Trademark used by Allergan or its Affiliates in Spectrum’s
development or commercialization of the Option Product;
(C) Spectrum will package the Option
Product in a manner that will not be confused with the Licensed
Product in the Field of Use, and will label such Option Product as
“not for bladder cancer treatment”; and
(D) Spectrum will not promote, market,
sell or distribute such Option Product for use in the Field of Use
in the Allergan Territory, and will use diligent efforts to prevent
and curb any use of such Option Product in the Field of Use in the
Allergan Territory, including meeting the requirements set forth in
Sections 2.7(a) and (d).
(iv) If Allergan opts out of
developing and/or commercializing an Option Product under
subsection (iii) or the Parties fail to enter into an Option
Product Agreement, and Spectrum or any of its Affiliates desires to
commence development or commercialization of such Option Product

Allergan last offered to Spectrum by Allergan; and
(B) if Spectrum (or its Affiliate)
does not execute a definitive agreement for the Proposed
Transaction with a Third Party within nine (9) months
following the date that Allergan opts out under subsection
(iii) or the Parties’ terminated negotiation of an
Option Product Agreement, then Spectrum (or its Affiliate) shall be
obligated to comply with this Section 2.5(b) again prior to
entering into a Proposed Transaction with a Third Party (i.e.,
Spectrum (or its Affiliate) shall deliver a new Option Notice under
Section 2.5(b)(i) and update its data delivery, and recommence
the option process with Allergan).
For clarity, if Allergan opts out of developing and/or
commercializing an Option Product under subsection (iii) or
fails to make an affirmative election within ninety (90) days
after the receipt of an Option Notice, or the Parties fail to enter
into an Option Product Agreement, then Spectrum may then commence a
clinical trial of the Option Product for use outside the Field of
Use. Spectrum acknowledges and agrees that neither it nor its
Affiliates will use this process to circumvent the intent of this
Section 2.5(b).

(c) The Parties acknowledge that,
during the term of the Co-Promotion Agreement, the Parties have
different financial arrangements in the Co-Promotion Region than in

monitor the sales of the Licensed Product in the Field of Use in
the Royalty Territory in order to minimize the quantity of Licensed
Product in the Field of Use that is sold in the Royalty Territory
with a view to diversion for final sale in the Co-Promotion Region.
The failure to stop such diversion shall not be deemed a material
breach of this Agreement. During the term of the Co-Promotion
Agreement, if there is any change in government policies in the
Allergan Territory that materially affects the ability to move
Licensed Product in the Field of Use from the Royalty Territory
into the Co-Promotion Region, the Parties will meet to discuss in
good faith the effect of such changes on diversion.

Apaziquone sold by Spectrum, its Affiliates or sublicensees (the
“ Spectrum Product ”) is used in the Field of
Use in the Allergan Territory, Spectrum shall pay to Allergan
royalties on the actual sales of such Spectrum Product resulting in
such use at the rate of ****; provided , however ,
that, if, in any country in the Allergan Territory, the use of such
Spectrum Product in the Field of Use accounts for **** or more of
the use of any of Allergan’s Licensed Product in the Field of
Use in such country, then Spectrum will pay to Allergan royalties
on Spectrum’s Royalty-Bearing Net Sales of all such Spectrum
Product sold in such country (regardless of the indication in which
it is used) at the rate of ****.
2.8 Delivery Obligations of
Spectrum . Spectrum shall promptly disclose, in writing, to

(c) Allergan Cooperation.
Allergan acknowledges that Spectrum does not possess manufacturing
facilities and that Spectrum’s ability to perform its
obligations under this Section 3.3 depends on the timely
engagement of manufacturing subcontractors which Spectrum is
obligated to engage hereunder. Allergan agrees to cooperate with
Spectrum in the establishment of a commercial supply chain for the
Licensed Product in the Field of Use in the Allergan Territory and
agrees not to unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its consent
to the selection of subcontractors or the approval of
contracts.
(d) Specifications; Additional
Terms . The current specifications for the drug substance, drug
product and diluent of the Licensed Product (“
Specifications ”) are attached hereto as Schedule
3.3(d) . Subject to Section 4.6(b), Schedule 3.3(d)
can only be amended by written agreement of the Parties. The
Parties acknowledge that the Specifications will be updated and
finalized by the Parties as part of the Regulatory Approval in the
Co-Promotion Region and the EU. If and to the extent that Spectrum
ships any Licensed Product to Allergan, each shipment shall be in
accordance with Allergan’s written instructions and
applicable Laws governing the shipment, labeling and packaging of
such Licensed Product. Prior to the production of Licensed Product
under this Agreement, the Joint Supply Committee shall determine
the quality standards applicable to the manufacture of the Licensed
Product. At least two (2) years prior to the Anticipated
Approval Date, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith, and enter
into, a separate written supply agreement which will provide for

Use on terms mutually acceptable to the Parties. The supply
agreement between the Parties shall contain:
(i) terms consistent with provisions
customarily found in agreements for the manufacture and supply of
commercial quantities of products of a similar nature, including
provisions relating to timing and size of production orders,
shipping, certificates on delivery, risk of loss, inspection and
acceptance, timing of invoices and payments, failure to supply,
remedies for breach of representations and warranties;
(ii) the transfer price for all such

Product. If at any time
more than ninety (90) days after the commencement of
negotiation of such agreement, either Party believes such
negotiations have reached an impasse, such Party may by written
notice to the other Party cause a meeting of the Vice President of
Global Technical Operations of Allergan and the Chief Executive
Officer of Spectrum to seek to resolve such impasse. Such meeting
shall be held within twenty (20) days following such written
notice. If, following such meeting of senior executives, either
Party believes an impasse still exists, then such Party may by
written notice cause the Parties to engage in a non-binding
mediation of their differences over the proposed agreement. Unless
the Parties otherwise agree at the time, such mediation, including
the selection of the mediator, shall be conducted in accordance
with the rules of the American Arbitration Association. The fees
and costs of the mediator shall be borne equally by the Parties,
regardless of the outcome of the mediation. If the Parties cannot
agree through mediation to the terms of the supply agreement, then
Spectrum will enable Allergan by assigning the Spectrum
Manufacturing Agreements to Allergan in addition to transferring to
Allergan the validated process for manufacturing and the other
items set forth in subsection (f) below.
(f) Right to Terminate .
Allergan may terminate Spectrum’s responsibility to have
manufactured and supplied Licensed Product to Allergan for sale in
the Allergan Territory under this Agreement at any time with prior
written notice. Such termination shall be effective thirty
(30) days after delivery of the notice, or such later date, at
Allergan’s sole discretion, as necessary to complete
transition to another manufacturer or to Allergan. Termination of
Spectrum’s manufacture and supply obligation shall not
relieve the Parties of any amounts owing between them. On
termination of Spectrum’s manufacture and supply obligation,
Spectrum shall provide to Allergan a copy of all of the
then-current Know How Controlled by Spectrum necessary or useful
for the manufacture of the Licensed Product in the Field of Use,
shall make its manufacturing personnel available for reasonable
consultation with Allergan regarding the processes for Licensed
Product manufacture, and shall provide all other technical
transfers of all parts of the validated process for the Licensed
Product in the Field of Use, including Documents and other
regulatory items. Subject to the terms of the Spectrum
Manufacturing Agreements, Spectrum shall assign to Allergan, and
Allergan shall assume responsibility under, all of Spectrum’s
supply subcontracts for the Licensed Product applicable to the
Field of Use. The Parties shall negotiate in good faith the
transition of Spectrum’s sourcing of Licensed Product from
such Third Party (for example, bifurcating the supply agreement).
After termination of Spectrum’s manufacturing and supply
obligations as set forth herein, Allergan shall be responsible for
all supply and manufacture of Licensed Product in the Field of Use
in the Allergan Territory, including fulfilling such subcontract
agreements from the applicable date of assignment. After Allergan
terminates Spectrum’s manufacturing rights and
responsibilities under this Section 3.3(f), to the extent that
such rights and responsibilities are transferred to Allergan,
Spectrum shall have no further performance obligation under this
Section 3.3, and Allergan shall thereafter be responsible for
compliance with the product quality representations set forth in
Section 11.11 for Licensed Product manufactured for sale in
the Co-Promotion Region, with any costs of non-compliance with such
representations to be borne by Allergan and not included within
allowable expenses.

(ii) Following the launch of the Licensed
Product, on or before November 1 of each Fiscal Year during
the Term of this Agreement, the Parties shall create an updated JMP
detailing activities for the following Fiscal Year. The initial JMP
and follow-on JMPs shall generally conform to the level of detail
utilized by Allergan in preparation of its own product
commercialization plans, with the overall objectives of maximizing
the economic value of the Licensed Product in the Field of Use in
the Co-Promotion Region and of providing Spectrum a meaningful role
in the commercialization of the Licensed Product in the Field of
Use in the Co-Promotion Region. The JMP shall be deemed
Confidential Information of both Parties, and each Party shall use
the JMP for the sole purpose of performing or monitoring
commercialization activities for the Licensed Product in the Field
of Use in the Co-Promotion Region. From time to time as reasonably
necessary during the term of commercialization of the Licensed
Product in the Field of Use in the Co-Promotion Region, the JMC may
update the JMP.

Allergan shall have the right to seek all available rights and
remedies to it, under law or equity (including injunctive relief
against such breach or to enforce the right granted to Allergan
hereunder, except the Standard Development Trigger Reduction), for
such material breach by Spectrum that is not cured as set forth in
