(b)           prosecute all pending and new patent applications and defend against oppositions filed against the grant of letters patent for such applications, in those countries where a Party files patent applications;
 
(c)           upon and after the grant of any letters patent in any country where it files patent applications, maintain such letters patent in force by duly filing all necessary papers and paying any fees required for such purpose by the patent laws of the particular country in which such letters patent was granted; and
 
(d)           obtain such patent extensions or restorations of patent terms as may become available from time to time in any country in which are issued or filed such patents or patent applications.
 
VI.  INFRINGEMENT BY OR CLAIMS AGAINST THIRD PARTIES
 
6.1           Notices.  Each Party will advise the Joint Steering Committee promptly upon its becoming aware of: (a) any unlicensed activities which such Party believes may be an actual or impending infringement in the Territory of any patent or other proprietary right owned or applied for by it or the other Party and related to the Compound, an Additional Compound, a Product, an Additional Product or the development, manufacture, use, importation, or sale thereof; (b) any

attack on or appeal of the grant of any patent owned or applied for by it or the other Party and related to the Compound, Additional Compound, a Product, an Additional Product or the development, manufacture, use, or sale thereof; (c) any application for patent by, or the grant of a patent to, a Third Party in respect of rights which may be related to the Compound, Additional Compound, a Product, or an Additional Product so as to potentially materially affect the development, manufacture, use, importation, or sale thereof or which may claim the same subject matter as or conflict with any patent owned or applied for by it or the other Party and related to the Compound, Additional Compound, a Product, an Additional Product, or the development, manufacture, use, importation, or sale thereof; or (d) any application made for a compulsory license under any patent owned or applied for by it or the other Party and related to the Compound, Additional Compound, a Product, an Additional Product or the development, manufacture, use, importation, or sale thereof.
 
6.2           Control of Actions.  The Joint Steering Committee will determine whether or not to take whatever legal or other action is required in response to activities requiring notice under Section 6.1 (“Protective Action”).  If the Joint Steering Committee determines that such Protective Action is warranted, then, unless the Joint Steering Committee determines otherwise, GSK shall, at GSK’s expense, commence, prosecute and control such Protective Action, including the settlement thereof and the granting of any licenses or sublicense under any Valeant Intellectual Property or Program Improvement licensed to GSK hereunder; provided, however, that the out-of-pocket expenses of the Parties for Protective Actions pursued in the Collaboration Territory, including the expenses of legal counsel, shall be included as an Operating Expense as provided in Exhibit A and the out-of-pocket expenses of the Parties for Protective Actions pursued outside the Collaboration Territory shall be borne entirely by GSK.   VALEANT will  cooperate with GSK in such action, including being joined as a Party to such action if such joinder is necessary for standing.  Each Party may be represented by counsel of its own selection at its own expense in such Protective Action.  Any recovery obtained as a result of such Protective Action, whether by judgment, award, decree, or settlement, will, after reimbursement of the Parties for their reasonable costs and expenses associated with such Protective Action, be included in and added to the total gross amounts invoiced for sales of Products if such action relates to the Product (or of Additional Products if such action relates to an Additional Product) for purposes of calculating the Net Profit share under the terms of Section 2.3.1 or royalties under the terms of Section  2.3.2.  To the extent such recovery is insufficient to reimburse the Parties’ associated reasonable costs and expenses fully, then a Party’s share of the recovery will be the product of the total amount recovered with that Party’s reasonable costs and expenses divided by the sum of both Parties’ reasonable costs and expenses.
 
6.3           Trademark Infringement.  Notice regarding potential infringement of and Control of any Protective Action relating to any Valeant Trademark or GSK Trademark related to the Compound, an Additional Compound, a Product, an Additional Product or the development, manufacture, use, importation, or sale thereof will be addressed in accordance with the applicable Trademark License Agreement.

7.2           Payments to Third Parties.  If a Third Party has or receives a patent in any country that covers the development, manufacture, sale, importation, or use of the Compound anywhere in the Territory and the Joint Steering Committee determines that GSK should obtain a license to such patent as to one or more Products or Additional Products in one or more countries for a royalty or other payment to such Third Party (including that any Product or Additional Product at issue cannot be reasonably manufactured differently so as to avoid the requirement), GSK may enter into such a license agreement, subject to the approval of the Joint Steering Committee, and may offset *** of any such royalties or payments to such Third Parties against any share of Net Profits or royalties that would otherwise have been due to VALEANT for such Product or Additional Product in such country pursuant to Sections 2.3.1 and 2.3.2 *** of such Net Profits or royalties due to Valeant.

PORTIONS OF THIS EXHIBIT HAVE BEEN OMITTED PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION (THE "COMMISSION"). THE OMISSIONS HAVE BEEN INDICATED BY ASTERISKS ("***"), AND THE OMITTED TEXT HAS BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION.

 
GSK in Articles VIII and IX above; except to the extent such Third Party Claims fall within the scope of VALEANT’s indemnification obligations set forth in Section 12.2 below or result from the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of a VALEANT Indemnitee.  For the avoidance of doubt, Product Liability Claims are not subject to this Section 12.1 and are governed by the provisions of Section 12.4.
 
12.2           Indemnification of GSK.  VALEANT shall indemnify and hold harmless each of GSK, its Affiliates and sublicensees and the directors, officers and employees of GSK, its Affiliates and sublicensees and the successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (the “GSK Indemnitees”), from and against any and all Liabilities from any Third Party Claims incurred by any GSK Indemnitee, arising from, or occurring as a result of (a) activities related to the research, development, manufacture, use, marketing, distribution, importation or sale of any Compound, Product, Additional Compound and Additional Products by VALEANT, its Affiliates or sublicensees in the Territory; and/or (b) any material breach of any representations, warranties or covenants by VALEANT in Article VIII and IX above, except to the extent such Third Party Claims fall within the scope of GSK’s indemnification obligations set forth in Section 12.1 above or result from the gross negligence or intentional  misconduct of an GSK Indemnitee.  For the avoidance of doubt, Product Liability Claims are not subject to this Section 12.2 and are governed by the provisions of Section 12.4.
 
12.3           Procedure.  A Party that intends to claim indemnification under this Article XII (the “Indemnitee”) shall promptly notify the other Party (the “Indemnitor”) in writing of the assertion or the commencement of Third Party Claim and will provide the Indemnitor such information with respect thereto that the Indemnitor may reasonably request.  The Indemnitor shall be entitled to control and appoint lead counsel for such defense, in each case at its expense.  If the Indemnitor shall assume the control of the defense of any Third Party Claim in accordance with the provisions of this Section 12.3, the Indemnitor shall obtain the prior consent of the Indemnitee (which shall not be unreasonably withheld) before entering into any settlement of such Third Party Claim.  The failure to deliver written notice to the Indemnitor within a reasonable time after the commencement of any action with respect to a Third Party Claim shall not relieve the Indemnitor of its obligations under this Article XII unless the delay or failure is prejudicial to its ability to defend such action.  The Indemnitee under this Section 12.3 shall cooperate fully with the Indemnitor and its legal representatives in the investigation of any action with respect to a Third Party Claim covered by this indemnification.
 
12.4           Product Liability.
 
12.4.1                      Each Party shall notify the other Party as promptly as practicable if any Third Party Claim is commenced or threatened against such Party alleging product liability, product defect, design, packaging or labeling defect, failure to warn or any similar action relating to the use or safety of Compound, Products, Additional Compounds and Additional Products (a “Product Liability Claim”).  For clarity, a Product Liability Claim will not be deemed to include any Third Party Claims relating to a manufacturing defect of Compound, Products, Additional

Compounds and Additional Products and Sections 12.1 and 12.2 shall apply to any such Third Party Claims.
 
12.4.2                      To the extent that either the GSK Indemnitees or the VALEANT Indemnitees incur, suffer, or are faced with any Product Liability Claims with respect to the Product in the Collaboration Territory, VALEANT and GSK shall share such Product Liability Claim based on the average percentage share of Net Profits as provided in Section 2.3.1 for the associated Product over the three (3) months immediately preceding the date on which such alleged injury occurred or arose, such that VALEANT shall be liable for the percentage of such Liabilities arising from Product Liability Claims equal to such percentage share of Net Profit, as applicable, and GSK shall be liable for the remainder of such Liabilities.  To the extent one Party shall have paid Third Party Claims in excess of the amount provided pursuant to this Section 12.4.2, the other Party shall promptly reimburse such overpaying Party for such excess amount.
 
12.4.3                      To the extent that either the GSK Indemnitees or the VALEANT Indemnitees incur, suffer, or are faced with any Product Liability Claims with respect to the Product in the GSK Territory or any Additional Products, GSK shall be solely liable for all Liabilities arising from such Product Liability Claims, except that VALEANT shall be liable for any Liabilities arising from such Product Liability Claims to the extent such Liabilities are due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of VALEANT, or the breach by VALEANT of this Agreement, including any breach of its representations, warranties, covenants or obligations under this Agreement.
 
12.4.4                      GSK shall have the right to control and appoint lead counsel for the defense of any such Product Liability Claims, and any fees incurred in the defense of such claims will be considered Liabilities of the Product Liability Claims which will be shared based upon the formula set forth in Sections 12.4.2 and 12.4.3 above.
 
12.5           Insurance.  In addition to its duty to indemnify, each Party will procure product liability insurance in commercially reasonable amounts in view of its activities.  Alternatively, either Party may establish a program of self insurance for the same risks.  In either event, as reasonably requested in writing by the other Party not more than once every twelve (12) months, each Party will supply the other Party with evidence of such coverage during the time any Product is being developed, commercialized or sold by such Party or any of its Affiliates, sublicensees, designees or agents.
 
12.6           Disclaimer of Consequential Damages.  IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER VALEANT OR GSK BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING UNDER OR AS A RESULT OF THIS AGREEMENT (OR THE TERMINATION HEREOF) INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE LOSS OF PROSPECTIVE PROFITS OR ANTICIPATED SALES.

VALEANT PHARMACEUTICALS AND GLAXOSMITHKLINE ANNOUNCE
WORLDWIDE COLLABORATION AGREEMENT FOR RETIGABINE
 

 
·
Retigabine is a potentially significant advance for treatment of epilepsy
 
·
GSK to make upfront payment to Valeant of $125 million
 
·
Valeant to share up to 50 percent of net profits in U.S., Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Puerto Rico and receive up to a 20 percent royalty on net sales throughout rest of world

ALISO VIEJO, California and LONDON, UK, August 28, 2008 – Valeant Pharmaceuticals International (NYSE: VRX) and GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) today announced that they have entered into an exclusive worldwide collaboration agreement for the investigational drug retigabine, a first in class neuronal potassium channel opener for treatment of adult epilepsy patients with refractory partial onset seizures.  Retigabine has shown robust efficacy and safety as demonstrated in two large completed Phase III trials conducted in patients with refractory epilepsy receiving treatment with up to three antiepileptic drugs (AEDs).  Valeant and GSK plan to file a New Drug Application in the U.S. and a Marketing Authorization Application in Europe by early 2009.  The retigabine program also includes an ongoing study in patients with post-herpetic neuralgia (PHN), a painful and common complication of shingles.
 
Under the terms of the agreement, Valeant will grant GSK worldwide development and commercialization rights to retigabine, VRX698 and the other back-up compounds from the potassium channel opener discovery program in exchange for an upfront payment of $125 million to Valeant.  Additionally, GSK will pay Valeant up to $545 million based on the achievement of certain regulatory, development and commercialization milestones and the development of additional indications for retigabine.  Valeant will co-commercialize with GSK and will share up to 50 percent of net profits within the U.S., Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Puerto Rico, and will receive up to a 20 percent royalty on net sales of retigabine outside those regions.  The two companies will jointly fund all global research and development expenses for retigabine, and GSK will completely fund the development of VRX698 and the other back-up compounds from the potassium channel

opener discovery program.  Valeant could receive up to an additional $150 million based on the achievement of certain regulatory, development and commercial milestones for VRX698 and the back-up compounds and double-digit royalties on worldwide sales.
 
“We were pleased with the significant interest shown in retigabine and we have selected GSK as a collaborator because we believe they are ideally suited and strongly committed to the continued development of this important compound,” stated J. Michael Pearson, chairman and chief executive officer of Valeant.  “GSK’s development expertise and strong commercial infrastructure will be critical to maximizing the worldwide potential of retigabine.  We believe this collaboration will strengthen our ability to bring this medicine to patients suffering from epilepsy and a variety of other conditions.”
 
GSK is looking forward to working with Valeant to provide important medicines like retigabine to the medical community and to the patients we serve,” commented Steve Stefano, senior vice president, GSK U.S. NeuroHealth Division.  “There is a significant need for novel anti-epileptic drugs, as almost one-third of patients with epilepsy continue to experience seizures despite treatment with currently available medications.  We believe that retigabine could potentially play a significant role in improving the management of epilepsy and is a welcome addition to GSK’s portfolio.”
 
About Epilepsy
 
Epilepsy, defined by recurrent unprovoked seizures, is a change in sensation, awareness, or behavior brought about by an electrical disturbance in the brain. The kind of seizure a person has depends on which part and how much of the brain is affected by the disturbance that produces seizures.  Primary generalized seizures are those that involve the entire brain from the outset, while partial onset seizures begin in a focal area of the cerebral cortex.  In most cases the cause of epilepsy is unknown.   Epilepsy affects over 50 million people of all ages worldwide.  Approximately 30 percent of people with epilepsy experience seizures that are not adequately controlled with currently prescribed AEDs - the results of which are substantial deleterious effects on individual health and quality of life.
 
 
About Potassium Channel Openers
 
Potassium channels are one of the voltage-gated ion channels found in neuronal cells and are an important determinant of neuronal activity.  Numerous ion-channel mutations have been linked to epilepsy, and many antiepileptic medications modulate sodium or calcium channels. Potassium channels have been demonstrated in animal models to be critical in regulating membrane potential.
 
Retigabine is the first potassium channel opener to reach late stage clinical development.  It is believed that by facilitating the opening of specific neuronal potassium channels, retigabine causes a hyperpolarizing shift in the potassium current and thereby reduces the excitability of neuronal cells.  Dampening of neuronal excitability is an important mechanism for reducing the potential for seizures.

About the Retigabine Program
 
Following a Special Protocol Assessment by the FDA, two Phase III trials of retigabine were initiated in 2005.  RESTORE 1 (Retigabine Efficacy and Safety Trial for partial Onset Epilepsy) was conducted at approximately 50 sites, mainly in the Americas (U.S., Central/South America), and RESTORE 2 was conducted at approximately 70 sites, mainly in Europe.
 
RESTORE 1 evaluated a 1200 mg daily dose of retigabine (the highest dose in the RESTORE program) versus placebo, and RESTORE 2 evaluated a 600 mg and 900mg daily dose of retigabine versus placebo as adjunctive therapy in patients taking stable doses of one to three additional AEDs.  At all three doses tested, retigabine demonstrated statistically significant (p < 0.01) results on the primary efficacy endpoints important for regulatory review by both the FDA and the European Medicines Evaluation Agency.
 
In RESTORE 1, the median reduction in 28-day total partial seizure frequency from baseline to the end of the double-blind period (the FDA primary efficacy endpoint) in the intent-to-treat (ITT) population was 44.3% (n=151) and 17.5% (n=150) in the retigabine 1200 mg arm and placebo arm of the trial, respectively.  The responder rate, defined as ≥ a 50% reduction in 28-day total partial seizure frequency during maintenance (the dual primary efficacy endpoint required for the European submission) was 55.5% (n=119) and 22.6% (n=137) in the retigabine 1200 mg group and the placebo group of the trial, respectively.
 
In RESTORE 2, the median reduction in 28-day total partial seizure frequency from baseline to the end of the double-blind period in the ITT population was 39.9% (n=178), 27.9% (n=181) and 15.9% (n=179) in the retigabine 900 mg group, retigabine 600 mg group and the placebo group of the trial, respectively.  The 50% responder rate during the maintenance phase was 47.0% (n=149), 38.6% (n=158) and 18.9% (n=164) in the retigabine 900 mg, retigabine 600 mg and the placebo arms of the trial, respectively.
 
The most common side effects associated with retigabine in the RESTORE trials included dizziness, somnolence, fatigue, confusion, dysarthria (slurring of speech), ataxia (loss of muscle coordination), blurred vision, tremor, and nausea. Urinary bladder effects, whilst monitored during the studies, were uncommonly reported.
 
In November 2007, Valeant initiated a Phase II clinical trial of retigabine for the treatment of pain associated with PHN, a painful and common complication of shingles.  Valeant is also currently developing a modified release formulation in order to provide a more convenient dosing schedule, as well as evaluating the potential use of retigabine in treating other conditions.
