For purchase orders relating to the Translate Bio Monthly Fee, upon Build-Out Completion, Translate Bio shall provide a purchase order to AMRI for Translate Bio Monthly Fees for the period from Build-Out Completion (pro-rated for the month in which Build-Out Completion occurs) through the end of the calendar year. Thereafter on an annual basis, [**] prior to the start of each calendar year, Translate Bio shall provide a purchase order to AMRI for Translate Bio Monthly Fees for the following calendar year (January 1 through December 31).

1.5 The third sentence of Section 3.1 is hereby replaced in its entirety with the following:

Translate Bio is obligated to pay for (via the Translate Bio Monthly Fee, the Incremental Monthly Fee and any applicable additional costs per Section 2.8(e)), and AMRI shall have no liability for, all Development Services even if the Drug Substance and/or Bulk Drug Product produced does not conform to the Drug Substance Specifications or Bulk Drug Product Specifications, respectively, unless such non-conformity is attributable to AMRI’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

1.6 Section 3.2 is hereby replaced in its entirety with the following:

Monthly Batches and Pricing. As set forth in Section 2.8(d)(iii)(a), Translate Bio shall specify the number of Batches of Drug Substance and/or Bulk Drug Product to be Processed by AMRI in any given calendar month. Pricing for such Batches shall be as follows (as may be increased pursuant to this Section 3.2, the “Batch Pricing”):

Batch of Drug Substance		$	[**]
Batch of Bulk Drug Product		$	[**]

The Batch Pricing set forth in the table above assumes: (i) operation of the Cleanroom Suites for no more than eight hours per day, five days per week, (ii) that each Batch of Drug Substance shall take [**] to Process and each Batch of Bulk Drug Product shall

4

take [**] to Process, and (iii) Batch size of Drug Substance equal to [**], and Batch size of Drug Product equal to the liposomal encapsulation of one Batch of Drug Substance. AMRI shall only be obligated to Process the number of Batches of Drug Substance and/or Bulk Drug Product permitted by such one-shift operations during each month. The Parties agree that, [**] from the Amendment Effective Date, the Parties will negotiate in good faith any increase or decrease in the Batch Pricing in the event that the actual Processing time for a Batch of Drug Substance and/or a Batch of Bulk Drug Product is longer or shorter than the estimates set forth above.

AMRI may implement an increase in the Batch Pricing once annually, beginning on January 1 of each calendar year following the first anniversary of Build-Out Completion, in an amount equal to three percent (3%) of the then-current Batch Pricing. AMRI shall provide Translate Bio with written notice of any such increase at least [**] prior to its effective date.

On a monthly basis, Translate Bio shall owe to AMRI the greater of (i) the Translate Bio Monthly Fee, or (ii) the aggregate amount due for all Batches of Drug Substance and Bulk Drug Product completed during such month (any amount over $1,000,000 shall be referred to as the “Incremental Monthly Fee”). For purposes of this provision, completion of a Batch shall mean that AMRI has fulfilled its Processing obligations (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include testing or release).

By way of example:

(a) If AMRI completes Processing of [**] of Drug Substance and [**] of Bulk Drug Product in a month, Translate Bio shall owe the Translate Bio Monthly Fee [**].

(b) If AMRI completes Processing of [**] of Drug Substance and [**] of Bulk Drug Product in a month, Translate Bio shall owe the Translate Bio Monthly Fee [**].

1.7 Section 3.3 is hereby replaced in its entirety with the following:

Rescheduling and Cancellation. In the event that Translate Bio, with less than [**] notice prior to the scheduled date of manufacture, cancels, or delays or reschedules by more than [**], any Batches for a month in which there is an Incremental Monthly Fee (based on the forecast provided in Section 2.8(d)(iii)(a)), Translate Bio shall pay an amount equal to [**] percent ([**]%) of the applicable Incremental Monthly Fee. By way of example:

(a) if AMRI is scheduled to Process [**] of Drug Substance and [**] of Bulk Drug Product in a month and Translate Bio cancels or reschedules [**] of Drug Substance, Translate shall owe $[**].

5

(b) if AMRI is scheduled to Process [**] of Drug Substance and [**] of Bulk Drug Product in a month and Translate Bio cancels or reschedules [**] of Bulk Drug Product, Translate shall owe $[**].

For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 3.3 shall in no event limit Translate Bio’s obligation to pay the Translate Bio Monthly Fee each month.

1.8 The first sentence of Section 4.1 of the Agreement is hereby replaced in its entirety with the following:

Translate Bio shall supply to AMRI for Processing, at Translate Bio’s sole cost, the Translate Bio Materials.
