To the extent the recall, market withdrawal or corrective action relates to Product Manufactured before and after the Effective Date, the responsibility for out-of-pocket costs associated therewith shall be equitably apportioned between the parties based on the relative amount of Product affected that was Manufactured before the Effective Date and the relative amount of Product affected that was Manufactured on or after the Effective Date.

(d) Notwithstanding Section 6.7(c) above, in the event of a recall, market withdrawal or other corrective action with respect to Product manufactured at Patheon’s Caguas or Manati facilities in Puerto Rico that results from the presence of 2,4,6-tribromoanisole, or TBA, Santarus and Depomed shall share equally all out-of-pocket costs (other than Product returns) associated with such recall, market withdrawal or other corrective action that are incurred by either party, including inventory write-offs and costs and expenses associated with product liability, as adjusted for any amounts or other consideration recovered from Third Party manufacturers or other Third Parties or insurance proceeds received.

Depomed shall place binding orders with Santarus for Santarus-Manufactured Samples, in a mutually agreeable format, to the same extent as Santarus is required to place binding orders for Santarus-Manufactured Samples with its Third Party suppliers.

(d) Depomed acknowledges and agrees that Santarus-Manufactured Samples will be delivered from the Third Party supplier site, and will be shipped according to the terms for delivery in the Assigned Manufacturing Agreement or successor agreement, and that title to and risk of loss with respect to Santarus-Manufactured Samples will pass to Depomed as set forth in the Assigned Manufacturing Agreement or successor agreement.

Section 7.5 Third Party Agreements

The parties acknowledge that Depomed has certain rights and is subject to certain obligations under the BLS Agreements, the Chargeback Agreements, the Government Rebate Agreements and, prior to assignment as provided in this Agreement, the Assigned Agreements, concerning rights to, or the Manufacture or Commercialization of, Products in the Territory (the “Third Party Agreements”). Depomed shall not amend, terminate or cause to be terminated any of the Third Party Agreements without the prior written consent of Santarus. Depomed shall not assign any of the Third Party Agreements in whole or in part, except in conjunction with a permitted assignment of this Agreement pursuant to Section 18.9, and shall not delegate any of its obligations under any of the Third Party Agreements without the prior written consent of Santarus.

Depomed shall not voluntarily terminate any of the Third Party Agreements. Depomed shall not waive or otherwise excuse the performance or nonperformance of any obligations by a Third Party under the Third Party Agreements that would result in a material reduction or other material limitation in the rights granted by Depomed to Santarus, without Santarus’ prior written consent. Depomed shall promptly notify Santarus upon receipt by Depomed of any notice or other correspondence from a Third Party of any actual or alleged breach under any Third Party Agreement. Santarus shall be permitted to take part in any communications with the applicable Third Party regarding any actual or alleged breach under a Third Party Agreement or other matter that could result in the termination of such agreement or any material reduction or other material limitation in Depomed’s rights thereunder to the extent such termination, reduction or limitation would be reasonably expected to adversely affect Santarus’ rights under this Agreement. At Santarus’ reasonable request, Depomed shall promptly exercise any rights or pursue any recourse it may have under the Third Party Agreements. In the event of any failure by a Third Party supplier to timely deliver and supply Product in accordance with the terms of the applicable supply agreement, assuming each party’s compliance with its obligations under this Agreement, each party’s liability to the other for such failure shall be limited to the recourse that such party receives, if any, from the Third Party supplier, and any such failure on the part of the Third Party supplier shall not be a breach or default of this Agreement by such party (except to the extent that any such failure by the Third Party supplier arises directly from such party’s failure to comply with its obligations, including paying amounts due, under the applicable Third Party supply agreement).

If, prior to or following the commencement of Product Promotion by the Depomed Sales Force, either party reasonably determines that the Prescriber Data fails to, or is likely to fail to, reasonably accurately reflect the portion of Net Sales attributable to prescriptions written by Professionals on the Depomed Physician List (whether as a result of Professionals opting out of the American Medical Association’s Physician Masterfile database or otherwise), the parties shall negotiate in good faith with respect to implementing a revised manner of measuring the portion of Net Sales attributable to prescriptions written by Professionals on the Depomed Physician List, and reflect any such modification in the definition of “Depomed Percentage” and the “Baseline Percentage.” The parties shall consider in their discussions any other customary manner of determining similar information as may arise in light of Professionals opting out of the American Medical Association’s Physician Masterfile database or otherwise.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY MATTERS

Section 12.1 Intellectual Property Prosecution and Maintenance

Depomed shall use commercially reasonable efforts to prosecute and maintain the Depomed intellectual property in the Territory related to any Product or its use, including the Depomed Patent Rights and the Depomed Trademarks (subject, in the case of the 1000mg Product, to BLS’s rights and Depomed’s obligations in respect of intellectual property under the BLS Agreements). Depomed shall make available to Santarus (or its designated counsel) copies of such patent application files and shall make available to Santarus (or its designated counsel) all office actions relating to any Product (or a proposed Generic Version thereof) wherein at least one (1) claim is directed to the Product (or a proposed Generic Version thereof) in those patent applications, and copies of material correspondence with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office relating to such patent applications to the extent they relate to the Product (or a proposed Generic Version thereof) or its use. Santarus shall have the right to comment upon the prosecution of

	*Confidential Information, indicated by [] has been omitted from this filing**
	*and filed separately with the Securities Exchange Commission.*

such patent applications (subject, in the case of the 1000mg Product, to BLS’s rights and Depomed’s obligations in respect of intellectual property under the BLS Agreements). Depomed shall, in good faith, consider such comments of Santarus. In addition, Depomed shall keep Santarus reasonably informed regarding material developments relating to the prosecution, maintenance or enforcement of Depomed’s intellectual property rights related to any Product inside or outside the Territory that would reasonably be expected to have a material impact on Depomed’s intellectual property rights related to the Product in the Territory.

Section 12.2 Infringement

(a) If either party shall learn of a claim or assertion that the manufacture, use or sale of a Product in the Territory infringes or otherwise violates the intellectual property rights of any Third Party or that any Third Party violates the intellectual property rights owned or Controlled by (i) Depomed in a Product and the Depomed Trademarks in the Territory or (ii) Santarus in the Santarus Trademarks, then the party becoming so informed shall promptly, but in all events within fifteen (15) days thereof, notify the other party to this Agreement of the claim or assertion. In the event either party receives a notice under Paragraph IV of the U.S. Federal Drug Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act of 1984, as amended, also known as the Hatch-Waxman Act, with respect to any Product, such party shall provide the other party with written notice of such Paragraph IV notice within two (2) business days (each, a “Paragraph IV Notice”).

(b) If warranted in the opinion of Depomed, after consultation with Santarus, Depomed shall have the right to take such legal action (“Enforcement Action”) as is advisable in Depomed’s opinion to restrain infringement of such Depomed Patent Rights related to any Product or the Depomed Trademarks in the Territory (subject, in the case of the 1000mg Product, to BLS’s rights and Depomed’s obligations with respect to the intellectual property under the BLS Agreements). Depomed will have the right to institute the Enforcement Action in its own name using counsel of its choice and, except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, with the right to control the course of such Enforcement Action. Santarus shall cooperate fully with, and as reasonably requested by, Depomed in any Enforcement Action, and Depomed shall reimburse Santarus for its out-of-pocket expenses incurred in providing such cooperation. Santarus may be represented by counsel of its own selection at its own expense in any Enforcement Action. Depomed shall keep Santarus reasonably informed regarding material developments relating to any Enforcement Action (including by making its outside counsel available to participate in periodic status calls); provided, however, that Depomed shall obtain Santarus’ consent (which Santarus will not unreasonably withhold) in advance of (i) the grant of any license, covenant not to sue, right of reference, right of supply, other intellectual property right or other settlement in any Enforcement Action, and (ii) filing with the court or serving on any Third Party any pleadings (e.g., briefs, discovery requests and/or responses, expert reports, court filings and stipulations), the selection and engagement of expert witnesses, and any written or electronic correspondence with the opposing party or its counsel concerning substantive issues in the litigation, including positions taken with respect to fact, expert opinions and claim construction. If Depomed elects in writing not to bring or defend an Enforcement Action with respect to any Product in the Territory within ninety (90) days following a notification pursuant to Section 12.2(a) (provided that in the case of a Paragraph IV Notice, Depomed shall confirm in

	*Confidential Information, indicated by [] has been omitted from this filing**
	*and filed separately with the Securities Exchange Commission.*

writing its election to bring such Enforcement Action no later than twenty (20) days following receipt of the Paragraph IV Notice), or if Depomed fails to bring or defend an Enforcement Action or take other reasonable action to protect the Depomed Patent Rights or the Depomed Trademarks in the Territory from such infringement, or to abate such infringement, then, subject to the terms and conditions of the BLS Manufacturing Transfer Agreement or other in-license agreement with respect to applicable Depomed Patent Rights licensed from a Third Party, if any, then, except as set forth in 0, Santarus shall have the right, at its sole discretion, to institute an Enforcement Action in its own name using counsel of its choice, at its own expense, and, except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, with the right to control the course of such Enforcement Action (the “Santarus Step-In Rights”). Depomed shall cooperate fully with, and as reasonably requested by, Santarus in any such Enforcement Action, including joining such Enforcement Action if necessary to maintain the Enforcement Action, and Santarus shall reimburse Depomed for its out-of-pocket expenses incurred in providing such cooperation. Depomed shall have the right to join and participate in the Enforcement Action whether or not such joinder is requested by Santarus. Santarus shall keep Depomed reasonably informed regarding material developments relating to any such Enforcement Action (including by making its outside counsel available to participate in periodic status calls); provided, however, that Santarus shall obtain Depomed’s consent (which Depomed will not unreasonably withhold) in advance of (i) the grant of any license, covenant not to sue, right of reference, right of supply, other intellectual property right or other settlement in any Enforcement Action, and (ii) filing with the court or serving on any Third Party any pleadings (e.g., briefs, discovery requests and/or responses, expert reports, court filings and stipulations), the selection and engagement of expert witnesses, and any written or electronic correspondence with the opposing party or its counsel concerning substantive issues in the litigation, including positions taken with respect to fact, expert opinions and claim construction. Depomed may be represented by counsel of its own selection at its own expense in any Enforcement Action brought by Santarus pursuant to the Santarus Step-In Rights. Any recovery received by a party as a result of any Enforcement Action shall be used first to reimburse the parties for their costs and expenses (including attorneys’ and professional fees) incurred in connection with such Enforcement Action (and not previously reimbursed, including any reimbursement made or required to be made to Depomed by BLS under the BLS Agreements or by any other licensor of the applicable Depomed Patent Rights or Depomed Trademarks under the terms of the respective in-license agreement, if any). Of any remaining amounts, the amount (if any) which is required to be paid to BLS pursuant to the BLS Agreements or any other licensors of the applicable Depomed Patent Rights or Depomed Trademarks under the terms of the respective in-license agreement, if any, shall then be paid to BLS or such other licensor, if any, and any amounts remaining thereafter shall be shared [***] to Santarus and [***] to Depomed.

(c) The parties acknowledge that as of the Effective Date, Depomed has ongoing patent infringement litigation with respect to Products against each of Sun Pharmaceutical Industries, Inc. (and Sun Pharma Global FZE and Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd.) and Lupin Limited (and its subsidiary Lupin Pharmaceuticals Inc.) (the “Existing Infringement Cases”). Notwithstanding Section 12.2(b): (i) Santarus shall have the right upon written notice to Depomed to lead settlement negotiations for either or both of the Existing Infringement Cases within mutually agreed settlement parameters; (ii) Santarus shall be required to reimburse Depomed for seventy percent (70%) of its out-of-pocket costs paid for periods after

	*Confidential Information, indicated by [] has been omitted from this filing**
	*and filed separately with the Securities Exchange Commission.*

the Effective Date in pursuing the Existing Infringement Cases; and (iii) Depomed shall be required to reimburse Santarus for thirty percent (30%) of its out-of-pocket costs paid for periods after the Effective Date in pursuing the Existing Infringement Cases; in each case, including costs and legal fees related to discovery requests. Prior to the Effective Date, Depomed has provided to Santarus a budget for Depomed’s out-of-pocket costs relating to the conduct of the Existing Infringement Cases. Santarus’ budget for out-of-pocket costs relating to the conduct of the Existing Infringement Cases shall be consistent with the amounts Depomed has negotiated for comparable activities in connection with the Existing Infringement Cases, and Santarus shall use commercially reasonable efforts to negotiate similar arrangements. The parties agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to conduct the Existing Infringement Cases within the budgets described above. If a party believes that it will not be able to conduct the Existing Infringement Cases within such budget, such party shall promptly notify the other party thereof, and the parties shall confer in good faith regarding the handling of costs outside of such budget and use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize such excess costs. Any modifications to the budgets shall be agreed upon in advance by the parties. Any other ANDA litigation arising after the Effective Date shall be subject to the preceding provisions of this Section 12.2(c), mutatis mutandis.

(d) If warranted in the opinion of Santarus, Santarus shall take such legal action as is advisable in Santarus’ opinion to restrain such infringement of the Santarus Trademarks. Depomed shall cooperate fully with, and as requested by, Santarus in Santarus’ attempt to restrain such infringement, and Santarus shall reimburse Depomed for its out-of-pocket expenses incurred in providing such cooperation. Depomed may be represented by counsel of its own selection at its own expense in any suit or proceeding brought to restrain such infringement, but Santarus shall have the right to control the suit or proceeding.

(b) Indemnification by Depomed. Subject to the parties’ agreement to equally share costs relating to recalls related to TBA and associated Third Party claims pursuant to Section 6.7(d), Depomed hereby agrees to save, defend, indemnify and hold harmless Santarus, its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, consultants and agents (the “Santarus Indemnitees”), from and against any and all Losses to which any Santarus Indemnitee may become subject as a result of any claim, demand, action or other proceeding by any Third Party to the extent such Losses arise directly or indirectly out of: (a) the development, Manufacture, use, handling, storage or Commercialization of Products or Combination Products by or on behalf of Depomed or any of its Affiliates or Third Party licensees; or (b) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Depomed Indemnitee; (c) the breach by Depomed of any warranty, representation, covenant or agreement made by it in this Agreement; or (d) any claim made by any Third Party that the manufacture, use or sale of the Products prior to the Effective Date infringed or misappropriated the patent, trademark, or other intellectual property rights of such Third Party, except with respect to any claim relating to the Santarus Trademarks; except, in each case, to the extent such Losses result from (1) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Santarus Indemnitee, (2) the breach by Santarus of any warranty, representation, covenant or agreement made by it in this Agreement or (3) the Manufacture of any Product by or on behalf of Santarus after the Effective Date.

(c) Procedure. In the event a Party seeks indemnification under Section 13.1(a) or Section 13.1(b), it shall inform the other party (the “Indemnifying Party”) of a claim as soon as reasonably practicable after such party (the “Indemnified Party”) receives notice of the claim (it being understood and agreed, however, that the failure by an Indemnified Party to give notice of a claim as provided in this Section 13.1(c) shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligation under this Agreement except and only to the extent that such Indemnifying Party is actually damaged as a result of such failure to give notice), shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume direction and control of the defense of the claim (including the right to settle the claim solely for monetary consideration), and shall cooperate as requested (at the expense of the Indemnifying Party) in the defense of the claim.

The provisions of this Section 15.1 shall not apply to, and Depomed shall have no obligation to Santarus under this

Section 18.2 Severability

In the event that any of the provisions or a portion of any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction or a governmental authority, such provision or portion of provision will be construed and enforced as if it had been narrowly drawn so as not to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, and the validity, legality, and enforceability of the enforceable portion of any such provision and the remaining provisions will not be adversely affected thereby.

Section 18.6 Waiver

The failure of either party to enforce or to exercise, at any time or for any period of time, any term of or any right arising pursuant to this Agreement does not constitute, and will not be construed as, a waiver of such term or right, and will in no way affect that party’s right later to enforce or exercise such term or right.

Section 18.7 Force Majeure

In the event of any failure or delay in the performance by a party of any provision of this Agreement due to acts beyond the reasonable control of such party (such as, for example, fire, explosion, strike or other difficulty with workmen, shortage of transportation equipment, accident, act of God, declared or undeclared wars, acts of terrorism, or compliance with or other action taken to carry out the intent or purpose of any law or regulation, but not any failure of such party to perform under a Third Party Agreement) (a “Force Majeure Event”), then such party shall have such additional time to perform as shall be reasonably necessary under the circumstances. In the event of such failure or delay, the affected party will use its diligent efforts, consistent with sound business judgment and to the extent permitted by law, to correct

	*Confidential Information, indicated by [] has been omitted from this filing**
	*and filed separately with the Securities Exchange Commission.*

such failure or delay as expeditiously as possible. In the event that a party is unable to perform by a reason described in this Section 18.7, its obligation to perform under the affected provision of this Agreement shall be suspended during such time of nonperformance.

Neither party shall be liable hereunder to the other party nor shall be in breach for failure to perform its obligations caused by a Force Majeure Event. In the case of any such event, the affected party shall promptly, but in no event later than ten (10) days of its occurrence, notify the other party stating the nature of the condition, its anticipated duration and any action being taken to avoid or minimize its effect. Furthermore, the affected party shall keep the other party informed of the efforts to resume performance. After sixty (60) days of such inability to perform, the parties agree to meet and in good faith discuss how to proceed. In the event that the affected party is prevented from performing its obligations pursuant to this Section 18.7 for a period of six (6) months, the other party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.4(b).

Section 18.8 Successors and Assigns

Subject to Section 18.9, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted under this Agreement.

Section 18.9 Assignment

This Agreement and the rights granted herein shall not be assignable (or otherwise transferred) by either party hereto without the prior written consent of the other party. Any attempted assignment without consent shall be void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a party may transfer, assign or delegate its rights and obligations under this Agreement without consent to (a) an Affiliate reasonably capable of performing such party’s obligations under this Agreement or (b) a successor to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the assigning party, whether by sale, merger, consolidation, acquisition, transfer, operation of law or otherwise. In connection with any assignment, or Subcontracting pursuant to which a Third Party Sales Representative is engaged to Promote the Products, of this Agreement or any of the rights granted herein pursuant to this Section 18.9, the assignor, or party Subcontracting to another, shall ensure that the assignee, or Subcontractor, represents and warrants the matters set forth in Section 11.1(i) and (j) (in substantially the same form as set forth in Section 11.1(i) and (j)), where Depomed (or one of its successors or assigns) is the assignor or Subcontracting party, or Section 11.2(h) and (i) (in substantially the same form as set forth in Section 11.2(h) and (i)), where Santarus (or one of its successors or assigns) is the assignor or Subcontracting party. In connection with any Subcontracting pursuant to which a Third Party will manufacture the Products, the party Subcontracting to another shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Subcontractor to represent and warrant the matters set forth in Section 11.1(j) and (k) (in substantially the same form as set forth in Section 11.1(j) and (k)). Neither party shall knowingly engage any Third Party appearing on the FDA’s debarment list or the list of excluded individuals/entities of the Office of Inspector General of the Department of Health and Human Services to perform, or assist such party in the performance of, its obligations under this Agreement, and each party shall review each such list prior to engaging any such Third Party.

	*Confidential Information, indicated by [] has been omitted from this filing**
	*and filed separately with the Securities Exchange Commission.*

Section 18.10 Construction

The parties acknowledge and agree that: (a) each party and its representatives have reviewed and negotiated the terms and provisions of this Agreement and have contributed to its revision; and (b) the terms and provisions of this Agreement will be construed fairly as to each party hereto and not in favor of or against either party regardless of which party was generally responsible for the preparation or drafting of this Agreement. Unless the context of this Agreement otherwise requires: (i) words of any gender include each other gender; (ii) words using the singular or plural number also include the plural or singular number, respectively; (iii) the terms “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby,” and derivative or similar words refer to this entire Agreement; (iv) the terms “Article,” “Section,” “Exhibit,” “Schedule,” or “clause” refer to the specified Article, Section, Exhibit, Schedule, or clause of this Agreement; (v) “or” is disjunctive but not necessarily exclusive; and (vi) the term “including” or “includes” means “including without limitation” or “includes without limitation.” Whenever this Agreement refers to a number of days, such number shall refer to calendar days unless business days are specified.

Section 18.11 Consents to Assignment

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, to the extent that the transfer or assignment by Depomed of any Assigned Agreement as set forth herein would require any Third Party authorizations, approvals, consents or waivers (collectively, the “Consent”), then Depomed’s obligation to transfer or assign such Assigned Agreement shall be contingent upon Depomed’s receipt of such Consent. The parties shall cooperate to obtain promptly such Consent. Pending receipt of any such Consent, the parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to implement an alternative arrangement to permit Santarus to receive substantially similar rights and for Santarus to assume substantially similar obligations under any such Assigned Agreement as if such impediment to assignment or transfer did not exist. Depomed shall not amend, modify or terminate any Assigned Agreement that is to be assigned to Santarus under this Agreement without Santarus’ prior written consent.

Section 18.12 Governing Law

This Agreement will be construed under and in accordance with, and governed in all respects by, the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflicts of law principles.

Section 18.13 Equitable Relief

Each party acknowledges that a breach by it of the provisions of this Agreement may not reasonably or adequately be compensated in damages in an action at law and that such a breach may cause the other party irreparable injury and damage. By reason thereof, each party agrees that the other party is entitled to seek, in addition to any other remedies it may have under this Agreement or otherwise, preliminary and permanent injunctive and other equitable relief to prevent or curtail any breach of this Agreement by the other party; provided, however, that no specification in this Agreement of a specific legal or equitable remedy will be construed as a waiver or prohibition against the pursuing of other legal or equitable remedies in the event of such a breach. Each party agrees that the existence of any claim, demand, or cause of action of it against the other party, whether predicated upon this Agreement, or otherwise, will not constitute

	*Confidential Information, indicated by [] has been omitted from this filing**
	*and filed separately with the Securities Exchange Commission.*

a defense to the enforcement by the other party, or its successors or assigns, of the covenants contained in this Agreement.

Section 18.14 Relationship Between Parties

The parties hereto are acting and performing as independent contractors, and nothing in this Agreement creates the relationship of partnership, joint venture, sales agency, or principal and agent. Neither party is the agent of the other, and neither party may hold itself out as such to any other party.

Section 18.15 Cooperation

Depomed shall (a) prepare the financial statements of the business related to the manufacturing and sale of the Products for the three year period ended December 31, 2010 and (b) prepare interim financial statements for the period prior to the Effective Date, in each case to the extent required by applicable Legal Requirements to be included in Santarus’ reports and filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including in connection with the acquisition of a “significant business” pursuant to Regulation S-X of the SEC. Depomed shall commence the preparation of the financial statements promptly after the Effective Date and will use efforts similar to those used in connection with its own audited financial statements to complete such financial statements as promptly as possible to enable Santarus to comply with applicable Legal Requirements with respect to reports and filings with the SEC. Santarus shall engage Ernst & Young LLP, its independent auditors, at Santarus’ sole cost and expense, to audit the financial statements of the business for the three year period ended December 31, 2010 and to render an opinion on such financial statements. Depomed will provide, if required by Santarus’ independent auditors, executed representation letters, which representation letters are required to enable independent auditors to render an opinion on audited financial statements. Depomed shall request, and take all reasonable steps necessary to encourage, its auditors to cooperate with Santarus and provide all necessary consents required by the SEC and customary “comfort letters” in connection with securities offerings of Santarus and with its preparation of any financial statements or other reports pursuant to Legal Requirements, in each case the reasonable fees and expenses of Depomed’s auditors shall be at Santarus’ sole cost and expense. Santarus will consider in good faith with its independent auditors whether to discuss with the SEC the Legal Requirements with respect to the inclusion of such financial statements in Santarus’ reports and filings.
