(a)    Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in consideration of the amounts payable by Recipient pursuant to Article 4, Supplier shall (i) Manufacture at the applicable Supplier Manufacturing Facilities the products set forth in Appendix A (the “Products”) and (ii) sell the Products to Recipient for any lawful use or purpose ((i) and (ii) together constitute the “Contract Manufacturing Services”) and (iii) Deliver the

-8-

Confidential Treatment Requested by 3M Health Care Company

Pursuant to 17 C.F.R. Section 200.83

Products to Recipient. Appendix A sets forth a complete list of the Supplier Manufacturing Facilities and Products as of the Effective Date, including for each Product the applicable Service Term, lead times, packaging, Prices (as defined below) and other details.

(b)    Recipient understands and agrees that neither Supplier nor any of its Affiliates is in the business of providing Contract Manufacturing Services to Third Parties and is not a professional services provider and that Supplier and its Affiliates have no interest under any circumstances in continuing, and shall not be obligated to continue, (i) any Contract Manufacturing Service beyond its Service Term or (ii) this Agreement beyond the Final Term.

(c)    Recipient (or its relevant Affiliate) shall at all times bear the risk of loss for all Products (including in-process inventory which shall include raw materials) to be Manufactured and Delivered to Recipient by Supplier, including during the time Supplier (or its Affiliate) holds legal title to such Products or in-process inventory or stores the Products or in-process inventory at the Supplier Manufacturing Facilities prior to the Delivery or sale of such Products to Recipient.

(d)    Product Discontinuation; PFAS.

(i)    Supplier may discontinue a Product on an individual basis, and the discontinuation of one or more Products shall not constitute a termination of the Agreement. Except as set forth in Section 2.1(d)(ii),  Supplier’s right to discontinue a Product is limited to situations where Supplier is taking such action to address stewardship or regulatory concerns, which may include, but is not limited to, actual or potential enforcement actions, legal or regulatory concerns from agencies or other governmental authorities, permits or other operating approvals that may impact production, costs or liabilities relating to operations, or Supplier’s environmental and stewardship commitments. Supplier will give one year advance prior notice of discontinuation where the circumstances permit such a time period, otherwise Supplier will give advance notice as is practicable under the circumstances. For any Product discontinuation the SA Contacts will determine whether additional Product capacity exists beyond the relevant Forecast and/or historical purchase quantities and agree upon and document any final purchase quantities and timing. Where any Product discontinuation occurs under this Section 2.1(d)(i) and agreement on final purchase quantities cannot be reached in a reasonable amount of time, the matter will be escalated to the TCMA Sub-Committee.

(ii)    Supplier is planning to exit the manufacture and supply of Products consisting of, containing, or manufactured with the aid of, per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (“PFAS” and such Products the “PFAS Products”). Recipient is fully aware of this exit. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement or any other Ancillary Agreement, including any Product Forecast, order, terms and conditions, or other documents exchanged between the Parties, Supplier may, without any liability whatsoever, discontinue or suspend the manufacture, distribution or supply of PFAS Products at any time, and/or Supplier may offer to substitute such PFAS Products with reformulated products to remove the use of PFAS at Supplier’s election (it being

-9-

Confidential Treatment Requested by 3M Health Care Company

Pursuant to 17 C.F.R. Section 200.83

understood that Recipient may reject such offer in its sole discretion), subject in the event of any such discontinuation, suspension or substitution to giving advance prior notice that Supplier deems reasonable under the circumstances (which, for the avoidance of doubt, may be may be less than the notice periods required pursuant to the foregoing Section 2.1(d)(i), or may be no notice at all if Supplier determines that providing notice is not practical under the circumstances) to such discontinuation, suspension or substitution. Recipient and its Affiliates may not, under any circumstances, attempt to pull orders or quantities of PFAS Products forward or otherwise build inventory that exceeds Recipient’s and its Affiliates actual consumption in the relevant quarter. Supplier’s rights hereunder expressly include that Supplier may discontinue or reduce the quantity of PFAS Products available in its complete and sole discretion at any time upon such advance prior notice that Supplier deems reasonable under the circumstances (which, for the avoidance of doubt, may be less than the notice periods required pursuant to Section 2.1(d)(i) or may be no notice at all if Supplier determines that providing notice is not practical under the circumstances), including reducing or rejecting the quantities identified in Forecasts and/or orders, even if previously accepted.

Section 2.2.    Supplier’s Affiliates and Third Party Providers.

(a)    In providing the Contract Manufacturing Services to Recipient, Supplier may (i) use its own personnel, (ii) use any of the personnel of any of its Affiliates (each such Affiliate involved in the provision of the Transition Services a “Service Affiliate”), or (iii) employ the services of qualified contractors, subcontractors, vendors or other Third Party providers, (each, a “Third Party Provider”); Recipient’s written consent shall only be required prior to engaging a Third Party Provider if (x) expressly required by the Quality Agreement or Appendix A for a specific Contract Manufacturing Service, or (y) in Supplier’s reasonable opinion, after consultation with Recipient, the usage of a Third Party Provider would be expected to have a material negative impact on the provision of the Contract Manufacturing Services.

(b)    Each of Supplier and any of its Affiliates or Third Party Providers used by Supplier to provide Contract Manufacturing Services shall be referred to as a “Supplier Party.” Where this Agreement imposes obligations on Supplier or any Supplier Party, Supplier shall cause and compel each Service Affiliate or, as applicable, direct each Third Party Provider to perform such obligations and comply with the terms of this Agreement, provided, that, Supplier shall, subject to Section 10.2(d), remain responsible for such Supplier Party’s compliance with the terms of this Agreement.

Section 2.3.    Product Specifications. Supplier will Manufacture each Product for Recipient in accordance with the applicable Specifications as determined and provided by Recipient. Specifications are set forth in the Quality Agreement or may be agreed to by the Parties using such other system(s), database(s), and/or document(s) as the Parties may agree to confirm applicable Specifications. Where a written Specification does not exist, either Party may initiate discussions on creating and including such documentation under this Agreement. Where no documented Specification exists, then references to the Specifications as set forth herein will mean that the Product meets the manufacturing release standards and release processes

-10-

Confidential Treatment Requested by 3M Health Care Company

Pursuant to 17 C.F.R. Section 200.83

customarily used by Supplier for that Product of Recipient immediately prior to the Effective Date.

Section 2.4.    Nature and Quality of Contract Manufacturing Services. Supplier shall provide the Contract Manufacturing Services, if nothing applicable is specified in Appendix A or the Quality Agreement, with at least substantially the same degree of care, skill, quality (including skill and diligence), and manner of performance used by Supplier or its Affiliates, as applicable, in providing substantially similar services to its own internal organization at the time the Contract Manufacturing Services are performed.

Section 2.5.    Supplier’s Policies and Procedures. The Contract Manufacturing Services shall be provided by Supplier in accordance with Supplier’s and each Service Affiliate’s policies and procedures that are applicable at the time the Contract Manufacturing Services are provided. If Recipient accesses Supplier’s systems or premises or otherwise utilizes Supplier’s facilities or equipment, Supplier shall so inform Recipient and specify the relevant policies or procedures to Recipient, and Recipient shall then conform to the requirements of such policies or procedures while having access to such systems or premises utilizing such facilities or equipment. Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit Supplier or, as applicable, the Service Affiliates from making changes from time to time to such policies and procedures; provided, however, that any changes to such policies and procedures shall not materially change the care, skill and diligence applicable to the provision of any Contract Manufacturing Services hereunder. If Recipient cannot – using commercially reasonable efforts – comply with any of the above changes, the Parties will discuss in good faith to find an approach to address any issues or find reasonable work-arounds at Recipient’s sole cost and expense.

Section 2.6.    Labelling and Packaging of Products; Design Changes. As of the Effective Date and excluding changes to branding, naming, or trademarks, Supplier will continue to package Product as it was packaged and labeled immediately prior to the Effective Date. To the extent practicable, content and format details for packaging and labeling should be set forth in documentation maintained by the Parties, which may be compiled with the Specifications or in such other manner as the Parties designate. For Product where packaging and labeling documentation is specified, Supplier is responsible to supply Product in accordance therewith. Where Recipient requests that packaging be changed or modified, or that new packaging be implemented, the Parties will cooperate to implement such change on a reasonable timeline and work through existing inventory to avoid waste or scrapped inventory or packaging, and Product pricing will be adjusted to reflect the change (increase or decrease) in costs. Where Recipient mandates that such change take place more quickly than can be agreed to by Supplier, Recipient is responsible to reimburse Supplier for scrapped inventory and waste. 

Section 2.7.    Limitations to Supplier’s Obligations. In addition to any other limitation or exclusion of Supplier’s obligations or liability hereunder, the Parties agree as follows:

(a)    Capacity Limitations. Subject to Section 5.2, Supplier shall provide all Contract Manufacturing Services in accordance with the applicable Demand Plan and Product Forecast.

-11-

Pursuant to 17 C.F.R. Section 200.83

(b)    Maintenance and Shutdowns. Supplier and the applicable Service Affiliates shall have the right in their sole discretion to determine that it is necessary or appropriate to temporarily suspend the Contract Manufacturing Services due to scheduled or emergency maintenance, modification, repairs, updates or upgrades, alterations or replacements of any of systems or operations which are required to provide Contract Manufacturing Services (a “Shutdown”). Supplier will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Recipient with reasonable written notice of such Shutdowns as soon as reasonably practicable. If the obligations of Supplier to provide the Contract Manufacturing Services are suspended in accordance with Section 2.7(b), (i) no Party shall have any liability whatsoever to the other Party directly arising out of or relating to such suspension; and (ii) any payment of Prices for suspended Contract Manufacturing Services is suspended as well. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Shutdown continues materially longer than anticipated, the Parties will discuss in good faith an alternative to the affected Contract Manufacturing Services.

(c)    Legal Compliance. Supplier shall not be required hereunder to take any action (including by providing any Contract Manufacturing Services or information pursuant to Section 2.8) that would constitute, or that Supplier reasonably believes would constitute, (i) a violation of any applicable Law (including any failure to hold an applicable permit); (ii) a breach of a Supplier Party’s contractual obligations, or (iii) any other violation of a Third Party’s rights; provided, however, that in each of the foregoing circumstances, Supplier shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Recipient with reasonably prompt written notice upon becoming aware of such impediment and the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to identify a commercially reasonable alternative to the affected Contract Manufacturing Services at Recipient’s sole cost and expense.

(d)    Product Regulatory Requirements. For the purpose of clarity, and without limiting any other limitation or exclusion of Supplier’s obligations or liability hereunder, Supplier Parties shall not be responsible under this Agreement for any Regulatory Requirements (except as may be required as part of the Specifications). If Recipient requests information reasonably required for, and related to, Regulatory Requirements, Supplier Parties shall cooperate in good faith by providing Recipient relevant Product information reasonably available to Supplier.

Section 2.8.    Information, Cooperation, and Other Assistance. Recipient shall cooperate with any Supplier Party as reasonably necessary for the performance of the Contract Manufacturing Services. Upon Supplier’s request, Recipient shall provide any relevant Supplier Party with all information available to Recipient that is reasonably necessary to perform any Contract Manufacturing Services or the Exit Support; provided that Recipient shall not be required to disclose any information to the extent disclosure to the applicable Supplier Party is not permitted under applicable Law or disclosure of such information is subject to any contractual restrictions that prevent Recipient from disclosing such information. If and to the extent Recipient (or any of its personnel) has been performing functions or provided other contributions in support of the receipt of Contract Manufacturing Services at the Effective Date, Recipient shall continue to perform such functions or contributions. If Recipient fails to perform such functions or contributions, Supplier shall have no obligation to provide the relevant

-12-

Pursuant to 17 C.F.R. Section 200.83

Contract Manufacturing Service and shall not be responsible for any Damages resulting therefrom.

Section 2.9.    Access.

(a)    To the extent reasonably required for any relevant Supplier Party to perform, or otherwise make available, the Contract Manufacturing Services or Exit Support, or for Recipient to receive the Contract Manufacturing Services or Exit Support, the Party granting such access shall, and shall ensure that its Affiliates shall, without any charge,

(i)    provide any relevant Party with reasonable access, on an as-needed basis, to any of such Party’s or its Affiliates’ equipment, office space, plants, telecommunications, devices, and computer equipment and systems (subject to Section 10.10 of the Transition Services Agreement (which shall apply mutatis mutandis to this Agreement pursuant to Section 12.1)) and any other areas and equipment; and

(ii)    perform any tasks and provide any acknowledgments or materials specified to be provided by either Party in Appendix A related to such access.

Supplier shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the disruption to Recipient’s operations in exercising such access rights.

(b)    Each Supplier Party shall, without any charge: (i) provide Recipient with reasonable access upon reasonable request in advance to Supplier and any relevant Affiliate, to the Recipient Equipment and inventories of Products and raw materials and works-in-progress used to Manufacture the Products, in each case located at such Supplier Manufacturing Facility; (ii) perform any tasks and provide any acknowledgments, approvals or notifications or materials specified to be provided by Supplier related to such access; and (iii) cooperate with Recipient in the planning, staging and removal of the respective assets from such Supplier Manufacturing Facility in accordance with the Exit Plan. Each Supplier Party shall grant the access described in this Section 2.9(b) during business hours (unless such access is needed urgently or related to an emergency) and the accessing party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the disruption to Supplier’s operations in exercising such access rights.

Section 2.10.    TCMA Sub-Committee. The Parties agree that the Transition Committee shall, during its first meeting, establish a TCMA subcommittee to provide oversight for the administration of this Agreement in accordance with Section [2.16] of the SDA (the “TCMA Sub-Committee”) and determine the procedures and composition of the TCMA Sub-Committee to manage all responsibilities delegated to it by the Transition Committee. The Parties shall set out the procedures and composition of the TCMA Sub-Committee determined by the Transition Committee on a schedule to the SDA.

Section 2.11.    Exit of Contract Manufacturing Services.

Manufacture of the Products and establish infrastructure and systems with the objective to enable a transition of the Contract Manufacturing Services to its own manufacturing facilities (or to a Third Party Provider designated to take over the Manufacture of Products) (the “Exit”) as soon as possible.

(b)    Upon Recipient’s request, Supplier shall, during the term of this Agreement, support the Exit to the extent reasonably required for the orderly hand-over of the Contract Manufacturing Services to Recipient or any Affiliate or Third Party designated by Recipient (the “Exit Support”); provided, however, that the Exit Support shall not exceed consultation and support from five (5) full time employees for five (5) business days prior to the Exit and five (5) business days following the Exit unless expressly agreed in advance by both Supplier and Recipient.

(c)    Within ninety (90) business days after the Effective Date, the Parties shall in good faith agree on a plan to promote a smooth and orderly wind down and transition to Recipient or the appropriate vendor of the Contract Manufacturing Services (including an inventory build plan) and the Exit Support to be provided by Supplier (the “Exit Plan”). The Exit Plan shall also include the identification of necessary input materials for certain Products, which input materials will be provided by Supplier to Recipient under the Master Supply Agreement in connection with the Exit and thereafter. Recipient shall be responsible for the preparation and the provision of the final Exit Plan as early as possible for Supplier’s review and input. Once agreed, both Parties shall comply with the terms of the Exit Plan, including in relation to timelines and milestones defined therein and a periodic review of the implementation of the Exit Plan once every thirty (30) days starting from the agreement of the Exit Plan by the TCMA Sub-Committee.

(d)    Except as otherwise stated in this Agreement or as otherwise agreed in the Exit Plan, each Party shall be responsible for the costs and expenses incurred by it and its Affiliates in connection with the Exit.

promptly provide Recipient written notice of such repair or maintenance, including a good faith estimate of the time, disruption to operations and cost associated therewith and, if applicable a recommended Third Party vendor to perform such repair or maintenance ; provided that a Third Party vendor shall only be selected by Recipient to perform such repair or maintenance if the vendor is able to perform such work in a timely manner and is able to avoid undue disruption.

Until the Recipient Equipment shall have been removed from the Supplier Manufacturing Facilities in accordance with Section 3.6, Recipient shall insure the Recipient Equipment against any risk of loss or damage thereto from any cause, including theft, pilferage, deterioration or casualty, except due to intentionally wrongful acts of Supplier. Except as otherwise stated in Section 3.3, Recipient shall bear all costs to replace or repair any Recipient Equipment that have been lost, damaged destroyed, or that are no longer in good repair and working order.
