All API to be supplied under this Agreement shall be manufactured by Manufacturer at the facility [*] (the “Manufacturing Facility”), in conformance with the API Requirements, the Quality Agreement and the terms of this Agreement.
2.2 Forecasts. By the first quarter following the first NDA submission for a product comprising the API, and for each calendar quarter thereafter during the Term, not less than[*] days prior to the beginning of each such calendar quarter, the Company shall provide Manufacturer with a good-faith written forecast of the quantities of API estimated to be required by Company and its designees from Manufacturer during the [*] following the date on which such forecast is provided and the following [*] (the “Rolling Forecast”). The forecasted quantities for the [*] of each Rolling Forecast shall be binding and the forecasted quantities for all subsequent [*] covered by each Rolling Forecast shall be non-binding; provided that Manufacturer shall notify Company promptly following receipt of the applicable Rolling Forecast in the event Manufacturer anticipates that it will be unable to meet Company’s forecasted quantities of API during any month of such Rolling Forecast. For each Rolling Forecast submitted prior to the first date upon which a Regulatory Authority approves Company’s product incorporating the API and Manufacturer as a manufacturer of API for such product (“Commencement Date”), Company shall indicate the anticipated date for the Commencement Date. In the event of a delay in the anticipated Commencement Date, the parties agree that the binding portion of the Rolling Forecast shall be adjusted such that Company shall not be required to purchase API prior to the Commencement Date.
2.3 Orders. Together with each Rolling Forecast, Company shall provide to Manufacturer a purchase order covering the API requirements set forth in the [*] of such Rolling Forecast. For the avoidance of doubt, Company may order additional quantities of API for delivery hereunder in accordance with the lead times therefor and subject to Manufacturer’s total capacity constraints. Manufacturer shall accept all purchase orders that Company issues in accordance with this Article 2, including portions of purchase orders up to [*] more than the quantity forecasted in the most recent Rolling Forecast. Each purchase order shall specify the delivery date(s), delivery location(s) and amount of API to be delivered in accordance with reasonable delivery schedules and lead times as may be agreed upon from time to time by the Parties, provided that the maximum lead time shall not exceed [*] unless otherwise mutually agreed. No terms or conditions contained in any purchase order, order acknowledgement or similar standardized form given or received pursuant to this Agreement shall be construed to amend or modify the terms of this Agreement and, in the event of any conflict, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control, unless the Parties otherwise expressly agree in writing.
2.4 Packaging and Delivery.

2.5 Waste. Manufacturer shall generate, handle, store, ship and dispose of all wastes associated with its manufacture of API in accordance with Applicable Laws.
2.6 Shortage of Supply. If Manufacturer is unable, or anticipates that it will not be able, to deliver API in the quantities and within the time periods specified in any purchase order accepted in accordance with this Agreement (a “Shortage of Supply”), Manufacturer shall notify Company, in writing within [*] of receiving a purchase order, of the same with its best estimate of the duration of the delay. Manufacturer shall, at its own cost, use its best efforts to remedy any Shortage of Supply and resume supplying API meeting the requirements of this Agreement to Company and its designees as soon as possible and, upon Company’s request, Manufacturer shall fully cooperate with Company to secure adequate supplies of API from alternative sources. In the event of a Shortage of Supply, in addition to any other remedies the Company may have at law or in equity, (a) the Company shall be relieved from its obligations to purchase any quantities of API identified in any purchase order and may cancel such quantities effective upon notice to Manufacturer and (b) Manufacturer shall use its best efforts to prioritize supply of API to Company and shall allocate its available capacity to provide Company with API at least in proportion of API forecasted by Company and API forecasted by Third Parties.
2.7 Supply of Samples. Upon Company’s request, and at no cost to Company, Manufacturer will provide Company or its designees with samples of API, reasonable quantities of any non-compendial or not commercially available reference standards and impurities necessary to perform the tests included in the Specification, with certificates of analysis for testing purposes.
2.8 Long-Term Capacity Planning. Not less than once per year, Manufacturer and Company shall discuss Company’s forecasted needs for API and Manufacturer’s capability to meet those needs. Additionally, in the event Manufacturer notifies Company that it will be unable to meet Company’s forecasted quantities for API as set forth in any Rolling Forecast, or upon Company’s reasonable request, the Parties shall discuss in good faith those activities available to the Parties that will enable Manufacturer to meet Company’s long-term requirements for API.

Subject to the foregoing, to the extent possible, the Quality Agreement will be interpreted with the terms set forth in the body of this Agreement. If there is any conflict or inconsistency between the terms of the Quality Agreement and the terms set forth in this Agreement, however, the terms set forth in this Agreement shall control in all non-quality related matters. The Quality Agreement will take precedence in all quality related matters.
3.3 Acceptance Procedure.
(a) Rejection. Acceptance by Company or its designee of API delivered by Manufacturer hereunder shall be subject to inspection and applicable testing by Company or its designee. If as a result of such inspection Company or its designee discovers that any API delivered by Manufacturer under this Agreement fails to conform with the API Requirements, Company or such designee may reject such API by providing Manufacturer written notice thereof within [*] after Company’s or its designees’s receipt of such API. Manufacturer shall either, at Company’s option, replace all properly rejected API within [*] after its receipt of notice of such rejection at no additional cost to Company or its designee (including transportation costs) or refund any amounts Company paid for such properly rejected API. Manufacturer shall make arrangements with Company or its designee, as applicable, for the return or disposal of any API rejected hereunder, and such return, shipping and disposal charges shall be paid by Manufacturer. The warranties given by Manufacturer in Section 8.2 below shall survive any failure to reject by Company under this Section 3.3.
(b) Disputes. Manufacturer shall respond in writing to any rejection notice provided by Company or its designee pursuant to Section 3.3(a) within [*] from Manufacturer’s receipt of such rejection notice. If Manufacturer does not agree with Company’s or its designee’s determination that such API fails to conform to the API Requirements, then the Manufacturer and Company, or Company’s designee, shall use reasonable efforts to resolve such disagreement as promptly as possible. Without limiting the foregoing, Manufacturer and Company, or Company’s designee, shall discussing in good faith mutually acceptable testing procedures pursuant to which both the Manufacurer and Company, or Company’s designee, will re-test a sample of the disputed API to determine whether such API complies with the API Requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Manufacturer and Company, or Company’s designee, are unable to resolve such disagreement within [*] of the date of the applicable rejection notice, either Party (or, in the case of Company, its designee) may submit a sample of such API to an independent laboratory to review records, test data and perform comparative tests and/or analyses promptly on samples of

The independent laboratory’s results shall be in writing and shall be final and binding save for manifest error. Unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties in writing, the costs associated with such testing and review shall be borne by the non-prevailing Party.
3.4 Changes to Specifications. Manufacturer shall not make any major changes to the Specifications, processes, Manufacturing Facility or any other item in any manner that would impact the manufacturing activities related to API, without Company’s prior written approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), except that Manufacturer shall promptly make and implement such changes as are required by Applicable Law (“Required Changes”). Prior to implementation, all Required Changes shall be subject to Company’s written approval, including the timelines, estimated effect on pricing and other issues regarding such implementation. For clarity, for the purposes of this Section 3.4 a “major” change shall include, without limitation, any change that would require the approval by an applicable Regulatory Authority in connection with Company’s finished product containing the API or may affect a regulatory filing made by or under the authority of Company with respect to a finished product containing the API. Without limiting the foregoing, Manufacturer shall provide advance notice to Company of any changes to the Specifications, processes, Manufacturing Facility or any other item in any manner that would impact the manufacturing activities related to API sufficiently in advance of the proposed implementation thereof to allow Company to properly evaluate the impact of such change on any of Company’s products containing the API and to implement appropriate changes to Company’s (or its designee’s) regulatory filings pertaining to such products.
3.5 Deviations. Without limiting Section 3.4 above, in the event any material deviations occur during the course of the manufacture of any batch of API for Company under this Agreement, Manufacturer shall immediately provide Company with a detailed written description of such deviation. In addition, Manufacturer shall undertake all reasonable and appropriate actions to investigate the cause of such deviation and, to the extent applicable to the manufacture of any batch of API for Company under this Agreement, to correct the same as set forth in the Quality Agreement.
