All payments made hereunder shall be made in U.S. dollars by wire transfer to Company’s account as identified by Company in writing. For clarity, Scynexis shall have no obligation to pay for any Services, including Deliverables, that do not materially conform to the applicable specification or warranties set forth in this Agreement and/or the Project Addendum.
3.3 Late Payment. Any undisputed amount not paid when due shall bear a late payment charge, until paid, at the rate of [*] or, if less, the maximum amount permitted by law. Scynexis shall reimburse Company for all reasonable costs (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by Company in collecting late payments, including late payment charges, from Scynexis.

Exhibit 10.2
Term for a minimum aggregate Purchase Price equal to $3,300,000 (the “Initial Term Commitment Amount”). Subject to the carry forward set forth in Section 3.5 below, Scynexis shall purchase at least $[*] of Services for each of the [*] calendar quarters during the first [*] month period following the Effective Date (each such quarterly amount, a “Minimum Quarter Commitment Amount” and each relevant three-month period commencing on the Effective Date, a “Commitment Quarter”). Subject to the carry forward set forth in Section 3.5 below, to the extent that Scynexis purchases Services, and Company performs such Services, during any given Commitment Quarter in an amount greater than the Minimum Quarter Commitment Amount (such excess purchase amount, an “Excess Purchase Amount”), (i) Scynexis shall pay the Excess Purchase Amount (less any Unapplied Payment Amount which is eligible to be applied during that Commitment Quarter) to Company reasonably promptly upon Company’s delivery to Scynexis of an invoice therefore by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Company and (ii) the Minimum Quarter Commitment Amount and Quarterly Payment for future Commitment Quarters shall be reduced by [*]. By way of illustration, if Scynexis were to purchase $[*] of Services in the 1st Commitment Quarter, then [*] will be applied to reduce future Minimum Quarter Commitment Amounts and Quarterly Payments, [*], the Minimum Quarter Commitment Amount and Quarterly Payment for which shall be reduced by $[*]; if then Scynexis were to purchase $[*] of Services in the 2nd Commitment Quarter, then [*] will be applied to reduce future Minimum Quarter Commitment Amounts and Quarterly Payments, first reducing the remaining Minimum Quarter Commitment Amount and Quarterly Payment [*], then reducing Minimum Quarter Commitment Amount and Quarterly Payment [*].
3.5 Payment Schedule; Carry Forward.
(a) Subject to the carry forward set forth below, on the first business day of each Commitment Quarter during the Initial Term until the aggregate amount paid by Scynexis under this Agreement reaches $3,300,000, Scynexis shall pay to the Company, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Company, an amount equal to the Minimum Quarter Commitment Amount (each, a “Quarterly Payment” and collectively, the “Service Payments”) in advance for such Commitment Quarter.
(b) To the extent that the aggregate Purchase Price of Services delivered by Company pursuant to this Agreement during any Commitment Quarter is less than the applicable Minimum Quarter Commitment Amount (such deficiency, an “Unapplied Payment Amount”), such Unapplied Payment Amount shall carry forward and shall be applied to Services performed during [*] following Commitment Quarters after the Commitment Quarter in which such Unapplied Payment Amount was generated (the “Carry Forward Limit”) until such Unapplied Payment Amount is fully applied; provided that any Unapplied Payment Amounts that remain after the Carry Forward Limit shall be [*]. For clarity, any Unapplied Payment Amount shall be applied first to the Services in respect of the immediately following Commitment Quarter (before the new Quarterly Payment is applied), such that any balance with respect to such new Quarterly Payment shall be a new Unapplied Payment Amount and can be applied to [*] following Commitment Quarters.
[*] = Certain confidential information contained in this document, marked by brackets, has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 24b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
Exhibit 10.2
(c) For clarity, Scynexis shall have no obligation to pay and purchase any Services in excess of $3,300,000 during the Initial Term except to the extent such Services are mutually agreed between Company and Scynexis pursuant to a Project Addendum.
3.6 Company’s Obligation to Provide Services. In consideration of the minimum purchase obligation set forth above, Company shall accept all Project Addenda (including Change Orders) proposed by Scynexis that (a) in the aggregate, do not exceed the Initial Term Commitment Amount; (b) are based on the price schedule set forth in Appendix A; (c) contemplate Services generally provided by Company in the ordinary course of business and (d) contemplate Services that are within Company’s internal safety guidelines and operational capabilities. If Company does not accept any such Project Addendum, then both the Initial Term Commitment Amount and the applicable Minimum Quarter Commitment Amount for the Commitment Quarter for which such Project Addendum is proposed shall be reduced by the amount of payment set forth in such Project Addendum, and Company shall promptly refund such amount to Scynexis if Scynexis has already paid the full amount of such Minimum Quarter Commitment Amount for such Commitment Quarter.
4. Term and Termination.
4.1 Agreement. Unless sooner terminated in accordance with Section 4.3 hereof or upon the mutual written agreement of the Parties, the term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and continue in effect for a period of eighteen (18) months (the “Initial Term”); provided that all Project Addenda still in effect shall continue in effect only until the completion of the Services under such outstanding Project Addendum, subject to Section 4.3.

Such written notice shall state the effective date of termination, which may be immediate; provided that, if the Non-defaulting Party does not terminate this Agreement or such Project Addendum within [*] days following the failure of the Defaulting Party to cure such breach, the Non-defaulting Party shall be deemed to have waived the right to terminate this Agreement or such Project Addendum on account of such breach for purposes of this Section 4.3(a). For clarity, such waiver shall not affect any other remedies available to Non-defaulting Party for such breach, including without limitation the right to seek damages.

Upon early termination of this Agreement or any Project Addendum, Scynexis shall promptly compensate Company for all undisputed amounts relating to Services performed, as well as for non-cancellable third party commitments, if any, hereunder or under the applicable Project Addendum prior to the effective date of termination and for which Company has not yet been compensated, and to the extent the Service Payments already paid by Scynexis are in excess of the aggregate amount due to Company for Services performed, Company shall promptly refund such excess amount to Scynexis.

Following the Effective Date, Company and Scynexis shall negotiate in good faith to enter into a commercial supply agreement (the “Supply Agreement”), pursuant to which Company shall provide clinical and registrational requirements and other services to Scynexis following the expiration of the Initial Term at services levels mutually agreed upon between Company and Scynexis.

7. Intellectual Property.
7.1 For purposes hereof, “Scynexis Background IP” means all Intellectual Property owned by Scynexis as of the date hereof (after giving effect to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement) or developed by or on behalf of Scynexis other than in connection with the Services provided hereunder. “Company Background IP” means all Intellectual Property owned by Company as of the date hereof (after giving effect to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement) or developed by or on behalf of Company other than in connection with the Services provided hereunder.
