Amylin’s execution, delivery and performance of each of the Loan Documents do not violate any provision of Amylin’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, each as amended as of the date hereof (copies of which have been filed with Amylin’s SEC Filings), any material agreements to which Amylin is a party or by which it is bound, any provision of any order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award to which Amylin is a party or by which it is bound, or, to Amylin’s knowledge, any law, rule or regulation currently in effect having applicability to Amylin, in each case to the extent such violation could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

5.7    Litigation. Except and to the extent disclosed to Lilly’s Deputy General Counsel by Amylin’s Deputy General Counsel or in Amylin’s SEC Filings, there is no action, litigation or proceeding pending or threatened against or involving Amylin in any court or before or by any agency or regulatory body which would reasonably be expected to result in a material judgment or liability against Amylin or which would materially and adversely affect (i) any material intellectual property of Amylin, (ii) any material portion of Amylin’s assets, (iii) the income of Amylin, or (iv) the right of Amylin to carry on its businesses as now conducted or as intended to be conducted.

5.8    Payment of Taxes. Amylin has filed all tax returns which were required to be filed by it prior to and as of the date of this Loan Agreement. Amylin has paid all taxes and assessments which to Amylin’s knowledge are payable by it, to the extent that the same have become due and payable and before they became delinquent, except for any taxes or assessments that are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings properly instituted and diligently conducted. Amylin has not been informed in writing of any proposed material tax assessment against Amylin or any of its properties for which adequate provision has not been made on its books.

5.9    Compliance. Amylin is in compliance with and in conformity to all laws, ordinances, rules, regulations and all other legal requirements, the violation of which would have a material, adverse effect on its businesses, financial condition or properties.

5.11    Full Disclosure. None of the representations or warranties furnished by Amylin to Lilly in connection with any of the Loan Documents contains or will contain any untrue statement or omits or will omit a material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein, in light of the circumstances when made, not misleading. All representations and warranties made by Amylin under or in connection with any of the Loan Documents shall survive the Effective Date, notwithstanding any investigation made by Lilly or on Lilly’s behalf.
