Precedent to Sublicense. GSK will have the right to grant
sublicenses to Third Parties and Affiliates
to its license and option rights
under the ALLERGAN Patent Rights, ALLERGAN
Know-How, and/or ALLERGAN Trademarks,
provided that (a) GSK has obtained the
prior written consent of ALLERGAN, not to
be unreasonably withheld, as provided below
in this Section 2.4, (b) each

(e) GSK provides to ALLERGAN a copy of
those terms and conditions contained in
each such sublicense which demonstrate

to any requests from GSK or its Affiliates
to sublicense any of its and their
rights under this Agreement to the ALLERGAN
Patent Rights, ALLERGAN Know-How,
and/or ALLERGAN Trademarks, as provided
above. If ALLERGAN does not provide its
written consent or refusal to consent
(together with its reasons for such
disapproval) to any such sublicense within
such *** period, ALLERGAN will be
deemed to have consented to such request to
sublicense from GSK or its
Affiliate. ALLERGAN's consent pursuant to
(a) of this Section 2.4 will not be
required for grants of sublicenses by GSK
to Affiliates of GSK, but the
requirement in (b), (c), and (d) of this
Section 2.4 will apply to any such
grants of sublicenses by GSK to Affiliates
of GSK. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Parties acknowledge and
agree that this Section 2.4 will in no
way apply to GSK's sublicense of any of its
rights under Section 2.1.1 to any
Affiliate or Third Party that is providing
services to GSK relating to this
Agreement (e.g., a Clinical Research
Organization (CRO) or distributor) and that
GSK will have the right at any time during
the Term, without complying with any
of the requirements set forth in (a)
through (e) of this Section 2.4, to
sublicense any of its rights under Section
2.1.1, with the right to grant
further sublicenses in accordance with this
Section 2.4, to any Affiliate or
Third Party that is providing services to
GSK or its Affiliates relating to this
Agreement; provided, however, that any such
Third Party or Affiliate (or
sub-contractor thereof) shall use those
rights solely for the purpose of
providing such services to GSK; and further
provided, however, that GSK will
remain fully and unconditionally obligated
and responsible for the full and
complete performance of all of its
obligations under the terms and conditions of
this Agreement whether or not such
performance is carried out by GSK or its
Affiliates or Third Parties.
2.5 Co-Promotion
Option. At any time during such period of the Term that is
after thirty (30) months after the GSK
Sales Commencement Date, ALLERGAN will
have the non-sublicenseable, non-assignable
right, but not an obligation,
exercisable by giving not less than ninety
(90) calendar days' prior written
notice to GSK, to co-promote Product in the
Field of Use in the Territory,
directly or through its Affiliates, in

rights relating to Product as provided in

GSK as a result of a material breach by
ALLERGAN of its co-promotion obligations as

(including, without limitation, Exhibit D),
which breach is not cured by
ALLERGAN within sixty (60) calendar days
after written notice thereof from GSK.

royalty payments and/or license fee
payments to such Third Party (collectively,
the "Third Party Payments") in order
for GSK to practice the rights granted

entitled to offset *** of all such Third
Party Payments against any royalties

credit against the royalty payable under
Section 3.2.1 of this Agreement in such
Calendar Year, an amount equal to the
difference between (i) the Standard Cost
plus *** and (ii) the Allowable
Standard Cost plus ***, multiplied by the
number of Units of Product purchased
by GSK during such Calendar Year; provided
such difference was actually incurred
by GSK.

Improvement and Enhancement activities
outlined in Exhibit E conducted by ALLERGAN

that it will use such payments
solely to cover a portion of the costs and
expenses incurred by ALLERGAN and its
Affiliates in conducting the Product
Improvements and Enhancements activities
set forth on Exhibit E. In the event that
ALLERGAN does not incur any costs and
expenses in conducting Product Improvement
and Enhancement activities in a six

ALLERGAN from GSK pursuant to this Section

<PAGE>
has paid under Section 3.6.1 in such
Calendar Year, the difference will be paid
by ALLERGAN to GSK within sixty (60) days
after the last day of such Calendar
Year, or portion thereof if applicable.
(b) Within sixty (60) calendar days after the last day of each
Calendar Year during the Tail Period, or
portion thereof if applicable, ALLERGAN
will calculate the Tail Period Payments due
to GSK pursuant to Section 3.4 for
such Calendar Year. In the event the total
payment due pursuant to Section 3.4
in any Calendar Year is greater than the
total amount that ALLERGAN has paid
under Section 3.6.2 in such Calendar Year,
the difference will be paid by
ALLERGAN to GSK within sixty (60) days

3.6.4 All payments made under this Agreement will be made in
U.S.
dollars. All payments will be made by check
or wire transfer in immediately
available funds to the following bank
account or to such other bank account
designated in writing by ALLERGAN:
***
For sales of Product in Japanese Yen or in
any currency other than U.S. dollars:
(a) With respect to payments made by GSK to ALLERGAN under this
Agreement, GSK's Net Sales, as defined in
Section 1.46, will be calculated in
accordance with the International Financial
Reporting Standards consistently
applied. GSK Net Sales will be converted
into U.S. dollars using the average
exchange rates as calculated and utilized
by GSK's group reporting system and
published accounts. The current method uses
spot exchange rates sourced from
Reuters/Bloomberg and if changed, GSK will
notify ALLERGAN of the revised method
in advance of it being applied.
(b) With respect to payments made by ALLERGAN to GSK pursuant
to
Section 3.4, ALLERGAN's Net Sales, as
defined in Section 1.46, will be
calculated in accordance with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles
consistently applied. Net Sales will be
converted into U.S. dollars using the
average exchange rates as calculated and
utilized by ALLERGAN's reporting
systems and published accounts. The current
method uses the monthly average of
daily exchange rates obtained from
Bloomberg to convert sales in local currency
into U.S. dollars. If this methodology is
changed ALLERGAN will notify GSK of
the revised methodology in advance of it
being applied.
3.7 Late Payment
Interest. Any payment due and payable under the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, including
without limitation any royalty payment
and any Tail Period Payments, made by GSK
or ALLERGAN after the date such
payment is due and payable, will bear
interest as of the day after the date such
payment was due and payable, and will
continue to accrue such interest until
such payment is made, at rate equal to ***
per month. The
*** Certain confidential information
contained in this document, marked with 3
asterisks, has
been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and
Exchange
Commission pursuant to Rule 24b-2 of the Securities Act of
1934,

16
<PAGE>
payment of such interest will not limit
either Party from exercising any other
rights it may have as a consequence of the
lateness of any payment.
3.8 Taxes. To
the extent a statutory tax withholding obligation is imposed
by a governmental authority upon any
payment made by a Party (the "Payor") to
the other Party (the "Payee") under this
Agreement, including, for example,
royalty payments, due and payable by the
Payor to the Payee under the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, the Payor
will be entitled to withhold from such
payment the amount, if any, of any tax
assessed against the Payee and actually
withheld, provided that such tax is only
for the account of the Payee and
evidence of the payment of such tax is
promptly provided to the Payee. The Payor
will pay the amount of such tax to the
proper taxing authority and will be
entitled to deduct the amount of such tax
from the payment to be made by the
Payor to the Payee. The Payor will advise
the Payee of any tax payment made for
the benefit of the Payee pursuant to this
Section 3.8 and provide the Payee with
copies of tax receipts for all taxes paid
and deducted from the payment due and
payable to the Payee, together with copies
of all pertinent communications from
or with governmental authorities with
respect thereto. At a Party's reasonable
request and subject to the requesting Party
reimbursing any costs and expenses,
each Party will reasonably assist the
requesting Party in any effort by a Party
in claiming any exemption from such
deductions or withholdings under any double
taxation or similar agreement or treaty
from time to time in force, and in
minimizing the amount required to be so
withheld or deducted. ALLERGAN warrants
that ALLERGAN is resident for tax purposes
in United States and that ALLERGAN is
entitled to relief from United Kingdom
income tax under the terms of the double
tax agreement between the United Kingdom
and the United States. ALLERGAN will
notify GSK immediately in writing in the
event that ALLERGAN ceases to be
entitled to such relief. Pending receipt of
formal certification from the United
Kingdom Inland Revenue, GSK may pay royalty
income and any other payments under
this Agreement to ALLERGAN by deducting tax
at a rate specified in the double
tax treaty between the United Kingdom and
the United States. ALLERGAN agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless GSK against any
loss, damage, expense, or liability
arising in any way from a breach by
ALLERGAN of the warranties in this Section
3.8 or any future claim by a United Kingdom
tax authority or other similar body
alleging that GSK was not entitled to
deduct such withholding tax on such
payments at source at the treaty rate.
3.9 Records and
Reports. Any and all payments made by either Party to the
other pursuant to this Agreement will be
accompanied by a written statement
setting forth in reasonable detail the
calculation of such Party's Net Sales,
and, if applicable, the calculation of the
average exchange rate utilized by
such Party to convert a local currency
payment to U.S. dollars. Each Party will
maintain, and will require its Affiliates,
and sublicensees, to maintain
complete and accurate records sufficient to
enable accurate calculation of any
payments due by a Party to the other Party
hereunder, including, without
limitation payment of any royalties and the
Tail Period Payment. Such records
and books of account will be preserved by
each Party and its respective
Affiliates and sublicensees, as applicable,
for a period of three (3) years
after the end of the period covered by such
records and books of account, which
obligation will survive the expiration or
earlier termination of this Agreement.

underpaid, by more than *** for the period
examined, in which case ALLERGAN will
pay all reasonable costs and expenses of
the auditor or accountant incurred by
GSK in the course of making such
determination.
