The 1995 Agreement has been terminated. B. Britannia's request for Orphan Drug Designation by the United States Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") for the Product was granted under the U. S.

Britannia has developed certain know-how regarding the registration, manufacturing and marketing of the Product (as hereafter defined, the "Know-How"), and is developing other forms of the Product for intranasal and other routes of administration. D. Prior to the execution hereof, Mylan has conducted a customary "due diligence" review of information within the control of Britannia relating to the Product, the Orphan Drug Designation, and the 1 Know-How which Mylan deemed necessary and relevant to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

FURTHER ASSURANCES Each of the parties shall, from time to time during the term of this Agreement, upon request by the other, execute and deliver all such further documents or instruments as may be required in order to give effect to the purpose and intent of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of the parties hereunder are undertaken with a principal objective of complying with all pertinent provisions of applicable laws, orders and regulations relating to the manufacture, use or sale of pharmaceutical products, and the parties shall take all necessary action as may be required to comply with such provisions. 13.
