| Year 2 – 5 of supply with new inclusion bodies |
€6.0 million per year | €1.0 million per year | ||
| Year 6-8 of supply with new inclusion bodies |
€8.0 million per year | €500,000 per year | ||
| Year 9 of supply with new inclusion bodies |
€4.4 million per year | €500,000 |
Prior to the Seventh Amendment, the Company was committed to purchase commitments totaling €58.7 million in the aggregate over calendar years 2024-27.
The parties also agreed to extend the term of the Supply Agreement until the later of (a) December 31, 2035 or (b) until the completion of all purchase commitments.

RECITALS
WHEREAS, MannKind and Amphastar entered into the Agreement pursuant to which Amphastar is to manufacture and supply the Product to MannKind, and MannKind is to purchase certain minimum quantities of the Product; and
WHEREAS MannKind and Amphastar have determined it to be mutually beneficial to amend the Agreement as set forth herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, MannKind and Amphastar hereby agree to amend the Agreement as follows:
1. Definitions. Unless otherwise defined herein, each of the capitalized terms used in this Seventh Amendment shall have the definition and meaning ascribed to it in the Agreement.
2. The definitions in Section 1 of the Agreement are amended by adding the following provisions at the end of Section 1 and not in alphabetical order:
2.1. New Section 1.16 is added as follows: “Capacity Fee” means the amount MannKind will pay to Amphastar France Pharmaceuticals (“AFP”) every calendar quarter. The “Capacity Fee” is for a full calendar quarter, including the calendar quarter that MannKind receives FDA approval for MannKind to use the Product produced with inclusion bodies that are manufactured by Amphastar. For example, if FDA approval is on Feb. 15, 2026, then the full Capacity Fee for the first calendar quarter is due in accordance with the table in Section 6.1, following which Year 1 would start on April 1, 2026.
2.2. New Section 1.17 is added as follows: “Year 1” means the year that starts on the first day of the calendar quarter after MannKind receives FDA approval to use the Product produced with inclusion bodies that are manufactured by Amphastar. For example, if such FDA approval is on February 15, then Year 1 will commence on the subsequent April 1 and will end on March 31 of the following year. Year 2, 3, and so on, will be 12-month periods that commence on each anniversary of Year 1.
