In connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the License Agreement you have requested that Hoechst GmbH (the “Lender”) provide a $175.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Facility”) to MannKind (in such capacity, the “Borrower” or “you”) on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Commitment Letter and Exhibit A (collectively, the “Commitment Letter”).
| 1. | Commitments |
The Lender is pleased to advise you of its commitment to provide to the Borrower the Facility on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Commitment Letter.
| 2. | Conditions Precedent |
The Lender’s commitment hereunder is subject to the following conditions: (i) the definitive loan documents relating to the Facility, including without limitation a credit agreement (or promissory note), security agreements and other related definitive documents (collectively, the “Loan Documents”) shall have been prepared based upon and substantially consistent with the terms set forth in this Commitment Letter and otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the Lender and the Borrower and shall have been executed and delivered by the Borrower, (ii) the Lender shall be reasonably satisfied that the Borrower has complied with all other customary closing conditions, including: (A) the delivery of customary corporate records and documents from public officials and officer’s certificates; (B) evidence of authority; and (C) grant and perfection of liens on the collateral to secure the Facility, (iii) the accuracy of the representations and warranties specified in Exhibit A and (iv) the absence of any default or event of default specified in Exhibit A.

1
Exhibit A) and a failure to obtain such account control agreements shall not result in a default provided the Borrower has used commercially reasonable efforts.
| 3. | Indemnification |
You hereby agree to indemnify upon demand and hold harmless the Lender and each partner, trustee, shareholder, director, officer, employee, advisor, representative, agent, attorney and controlling person thereof (each of the above, an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all actions, suits, proceedings (including any investigations or inquiries), claims, losses, damages, liabilities or expenses (including legal expenses), joint or several, of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be brought or threatened by the Borrower, the Guarantors (as defined in Exhibit A), any of their respective affiliates or any other person or entity and which may be incurred by or asserted against or involve any Indemnified Person (whether or not any Indemnified Person is a party to such action, suit, proceeding or claim) arising solely from this Commitment Letter, the Facility, any other Loan Document or any use or intended use of the proceeds of the Facility other than those relating to the License Agreement; provided that you will not have to indemnify an Indemnified Person against any claim, loss, damage, liability or expense to the extent the same resulted directly and primarily from (i) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person (to the extent determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment) and (ii) a material breach of the obligations of such Indemnified Person under this Commitment Letter (to the extent determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment).
