurrences,  where such Party is without  fault or
         negligence  (a  "Force  Majeure  Event"),  provided  such  Party  gives
         immediate  notice of such Force Majeure  Event to the other Party,  and
         exercises due diligence to remove the cause as soon as practicable.  As
         applicable due to natural disaster,  Elite will make reasonable efforts
         to assist [ * ] to find/establish  another approved cGMP  manufacturing
         site.

         respective  Party's rights and  obligations  hereunder.  Subject to the
         foregoing,  this  Agreement  shall be  binding  upon  and  inure to the
         benefit of the Parties  hereto,  and their  respective  successors  and
         assigns.

10.2.    NO WAIVER

         No delay or omission by any Party hereto to exercise any right of power
         occurring  upon any  noncompliance  or  default  by the other  Party or
         Parties with respect to any of the terms of this Agreement shall impair
         any  such  right or power or be  construed  to be a waiver  thereof.  A
         waiver  by  any  of  the  Parties  hereto  of  any  of  the  covenants,
         conditions,  or  agreements  to be  performed by the other shall not be
         construed  to be a  waiver  of any  succeeding  breach  thereof  of any
         covenant,  condition,  or agreement  herein  contained.  Unless  stated
         otherwise,  all  remedies  provided  for in  this  Agreement  shall  be
         cumulative  and in  addition  to and not in lieu of any other  remedies
         available to any Party at law, in equity, or otherwise.

         relating to the subject  matter  hereto are hereby  superceded  by this
         Agreement,  except of the  Confidentiality  Agreement dated December 1,
         2004, among [ * ], [ * ], and Elite, which shall continue in full force
         and effect.  No modification or waiver of any of the provisions of this
         Agreement shall be valid unless it is provided in writing and signed by
         [ * ] and Elite and, if and to the extent such  modification  or waiver
         modifies [ * ]'s rights or obligations, by [ * ], too.

10.4.    GOVERNING LAW

         This  Agreement  shall be  governed  by the laws of the  State of [ * ]
         United States of America.

10.5.    NOTICES

         All  communications  required  or  permitted  hereunder,  shall  be  in
         writing,  and shall be effective  upon  delivery to the above  provided
         addresses.

10.6.    AUTHORITY

         Each person signing on behalf of a Party to this Agreement below herein
         represents  and warrants  that it has the legal right and  authority to
         enter  into  this  Agreement,  and to  fully  perform  its  obligations
         hereunder,  and that  none has made nor will  make any  commitments  in
         conflict with its respective obligations hereunder.

10.7.    HEADINGS

         The headings  and  subheadings  utilized  herein are not a part of this
         Agreement,  but are merely  guides or labels to assist in locating  and
         reading the provisions hereof.

10.8.    SURVIVAL

         The following provisions in this Agreement shall survive termination or
         expiration  of this  Agreement  for any reason:  Article I,  Article II
         Section 2.2, Article III,  Sections 7.2, 7.3(A),  (B) (C) (D), (E), (F)
         and (G), 7.5, and 7.7, Article VIII, Article IX, and Article X

10.9     SEVERABILITY

         It is not the  intention  of any Party  hereto to  violate  any  public
         policy  statutory  or  common  laws,  rules,  regulations,  treaty,  or
         decisions of any  government  agency or  executive  body thereof of any
         country or community or  association  of countries.  Should one or more
         provisions of this Agreement be or become invalid or  unenforceable  by
         reason of such a violation,  then the Parties hereto shall  substitute,
         by mutual consent, valid provisions for such invalid provisions,  which
         valid  provisions in their economic effect come so close to the invalid
         provisions  that it can be  reasonably  assumed that the Parties  would
         have contracted this Agreement with those new provisions.  In case such
         provisions cannot be found, the invalidity of one or more provisions of
         the  Agreement  shall not affect the  validity  for the  Agreement as a
         whole,  unless the invalid provisions are of such essential  importance
         for this Agreement that it is to be reasonably assumed that the Parties
         would  not  have   contracted   this  Agreement   without  the  invalid
         provisions.
