(c) [***];

(d) [***];

(e) [***];

(f) [***];

Each of the above deductions to Net Sales shall be calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, if any Seller effects a sale, disposition or transfer of the Product to a customer in the Ocugen Territory other than on customary commercial terms or as part of a package of products and services, the Net Sales of such Product to such customer shall be deemed to be “the fair market value” of such Product, where “fair market value” means the value that would have been derived had the Product been sold as a separate product to another customer in the applicable country on customary commercial terms.

Sale” means any transaction for which consideration is received by Ocugen, its Affiliates or Sublicensees for sale, use, lease, transfer or other disposition of the Product to or for the benefit of a third party. For clarity, the sale, use, lease, transfer or other disposition of the Product by Ocugen or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees to another of these entities for resale by such entity to a third party shall not be deemed a Sale, provided such resale by these entities to or for the benefit of a third party has not occurred. For further clarity, the sale, transfer or other disposition of the Product by Ocugen or any of its Affiliates orSublicensees to a wholesaler or a distributor for resale by such wholesaler or distributor shall not be deemed a Sale hereunder; but rather, the sale by the wholesaler or distributor to the end user shall be treated as a Sale by Ocugen, its Affiliates or Sublicensee, as applicable. For purposes of this definition, “Sale” shall not include the sale, transfer or disposition of the Product (a) for research, preclinical, clinical, Development or regulatory purposes (including for use in Clinical Trials or pre–clinical studies); or (b) for a bona fide charitable purpose, including so–called “treatment IND sales,” “named patient sales,” “expanded access program” or“compassionate use sales” or to physicians or hospitals for promotional purposes (including free samples to a level and in an amount which is customary in the industry or which is reasonably proportional to the market for the Product).
