As additional consideration for the rights under the Patents, OPKO Trademarks, and OPKO Technology granted to VF in this Agreement, VF shall pay non-refundable and non-creditable milestone payments to OPKO in the amounts and upon the occurrence of the events set forth below. Each such payment shall be made within *** Business Days of the achievement or occurrence of the milestone event. Each milestone payment will be payable only one time. For purposes of clarity, more than one of the Net Sales and regulatory approval milestones may be met during the same Agreement Year and, in that case, each such milestone would be payable. For example, if during one Agreement Year there were Net Sales of the Product in the Territory of ***, and it was the first Agreement Year in which Net Sales of the Product in the Territory exceeded ***, *** and ***, then VF would owe all of the ***, the *** and the *** milestone payments and no similar milestone payments would be due in any following Agreement Year if the Net Sales in the Territory exceeded ***.

5.The Parties have agreed to delete and replace the existing Section 5.4 with the following new Section 5.4:

extent the aggregate Royalty Payments due for the applicable period are below the following amounts, ***
Period Minimum Royalty
The first *** consecutive Calendar Quarters
beginning on the first day of the first Calendar Quarter after the Product First
Commercial Sale, and each *** consecutive Calendar Quarter
thereafter ***



For purposes of clarity, if the total Royalty Payments due under Section 5.3 with respect to each Minimum Royalty period are greater than the applicable Minimum Royalty for the same period, no Minimum Royalty amount shall be payable by VF with respect to such period. To the extent that the total Royalty Payments due under Section 5.3 with respect to a period are less than the Minimum Royalty for the same period, VF shall pay OPKO the difference between the total Royalty Payments and the Minimum Royalty. The calculation for the first period to determine if anything is due under this Section 5.4 is made after *** Calendar Quarters based on the total Royalty Payments due under Section 5.3 with respect to such *** Calendar Quarters when compared to the Minimum Royalty of ***. Thereafter, the calculation for subsequent periods is made for periods of *** Calendar Quarters each, comparing Royalty Payments due under Section 5.3 with respect to the period to the Minimum Royalty of ***. The Minimum Royalty obligation under this Section 5.4 shall terminate as of the end of the applicable *** Calendar Quarter period ending immediately prior to the Calendar Quarter in which: (a) a Competitive Product comes on the market in at least *** Major Countries and there is a Royalty Payment Reduction in *** country or (b) the Royalty Term expires for a Product in at least *** Major Countries.
