exceed the Exclusivity Amount for such Drug Product for such Product
Year, then on the last Payment Date of such Product Year BLP shall

will delay exercise of the rights reserved to Pharmos in subsection
(a) above with respect to any Drug Product for a period of up to 365

approved by the parties, or (iii) Phase II clinical studies for
either LET or LEA have not substantially complied with the

relevant R&D Plan for each such substance, provided that no delay
shall occur pursuant to this
subsection (b) if the events described in subparts (i), (ii) or
(iii) shall failed to have occurred solely as a result of the
failure of BLP to provide Pharmos with appropriate clinical trial
materials of LEA or LET, as the case may be, in conformity with
their respective Specifications (other than such failure resulting
from the failure of Pharmos to deliver appropriate Drug Substance
for the production of such clinical Trial materials).

the cure of such circumstance to the reasonable satisfaction of BLP.
In addition, if Pharmos has not initiated Phase III studies with
respect to LEA on or before June 15, 1996, or with respect to LET on
or before September 15, 1996, in either case in accordance with
their respective R&D Plans as approved by the Research and
Development Committee pursuant to Section 5.1 below, then BLP shall
have the right to credit the advances made with respect to LEA
and/or LET, as appropriate, against purchases of Drug Substance to
be Processed into Initial Drug Product. If the parties shall not
have agreed on the protocols and/or safety and efficacy targets to
be included in the R&D Plans for LEA or LET by the dates referenced

advertising, promotional and packaging material (excluding Labels
for the Drug Product which comply with the NDA) to Pharmos for prior
approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Failure of
Pharmos to disapprove of any such material within ten (10) days of

2.9 Termination of Certain Rights.
_____________________________
The parties agree that if BLP fails to provide any required
advance pursuant to Section 2.7 above with respect to a Drug Product
(or Development Product, as the case may be) or any development
funding with respect to such Drug Product or Development Product, as
the case may be, because BLP has notified Pharmos in writing that
(i) such Drug Product or Development Product is reasonably
determined by BLP not to have achieved the safety or efficacy
- 11 -
targets mutually agreed to by the parties, (ii) BLP reasonably
determines that further investment in such Drug Product or
Development Product is not financially justifiable, (iii) BLP
reasonably determines that material adverse changes in the market or
potential market for such Drug Product or Development Product have
occurred, or (iv) BLP reasonably determines upon the written advice
of independent counsel that the commercial sale of such Drug Product
would infringe on the patent rights of third parties not otherwise
licensed to or owned by Pharmos or BLP, then (X) BLP shall have no
further rights or obligations with respect to such Drug Product
under this Agreement of any kind, and (Y) the failure of BLP to make
any such payments in the circumstances described above or for any
other reason with respect to such Drug Product or Development
Product shall not be deemed to be a breach of BLP's obligations
under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement
shall terminate and BLP shall lose any and all rights it may have in
or to the marketing of any Drug Product and any Development Product
if BLP shall determine and notify Pharmos that any of the
circumstances described above apply to the Initial Drug Product.
2.10 Additional Obligations.
______________________
(a) The parties acknowledge that the obligations of BLP to pay
the Exclusivity Amounts set forth above with respect to the Initial
Drug Product and any subsequent Drug Product are dependent on the
ability of Pharmos to provide BLP with sufficient quantities of Drug
Substance to be Processed into Drug Product to substantially meet
the Sales Forecast for Drug Product. Pharmos acknowledges and
agrees that until such time as BLP shall have made sufficient
Adjusted Sales of Drug Product in order to recoup in full the
advances made by BLP to Pharmos under Section 2.7 above, the failure
of Pharmos to supply BLP with substantially all of its requirements
of Drug Substance as required under this Agreement shall constitute
a material breach of this Agreement, and that as a result of such
breach BLP may suffer damage at least in the amount of any
outstanding and unrecouped advances paid to Pharmos under Section
2.7 above. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of
this Agreement to the contrary, BLP agrees to forebear and not
exercise any of its remedies hereunder as a result of Pharmos'
breach of its supply obligations under this Agreement, and will
allow Pharmos to cure such breach, subject to the following:
(i) from and after any such breach, and for so long as
(X) Pharmos is unable for any reason to supply BLP with Drug
Substance sufficient to enable BLP to meet its Sales Forecast
for Drug Product in any BLP Month, and (Y) BLP has not recouped
in full any advances made by BLP to Pharmos under Section 2.7
above, then notwithstanding Section 2.4(b) above BLP shall be
entitled to credit **% [Confidential Information omitted and
filed separately with the SEC] of any Product Price payable to
Pharmos against advances previously paid to Pharmos by BLP
pursuant to Section 2.7 until such advances have been recouped
in full by BLP; and
- 12 -
(ii) BLP shall be permitted to immediately take out of
consignment for Processing into Drug Product quantities of Drug
Substance sufficient to generate Drug Product that, when sold,
will generate Adjusted Sales of Drug Product in an amount
sufficient to allow BLP to recoup any remaining advances paid
to Pharmos under Section 2.7.
If such inventory of Drug Substance is insufficient to permit BLP to
Process the quantities of Drug Product as stated above, and Pharmos
has not otherwise provided BLP, within ten (10) days following the
date of the breach by Pharmos described above in this subsection (a)
with quantities of Drug Substance sufficient to generate Drug
Product that, when sold, will generate Adjusted Sales sufficient to
allow BLP to recoup any remaining advances made to Pharmos under
Section 2.7, Pharmos shall pay to BLP the difference between the sum
of (X) any outstanding advances that have been recouped by BLP under
Section 2.4, plus the amount of advances that would be recouped upon
the sale of any Drug Product (including Drug Product work in
process) remaining in the possession of BLP at the time of the
breach described above in this subsection (a), and (Y) the total
amount of outstanding and unrecouped advances on the date of
Pharmos' default hereunder. If Pharmos fails to satisfy the
foregoing payment obligation within ninety (90) days following the
expiration of the ten (10) day period set forth above, BLP will be
relieved of its forbearance commitment, and in such event may
exercise any remedies available to it under this Agreement, and
further provided that (1) BLP may defer any prospective obligations
to make advances under Section 2.7 and make payments of Exclusivity
Amounts until Pharmos resumes performance of its supply obligations
hereunder, and BLP is reasonably satisfied that there will be no
substantial future interruption; and (2) the period of time which
must elapse under this Agreement until Pharmos obtains co-exclusive
rights with respect to each Drug Product will be tolled and extended
by the number of days starting with the day on which the payment
obligation of Pharmos hereunder shall arise until the date on which
Pharmos shall perform such payment obligation or shall have
otherwise cured the breach of its obligations under this Section
2.10 to the reasonable satisfaction of BLP.
(b) Pharmos acknowledges that, following BLP's recoupment in
full of all advances paid by BLP to Pharmos under Section 2.7, the
failure of Pharmos to supply BLP with substantially all of its
requirements of Drug Substance as required under this Agreement
shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement, and that as a
result of such breach BLP may suffer damage. Notwithstanding the
foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary,
BLP agrees to forebear and not exercise any of its remedies
hereunder with respect to such breach until such time as Pharmos is
unable to provide BLP with sufficient Drug Substance to ensure that
BLP has on hand at least enough Drug Substance to satisfy
substantially all of BLP's rolling six (6) month requirements for
Drug Substance (or if such amount of Drug Substance on hand at BLP
goes below BLP's rolling six (6) month requirement and the parties
- 13 -
cannot mutually agree after good faith consultation that a
resumption of supply is reasonably imminent), unless Pharmos has
concluded a supply contract with a second manufacturer of Drug
Substance under Section 2.11 within ninety (90) days following the
day on which the inventory of Drug Substance on hand at BLP falls
below six (6) months and the parties cannot mutually agree after
good faith consultation that a resumption of supply is reasonably
imminent, it being understood that in such event Pharmos shall be
deemed to have cured the breach described above in this subsection
(b). If Pharmos has failed to cure such breach as set forth above
the Product Price for each Drug Product payable in each BLP Month in
which such breach occurred or is continuing shall be reduced to
****% [Confidential Information omitted and filed separately with
the SEC] of BLP's Adjusted Sales of Drug Product in such BLP Month.
Notwithstanding anything in this subsection (b) to the contrary, BLP
agrees that it will not terminate this Agreement as a result of
Pharmos' breach hereunder.
2.11 Second Source.
_____________
Pharmos agrees that, in consultation with BLP, Pharmos shall
use good faith efforts in order to identify, qualify and conclude a
supply contract with a second manufacturer for the Drug Substance on
terms acceptable to Pharmos in its reasonable discretion. BLP
agrees that it shall bear ******* percent (**%) [Confidential
Information omitted and filed separately with the SEC] of Pharmos'
verifiable out of pocket fees and expenses reasonably incurred in
such efforts ("Second Source Costs"), payable within thirty (30)
days of receipt by BLP of appropriate invoices for, and reasonable
documentation of, such expenses from Pharmos. BLP may credit
against its obligation to contribute **% [Confidential Information
omitted and filed separately with the SEC] of the Second Source
Costs BLP's direct and verifiable labor cost of research and
development and other technical services ("R&D") requested by
Pharmos and/or reasonably and actually rendered by BLP's R&D
personnel in connection with Pharmos' efforts under this Section
2.11 based upon the proportion of R&D hours actually expended with
respect to such matters relative to total R&D hours reasonably
available at BLP computed on the basis of a 5-day, 40 hour work
week. Pharmos may also count in the calculation of Second Source
Costs incurred by Pharmos under this Section 2.11 Pharmos' direct
and verifiable labor costs of R&D reasonably and actually incurred
by Pharmos' R&D personnel under this Section 2.11 on the same basis
as set forth above.
2.12 Generic Versions of Drug Product.
________________________________
(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the
contrary, if the Patent Rights are held to be invalid or
unenforceable in a final decision (which has not been appealed) by a
court of competent jurisdiction as a result of any action or
proceeding brought by a third party (an "Invalidity Event"), or upon
- 14 -
the last to expire of the Patent Rights with respect to a particular
Drug Product (an "Expiration Event"), BLP shall have the right in
each instance to manufacture, use, sell, promote and distribute a
generic equivalent to any such Drug Product (each a "Generic"). If
BLP submits an Abbreviated New Drug Application for a Generic with
respect to any Drug Product (an "ANDA"), it shall notify Pharmos in
writing at least ninety (90) days prior to the anticipated date of
submission. If at the time of the actual submission of such ANDA
Pharmos has not granted to BLP any specific rights in or to the NDA
describing the Drug Product which is the branded form of the
Generic, or to any Patent Rights that may remain in effect at the
time of such submission, then at the option of Pharmos exercised in
its discretion, Pharmos may by written notice to BLP delivered
within sixty (60) days of such submission either (i) in the case of
an Invalidity Event or Expiration Event, cause the marketing rights
granted to BLP under Section 2.3 above to become and thereafter
remain non-exclusive, or (ii) in the case of an Invalidity Event,
terminate BLP's rights under this Agreement with respect to the Drug
Product which is the equivalent to the Generic, such exercise to be
effective in the case of this subpart (ii) no earlier than the date
of approval of the Generic.
(b) If prior to submission of an ANDA with respect to a
Generic for a Drug Product BLP has requested the grant of the rights
set forth in the third sentence of subsection (a) above with respect
to such Generic, then such Generic shall be deemed to be a "Drug
Product" for all purposes of this Agreement and any other agreement
between Pharmos and BLP which may then be in full force and effect.
Pharmos agrees that if BLP requests the grant of rights contemplated
in this Section 2.11, it shall grant such rights under the terms and
conditions of this Agreement without the payment of any additional
compensation by BLP to Pharmos other than the payment of the Product
Price to which Pharmos is entitled with respect to any sale of a
Drug Product by BLP under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything
in this Agreement to the contrary, BLP agrees that it shall have no
right, except as permitted hereunder, to market, distribute or sell
any Generic under any NDA.

BLP in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 3.2.
All Drug Substance delivered to BLP by Pharmos (i) shall continue to
be the sole and exclusive property of Pharmos and full and complete
title therein shall remain with Pharmos until such time as BLP shall
remove Drug Substance from its warehouse and commences Processing of
such Drug Substance, and (ii) shall be kept reasonably segregated
and separate from all other products and materials stored or
warehoused at the Facility. BLP agrees that Pharmos may file, and
BLP shall execute, Uniform Commercial Code financing statements
evidencing the ownership by Pharmos of Drug Substance on consignment
in the possession of BLP from time to time. BLP shall keep complete
and accurate records detailing the receipt of each shipment of Drug
Substance received by BLP and each unit of Drug Product Processed by
BLP under this Agreement. To the extent practicable and at no
additional premium cost to BLP, BLP agrees to cause Pharmos to be
named as an additional insured with respect to any policies of
insurance carried by BLP and covering the loss of any Drug Substance
held on consignment by BLP from Pharmos for Processing under this
Agreement due to fire or other casualty of the type customarily
insured at the Facility.
(b) By the twentieth day of every other calendar month after
the initial forecast described below, BLP shall submit to Pharmos a
written forecast listing BLP's reasonably estimated requirements of
Drug Substance for the subsequent twelve (12) month period,
presented in six two (2) month intervals, on a rolling basis. BLP's
initial twelve (12) month rolling forecast for the Initial Drug
Product shall be provided to Pharmos no later than thirty (30) days
following FDA approval of the Initial NDA. Unless otherwise agreed
in writing by the parties, BLP's estimated bi-monthly requirements
of Drug Substance set forth in each rolling forecast shall be
delivered or caused to be delivered by Pharmos to BLP F.O.B. the
Facility, commencing within thirty (30) days of the date each
written forecast is forwarded to Pharmos, and continuing thereafter
on a timely basis. Each shipment of Drug Substance delivered to BLP
hereunder shall be accompanied by a certificate of analysis which
evidences testing of the Drug Substance for conformity to
Specifications (except for bioburden, the testing for which shall be
the responsibility of BLP). The parties agree that consigned Drug
Substance will be delivered to BLP in such batch sizes as the
parties shall mutually agree from time to time in order to minimize
waste and loss in the Processing of Drug Substance into Drug Product
by BLP.
(c) Drug Substance shall be received by BLP subject to BLP's
inspection and may be rejected if found not to conform to the
Specifications or otherwise fail to be as warranted hereunder.
- 16 -
Within two (2) business day of delivery of Drug Substance, BLP shall
inspect such shipment of Drug Substance for visually obvious defects
and report such defects immediately to Pharmos. Within thirty (30)
days of delivery to BLP, BLP may undertake its own quality control
tests to ensure that the Drug Substance delivered is in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement. Pharmos' representatives may be
present at the Facility during the conduct of such quality control
tests by BLP. BLP shall be deemed to have accepted each shipment of
Drug Substance delivered by Pharmos if Pharmos does not receive
written notice to the contrary within thirty (30) days of delivery.
(d) All claims for shortages or other damage not visually
obvious shall be reported in writing to Pharmos within thirty (30)
days after the date of arrival of each shipment of Drug Substance at
the Facility. At Pharmos' request, BLP shall promptly supply either
some of the Drug Substance which is allegedly defective or some
other evidence of deficiency which Pharmos shall reasonably specify.
If Drug Substance does not meet Specifications, or is subject to any
claim, defect or shortage, the rejected Drug Substance shall not be
used by BLP and shall be returned promptly by BLP to Pharmos at
Pharmos' expense, or such other mutually agreed upon response shall
be undertaken. Pharmos shall replace such rejected Drug Substance
with such quantity of Drug Substance which conforms to the
Specifications as soon as practicable. In the event of any dispute
between BLP and Pharmos as to whether any of the Drug Substance
delivered to BLP conforms with the Specifications, samples of the
Drug Substance in dispute shall be sent to the Testing Laboratory,
whose findings shall be binding on the parties except in cases of
gross and manifest error on the part of the Testing Laboratory;
provided, however that if the Testing Laboratory determines that the
Drug Substance is not defective, the parties agree that BLP's sole
obligation shall be to use reasonable, good faith efforts to
reconcile its quality assurance testing results with the findings of
the Testing Laboratory. If BLP is unable to reconcile such results,
BLP shall have no obligation to use the rejected Drug Substance. The
cost of such testing with the Testing Laboratory shall be borne by
the losing party.
(e) BLP shall store the inventory of consigned Drug Substance
and Drug Product Processed pursuant to this Agreement in compliance
with all applicable FDA and FDC Act requirements, with sound
commercial practices common to the industry, and with the same
degree of care which BLP applies to its own raw materials and
finished products; and such inventories shall be reserved
exclusively for the Processing of Drug Substance into Drug Product
under this Agreement. BLP shall be entitled from time to time to
withdraw from the consigned inventory of Drug Substance in its
possession, in appropriate batch sizes, a sufficient quantity of
Drug Substance necessary for BLP to meet its Processing needs, or to
make such other use of the Drug Substance necessary to comply with
CGMP requirements and/or the FDC Act.
(f) Notwithstanding anything in this Article III to the
contrary, Pharmos warrants to BLP that the Drug Substance, when
- 17 -
shipped to BLP, will conform to the Specifications, will not be
adulterated or misbranded within the meaning of the FDC Act, and
will have a remaining shelf life of no less than *************
months [Confidential Information omitted and filed separately with
the SEC].

BLP shall exercise its commercial and scientific good faith
efforts to continue to perform the Services with respect to the
Initial Drug Product, and will perform such Services with respect to
any subsequent Drug Product, and to develop a DMF covering the
Processing of the Drug Substance into the Initial Drug Product and
any subsequent Drug Product, provided that BLP shall not be
obligated to perform such Services or develop a DMF with respect to
any Drug Product or Development Product with respect to which BLP
shall have lost all marketing rights under this Agreement. Such
efforts shall be consistent with those employed by BLP for its own
proprietary drug products. BLP shall allow Pharmos to continue to
reference any DMF in the course of seeking and obtaining FDA
approval of the Initial NDA and any subsequent NDA, and shall
provide Pharmos with a DMF reference letter in each case; provided,
however, that BLP shall have no obligation to disclose to Pharmos
the contents of any DMF. BLP further agrees to continue to provide
Pharmos with BLP Technical Documentation as Pharmos may reasonably
deem necessary or appropriate solely in order for Pharmos to obtain
and thereafter maintain FDA approval of the Initial NDA and any
subsequent NDA as Pharmos may from time to time reasonably request
during the Term.
