Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Parent Licensees and their Affiliates shall be permitted to use, and SpinCo agrees to permit the use of, the BHC Licensed Marks or any other Mark in a manner that constitutes nominative fair use, including for the purposes of referring to the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Separation Agreement or for describing the corporate history of Parent Licensees or their Affiliates; provided that such use does not give rise to a likelihood of confusion as to the source or origin of any goods or services or imply any endorsement by, or ongoing association with, SpinCo or any of its Subsidiaries.

Section 3.2 Rights of Subsidiaries. All rights and licenses granted in Section 3.1 are granted to Parent and to any entity that is a Subsidiary of Parent, but only for so long as such entity is a Subsidiary of Parent, and will terminate with respect to such entity when it ceases to be a Subsidiary of Parent.

Section 3.4 Quality Control.

(a) To comply with SpinCo Licensors’ quality control standards, Parent Licensees shall: (i) adhere to reasonable levels of quality for the services identified by the BHC Licensed Marks that are at least as high as those standards maintained by Parent Licensees prior to the Separation Date and such other specific reasonable updates to the global standards for the level of quality for the services that are communicated from time to time by SpinCo Licensors to Parent Licensees; (ii) comply with all applicable Laws and regulations in any country or other governmental jurisdiction; and (iii) use the BHC Licensed Marks in accordance with sound trademark and trade name usage principles and adhere to the global usage and display guidelines that are applicable to the Parent Business as of the Separation Date, that will be provided attached as Exhibit A and that may be amended from time to time thereafter.

(b) Parent Licensees shall not use the BHC Licensed Marks in any manner that would reflect adversely on the reputation for quality symbolized by the BHC Licensed Marks. Parent Licensees shall not engage in any conduct that would, or would be reasonably likely to, place the BHC Licensed Marks, other Bausch Marks or SpinCo Licensors in a negative light or context. Parent Licensees shall not use the BHC Licensed Marks in a manner that would, or would be reasonably likely to, devalue, injure, demean, or dilute the reputation of the BHC Licensed Marks, other Bausch Marks, or SpinCo Licensors. Parent Licensees shall not use the BHC Licensed Marks in any manner which would be reasonably likely to tarnish, disparage or reflect adversely on SpinCo Licensors, the BHC Licensed Marks or any other Bausch Marks.

(c) Parent Licensees shall not make any material changes to the BHC Licensed Marks without the prior written consent of SpinCo Licensors, which consent may be withheld in SpinCo Licensors’ sole discretion.

(d) Parent Licensees shall not use the BHC Licensed Marks in any manner that is reasonably likely to cause consumer confusion that any Parent Licensee is affiliated or associated with SpinCo Licensors in any way other than as a licensee; and Parent Licensees shall take commercially reasonable precautions necessary to avoid or prevent such confusion as to affiliation or association occurring.

(e) To confirm that Parent Licensees’ use of the BHC Licensed Marks complies with this Section 3.4, Parent Licensees shall, upon reasonable request by SpinCo Licensors, submit to SpinCo Licensors representative samples of publicly disseminated materials bearing any of the BHC Licensed Marks which are in the possession or control of Parent Licensees and, in the event that SpinCo Licensors find that use of the BHC Licensed Marks in such samples in any manner other than as expressly permitted herein, Parent Licensees shall, upon notice from SpinCo Licensors, immediately take steps necessary to correct the identified deviations or misuse of the respective items; provided, however, that if SpinCo Licensors reasonably determine that the defect poses a threat to public health or safety, or to the validity or value of any of the Bausch Marks or to the goodwill associated therewith, Parent Licensees shall, upon notice from SpinCo Licensors, immediately cease and direct others to cease all use of the non-conforming materials and all use of the BHC Licensed Marks in connection therewith.

9

Section 3.5 Goodwill. Any and all goodwill associated or that arises from Parent Licensees’ use of the BHC Licensed Marks shall inure to the sole and exclusive benefit of SpinCo Licensors. If, at any time, by operation of law or otherwise, Parent Licensees acquire any interest in any of the BHC Licensed Marks, Parent Licensees hereby assign, and agree to assign, such interest (along with associated goodwill) to SpinCo Licensors.

ARTICLE IV

TRANSITIONAL DOMAIN NAME USE

The Licensors acknowledge that the Licensees, as licensees of Intellectual Property Rights and licenses hereunder, will retain and may fully exercise all of their rights and elections under the Bankruptcy Code. Each Party irrevocably waives all arguments and defenses arising under 11 U.S.C. § 365(c)(1) or successor provisions to the effect that applicable Law excuses such Party from accepting performance from or rendering performance to an entity other than the debtor or debtor-in-possession as a basis for opposing assumption of this Agreement in a case under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code to the extent that such consent is required under 11 U.S.C. § 365(c)(1) or any successor provisions.

Section 5.2 Confidentiality. Notwithstanding the transfer or disclosure of any Technology or grant or retention of any license to a Trade Secret or other proprietary right in confidential information to or by a Party hereunder, each Party agrees on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries that (a) it (and each of its Subsidiaries) shall treat the Trade Secrets and confidential information of the other Party with at least the same degree of care as they treat their own similar Trade Secrets and confidential information, but in no event with less than reasonable care, and (b) neither Party (nor any of its Subsidiaries) may use or disclose the Trade Secrets or confidential

10

information, as applicable, licensed or disclosed to it by the other Party under this Agreement, except in accordance with its respective license granted in Article II. Nothing herein will limit either Party’s ability to enforce its rights against any third party that misappropriates or attempts to misappropriate any Trade Secret or confidential information from it, regardless of whether it is an owner or licensee of such Trade Secret or confidential information.

ARTICLE VI

NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES

Section 6.1 NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES. ALL LICENSES AND RIGHTS GRANTED HEREUNDER ARE GRANTED ON AN AS-IS BASIS WITHOUT REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF ANY KIND.

ALL SUCH REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES, WHETHER ARISING BY OPERATION OF LAW OR OTHERWISE, ARE HEREBY EXPRESSLY EXCLUDED AND DISCLAIMED. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, OR ANYTHING IN SECTION 6.2 BELOW, NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO LIMIT OR EXPAND ANY OF THE RIGHTS OR REMEDIES OF ANY PARTY UNDER THE SEPARATION AGREEMENT.

Section 6.2 General Disclaimer. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as:

(a) a warranty or representation by either Party as to the validity, enforceability or scope of any Intellectual Property Rights;

(b) except as expressly set forth herein, an agreement by either Party to maintain any Intellectual Property Rights in force;

(c) except as expressly set forth herein, an agreement by either Party to bring or prosecute actions or suits against any third party for infringement of Intellectual Property Rights or any other right, or conferring upon either Party any right to bring or prosecute actions or suits against any third party for infringement of Intellectual Property Rights or any other right;

transaction resulting in a Change of Control, an express acknowledgement regarding the limitations on the licenses granted hereunder to the Acquired Party as a result of such Change of Control or sale or disposition. For the avoidance of doubt, upon and subject to the implementation of the applicable step in the Plan of Arrangement, each of Amalco and the Resulting Entity shall be regarded as successors and permitted assigns of SpinCo for purposes of this Agreement, the Separation Agreement and any other Ancillary Agreements and it is the express intention of each of the Parties that all terms referring or relating to SpinCo shall be construed to refer or relate to the Resulting Entity.

Section 8.4 Limitations on Change of Control. In the event of a Change of Control:

(a) where Parent is the Acquired Party, the licenses to the Parent Licensees set forth in Section 2.2, Section 2.4 and Section 3.1 will be transferrable to, or assumable by, the Acquiring Party in whole or in part in accordance with Section 8.3, but shall become limited and shall not extend to any product or service or business of the Acquiring Party or its Affiliates that are sold, distributed, provided or otherwise commercialized at any time, if such product, service or business was commercialized or conducted prior to the date of the consummation of such Change of Control of Parent;

(b) where SpinCo is the Acquired Party, the license to the SpinCo Licensees set forth in Section 2.1 and Section 2.3 will be transferrable to, or assumable by, the Acquiring Party in whole or in part in accordance with Section 8.3, but shall become limited and shall not extend to any product or service or business of the Acquiring Party or its Affiliates that are sold, distributed, provided or otherwise commercialized at any time, if such product, service or business was commercialized or conducted prior to the date of the consummation of such Change of Control of SpinCo.

Section 8.5 Specific Performance. The Parties hereto agree that irreparable damage, for which monetary damages (even if available) would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that the Parties hereto do not perform any provision of this Agreement in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. Accordingly, the Parties acknowledge and agree that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled in Law or in equity. Each of the Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that the other Party has an adequate remedy at Law or that any award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or in equity. Any Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with such order or injunction.

Section 8.6 Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, all legal and other costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by the Party incurring such costs and expenses.
