    Royalty Rate for Net Sales in Region
            Major EU   Rest of World
Annual Net Sales of LdT Product   U.S.   Countries   Territory
Less than or equal to US$[**]
    [**] %     [**] %     [**] %
More than US$[**] and less than or equal to US$[**]
    [**] %     [**] %     [**] %
More than US$[**] and less than or equal to US$[**]

    [**] %     [**] %     [**] %
     (b) The amount of Net Sales per Region for each royalty tier shall be based on the percentage the particular Region’s Net Sales are of the total Net Sales.

If Net Sales are US$[**] in the first quarter and US$[**] in the second quarter, and of the US$[**], US$[**] is from the US, US$[**] from the Major EU Countries, and US$[**] from the Rest of World Territory.
For the second quarter:
[**]% of the Net Sales would be apportioned to the US; [**]% to the Major EU Countries; and [**]% to the Rest of World.
The total royalties payable would equal the sum of the royalties payable under the remaining portion of the first tier and the amount payable under of the second tier, i.e. the sum of:
     (i) the first tier of royalties, which is the sum of [**]% of US$[**]% of the US$[**] from the first tier) for the US, [**]% of US$[**] for the Major EU Countries, plus [**]% of US$[**]; and

If Net Sales are US$[**] in the first quarter and $[**] in the second quarter; of the US$[**], US[**] is from the US, US$[**]from the Major EU Countries, and US$[**] from the Rest of World Territory; and Market Exclusivity Rights are lost or not obtained in France where there were US$[**] Net Sales for that quarter.
For the second quarter, the royalty calculated for the Net Sales for France, without regard to the reduced rate, would be [**], that is US$[**].
The average weighted royalty rate would equal US$[**] / US$[**], or [**]%.
The royalty rate reduction would then equal [**]% of the amount, that is US$[**].
     (e) With its quarterly Consolidated Net Sales Report under Section 5.11, Novartis shall provide to Idenix its calculation of the royalty payable for the Novartis Territory by Region.
