WHEREAS, MannKind and AFP entered into the Agreement pursuant to which AFP is to manufacture and supply the Product to MannKind, and MannKind is to purchase certain minimum quantities of the Product;
WHEREAS MannKind and AFP, together with Amphastar, the parent company of AFP, have determined it to be mutually beneficial to amend the Agreement as set forth herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, MannKind and AFP, together with Amphastar, hereby agree to amend the Agreement as follows:

2. Amendments to the Agreement.

2.2 For avoidance of doubt, Amphastar shall assume all of AFP’s rights and obligations under the Agreement.
2.3 With respect to Amphastar’s obligations under the Agreement, Amphastar either shall perform, or shall cause AFP to perform, all such obligations under the Agreement.

Upon MannKind’s written request to Amphastar, which shall be not less than thirty (30) days in advance, MannKind, or a mutually agreed upon independent third party representative on behalf of MannKind’s licensee(s) identified in such a written request (“Licensee’s Representative”), shall have the right to visit Amphastar’s facility located at Usine Saint Charles, 60590 Eragny-sur-Epte, France, during normal business hours to review and inspect Amphastar’s manufacturing operations and quality systems related to the Product and to discuss any related issues with Amphastar’s manufacturing and management personnel. Such audits of Amphastar shall not exceed one (1) time per calendar year for MannKind and shall not exceed one (1) time per calendar year for MannKind’s Licensee’s Representative. For the avoidance of doubt, only two (2) audits in total are allowed per calendar year.
