Novartis shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the Components benefit from discounts, allowances, credits or other pricing incentives it receives from suppliers and that discounts, allowances, credits or other pricing incentives it receives from suppliers on other raw materials do not disproportionately increase the price that it pays for the Components. 8. Forecasts and Ordering. At least [**] Business Days in advance of the commencement of each calendar month, Idenix US shall provide Novartis with its monthly rolling forecast of the quantities of LdT Finished Product that Idenix US estimates it will be requiring for the coming [**] months. Idenix US shall be obligated to purchase at least [**] percent ([**]%) of the quantity estimated for the next [**]-month period during such upcoming [**]-month period, and Novartis shall be obligated to supply up to [**] percent ([**]%) of such estimated quantity during the upcoming [**]-month period. The first [**] months of each rolling forecast shall be considered firm orders, thereby committing Idenix US to purchase and Novartis to sell the stated amount of LdT Finished Products, and Idenix US shall raise the corresponding firm orders in writing, on stock keeping units basis to Novartis at the same time when submitting its monthly forecast. Idenix US shall purchase [**] percent ([**]%) of the LdT Finished Products specified in each firm order. Idenix US shall specify in each firm order (a) the quantity of the LdT Finished Products ordered, (b) the 4 delivery location(s) for such quantity, (c) the requested delivery date(s), and (d) any export/import information required to enable Novartis to deliver the order. Novartis in its sole discretion may reject any order that does not comply with this Agreement and all other orders that comply with this Agreement will be accepted.

In such event, Novartis shall allocate to the LdT Finished Product its available production capacity or common raw materials in such proportion (expressed as a function of equipment or raw materials utilized) as the production equipment capacity or common raw materials actually utilized to meet orders of Idenix US for the LdT Finished Product over the previous [**] (or, if a full [**] month period of Manufacture of the LdT Finished Product has not yet occurred, the actual period of time of such Manufacture). In the event that Novartis is still unable (including without limitation any inability as a result of a Force Majeure Event) to meet confirmed firm orders despite the capacity allocation set forth above, the matter shall be submitted to the Joint Manufacturing Agreement, who shall make a recommendation to be approved by the Joint Steering Committee. 10. Delivery. Novartis shall deliver all LdT Finished Products in accordance with the quantities and requested delivery date(s) specified in the relevant firm order. Novartis will pack the LdT Finished Products for shipment and storage in accordance with the applicable Specifications.

If Idenix US or its designee fails to so notify Novartis, Idenix US or its designee will be deemed to have accepted such LdT Finished Product; provided that if the non-conformity results from a defect that is not typically observed 5 by routine inspection, Idenix US or its designee will have the right to reject such LdT Finished Product if it notifies Novartis of such Rejection upon discovery, within the timelines set forth in the Quality Agreement. 11.2 Disputes regarding Rejection. Upon receipt of a Rejection, Novartis shall have twenty (20) Business Days to advise Idenix US by notice in writing if it disagrees with such Rejection (a "Rejection Disagreement"). If the Parties fail to agree within ten (10) Business Days after Idenix US' receipt of a Rejection Disagreement, the Parties shall mutually select an independent laboratory to evaluate the samples returned by Idenix US. Such evaluation shall be binding on the Parties. If such evaluation certifies that any of such samples do not conform to the applicable Specifications, Novartis shall pay the costs and expenses of such evaluation, all costs and expenses incurred by Idenix US in returning the samples of the rejected LdT Finished Product and all costs incurred in replacing the non-conforming Finished Product. If such evaluation certifies that all such samples conform to the applicable Specifications, Idenix US shall pay the costs and expenses of such evaluation and shall pay Novartis for the rejected LdT Finished Product. 11.3 Consequences of accepted or non-disputed Rejection. Idenix US will not be required to pay Novartis for any LdT Finished Product that does not conform to the applicable Specifications.

Prior to November 30 of each calendar year, the Parties shall agree in writing on a price per unit of LdT Finished Product to be used for the following calendar year (the "Standard Delivery Price"), taking into consideration the various elements of Purchase Price as specified in Section 12.1 above. Actual Purchase Price will be calculated for the respective calendar year when all the actual elements of the Purchase Price are known. Reconciliation of Actual Purchase Price with the Standard Delivery Price shall be made in two steps: i) Provisional reconciliation. Within 60 (sixty) calendar days after the end of the third quarter of each calendar year, Novartis will send to Idenix US a report comparing the Actual Purchase Price with the Standard Delivery Price invoiced to Idenix US for the first three quarters of such calendar year, such report being based on actual data for the first three quarters of such calendar year and the available estimates for the fourth quarter. The Parties agree that no reconciliation payment shall be made as a result of the report sent by Novartis to Idenix US for the first three calendar quarters of any calendar year. ii) Final reconciliation. Within 30 (thirty) calendar days after the end of each calendar year, Novartis will send to Idenix US a report comparing the Actual Purchase Price with the Standard Delivery Price invoiced to Idenix US for such calendar year. The Parties shall reconcile the reports within sixty (60) days after the end of such calendar year. Any payment required by Idenix US or Novartis to compensate the difference between the Actual Purchase Price and the Standard Delivery Price shall be made to the appropriate Party within 30 (thirty) calendar days of reconciliation of such report. In the event of a dispute with respect thereto, (a) the paying Party shall remit on a timely basis all amounts not disputed and shall provide written notice within such thirty (30) day period after reconciliation of such report, specifying in detail the amounts in dispute and the basis for such dispute, (b) the matter shall be referred to the Joint Steering Committee for resolution, and (c) interest shall be payable on any additional amounts determined to be due in the same manner as provided for in Section 6.9 of the Supply Agreement. To the extent that one Party must make a payment to the other Party, the paying Party shall pay the other Party such payments within thirty (30) days after Final reconciliation of such reports. 12.3 Currency. The currency for pricing, invoicing and reporting will be in United States Dollars. For the purpose of this Agreement, all currencies will be converted into United States Dollars using the then Novartis official currency conversion methodology applied in its external reporting (which is based on official rates such as Reuters and the European Central Bank) for the conversion of foreign currency into United States Dollars. 7 12.4 Payment Terms. The Standard Delivery Price shall be paid within thirty (30) days from delivery of the relevant shipment. Invoices shall be issued together with the delivery note and the packing list. Sections 6.5, 6.6, 6.8 and 6.9 of the Supply Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference and shall apply to the Parties with respect to this Agreement mutatis mutandis to the same extent as in the Supply Agreement. 12.5 Cost Improvement. The Parties shall, through the Joint Manufacturing Committee, jointly undertake to participate and invest in a research and development program and other efforts to lower costs of Manufacturing the API for the LdT Finished Product by funding and/or dedicating efforts to such program, and the Parties shall share the net benefits of such cost reductions in proportion to their respective contributions thereto (taking into account, without limitation, the value of any financial and non-financial contributions). 12.6 Audit. Novartis shall keep, and shall cause its Affiliates and licensees to keep, complete and accurate records of the data, including expense data, relating to the pricing, invoicing, reports and payments required under this Agreement. Idenix US will annually have the right at its own expense to have an independent, certified public accountant, selected by it and reasonably acceptable to Novartis, review any such records pertaining to the portion of the Purchase Price relating to the API as determined in Section 12.1(a) in the location(s) where such records are maintained by Novartis, its Affiliates and licensees, upon reasonable notice and during regular business hours and under obligations of confidence, for the sole purpose of verifying the basis and accuracy of payments made pursuant to Section 12.2 (ii) in each case within the prior calendar year. If the review of such records reveals that the Actual Purchase Price was inaccurately reported, then Novartis or Idenix US, as the case may be, shall pay to the other Party the resulting amounts due pursuant to Section 12.2 (ii) above. Should the review of such records reveals that Idenix US was overcharged by Novartis by more than ten percent (10%) of the amounts actually due from Idenix US for the reviewed period, then Novartis shall pay all of the costs of such review. 13.
