Sodium Free Glucosamine Chondroitin

For the avoidance of any doubt, this Amendment shall not affect Perrigo’s exclusivity rights in any other Product.

Commencing on the Amendment Effective Date and continuing thereafter during the Term of this Agreement, Perrigo will pay SCOLR Pharma in the manner described below a royalty on Perrigo’s sales of each Product in the amount equal to twenty (20%) of Perrigo’s Modified Net Profits of the Product.

4. Section 5.1 is hereby deleted in its entirety:

5. Except as specifically set forth herein, the Agreement, as amended by Amendment Number 1 and Amendment Number 2, shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. Unless otherwise defined, capitalized terms used in this Amendment shall have the meanings assigned in the Agreement.
