report (within [***] Business Days following the last day of the
applicable month) of the Bulk API held by Patheon, which shall
contain the following information for such month:
Quantity
Received: The total
quantity of Bulk API that complies with the Specifications and is
received at the Facility during the applicable period.
Quantity
Dispensed: The total
quantity of Bulk API dispensed is calculated by adding the Quantity

Quantity
Converted: The total
quantity of Bulk API contained within Finished Product batches
released and shipped during the applicable period.
2.11.2
Quarterly Physical Inventory. In addition, Patheon shall

2.11.3
Annual Average Yield . In addition, within [***] Business
Days of the end of each calendar year, Patheon shall calculate the

released and shipped during the calendar year and compare it to the
target yield specified in Exhibit D for each of the
following Finished Product sku’s, 20 mg 30’s, 40 mg
3’s, 40mg 5’s and 40mg 30’s (the “
Target Yield ”). The AAY shall be calculated by
dividing the Quantity Converted by the Quantity Dispensed during
the calendar year. Patheon shall strive to maintain AAY
levels for each Finished Product above the applicable Target Yield.
If the AAY falls more than [***] percentage points ([***]%)
below the respective Target Yield in any calendar year, then

exceed, in the aggregate, the Annual API Cap:
It shall not
constitute a material breach of this Agreement by Patheon if the
AAY is less than the Target Yield.

the contrary,
Patheon shall reimburse Santarus for such Bulk API at the API
Reimbursement Value within [***] days after discovery of the
Significant API Loss. For clarity, amounts paid for Significant API
Loss must be counted towards Annual API Cap, however for the
purposes of calculating the Annual Average Yield under
Section 2.11.3, all API reimbursed to Santarus pursuant to
this Section shall be removed from the Quantity Received and
Quantity Dispensed totals.
(ii) Patheon shall notify Santarus in
writing in the event that a batch of intermediate or Finished
Product is potentially nonconforming as soon as practical, and in
any event, within [***] days following discovery thereof. Upon
discovery of such potentially nonconforming product, Patheon shall
initiate an investigation to reach a final determination. If the
investigation results in a determination that such product is
nonconforming, Patheon shall reimburse Santarus for the Bulk API in
such product at the API Reimbursement Value within [***] days of
the determination. If there is a disagreement between the Parties
as to whether product is nonconforming, the Parties shall follow
the procedures outlined in Section 3.5.2 for submitting the
product to an independent laboratory for final determination.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a final determination of whether
product is nonconforming shall be made within [***] days of
discovering potentially nonconforming product and if a final
determination is not made within such time period for reasons
within Patheon’s control, Patheon shall immediately reimburse
Santarus for any Bulk API in such potentially nonconforming product
at the API Reimbursement Value.
2.12
Cooperation and [***] Review. Each Party shall forthwith
upon execution of this Agreement designate those of its employees
to be part of the team responsible for managing the relationship
between the parties (the “ Relationship Team ”).
The Relationship Team from each Party shall meet in person or by
telephone or video conference not less than [***] to review the
current status of the business relationship (including performance
against the KPIs as well as any additional manufacturing
performance indicators established by the Parties) and address any
issues that have arisen.

temporarily storing, if requested by Santarus) any order, Patheon
shall test each batch of Finished Product manufactured under this
Agreement, and Raw Materials used for such batch, for conformity
with the Specifications (“Patheon Release
Testing”) . Patheon shall conduct all such Patheon
Release Testing in accordance with the procedures and using the
analytical testing methodologies set forth in the Specifications
and the Quality Agreement. Patheon shall retain sufficient
quantities of all shipped Finished Product, Bulk API and Raw
Materials to perform at least full duplicate quality control
testing. Retained repository samples of all shipped Finished
Product, Bulk API and Raw Materials shall be maintained in a
suitable storage facility until one (1) year after expiry or
such longer period as may be required by Applicable Laws. All such
samples shall be available for inspection and testing by Santarus
at reasonable intervals upon reasonable notice. Santarus shall be
responsible, at all times, for the final release of the Finished
Product, and Patheon shall not ship any Finished Product until
Santarus has completed its final release. Patheon may arrange for
subcontractors to perform specific testing services for Raw
Materials arising under this Agreement without the consent of
Santarus; provided that (a) Patheon shall notify Santarus in
writing prior to utilizing any subcontractor (which original notice
shall suffice for future similar uses of the same subcontractor);

Responsibilities, without invalidating any
remainder of such shipment. Santarus or its agent shall visually
inspect the Finished Products manufactured by Patheon upon receipt
thereof and shall give Patheon written notice (a “
Deficiency Notice ”) of all claims for Finished
Products that deviate from the Patheon Manufacturing
Responsibilities within [***] days after Santarus’ receipt
thereof (or, in the case of any defects not reasonably susceptible
to discovery upon receipt by visual inspection of the Finished
Product, including those requiring laboratory analysis, within
[***] days after discovery thereof by Santarus, but in no event
after the expiration date of the Finished Product). Should Santarus
fail to provide Patheon with the Deficiency Notice within the
applicable [***]—day period, then the delivery shall be
deemed to have been accepted by Santarus on the [***] day after
delivery or discovery, as applicable. Patheon shall have no
liability under Section 3.5.3 for any deviations for which it
has not received notice within the applicable [***]-day
period.
3.5.2
Determination of Deficiency . Upon receipt of a Deficiency
Notice, Patheon shall have [***] days to advise Santarus by notice
in writing that it disagrees with the contents of such Deficiency
Notice. If Santarus and Patheon fail to agree within [***] days
after the Santarus’ receipt of Patheon’s notice as to
whether any Finished Products identified in the Deficiency Notice
deviate from the Patheon Manufacturing Responsibilities, then the
Parties shall mutually select an independent laboratory to evaluate
if the Finished Products deviate from the Patheon Manufacturing
Responsibilities. Such evaluation shall be binding on the Parties,
and if such evaluation certifies that any Finished Products deviate
from the Patheon Manufacturing Responsibilities, Santarus may
reject those Finished Products in the manner contemplated in this
Section 3.5. If such evaluation does not so certify in respect
of any such Finished Products, then Santarus shall be deemed to
have accepted delivery of such Finished Products on the [***] day
after delivery (or, in the case of any defects not reasonably
susceptible to discovery upon receipt by visual inspection of the
Finished Product, including those requiring laboratory analysis, on
the [***] day after discovery thereof by Santarus, but in no event
after the expiration date of the Finished Product). The expenses of
such testing shall be borne by Patheon if the non-conformity with
the Patheon Manufacturing Responsibilities is confirmed, and
otherwise by Santarus. The Parties mutually agree that they shall
resolve all determinations of deficiencies as quickly as possible,
and in any event, within [***] days of a Deficiency
Notice.
3.5.3
Patheon Responsibility . In the event Santarus rejects
Finished Products in accordance with this Section 3.5 and the
rejected Finished Product is determined not to conform to the
Patheon Manufacturing Responsibilities, Patheon will credit
Santarus’ account for Patheon’s invoice price to
Santarus for such non-conforming Finished Products. If Santarus
shall have previously paid for such defective Finished Products,
Patheon shall promptly, at Santarus’ election, either:
(i) refund the invoice price for such defective Finished
Products; (ii) offset such amount against other amounts due to
Patheon hereunder; or (iii) replace such Finished Products
with conforming Finished Products as soon as reasonably possible
without Santarus being liable for payment therefor under
Section 6.3, contingent upon the receipt from Santarus of all
API required for the manufacture of such replacement Finished
Products. Further, Patheon shall reimburse Santarus for all
reasonable shipping, handling and storage charges incurred in
association with such non-conforming Finished Product and for the
Bulk API utilized in such non-conforming Finished Product in
accordance with Section 2.11.4. Nothing in this
Section 3.5.3 shall be construed to limit the rights and
remedies available to Santarus at law or in equity.
