If BIONICHE is unable to meet its supply obligations with respect to any Purchase Order, CUMBERLAND shall be free to procure from third parties part or all of the quantities of the Drug Product covered by the relevant Purchase Order. In the event that BIONICHE is unable to supply the Drug Product to CUMBERLAND for any reason other than for Force Majeure or failure of CUMBERLAND to fulfill its obligations hereunder, BIONICHE will reimburse CUMBERLAND for any increase in the price of obtaining the Drug Product from an alternate supplier; provided that such replacement Drug Product was purchased on reasonable commercial terms, and provided further that such failure to supply was in respect of Drug Product that was the subject of a Purchase Order provided by CUMBERLAND and accepted by BIONICHE under Paragraph 2.7.

For purposes hereof, “Manufacturing cost” shall mean, with respect to the Drug Product, BIONICHE’s actual and documented cost of raw materials, direct labor, Manufacturing, packaging, and overhead amounts directly applicable to such Manufacturing costs (including appropriately amortized capital equipment costs and excluding non-manufacturing overhead and allocations and excluding costs representing Manufacturing changes for which CUMBERLAND does not provide prior written consent pursuant to Article 8), calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied (the allocation of overhead to be consistent with BIONICHE’s allocation of overhead as of the date of this Agreement). CUMBERLAND reserves the right to audit the records of BIONICHE in order to determine that such increases and/or decreases are appropriate. Any increase in price shall not exceed the twelve (12) month percent increase in the Producer Price Index as published by the U.S. government and shall be further subject to a maximum increase of five percent (5%) per year over the life of the Agreement.
(c) Notwithstanding any of the contrary herein contained, should CUMBERLAND: (i) request a change in Specifications, or (ii) unreasonably withhold the consent requested under Paragraphs 2.3 or 2.4, which request or refusal results in an increase in Manufacturing Costs, BIONICHE shall be entitled to pass on such costs to CUMBERLAND immediately in the form of a Drug Product price increase.
3. TERM AND TERMINATION
3.1 Term: This Agreement shall commence on the date first above written and will continue until the fifth anniversary of the date on which the FDA grants approval to market and sell the Drug Product, unless sooner terminated pursuant to Paragraphs 3.2 or 3.3 hereof.

(a) Default: Thirty (30) days following written notice, by either party to the other party, in the event that the other party breaches any provision of this Agreement, and such party fails to remedy the breach prior to the expiration of the thirty (30) day period; provided that, in the case of nonpayment of sums due hereunder, the remedy period shall be decreased to ten (10) days.
(b) Insolvency: Written notice by either party to the other upon insolvency or bankruptcy of the other party, and the failure of any such insolvency or bankruptcy to be dismissed within sixty (60) days.

(d) Costs: Immediately upon written notice by BIONICHE to CUMBERLAND if the Manufacturing cost per unit of Drug Product calculated in the manner set forth in Paragraph 2.10(a) hereof exceeds the purchase price per unit of Drug Product set forth in Schedule I, as adjusted pursuant to Paragraphs 2.10(b) and/or (c) hereof.
(e) No FDA Approval: Immediately upon written notice by BIONICHE to CUMBERLAND if the FDA does not grant CUMBERLAND approval to market and sell the Drug Product on or before the second anniversary of the date of this Agreement.

If the parties negotiate in good faith but do not conclude an agreement within the Option Period, BIONICHE agrees not to enter into an agreement covering the Excluded Products in the Territory with any third Person on terms that are more favorable than the terms previously offered to CUMBERLAND without first offering to enter into an agreement with CUMBERLAND, to be negotiated during an additional thirty day period, such offer to be made on terms no less favorable than the terms being offered to the third Person. If CUMBERLAND does not enter into negotiations with BIONICHE within thirty (30) days following receipt of such notice, then BIONICHE shall be free to negotiate with third Persons with no further obligation to CUMBERLAND.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Subparagraph 5.6 (b) above, BIONICHE shall have no obligation to make any offer to CUMBERLAND with respect to any development, marketing or sale of Excluded Products in the Territory if it chooses to so develop, market or sell directly, rather than in association with any third Person.
(d) With respect to any product that contains the same active ingredient as the Drug Product for indications other than Excluded Products that BIONICHE may seek to develop (“Other Products”), BIONICHE shall provide notice to CUMBERLAND as set out in Subparagraph 5.6 (b) above, and the same procedures shall apply. Likewise, with respect to any indications other than currently-approved indications for the Drug Product that CUMBERLAND seeks to develop, CUMBERLAND shall provide notice to BIONICHE regarding the possibility of supply of said Drug Product to CUMBERLAND and the procedures described in Subparagraph 5.6 (b) above shall apply.
(e) If CUMBERLAND does not acquire rights to Excluded Products or to Other Products as described in Subparagraphs 5.6 (c) and (d) above, and CUMBERLAND establishes, through the dispute resolution process set forth in Paragraph 11.7, that sales by BIONICHE of said products have detrimentally impacted sales of the Drug Product then BIONICHE shall pay CUMBERLAND an amount equal to the lost profits so established by CUMBERLAND. CUMBERLAND shall bear the burden of establishing lost sales.
(f) Except in the event that BIONICHE fails to supply all Drug Product ordered within ninety (90) days of receipt of a Purchase Order in accordance with Paragraph 2.7, or in the event of Force Majeure, CUMBERLAND will order its entire requirement of the Drug Product for the Territory from BIONICHE, If CUMBERLAND notifies BIONICHE that it intends. to distribute the Drug Product in countries other than the United States and its territories, then the parties shall negotiate in good faith, for a period not to exceed one hundred twenty (120) days after CUMBERLAND provides such notice, to amend this agreement to expand the Territory hereunder; provided that if the parties fail to agree upon the terms of supply for an expanded Territory within such 120-day period, CUMBERLAND shall have no obligation to purchase requirements of Drug Products for such other countries from BIONICHE, but its obligations hereunder with respect to the United States and its territories shall remain in full force and effect.
(g) In the event of breach of this Paragraph 5.6, the parties shall have the right, in addition to other rights hereunder, to seek injunctive relief, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement.
5.7 Minimum Purchase Quantities: CUMBERLAND shall have no minimum purchase requirements for the first year following FDA approval of the Drug Product. The parties shall, no later than three (3) months before the end of the first year following FDA approval, negotiate in good faith to set on the minimum quantities applicable to the second to fifth years of commercial sale, which shall be incorporated into Schedule V and shall form part of this Agreement. The parties shall negotiate in good faith to set additional minimum purchase requirements for any extension of the Term of this Agreement under Paragraph 3.1. CUMBERLAND shall use its best efforts to achieve the minimum purchase requirements set forth in Schedule V of this Agreement for each format of Drug Product being sold in the Territory by CUMBERLAND. In the event CUMBERLAND is required to procure Drug Product from other sources in accordance with Paragraph 2.7, the minimum annual purchase obligation set out in Schedule V shall be decreased by the quantity BIONICHE failed to deliver hereunder.
