(ii) If, after its own analysis, EDT does not agree with the claim of nonconformity or determines that SM is responsible for the nonconformity, such Product shall be tested for conformance with the applicable Specifications or Manufacturing Standards by an independent third party testing laboratory mutually acceptable to both parties.

(c) After a final determination that the Product shipment is nonconforming, and if EDT is responsible for the nonconformity, SM shall return or destroy it at EDT’s request and cost in the most cost effective and environmentally safe and appropriate manner available, consistent with federal, state and local laws and regulations.

3.11.3 Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 3.11, SM shall have no right to reject any Product that fails to conform with the Manufacturing Standards if the nonconformance is attributable to (a) events outside of EDT’s control that occurred after delivery to SM’s designated facility, or (b) processes, procedures or Product components specified by SM in the Specifications, provided that EDT followed or used such processes, procedures and Product components substantially in accordance with the Specifications and cGMPs.

DISPUTES

15.1 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed, controlled, interpreted and defined by and under the laws of the State of California and the United States without regard to that body of law known as conflicts of law; provided that issues relating to the validity and enforceability of patents shall be governed by the laws of the jurisdiction under which such patent was granted.

15.2 Arbitration. Any claim, dispute, or controversy of whatever nature arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including, without limitation, any action or claim based on tort, contract, or statute or concerning the interpretation, effect, termination, validity, performance and/or breach of this Agreement (“Claim”), shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration before a single arbitrator (“Arbitrator”) who is knowledgeable in the subject matter at issue in the dispute. The Arbitrator will be selected by mutual agreement of the parties. The arbitration shall be held in Los Angeles County, California.

The Arbitrator also shall be authorized to grant any temporary, preliminary or permanent equitable remedy or relief he or she deems just and equitable and within the scope of this Agreement, including, without limitation, an injunction or order for specific performance. Each Party shall bear its own attorney’s fees, costs, and disbursements arising out of the arbitration, and shall pay an equal share of the fees and costs of the Arbitrator; provided, however, the Arbitrator shall be authorized to determine whether a Party is the prevailing Party, and if so, to award to that prevailing Party reimbursement for its reasonable attorneys’

fees, costs and disbursements (including, for example, expert witness fees and expenses, photocopy charges, travel expenses, etc.), and/or the fees and costs of the Arbitrator.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, either Party shall have the right to pursue an action in a court of competent jurisdiction to obtain injunctive or other equitable remedy, in order to preserve the status quo during the resolution of any dispute under this provision.
