Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Seller hereby agrees to sell to the Buyer, and the Buyer hereby agrees to purchase from the Seller, the Shares, free and clear from any Lien.

The cash-free debt-free enterprise value of the Company is CHF 622,500,000 (the “Enterprise Value”), which assumes Net Working Capital in the amount of CHF 94,000,000 (the “Required Net Working Capital”).

The Parties agree that the Net Working Capital and the Net Financial Debt shall be defined and calculated in accordance with the principles set forth in Annex 2.2 (the “Accounting Principles”) and as applied in the Consolidated December 08 Financial Statements.

In addition, the Buyer shall pay to the Seller an amount on the Equity Purchase Price (as adjusted pursuant to Section 2.3) calculated at a rate of 6.5% (determined on the basis of

actual days lapsed and a year of 365 days) — which amount shall be compounded as per the end of each calendar quarter — per year as from January 1, 2010 until the effective payment of the Equity Purchase Price (the “Time Based Purchase Price Adjustment Amount”).

2.3.                                     ADJUSTMENT OF EQUITY PURCHASE PRICE

The Equity Purchase Price shall be adjusted (upwards or downwards, as the case may be) by an amount which shall be determined in accordance with the principles set forth in this Section 2.3.

(b)                       If the Buyer disagrees with the calculation of the Net Financial Debt set forth on the Statement of Net Financial Debt or the Net Working Capital set forth on the Statement of Net Working Capital delivered pursuant to Section 2.3.1(a), the Buyer may, within 20 (twenty) Business Days after delivery of the documents referred to in Section 2.3.1(a), deliver a written notice to the Seller disagreeing with such calculation (the “Notice of Objection”).

(f)                          The fees, costs and expenses of the Appraiser shall be borne by the Seller and the Buyer, as applicable, in the proportion that the aggregate amount of the relevant Party’s claims submitted under this Section 2.3.1 are sustained or rejected by the Appraiser.

Seller’s liability shall, however, be reduced accordingly, as the case may be, excluded altogether if the Damage has been caused or aggravated by virtue of Buyer’s failure to give timely notice in accordance with Section 9.1.2(b). The time periods set forth in Section 9.1.1 shall be deemed complied with, if the Seller receives a Notice of Breach in accordance with Section 9.1.2(b) before the lapse of the relevant time period.

9.1.3.                           Seller’s Right to Cure and Seller’s Liability

After the Closing, in the event of a misrepresentation or breach of warranty by the Seller under Section 5 and provided that such breach has been duly and timely notified within the time limitations of Section 9.1.1 and in accordance with Section 9.1.2, the Seller, subject to the exclusions and limitations set forth in Section 9.1.4 and Section 10:

(a)                        shall have the right within 90 Business Days after receipt by it of the respective Notice of Breach, to remedy the misrepresentation or breach of warranty; and

(b)                       if and to the extent such cure cannot be effected or is not effected within said period of time, shall be liable to the Buyer for any direct damage, loss, expense or cost (including interests, but excluding any incidental damage, consequential damage, lost profits, punitive damage, damage arising from changes in any law or any accounting policy occurring after the date of this Agreement or damage based upon a lower valuation of the Mepha Group) (collectively the “Damage”) incurred or sustained by the Buyer and/or the Mepha Group Company resulting from the misrepresentation or breach of warranty.

9.1.4.                           Exclusion of Seller’s Liability

All matters and information which have been Fairly Disclosed in this Agreement (including, but not limited to, its Annexes) or in (i) the Disclosure Letter delivered to the Buyer; and (ii) the Data Room Documents as reflected in the Data Room Index and contained in the DVD attached hereto as Annex 9.1.4(ii) (the “Data Room Documents”; and together with all other documents and information referred to in this Section 9.1.4, the “Disclosure Documents”), and any matter, fact or circumstances known to the Buyer, shall operate as an exclusion of and limitation of Seller’s representations and warranties as set forth in Section 6 and the

56

Seller shall be under no liability against the Buyer and/or any of the Mepha Group Companies to the extent any fact, matter, or circumstance has been Fairly Disclosed in the Disclosure Documents or in the Buyer’s Best Knowledge. For the avoidance of doubt, the fact that certain matters, facts and circumstances have been specifically disclosed in this Agreement (in particular its Annexes) or are otherwise known to the Buyer or its representatives shall not in any way operate or be understood or construed to limit or exclude the effect of the disclosure of any matters, facts or circumstances which have been disclosed in the Disclosure Documents but not in this Agreement (in particular its Annexes).

9.1.5.                           Commencement of Legal Proceedings; Disclosure Obligation

(a)                        Any claim duly notified pursuant to Section 9.1.1 and Section 9.1.2 shall (if it has not been previously satisfied, settled or withdrawn) be deemed to be irrevocably precluded and forfeited (verwirkt) 6 (six) months after the last day of the applicable term of the relevant representation and warranty as set forth in Section 9.1.1, unless legal proceedings in accordance with Section 13 have been initiated by the Buyer with respect to said claim.

(b)                       At the Seller’s request, the Buyer shall cooperate reasonably with the Seller, including giving the Seller such information and assistance, access to premises and personnel, and the right to examine and copy or photograph any documents or records, as the Seller may reasonably request in order to assess the legitimacy of the claim raised by the Buyer.

9.2.                                     REMEDIES OF THE SELLER

The provisions of Section 9.1 shall apply mutatis mutandis with respect to any misrepresentation or breach of warranty by the Buyer; it being understood that the representations and warranties of the Buyer as set forth in Section 7 above shall be valid for a period of 18 (eighteen) months as from the Closing Date.

9.3.                                     REMEDIES EXCLUSIVE

The remedies in this Section 9 for misrepresentation or breach of warranty under Section 5 shall be in lieu of (and not in addition to) the remedies provided for by applicable statutory

57

law. All other remedies (including, but not limited to, the rescission of this Agreement (Wandlung) following Closing) shall be excluded. In particular, and without limitation to the foregoing, the Parties herewith explicitly waive the right of contract rescission and of purchase price reduction under article 205 CO and article 24 CO. It is understood and agreed that this Section 9.3 does not exclude articles 28 CO and 199 CO. Section 4.2.2 and Section 4.2.3 shall — for the avoidance of doubt — remain reserved. Further, it is acknowledged and agreed that the fact that Section 2.2 mentions the Enterprise Value and contains the derivation of the Equity Purchase Price shall under no circumstance be considered to be the basis for any claims by one Party against the other Party.

9.4.                                     THIRD PARTY CLAIMS

(a)                        If any claim is brought or threatened to be brought after the Closing Date by a third party (including, but not limited to, by any tax or other governmental authority or body) against the Buyer or any of the Mepha Group Companies, which is reasonably likely to qualify as a breach of a representation or warranty, the Buyer shall notify the Seller in accordance with Section 9.1.2(b) and shall oppose and defend and cause the relevant Mepha Group Companies to oppose and defend such third party claim (the “Third-Party Claim”), and the Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts in assisting the Buyer or the Mepha Group Companies, at the Buyer’s costs and expenses, in the defense of such Third-Party Claim.

(b)                       The Buyer shall not and shall procure that the Mepha Group Companies shall not settle any such claims without the prior written consent of the Seller; it being understood and agreed that the Buyer and/or the Mepha Group Companies may settle any such claim without the prior written consent of the Seller, but shall, by doing so, forfeit (verwirken) its right to receive compensation from the Seller under this Agreement and such settlement shall be deemed to constitute a full, irrevocable and unconditional waiver by the Buyer of any claims under this Agreement against the Seller in respect of such Third-Party Claim.

(c)                         Notwithstanding Section 9.4(a) and Section 9.4(b), the Seller shall be entitled at its own expense and its absolute discretion, by written notice to the Buyer, to take such action as it may deem necessary in connection with or with respect to such Third Party Claim (including, but not limited to, making counterclaims or other claims against

58

third parties) in the name and on behalf of the Buyer or any Affiliate of the Buyer concerned and to have the conduct of any related proceedings, negotiations or appeals, subject to the Seller indemnifying the Buyer against its losses directly arising by it so doing, and the Buyer and any Affiliate of the Buyer concerned shall duly authorize the Seller to do so.

9.5.                                     PAYMENTS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT

Any payments for breach of representations and warranties and any other reimbursements made by one Party to the other Party under this Agreement shall be treated as an adjustment to the Final Purchase Price.

10.1.                              DEDUCTIBLE AND DE MINIMIS AMOUNT

The Seller shall only be liable to the Buyer for any claim (a) if such claim exceeds the amount of CHF 100,000 (the “De Minimis Amount”) (it being understood that a series of claims based on or resulting from the same set of facts or circumstances shall be regarded as one individual claim) and (b) if and to the extent all claims of the Buyer under this Agreement which exceed the De Minimis Amount taken together exceed CHF 5,000,000 (the “Deductible Amount”) in the aggregate, in which event the Buyer shall be entitled to recover all amounts in excess of CHF 2,500,000 (and not only the amounts in excess of the Deductible Amount).

10.2.                              LIABILITY CAP

The Seller’s maximum aggregate liability under this Agreement shall in no event exceed CHF 65,000,000 (the “Cap”) except for claims brought against the Seller (i) under Section 6.1.2 (Title to Shares), (ii) under Sections 6.1.3(a) and 6.1.3(b) (Corporate Existence of the Subsidiaries), and (iii) under [**], in which cases the cap shall be 100% of the Final Purchase Price (it being understood that any payment for a liability of the Seller under such Sections shall count against the Cap).

59

10.3.                              FURTHER LIMITATION

Seller’s liability shall be further limited or reduced:

(a)                        If and to the extent that such claims have been taken into account in the adjustment of the Equity Purchase Price set forth in Section 2.3 or if and to the extent that the Buyer would otherwise recover under this Agreement from the Seller in excess of the Damage suffered.

(b)                       If and to the extent that facts, matters or circumstances which give rise to a claim against the Seller in accordance with this Agreement result in any actual financial benefits or actual financial advantages for the Mepha Group, the Buyer or any of Buyer’s Affiliates, in which event the Seller’s liability will be reduced by the amount equal to any such actual benefits or advantages.

(c)                        If and to the extent the Buyer or, following Closing, any of the Mepha Group Companies has failed to use its Reasonable Efforts to mitigate the loss or damage.

(d)                       If and to the extent that such claim is covered by any provision, reserve or valuation allowance made in any of the Financial Statements.

(f)                          If and to the extent that the Buyer or any of the Mepha Group Companies receive any benefits or savings by repayment, set-off or reduction of Taxes which they would not have received but for the circumstances giving rise to a claim, provided that if and to the extent any Tax benefits or savings arise in the future, such benefits or savings are discounted accordingly.

60

(g)                       If and to the extent the liability is resulting from or attributable to an act, omission, transaction, change of past practice or arrangement of the Buyer or, after the Closing, any of the Mepha Group Companies.

(h)                       If and to the extent that such claim arises or is increased as a result of any new legislation, regulation or rule of law not in force at the date hereof or any amendment of any legislation, regulation, rule of law or practice after the date hereof.
