Upon reasonable prior notice, for the sole purpose of determining whether Wyeth is correctly invoicing Teva for such [**] in compliance with the requirements of this Agreement, Teva shall have the right to have an independent public accounting firm, reasonably acceptable to Wyeth and not paid in whole or in part by a contingent fee arrangement, access the books and records of Wyeth and each of its Affiliates as may be reasonably necessary to verify the accuracy of the invoices submitted by Wyeth under Section 3.2 during regular business hours at Wyeth’s offices and in such a manner as not to interfere unreasonably with Wyeth’s normal business activities. In no event shall such audits be conducted hereunder more frequently than once every [**]. Prior to commencing any such inspection and audit, any such independent auditor shall have entered into a reasonable and customary agreement with Wyeth which prohibits the disclosure of any information relating to Wyeth to any party, including Teva, except that such auditor may issue a report to Teva, which report shall also be provided to Wyeth, the sole purpose of which shall be to report to Teva whether Wyeth is appropriately invoicing Teva for such [**]. If such independent accountant concludes that the amounts invoiced by Wyeth were in excess of the amounts properly due during such period hereunder and Teva paid such excess amounts, Wyeth, within thirty (30) days after the date Teva delivers to Wyeth such accountant’s written report so concluding shall provide a refund to Teva in the amount of such excess payments, unless such errors in invoicing were due to errors in Teva’s reporting of Net Sales and Profits to Wyeth, whereupon Wyeth will issue a credit to Teva for such amount. If such independent accountant concludes that the amounts invoiced by Wyeth were less than the amounts properly due during such period, whether because of an error by Wyeth or an error by Teva in reporting Net Sales and Profits to Wyeth, any amount underpaid by Teva as a result thereof with respect to such period, shall be paid by Teva within thirty (30) days after Teva receives such accountant’s report. Costs for the audit will be paid by Teva unless there is a discrepancy (other than as a result of errors in Teva’s reports of Net Sales and Profits) in the amount paid of greater than seven and one-half percent (7.5%) in which case Wyeth shall reimburse Teva for the costs of the audit. In the event that Teva does not request to exercise its audit right during the Teva Audit Period all of Wyeth’s invoices for which the Teva Audit Period has expired will be deemed final and binding. Teva shall treat all information received from Wyeth and/or the independent auditor under Section 3.2 and this Section 3.8 as Confidential Information of Wyeth pursuant to Article 7.
