Whether or not BSMD elects to accept a firm order for a quantity of Microspheres in excess of the [****]% Forecast, if BSMD is unable to supply [****] percent ([****]%) of Inamed's firm orders of the Microspheres, up to the [****]% Forecast, for more than [****] days, Inamed shall have the right to assume the manufacture of its requirement of Microspheres in accordance with Section 2.9 below. 2.6 Orders; Forecasts. At least [****] days prior to the start of each calendar quarter, Inamed shall provide BSMD with a firm purchase order for the total amount of the Microspheres to be ordered for shipment during each month of such quarter and an estimate of its Microspheres requirements for each of the next three (3) quarters (each such estimate updating previous estimates and adding an estimate for the next succeeding quarter). Each firm quarterly purchase order will be no less than [****] percent ([****]%) of the preceding quarter's estimate for such quarter. In addition, at such time as such firm quarterly purchase order is submitted, each estimate for the next succeeding quarter (i.e., the quarter immediately after the quarter for which such firm purchase order is submitted) shall be within [****] percent ([****]%) of the immediately preceding estimate for such quarter, and each estimate for the second quarter thereafter shall be within [****] percent ([****]%) of the immediately preceding estimate for such quarter. 2.7 Conformance to Specifications. BSMD shall deliver a certificate of analysis with each lot of Microspheres specifying the results of analysis to show conformance with the applicable Microspheres Specifications. Each such lot shall be deemed accepted by Inamed unless BSMD receives written notice of rejection of the lot (due to the failure of Microspheres to comply with the Microspheres Specifications as of the time the lot was received by Inamed) within [****] days after Inamed's receipt of the Microspheres. If BSMD does not agree with Inamed that the supplied lot fails to conform to the Microspheres Specifications, the matter may be submitted to an independent laboratory acceptable to both parties in order to resolve the discrepancy in the analysis of the Microspheres rejected. The cost of assay by the independent laboratory shall be borne by the party whose analysis was in error. 2.8 Remedy for Nonconforming Microspheres. If Inamed considers any BSMD shipment not to conform to the applicable Microspheres Specifications, Inamed shall notify BSMD as provided in Section 2.7 and provide BSMD with the relevant analysis. BSMD'S SOLE OBLIGATION AND INAMED'S EXCLUSIVE REMEDY - 5 - FOR ANY SUCH NONCONFORMITY SHALL BE, AT BSMD'S OPTION, EITHER: (a) BSMD shall at its own expense accept return of any shipment not accepted, or else reimburse Inamed for the reasonable cost of disposal or destruction; or (b) BSMD shall use commercially reasonable efforts to replace the non-conforming shipment with conforming Microspheres within [****] days of Inamed's notice of nonconformity. For purposes hereof, replacement may include reprocessing of the Microspheres, so long as such reprocessing is mutually agreed upon by the parties and conforms to applicable law and regulation, including FDA current Good Manufacturing Practices. 2.9 Remedy for Interruption of Supply. If for any reason BSMD fails to supply Inamed with [****] percent ([****]%) of Inamed's firm orders of the Microspheres, up to the [****]% Forecast, for more than [****] days, BSMD shall, AS INAMED'S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR ANY FAILURE TO SUPPLY MICROSPHERES, grant Inamed an immediately-effective, [****] license to manufacture Microspheres and make knowledgeable personnel reasonably available, at BSMD's expense, to consult with Inamed, all to the extent necessary to enable Inamed to manufacture Microspheres that would otherwise have been supplied by BSMD hereunder. Any such license shall be subject to a royalty equal to [****] percent ([****]%) of Net Sales (which shall be paid in lieu of the Initial Transfer Price and the Supplemental Transfer Price payments) and shall have such other terms and conditions as shall be set forth in the form of manufacturing license agreement to be mutually agreed upon by the parties, acting in good faith. Inamed acknowledges that, in doing the foregoing, BSMD will not be providing a "turnkey" operation. Rather, BSMD will only be required to make reasonably available to Inamed the best standard of knowledge and information then available to BSMD and actually used in its manufacture of Microspheres. 2.10 Regulatory Matters. On reasonable notice and during normal business hours, BSMD shall allow an Inamed representative and one or more representatives of a Notified Body, of the FDA and/or of any other health or medical device regulatory agency access to the manufacturing, filling, packaging, labeling, warehousing, storage and quality control equipment and facilities utilized with respect to Microspheres being produced pursuant to this Agreement, and to all applicable records relating to manufacturing, filling, labeling, warehousing, storage, packaging, and quality control of Microspheres being produced pursuant to this Agreement.

Any such license shall be subject to a royalty equal to [****] percent ([****]%) of Net Sales (which shall be paid in lieu of the Initial Transfer Price and the Supplemental Transfer Price set forth in Article III hereof) and shall have such other terms and conditions as shall be set forth in a Manufacturing License Agreement (the "Manufacturing License Agreement"), the terms and conditions of which shall be negotiated in good faith by the parties and shall be attached as Exhibit D to this Agreement on or before [****]. The Manufacturing License Agreement shall be immediately effective without further action by BSMD or Inamed upon notice by Inamed, given within the [****] period after BSMD gives notice of its intention to cease manufacturing Microspheres, hat Inamed intends to manufacture the Microspheres for use in the Field. ARTICLE III SUPPLEMENTAL TRANSFER PRICE 3.1 Payment Obligation. In addition to the Initial Transfer Price, Inamed shall pay to BSMD a Supplemental Transfer Price equal to the following percentages of the Net Sales of the Products sold by Inamed and its Affiliates: (a) [****] ([****]%) of Net Sales if Inamed's Gross Margin is equal to or less than [****] ([****]%); (b) [****] ([****]%) of Net Sales if Inamed's Gross Margin is greater than [****] percent ([****]%) but less than [****] ([****]%); and (c) [****] ([****]%) of Net Sales if Inamed's Gross Margin is equal to or greater than [****] ([****]%). 3.2 Payment Period. The Supplemental Transfer Price payment obligation described in Section 3.1 above shall commence on the Effective Date and shall continue for the term of the Agreement, subject to the provisions of Section 2.9 and 2.11. 3.3 Quarterly Reports and Payments.

Payment to BSMD of all amounts due on such estimated Net Sales shall accompany such report. Not later than [****] days after the end of each calendar quarter, Inamed shall deliver to BSMD a definitive quarterly statement, setting forth, on a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction basis, during the preceding calendar quarter as to: (a) the aggregate Net Sales received by Inamed or its Affiliates for such Products; (b) Inamed's Gross Margin on such Net Sales; and (c) the Supplemental Transfer Price, if any, payable on such Net Sales pursuant to this provision, and shall tender with such definitive quarterly statement any additional payment due to BSMD on Net Sales in such quarter in excess of the previously-delivered payment of amounts due on estimated Net Sales. - 7 - 3.4 Method of Payment, Interest on Overdue Amounts; No Set-Offs. All payments hereunder shall be made by check or wire transfer to such bank and account as BSMD may from time to time designate in writing. All payments shall be made in U.S. Dollars. Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a day that banks are open for business in Boston, Massachusetts (a "Business Day"), such payment shall be made on the immediately succeeding Business Day. Payments hereunder shall be considered to be made as of the day on which they are received at BSMD's designated bank. All payments due hereunder but not paid on or before [****] days after the due date shall bear interest (in U.S. Dollars) at the rate which is the lesser of: (i) [****] per cent ([****]%) per month or (ii) the maximum lawful interest rate permitted under applicable law. Such interest shall accrue on the balance of unpaid amounts from time to time outstanding from the date on which portions of such amounts become due and owing until payment thereof in full. No part of any amount payable to BSMD hereunder may be reduced due to any counterclaim, set-off, adjustment or other right which Inamed might have against BSMD, any other party or otherwise. Calculations and determination of amounts payable hereunder shall be made using GAAP. 3.5 Foreign Exchange Conversions. If any Net Sales are stated in a currency other than U.S. Dollars, then, for the purpose of calculating the amount due to BSMD hereunder, such Net Sales shall be converted into U.S. Dollars at the exchange rate between those two currencies which is equal to the average of the exchange rate most recently quoted in The Wall Street Journal in New York as of the first and last business day of the month for which such amounts are being paid (or such other method, utilizing publicly available sources, as Inamed may from time to time generally utilize in its currency accounting procedures, consistent with GAAP, in which case Inamed shall promptly notify BSMD of such change). If no such exchange rate has been quoted in The Wall Street Journal in New York at any time during the twelve (12) month period preceding the date on which such amount becomes due to BSMD (or such other publicly available source as Inamed may from time to time designate), such Net Sales shall be deemed to be equal to the Net Sales for such Product most recently charged by Inamed in U.S. Dollars. 3.6 Right to Audit. Inamed agrees to make and keep full and accurate books and records in sufficient detail to enable amounts payable to BSMD hereunder to be determined. BSMD shall have the right to appoint an independent accounting firm ("Independent Auditor"), to make a special audit of the books and records of Inamed that pertain to the calculation of Net Sales and Gross Margin. The Independent Auditor shall treat as confidential all information obtained in such audit and shall not disclose the same to BSMD or others, except that the Independent Auditor may disclose to BSMD such information as may pertain to the calculation of amounts due hereunder. On [****] days' prior written notice to Inamed, but no more than once during any calendar year (unless BSMD, in good faith, has a concern about specific inaccuracy, in which case more than once per year), the Independent Auditor shall have full access to the books and records of Inamed necessary to confirm the amounts which are due to BSMD under this Agreement, and such Independent Auditor shall have the right to make copies therefrom at Inamed's expense. The Independent Auditor shall have such access during normal business hours. Prompt adjustment shall be made to reflect the results of such audit. If it is determined following such audit that the amount of Net Sales or Gross Margin for the period covered by such audit was understated by Inamed by at least [****] percent ([****]%), then Inamed shall reimburse BSMD for the reasonable out-of-pocket costs of such audit incurred by BSMD within [****] days after Inamed's demand therefor, - 8 - along with the shortfall of Supplemental Transfer Price payments, and with interest on the shortfall amount from the date originally due to the date of payment at the rate which is the lesser of: (i) [****] per cent ([****]%) per month and (ii) the maximum lawful interest rate permitted under applicable law. 3.7 Responsibility for Taxes. Taxes now or hereafter imposed with respect to the transactions contemplated hereunder (with the exception of income taxes or other taxes imposed upon BSMD and measured by the gross or net income of BSMD) shall be the responsibility of Inamed, and, if paid or required to be paid by BSMD, the amount thereof shall be added to and become a part of the amounts payable by Inamed hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Inamed is required to withhold taxes from any amount payable by Inamed hereunder, then Inamed shall pay to BSMD an additional amount as may be necessary so that BSMD will receive, after deduction of such withholding tax, the amount which BSMD would have received in the absence of such withholding tax. ARTICLE IV UP-FRONT PAYMENTS AND MILESTONES 4.1 Up-front Payments. In addition to all other amounts payable to BSMD hereunder, Inamed shall pay to BSMD by wire transfer: (i) [****] Dollars ($[****]) within [****] ([****]) days after the execution of this Agreement; and (ii) an additional [****] Dollars ($[****]) on [****]. 4.2 Milestones.

In the course of performance under this Agreement or during the discussions leading thereto, a party may disclose, or may have disclosed, to the other confidential information belonging to such party in - 13 - writing, orally or by demonstration or sample, which information is marked or stated in writing to be "confidential" or "trade secret" information, or where the circumstances of the disclosure and/or the nature of the information otherwise reasonably give notice of the confidential character of the information. All such confidential information of a party shall be maintained in confidence by the other and will not be used by the other party for any purpose except as authorized hereunder. Each party shall exercise, and shall cause its Affiliates, employees, agents and consultants to exercise, a reasonable degree of care and at least the same degree of care as it uses to protect its own confidential information of similar nature to preserve the confidentiality of such information of the other party.

Neither party shall make any public announcement or other publication regarding this Agreement (whether as to the existence or terms hereof) without the prior, written consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit any disclosure which is required by any applicable law or by any competent governmental authority or to any prospective lender or investor as part of its due diligence investigations, so long as such lender or investor has entered into a written confidentiality agreement with respect to the existence and terms of this Agreement. - 14 - ARTICLE IX DISPUTE RESOLUTION 9.1 Good Faith Negotiation. The parties agree that, upon written notice of a dispute under this Agreement, they will attempt for [****] days to resolve that dispute by negotiation. In the event a dispute cannot be resolved by good faith negotiation, either party may commence arbitration proceedings as specified in Section 9.2 below. 9.2 Arbitration. Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the breach, termination or invalidity thereof, shall be finally settled by binding arbitration conducted in the English language in Boston, Massachusetts if initiated by Inamed or in Los Angeles, California if initiated by BSMD, under the commercial arbitration rules then in effect of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"). Each party shall appoint an arbitrator within [****] days after the initiation of the arbitration, and the two arbitrators so appointed shall jointly appoint a third arbitrator listed on AAA's approved list of arbitrators; provided, however, that if they cannot agree within [****] days after the second party-appointed arbitrator is appointed (or if one party refuses to appoint an arbitrator within [****] days after the initiation of the arbitration), then this third arbitrator shall be appointed by the President of the AAA from the list of AAA's approved arbitrators within [****] days after the relevant time period. The arbitrators may proceed to an award notwithstanding the failure of the other party to participate in the proceedings. Discovery shall be limited to the mutual exchange of documents relevant to the dispute, controversy or claim. Depositions shall not be permitted unless agreed to by both parties. The arbitrators shall be authorized to grant interim relief, including relief to prevent the destruction of goods or documents involved on the dispute, protect trade secrets and provide for security for a prospective monetary award. In no event shall punitive damages be assessed against either party. The prevailing party shall be entitled to an award of reasonable attorney fees incurred in connection with the arbitration in such amount as may be determined by the arbitrators. The award of the arbitrators shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the parties and shall be enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction, subject only to revocation on grounds of fraud, manifest disregard of law or clear bias on the part of the arbitrators. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section to the contrary, each party shall have the right to institute judicial proceedings against the other party or anyone acting by, through or under such other party, in order to enforce the instituting party's rights hereunder through reformation of contract, specific performance, injunction or similar equitable relief. 9.3 Remedies. The demand for one remedy shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver or estoppel with regards to any or all other available remedies for the specific breach or default in question. 9.4 Attorney's Fees. In the event it is necessary to file suit seeking reformation of contract, specific performance, injunction or similar equitable relief, the court shall award the prevailing party its damages, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees. - 15 - ARTICLE X GENERAL 10.1 Notices.

Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement should be prohibited or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement. 10.4 Headings.
