The receiving Party further acknowledges and agrees that in the event of any actual or threatened breach of this Agreement, the disclosing Party may have no adequate remedy at law and, accordingly, that the disclosing Party will have the right to seek an immediate injunction enjoining any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, as *** Certain confidential information contained in this document, marked with 3 asterisks, has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 24b-2 of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended. 11 well as the right to pursue any and all other rights and remedies available at law or in equity for such breach or threatened breach. 7.4 Return of Confidential Information. Upon the request of the disclosing Party, the receiving Party will promptly return to the disclosing Party or, upon the disclosing Party's written approval, destroy all material embodying Confidential Information of the disclosing Party in its possession or under its control, including all copies thereof; provided that each Party may, at such Party's expense, make and retain one (1) copy of the other Party's Confidential Information for legal archival purposes only. 7.5 Disclosure of Agreement, Publicity, and Publications. Except as expressly provided otherwise in Section 7.3, neither GSK nor ALLERGAN will release to any Third Party or publish in any way any non-public information with regard to the terms of this Agreement or concerning their cooperation without the prior written consent of the other, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Nothing in the foregoing, however, will prohibit a Party from making disclosures to the extent deemed necessary under applicable federal or state securities laws or any rule or regulation of any nationally recognized securities exchange. In such event, however, the disclosing Party will use good faith efforts to consult with the non-disclosing Party prior to such disclosure and will request confidential treatment to the extent available. Subject to the foregoing, ALLERGAN will issue a press release, public statement, or disclosure regarding this Agreement, which press release, public statement or disclosure will be mutually agreed upon by the Parties. ALLERGAN acknowledges and agrees that GSK may publish the results of clinical trials conducted by GSK with the BOTOX after the Effective Date on GSK's Clinical Trial Register and that such publication will not be a breach of the confidentiality obligations provided in Section 7.2. ALLERGAN agrees to cooperate with GSK in such effort, including using commercially reasonable efforts to provide GSK with the protocols, results, data, and other information relating to all clinical trials conducted by GSK with BOTOX in ALLERGAN's possession that GSK reasonably requires to be published on GSK's Clinical Trial Register. 7.6 ALLERGAN Data Protections. GSK agrees and understands that ALLERGAN Confidential Information, including but not limited to data, disclosed to GSK is very sensitive and ALLERGAN would not enter into this Agreement without additional assurances from GSK with respect to GSK's use of such Confidential Information of ALLERGAN or possible disclosure of such Confidential Information to ALLERGAN's competitors. Accordingly GSK will not use any such Confidential Information in connection with any botulinum toxin research and/or development other than as provided under this Agreement or as provided in any other agreement between the Parties relating to BOTOX. 7.7.

All obligations of confidentiality and non-use imposed under this Article 7 will expire *** after the date of expiration or termination of this Agreement, except that Article 7 obligations of confidentiality and non-use will continue thereafter with respect to manufacturing and regulatory information, including without limitation filings with regulatory bodies. 8.

This Agreement by and between the Parties hereto, is both a final expression of the Parties' agreement and a complete and exclusive statement with respect to all of its terms. The exhibits referred to in this Agreement are incorporated herein and made a part of this Agreement by this reference. This Agreement supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements and communications, whether oral, written or otherwise, concerning any and all matters contained herein; provided, however, that the confidentiality provisions of Article 7 are in addition to and do not supersede the terms and conditions of the Confidential Disclosure Agreement between Allergan Inc. and GlaxoSmithKline Research & Development Limited, an Affiliate of GSK, dated October 6, 2004, and any amendments thereto. No rights or licenses are granted or deemed granted hereunder or in connection herewith, other than those rights expressly granted in this Agreement. No trade customs, courses of dealing, or courses of performance by the Parties will be relevant to modify, supplement, or explain any term used in this Agreement.

The Parties have no ownership interest in the other and their relationship, as established by this Agreement, is solely that of independent contractors. This Agreement does not create any partnership, joint venture, or similar business relationship between the Parties. Neither Party is a legal representative of the other Party, and neither Party can assume or create any obligation, representation, warranty, or guarantee, express or implied, on behalf of the other Party for any purpose whatsoever. 8.3. Non-Waiver. The failure of a Party to exercise, enforce, or insist upon strict performance of any provisions of this Agreement, or rights of or arising out of this Agreement, will neither impair that provision or right nor constitute a waiver of that provision or right, in whole or in part, and will not be construed to be a waiver of such rights or provisions, or a waiver by such Party to thereafter enforce such rights or provision or any other rights or provisions hereunder. No waiver will be effective unless made in writing and signed by the waiving Party. 8.4 Assignment. This Agreement is binding upon and inures to the benefit of the Parties, and to their permitted successors and assigns. No Party may assign or delegate any or all of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party except to an Affiliate. Any assignment or delegation, or any other transfer or change of control by sale, acquisition, merger, or otherwise, or attempt at the same, other than to an Affiliate, made in the absence of such prior written consent will be void and without effect; provided, however, that in the event of the foregoing, such written consent will not be unreasonably withheld. If a Party assigns this Agreement to an Affiliate, such Party will also promptly inform the other Party and guarantee the performance by its Affiliate of all of such Party's obligations under this Agreement. Either Party may, however, with notice, but without consent and at its sole discretion, assign all of the rights and obligations under this Agreement (excluding however, with regard to ALLERGAN, any of its rights under Section 4.4) to a Third Party in connection the transfer or sale of all or substantially all of its business, or in the event of its merger or consolidation or change in control or similar transaction. *** Certain confidential information contained in this document, marked with 3 asterisks, has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 24b-2 of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended. 13 8.5 No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is neither expressly nor impliedly made for the benefit of any Person other than those executing it. 8.6 Severability. If, for any reason, any part of this Agreement is adjudicated invalid, unenforceable, or illegal by a regulatory authority or court of competent jurisdiction, such adjudication will not affect or impair, in whole or in part, the validity, enforceability, or legality of any remaining portions of this Agreement. All remaining portions will remain in full force and effect as if the original Agreement had been executed without the invalidated, unenforceable, or illegal part. 8.7 Notices. Any notice to be given under this Agreement must be in writing and delivered either in person, by any method of mail (postage prepaid) requiring return receipt, or by overnight courier or facsimile confirmed thereafter by any of the foregoing, to the Party to be notified at its address given below, or at any address such Party has previously designated by prior written notice to the other.
