in not retaining PwC by reason of any action or inaction of PwC), (y) ICN no
longer uses PwC to audit its consolidated financial statements or (z) PwC

            (iv) As soon as practicable, and in any event within 35 days after
the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters in each fiscal year of

shall deliver to ICN drafts of (A) the consolidated financial statements of
Ribapharm (and notes thereto) for such periods and for the period from the
beginning of the current fiscal year to the end of such quarter, setting forth
in each case in comparative form for each such fiscal quarter of Ribapharm the

of Ribapharm's consolidated financial condition and results of operations for
such fiscal period, including, without limitation, an explanation of any
material adverse change from the immediately preceding fiscal quarter, all in
reasonable detail and prepared in accordance with Item 303(b) of Regulation S-K.

ICN's independent certified public accountants ("ICN's

                                       12
<PAGE>
Auditors") date their opinion on ICN's audited annual financial statements (the
"ICN Annual Statements"), and to enable ICN to meet its timetable for the
printing, filing and public dissemination of the ICN Annual Statements. To this
end, Ribapharm shall deliver to ICN as soon as practicable, and in any event
within 75 days after the end of each fiscal year of Ribapharm (but in no event
later than ten days before Ribapharm intends to file its Annual Financial
Statements (as defined below) with the SEC), (A) drafts of the consolidated
financial statements of Ribapharm (and notes thereto) for such year, setting
forth in each case in comparative form the consolidated figures (and notes
thereto) for the previous fiscal year and all in reasonable detail and prepared

management of Ribapharm's consolidated financial condition and results of
operations for such year, including, without limitation, an explanation of any

shall deliver to ICN the final form of the Annual Financial Statements certified
by the chief financial officer of Ribapharm as presenting fairly, in all
material respects, the financial condition and results of operations of
Ribapharm and its Subsidiaries; provided that ICN and Ribapharm financial
representatives shall actively consult with each other regarding any changes
(whether or not substantive) which Ribapharm may consider making to its Annual
Financial Statements and related disclosures prior to the actual filing of its
Annual Report on Form 10-K with the SEC. The Annual Financial Statements shall
also be accompanied by an opinion thereon by Ribapharm's independent certified
public accountants.

            (vi) Ribapharm shall deliver to ICN all Quarterly and Annual
Financial Statements of each Ribapharm Affiliate (which (a) Ribapharm
consolidates for financial accounting purposes and (b) is itself required to
file financial statements with the SEC or otherwise make such financial

the same manner and detail and on the same time schedule as those financial
statements of Ribapharm required to be delivered to ICN pursuant to this Section
5.1.

            (vii) Ribapharm shall, and shall cause each Ribapharm Affiliate
which files information with the SEC, to deliver to ICN: (A) as soon as the same

                                       13
<PAGE>
are referred to herein as "Ribapharm Public Filings"), and (B) as soon as
practicable, but in no event later than one Business Day prior to the date the
same are printed, sent or filed, whichever is earliest, final copies of all such
Ribapharm Public Filings; provided that Ribapharm may continue to revise such
Ribapharm Public Filings prior to the filing thereof in order to make
corrections and changes which corrections and changes shall be delivered by
Ribapharm to ICN as soon as practicable; and, provided, further, that ICN and
Ribapharm financial representatives shall actively consult with each other
regarding any changes (whether or not substantive) which Ribapharm may consider
making to any of its Ribapharm Public Filings and related disclosures prior to
any anticipated filing with the SEC.

            (viii) With reasonable promptness, Ribapharm shall deliver to ICN
such additional financial and other information and data with respect to
Ribapharm and its Subsidiaries and their business, properties, financial
positions, results of operations and prospects as from time to time may be
reasonably requested by ICN.

            (ix) ICN agrees to provide to Ribapharm all information relating to
ICN or any ICN Affiliate that Ribapharm reasonably requests in connection with
any Ribapharm Public Filings or that, in the judgment of Ribapharm's legal
staff, is required to be disclosed or incorporated by reference therein under
any law, rule or regulation. ICN agrees that such information shall be provided
by ICN in a timely manner on the dates reasonably requested by Ribapharm (which
may be earlier than the dates on which ICN otherwise would be required hereunder
to have such information available) to enable Ribapharm to prepare, print and
release all Ribapharm Public Filings on such dates as Ribapharm shall determine.
If and to the extent reasonably requested by Ribapharm, ICN agrees that it shall
diligently and promptly review all drafts of such Ribapharm Public Filings and
prepare in a diligent and timely fashion any portion of such Ribapharm Public
Filing pertaining to ICN or any ICN Affiliate.

            (x) Ribapharm shall authorize Ribapharm's Auditors to make available
to ICN's Auditors both the personnel who performed or are performing the annual
audit of Ribapharm and work papers related to the annual audit of Ribapharm, in
all cases within a reasonable time prior to the date of Ribapharm's Auditors'
opinion on Ribapharm's audited financial statements, so that ICN's Auditors are
able to perform the procedures they consider necessary to take responsibility
for the work of Ribapharm's Auditors as it relates to ICN's Auditors' report on
ICN's statements, all within sufficient time to enable ICN to meet its timetable
for the printing, filing and public dissemination of the ICN Annual Statements.

            (xi) Ribapharm shall provide ICN's internal auditors access to
Ribapharm's and its Subsidiaries, books and records so that ICN may conduct
reasonable audits relating to the financial statements provided by Ribapharm
pursuant hereto as well as to the internal accounting controls and operations of
Ribapharm and its Subsidiaries.

            (xii) Ribapharm shall give ICN as much prior notice as reasonably
practical of any proposed determination of, or any significant changes in, its
accounting estimates or accounting principles from those in effect on the date
hereof. Ribapharm will consult with ICN and, if

                                       14
<PAGE>
requested by ICN, Ribapharm will consult with ICN's independent public
accountants with respect thereto.

            (xiii) Ribapharm shall, and shall cause each Ribapharm Affiliate to,
maintain a system of internal accounting controls that will provide reasonable
assurance that (A) Ribapharm's and such Ribapharm Affiliate's books, records and
accounts fairly reflect all transactions and dispositions of assets and (B) the
specific objectives of accounting control are achieved.

            (xiv) Ribapharm shall cooperate fully, and cause its accountants to
cooperate, with ICN to the extent reasonably requested by ICN in the preparation
of ICN's public earnings releases, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Annual
Reports to Shareholders, Annual Reports on Form 10-K, any Current Reports on
Form 8-K and any other proxy, information and registration statements, reports,
notices, prospectuses and any other filings made by ICN with the SEC, any
national securities exchange or otherwise made publicly available (collectively,
"ICN Public Filings"). Ribapharm agrees to provide to ICN all information
relating to Ribapharm or any Ribapharm Affiliate that ICN reasonably requests in
connection with any ICN Public Filings or that, in the judgment of ICN's legal
staff, is required to be disclosed or incorporated by reference therein under
any law, rule or regulation. Such information shall be provided by Ribapharm in
a timely manner on the dates reasonably requested by ICN (which may be earlier
than the dates on which Ribapharm otherwise would be required hereunder to have
such information available) to enable ICN to prepare, print and release all ICN
Public Filings on such dates as ICN shall determine. Ribapharm shall cause its
accountants to consent to any reference to them as experts in any ICN Public
Filings required under any law, rule or regulation. If and to the extent
reasonably requested by ICN, Ribapharm shall diligently and promptly review all
drafts of such ICN Public Filings and prepare in a diligent and timely fashion
any portion of such ICN Public Filing pertaining to Ribapharm or any Ribapharm
Affiliate. Prior to any printing or public release of any ICN Public Filing, an
appropriate executive officer of Ribapharm shall, if requested by ICN, certify
that the information relating to Ribapharm, any Ribapharm Affiliate or the
Ribapharm Business in such ICN Public Filing is accurate, true and correct in
all material respects. Unless required by law, rule or regulation, Ribapharm
shall not publicly release any financial or other information which conflicts
with the information with respect to Ribapharm, any Ribapharm Affiliate or the
Ribapharm Business that is included in any ICN Public Filing without ICN's prior
written consent. Prior to the release or filing thereof, ICN shall provide
Ribapharm with a draft of any portion of a ICN Public Filing containing
information relating to Ribapharm, any Ribapharm Affiliate or the Ribapharm
Business and shall give Ribapharm an opportunity to review such information and
comment thereon; provided that ICN shall determine in its sole discretion the
final form and content of all ICN Public Filings.

            (xv) ICN agrees that it shall cooperate fully, and cause its
accountants to cooperate fully, with Ribapharm to the extent reasonably
requested by Ribapharm in the preparation of any Ribapharm Public Filings.

            (xvi) Prior to the release or filing thereof, Ribapharm shall
provide ICN with a draft of any portion of a Ribapharm Public Filing containing
information relating to ICN or any

                                       15
<PAGE>
ICN Affiliate and shall give ICN an opportunity to review such information and
comment thereon; provided that Ribapharm shall determine in its sole discretion
the final form and content of all Ribapharm Public Filings.

Nothing in this Section 5.1 shall require Ribapharm to violate any agreement
with any of its customers regarding the confidentiality of commercially
sensitive information relating to that customer or its business; provided that
in the event that Ribapharm would otherwise be required under this Section 5.1,
but for such agreement, to disclose any such information, Ribapharm shall use
all commercially reasonable efforts to seek to obtain such customer's consent to
the disclosure of such information.

      5.2. OTHER COVENANTS.

           (a) Ribapharm and ICN each hereby reaffirm the terms of the letter
agreement between them, dated July 18, 2001.

           (b) Ribapharm hereby covenants and agrees that, for so long as ICN
beneficially owns at least 10% of the outstanding shares of Ribapharm Common

directly or indirectly, any action, including making or failing to make any

indirectly, of restricting or limiting the ability of ICN to freely sell,
transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of shares of Ribapharm Common
Stock or would restrict or limit the rights of any transferee of ICN as a holder
of Ribapharm Common Stock. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
Ribapharm shall not, without the prior written consent of ICN (which it may
withhold in its sole and absolute discretion), take any action, or take any
action to recommend to its stockholders any action, which would among other
things, limit the legal rights of, or deny any benefit to, ICN as a Ribapharm
stockholder in a manner not applicable to Ribapharm stockholders generally.

           (c) Ribapharm hereby covenants and agrees that, following the
Distribution, Ribapharm will be soley responsible for issuing any share of
Ribapharm Common Stock due upon coversion of ICN's 6 1/2% convertible

earlier of (i)                                           and (ii) completion
of the Distribution, Ribapharm shall not, without the prior written consent of
ICN (which it may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion), (A) issue any
shares of Ribapharm Capital Stock if, after giving effect to such issuances, ICN
would cease to own stock possessing at least 80% of the total combined voting
power of all classes of Ribapharm Capital Stock entitled to vote and at least
80% of the total number of shares of each class of outstanding non-voting
Ribapharm Capital Stock or (B) take, or cause to be taken, any action, or do, or
cause to be done, anything which will prevent the Distribution from qualifying,
or will cause the Distribution to fail to qualify, as a tax-free event under
Section 355(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. ICN and Ribapharm agree that ICN
may, apply to any court of law or equity of competent jurisdiction (without
posting any bond or deposit) for specific performance and/or other injunctive
relief to prevent any breach of this Section 5.3. This Section 5.3 shall
terminate, become null and void and have no further force and effect if ICN
takes any action that has the effect that ICN ceases to beneficially own at
least 80% of the outstanding shares of Ribapharm Capital Stock (excluding
Qualified Options and `Convertibles) and at least 80% of the number of shares of
each class of outstanding non-voting Ribapharm Capital Stock.

be governed by the terms of such contract, agreement or understanding.

      6.4. PROCEDURE FOR INDEMNIFICATION INVOLVING THIRD-PARTY CLAIMS.

      (a) Notice of Claim. If any Indemnitee receives notice of the assertion of
any Third-Party Claim with respect to which an Indemnifying Party is obligated
under this Agreement to provide indemnification, such Indemnitee shall give such
Indemnifying Party notice thereof (together with a copy of such Third-Party
Claim, process or other legal pleading) promptly after becoming aware of such
Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that the failure of any Indemnitee to give
notice as provided in this Section shall not relieve any Indemnifying Party of
its obligations under this Section 6, except to the extent that such
Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. Such
notice shall describe such Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail.

      (b) Obligation of Indemnifying Party. An Indemnifying Party, at such
Indemnifying Party's own expense and through counsel chosen by such Indemnifying
Party (which counsel shall be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee), may
elect to defend any Third-Party Claim. If an Indemnifying Party elects to defend
a Third-Party Claim, then, within ten Business Days after receiving notice of
such Third-Party Claim (or sooner, if the nature of such Third-Party Claim so
requires), such Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnitee of its intent to
do so, and such Indemnitee shall cooperate in the defense of such Third-Party
Claim. Such Indemnifying Party shall pay such Indemnitee's reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with such cooperation. Such
Indemnifying Party shall keep the Indemnitee reasonably informed as to the
status of the defense of such Third-Party Claim. After notice from an
Indemnifying Party to an Indemnitee of its election to assume the defense of a
Third-Party Claim, such Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to such
Indemnitee under this Section 6 for any legal or other expenses subsequently
incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with the defense thereof other than
those expenses referred to in the preceding sentence; provided, however, that
such Indemnitee shall have the right to employ one law firm as counsel, together
with a separate local law firm in each applicable jurisdiction ("Separate
Counsel"), to represent such Indemnitee in any action or group

                                       18
<PAGE>
of related actions (which firm or firms shall be reasonably acceptable to the
Indemnifying Party) if, in such Indemnitee's reasonable judgment at any time,
either a conflict of interest between such Indemnitee and such Indemnifying
Party exists in respect of such claim, or there may be defenses available to
such Indemnitee which are different from or in addition to those available to
such Indemnifying Party and the representation of both parties by the same
counsel would be inappropriate, and in that event the reasonable fees and
expenses of such Separate Counsel shall be paid by such Indemnifying Party (it
being understood, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for
the expenses of more than one Separate Counsel (excluding local counsel) with
respect to any Third-Party Claim (even if against multiple Indemnitees)). If an
Indemnifying Party elects not to defend against a Third-Party Claim, or fails to
notify an Indemnitee of its election as provided in this Section 6.4 within the
period of ten Business Days described above, the Indemnitee may defend,
compromise, and settle such Third-Party Claim and shall be entitled to
indemnification hereunder (to the extent permitted hereunder) on an as incurred
basis; provided, however, that no such Indemnitee may compromise or settle any
such Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying
Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the
prior written consent of the Indemnitee, (i) settle or compromise any
Third-Party Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment which does not include
as an unconditional term thereof the delivery by the claimant or plaintiff to
the Indemnitee of a written release from all liability in respect of such
Third-Party Claim or (ii) settle or compromise any Third-Party Claim in any
manner that would be reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the
Indemnitee.

      (c) Joint Defense of Certain Claims. Notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 6.4(b), ICN and Ribapharm shall jointly control the defense of, and
cooperate with each other with respect to defending, any Third-Party Claim with
respect to which each party is claiming that it is entitled to indemnification
under Section 6.1 or 6.2. If either ICN or Ribapharm fails to defend jointly any
such Third-Party Claim, the other party shall solely defend such Third-Party
Claim and the party failing to defend jointly shall use all commercially
reasonable efforts to cooperate with the other party in its defense of such
Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that neither party may compromise or
settle any such Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the other
party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. All costs
and expenses of either party in connection with, and during the course of, the
joint control of the defense of any such Third-Party Claim shall be initially
paid by the party that incurs such costs and expenses. Such costs and expenses
shall be reallocated and reimbursed in accordance with the respective
indemnification obligations of the parties on a periodic basis (but in no event
later than the conclusion of the defense of such Third-Party Claim).

      6.5. PROCEDURE FOR INDEMNIFICATION NOT INVOLVING THIRD-PARTY CLAIMS. If
any Indemnitee desires to assert against an Indemnifying Party any claim for
indemnification under this Section 6 other than a Third-Party Claim (a "Claim"),
the Indemnitee shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party notice of its demand for
satisfaction of such Claim (a "Request"), specifying in reasonable detail the
amount of such Claim and the basis for asserting such Claim. Within 30 days
after the Indemnifying Party has been given a Request, the Indemnifying Party
shall either (i) satisfy the Claim requested to be satisfied in such Request by

                                       19
<PAGE>
delivering to the Indemnitee payment by wire transfer or a certified or bank
cashier's check payable to the Indemnified Party in immediately available funds
in an amount equal to the amount of such Claim, or (ii) notify the Indemnitee
that the Indemnifying Party contests such Claim by delivering to the Indemnitee
a Dispute Notice, stating that the Indemnifying Party objects to such Claim and
specifying in reasonable detail the basis for contesting such Claim. Any dispute
described in clause (ii) of this Section 6.5 shall be subject to the provisions
of Section 7.1.

      6.6. EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES. Except for the right to pursue equitable
remedies, the remedies provided in this Section 6 shall be deemed the sole and
exclusive remedies of the parties with respect to the subject matters of the

shall any single or partial exercise of any right or privilege preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or
privilege under this Agreement. No failure by either party to take any action or

other rights existing in its favor. Each of ICN and Ribapharm acknowledges and
agrees that under certain circumstances the breach by ICN or any of its
Affiliates or Ribapharm or any of its Affiliates of a term or provision of this
Agreement will materially and irreparably harm the other party, that money
damages will accordingly not be an adequate remedy for such breach and that the
non-defaulting party, in its sole discretion and in addition to its rights under
this Agreement and any other remedies it may have at law or in equity, may apply
to any court of law or equity of competent jurisdiction (without posting any
bond or deposit) for specific performance and/or other injunctive relief in
order to enforce or prevent any breach of the provisions of this Agreement.

cause any Service it is required to provide hereunder to be provided by any
third party that is providing, or may from time to time provide, the same or
similar services for ICN (an "Outsourced Service"). ICN shall remain
responsible, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, for performance of
any Service it causes to be so provided.

      Section 2.04. IMPRACTICABILITY AND FORCE MAJEURE. ICN shall not be
required to provide any Service to the extent the performance of such Service
becomes impracticable as a result of a cause or causes outside the control of
ICN or to the extent the provision of such Service would require ICN to violate
any applicable laws, rules or regulations. ICN shall have no obligation to
perform or cause the Services to be performed if its failure to do so is caused
by or results from any act of God, governmental action, natural disaster,
strike, failure of essential equipment or any other cause or circumstance beyond
the control of ICN or, if applicable, third party providers of services to ICN.
ICN will notify Ribapharm of any such event affecting its Services to Ribapharm.
ICN agrees that following any such event, Ribapharm shall have no obligation to
pay for the Services affected thereby and ICN will use its reasonable best
efforts to restore such Services.

                                   ARTICLE III
                                 SERVICE CHARGES

      Section 3.01. SERVICE CHARGES. (a) The charge for each Service provided
hereunder directly by Ribapharm or ICN shall be equal to all costs reasonably
incurred by Ribapharm or ICN in providing such Service. Such costs shall
include, but are not limited to, appropriate allocation of overhead costs,
personnel costs (e.g., compensation and fringe benefits), travel, and office
costs associated with functions performing such Services.

      (b) The charge for each Outsourced Service provided to Ribapharm hereunder
shall be equal to all costs reasonably incurred by ICN in providing such
Outsourced Service, including, without limitation, any reasonable third-party
costs and expenses incurred by ICN on behalf of Ribapharm. If ICN incurs
third-party costs or expenses on behalf of Ribapharm as well as any ICN Entity,
ICN will allocate any such costs or expenses in good faith between Ribapharm and
the various ICN Entities on behalf of which such costs or expenses were
incurred. ICN shall apply usual and accepted accounting conventions in making
such allocations and ICN or its agents shall keep and maintain such books and
records as may be reasonably necessary to make such allocations. ICN shall make
copies of such books and records available to Ribapharm upon request and with
reasonable notice.

      (c) The parties intend that the Service charges referred to in paragraphs
(a) and (b) above (collectively, the "Service Charges") will allow ICN to
recover the fully allocated costs of providing the Services and Outsourced
Services hereunder plus all out-of-pocket, third-party costs, charges and
expenses, but without any profit to ICN.

      Section 3.02. INVOICING AND SETTLEMENT OF COSTS. (a) The party providing
each Service shall invoice the party receiving the Service for all Service
Charges for each calendar month within thirty (30) days following the end of
such month, provided that any failure to provide an invoice within such time
period shall not relieve the party receiving such Service of its obligation to
pay an invoice received after such date. All invoices shall include a reasonably
detailed description of the Services performed.

      (b) Subject to Section 3.02(c) below, the party receiving such Service
shall pay within 30 days following its receipt of any invoice pursuant to
paragraph (a), without set-off, all amounts invoiced during the preceding
calendar month. If the party receiving such Service fails to pay any monthly
payment within 60 days following its receipt of any invoice pursuant to
paragraph (a), such party shall pay, in addition to the amount indicated in such
invoice, a rate of interest equal to the LIBOR Rate plus 200 basis points per
annum on such amount for the period such amount remains unpaid.

      (c) In the event of a dispute as to the propriety of any amount invoiced
pursuant to paragraph (a) above, the party receiving the Service shall pay all
undisputed amounts, but shall be entitled to withhold payment of any amount in
dispute (and shall not be obligated to pay interest on the amount so withheld)
and shall endeavor to notify the party providing the Service within 10 Business
Days from receipt of any disputed invoice of the disputed amount and the reasons
each such charge is disputed by the party receiving the Service, provided that
the failure to so notify the party providing the Service within such time period
shall not prevent the party receiving the Service from disputing such invoice.
The party providing the Service shall provide to the party receiving the
Service, or shall cause its Subsidiaries to so provide, records relating to the
disputed amount so as to enable the parties to resolve the dispute. The parties
shall use reasonable efforts to resolve any such dispute promptly.

      (d) Any invoice or payment not disputed in writing by either party within
180 days of such invoice or payment, as the case may be, shall be considered
final and no longer subject to adjustment.

                    LIMITATION OF LIABILITY; INDEMNIFICATION

      Section 4.01. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. (a) Ribapharm agrees that ICN and
each of its Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers, agents and
employees (each, an "ICN Indemnified Person") shall only be liable to Ribapharm
for or in connection with the Services rendered or to be rendered by any ICN
Indemnified Person pursuant to this Agreement, the use by ICN of the ICN Space
or the ICN Common Areas, the transactions contemplated hereby or any ICN
Indemnified Person's actions or inactions in connection with any such Services
or transactions for claims, damages, losses, obligations, liabilities, costs and
expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) resulting
from, or arising out of, breach of contract, negligence or willful misconduct on
the part of any ICN Indemnified Person.

      (b) ICN agrees that Ribapharm and its respective directors, officers,
agents and employees (each, an "Ribapharm Indemnified Person") shall only be
liable to ICN for or in connection with the Services rendered or to be rendered
by any Ribapharm Indemnified Person pursuant to this Agreement, the transactions
contemplated hereby or any Ribapharm Indemnified Person's actions or inactions
in connection with any such Services or transactions for claims, damages,
losses, obligations, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) resulting from, or arising out of,
breach of contract, negligence or willful misconduct on the part of any
Ribapharm Indemnified Person.

      Section 4.02. INDEMNIFICATION. (a) Ribapharm agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless each ICN Indemnified Person from and against any claims, damages,
losses, obligations, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or in connection with
Services rendered or to be rendered by any ICN Indemnified Person pursuant to
this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or any ICN Indemnified
Person's actions or inactions in connection with any such Services or
transactions except for claims, damages, losses, obligations, liabilities, costs
and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees)
resulting from, or arising out of, breach of contract, negligence or willful
misconduct on the part of any ICN Indemnified Person.

      (b) ICN agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Ribapharm Indemnified
Person from and against any claims, damages, losses, obligations, liabilities,
costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees)
arising out of or in connection with Services rendered or to be rendered by any
Ribapharm Indemnified Person pursuant to this Agreement, the transactions
contemplated hereby or any Ribapharm Indemnified Person's actions or inactions
in connection with any such Services or transactions except for claims, damages,
losses, obligations, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) resulting from, or arising out of,
breach of contract, negligence or willful misconduct on the part of any
Ribapharm Indemnified Person.

      Section 4.03. PROCEDURE FOR INDEMNIFICATION INVOLVING THIRD-PARTY CLAIMS.
(a) Notice of Claim. If any Indemnitee receives notice of the assertion of any
Third-Party Claim with respect to which an Indemnifying Party is obligated under
this Agreement to

                                     - 8 -
<PAGE>
provide indemnification, such Indemnitee shall give such Indemnifying Party
notice thereof (together with a copy of such Third-Party Claim, process or other
legal pleading) promptly after becoming aware of such Third-Party Claim;
provided, however, that the failure of any Indemnitee to give notice as provided
in this Section shall not relieve any Indemnifying Party of its obligations
under this Article IV (or any other indemnification provision of this
Agreement), except to the extent that such Indemnifying Party is actually
prejudiced by such failure to give notice. Such notice shall describe such
Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail.

      (b) Obligation of Indemnifying Party. An Indemnifying Party, at such
Indemnifying Party's own expense and through counsel chosen by such Indemnifying
Party (which counsel shall be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee), may
elect to defend any Third-Party Claim. If an Indemnifying Party elects to defend
a Third-Party Claim, then, within ten Business Days after receiving notice of
such Third-Party Claim (or sooner, if the nature of such Third-Party Claim so
requires), such Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnitee of its intent to
do so, and such Indemnitee shall cooperate in the defense of such Third-Party
Claim. Such Indemnifying Party shall pay such Indemnitee's reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with such cooperation. Such
Indemnifying Party shall keep the Indemnitee reasonably informed as to the
status of the defense of such Third-Party Claim. After notice from an
Indemnifying Party to an Indemnitee of its election to assume the defense of a
Third-Party Claim, such Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to such
Indemnitee under this Article IV (or any other indemnification provision of this
Agreement) for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such
Indemnitee in connection with the defense thereof other than those expenses
referred to in the preceding sentence; provided, however, that such Indemnitee
shall have the right to employ one law firm as counsel, together with a separate
local law firm in each applicable jurisdiction ("Separate Counsel"), to
represent such Indemnitee in any action or group of related actions (which firm
or firms shall be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party) if, in such
Indemnitee's reasonable judgment at any time, either a conflict of interest
between such Indemnitee and such Indemnifying Party exists in respect of such
claim, or there may be defenses available to such Indemnitee which are different
from or in addition to those available to such Indemnifying Party and the
representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate, and
in that event the reasonable fees and expenses of such Separate Counsel shall be
paid by such Indemnifying Party (it being understood, however, that the
Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one
Separate Counsel (excluding local counsel) with respect to any Third-Party Claim
(even if against multiple Indemnitees)). If an Indemnifying Party elects not to
defend against a Third-Party Claim, or fails to notify an Indemnitee of its
election as provided in this Article IV within the period of ten Business Days
described above, the Indemnitee may defend, compromise, and settle such
Third-Party Claim and shall be entitled to indemnification hereunder (to the
extent permitted hereunder) on an as incurred basis; provided, however, that no
such Indemnitee may compromise or settle any such Third-Party Claim without the
prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the
Indemnitee, (i) settle or compromise any Third-Party Claim or consent to the
entry of any judgment which does not include as an unconditional term thereof
the delivery by the claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnitee of a written release
from all liability in respect of such Third-Party Claim or (ii) settle or
compromise any Third-Party Claim in any manner that would be reasonably likely
to have a material adverse effect on the Indemnitee.

                                     - 9 -
<PAGE>
      (c) Joint Defense of Certain Claims. Notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 5.05(b), ICN and Ribapharm shall jointly control the defense of, and
cooperate with each other with respect to defending, any Third-Party Claim with
respect to which each party is claiming that it is entitled to indemnification
under this Article IV (or any other indemnification provision of this
Agreement). If either ICN or Ribapharm fails to defend jointly any such
Third-Party Claim, the other party shall solely defend such Third-Party Claim
and the party failing to defend jointly shall use all commercially reasonable
efforts to cooperate with the other party in its defense of such Third-Party
Claim; provided, however, that neither party may compromise or settle any such
Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the other party, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. All costs and expenses of
either party in connection with, and during the course of, the joint control of
the defense of any such Third-Party Claim shall be initially paid by the party
that incurs such costs and expenses. Such costs and expenses shall be
reallocated and reimbursed in accordance with the respective indemnification
obligations of the parties on a periodic basis (but in no event later than the
conclusion of the defense of such Third-Party Claim).

      Section 4.04. PROCEDURE FOR INDEMNIFICATION NOT INVOLVING THIRD-PARTY
CLAIMS. If any Indemnitee desires to assert against an Indemnifying Party any
claim for indemnification under this Article IV other than a Third-Party Claim
(a "Claim"), the Indemnitee shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party notice of
its demand for satisfaction of such Claim (a "Request"), specifying in
reasonable detail the amount of such Claim and the basis for asserting such
Claim. Within 30 days after the Indemnifying Party has been given a Request, the
Indemnifying Party shall either (i) satisfy the Claim requested to be satisfied
in such Request by delivering to the Indemnitee payment by wire transfer or a
certified or bank cashier's check payable to the Indemnified Party in
immediately available funds in an amount equal to the amount of such Claim, or
(ii) notify the Indemnitee that the Indemnifying Party contests such Claim by
delivering to the Indemnitee a Dispute Notice, stating that the Indemnifying
Party objects to such Claim and specifying in reasonable detail the basis for
contesting such Claim. Any dispute described in clause (ii) of this Section 4.04
shall be subject to the provisions of Section 6.01.

      Section 4.05. EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES. Except for the right to pursue equitable
remedies, the remedies provided in this Article IV shall be deemed the sole and
exclusive remedies of the parties with respect to the subject matters of the
indemnification provisions of this Agreement.

                                   ARTICLE V
                              TERM AND TERMINATION

      Section 5.01. TERM. (a) This Agreement shall commence on the date of the
Initial Public Offering and shall terminate on December 31, 2003 (the "Initial
Term"); provided, however, that ICN and Ribapharm may, by mutual agreement,
provide for the continuation of certain services after the Initial Term.

                                     - 10 -
<PAGE>
      (b) The obligation of ICN to provide legal Services under this Agreement
shall automatically terminate on the date that ICN ceases to own at least 50% of
the voting power of the outstanding shares of Ribapharm Common Stock.

      (c) Either party may terminate this Agreement with respect to any one or
more of the Services if the other party shall have failed to perform any of its
material obligations under this Agreement relating to any such Service or
Services, the aggrieved party has notified the other party in writing of such
failure, and such failure shall have continued for a period of 30 days after
receipt by the other party of notice of such failure.

      (d) Ribapharm may terminate any one of the Services listed on Schedule I
hereto individually upon 30 days written notice to ICN and such termination will
not effect the obligations of the parties under this Agreement regarding any
other Services listed on Schedule I hereto.

      (e)   The provisions of Article IV shall commence and terminate as
provided therein.

      Section 5.02. EFFECT OF TERMINATION. Other than as required by law, upon
termination of any Service pursuant to Section 6.01, ICN will have no further
obligation to provide the terminated Service (or any Service, in the case of
termination of this Agreement) and Ribapharm will have no obligation to pay any
fees relating to such Service or make any other payments hereunder; provided,
however, that notwithstanding such termination, (i) Ribapharm shall remain
liable to ICN for fees owed and payable in respect of any Service provided prior
to the effective date of the termination and (ii) the provisions of Articles
III, IV, V, and VI shall survive any such termination.

                                   ARTICLE VI
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

      Section 6.01. DISPUTE RESOLUTION. Resolution of any and all disputes
arising from or in connection with this Agreement, whether based on contract,
tort, or otherwise (collectively, "Disputes"), shall be exclusively governed by
and settled in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.01. The parties
hereto shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to settle all Disputes
without resorting to mediation, arbitration, litigation or other third party
dispute resolution mechanisms. If any Dispute remains unsettled, the parties
hereby agree to mediate such Dispute using a mediator reasonably acceptable to
all parties involved in such Dispute. If the parties are unable to resolve such
dispute through mediation, each party will be free to commence litigation
proceedings for the resolution thereof. No party shall be entitled to
consequential, special, exemplary or punitive damages.

      Section 6.02. AUTHORITY. Each of the parties hereto represents and
warrants to the other that (a) it has the corporate power and authority to
execute, deliver and perform this Agreement, (b) the execution, delivery and

corporate action, (c) it has duly and validly executed and delivered this
Agreement, and (d) this Agreement is a legal, valid and binding obligation,

Agreement, this Agreement and the exhibits hereto shall constitute the entire
agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof
and shall supersede all prior agreements and understandings, whether written or
oral, between the parties with respect to such subject matter. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, Ribapharm shall not be charged
anything under this Agreement for any Services that are specifically required to
be performed under any other agreement between ICN and Ribapharm and any such
other Services shall be performed and charged for in accordance with the terms
of such other agreement.

      Section 6.04. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by and

      Section 6.0.6. AMENDMENT AND MODIFICATION. This Agreement may not be
amended or modified in any respect except by a written agreement signed by both
of the parties hereto.

      Section 6.0.7. BINDING EFFECT; ASSIGNMENT. This Agreement and all of the
provisions hereof shall be binding upon the parties hereto and inure to the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted
assigns. Except with respect to a merger of either party with another Person,

shall be assigned by either party hereto without the prior written consent of
the other party.

      Section 6.08. THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES. The Indemnitees and their
respective successors shall be third party beneficiaries of the indemnification
provisions of Article IV, as applicable, and shall be entitled to enforce those
provisions and in connection with such enforcement shall be subject to Section

to this Agreement. Except as provided in the previous sentence, nothing in this
Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any Person

accordance with past practices. ICN reserves the right to take all actions,
including termination of any particular Service, that ICN reasonably believes to

      Section 6.09. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which
together shall constitute one and the same instrument. The Agreement may be
executed by facsimile signature.

      Section 6.10. WAIVER. The observance of any term of this Agreement may be
waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or
prospectively) by the party entitled to enforce such term, but such waiver shall
be effective only if it is in writing signed by the party against which such
waiver is to be asserted. Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement,
no delay or omission on the part of any party in exercising any right or
privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any
waiver on the part of any party of any right or privilege under this Agreement
operate as a waiver of any other right or privilege under this Agreement nor
shall any single or partial exercise of any right or privilege preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or
privilege under this Agreement. No failure by either party to take any action or
assert any right or privilege hereunder shall be deemed to be a waiver of such
right or privilege in the event of the continuation or repetition of the
circumstances giving rise to such right unless expressly waived in writing by
the party against whom the existence of such waiver is asserted.

      Section 6.11. SEVERABILITY. Any provision of this Agreement which is
prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction,
be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without
invalidating the remaining provisions hereof. Any such prohibition or
unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

      Section 6.12. REMEDIES. Each of ICN and Ribapharm shall be entitled to
enforce its rights under this Agreement specifically, to recover damages and
costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees) caused by any breach of any
provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights existing in its
favor. Each of ICN and Ribapharm acknowledges and agrees that under certain
circumstances the breach by ICN or any of its Affiliates or Ribapharm or any of
its Affiliates of a term or provision of this Agreement will materially and
irreparably harm the other party, that money damages will accordingly not be an
adequate remedy for such breach and that the non-defaulting party, in its sole
discretion and in addition to its rights under this Agreement and any other
remedies it may have at law or in equity, may apply to any court of law or
equity of competent jurisdiction (without posting any bond or deposit) for
specific performance and/or other injunctive relief in order to enforce or
prevent any breach of the provisions of this Agreement.

      Section 6.13. PERFORMANCE; NO AGENCY. Each of the parties hereto shall use
all commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be performed all actions,
agreements and obligations set forth herein to be performed by any Affiliate of
such party. Nothing in this Agreement shall constitute or be deemed to
constitute a partnership or joint venture between the parties hereto or
constitute or be deemed to constitute any party the agent or employee of the
other party for any purpose whatsoever and neither party shall have authority or
power to bind the other or to contract in the name of, or create a liability
against, the other in any way or for any purpose.
