ARTICLE II
APPOINTMENT OF CARDINAL HEALTH; GENERAL SCOPE OF ACTIVITIES

2.1. Detailing.

(a) Targeted Customers. Cardinal Health shall use its syndicated sales force of 162 Representatives to engage in Product Detail activities in the Territory. Cardinal Health shall assign Representatives for each of the 4,000 Target Customers, in such numbers, and in such Sub-Territories as shall be designated by Acorda from time to time during the Term of this Agreement. Each Representative shall make Product Details on his or her assigned Target Customers based on the general direction given by Acorda’s management team and as mutually agreed to by Cardinal Health. If requested by a Target Customer, Representatives shall be authorized to provide samples of the Product(s) in accordance with Article VII. Unless otherwise agreed to by the parties in writing, all Details of the Product will be Primary Details. In addition, the Representatives shall not be permitted during the Term of this Agreement to Detail any products competing with Acorda’s Product(s) to any of the Target Customers. The appointment of Cardinal Health by Acorda under this Agreement is on a non-exclusive basis and Acorda shall at all times retain the right to promote the Product(s) by whomever, wherever, to whomever and by whatever method it chooses.

2.2. Managers. Cardinal Health will provide an adequate number of Managers as mutually agreed upon by the parties prior to the execution of this Agreement to supervise the activities of Representatives.

2.3. Scope of Activities. The parties shall perform the following activities in connection with the Program:

(a) Cardinal Health shall have sole and exclusive authority to discipline or terminate the employment of Cardinal Representatives and the Managers. At Acorda’s request, Cardinal Health shall cause any Cardinal Representative to immediately cease Detailing the Product based on substantial non-performance or non-insignificant compliance violations as evidenced in performance evaluations or a finding of non-compliance with the terms of this Agreement (including but not limited to, failure to follow Detailing procedures, to comply with Laws or SOPs, or to follow Acorda’s Written Instructions). Cardinal shall either substitute a new Representative to replace any disqualified Representative or re-assign the Sub-Territory of other Representatives in order to ensure that the Target Customers of any disqualified Representative are Detailed by other Representatives. Cardinal shall ensure that no substitute Representative shall commence Detailing without completing the training required under Article VI.

(b) Cardinal Health shall cause each Representative and Manager to attend and successfully complete the Acorda Training Program (as defined in Section 6.1) (including but not limited to training sessions to be conducted by Acorda for each of the Product(s)) and pass the proficiency test specified in Section 6.1(b), prior to participating in the Program. Cardinal shall be responsible for ensuring that any Representative or Manager who has not successfully completed all such training requirements shall not Detail the Product(s) or supervise the sales force (as applicable).

(c) Cardinal Health’s district Managers shall periodically accompany Representatives on Details, conduct field evaluations of the Representatives and the Program, including time supervision, Territory management and reporting, and provide a copy of all such evaluations to Acorda’s coordinator of the Program (or other Acorda representative). At Acorda’s request, Cardinal Health shall be available to discuss the evaluations with Acorda, and permit an Acorda representative to accompany the Representatives on Details.

(d) At the request of Cardinal Health, Acorda shall provide Cardinal Health, without cost, with Product Promotional Materials for the performance and supervision of Detailing. In light of the at risk fee arrangement contemplated by this Agreement, Acorda shall use its reasonable commercial efforts to maintain and supply Product Promotional Materials for the Representatives to perform Details in accordance with the SOPs. For avoidance of doubt, Acorda shall be deemed to have used reasonable commercial efforts as described in the preceding sentence if its failure to maintain and supply Product Promotional Materials arises from problems in the production or delivery of Product Promotional Materials or delay in or lack of approval by a third party, including, without limitation, FDA. Acorda shall be solely responsible for the preparation, content and method of distribution of the Product Promotional Materials. Acorda or its distributor shall be responsible for distributing the Product samples

directly to the Representatives, as described in Article VII. In connection with the Detailing of the Product(s), the Representatives shall use only the Product Promotional Materials provided by Acorda; and under no circumstances shall Cardinal Health or the Representatives develop, create, or use any other promotional material or literature, or materials or other promotional materials of any kind, for the Detailing of the Product(s). Acorda will coordinate with Cardinal Health to replenish supplies of Product Promotional Material when depleted. Acorda shall advise Cardinal Health immediately of any inaccuracy or incompleteness of the Product Promotional Materials, and upon such notice Cardinal Health and the Representatives shall immediately cease the use of any portion or all of the Product Promotional Materials so identified by Acorda, and either destroy or return such Product Promotional Materials to Acorda, at Acorda’s instruction and expense.

(e) Cardinal Health shall instruct the Representatives to limit their verbal statements and claims regarding the Product(s), including but not limited to statements regarding efficacy and safety, to those authorized by Acorda (as specified during the Acorda Training Program) and that are consistent with the Product Promotional Materials. The Representatives shall not add, delete or modify Acorda’s approved claims of efficacy or safety in the Detailing of the Product(s), nor make any changes (including underlining or otherwise highlighting any language or adding any notes thereto) in the Product Promotional Materials. Representatives shall not make any disparaging, untrue or misleading statements about Acorda or any of its Affiliates, employees, competitors or competing products, or intentionally omit to make any statement necessary to avoid making any such statement false or misleading. Representatives shall Detail the Product(s) in strict adherence to all Laws, SOPs and all written instructions agreed upon by the parties in writing at any time during the course of the Program, whether presented during the Acorda Training Program (as defined below), during any follow-up training, or at any other time (collectively, the “Written Instructions”). Cardinal Health shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its approval and implementation of any reasonable written instructions proposed by Acorda and, in the case of instructions that relate to the Product, Cardinal Health shall timely implement all reasonable written instructions proposed by Acorda. Acorda shall ensure that all the Written Instructions comply with all applicable Laws; Cardinal Health shall ensure that all SOPs comply with all applicable Laws.

(f) The Representatives shall remain under the direct authority and control of Cardinal Health, but shall cooperate with Acorda and shall follow the advice and direction related to Detail activities on the Product(s) from Acorda and Cardinal Health mutually. Acorda shall make all decisions with respect to the overall strategy in connection with the Detailing of the Product(s) to the Target Customers. Any Acorda personnel interacting with Cardinal Health Representatives shall not discipline the Representatives or implement terms or conditions of employment or personnel policies and/or practices with respect to the Representatives or otherwise control the daily activities of Representatives.

(g) Cardinal Health shall at its sole cost and expense supply Representatives and Managers with fleet vehicles for their use in performing and supervising the Detailing. Acorda shall reimburse Cardinal Health for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of Representatives and Managers in connection with Acorda Training Program and the POA meetings (as defined in Article VI) if such programs and meetings have been approved in

advance in writing by Acorda. Acorda and Cardinal Health shall establish a mutually acceptable budget for the costs and expenses referenced in this subparagraph 2.3(g) for each Sub-Territory, and Cardinal Health shall obtain prior written approval for any such costs or expenses that exceed the budget.

(h) Acorda shall periodically provide Cardinal Health with data on Product sales in the Territory during the Term as of this Agreement for Cardinal Health’s use in performing this Agreement. Acorda shall also provide Cardinal Health with such other sales and marketing information concerning the Product(s) as Acorda shall deem appropriate, in its sole discretion. Any information which Acorda elects to share with Cardinal Health under this Section 2.3(h) shall be limited to provision of such information only to the extent allowable under Acorda’s agreements with third parties providing such information to Acorda. All information provided by Acorda, its officers, agents or representatives shall be deemed Confidential Information belonging to Acorda and shall be treated in accordance with Article 13 hereof.

(i) Unless otherwise approved in writing by Acorda, the Representatives and Managers shall not invite any Target Customer, or any member of his or her staff or any other health care professional, to any promotional or educational events or activities, or provide any meals, trips or entertainment, or provide any gifts or remuneration in any form, kind or amount to any of them. In the event Acorda hereafter authorizes the Representatives as a group to engage in such promotional or educational activities, Acorda shall so inform Cardinal Health in writing and establish policies, guidelines, training requirements and budgets that must be observed in conducting such activities and agreed to by Cardinal Health.

2.4. Orders for Products. Acorda shall be solely and exclusively responsible for establishing the terms and conditions of the sale of the Product(s), including without limitation, the price at which the Product(s) will be sold, whether sales of the Product(s) will be subject to any discounts, the method of distribution of the Product(s), and whether any credit will be granted or refused in connection with the sale or return of any Product(s). Acorda shall be exclusively responsible for accepting and filling all purchase orders for the Product(s), billing and returns for the Product(s), and all other activities in connection with the sale and delivery of the Product(s), other than Detailing. If Cardinal Health or the Representatives receive an order for the Product(s) or are informed that any entity that wishes to place an order, they shall immediately transmit such order or request to Acorda for further handling and communications with the submitter of the order or request, including acceptance or rejection, which shall be in Acorda’s sole discretion.

2.5. Representatives’ Activity.

(a) Subject to Acorda’s obligations and representations and warranties in this Agreement, any breach of the terms of this Agreement on the part of the Representatives or Managers (both individually and as a group) shall be deemed to be a breach of this Agreement by Cardinal Health. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any acts or omissions of the Representatives or Managers pursuant to the direction, control or supervision of Acorda or its employees or

agents shall not be deemed to be negligent or wrongful acts or omissions of Cardinal Health that constitute a breach of this Agreement.

(b) Each party shall notify the other in writing as promptly as practicable of any such alleged breach on the part of the Representatives or Managers of which it becomes aware. Acorda shall provide Cardinal Health with a reasonable opportunity to remedy such breach to the extent provided in Section 14.4.

2.6. Vacancies/Turnover. In the event of a Representative vacancy due to resignation, reassignment or termination of a Representative, Cardinal Health shall use its best efforts to fill any such vacancy within a six (6) week period. Due to the fee structure under this Agreement, the agreed-upon Service Fees (as defined below) will not be reduced by any Representative vacancy, provided that all missed Details are made up within a reasonable period of time. In the event any such vacancy continues for longer than six (6) weeks, Cardinal Health shall reassign Representatives to ensure that no more than six (6) weeks passes between Details of any Target Customer as a result of any such vacancy.

(a) Termination by Cardinal Health For Cause or Regulatory Problems.

(i) Period 1 & 2. If this Agreement is terminated by Cardinal Health during Period 1 or 2 (as defined in Schedule 3.1) pursuant to (a) Section 14.4, or (b) Section 14.5 due to a regulatory or other problem caused by a person or entity other than Cardinal Health, then Acorda shall pay Cardinal Health the Prorated Payment (defined in Section 14.8(c)(v))

(ii) Period 3. If this Agreement is terminated by Cardinal Health during Period 3 (as defined in Schedule 3.1) pursuant to (a) Section 14.4, or (b) Section 14.5

due to a regulatory or other problem caused by a person or entity other than Cardinal Health and the Gross Sales up to the date of termination are at least [***] of the Annual Baseline Forecast, then Acorda shall pay Cardinal Health the Prorated Payment (defined in Section 14.8(c)).

(iii) Period 4. If this Agreement is terminated by Cardinal Health during Period 4 (as defined in Schedule 3.1) pursuant to (a) Section 14.4, or (b) Section 14.5 due to a regulatory or other problem caused by a person or entity other than Cardinal Health and the Gross Sales up to the date of termination are at leas [] of the Annual Baseline Forecast, then Acorda shall pay Cardinal Health in accordance with the payment schedule set forth in Schedule 3.1 notwithstanding that this Agreement was terminated before the entire year had been completed. For example, if Gross Sales as of the date of termination are [] of the Annual Baseline Forecast, then Acorda shall pay Cardinal Health the amount due if Gross Sales for the entire year were [***] of the Annual Baseline Forecast.

(iv) No Effect on Other Remedies. Payments under this subsection, if any, shall be payment for services rendered and shall not be deemed to be a payment in settlement of any claims that either party may have against the other party under this Agreement. Each party shall retain all rights and remedies available to it at law or in equity.

(b) Termination by Acorda For Cause or Regulatory Problems.

(i) Period 1 & 2. If this Agreement is terminated by Acorda during Period 1 or 2 (as defined in Schedule 3.1) pursuant to (a) Section 14.4, or (b) Section 14.5 due to a regulatory or other problem caused or contributed to by Cardinal Health, then Acorda shall not be obligated to make any payments to Cardinal Health for Services rendered under this Agreement or pay Cardinal Health the Prorated Payment (defined in Section 14.8(c)).

(ii) Period 3. If this Agreement is terminated by Acorda during Period 3 (as defined in Schedule 3.1) pursuant to (a) Section 14.4, or (b) Section 14.5 due to a regulatory or other problem caused or contributed to by Cardinal Health and the Gross Sales up to the date of termination are at least [***] of the Annual Baseline Forecast, then Acorda shall pay Cardinal Health the Prorated Payment (defined in Section 14.8(c)).

(iii) Period 4. If this Agreement is terminated by Acorda during Period 4 (as defined in Schedule 3.1) pursuant to (a) Section 14.4, or (b) Section 14.5 due to a regulatory or other problem caused by Cardinal Health and the Gross Sales up to the date of termination are at least [] of the Annual Baseline Forecast, then Acorda shall pay Cardinal Health in accordance with the payment schedule set forth in Schedule 3.1 notwithstanding that this Agreement was terminated before the entire year had been completed. For example, if Gross Sales as of the date of termination are [] of the Annual Baseline Forecast, then Acorda shall pay Cardinal Health the amount due if Gross Sales for the entire year were [***] of the Annual Baseline Forecast.

(iv) No Effect on Other Remedies. Payments under this Subsection shall be payment for services rendered and shall not be deemed to be a payment in settlement of any claims that either party may have against the other party under this Agreement. Each party shall retain all rights and remedies available to it at law or in equity.

(c) Calculation of Prorated Payment. For purposes of this Section 14.8, the amount of any “Prorated Payment” shall be calculated as set forth below. The parties agree that the provisions of this Subsection (c) only provide the method of calculating payments that are due under Subsections of Section 14.8 specifically requiring payment of the Prorated Payment and shall not create or serve as the basis for an entitlement to any payment not otherwise provided for in Section 14.8.

(i) determine the exact number of days elapsed from the beginning of the Contract Year through the termination date, and divide this number by 365 (the “Pro-ration Fraction”);

(ii) multiply the Pro-ration Fraction by the Annual Baseline Forecast (as defined in Schedule 3.1) in effect for that Contract Year (the “Prorated Baseline Forecast”);

(iii) calculate the aggregate Gross Sales (as defined in Schedule 3.1) from the beginning of the Contract Year through the termination date, based upon data from NDC Health (as defined hereafter) (“Gross Sales to Date”); and

(iv) calculate the percentage of the Prorated Baseline Forecast that such Gross Sales to Date represent (the “Prorated Percentage Result”).

(v) If the Prorated Percentage Result is more than [] but less than [] then the amount of the Prorated Payment shall be paid by Acorda in an amount equal to (1) [***](2) multiplied by the Pro-Ration Fraction, (3) minus the sum total of all interim Advances already paid to Cardinal Health in respect of prior Periods (as defined in Schedule 3.1) of such Contract Year. After payment of such amount, no further Service Fees or Interim Advances shall be paid under this Agreement.

(vi) If the Prorated Percentage Result is equal to or exceeds [***] then a payment shall be paid by Acorda in an amount equal to (1) the Service Fee that would have been payable if aggregate Gross Sales for the entire Contract Year were equal to the same Prorated Percentage Result (as set forth in Schedule 3.1), (2) multiplied by the Pro-ration Fraction, (3) minus the sum total of all Interim Advances already paid to Cardinal Health in respect of prior Periods (as defined in Schedule 3.1) of such Contract Year. After payment of such amount, no further Service Fees or Interim Advances shall be paid under this Agreement.

(d) Termination by Either Party Without Cause. Neither party shall have the right to terminate pursuant to Section 14.2 at any time during Periods 1 and 2. Thereafter, if this

Agreement is terminated by either party in accordance with Section 14.2, then the final Service Fee amount that may be due hereunder shall be calculated as follows.

(i) If this Agreement is terminated by Acorda pursuant to Section 14.2, and the Gross Sales as of the date of termination are at least [***] of the Annual Baseline Forecast then Cardinal Health shall receive a final Service Fee payment, if any is due, in an amount equal to:

(A) if Acorda terminates during Period 3, an amount equal to [***] of the Prorated Payment (if any); and

(B) if Acorda terminates during Period 4, an amount equal to the Prorated Payment (if any).

(ii) If this Agreement is terminated by Cardinal Health pursuant to Section 14.2 and the Gross Sales as of the date of termination are at least [***] of the Annual Baseline Forecast, then it shall receive a final Service Fee payment, if any is due, in an amount equal to:

(A) if Cardinal Health terminates during Period 3, an amount equal to [***] of the Prorated Payment (if any); and

(B) if Cardinal Health terminates during Period 4, an amount equal to the Prorated Payment (if any).

(iii) After payment of any final Service Fee determined to be due in accordance with the foregoing, no further Services Fees or Interim Advances shall be paid under this Agreement.

(e) All payments made to Cardinal Health under this section shall be subject to a “true-up” as provided in Section 3.D. of Schedule 3.1.

14.9. Termination: Return of Materials. Within sixty (60) days following the termination or expiration of this Agreement, Cardinal Health shall return to Acorda all Confidential Information (including but not limited to customer lists and Target Customer information), Product Promotional Materials, Product samples, marketing plans, forms, territory lists, reports and any and all other tangible items provided to Cardinal Health or the Representatives by Acorda, or prepared by or for Cardinal Health or the Representatives based upon, incorporating or summarizing any of the foregoing information or materials.

The rights set forth in this Article 15 shall not limit Cardinal Health’s obligation to provide the oral and written reports and notices, and to support all expense reimbursement requests with documentation, as otherwise provided in this Agreement.

15.2. Overstatements. If any such examination or audit pursuant to Section 15.1 reveals that the amount of Direct Pass-Through Expenses have been overstated, then any excess payment made to Cardinal Health based upon such overstatement shall be offset against any sums then payable or thereafter payable to Cardinal Health, or promptly refunded to Acorda, at Acorda’s election. Acorda shall pay the fees and expenses of the employee or agent engaged to perform the audit, unless such audit reveals a discrepancy of [***] or more for the period examined which is to the disadvantage of Acorda, in which case Cardinal Health shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Acorda in the course of making such determination, including the fees and expenses of the employee or agent.
