For purposes of clarity, (i) if the Exclusivity Period is extended pursuant to this paragraph, the terms and conditions of this letter agreement during each such Extended Exclusivity Period shall be the same as the terms and conditions in effect immediately prior to such extension and (ii) the aggregate Exclusivity Period including all Extended Exclusivity Periods shall not exceed [**] from the date of last signing below. In addition, [**] agrees to support USWM by maintaining sufficient manufacturing capabilities to ensure commercial supply to USWM of additional RLPs until the [**] of (i) [**] (under terms to be negotiated in good faith), or (ii) for so long as the [**] of [**] (as defined in the MOU) is delayed beyond [**] due to [**] related to [**], but no [**] than [**].
