The total Business Rates Contributions chargeable against all modules on Level 2 is [***] chargeable against all modules on the Ground Level;

8.3.3

the Activity Related Input Contributions as the costs of providing the Activity Related Inputs as they are incurred by COLLABORATOR;

8.3.4

subject to Clauses 8.1 to 8.2, from the Term Start Date, the Integral Input Contributions are payable by COLLABORATOR [***] in advance and calculated in accordance with the following provisions of this Clause 8.3.4:

(a)

estimated annual Integral Input Contributions payable by all Other Collaborators (who have projects in Ground Level Modules) until 31 March 2021 are as provided in Schedule Error! Reference source not found..

(b)

COLLABORATOR’s Integral Input Contribution from the Term Start Date until 31 March 2022 will be equivalent to [***] of the annual Integral Input Contributions payable by each of the Other Collaborators for the Year commencing 1 April 2021, subject to adjustment for: [***].

(c)

“Full Occupation” of the Centre for a given Year is achieved when ten (10) or more modules at the Centre are in concurrent occupation for such full Year. From and including the Year commencing 1 April 2022 and only following the first achievement of Full Occupation, prior to the start of each Year for which Catapult anticipates that the Centre will be in Full Occupation Catapult will use the actual costs of providing the Integral Inputs to the Collaborators in the Centre during the most recent Year of Full Occupation to reasonably estimate the Integral Input Costs for such coming Year at Full Occupation (the “Full Occupation Integral Input Costs Estimate”), which it will provide to the Collaborators. COLLABORATOR will pay to Catapult a fixed proportion of those costs, such proportion to be a [***] share of the Full Occupation Integral Input Costs Estimate which will be COLLABORATOR’s Integral Input Contribution for such Year. For the sake of clarity, contributions for the differently specified modules on Level 2 in such a Year will be based on a [***] share of the Full Occupation Integral Input Costs Estimate.

(d)

For each Year when Catapult anticipates less than ten (10) modules being occupied concurrently throughout such Year then this will be a Year which Catapult anticipates the Centre being outside Full Occupation. From and including the Year commencing 1 April 2022, for each Year which Catapult anticipates the Centre being outside Full Occupation (an “Anticipated Non-Full Occupation Year”), prior to the start of each such Year Catapult will reasonably estimate the Integral Input Costs to operate the Centre based on [***]. Following Catapult’s determination that it anticipates that the Centre will be outside Full Occupation for a given Year, it will determine whether the aforementioned Integral Input Contribution calculation method (i) or (ii) shall apply for such Year, and it shall notify All Collaborators accordingly.

8.4	By being part of the Centre, COLLABORATOR has access to the wider Catapult supporting infrastructure which includes reimbursement support, clinical trial support, process development capability, and regulatory and market access consultancy

expertise. The cost of such supporting inputs are to be agreed through separate negotiation and contractual agreement.

8.5

Catapult undertakes to keep full and proper books of account and records relating to the Integral Input Contributions. In addition COLLABORATOR will be provided with the opportunity to comment on such planned expenditure and consensus sought through participation in the Collaborator Forums (although for clarity, Catapult reserves its discretion in exercising its professional judgment in relation to making any final decisions with respect to the Integral Inputs and Integral Input Contributions and Activity Related Input Contributions, while being consistent with the objectives set out in the terms of reference for the Collaborator Forums, particularly with respect to maintaining a suitable level of services required for robust operation of a licensed facility suitable for late stage clinical and commercial manufacture of ATMPs in an economical way).

8.6

At the beginning of each Year during the Term Catapult will provide to All Collaborators a budget setting out all anticipated Contributions for the Year with respect to Integral Inputs and Activity Related Inputs to be provided in that Year. In addition to this, from the date Full Occupation is achieved, a quarterly statement will be provided to All Collaborators in the Centre comparing actuals to the budgeted amounts.

9.	CATAPULT INPUTS, FACILITIES AND SUPPORT

The operation of the Centre is dependent on a range of inputs split between:

(i) Integral Inputs are inputs Catapult, using its reasonable judgment considers as fundamental to the operation of the Centre and that All Collaborators will draw on, but not necessarily in equal measure. Integral Inputs may be varied from time to time by Catapult, after prior discussion and consideration of concerns raised by COLLABORATOR and Other Collaborators in the Operational Forum, in order to cater for the common, but not necessarily universal requirements of the COLLABORATOR and Other Collaborators in the Centre. Where COLLABORATOR’s utilisation of Integral Inputs is materially in excess of COLLABORATOR’s proportional contribution, COLLABORATOR shall be required to increase its proportional contributions to reflect its increased utilisation of Integral Inputs.

(ii) Activity Related Inputs are inputs that are dependent on COLLABORATOR Manufacturing Process and activity.

It is a condition of the Collaboration that the Integral Inputs, Establishment Inputs and Activity Related Inputs will be procured through Catapult.

(iii) Additional Inputs are inputs COLLABORATOR requires Catapult to contribute to the Project. These will be arranged, as needed, through the completion of an Additional Input Agreement in the form set out at Schedule Error! Reference source not found. (“Additional Input Agreement”). Once signed by both Parties, the Additional Input Agreement will serve to add further Inputs to this Agreement or amend the Additional Inputs in this Agreement as applicable, and an Additional Input will be deemed appended to the list of Additional Inputs at Clause 9.4 and any associated contributions from COLLABORATOR in consideration of the Additional

Inputs will be deemed as having been inserted at Schedule Error! Reference source not found..

15.1.3

any recommendation, investigation, action or proceeding by a Regulatory Authority which arises as a result of COLLABORATOR’s breach of this Agreement and/or the QTA. Any assessment of costs or losses under a claim under this Clause 15.1.3 shall solely be in respect of the proportion of losses which flow directly from COLLABORATOR and shall exclude any contributory act or omission of any Third Party which is not an agent, visitor or subcontractor of COLLABORATOR.

15.3

Indemnification of Catapult and its Affiliates under Clause 15.1 shall not apply to the extent that the indemnified Catapult Loss is caused by or results from the negligence, omission or wilful misconduct of Catapult, its Affiliates, employees, agents or subcontractors, or their failure to take any measures as are reasonable in the relevant circumstances to mitigate the Catapult Loss.

15.4

Catapult agrees to indemnify, and hold COLLABORATOR and its Affiliates harmless from and against all costs, expenses, damages, losses, and liabilities (whether in contract, tort, misrepresentation, restitution, under statute or otherwise) (including reasonable attorney’s fees, and legal costs and expenses) (“COLLABORATOR Loss”) that COLLABORATOR and/or its Affiliates suffer or incur arising out of or in connection with:

15.4.3

any recommendation, investigation, action or proceeding by a Regulatory Authority which arises as a result of Catapult’s breach of this Agreement and/or the QTA.

15.6

Indemnification of COLLABORATOR and its Affiliates under Clause 15.4 shall not apply to the extent that the indemnified COLLABORATOR Loss is caused by or results from the negligence, omission or wilful misconduct of COLLABORATOR, its Affiliates employees, agents or contractors, or their failure to take any measures as are reasonable in the relevant circumstances to mitigate the COLLABORATOR Loss.

16.	LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

16.1

Collaborating organisations occupying the Centre generally, and COLLABORATOR and Catapult in particular with respect to this Agreement, in choosing to employ the Centre as a base for GMP manufacturing activities accept and acknowledge a degree of risk inherent in any multi-mode, shared occupancy manufacturing facility and the nature of the biological processes undertaken within. Occasional unforeseen situations may arise associated with, for example utilities, equipment and associated processes that have the potential to disrupt or have a detrimental impact on processing, including on the COLLABORATOR Product(s), and/or the COLLABORATOR Manufacturing Process(es).

16.1.1

In light of this, Catapult will procure from each Collaborator, prior to their occupation of the Centre, contractual agreement not to commence or sustain legal proceedings against COLLABORATOR (or any Other Collaborators or Catapult) for damages, or any other financial reimbursement (“Agreement Not to Xxx”), as a consequence of any unexpected and unintended consequences as a result of such a situation at the Centre as described in this Clause 16.1 (“Unforeseen Risks”) unless it is a result of attributable negligence or wilful misconduct of COLLABORATOR (or any Other Collaborators or Catapult, as applicable), breach of confidence, material breach of any obligation under the relevant Other Collaborator’s (or, COLLABORATOR’S, or Catapult's) collaboration agreement or quality agreement for the Centre, or material breach of Catapult SOPs or breach of Applicable Laws, by COLLABORATOR (or any Other Collaborators or Catapult, as applicable) and shall procure a direct right of enforcement of such Agreement Not to Xxx by COLLABORATOR against each such Other Collaborator or Catapult pursuant to the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Xxx 0000.

16.1.2

With respect to each Other Collaborator that Catapult has obtained an enforceable Agreement Not to Xxx in accordance with Clause 16.1.1, which COLLABORATOR has a direct right to enforce against such Other Collaborator pursuant to the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Xxx 0000, COLLABORATOR agrees that it shall not commence or sustain legal proceedings against such a Other Collaborator for damages, or any other financial reimbursement, as a consequence of any Unforeseen Risks unless it is a result of attributable negligence or wilful misconduct of, or a breach of confidence, material breach of any obligation under the relevant Other Collaborator’s collaboration agreement or quality agreement for the Centre, or material breach of Catapult SOPs or breach of Applicable Laws by, such a Other Collaborator.

16.1.3

Catapult and COLLABORATOR, each agree not to commence or sustain legal proceedings against the other Party for damages, or any other financial reimbursement, as a consequence of any Unforeseen Risks unless it is a result of attributable negligence or wilful misconduct of the other Party, or is a breach of confidence, material breach of any obligation under this Agreement or the QTA, or a material breach of Catapult SOPs or breach of Applicable Laws, by the other Party.

16.1.4

This Clause 16.1 is not intended to qualify, and is subject to and without prejudice to, each Party’s rights and obligations under Clause Error! Reference source not found. (Indemnity).

16.2

Each Party is obliged to abide by the operating requirements of the Centre in order to comply with GMP (as defined in the Quality Technical Agreement) and exercise an appropriate duty of care such as to minimise the frequency and severity of events alluded to in Clause 16.1, thus offering each other mutual protection. In order to ensure no Party exposes themselves to unreasonable financial risk as a result of such a situation, Catapult and COLLABORATOR (and Catapult will procure this of each Other Collaborator in occupation of the Centre) will ensure the continued and uninterrupted maintenance of an appropriate level of public liability, business continuity and professional indemnity insurances.

16.3	Without prejudice to Clauses 15.1, 16.1, 16.5, 16.6 and 16.7 , the maximum aggregate Liability of COLLABORATOR which arises from any single event which

occurs in any Year will be limited to [***] for any single event, with no limit on the number of claims made against it from Catapult.

16.4	Without prejudice to Clauses 16.1, 16.5 and 16.6 , the maximum aggregate Liability of Catapult which arises from any single event which occurs in any Year will be limited to [*] for any single event or a maximum of [*] for all events in aggregate which occur in any one year.

16.5

In no circumstance will any Party have any Liability to the other for any of the following types of losses (whether those losses arise directly in the normal course of business or otherwise): pure economic loss; loss of profits; loss of or damage to materials stored; loss of business; loss of revenue; loss of contract; loss or depletion of goodwill and/or business opportunity; loss of anticipated earnings or savings or like loss; wasted management, operational or other time.

16.6	Nothing in this Agreement limits or excludes any person’s liability to the extent that it may not be so limited or excluded by law, including any such liability for death or personal injury caused by that person’s negligence, or liability for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.

16.7	Without prejudice to Clause 16.6, nothing in this Agreement will operate to exclude or restrict COLLABORATOR’s Liability:

16.7.1

under the indemnity contained in Clause 15.1; or

16.7.2

to pay the Contributions that are correctly incurred under this Agreement; or

16.7.3

to pay the Catapult Compensations.

16.8	The Parties agree that they have negotiated this Clause 16 and the allocation of risk in this Clause is a fair and equitable position.

17.	DURATION AND TERMINATION

17.1

This Agreement, and the licences granted hereunder, will come into effect on the Effective Date and, unless terminated earlier in accordance with this Clause 17 or unless specified in the continuing obligations provisions of this Agreement as having continued effect, will continue in force until [***] (the “Term”), and on such date this Agreement will terminate automatically by expiry.

17.2

On the conditions that (a) COLLABORATOR has consistently complied with its obligations in the Collaboration Agreement throughout the Term up to the date the Option is exercised, and (b) the Option is exercised not less than 12 months before the end of the Term, then COLLABORATOR will have a six-month period from the start of the 12 month notice period during which it will be entitled to negotiate with Catapult (both acting reasonably) the duration, terms and conditions of an extension to the Collaboration including its occupation of the Module (the “Option”). Such extension will be on substantially the same terms as the existing Agreement at the rates prevailing at the time of extension (although in the event there are factors that are out of Catapult’s control or there are unavoidable requirements that mean significant changes are required as to how the Centre is operated following the end of the Term, such “substantially” same terms may not be possible). At the end of such 6 month period the Option will lapse and Catapult will have no obligation to continue such negotiations with COLLABORATOR.

17.3	The Parties may terminate this Agreement at any time by mutual written consent, signed by the authorised signatories of the Parties.

17.4	Either Party may elect to terminate this Agreement at any time by notice in writing to the other Party, such notice to take effect as specified in the notice:

17.4.1

if the other Party is in material breach of this Agreement and, in the case of a breach capable of remedy within 90 days, the breach is not remedied within 90 days of the party receiving notice specifying the breach and requiring its remedy; or

17.4.2

if (A) the other Party becomes insolvent or unable to pay its debts as and when they become due; or (B) an order is made or a resolution is passed for the winding up of the other Party (other than voluntarily for the purpose of solvent amalgamation or reconstruction); or (C) a liquidator, administrator, administrative receiver, receiver, or trustee is appointed in respect of the whole or any part of the other Party’s assets or business; or (D) the other Party makes any composition with its creditors; or (E) the other Party ceases to continue its business; or (F) as a result of debt and/or maladministration the other party takes or suffers any similar or analogous action in any jurisdiction.

17.5	Subject to COLLABORATOR’s compliance with Clause 18.1, COLLABORATOR may terminate this Agreement [***] written notice to Catapult. Such termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Clause 17.5 shall not be effective until COLLABORATOR has fully complied with the terms of Clause 18.1.

17.6	A Party’s right of termination under this Agreement, and the exercise of any such right, will be without prejudice to any other right or remedy (including any right to claim damages) that such Party may have in the event of a breach of contract or other default by the other Party.

18.	Consequences of EARLY termination

18.1

COLLABORATOR recognises that considerable planning and advance preparation by Catapult is required to ensure timely COLLABORATOR occupation of the Module. COLLABORATOR agrees that the amounts payable under this Clause 18.1 reasonably and proportionately seek to protect Catapult from the time cost associated with having a module unoccupied at the Centre and the cost of making an empty module available for a new Collaborator, and represent agreed consideration for COLLABORATOR to reserve the right to terminate this Agreement at will pursuant to Clause 17.5. Solely where COLLABORATOR serves notice of termination on Catapult pursuant to Clause 17.5:

18.1.1

effective before the Term Start Date, then COLLABORATOR will pay to Catapult [***]; or

18.1.2

effective on or after the Term Start Date, COLLABORATOR will pay to Catapult [***]

18.1.2.1[***]

18.1.2.2[***]

save that where the circumstances set out in clause 18.1.2 apply, and where the Catapult successfully enters into a collaboration agreement with a replacement collaborator to occupy the Module then or previously assigned to the COLLABORATOR (“Replacement Collaborator”), the COLLABORATOR shall be entitled to a partial refund of the Catapult Compensations (defined below) in an amount equal to [***] to the date the Term was due to expire, but for such early termination by the COLLABORATOR. Such partial refund shall be due and payable by Catapult in monthly instalments, subject to Catapult having received the relevant payment from the Replacement Collaborator. Notwithstanding the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, the Catapult shall be under no obligation, when engaging a Replacement Collaborator to offer them the Module then or previously occupied by the COLLABORATOR or to give any preferential treatment to such Module.

The contributions payable by COLLABORATOR pursuant to Clauses 18.2.1 and 18.2.2, as applicable, shall be the “Catapult Compensations” and shall become immediately due and payable in full by COLLABORATOR on COLLABORATOR’s service of notice of termination on Catapult pursuant to Clause 17.5. COLLABORATOR’s payments to Catapult under this Clause 18.1 shall be made in accordance with Clause 8.3.5. For the purposes of the calculations of the Catapult Compensations under Clauses 18.2.1 and 18.2.2 the applicable annual Facility Contribution, Business Rates Contributions and Integral Input Contributions will be the annual Facility Contribution, Business Rates Contributions and Integral Input Contributions applicable during the Year in which COLLABORATOR serves notice pursuant to Clause 17.5.

18.2	Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason (and unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in a subsequent, written agreement, including any agreement entered into in accordance with the provisions of Clause 26.1):

18.2.1

the provisions of Clauses 8 (with respect to Contributions accruing up to and including the date of expiry or termination) 8.3.1, 8.3.5, 10.2, 10.3, 11.3 (subject to Clause 11.4), 11.4, 11.5, 12, 13, 15, 16, 18, 19.1 19.2, and 32 will remain in force; and

18.2.2

the Collaboration will terminate, subject to any subsisting and continuing obligations.

19.

Insurance

19.1

Catapult will take out with a reputable insurance company and maintain at all times during the Term professional indemnity, and public liability insurance including against all loss of and damage to the Module, the Centre, and injury to persons including death arising out of or in connection with this Agreement. Such insurances may be limited in respect of one claim provided that such limit must be at least [***]. Catapult will continue to maintain Product liability insurance for a further [***] from the end of the Term.

19.2

COLLABORATOR will take out with a reputable insurance company, and maintain at all times during the Term of this Agreement public and product liability insurance including against all loss of and damage to the Module and Centre, injury to persons including death arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, and against all loss of and damage to any COLLABORATOR owned equipment, or

COLLABORATOR personnel personal effects within the Module or in the Centre generally. Such insurances may be limited in respect of one claim provided that such limit must be at least [***]. COLLABORATOR will continue to maintain product liability insurance for a further [***] from the end of the Term. COLLABORATOR acknowledges that Catapult will have no responsibility for any COLLABORATOR owned equipment or any COLLABORATOR Personnel personal effects located in the Module or any other part of the Centre.

19.3

If there is destruction or damage to the Centre that leaves the whole or substantially the whole of the Centre and / or the Module unfit for occupation and use or inaccessible, the Catapult may terminate this Agreement immediately by written notice to COLLABORATOR at any time within the period of two (2) years after the date of such damage or destruction.

19.4

If there is destruction or damage to the Centre that leaves the whole or substantially the whole of the Centre and / or the Module unfit for occupation and use or inaccessible and the Module has not been made fit for occupation and use by COLLABORATOR within 2 years of the date of such destruction or damage then either Party may serve notice on the other to terminate this Agreement with immediate effect, but before such reinstatement is completed.

19.5

If there is destruction or damage to the Centre by any of the Insured Risks that leaves the whole or substantially the whole of the Centre and / or the Module unfit for occupation and use or inaccessible, then, save to the extent that the Catapult’s insurance has not been vitiated or policy moneys refused because of any act or default of COLLABORATOR, its Affiliates, employees, agents, visitors or contractors, then the Facility Charge, the Activity Related Input Contributions, the Integral Input Contributions, and the Business Rates Contribution or a fair proportion of them will not be payable from and including the date of such damage or destruction until the earlier of the date that the Module is once again fit for occupation and use and accessible and the date two (2) years from and including the date of such damage or destruction.

20.	ANTI-BRIBERY AND ANTI-CORRUPTION

20.1	Each Party agrees that, in connection with this Agreement and the Project, they will each, (and will procure that their respective officers, employees, agents and any other persons who perform services for them or on their behalf in connection with this Agreement will):

not commit any act or omission which causes or could cause the other Party to breach, or commit an offence under, any laws relating to anti-bribery and/or anti-corruption;

20.1.2

keep accurate and up to date records showing all payments made and received and all other advantages given and received in connection with this Agreement and the steps taken to comply with this Clause 20, and permit the other Party to inspect those records as reasonably required;

Catapult will be entitled to cooperate fully with any investigation by any grant funder of Catapult or by the European Commission or any court of law with respect to this Agreement regarding the grant/alleged grant of state aid and the provision of Inputs hereunder and COLLABORATOR will, if so requested by Catapult, promptly provide to Catapult all reasonable and necessary assistance in connection with any such investigation(s);

Catapult will keep COLLABORATOR informed of any active and specific investigation into this Agreement and, where possible, liaise with COLLABORATOR concerning any response to the European Commission; and

the Parties will comply with any ruling of the European Commission or court of law in relation to the application of the EU state aid rules to this Agreement.

33.	DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEDURE

33.1	If a dispute arises out of or in connection with this Agreement or the performance, validity or enforceability of it (Dispute), then, except as expressly provided in specific clauses of this Agreement, the Parties will follow the procedure set out in this clause:

33.3

If the Dispute is not resolved within 40 days after service of the ADR notice on the other Party, or either Party fails to participate or ceases to participate in the mediation before the expiry of that 40-day period, or the mediation terminates before the expiry of that 40-day period, the Dispute will be finally resolved by the courts of England and Wales in accordance with Clause 32 (Governing Law and Jurisdiction) in this Agreement.
