(ii) in the event that a Change of Control takes place after the first two (2) years from the Product Launch Date but during the initial Term of the Agreement, either, at the sole option of Cygnus or Cygnus’ successor in interest, as the case may be, (A) an annual payment of forty percent (40%) of Net Sales or forty-five percent (45%) of Net Sales if Net Sales exceed two hundred twenty-five million dollars ($225,000,000) in the Sales Year immediately preceding the Change of Control for the number of years that would have remained under the initial Term but for termination of this Agreement, minus the amount of costs that would have been incurred under Section 4.1 but for termination of this Agreement (however, in no event shall such costs be less than those costs of the Sales Year immediately prior to termination) from the date of termination of this Agreement through the end of the initial Term and such payments shall be made in accordance with the terms of Section 2.5 and Section 2.6, or (B) the fair market value of a cash flow stream of forty percent (40%) of Net Sales or forty-five percent (45%) of Net Sales if Net Sales exceed two hundred twenty-five million dollars ($225,000,000) in the Sales Year immediately preceding the Change of Control for the number of years that would have remained under the initial Term but for termination of this Agreement, minus the amount of costs that would have been incurred under Section 4.1 but for termination of this Agreement (however, in no

event shall such costs be less than those costs of the Sales Year immediately prior to termination) from the date of termination of this Agreement through the end of the initial Term. The parties agree to negotiate the fair market value in good faith promptly following notice of termination pursuant to Section 11.5(a). In the event no agreement upon fair market value has been reached within fifteen (15) calendar days of such notice of termination, the parties agree that fair market value shall be determined by a valuation expert within fifteen (15) calendar days thereafter whose determination shall be binding and conclusive on the parties and whose cost shall be borne equally by the parties. Payment of fair market value shall be made within fifteen (15) calendar days of its determination. However, in no event will Sankyo owe Cygnus payments under this paragraph.

(c) In the event that a Change of Control affecting Cygnus takes place and Sankyo exercises its right of termination, then Cygnus or Cygnus’ successor in interest, as the case may be, shall pay Sankyo as follows:

(i) in the event that a Change of Control affecting Cygnus takes place during the first two (2) years from the Product Launch Date, (A) an amount equal to Sankyo’s investment from the Effective Date of the Co-Promotion Agreement until the date of termination of this Agreement (including all milestone payments under this Agreement and the Co-Promotion Agreement dated November 28, 2001 made by Sankyo to Cygnus and all costs and expenses incurred by Sankyo to comply with its obligations under Section 4.1) minus fifteen percent (15%) of Net Sales for the first Sales Year and minus thirty percent (30%) thereafter through the date of termination of this Agreement and (B) either, at the sole option of Cygnus or Cygnus’ successor in interest, as the case may be, (x) an annual payment of four percent (4%) of Net Sales from the date of termination of this Agreement through the end of the initial Term (without regard to such termination) and such payments shall be made in accordance with the terms of Section 2.5 and Section 2.6, or (y) the fair market value of a cash flow stream of four percent (4%) of Net Sales for a period of time equal to the duration of time remaining in the initial Term (without regard to termination). The parties agree to negotiate the fair market value in good faith promptly following notice of termination pursuant to Section 11.5(a). In the event no agreement upon fair market value has been reached within fifteen (15) calendar days of such notice of termination, the parties agree that fair market value shall be determined by a valuation expert within fifteen (15) calendar days thereafter whose determination shall be binding and conclusive on the parties and whose cost shall be borne equally by the parties. Payment of fair market value shall be made within fifteen (15) calendar days of its determination.

(ii) in the event that a Change of Control takes place after the first two (2) years from the Product Launch Date but during the initial Term of the

The parties agree to negotiate the fair market value in good faith promptly following notice of termination pursuant to Section 11.5(a). In the event no agreement upon fair market value has been reached within fifteen (15) calendar days of such notice of termination, the parties agree that fair market value shall be determined by a valuation expert within fifteen (15) calendar days thereafter whose determination shall be binding and conclusive on the parties and whose cost shall be borne equally by the parties. Payment of fair market value shall be made within fifteen (15) calendar days of its determination. However, in no event will Sankyo owe Cygnus payments under this paragraph.

12. INDEMNIFICATION

12.1 Indemnification by Cygnus. Cygnus agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend Sankyo, its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives from and against any and all liabilities, losses, suits, claims, damages and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, expert fees and other disbursements) (collectively, “Liabilities”) asserted against or incurred by Sankyo arising out of or relating to (a) the use, distribution by Cygnus, marketing by Cygnus, field sales activity by Cygnus, sale by Cygnus, repair or replacement, manufacture and/or supply of the Product (including, without limitation, Liabilities relating to product liability, product deficiencies and/or personal injury); (b) the breach by Cygnus of any of its representations, warranties or other obligations under this Agreement and/or the Supply Agreement; (c) a claim by a third party that the marketing, sales, use, offer for sale or sale of the Product in the Territory during the Term or use of sales and marketing material created by Cygnus related to the Product in the Territory during the Term infringes any patent, trademark, copyright or other intellectual property rights of such third party; and/or (d) any negligence or willful misconduct of Cygnus; except to the extent any such Liabilities set forth above result from the breach by Sankyo of its representations, warranties or obligations under this Agreement and/or the Supply Agreement or its negligence or willful misconduct, or its sale, marketing or distribution of Product in a manner which is inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement and/or the Supply Agreement. THE INDEMNIFICATION PROVIDED HEREBY SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO INCLUDE INDEMNIFICATION FOR LOST PROFITS OR INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF SANKYO. Any indemnification hereunder shall be net of any insurance proceeds recovered by Sankyo.

12.2 Indemnification by Sankyo. Sankyo agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend Cygnus, its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives from and against any Liabilities asserted against or incurred by Cygnus, arising out of or relating to (a) the distribution by Sankyo, marketing by Sankyo, field sales activity by Sankyo, sale by Sankyo of Product; (b) the breach by Sankyo of any of its representations, warranties or other obligations under this Agreement and/or the Supply Agreement; (c) a claim

THE INDEMNIFICATION PROVIDED HEREBY SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO INCLUDE INDEMNIFICATION FOR LOST PROFITS OR INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF CYGNUS. Any indemnification hereunder shall be net of any insurance proceeds recovered by Cygnus.

12.3 Cooperation in Connection with Indemnification. Any party entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 12.1 or Section 12.2 shall notify the indemnifying party promptly of any claim that might give rise to a claim of indemnification, shall allow the indemnifying party to handle the defense of the claim (provided the indemnifying party acknowledges its obligation to indemnify hereunder), shall cooperate in the defense of such claim and shall not settle such claim without the indemnifying party’s written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). An indemnified party shall have the right to participate in the defense of any matter as to which indemnification is being provided with its own counsel and at its own expense. Where any indemnity is claimed under this Agreement, the party claiming such indemnity shall take all reasonable action at the request of the indemnifying party (the reasonable cost of which shall be borne by the indemnifying party) to mitigate such Liabilities.

13. NO SALE OR LICENSE OF CYGNUS PATENT RIGHTS OR CERTAIN TRADEMARKS. OPTION FOR CERTAIN COUNTRIES IN ASIA.

13.1 During the Term of this Agreement, Cygnus may not assign, sell or license any Cygnus Patent Rights, or the trademarks “GLUCOWATCH” or “G2,” or the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇ domain name to any third party who is not an Affiliate unless such assignment, sale or license occurs in connection with a Change of Control. Cygnus may, however license or sublicense any Cygnus Patent Rights to a third party for products other than the Product (as defined in Section 1.15). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Cygnus may encumber or pledge any Cygnus Patent Rights and/or the above-mentioned trademarks pursuant to one or more financing arrangements only after Cygnus has fully paid off the deferred payments set forth in Section 2.4.

13.2 During the Term of this Agreement, Cygnus grants Sankyo a right of first refusal for the rights to sell, market and distribute the Product in Japan, China, Korea, Thailand and/or Taiwan. In the event Sankyo exercises its right, the parties will negotiate in good faith the terms and conditions of such an arrangement and may, if both parties reach agreement, enter into a separate agreement for Japan and/or China.

14. ANTICIPATORY BREACH

14.1 During the Term of this Agreement, Within fifteen (15) calendar days after the end of each month, and within five (5) calendar days after the occurrence of any adverse material event,

during the Term of the Agreement Cygnus shall provide Sankyo with a written report describing the aggregate amount of its cash and investments, as permitted in Exhibit D, Number 3, as of the end of the month or event. If such aggregate amount is less than the amount of Cygnus Cash Requirements, as defined below, and both of the following conditions are met: (a) Sankyo is not in breach of any material term of this Agreement, including but in no way limited to breach of its sales, marketing and distribution obligations under Section 4.1 or its supply payment obligations under the Supply Agreement, and (b) Net Sales by Sankyo are greater than or equal to ninety percent (90%) of the amounts set forth in Exhibit E for the specified Calendar Years as prorated due to the calendar month in which this event occurs, then Sankyo may declare, and such declaration must be in writing and pursuant to Section 15.4, an “Anticipatory Breach.” “Cygnus Cash Requirements” equals the amount of any net decrease in cash and investments for the most recent Calendar Quarter, after eliminating the effect of any material and non-recurring payments (including but not limited to payments of deferred payments to Sankyo or material arbitration and debt obligations existing as of the Effective Date), as reported on Cygnus’ most recent quarterly (10-Q) or annual (10-K) reports filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for the most recent Calendar Quarter.

14.2 In the event that an Anticipatory Breach occurs, upon prior written notice Sankyo may exercise any or all of the following rights as set forth in Section 14.2(a) and (b):

(a) the right to purchase Cygnus’ Regulatory Approval submissions including but not limited to its pre-market approval applications and any supplements thereto at the fair market value, and contract with Cygnus to be Sankyo’s contract regulatory organization and contract research and development organization for the Product in the Territory during the Term. The parties agree to negotiate in good faith the fair market value of Cygnus’ Regulatory Approval submissions promptly following notification by Sankyo of its intent to exercise this right. In the event no agreement upon fair market value has been reached within fifteen (15) calendar days of such notice of exercise, the parties agree that fair market value shall be determined by a valuation expert within fifteen (15) calendar days thereafter whose determination shall be binding and conclusive on the parties and whose cost shall be borne equally by the parties. Payment of fair market value shall be made within fifteen (15) calendar days of its determination. Additionally, the parties will negotiate in good faith the terms and conditions of the contract regulatory and contract research and development contractual obligations. In the event that Cygnus cannot perform as a contract regulatory organization and/or a contract research and development organization for the Product in Territory during the Term, then Sankyo may contract with third parties for these services. The parties will also negotiate in good faith and amend the terms of this Agreement to reflect the changed obligations and responsibilities between the parties, however such amendments will not result in Sankyo receiving a less favorable combination of Sales and Marketing Fees and Transfer Prices.

(b) the right to contract with Cygnus to be Sankyo’s contract manufacturing organization for the Product in the Territory during the Term. The parties will negotiate in good faith the terms and conditions of the contract manufacturing contractual obligations. The parties will also negotiate in good faith and amend the terms of this Agreement to reflect the changed obligations and responsibilities between the parties, however such amendments will not result in Sankyo receiving a less favorable combination of Sales and Marketing Fees and Transfer Prices. Furthermore, Cygnus will assign its manufacturing contracts with third parties to Sankyo; and,

only in the event that such manufacturing contracts with third parties are not sufficient for manufacture of the Product, Sankyo may exercise its license under Section 2.1 to manufacture or have a third-party manufacture the Product in the Territory during the Term.

14.3 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time during the Term of this Agreement after Sankyo has declared Anticipatory Breach, the sum of Cygnus’ cash and investments, excluding any proceeds received from Sankyo for the purchases and contracts set forth in Section 14.2, is sufficient to meet Cygnus Cash Requirements for a period of six (6) months, Cygnus may then have the option, at its sole discretion, to do one or more of the following:

(a) repurchase Cygnus’ Regulatory Approval submissions, such as its pre-market approval applications and any supplements thereto, at the then-current fair market value and terminate any contract regulatory and contract research and development contractual obligations made pursuant to Section 14.2(a). The parties agree to negotiate the fair market value in good faith promptly following notification by Cygnus of its intent to repurchase these submissions. In the event no agreement upon fair market value has been reached within fifteen (15) calendar days of such notice of repurchase, the parties agree that fair market value shall be determined by a valuation expert within fifteen (15) calendar days thereafter whose determination shall be binding and conclusive on the parties and whose cost shall be borne equally by the parties. Payment of fair market value shall be made within fifteen (15) calendar days of its determination. The parties will negotiate in good faith and amend the terms of this Agreement to reflect the changed obligations and responsibilities between the parties, however such amendments will not result in Cygnus receiving a less favorable combination of Sales and Marketing Fees and Transfer Prices than are present in this Agreement, prior to any amendment pursuant to Section 14.2(a)

(b) have Sankyo re-assign the manufacturing contracts with third parties as set forth in Section 14.2(b) to Cygnus; terminate any contract manufacturing contractual obligations with Sankyo, and Sankyo will not manufacture or have a third-party manufacture the Product for Sale in the Territory. The parties will negotiate in good faith and amend the terms of this Agreement to reflect the changed obligations and responsibilities between the parties, however such amendments will not result in Cygnus paying a less favorable combination of Sales and Marketing Fees and Transfer Prices than are present in this Agreement, prior to any amendment pursuant to Section 14.2(b).

14.4 The parties will cooperate in good faith in negotiating the purchases, contracts and repurchases set forth in Section 14.2 and Section 14.3, and will each execute any and all necessary documents to execute such transactions. Additionally, the parties will work together to effectuate a smooth transition of such purchases, contracts and repurchases.
