Section 9.02 Acquisition of Ownership Interest in a Covered Enterprise. Section 9.01 hereof shall in no event be deemed to prevent or restrict or apply to the acquisition by a Party or its Affiliates (the “Acquisition Party”, with the remaining Party being the “Non-Acquisition Party”) of an ownership interest (regardless of whether such interest is a minority interest, a majority interest or a controlling interest) in a Covered Enterprise and/or to the exercise of corresponding operational, management or control rights with respect to such Covered Enterprise, except that if at any time following the first anniversary of the acquisition by the Acquisition Party of ownership interests representing in the aggregate more than [*] of the total equity in a Covered Enterprise the Non-Acquisition Party demonstrates to the Acquisition Party that such acquisition has had a material adverse effect on the commercialization of Irbesartan Products by the Territory B Partnership in the portion of Territory B where such Covered Enterprise engages in or undertakes the Business, the Acquisition Party shall, at its option, either:

(a) cause the Covered Enterprise to divest itself of the Business (the “Competing Business”) within twelve (12) months of such demonstration by the Non-Acquisition Party; or

(b) offer to the Non-Acquisition Party the right to acquire the Corresponding Percentage of the Acquisition Party’s ownership interest in the Competing Business at a valuation which, taking into account the percentage of the gross annual revenues of the Covered Enterprise that are represented by the Competing Business, is in proportion to the price paid by the Acquisition Party for the Covered Enterprise, in the understanding that should the Non-Acquisition Party decline to acquire such a participation in the Competing Business the Non-Acquisition Party shall have no further rights under this Article IX to challenge such acquisition.

in the understanding that the other Party shall remain subject to Sections 9.01 and 9.02 hereof in any such countries and in the remaining countries in Territory B.

(b) A Party that acquires the right to commercialize Irbesartan Products in any country within Territory B or in all of Territory B from the Territory B Partnership (and/or the other Party and its Affiliates) pursuant to:

Section 9.06 Lost Profits and Consequential Damages. In no event shall a Party be liable to the other Party for lost profits or for any consequential damages that such other Party may suffer under or in connection with this Article IX.

Section 9.07 Consideration and Inducement. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that (i) each of the covenants of the Parties set forth in Sections 9.01 and 9.02 hereof has been agreed following extensive negotiations among the Parties, (ii) the Parties have bargained for the benefit of such covenants in order to protect their investment in the Territory B Partnership, (iii) each of the covenants of the Parties set forth in Sections 9.01 and 9.02 hereof is an essential element of the transactions contemplated by the Parties to protect their investment in the Territory B Partnership and (iv) it has independently consulted with its counsel and, after such consultation, agrees that the covenants set forth in Sections 9.01 and 9.02 hereof are reasonable and proper.

Section 9.08 Deemed Amendment. The Parties’ covenants contained in Sections 9.01 and 9.02 hereof with respect to the Business, specified time period and geographic area are separate and several. Each Party acknowledges that the limitations and restrictions set forth in Sections 9.01 and 9.02 hereof are reasonable to protect the legitimate commercial interests of each of the Parties and their Affiliates, and in particular, to protect the investment in the Territory B Partnership, and that such covenants are given for valuable consideration and are valid and enforceable against each Party, and each Party hereby waives all defenses (other than fraud and misrepresentation and other defenses similar thereto) to the maximum extent possible regarding the strict enforcement of such covenants. If any court of competent jurisdiction determines that the definition of Business, the specified time period or the geographic area are unreasonable, arbitrary, too broad in description or scope, or against public policy, the shorter or smaller time period or geographic area, or reduced scope of business, as the case may be, determined by such court to be reasonable, non-arbitrary, sufficiently narrow or not against public policy, may be enforced against each Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party agrees to honor the provisions of Sections 9.01 and 9.02 hereof, including the definition of Business, the time period and the geographic area as specified herein and not to contest the enforceability of such definition of Business, time period or geographic area. If any covenant or provision in this Article IX is determined to be void or unenforceable, in whole or in part, such determination shall not affect or impair, or be deemed to affect or impair, the validity or enforceability of any other covenant or provision of this Article IX or of this Agreement.

6. Each Party shall cause its Affiliates that are parties to any local agreements containing non-competition provisions inconsistent with or contrary to the provisions of this Amendment No. 1 to amend such local agreements to be in accordance with these provisions.

7. Except as explicitly amended hereby, other provisions of the Agreement (as otherwise amended, modified, supplemented or restated prior to the Effective Date) shall remain unchanged.
