TERMS OF SUPPLY
TERMS OF SUPPLY
2.1. Supply Agreement. During the term of this CSA, SPT shall manufacture and test
Product exclusively for PGx, and shall supply Product exclusively to PGx or to PGx’s designee,
pursuant to the Specifications, NDA and the other terms and conditions of this CSA. SPT shall
perform Product manufacturing at the Facility.
2.2. Minimum Purchase Commitment. Except to the extent relieved of its obligation
pursuant to the terms of this CSA, PGx shall order for delivery no less than the percentage of
total Product manufactured for PGx (and its Affiliates, licensees, sublicensees, partners and
others deriving Product or Finished Product rights from PGx or any of the foregoing by written
agreement) for commercial sale each calendar year (according to the Delivery Dates of the Purchase
Orders in the applicable calendar year) as set forth on Exhibit C hereto (the “Minimum
Purchase Commitment”) commencing in the calendar year of Commercial Launch (which may be a partial
calendar year). Within [*] Business Days after the end of each calendar year, PGx shall deliver to
SPT a reconciliation report reflecting the number of kilograms of Product ordered for delivery from
SPT and the total number of kilograms of Product ordered for delivery in such
calendar year. To the extent that PGx fails to make the Minimum Purchase Commitment (the “MPC
Shortfall”) in any calendar year, SPT’s sole remedy shall be [*]; provided, however, in the event
that SPT is unable to manufacture some or all of the MPC Shortfall because such amount exceeds the
Facility’s capacity, PGx shall, to the extent of such excess capacity amount and in lieu of
ordering that portion of the MPC Shortfall, [*]. For clarity, an example of the MPC Shortfall is
shown in Exhibit H attached hereto.
2.3. Materials. At no cost to PGx (other than the Purchase Price), SPT shall supply
the raw materials and components for the manufacture of Product, as well as all other materials and
components required for the manufacture, testing, storage, and shipment of Product. SPT shall

materials required for the manufacture and testing of Product listed on Exhibit D attached
hereto (the “Key Materials”) in accordance with Exhibit B, which Exhibit D
may be amended from time to time to the extent mutually agreed upon by the Parties. Prior to
designating a Qualified Vendor, SPT shall obtain PGx’s prior approval of such Qualified Vendor,
such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and SPT shall provide PGx with
information regarding such Qualified Vendor based on a mutually agreeable Key Material vendor
qualification protocol and a data package for the vendor in connection with PGx’s review and
approval of such Qualified Vendor. With respect to Key Material C-3, (a) SPT shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to qualify and purchase C-3 from the lowest-cost qualified vendor taking into

materially affect SPT’s ability to fulfill its obligations under this CSA, and (b) after the NDA is
approved and upon request by PGx, SPT shall purchase at least [*]% of its annual requirements from
a second vendor, provided that the suppliers deliver the ordered quantities (i.e., if SPT orders
but a vendor fails to supply, and this causes SPT not to comply with the [*]% requirement, this is
not considered a fault of SPT or a breach by it of this provision).
SPT shall use best efforts to enter into written supply or similar agreements or purchase
orders of Key Material C-3 with its Qualified Vendors and SPT shall promptly provide to PGx copies
of such agreements/purchase orders of Key Material C-3 (or summaries of terms of any verbal
agreements of Key Material C-3). Any such supply or similar written agreements (to be clear, if
there is no formal agreement, and ordering occurs on a purchase order basis, then at least the
rights set forth below in (X)(i)-(iii), as applicable, must be legally provided for) between SPT
and a Qualified Vendor shall be in the English language and SPT shall
(X) include terms which will enable SPT to comply with this CSA including, without limitation,

at least as restrictive as those contained in Article 14 below, to the extent the Qualified Vendor
receives PGx Confidential Information; (iii) terms relating to the ownership, assignment, and

intellectual property related to the manufacture or use of Product or that will be owned or
controlled by SPT or any entity related to SPT); and

Product, SPT hereby agrees that, for [*] SPT and its Affiliates shall not, directly or indirectly,

of any Person other than PGx or its Affiliates. The terms of this Section 2.7 replace and supersede
Section 10 of Work Order #8 under the MSA.
2.8. No Subcontracting. Unless otherwise first agreed to by PGx in writing, SPT
shall not subcontract the manufacture, storage, or testing of Product hereunder to any non-Party,

FORECASTS/ORDERS/SECOND FACILITY
FORECASTS/ORDERS/SECOND FACILITY
3.1. Forecasts.
3.1.1. Within ninety (90) days after the Effective Date, PGx shall provide to SPT an initial
eighteen (18) month forecast that estimates the quantity of Product to be purchased by PGx
hereunder during the initial eighteen (18) month period following the date of such forecast.
Thereafter, on or about the first Business Day of each calendar quarter during the term of this
CSA, PGx shall provide to SPT an updated rolling forecast that estimates the quantity of Product to
be purchased by PGx hereunder during the upcoming eighteen (18) months. The amount of Product as
set forth for the first six (6) months of each forecast shall be documented in a Purchase Order
pursuant to Section 3.2. The total amount of Product in any updated forecast for the seventh
(7th) to twelfth (12th) months of such forecast shall not deviate by more
than [*]%) up from the total amount forecasted to be ordered during the same six (6) month period
in the most recent previous forecast provided to SPT or [*]%) down from the total amount forecasted
to be ordered during the same six (6) month period in the most recent previous forecast provided to
SPT; [*]. Additionally and notwithstanding the above, in the first (1st) year after
Commercial Launch: PGx may postpone the forecasted amounts in the seventh (7th) to
twelfth (12th) months for up to [*] months, and, if Commercial Launch is delayed or
canceled due to the action or inaction of the FDA, PGx may cancel without recourse any forecasts
not yet covered by a Purchase Order.
3.1.2. Additionally, by April 1 of each year, PGx shall provide to SPT a non-binding five (5)
year forecast that estimates the quantity of Product to be purchased by PGx hereunder during such
five (5) year period. Such forecast shall constitute an estimate of PGx’s requirements for Product
that is supplied for SPT’s convenience only, is non-binding on PGx and shall not itself be deemed
an order of Product, or otherwise obligate PGx in any way whatsoever.
3.2. Purchase Orders. PGx shall submit purchase orders (which purchase orders shall
include, among other things, quantities of Product ordered, Delivery Point and Delivery Date(s))
(each a “Purchase Order”, a sample form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit E)
to SPT no less than [*] months prior to the requested delivery date of Product set forth in such
Purchase Order (the “Delivery Date”). The Purchase Order shall be consistent with the most
recent forecast as described in Section 3.1.1. No Purchase Orders shall be for an amount less than
the Minimum Order Quantity. SPT shall be bound to supply, to the Exchange Point by the Delivery
Date (for expedition to the Delivery Point thereafter by the carrier designated by PGx), any
requested quantities of Product ordered pursuant to any Purchase Order, provided that the
quantities ordered do not exceed [*] percent ([*]%) of the range allowed per Section 3.1.1 based on
the most recent twelve (12) month forecast as provided in Section 3.1.1 above. SPT further agrees

use its commercially reasonable efforts to supply, by the Delivery Date, any requested
quantities of Product which exceed [*] percent ([*]%) of the most recent twelve (12) month
forecast. Within [*] Business Days of receipt of any Purchase Order, SPT shall provide PGx with a
written confirmation acknowledging receipt of such Purchase Order and confirming the quantities and
Delivery Date(s) for that Purchase Order or, in the absence of such confirmation, the Purchase
Order will be deemed as accepted by the Parties with a Delivery Date as stated in the Purchase
Order to the extent not exceeding [*]% of the applicable forecast. In any event, in all cases: (a)
PGx will be obliged to place a Purchase Order for at least [*]-month portion of the last applicable
forecast prior to when the Purchase Order for the time period of delivery was due in accordance
with Section 3.1.1, and (b) SPT shall be obliged to accept each Purchase Order to the extent
providing for delivery of no more than [*]% of the last applicable forecast and complying with this
CSA; SPT may also agree to accept Purchase Orders to the extent providing for greater quantities,
but is not required to do so. The Purchase Orders required to be placed under the foregoing
sentence will be deemed placed for purposes of contractual remedies under this CSA with or without
PGx having actually sent the required Purchase Order, and the Purchase Orders required to be
accepted under the foregoing sentence will be deemed to have been accepted to the extent provided
for in such sentence with or without written confirmation. SPT shall not be bound by any Purchase
Order that is not accepted or deemed accepted pursuant to this Section. Except as otherwise set
forth herein, neither Party may modify or cancel a confirmed Purchase Order without the written
consent of the other Party, provided, however, that PGx shall be obligated to purchase up to [*]%
of the quantity of Product ordered in the applicable Purchase Order provided such amount otherwise
meets the terms of this CSA.
3.3. Conflicts between Purchase Orders and this Agreement. In the event of a conflict
between the terms and conditions of any Purchase Order submitted by PGx, or written acceptance
thereof by SPT, such terms and conditions shall be of no force and effect, whether or not objected
to by SPT, and nothing in any such Purchase Orders or written acceptance shall supersede the terms
and conditions of this Agreement.
3.4. Projected Shortages. Subject to Section 3.2, in the event SPT, upon receiving
any forecast or anytime thereafter, determines that it is, or that it likely will be, unable to
meet
such forecast, either in whole or in part, then SPT shall give PGx written notice of such
inability or potential inability within [*] Business Days of making such determination. SPT shall
meet with PGx, or have a teleconference with PGx, within [*] days of such written notice. Both
Parties shall negotiate in good faith to reach an agreement on alternatives for meeting PGx’s
forecast for Product, including but not limited to, if mutually agreed by the Parties, expansion of
the Facility, hiring of additional personnel, replacement or updating of the Facility’s equipment
or utilizing the Second Facility (if applicable) or adjusting the forecasting and Purchase Order
lead times, minimum order quantities or other logistical factors, in order to satisfy PGx’s demand
for Product, such expansion, updating or other alternative to be capable of completion within a
reasonable time agreed to by the Parties at such meeting. [*]

each Party’s sole discretion), SPT will designate, qualify in compliance with all Applicable Laws
and Health Registrations and at all times maintain at least [*] manufacturing facility (other than
the Facility) (the “Second Facility”) to manufacture and test Product. If such agreement is
made, it shall require that prior to designating or utilizing the Second Facility, and subject to
the terms of this CSA, SPT shall obtain PGx’s prior approval of such Second Facility.

DELIVERY
4.1. Shipping. SPT shall ship each order of Product to the Delivery Point (and
deliver each order of Product to the Exchange Point) using the carrier and route specified by PGx,
and all shipments shall, unless otherwise agreed to by the parties, be made FCA the Exchange Point
(Incoterms 2000), and title and risk of loss shall pass to PGx upon delivery to the designated
carrier at the Exchange Point. SPT will ship Product using packaging components specified in the

master carton labeling must meet Healthcare Distribution Management Association (HDMA) guidelines.
All Product delivered hereunder shall be accompanied by the following documentation, at minimum:
(i) the batch number and order number of the delivered Product; (ii) a Certificate of Analysis and
a Certificate of Conformance, as described in Section 6.1; (iii) a packing list; (iv) appropriate

customs (and the Parties shall mutually agree and cooperate with each other as to such
documentation). Time is of the essence with respect to delivery of Product by SPT under this CSA.
SPT shall report to PGx the occurrence of any event within or beyond its control which is likely to
affect delivery of any order of Product If necessary for SPT to meet its delivery requirements,
SPT, at its expense, will use expedited delivery methods to complete and deliver Product.
4.2. Delivery Failures. If SPT fails to deliver any Product at the time and place set
forth in the applicable Purchase Order (subject to a [*]% quantity shortage allowance) or fails to
deliver Product which shall comply in all respects
to this CSA and the Quality Agreement, or SPT informs PGx that such a failure will or is
likely to occur, PGx shall have the right: [*]. In the event that SPT fails to deliver at least
[*]% of the amount of Product ordered pursuant to valid Purchase Orders in any rolling [*]
consecutive month period in accordance with the terms of such Purchase Orders, such failure shall
constitute a material breach of this Agreement by SPT giving rise to PGx’s right to terminate this
Agreement pursuant to Section 12.2 with respect to Product and PGx shall be relieved from its
Minimum Purchase Commitment through the next year (but, for clarity, in such event, SPT’s supply
obligation to PGx set forth in Section 2 shall remain exclusive, and the Minimum Purchase
Commitment shall apply again beginning in the subsequent [*] months thereafter) and may adjust
not-in-process Purchase Orders accordingly. PGx’s rights pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall limit
any other rights of PGx under this Agreement, other than PGx’s right to terminate this Agreement
with respect to such Product pursuant to Section 12.2. and PGx’s rights under Section 5.2. To
avoid doubt, SPT’s obligations

documentation regarding such quantities which documentation is provided to PGx (“Latent Defect”),
within [*] days after discovery by PGx, but not after the expiration date of the Product), if PGx
determines that all or any portion of Product delivered hereunder fails to conform with the
relevant Purchase Order or the provisions of this CSA, PGx may deliver to SPT a Deficiency Notice.
Except with respect to Latent Defects, if SPT does not receive a Deficiency Notice within [*] days
after arrival of Product at the Delivery Point, the shipment of Product shall be deemed irrevocably
accepted. Upon receipt of a Deficiency Notice, SPT shall have [*] days to advise PGx by notice in
writing that it disagrees with the contents of such Deficiency Notice. If PGx and SPT fail to
agree within [*] days of PGx receipt of the SPT notice, then the Parties agree to engage a
non-Party laboratory or GMP/quality professional (mutually acceptable to both Parties acting
reasonably and whose performance is subject to verification by both Parties) that does not
otherwise provide goods or services to SPT or PGx to determine whether Product conformed to the
Purchase Order and the provisions of this CSA and the Quality Agreement. In either event, if it is
subsequently established by such non-Party laboratory or GMP/quality professional that such Product
indeed conformed with all of the Purchase Order, this CSA, and the Quality Agreement at the time
SPT delivered it to PGx (i.e., by delivery to the Exchange Point), PGx shall pay the full price of
the
quantity of Product it rejected, plus the costs of such testing. If such laboratory or
GMP/quality professional establishes that such Product did not conform with any of the Purchase
Order, this CSA, or the Quality Agreement at the time SPT delivered it to PGx, SPT shall promptly
resolve the documentation deficiency or replace defective Product with an equal amount of
conforming Product at no charge to PGx (including materials, processing, shipping and such
testing). Notwithstanding the foregoing, PGx shall have no obligation to pay for any Product which
is the subject of a Deficiency Notice until/unless SPT delivers, and PGx accepts (such acceptance
not to be withheld in conflict with the third party laboratory’s finding), Product which complies
with the terms of this CSA.
5.2 Product Shortage. PGx shall notify SPT in writing of any shortage (relative to the
applicable Purchase Order) in quantity of any shipment of Product within [*] Business Days after

receipt of the Product by PGx. In the event of such shortage, SPT shall ship the portion of the
shorted Product to make up the shortage within [*] Business Days following the date on which SPT
received notice of such shortage from PGx, at no cost to PGx, subject to SPT having the amount of
such shortage in inventory at the time SPT receives such notice. If SPT does not have the amount
of such shortage in inventory at the time SPT receives such notice, then either (a) SPT will make
up such amount as an additional amount provided to PGx with PGx’s next order of Product not already
in process at the time the shortage is notified to SPT, or (b) PGx shall be entitled to cancel the
portion of the affected Purchase Order (i.e., the shorted portion).

after it is determined that the event requiring such notification is or may be associated with
amounts of Product supplied by SPT under this CSA. SPT shall immediately upon receipt (within one
(1) Business Day) deliver to PGx a copy of all notices, correspondence and other communications
received by it from the FDA or any other Regulatory Authority related to Product in any way ,

monitoring ADEs; (ii) data collection activities that occur between PGx and the patient or medical
professional, as appropriate, including any follow-up inquiries that PGx deems necessary or
appropriate; and (iii) making any reports to any Regulatory Authorities with respect to Product.
6.5. Product Recalls. PGx shall, as and to the extent it deems appropriate in its sole
discretion, conduct any recall or other corrective action with respect to Finished Product at its
own expense, except that SPT shall reimburse PGx for the costs of such recall or other corrective
action (including, without limitation, reimbursing PGx for recalled Finished Product at the cost
paid by PGx therefor, the expense of notification and the costs of the return and destruction of
the recalled Finished Product) to the extent such recall or other corrective action results from
the negligent manufacture, testing or storage of such Product,
13
starting materials, or components by SPT or if SPT fails to comply with its representations and
warranties set forth in this CSA; provided, however, SPT shall have no liability under this Section
for such recalls or other corrective actions related to quantities of Product arising after (or
notified between the Parties after) their shelf life as expired. In no event shall SPT initiate a
recall or other corrective action with respect to Product or Finished Product.
6.6. Regulatory Inspections. In the event that the Facility is inspected by any duly
authorized Governmental Authority or Regulatory Authority (including, without limitation, mock
inspections) and the inspection is related to Product, SPT shall (within one (1) business day)
notify PGx of such inspection and allow PGx, at its discretion, to be present during the
inspection. SPT further agrees to keep PGx informed to the maximum practicable extent as to the
progress and results of any inspection (related to Product) of the Facility. SPT shall promptly
(within two (2) Business Days) provide PGx a copy of any report directly related to Product
received by SPT as a result of such inspection and shall allow PGx an opportunity to comment upon
its proposed response. SPT will not charge PGx for such SPT activities. SPT will not deny a request
for an inspection by a Governmental Authority or Regulatory Authority related to Product without
prior written consent of PGx, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. To avoid doubt,
SPT is not required to provide information as to any inspection that is solely related to a product
that is not the Product of this CSA.
6.7. Facility Inspections. During the term of this CSA, PGx may conduct audits of
SPT, the Qualified Vendors and SPT’s suppliers and approved subcontractors (if any) at reasonable
times, upon [*] days notice and in a reasonable and non-disruptive manner to observe the
manufacturing of Product on-site, to review records relevant to such manufacturing, and to speak
with personnel knowledgeable about such manufacturing and/or such records, in each case to
establish and confirm compliance with the Specifications, cGMPs and such other manufacturing,
quality and regulatory matters as may affect Product at no cost to PGx.
6.8. Product Samples. SPT shall store and retain sufficient samples of (a) Product that it
supplies to PGx; and (b) materials and components, including but not limited to, Key Materials,
released for and used to manufacture Product (except water, compressed gases and highly volatile
compounds) in accordance with SPT’s SOP QC-0003 (as it may be updated by SPT as long as in

Law)). [*] The work to implement the change shall be subject to a statement of work being added by
mutual agreement of the Parties to the MSA, [*]. SPT is not required to do the implementation
until such statement of work has been added to the MSA. Changed Specifications shall only apply to
Product ordered after the implementation of the

Authority, with respect to such changes and for seeking approval from each applicable Governmental
Authority and Regulatory Authority, in accordance with Applicable Law, and SPT shall provide
reasonable assistance to PGx in connection with respect thereto, as provided in Article 11.
Notwithstanding anything express or implied, to avoid doubt, it is PGx’s responsibility to
identify in writing to SPT any new jurisdictions where a new NDA will be filed (by way of
background, the process and Specifications in effect as of signing were prepared for U.S.
compliance, and as PGx extends its activities into additional countries, additional regulatory
requirements may become applicable), and to the extent that this causes any change to
Specifications, the change to Specifications shall be implemented according to this Section 6.9.

Quality Agreement attached hereto Exhibit F (the “Quality Agreement”). To the extent that
the terms of this CSA and those of the Quality Agreement are in conflict, (i) the Quality Agreement
