(as defined below) of the Milestone Payment Amount, if any, at the times and in the manner set
forth below.

1. Payment Obligation. If the Milestone occurs prior to the expiration of a Sales


Measurement Period, then, on or prior to the Milestone Payment Date, Sano shall pay, or cause
to be paid, to Sellers an aggregate lump-sum cash payment equal to the applicable Milestone
Payment Amount.

provide to the Sellers a written statement of Net Sales and Imputed Net Sales for such period
(“Milestone Statement”), setting forth the Sano’s calculation of Net Sales and Imputed Net Sales
with respect to such Sales Measurement Period, including reasonable evidence for support
thereof. At the sole expense of the Sellers, Sano shall reasonably cooperate in good faith with
the Sellers and their authorized representatives in connection with the Sellers’ review of such

2
Milestone Statement. Any of the Sellers shall be entitled to object to the calculation of the
amount of Net Sales and/or Imputed Net Sales for each Sales Measurement Period by delivery to
Sano of written notice of objection, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such
disagreement, including Sellers’ determination of any amount therein that is disputed (an
“Objection Notice”). If no Seller delivers an Objection Notice to Sano within thirty (30) days
following the Sellers’ receipt of the Milestone Statement for the particular Sales Measurement
Period, then the determination by the Sano of the Net Sales and the Imputed Net Sales with
respect to such Sales Milestone Period as set forth in the Milestone Statement shall be final and
binding on the parties. If the Sellers timely deliver an Objection Notice to Sano, then any dispute
with respect to the applicable Sales Milestone Period shall be resolved in good faith, and, the
parties cannot resolve such dispute, the parties shall engage, at Sano’s expense, an Independent
Accountant, whose determinations with respect to any such disputes shall be final and binding on
the parties.
