ARTICLE 2 PURCHASE AND SALE OF PRODUCT 2.1 GENERAL. The general purpose of the collaboration described in this Agreement is for BPI to supply Kos with the Product for sale in the Territory and for Kos to purchase the Product from BPI for sale in the Territory. 2.2 SUPPLY AND PURCHASE OF THE PRODUCT. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement and effective as of the Closing Date, during the Term, BPI shall supply exclusively to Kos, and Kos shall be obligated to purchase exclusively from BPI, all of Kos's requirements of Product for use in the Territory. For purposes of clarity, all Product supplied by BPI to Kos hereunder shall be in finished form and packaged in primary packaging. For purposes of clarity, the foregoing shall not give Kos any rights with respect to (i) the development of the Product or (ii) except as otherwise set forth in Section 3.13, regulatory matters in connection with the Product. Kos hereby grants to BPI an irrevocable, fully-paid, royalty-free, sublicensable, right and license in and to the Product Trade Dress and Product Trademarks to perform its obligations under this Agreement. 2.3 SUPPLY PRICES FOR PRODUCT. The price for supply of Product shall be as set forth in Article 5. 2.4 SAMPLES OF PRODUCT. Upon Kos's request from time to time, BPI shall provide to Kos, at a cost per Unit of Product equal to the applicable amount set forth on Schedule 2.4 for such Product (the "SAMPLE PRICE"), such number of Units of Product as Kos may reasonably request for use as Samples in the Territory; provided, however, that no such Samples shall be sold by Kos. The supply of Samples pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be excluded in all cases from the calculation of Purchase Price pursuant to Section 5.1. Kos shall pay the Sample Price to BPI within thirty (30) days of delivery of the Samples. 2.5 PRODUCT FORM AND LABELING. BPI shall supply Product to Kos in the form set out in the applicable Regulatory Approval for each Product. As soon as practicable following the execution of this Agreement, Kos shall provide to BPI camera ready art for the final packaging of each Product, which shall be in compliance with all applicable Laws and Regulatory Approvals for the Product in the Territory and shall otherwise be in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. BPI shall promptly order Kos's packaging from BPI's supplier for use as soon as available. The cost of any additional labeling changes shall be borne by the Party requesting such change. In the event of a change mandated by the FDA, such costs shall be borne by Kos. In the event of a subsequent labeling change requested by Kos or required by the FDA, Kos shall reimburse BPI for the actual costs of packaging on hand that cannot be used, including, without limitation, packaging, labeling, work-in-process or other materials made obsolete by such change. BPI will use reasonable efforts to minimize the amount of such unusable packaging. -9- 2.6 FORECASTS AND PURCHASE ORDERS. 2.6.1 During the Term, Kos shall deliver to BPI, by the 14th day of each month commencing on the Closing Date, Kos's monthly projection of the quantities of Product (broken down on an SKU-by-SKU basis), including Samples, that Kos anticipates ordering from BPI pursuant to this Agreement for the next succeeding eighteen (18) months. Such projections shall be in multiples of the Batch Sizes set out Schedule 2.6.1 and shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to BPI. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the first such forecast shall incorporate the Initial Firm Zone requirements as set forth in Section 2.6.2. 2.6.2 The anticipated quantities required for each Product as set forth for each of the first four (4) months of each such monthly projection shall be a binding commitment by Kos under this Agreement to purchase the specified quantities of Product (each such four month period shall be referred to herein as the "FIRM ZONE"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Kos shall determine the quantities of Product for the initial Firm Zone, subject to a pro-rated amount of the maximum quantities set forth in Schedule 2.6.5(B), and subject to BPI's approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld (the "INITIAL FIRM ZONE"), which determination shall, in all cases, be made no later than the seventh (7th) day following the Effective Date, and which Initial Firm Zone shall be in the form as set forth on Schedule 2.6.2. 2.6.3 The anticipated quantities required for Product for the fifth (5th) through eighteenth (18th) month of each monthly projection shall be non-binding estimates of Product requirements of Kos, provided, however that, the anticipated quantities required for each Product for a specified month in the Firm Zone portion of any monthly projection shall not vary from Kos's previously delivered monthly projection for such month, except as follows: (A) The quantities may vary by up to **** from those set forth on the last non-binding estimates for such month before it entered the Firm Zone; (B) The quantities for months five (5), six (6) and seven (7) may vary by up to **** from the average of the next two prior non-binding estimates related to such month; and (C) The quantities for months eight (8) through eighteen (18) may vary by up to **** from the average of the remaining prior non-binding estimates related to such month. 2.6.4 For purposes of this Section 2.6, the month in which a monthly projection is delivered shall be considered month 0 and the following month shall be considered month 1. By way of example, if a monthly projection is delivered on May 14, then the months of June, July, August, and September shall be the Firm Zone. May shall also be considered to be in the Firm Zone based upon the monthly projections delivered in the months of January, February, March and April. 2.6.5 During the Term, Kos shall deliver to BPI, with each monthly projection delivered pursuant to Section 2.6.1, a firm purchase order ("PURCHASE ORDER") for the quantities of Product (broken out by SKU), including Samples, required by Kos for the fourth (4th) month in the Firm Zone for that monthly projection, and the required delivery date for such quantities; -10- provided, however that the first purchase order shall be as set forth on Schedule 2.6.5(A). Each Purchase Order shall be in multiples of the Batch Sizes set out on Schedule 2.6.1 for each Product required and BPI shall be entitled to reject any Purchase Order that exceeds the maximum monthly capacity as set forth on Schedule 2.6.5(B) for each Product required. The Purchase Orders may be delivered electronically or by other means to such location as BPI shall designate and shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to BPI; provided, however that a Purchase Order shall not be binding until BPI confirms receipt of such Purchase Order to Kos (which confirmation shall be provided by BPI within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such Purchase Order). 2.6.6 In the event that Kos fails to deliver to BPI the required monthly projection or any Purchase Orders related thereto on or prior to the fourteenth (14th) day of any calendar month in accordance with Section 2.6, then the quantities projected and the terms applicable thereto, for the next applicable calendar month as set forth for such month in the immediately preceding applicable monthly projection delivered to BPI by Kos, shall be regarded as orders with a delivery date selected by BPI within the applicable calendar month. 2.6.7 From time to time, due to significant unforeseen circumstances, Kos may deliver to BPI under Section 2.6.5 a Purchase Order for quantities of Product in excess of those specified in any Firm Zone. BPI shall use its Diligent Efforts to provide Kos with Product necessary to accommodate such excess quantities of Product, but shall not be obligated to do so. 2.7 PRODUCT SUPPLY. 2.7.1 The Parties acknowledge and agree that Affiliates of BPI or Third Parties (a "THIRD PARTY MANUFACTURER") will Manufacture Product to be supplied by BPI to Kos for Distribution in the Territory pursuant to this Agreement. BPI shall ensure that any Affiliates or Third Parties Manufacturing Product for supply hereunder shall be subject to the compliance, quality assurance and all requirements related to such Manufacturing activities under this Agreement related to such Manufacturing activities. The satisfactory compliance of such Third Party Manufacturer or Affiliate with those obligations shall be deemed to be satisfactory compliance by BPI with its obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, BPI shall remain fully liable for the performance of its obligations under this Agreement. 2.7.2 The Product shall initially be manufactured at either the Steinbach, Manitoba, Canada manufacturing facility or one of the Puerto Rico manufacturing facilities (each, a "MANUFACTURING FACILITY") of Affiliates of BPI, or any combination thereof. If BPI (or its Affiliates) desires to change the site of Manufacture of a Product (or engage a new Third Party Manufacturer), BPI shall provide to Kos as much prior notice as reasonably possible, but in any event, other than as a result of a force majeure as set forth in Section 16.2 of this Agreement, no less than ninety (90) days. To the extent BPI (or its applicable Affiliate) determines to make any such changes which require Regulatory Approval, BPI shall use Diligent Efforts to continue to supply Kos with Product from the prior Manufacturing Facility, or Product manufactured by the prior Third Party Manufacturer, pending the receipt of such approval for the new Manufacturing Facility and/or new Third Party Manufacturer. -11- 2.8 PRODUCT SUPPLY CAPACITY. BPI shall notify Kos if BPI determines that it will be unable to supply the quantities of any Product set out in a monthly projection delivered pursuant to Section 2.6 as soon as practicable, but in any event within ten (10) Business Days after receiving the applicable monthly projections from Kos; provided that any such notice shall not relieve or prejudice either Party of any of their obligations or rights, respectively, under this Agreement. Subject to Section 2.14.3, BPI shall not be obligated to make more than one delivery of Product to Kos in any calendar month. 2.9 DELIVERY. 2.9.1 BPI shall be entitled to deliver Product as much as fifteen (15) days prior to or fifteen (15) days after the delivery date specified by Kos in the applicable Purchase Order and such delivery shall be deemed to have been delivered on a timely basis hereunder. In addition, in order to allow for Product Manufacturing variances, BPI shall be entitled to deliver quantities of Product as much as **** the amount of Product specified by Kos in the applicable Purchase Order and such delivery shall be deemed to have been delivered in satisfaction of BPI's obligations hereunder. All Product shall be delivered by BPI DDP (as defined in INCOTERMS, 2000 Edition, published by the International Chamber of Commerce, ICC Publication 560) at Kos's designated warehouse that is in the United States or Puerto Rico (such location, the "DELIVERY POINT") (provided, however, that Kos shall, at Kos's determination, either pay the freight cost directly to the shipping company or reimburse BPI, for the cost of shipping Product from the place of manufacture of Product to the Delivery Point). Upon such delivery at the Delivery Point, title to, ownership of, and risk of loss of Product shall pass from BPI to Kos. 2.9.2 BPI shall notify Kos as soon as BPI determines that it will be unable to deliver Product ordered by Kos within fifteen (15) days after the delivery date specified in the Purchase Order. Without prejudice to any of the Parties' rights under this Agreement, if such inability is due to normal constraints associated with Manufacturing, scheduling or delivery of the Product, Kos and BPI shall cooperate to establish a mutually agreeable alternate delivery date. 2.10 PRODUCT QUALITY. 2.10.1 BPI shall perform, or cause to be performed, on each batch of Product all tests required by the Product Specifications before delivery of any Product from that batch to Kos. 2.10.2 BPI shall provide a Certificate of Analysis (a "COA") to Kos for each shipment of Product certifying that Product conforms with the Product Specifications, along with the results of such analysis and any supporting data. Kos shall be under no obligation to accept any shipment of Product for which BPI has not provided a COA or which Kos reasonably believes does not comply with the COA and, subject to the limitations on liability provided for herein, BPI shall be responsible for any reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by Kos with respect to the storage, shipment, return or, at BPI's direction, destruction, of such non-conforming shipment. -12- 2.11 CHANGES IN PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS. BPI shall notify Kos before any changes in the Product Specifications are made which require additional Regulatory Approval.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if BPI (or an Affiliate) is required by the FDA to make any change to the Product Specifications or Manufacturing procedures for the Product, BPI shall (or shall cause its Affiliate to), at the expense of BPI, subject to Section 2.5, file any amendment or supplement to the NDA required to effect such change. 2.12 MANUFACTURING CHANGES. BPI (or an Affiliate) may, in its sole discretion, make any changes to the Manufacturing process for the Product; provided, however that any such changes are made in accordance with all applicable Laws, and provided further that (i) BPI shall notify Kos, in writing, of such changes if such changes require additional Regulatory Approval and (ii) to the extent any such change affects (a) the Batch Size or (b) the shelf life of a Product, BPI shall obtain Kos's written approval of the timing of the implementation of such change, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. 2.13 RECORDS/FACILITIES. 2.13.1 BPI (or its applicable Affiliate) shall maintain all Manufacturing and analytical records, and all validation data relating to the Product to the extent and for the time periods set forth by the Product Specifications and applicable Laws. 2.13.2 BPI shall maintain, and shall ensure that any Third Party Manufacturer maintains, all records as are necessary and appropriate to demonstrate compliance with cGMPs. 2.14 REJECTION OF PRODUCT; REMEDIES. 2.14.1 Kos shall be entitled to reject any Product that fails to conform to the Product Specifications or warranties with respect to the Product given by BPI herein (including, without limitation, those set forth in Section 2.15). Kos shall notify BPI of such rejection within thirty (30) days after delivery of such Product to Kos, and shall set forth in such notification the basis for such rejection, including any testing or inspection results. Failure to notify BPI within such thirty (30) day period or failure to specify the basis for such rejection, shall constitute acceptance of such Product. 2.14.2 If BPI does not agree with the basis specified by Kos in connection with Kos's rejection of Product, the senior quality assurance officer of Kos and BPI, or such other persons as Kos or BPI may designate in writing, shall confer to review the available samples and/or batch records, as appropriate. If the disagreement is not resolved, then the samples, batch records and other data relating to the batch in dispute shall promptly be submitted for testing and evaluation to an independent qualified Third Party testing laboratory approved in writing by both Parties. The cost of the testing and evaluation by the Third Party shall be borne by the Party whose position is found erroneous. Any disagreement about the selection of a testing laboratory or conclusions of any testing laboratory so selected shall be resolved in accordance with Section 14.1 of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any such Product subject to such dispute shall not be included as Product not supplied by BPI hereunder for purposes of determining the existence of a Supply Failure unless and until it is -13- ultimately determined that such Product was rightfully rejected by Kos in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. 2.14.3 With respect to Product agreed or found to have been rightfully rejected by Kos, BPI shall, at its option: (A) replace such Product as soon as reasonably practicable, at no additional cost to Kos; or (B) give Kos a credit in an amount equal to the amount paid or payable by Kos with respect to such rejected Product. 2.14.4 Except to the extent Kos is entitled to indemnification from BPI for Third Party Claims under Section 13.1.1, the remedies set forth in Section 2.14.3 shall be Kos's sole and exclusive remedies for any rejected Product hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, BPI shall have no liability to Kos to the extent that: (a) the replacement of any Product shall have been necessitated by the negligence or willful misconduct of Kos, (b) the contamination or defect complained of is caused by the handling of Product by Kos, or after delivery to Kos, by a Third Party outside of BPI's control not in accordance with the Product Specifications, or (c) Product has not been stored or used by Kos, or after delivery to Kos, by a Third Party, in accordance with the applicable Product Specifications. 2.14.5 The period provided for rejection of Product in Section 2.14.1 shall not apply to any failure of the Product to comply with the Product Specifications or any warranty with respect to the Product given by BPI herein at the time of delivery which was not reasonably detectable within thirty (30) days of delivery of the Product to Kos.

The findings of any such inspection with respect to the Product at such site shall promptly be made known solely with respect to the Product (and BPI, and to the extent such information is provided by suppliers or contractors, its supplier or contractor, shall be entitled to redact any and all such information not related to the Product, or such portions with -15- respect to Third Parties that is confidential) in writing to Kos insofar and to the extent that they may materially and adversely impact the commercialization or manufacture, including but not limited to quality and testing of the Product under this Agreement. 2.19 THRESHOLD PURCHASES. 2.19.1 PRODUCT. For any given calendar year during the Threshold Purchases Term, in the event that the aggregate Purchase Price paid by Kos to BPI for all Units of the Product as calculated in Section 5.1 for such calendar year is less than the applicable Cardizem LA Threshold Purchases for such calendar year, then Kos shall pay to BPI an additional amount equal to **** of the difference between such Cardizem LA Threshold Purchases and the aggregate Purchase Price paid by Kos for Product for such calendar year. Kos shall pay such amount to BPI in immediately available funds within sixty (60) days after the end of the applicable calendar year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Kos shall be relieved of its obligation to pay the amounts set forth in this Section 2.19.1 from and after the date of Generic Entry in the Territory; provided, however that in all cases, in the event the date of Generic Entry occurs on any day other than the last day of a calendar year, the amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.19.1 for such calendar year shall be pro-rated for the number of days that elapsed during such calendar year prior to such date of Generic Entry. 2.19.2 SUPPLY FAILURES OR RECALLS. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.19.1, in the event that during a given calendar year during the Threshold Purchases Term there is either (i) a Supply Failure, (ii) a Permanent Recall of the Product in the Territory, or (iii) an event subject to Section 16.2 prevents the supply or distribution of the Product in the Territory for a period of at least ****, then the Cardizem LA Threshold Purchases amount for such calendar year shall be reduced pro-rata based on the number of months during such calendar year prior to the occurrence of the applicable conditions set forth in the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) divided by twelve (12). For the next subsequent calendar year during the Threshold Purchases Term, the Cardizem LA Threshold Purchases amount shall be the lesser of (x) the amount of such Cardizem LA Threshold Purchases for such calendar year as set forth on Schedule 1.6 and (y) (I) the actual pro-rated aggregate Net Sales of Product sold during the period commencing on the first day of the calendar month in such calendar year in which the events set forth in the foregoing clauses (i) or (iii) occurred and ending on the last day of such calendar year multiplied by (II) the fraction equal to twelve (12) divided by the number of months in such period; provided, however, that the Cardizem LA Threshold Purchases amount for the next subsequent calendar year during the Threshold Purchases Term following the calendar year in which the event set forth in the foregoing clause (ii) occurred shall be zero. 2.20 CMC INFORMATION.

If the Reconciliation Calculation (or any update thereto) for any given calendar month (or year, as applicable) indicates that the actual aggregate Purchase Price due exceeded the aggregate Projected Purchase Price paid for such calendar month (or -29- year, as applicable) in the aggregate, then Kos shall, along with the delivery of each report specified in Section 6.2.2, pay to BPI an amount equal to such difference.

The Parties agree that, prior to the Effective Date, BPI may select such employees as it shall decide in its sole discretion from its primary care and cardiovascular sales forces for transfer to its dermatology sales force, and such employees shall not be Affected Employees. As soon as practicable, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days following the Effective Date, Kos shall make, or shall cause one of its Affiliates to make, offers of employment to at least **** employees of BPI employed by BPI in its primary care or cardiovascular sales forces and home office personnel who are responsible for the sale or marketing of the Product (each such employee who receives such an offer of employment is a "SELECTED EMPLOYEE"), on such terms and conditions of employment as Kos shall determine, but including at a minimum terms and conditions that: (i) are, in the aggregate as to each individual, as favorable as the employment terms and conditions, including employee benefits, currently provided by BPI to such Selected Employees, and (ii) do not require relocation by the Selected Employee without their consent; provided, however that Kos shall be relieved of its obligation to make offers to at least **** such BPI employees to the extent that at least **** of such Selected Employees have previously accepted such offer of employment.

All Immediate Transfer Dates and Subsequent Transfer Dates are referred to hereafter as "TRANSFER DATES." All Selected Employees who accept the offers of employment specified in this Section 7.1 by reporting to work as of the applicable Transfer Date are referred to as "TRANSFERRED EMPLOYEES." Subject to making the number of offers on the terms described above, Kos reserves the right to amend, modify or terminate any employee benefit plan, program or arrangement in accordance with the applicable terms of such employee benefit plan, program or arrangement, or to terminate the employment of any employee, in its discretion at any time.

For all purposes under any Kos Plan, such Transferred Employee shall be credited with his or her years of service with BPI and its Affiliates before his or her Transfer Date, to the same extent as such Transferred Employee was entitled, before his or her Transfer Date, to credit for such service under any similar BPI Plan, except for purposes of accrual of benefits under any defined benefit pension plan and except to the extent such credit would result in a duplication of benefits. In addition, without limiting the generality of the foregoing: (i) Transferred Employee shall be eligible to participate immediately as of his or her Transfer Date, without any waiting time to the extent legally permitted, in each Kos Plan to the extent coverage under such Kos Plan replaces coverage under a comparable BPI Plan in which such Transferred Employee participated immediately before his or her Transfer Date; (ii) for purposes of each Kos Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical and/or vision benefits to any Transferred Employee, Kos shall cause all pre-existing condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of such Kos Plan to be waived for such employee and his or her covered dependents to the extent they were not applicable under the corresponding BPI Plan, and Kos shall cause any eligible expenses incurred by such employee and his or her covered dependents during the portion of the plan year of the corresponding BPI Plan ending on the date such employee's participation in the corresponding Kos Plan begins to be taken into account under such Kos Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such Kos Plan; and (iii) Kos hereby agrees to accept a rollover of the account balances under a tax-qualified defined contribution plan maintained by BPI or any of its Affiliates (a "BPI SAVINGS PLAN") into a tax-qualified defined contribution plan maintained by Kos or any of its Affiliates (a "KOS SAVINGS PLAN") in which the Transferred Employees are eligible to participate; provided the rollover satisfies the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. To the extent permitted by Law and the respective Kos plans, Kos and its Affiliates shall give all Transferred Employees credit for the current calendar year in Kos's flexible spending account, dependent care account and cafeteria plans (the "KOS ACCOUNT PLANS") for any credits or contributions under BPI's flexible spending account, dependent care account and cafeteria plans ("BPI ACCOUNT PLANS"), in the amounts to be provided by BPI in writing to Kos within five (5) Business Days after receipt of a written list from Kos of all Transferred Employees (as such amounts may be increased by further contributions between the date hereof and the applicable Transfer Date and/or reduced by deductions properly made to pay benefits on or before such Transfer Date); provided that BPI, as soon as possible thereafter, transfers to Kos and its Affiliates an amount in cash equal to the excess of the aggregate accumulated contributions to the BPI Account Plans made during the year in which the Closing Date occurs by Transferred Employees over the aggregate reimbursements made for such year from the BPI Account Plans to the Transferred Employees; provided further that the Transferred Employees continue to be subject to their existing contribution elections for the year in which the Closing Date occurs and may not change such elections (except as permitted by the Kos Account Plans). For purposes of this Agreement, "BPI PLAN" means an employee benefit plan of BPI or any of its Affiliates that provided benefits to any Transferred Employee before his or her Transfer Date, and "KOS PLAN" means an employee benefit plan of Kos or any of its Affiliates providing benefits to any Transferred Employee from and after his or her Transfer Date. As of the Transfer Date, Kos -32- shall assume, and hereby does assume, all right, title and interest in and to, and all obligations under, all automobile leases for all Transferred Employees and upon expiration of such leases, Kos shall return or otherwise dispose of the applicable automobile in accordance with the applicable automobile lease terms and thereafter, Kos shall provide such Transferred Employees with new automobiles in accordance with Kos' standard practice. BPI shall transfer to Kos, and Kos shall take from BPI, all right, title and interest in and to the laptop computers utilized by such Transferred Employees (provided, however that BPI shall have the right to remove any and all licensed software and all other proprietary or other confidential information from such laptops). Kos shall, within five (5) Business Days after the Transfer Date, pay to BPI an amount equal to $550.00 for each such laptop computer, which amount represents the fair market value thereof. 7.3 WELFARE BENEFITS GENERALLY. BPI and its Affiliates shall be solely responsible for (i) claims for Welfare Benefits and for workers' compensation, in each case that are incurred by or with respect to any Transferred Employee and his or her beneficiaries and dependents before his or her Transfer Date; (ii) claims relating to COBRA coverage attributable to "qualifying events" with respect to any Transferred Employee and his or her beneficiaries and dependents that occur on or before such Transferred Employee's Transfer Date; (iii) claims for Welfare Benefits and for workers' compensation, in each case that are incurred by or with respect to any Selected Employee who does not become a Transferred Employee and his or her beneficiaries and dependents, regardless of when incurred; and (iv) claims relating to COBRA coverage attributable to "qualifying events" with respect to any Selected Employee who does not become a Transferred Employee and his or her beneficiaries and dependents, regardless of when incurred. Kos and its Affiliates shall be solely responsible for (i) claims for Welfare Benefits and for workers' compensation, in each case that are incurred by or with respect to any Transferred Employee and his or her beneficiaries and dependents on or after his or her Transfer Date, and (ii) claims relating to COBRA Coverage attributable to "qualifying events" with respect to any Transferred Employee and his or her beneficiaries and dependents that occur after such Transferred Employee's Transfer Date. For purposes of the foregoing, a medical/dental claim shall be considered incurred when the services are rendered, the supplies are provided or medication is prescribed, and not when the condition arose; provided that claims relating to a hospital confinement that begins on or before a Transferred Employee's Transfer Date but continues thereafter shall be treated as incurred on or before such Transfer Date. A disability or workers' compensation claim shall be considered incurred on or before the relevant Transferred Employee's Transfer Date if the injury or condition giving rise to the claim occurs on or before such Transfer Date. 7.4 RETENTION OF LIABILITIES BY BPI. Except as specifically provided in this Article 7: (i) neither Kos nor any of its Affiliates shall adopt, become a sponsoring employer of, or have any obligations under or with respect to the BPI Plans, and BPI and its Affiliates shall be solely responsible for any and all liabilities which have arisen or may arise under or in connection with any BPI Plan (including liabilities arising from income or excise tax assessments, participant benefit claims, fiduciary conduct, or under Title IV of ERISA) and (ii) BPI and its Affiliates shall be solely responsible for any and all liabilities relating to or arising out of the employment of any Transferred Employee by BPI and its Affiliates on or before his or her Transfer Date. -33- 7.5 RETENTION OF LIABILITIES BY KOS.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions of this Article 7, BPI and its Affiliates shall remain solely responsible for all Severance Benefits and other liabilities or obligations relating to or arising out of the termination or alleged termination of employment with BPI and its Affiliates of any Selected Employee of BPI or its Affiliates who does not become a Transferred Employee, whether arising under a BPI Plan, an agreement with an individual employee, or applicable Law. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Kos and its Affiliates shall, except as set forth in Section 7.8, be solely responsible for all Severance Benefits and other liabilities and obligations relating to or arising out of the termination or alleged termination of employment with Kos or its Affiliates of any Transferred Employee from and after his or her Transfer Date or of any other person employed by Kos or its Affiliates before or after the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a Transferred Employee is terminated by Kos or any of its Affiliates at any time during the six-month period following the Transferred Employee's Transfer Date, the Transferred Employee shall be entitled to receive from Kos the greater of: (a) the Severance Benefits to which the Transferred Employee would have been entitled under the severance plan maintained by BPI and its Affiliates immediately prior to the Transfer Date or (b) the Severance Benefits to which the Transferred Employee is entitled under the severance plan maintained by Kos and its Affiliates. 7.7 CALENDAR YEAR 2005 BONUSES. BPI will be liable for, and will pay to Transferred Employees, any annual bonuses to which they may become entitled, based upon actual performance, for the year in which the Closing Date occurs, subject to pro-ration to reflect the portion of such year that precedes the applicable Transfer Date, in accordance with the applicable BPI bonus plan(s). Kos will be liable for, and will pay to Transferred Employees, any annual bonuses to which they may become entitled under the applicable Kos bonus plan(s) for such year (disregarding any provision of such bonus plan(s) requiring full-year employment as a condition to receiving a bonus under such plan(s)), subject to pro-ration to reflect the portion of such year that follows the applicable Transfer Date. 7.8 TERMINATION OF AGREEMENTS. If this Agreement is terminated for any reason following the Closing Date, then: (i) no Selected Employee shall thereafter become a Transferred Employee and (ii) BPI may, in its sole discretion, offer to rehire any Transferred Employee, on terms and conditions determined by BPI. -34- ARTICLE 8 CONFIDENTIALITY 8.1 CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. 8.1.1 CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

Such archival copy shall be deemed to be the property of the Disclosing Party, and shall continue to be subject to the provisions of this Article 8. It is understood that receipt of Confidential Information under this Agreement will not limit the Receiving Party from assigning its employees to any particular job or task in any way it may choose, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 8.1.3 PERMITTED DISCLOSURE AND USE. Notwithstanding Section 8.1.2, (i) either Party may disclose Confidential Information belonging to the other Party only to the extent such disclosure is reasonably necessary to: (a) comply with or enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement; (c) comply with Laws; or (c) comply with applicable stock exchange or Nasdaq regulation and (ii) BPI may disclose Confidential Information belonging to Kos related to the Product only to the extent such disclosure is reasonably necessary to obtain or maintain Regulatory Approval of a Product to the extent such disclosure is made to a Governmental Authority.

BPI hereby agrees to save, defend and hold Kos, its Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees harmless from and against any and all Losses arising in connection with any and all charges, complaints, actions, suits, proceedings, hearings, investigations, claims, demands, judgments, orders, decrees, audits, stipulations or injunctions by a Third Party (each a "THIRD PARTY CLAIM") resulting directly from (a) any breach by BPI of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or obligations pursuant to this Agreement, (b) the negligence or willful misconduct by BPI or its Affiliates or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or consultants in performing any obligations under this Agreement, (c) any liabilities of BPI and its Affiliates described in Sections 7.4 and 7.6, (d) any alleged violation of any federal or state Laws relating to the reimbursement, pricing, promotion or advertising of any Product in the Territory resulting from a sale of the Product before the Closing Date, (e) any property damage, personal injury or death caused by Product sold prior to the Closing Date, (f) any non-withholding by Kos of income, withholding or similar taxes (including any penalties, additions, fines, surcharges or interest relating thereto) in respect of any payments made to BPI pursuant to Article 5, including any adjustments asserted or claimed by any Governmental Authority in respect of such taxes and related amounts and (g) any action, suit, claim, proceeding or arbitration set forth on Schedule -43- 10.1.2(e); in each case except to the extent that such Losses are subject to indemnification by Kos pursuant to Section 13.1.2. 13.1.2 INDEMNIFICATION BY KOS. Kos hereby agrees to save, defend and hold BPI, its Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers agents and employees harmless from and against any and all Losses arising in connection with any and all Third Party Claims resulting directly from (a) any breach by Kos of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or obligations pursuant to this Agreement, (b) the negligence or willful misconduct by Kos or its Affiliates or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or consultants in performing any obligations under this Agreement, (c) any liabilities of Kos and its Affiliates described in Sections 7.5 and 7.6, (d) any alleged violation of any federal or state Laws relating to the reimbursement, pricing, promotion or advertising of any Product in the Territory resulting from a sale of the Product by Kos after the Closing Date, or (e) any representations or warranties made by Kos and/or its Affiliates to its customers or users with respect to the Product other than representations expressly provided or approved by BPI in writing and representations consistent with the FDA approved indicated uses of the Product; in each case except to the extent that such Losses are subject to indemnification by BPI pursuant to Section 13.1.1. 13.1.3 The rights of indemnification under this Section 13.1 shall be subject to the provisions of Sections 13.2 through 13.8 and Section 3.8.8. 13.2 NOTICE OF CLAIM. All indemnification claims in respect of any indemnitee seeking indemnity under Section 13.1 (collectively, the "INDEMNITEES" and each an "INDEMNITEE") will be made solely by the corresponding Party (the "INDEMNIFIED PARTY"). The Indemnified Party will give the indemnifying Party (the "INDEMNIFYING Party") prompt written notice (an "INDEMNIFICATION CLAIM NOTICE") of any Losses and any Third Party Claim or the discovery of any fact upon which such Indemnified Party intends to base a request for indemnification under Section 13.1, but in no event will the Indemnifying Party be liable for any Losses that result from any delay in providing such notice which materially prejudices the defense of such Third Party Claim. Each Indemnification Claim Notice must contain a description of the claim and the nature and amount of such Loss (to the extent that the nature and amount of such Loss are known at such time). Together with the Indemnification Claim Notice, the Indemnified Party will furnish promptly to the Indemnifying Party copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by any Indemnitee in connection with the Third Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall not be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party to the extent any admission or statement made by the Indemnified Party materially prejudices the defense of such Third Party Claim. 13.3 CONTROL OF DEFENSE. At its option, the Indemnifying Party may assume the defense of any Third Party Claim subject to indemnification as provided for in Sections 13.1.1 and 13.1.2, as applicable, by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days after the Indemnifying Party's receipt of an Indemnification Claim Notice. Upon assuming the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may appoint as lead counsel in the defense of the Third Party Claim any legal counsel it selects. Should the Indemnifying Party assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party will not be liable to the Indemnified Party or any other Indemnitee for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such -44- Indemnified Party or other Indemnitee in connection with the analysis, defense or settlement of the Third Party Claim. 13.4 RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN DEFENSE. Without limiting Section 13.3, any Indemnitee will be entitled to participate in, but not control, the defense of a Third Party Claim for which it has sought indemnification hereunder and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose; provided, however, that such employment will be at the Indemnitee's own expense unless (a) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Indemnifying Party in writing, or (b) the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense and employ counsel in accordance with Section 13.3 (in which case the Indemnified Party will control the defense). 13.5 SETTLEMENT. With respect to any Losses relating solely to the payment of money damages in connection with a Third Party Claim and that will not result in the Indemnitee becoming subject to injunctive or other relief or otherwise adversely affect the business of the Indemnitee in any manner, and as to which the Indemnifying Party will have acknowledged in writing the obligation to indemnify the Indemnitee hereunder, the Indemnifying Party will have the sole right to consent to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Loss, on such terms as the Indemnifying Party, in its reasonable discretion, will deem appropriate (provided, however that such terms shall include a complete and unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all liability with respect thereto), and will transfer to the Indemnified Party all amounts which said Indemnified Party will be liable to pay prior to the time of the entry of judgment. With respect to all other Losses in connection with Third Party Claims, where the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 13.3, the Indemnifying Party will have authority to consent to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Loss provided it obtains the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent will be at the Indemnified Party's reasonable discretion). The Indemnifying Party that has assumed the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 13.3 will not be liable for any settlement or other disposition of a Loss by an Indemnitee that is reached without the written consent of such Indemnifying Party. Regardless of whether the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Third Party Claim, no Indemnitee will admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, any Third Party Claim without first offering to the Indemnifying Party the opportunity to assume the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 13.3. 13.6 COOPERATION. If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will, and will cause each other Indemnitee to, cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof and will furnish such records, information and testimony, provide such witnesses and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested in connection with such Third Party Claim. Such cooperation will include access during normal business hours afforded to the Indemnifying Party to, and reasonable retention by the Indemnified Party of, records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim, and making Indemnitees and other employees and agents available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder, and the Indemnifying Party will reimburse the Indemnified Party for all its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with such cooperation. -45- 13.7 EXPENSES OF THE INDEMNIFIED PARTY. Except as provided above, the reasonable and verifiable costs and expenses, including fees and disbursements of counsel, incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with any Third Party Claim will be reimbursed on a calendar quarter basis by the Indemnifying Party, without prejudice to the Indemnifying Party's right to contest the Indemnified Party's right to indemnification and subject to refund in the event the Indemnifying Party is ultimately held not to be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party. 13.8 PRODUCT LIABILITY. 13.8.1 Subject to Sections 13.1.1 and 13.1.2, each of BPI and Kos shall be responsible for Losses from Third Party Claims resulting directly or indirectly from the manufacture, use, handling, storage, sale or other disposition of a Product (including, without limitation, those Third Party Claims that involve death or bodily injury (or allegations thereof) to any individual or any property other than intellectual property) (each, a "PRODUCT CLAIM"). All Product Claims shall be borne ****. 13.8.2 Each Party shall give the other prompt written notice of any Product Claim (actual or potential), but the omission of such notice shall not relieve either Party from its obligations under this Section 13.8, except to the extent the other Party can establish actual prejudice and direct damages as a result thereof. Kos shall assume the lead role in the defense of such Product Claim based on the specific Product subject to the Claim; provided, however, that all costs and expenses of such defense shall be borne ****. Kos shall consult with BPI on all material aspects of, and shall obtain the prior written consent of BPI (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, refused, conditioned or delayed) in respect of any material decisions to be taken with regard to, the defense, including without limitation settlement of such Product Claim, and BPI shall have a full opportunity to participate in decision-making process with respect to the strategy of such defense, and the Parties shall cooperate fully with each other in connection therewith. BPI shall also have the right to participate in the defense of any Product Claim utilizing attorneys of its choice, at its own expense. In furtherance of the Parties' cooperation, Kos will consult with BPI regarding strategic decisions, including without limitation the retention of counsel and defense of each Product Claim. Kos will otherwise keep BPI fully informed of the status and progress of the defense and any settlement discussions concerning the Product Claim. 13.9 ADDITIONAL BPI INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS. 13.9.1 LOST PROFITS CLAIMS. In addition to BPI's indemnification obligations pursuant to Section 13.1.1, BPI hereby agrees to indemnify Kos for Lost Profits resulting directly from a Supply Failure (a "LOST PROFITS CLAIM"); except to the extent that such amounts are subject to indemnification by Kos pursuant to Section 13.1.2 and in each case other than Third Party Claims (which are covered pursuant to Section 13.1.1). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein the maximum aggregate liability of BPI under this Section 13.9 shall not exceed the Lost Profits Cap in effect as of the date of the occurrence of the event resulting in the Lost Profits Claim. The provisions of this Section 13.9.1 shall be Kos's sole remedy with respect to any and all claims for Lost Profits. -46- 13.9.2 LOST PROFITS CLAIMS. The provisions of Sections 13.2 to 13.7 shall not apply to Lost Profits Claims. Any Lost Profits Claim shall be asserted by Kos promptly upon Kos becoming aware of a Supply Failure (but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days following Kos becoming aware of such Supply Failure (provided that Kos's failure to provide such notice in a timely manner shall not affect Kos's right to assert a Lost Profits Claim except to the extent that BPI is prejudiced thereby)) by providing BPI with written notice thereof. Within ninety (90) days of the discontinuance of a Supply Failure, Kos shall provide BPI with a good faith estimate of the amount of the Lost Profits Claim. For a period of sixty (60) days from and after BPI's receipt of Kos's good faith estimate, the Parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve such claim for indemnification, including any amounts due. If the Parties are unable to resolve such claim, the dispute shall be subject to resolution pursuant to Section 14.1. 13.10 INSURANCE. Each Party will obtain and keep in force, through self insurance or otherwise, in a form reasonably acceptable to the other Party hereto, insurance in scope and amount as required by law applicable to a Party's activities hereunder and such additional amounts as may be reasonably necessary to cover such Party's indemnity obligations under this Agreement with scope and coverage as is normal and customary in the biotechnology/pharmaceutical industry generally for parties similarly situated, but in no event in an amount less than ****. It is understood that such insurance will not be construed to limit a Party's liability with respect to its indemnification obligations under this Article 13. Each Party will, except to the extent self insured, provide to the other Party upon request a certificate evidencing the insurance such Party is required to obtain and keep in force under this Article 13. Such certificate will provide that such insurance will not expire or be cancelled or modified without at least thirty (30) days' prior notice to the other Party. ARTICLE 14 DISPUTE RESOLUTION 14.1 DISPUTES. For all matters under this Agreement, the Parties hereby agree that the dispute shall be referred to the Chief Executive Officer of Kos and the Chief Executive Officer of BPI (the "REPRESENTATIVES"). If any such matter has not been resolved within thirty (30) Business Days of such referral to the Representatives either Party may invoke the provisions of Section 14.2 for such dispute. No dispute resolution procedure set forth in this Agreement shall be construed as an agreement to arbitrate under any federal or state arbitration law, including but not limited to the Federal Arbitration Act, and shall not deprive a court of competent jurisdiction from resolving any dispute arising under, or related to, this Agreement. In the event of any dispute between the Parties arising in connection with Article 9 of this Agreement, the Parties agree that the dispute resolution described under this Article 14 will be conducted with sufficient dispatch to prevent loss of patent rights in the disputed subject matter. 14.2 LITIGATION. Any dispute that is not resolved as provided in the preceding Section 14.1, whether before or after termination of this Agreement, may be submitted by either Party to any court of competent jurisdiction in the State of New York. 14.3 INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, either Party will have the right to seek temporary injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction in the State of New York as may be available to such Party under the laws and rules -47- applicable in such jurisdiction with respect to any matters arising out of the other Party's performance of its obligations under this Agreement.
