All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined will have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Agreement.

The parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree to modify the Agreement as follows (the “Amendment No. 1”):

 

1.	Any capitalized term that is not defined in this Amendment No. 1 will have the meaning set forth in the Agreement.

Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 2.1, Client will have the right to purchase Product from Patheon during the term of this Agreement by placing Firm Orders for its Product requirements in accordance with Section 5.1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the Initial Term, Client agrees to purchase from Patheon [***] of its Tablet Product requirements for [***] or [***] of Tablet Products (the “Exclusivity Obligation”). Patheon will be obligated to manufacture and supply all such Product ordered pursuant to Section 5. But the Exclusivity Obligation will cease to be binding on Client and will be permanently converted into a non-exclusive right to purchase Tablet Product from Patheon for the remaining portion of the Initial Term (i) if there is a material breach by Patheon of any of the terms of this Agreement, which breach is not cured within the period set forth in Section 8.2(a), or (ii) under the circumstances set forth in Section 2.2.6 or 5.2(e). Client will be entitled to take the necessary steps to qualify one or more alternative Product manufacturers at any time during the term of this Agreement. Patheon agrees to cooperate with Client and provide all assistance, at Client’s expense, as may reasonably be requested by Client to qualify an alternate manufacturer. Patheon will not have to give an alternative manufacturer access to the Manufacturing Site.
