12.2Cerus may terminate this Supply Agreement in its sole discretion at any time by giving Porex at least twelve (12) months’ prior written notice of its intent to terminate this Supply Agreement.

12.4If a Party materially breaches this Supply Agreement and such breach remains uncured for a period of ninety (90) days after written notice containing details of the breach is delivered to the breaching Party, then the non-breaching Party may terminate this Supply Agreement as to the breaching Party by further notice delivered no later than thirty (30) days after the expiration of the initial ninety (90) day cure period.

12.5Each Party may terminate this Supply Agreement effective immediately with written notice in the event the other Party (“Insolvent Party”) files for bankruptcy, is adjudicated bankrupt, takes advantage of applicable insolvency laws, makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, is dissolved or has a receiver appointed for its property (which in the case of a receiver is not removed within thirty (30) days after notice to the Insolvent Party). Such termination is only

AGREEMENT REGARDING THE EXCHANGE
OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

In connection with the possible development, manufacture and sale of certain parts by POREX CORPORATION (“Porex”) to CERUS CORPORATION (“Cerus”) and, collectively with Porex, the “Parties” and each of Porex and Cerus may be referred to individually as a “Party”), Parties have determined that it is necessary and useful for the Parties to exchange Confidential Information belonging to each Party. Except as set forth below, Confidential Information of a Party shall include all information relating to such Party’s (or an affiliate of such Party’s) data, books, records, specifications, trade secrets, know-how, formulas, processes, manufacturing methods, techniques, raw materials, sources of supply, applications for particular technologies, vendor lists, customer lists, employee lists, management systems, financial information, pricing, sales and marketing plans, research and development, inventions, and such other documents and materials that are delivered or otherwise disclosed (including, without limitation, through facility tours) by such Party to the other Party, whether orally or in writing, and whether or not identified as confidential. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Confidential Information shall not include information (i) which is developed or discovered by a Party independent of and without the use of the Confidential Information, (ii) in the possession of both Parties prior to the date of this Agreement and there is competent evidence to establish such fact, (iii) established at any time to be in the public domain otherwise than by breach of this Agreement, or (iv) is required to be disclosed in compliance with any law, governmental regulation, or court order, provided the receiving Party shall notify the disclosing Party in advance of any such disclosure, if feasible, and will assist the disclosing Party in pursuing such nondisclosure or protective orders as may be available. For and in consideration of the mutual promises herein contained, the Parties agree as follows effective the 22 day of February 2007 (the “Effective Date”):

The receiving Party shall keep the Confidential Information secret and confidential and will not, without the prior written consent of the disclosing Party, use or disclose the Confidential Information for the term of this Agreement plus five (5) years, except that the confidentiality obligations with respect to any Confidential Information that constitutes a trade secret shall continue in effect for so long as the information remains a trade secret. The term “trade secret” as used in this Agreement shall mean Confidential Information that: (i) derives economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to, and not being readily ascertainable by proper means by, other persons who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use, and (ii) is the subject of efforts that are reasonable under the circumstances to maintain secrecy. Without limiting any of the other provisions hereof, each Party agrees to use at least the same degree of care to avoid and prevent disclosure of the other Party’s Confidential Information as it uses to prevent disclosure of its own Confidential Information, and in no event less than a reasonable standard of care.

Exhibit H

Cerus –Porex Agreement

A receiving Party will restrict transmission of Confidential Information to those of its directors, officers, employees, agents and affiliates who are consulted concerning the discussions with the disclosing Party and who need to know Confidential Information for the purpose of facilitating those discussions, provided such individuals shall have been advised of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information and the obligations imposed under this Agreement. The receiving Party shall be responsible to the disclosing Party for any improper disclosure or use of the Confidential Information by such persons.

3.	No right of title or interest in or to the Confidential Information or license, either expressed or implied, under any patent, trade secret or otherwise is granted hereunder.

4.	All Confidential Information in tangible form received or delivered hereunder shall be returned within thirty (30) days after the request of the Party submitting it.

5.	The Parties agree that they shall not assume or incur any financial liability merely by receipt of Confidential Information, and any financial, supply or other agreement between the Parties will be covered by subsequent agreement(s).

Each Party acknowledges and agrees that the misappropriation, unauthorized use or disclosure of the Confidential Information of the other Party or its affiliate would cause irreparable harm to the other Party. In the event of a breach of any part of this Agreement, the Party which has been damaged by the breach or such affiliate shall be entitled to relief by appropriate legal or equitable means, including but not limited to a temporary restraining order, temporary injunction and/or permanent injunctive relief, restraining and prohibiting the Party in breach from breaching or continuing to breach the terms of this Agreement. In addition, the Party damaged by the breach or such affiliate shall be entitled to the recovery of any and all damages incurred as a result of such breach, including cost of enforcement, reasonable attorney’s fees and court costs.

This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties, their successors, assigns and affiliates, except that no assignment of any right to access the Confidential Information may be made by the receiving Party without the prior written consent of the disclosing Party. The waiver of any provision in any instance shall not be construed as a waiver in other instances.

This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and with respect to the matters contained herein and supersedes all prior agreements or understandings. This Agreement shall not be modified except in writing signed by both Parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Agreement shall not release either Party from any obligation to the other Party of confidentiality or non-use created pursuant to any prior agreement or understanding between the Parties, and each such obligation shall remain in full force and effect.

9.	The Parties agree that this Agreement is for the purposes of protecting proprietary information only. This Agreement is not a joint venture or other such business arrangement; and any agreement between the Parties as to joint business activities will be set forth in subsequent written agreements.

Exhibit H

Cerus –Porex Agreement

10.

The Parties acknowledge that each of them (or an affiliate thereof) may be engaged now or in the future in a business similar to or competitive with that of the other, and that the terms of this agreement shall in no way restrict either Party from engaging in such business activities, except that each Party shall be bound by its agreements herein as they relate to Confidential Information.

11.

Neither Party under this Agreement shall publicly announce or disclose the existence of this Agreement, or its contents, or any discussions relating thereto, without the prior consent of the other Party or except as may be required by law, in which case the Party required to make disclosure shall give the other Party the maximum feasible prior notice of such disclosure.

12.

This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Georgia, which relate to contracts negotiated, executed and performed within such state, without regard to the conflict of laws provisions thereof, and only the courts sitting in such state shall have exclusive jurisdiction of the Parties for the purposes of adjudicating any disputes under this Agreement. The Parties hereby consent to personal jurisdiction and venue in the courts of the State of Georgia and hereby waive any claim or defense that the party lacks minimum contacts with the forum, that the courts of .the State of Georgia lack personal jurisdiction of the Parties, or that the courts of the State of Georgia are an improper or inconvenient venue. The Parties further agree that service of process may be accomplished by certified mail, return receipt.

13.

This Agreement shall remain in force until the earlier of (i) five (5) years from the Effective Date and (ii) the cancellation of this Agreement by either Party by written notification to the other Party. No expiration, cancellation or termination of this Agreement for any reason will affect the validity and enforceability of the Confidentiality, non-disclosure and non-use provisions contained in Paragraphs 1 and 2 hereof.

The completed signatures of the Parties attest to their mutual agreement to the conditions of this Agreement.
