forth in Section 4.7.2 with respect to any country in the
Madaus Territory, Indevus shall have the right to terminate this
Agreement with respect to such country by providing forty-five
(45) days written notice of such election to Madaus. In such

|
|
this Agreement,
including Section 4.7.1 or any obligation under Article V or
Article VI. The foregoing right to terminate with respect to a
country in the Madaus Territory shall not apply if Madaus’s
determination or failure is due substantially to Indevus’
inability to obtain one or multiple of one batch production, as may
be requested by Madaus, pursuant to the last sentence of
Section 5.6.2. unless a third party is willing and able to
fulfill (and does in fact fulfill) said obligations with respect to
said country on the terms last offered to Madaus.
|
4.7.4 Notwithstanding (a) any
determination by Madaus not to meet, or any failure of Madaus to
meet, any of the obligations set forth in Section 4.7.2 with
respect to any country, and/or (b) any election by Indevus to
terminate the Agreement with respect to such country, any milestone
payments otherwise due pursuant to Section 6.1 with respect to
such country (or any jurisdiction that includes such country) shall
nevertheless be paid by Madaus, subject, however to the next
sentence. As to any country as to which Madaus has made such
milestone payment, but determined not to meet, or failed to meet,
any of the obligations set forth in Section 4.7.2 with respect
to such country, Indevus shall reimburse Madaus fifty percent
(50%) of any milestone or similar payments Indevus receives
during the Term from any Third Party with respect to marketing
Product in that country promptly upon receipt thereof.
4.7.5 If Madaus, its Affiliates or
their respective Marketing Distributors sell Product to a customer
who also purchases other products or services from any such entity,
Madaus agrees not to, and to require its Affiliates and their
Marketing Distributors not to, discount or price Product in a
manner that is intended to disadvantage Product in order to benefit
sales or prices of other products offered for sale by Madaus, its
Affiliates or their Marketing Distributors to such
customer.
4.7.6 Subject to the terms of this
Section 4.7.6, Madaus will not (and will ensure that its
Affiliates do not) at any time during the Term of this Agreement,
directly or indirectly, in any country in the Madaus Territory or
the Joint Territory, or in any country as to which this Agreement
has been terminated in accordance with Sections 4.7.3 and 12.4.2,
develop, manufacture, use, market, import/export, offer for sale,
sell or distribute, any Competing Product, nor cause any Competing
Product to be developed, manufactured, distributed, marketed or
sold on its own behalf or on behalf of any Third Party through any
distributor or chain of distribution. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event that Madaus purchases a Third Party or is
purchased by, or takes control of or becomes controlled by a Third
Party, which has developed or commercialized (and is continuing to
sell), a Competing Product (directly or indirectly) in a country in
the Madaus Territory, then Madaus or such Third Party shall, within
six (6) months after such event either (i) cease
marketing, or cause its applicable Affiliate to cease marketing,
the Competing Product in that country; (ii) divest, or cause
its applicable Affiliate to divest, the Competing Product in that
country; or (iii) give up Madaus’ rights with respect to
Product in that country effective automatically at the end of such

During any
portion of any Renewal Supply Term that commences after the
expiration of the Manufacturing Payment Term, the Supply Price for
all Bulk Drug Product supplied by Indevus under this Agreement
shall equal Indevus’ Manufacturing Costs, and the
Manufacturing Costs Cap shall not be applicable. If Indevus’
Manufacturing Costs exceed [*] of Bulk Drug Product (subject
to adjustment as set forth in the next paragraph), Madaus shall
have the right to appoint a second source supplier of Bulk Drug
Product, provided, however , that in such event, Madaus
shall continue to remain liable for any outstanding Binding Portion
of a Forecast or Purchase Order.

[*] the average of: (A) the number obtained by
(i) dividing the consumer price index
(“Verbraucherindex” 2000=100) as available on the
German Federal Statistics Office (“Statistisches Bundesamt
Deutschlands”) website at
http://www.destatis.de/indicators/d/pre110ad.htm (the

[*] the average of (A) the number obtained by
(i) dividing the consumer price index
(“Verbraucherindex” 2000=100) as available on the
German Federal Statistics Office (“Statistisches Bundesamt
Deutschlands”) website at
http://www.destatis.de/indicators/d/pre110ad.htm (the

reported on the Website on the date of such inflation adjustment by
(ii) the same index with respect to the most recent month
reported on the Website for [*] , multiplied by (iii)
[*] and (B) the increase in Indevus’
Manufacturing Costs from [*] until the date of any
calculation required by this Section 5.4.2(b).

The same
adjustment shall be made annually and shall apply as to each new
one-year period during any Renewal Supply Term commencing after the
expiration of the Manufacturing Payment Term. An example of this
adjustment, for illustrative purposes only, is set forth on
Schedule 5.4.2(b).
|
5.4.3 Indevus will use commercially
reasonable efforts, consistent with its agreements with Third Party
manufacturers, to achieve production, volume and other efficiencies
in the manufacturing of the Bulk Drug Product which, to the extent
resulting in a reduction in Indevus’ Manufacturing Costs,
shall result in a corresponding reduction in the portion of the
Supply Price allocated to Indevus’ Manufacturing
Costs.
5.4.4 With respect to Bulk Drug
Product used in the Madaus Territory for Samples, such Bulk Drug
Product (a) will not be subject to the Manufacturing Payment,
and (b) will be provided to Madaus for a supply price equal to
Indevus’ Manufacturing Costs; provided, however , that
during each year of the Initial Supply Term, the Manufacturing
Costs Cap shall be applicable to quantities of Bulk Drug Product
used as Samples during that year that are less than ten percent
(10%) of Madaus’ aggregate annual quantities of Bulk
Drug Product purchased for such year hereunder. Any quantities of
Bulk Drug Product used as Samples exceeding such amount shall not

required by any Regulatory Authority. For example, if at any time
during the Initial Supply Term, Madaus is purchasing Madaus Marked
Capsules under this Agreement, Indevus’ Manufacturing Costs
associated with the production of Madaus Marked Capsules are
[*] and Indevus’ Manufacturing Costs that would have
been associated with the production of the same quantity of Bulk
