For purposes of illustration, it is anticipated that on [***], Tricida will provide Patheon with its then-current demand forecast for the Supply Year [***] and the [***] Demand Volume then-specified for the Supply Year [***] will become firm for the Parties, plus or minus [***] of such [***] Demand Volume. This volume shall then replace the number projected for that same Supply Year under Section 5.4(b) [***] Time Point.

(4)[***] Time Point. On [***] and on the [***] (or the next business day if the date occurs on a weekend or holiday) of each following calendar year (the “[***] Time Point”), Tricida shall provide Patheon with its then-current demand forecast for the Manufacture of Product by Patheon for the Supply Year that begins [***] from the [***] Time Point (the “[***] Demand Volume”) and the [***] Demand Volume will become firm for the Parties. This volume shall then replace the number projected for that same Supply Year under Section 5.4(c) [***] Time Point.

For purposes of illustration, it is anticipated that on [***] Tricida will provide Patheon with its then-current demand forecast for the Supply Year [***] and the [***] Demand Volume then-specified for the Supply Year [***] will become firm for the Parties, (i.e., plus or minus [***]). Tricida will promptly issue one or more Purchase Orders for such [***] Demand Volume and Patheon, in accordance with Section 2.5 Order Process; Purchase Orders, shall accept this Purchase Order to create a Firm Order under which Patheon shall Manufacture and Tricida will purchase the volumes of Product specified therein in accordance with the terms of this CSA. Following the start of production of a given manufacturing [***], it is estimated that the first Release of Product will be made after approximately [***].

e.Patheon Maximum Manufacturing Commitment. Each Supply Year during the Term, Patheon commits to Manufacture and reserves the Facility, personnel, equipment and other resources to meet the maximum annual supply and production quantity as set forth in this Section 5.5 (“Maximum Manufacturing Commitment”):

(1)Maximum Manufacturing Commitment for [***] and Supply Year [***]. The Patheon Maximum Manufacturing Commitment for the [***], are as set out in the [***] SOWS, and the Supply Year [***] are the same as the Tricida’s commitment to volumes as set forth in Section 5.1 Initial Commitment.

Beginning as of [***], the Price for Product shall be [***] as [***] in accordance with Exhibit E. Using Exhibit E, the Parties will [***] for other [***] of Product in connection with any Firm Order. The Price for Product shall be stated on a per [***] basis in [***] and, except as expressly provided herein and in Exhibit E, shall include all activities required to Manufacture Product (including any intermediates), including the cost of all Raw Materials other than [***], transportation of Raw Materials to the Facility, and all other steps required for the Manufacture and Release of Product. The Parties agree that Price does not include the costs of [***]. Patheon will be reimbursed for [***] as provided in Section 5.18 Invoicing; Payment Terms.

k.Price [***].

(1)Recovery of Facility Investment. The Parties acknowledge and agree that once Patheon shall have [***] the [***] for its [***] in the Facility Investment ([***] of any [***] attributable to the [***]), in accordance with the methodology set forth in Exhibit E, the [***] shall thereafter be [***]. The Parties agree that Patheon shall have [***] upon the earlier of:

1. the [***]; and

2. Tricida’s exercise of the Option Notice pursuant to Section 5.12 Tricida Option Regarding Price.

(b) Effect of [***] on [***] and Patheon Maximum Manufacturing Commitment. The Parties agree that, in accordance with the methodology set forth in Exhibit E, the [***] shall be [***] to reflect [***] and [***]. In addition, pursuant to the terms of Section 5.5 Patheon Maximum Manufacturing Commitment, [***] shall also increase Patheon’s Maximum Manufacturing Commitment.

1.The Parties, acting reasonably and in good faith, shall mutually agree to carry out [***] during the [***] Manufacturing [***] or later [***] in order to improve the Manufacturing Process as described in Exhibit F. Tricida shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to the implementation of [***] proposed by Patheon.

2.The Parties shall (i) validate [***] during the [***] and, once validated, implement [***] in the production of TRC101 during the [***], and (ii) validate [***] in the preparation of [***] and TRC101 during the [***] and, once validated, implement [***] in the production of [***] and TRC101 after [***] .

3.The Parties shall [***] the [***] and [***] in Supply Year [***] and implement [***] and [***] in the production of TRC101 after [***] by a [***] or at such earlier time as [***] may direct. [***] activities with respect to the [***] of [***] will be the subject of a separate SOW and Tricida shall determine the timing thereof within Supply Year [***]. For clarity, with the exception of the [***] activities, the [***] for the Manufacture of Product during Supply Year [***] will be [***] for the production of [***] and [***] for the production of Product.

4.The Parties, acting reasonably and in good faith, shall collaborate and mutually agree to validate Major Changes during Supply Year [***] or as otherwise agreed upon by the Parties in order to improve the Manufacture of Product.

5.Additionally, the Parties will in good faith collaborate and will separately agree on other Improvement projects. Patheon will use commercially reasonable efforts to effect Improvements, including utilizing, at its expense, its expertise in chemical process. Costs arising in connection with Improvement projects [***] shall be paid by [***], unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in this CSA or a signed document. [***] may develop Improvements directly or through a Third Party. For purposes of clarity, Exhibit F sets forth the documentation of the existing Manufacturing process.

6.Cooperation in Implementing Improvements. Subject to the terms of Section 6.2 Change in Specifications and Section 6.6 Process Change, the Parties will evaluate and, as appropriate, recommend Improvements for implementation into the Manufacture of Product. The Parties will work together cooperatively and use reasonable best efforts to implement any recommended Improvements, including reasonable cooperation with respect to scheduling [***] to [***] any [***] and other steps as necessary to ensure that [***] utilizing [***] conform to this CSA. In addition, Patheon will, at Tricida’s expense, reasonably assist Tricida in its efforts to obtain any Regulatory Approvals necessary or desirable to implement Improvements, including providing technical documentation and support, and Tricida will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such Regulatory Approvals as soon as reasonably possible.

7.Maximum Manufacturing Capability Increase. A further increase of Patheon’s manufacturing capacity beyond [***] is dependent upon [***] and/or the [***], and the mutual agreement of the Parties. The Parties acknowledge and agree that [***] may be required before Patheon commits to undertake any such efforts.

(1)Methodology. Beginning with the Supply Year [***], within 3 months from the conclusion of each [***], Patheon will calculate [***] for any Improvement, if any, using the methodology set forth in Exhibit E. It is agreed by the Parties that for Supply Year [***] and beyond for Price calculation purposes the [***] is capped as follows (even in case the [***]):

[***]

Furthermore, the Price for Product in effect at the start of any given [***] will not increase, even in the event that the [***] for that, or any subsequent [***], exceeds the [***] in effect at the start of such [***] except if there is [***] that [***].

(2)Cycle Time Records. Patheon shall calculate, based on actual Manufacturing data, the Cycle Times for the Manufacture of Product for each [***] and maintain reasonably detailed records of the Cycle Time for the production of Product for each [***]. Those records shall be subject to audit by Tricida from time to time upon reasonable request and advance notice.

(3)[***] Consumption Performance. In due time before the start of the first [***] under this CSA, the Parties shall agree on a conversion ratio for [***] per kg of Product manufactured (the “[***] Consumption Factor”). Thereafter, Patheon will strive to maintain its consumption of [***] over a full [***] on or below the “[***] Consumption Factor”.

If over a full [***] Patheon’s [***] consumption performance falls below the [***] Consumption Factor, the Parties shall meet and discuss and implement appropriate remediation actions to improve the performance.

(4)Costs and Benefits arising from Improvement Projects. Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, [***] of the direct costs and development costs associated with implementation of [***] Improvement project, and [***] of the [***] arising from such [***] will be [***] by way of [***]. For clarity, such Improvement projects may be for the purpose of [***] for Firm Order quantities of less than [***], or increasing Patheon Maximum Manufacturing Commitment to an amount in excess of [***].

a.Tricida Option Regarding [***]. At all times during the Term, Tricida shall have an option to request a [***] in return for a [***] of the remaining [***]. This option may be exercised by Tricida providing Notice to Patheon of the [***] for the (“Option Notice”). After receipt of such Option Notice, the Parties shall meet and calculate the proposed impact of the [***] applying the methodology set forth in Exhibit E (i.e. assuming a [***]). No obligation shall arise until the Parties mutually agree in writing upon the [***] and [***]. In the event that the Parties are not able to reach agreement within [***] after the receipt of the Option Notice, this matter shall be subject to the dispute resolution provisions of Section 19 Governing Law; Dispute Resolution. For the avoidance of doubt, this Option shall be deemed modified to take into account any [***] separately agreed to after [***], if any.

b.Raw Material Cost [***]. Tricida and Patheon agree that, as of the Supply Year [***] and onwards, the [***] in costs of [***] and [***] over the [***] included as part of the [***] shall be treated as [***]. Therefore, if over the course of a [***], the [***] and [***] deviate from the [***] of [***] as per Exhibit E, Patheon shall notify Tricida in writing within 3 months of the end of the respective [***] and provide documentation to provide reasonable substantiation of any [***]. Where there is a variance, the [***] and [***] shall be [***] and a [***] shall be [***] (reflecting the full amount of such [***]) and a [***] made by [***] within [***] of the Parties’ agreement as to the amount of the [***].

c.Consequences of Delay in Delivery. Patheon acknowledges the importance to Tricida of consistent timely delivery of Product in accordance with Firm Orders and the associated costs to Tricida of untimely deliveries which may result in delays in the delivery of veverimer to patients. Therefore, in addition to any rights provided under this CSA, the following shall apply:

(1)Late Fees. In addition to any other rights of Purchaser, at law or in equity, the following rights may arise in case of delays of [***] in Release of Product under any part of a Firm Order starting with the Supply Year [***]. Purchaser may be entitled to take a discount equal to [***] of the invoiced value for delayed Product for every [***] of the delayed shipment subject to a maximum reduction of [***], provided, that Supplier shall not be required to pay such late fee associated with a late delivery if caused by a Force Majeure Event or if the late delivery is attributable to the implementation of an Improvement initiative, or for other reasons outside the control of and not attributable to Supplier, such as, for example, Purchaser’s breach of this CSA or any applicable SOW. Such late fees shall cease to apply with respect to any delayed Product to the extent [***] elects to [***] the quantities in the [***] and [***]. Purchaser may exercise its [***] for any [***] under this Section. Such [***] shall be applied [***] under the related [***] for the [***] and then to other [***].

(2)Significant Delays by Patheon Related to Underperformance. In addition to any other rights that are provided for a breach under this CSA or under Applicable Laws (including any rights of termination), beginning with the Supply Year [***], in the event that any delay in delivery from the scheduled and mutually agreed upon definitive Release Dates mutually agreed upon under Section 2.5 exceeds [***] or that the quantity of Product to be produced during a [***] or a year is [***] or less of the target quantity under a Firm Order for that same time period and such delay is (i) not [***] in connection with [***], or (ii) not caused by other reasons attributable to Tricida, such as for example Tricida’s breach of this CSA or any applicable SOW (each an “Underperformance Event”), by providing Notice of its election or written waiver of its right to the JSC, Tricida, in its sole discretion, may cancel, without liability to Tricida, [***].

(3)Impact of Underperformance on Minimum Commitment; Reductions. In addition to any other rights under this CSA, in the event that Patheon’s Underperformance Event under Section 5.14(b) results in a [***], Tricida shall have a right, exercisable by providing Notice to Patheon, to reduce the quantity for the next Supply Year in an amount [***]. Effective for each subsequent Supply Year after the then-current Supply Year, (i) the quantity in the Firm Order for each such Supply Year shall be reduced [***], (ii) the Minimum Commitment for the corresponding Supply Year shall be similarly reduced but (iii) the [***] for the [***]. For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to reductions under this Sections, Tricida shall not be obligated to pay any amounts to Patheon with respect to the difference in the volume of Products between the Minimum Commitment and the Minimum Commitment as reduced by this Section for the applicable Supply Year(s).

d.Impact for Inventory Overages; Reduction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 5.4 Rolling Forecast for Product, beginning on or after [***], at any [***] Time Point, if, in Tricida’s good faith estimate, the cumulative quantity of Product sold by Tricida over the immediately preceding [***] does not exceed [***] of the cumulative quantity of Product specified in Firm Orders for those same [***] (i) Tricida shall have a right to provide Patheon with a [***] that is less than the Minimum Commitment provided in Exhibit D (“Reduced [***] Demand Volume”) for the Supply Year that begins twelve months from such [***] Time Point (“Reduced Demand Supply Year”), (ii) the Minimum Commitment and the related Firm Orders for the corresponding Reduced Demand Supply Year shall be similarly reduced but (iii) the Price for the affected Firm Order and corresponding Minimum Commitment in such Reduced Demand Supply Year shall remain the same as the Price that Tricida would have otherwise paid if the Firm Order and Minimum Commitment were unchanged. The Reduced [***] Demand Volume and related reduced Firm Orders for a Supply Year may be [***] or [***] or more of Product, but

shall not be between zero and [***] of Product. In addition to payment of the Price for Product delivered, as consideration for the rights granted under this Section to reduce the Minimum Commitment, Tricida shall pay to Patheon an amount equal to [***] (“Reduced Inventory Charge”). Moreover, Tricida shall reimburse Patheon for the non-cancellable Raw Material commitments, if any, which Patheon had already made for the relevant Supply Year prior to receiving the Reduced [***] Demand Volume and such Raw Materials shall be stored for later [***] and Tricida shall receive a credit for any payment under this Section when such Raw Materials are used in subsequent Supply Years.

For purposes of illustration, if Tricida’s good faith estimate of the cumulative quantity of Product sold by Tricida in the [***] Supply Years is [***], the cumulative quantity of Product specified in Firm Orders for those same [***] Supply Years is [***], and the [***] Supply Year is [***], notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 5.4 (i) on [***] Tricida may provide Patheon with a Reduced [***] Demand Volume for any amount that is [***] for the [***] Supply Year [***] and in this example we will use [***], (ii) the Price for the [***] for the [***] Supply Year would be [***] from what the Price otherwise would have been if the Reduced [***] Demand Volume for the [***] Supply Year had been [***], and (iii) [***] would be obligated to [***] for the [***] Supply Year [***].

The JSC shall establish the documentation to be provided by Tricida to Patheon to substantiate the inventory overage calculated under this Section and deadlines for providing such documentation. The Reduced Inventory Charge shall be invoiced by Patheon within [***] after the expiration of each affected Reduced Demand Supply Year and undisputed invoices shall be due and payable not later than [***] after receipt of such invoices.

e.Impact for Delays in Regulatory Approval; Reduction. At any time that, in Tricida’s good faith judgment, there will be a delay in obtaining Regulatory Approval that will likely exceed [***], (i) Tricida shall have a right with respect to the [***] SOWS to reduce its Minimum Commitment and Firm Orders likely to be affected by such delay until such time as Regulatory Approval is obtained, and (ii) Tricida shall have a right at each successive [***] Time Point until Regulatory Approval is obtained to provide Patheon with a [***] Volume for the applicable Reduced Demand Supply Year, and the Minimum Commitment and the related Firm Orders for the corresponding Reduced Demand Supply Year shall be similarly reduced. With respect to Supply Years, the Reduced [***] Demand Volume for any Supply Year and related Firm Orders may be [***] of Product. In the event of any reduction under this Section, the Price for Firm Orders for the reduced Minimum Commitment shall remain the same as the Price that Tricida would have otherwise paid if the Firm Order and Minimum Commitment were unchanged. In addition to payment of the Price for Product delivered, as consideration for the rights granted under this Section to reduce the Minimum Commitment, Tricida shall pay to Patheon the Reduced Inventory Charge for any affected Supply Years [***] as set out on Exhibit D (as adjusted by other provisions of this CSA) and the [***]. The JSC shall establish the documentation to be provided by Tricida to Patheon to substantiate the delay and deadlines for providing such documentation. Moreover, Tricida shall reimburse Patheon for the non-cancellable Raw Material commitments, if any, which Patheon had already made for the [***] prior to receiving the [***] Volume and such Raw Materials shall be stored for later [***] and Tricida shall receive a credit for any payment under this Section when such Raw Materials are used in subsequent Supply Years.

For purposes of illustration, if in Tricida’s good faith judgment Tricida determines in [***] that there will be a [***] that will [***], notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Sections 5.4 (i) on [***] may provide Patheon with a Reduced [***] Demand Volume for [***] and in this example we will use [***] for the [***] Supply Year (i.e., the Reduced Demand Supply Year in this illustration), (ii) the Price for the [***] for the [***] Supply Year would be [***] from what the Price otherwise would have been if the Reduced [***] Demand Volume for the [***] Supply Year had been [***], and (iii) Tricida would be obligated to [***] for the [***] Supply Year [***] (the difference between [***] and [***]).

The Reduced Inventory Charge shall be invoiced by Patheon within [***] after the expiration of each affected Reduced Demand Supply Year and undisputed invoices shall be due and payable not later than [***] after receipt of such invoices.

f.Stability Testing. Upon Tricida’s request Patheon shall conduct stability testing required by cGMP and the Quality Agreement. Any additional stability testing requested by Tricida shall be subject to mutual agreement of the Parties on the protocol, costs and other relevant terms.

g.Invoicing; Payment Terms.

(1)Invoicing and Payment Terms. All arrangements under the CSA shall be expressed in [***]. With respect to the delivery of Product, no payment shall be due and Tricida shall have no obligation to pay until receipt of a proper invoice issued after Release from Patheon or as otherwise agreed between the Parties. Patheon will invoice Tricida for Product after Release. Patheon shall invoice Tricida for Services under any SOW at the time set out in the SOW or if no invoicing provisions with respect to the Services are provided in the SOW, upon completion of the Services. Unless otherwise explicitly stated in this CSA Tricida shall pay invoices within [***] of receipt.

Patheon will invoice Tricida for [***] for any upcoming [***] after receipt of a certificate of analysis for the respective batch from the applicable vendor and Tricida shall pay such invoices within [***] of receipt of each undisputed invoice. Unless otherwise set out in this CSA, all amounts for [***] shall be in USD. In the event that certain volumes of [***] for which Tricida has already made payment under this Section 5.18(a) Invoicing and Payment Terms are deficient, Patheon shall (i) either repay or credit the payment to Tricida, or (ii) arrange for replacement of the deficient [***] at Patheon’s costs.

If any portion of an invoice is disputed, Tricida will pay Patheon the undisputed amount and the Parties will use good faith efforts to resolve the disputed amount as soon as practicable. Interest on undisputed past due accounts will accrue at a rate of [***]. Where there is a variance between the anticipated [***] costs and the actual [***] costs, a balancing payment shall be made by Tricida to Patheon or Patheon to Tricida (as applicable) within [***] from the end of the [***] (based upon a corresponding written report of Patheon).

(2)Right of Set-Off. Without prejudice to any other right or remedy Tricida may have, Tricida reserves the right to set-off at any time any uncontested and/or enforceable counter claims and may withhold payment of line items that are the subject of a good faith dispute until such time as the dispute is resolved, provided that Tricida notifies Patheon of the nature of the dispute promptly following receipt of the invoice. For clarity and the avoidance of doubt, Tricida

shall promptly pay all line items on an invoice that are not subject to a good faith dispute. If not amounts are outstanding, Patheon shall issue a refund payable within [***] of Tricida’s request for same.

(3)Exclusions from Price or Fees in any SOW. Any payment due to Patheon under this CSA in consideration for the provision of Services by Patheon to Tricida is exclusive of value added taxes (“VAT”), turnover taxes, sales taxes or similar taxes, including any related interest and penalties (hereinafter all referred to as “Transaction Tax”). If any Transaction Tax is payable on a Service supplied by Patheon to Tricida under this CSA, this Transaction Tax will be added to the invoice amount as a separate line item and will be for the account of (and reimbursable to Patheon by) Tricida.

(4)Transaction Tax. If any Transaction Tax on the supplies by Patheon is payable by Tricida under a reverse charge or withholding procedure (i.e., shifting of liability, accounting or payment requirement to recipient of supplies), Tricida will ensure that Patheon will not effectively be held liable for this Transaction Tax by the relevant taxing authorities or other parties.

(5)Invoices and VAT. Where applicable, Patheon will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that its invoices to Tricida are issued in such a way that these invoices meet the requirements for deduction of input VAT by Tricida, if Tricida is permitted by law to do so.

(6)Transaction Tax Assistance. Each Party will provide the other with reasonable assistance to enable the recovery, as permitted by applicable laws, of Transaction Tax resulting from payments made under this CSA, such recovery to be for the benefit of the Party bearing such Transaction Tax.

(7)Duties. Tricida will bear the cost of all duties, levies, tariffs and similar charges (and any related interest and penalties) (together “Duties”) however designated, arising from the performance of the Services by Patheon, including (without limitation) those imposed as a result of the shipping of materials (including drug substance, materials, components and finished Product) to, from or between Patheon site(s). If these Duties are incurred by Patheon, then Patheon shall be entitled to invoice Tricida for these Duties at the time that they are incurred. Patheon shall bear and pay all governmental (including federal, state and local) taxes based upon or measured by its net income, its personal property and all franchise taxes based upon its corporate existence, or its general corporate right to transact business. Notwithstanding any contrary terms in this Section 5, in the event of material changes to Applicable Laws that are reasonably likely to materially increase the cost of providing the Services, the Parties shall review the potential impact and negotiate in good faith any applicable changes to the Prices and/or Fees, as applicable.

(8)Disputing Invoices. Tricida may in good faith question any amount invoiced under this CSA. The Parties shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any such questions and shall exchange all relevant documentation that may assist with such resolution. Upon resolution, Tricida shall pay or Patheon shall refund the agreed amount. Undisputed amounts shall be paid according to Section 5.9(a) above. If the Parties are unable to resolve the amounts under dispute, the Parties shall follow the process under Section 19 Governing Law; Dispute Resolution.

(9)Accounting Records. Patheon shall maintain accurate and complete accounting records relating to the Manufacture of Product under this CSA in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and practices consistently applied. To the extent such records are reasonably relevant to determining whether Patheon is complying with its obligations regarding price determination, Raw Material cost invoicing, Raw Material Cost [***], capital expenditure cost invoicing, Reduced Inventory Charges, and any other charges under this CSA, Tricida may audit the records or have the records audited by an independent international public accounting firm, reasonably acceptable to Patheon, in accordance with Section 10.1. For this purpose, Patheon shall retain such records for a period of no less than [***] from the date of payment of each invoice by Tricida or such longer period as required by Applicable Laws. The costs of the audit shall be borne by Tricida unless such audit finds that Patheon overcharged Tricida by [***] or more for the period audited, in which case Tricida’s out of pocket expenses incurred in connection with the audit will be borne by Patheon. Patheon shall promptly refund the amount of any overcharge and related audit charges, if applicable.

8.QUALITY AGREEMENT; CHANGES IN SPECIFICATIONS; OTHER MATTERS

a.Quality Agreement. Consistent with the definition of the Quality Agreement, the Quality Agreement will provide guidelines with regard to the quality of the Product and each Party’s responsibilities regarding quality systems practices and activities concerning the Product. Provided proposed changes in the Quality Agreement are consistent with industry standards, the Parties will not unreasonably withhold or delay its consent to execute amendments to the Quality Agreement as are reasonably requested, from time to time by the other Party. In the event that the proposed changes would result in additional direct costs, the reasonable direct costs arising in connection with the implementation of proposed changes will be borne by Tricida, unless otherwise agreed by Patheon in a signed writing. Patheon will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide an estimate of such costs prior to implementation.

b.Change in Specifications. The Specifications may be amended (i) unilaterally by Tricida if and to the extent such an amendment is reasonably required to comply with requirements set by Regulatory Authorities in one or more of the United States, European Union, Japan, and China or (ii) when mutually agreed by the Parties in a signed writing (the “Change in Specifications”). Upon receipt of a written request for Change in Specifications from Tricida, Patheon shall promptly and, in any event, within [***] (unless a longer period is agreed upon by the Parties), (i) determine the impact of the requested Change in Specifications on the Manufacturing process (including any revalidation of analytical methods), (ii) provide a timeline for their implementation, and (iii) propose an increase or decrease in the Price for Product, if applicable, incorporating the Change in Specifications.

c.Effect of Change in Specifications on Manufacturing. Upon Patheon’s receipt of a written notice from Tricida regarding any necessary Change in Specifications (e.g. mainly as required for regulatory or patient safety reasons), Patheon shall stop Manufacture and shall commence or continue to Manufacture only after receipt of Tricida’s written permission to commence or continue. Tricida shall have no obligation to accept or pay for Product Manufactured after any receipt of a notice under this Section with regard to any Change in Specifications unless Tricida provides written consent to proceed with Manufacturing prior to implementation of the respective Change in Specifications.

Tricida shall in this case (i) pay for Product manufactured up to the date of termination of the relevant [***], (ii) reimburse Patheon for the [***] in connection with the [***] of the relevant [***] calculated by multiplying the [***] by the [***] ; and (iii) reimburse Patheon for all other [***] in connection with such [***] not covered in [***]. Patheon shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate such costs.

d.Implementation of Change in Specifications. No Change in Specifications shall be implemented unless the prior approval of applicable Regulatory Authorities to the change, if required, has been obtained. The Parties will closely cooperate and use their commercially reasonable efforts to agree upon the implementation steps with respect to any Change in Specifications and, if the implementation in the Facility is technically feasible, implement the requested Change in Specifications as soon as reasonably practicable, subject always to Tricida’s prior approval on the method of implementation, timeline, and the impact on Price based upon the anticipated increase or decrease in costs and expenses of Patheon as a result of incorporating the Change in Specifications. For the purpose of clarity, the general principle shall be that Tricida shall reimburse Patheon for costs incurred in connection with the implementation of approved Change in Specification, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in a signed writing. Upon the agreement of the Parties in accordance with this Section and completion of the change control procedure per the Quality Agreement, revalidation of the manufacturing process, if required, the Change in Specifications will be incorporated into the then current Specifications and the amended Specifications shall thereafter be Specifications for all purposes under this CSA. Notwithstanding any contrary terms herein, the inability of the Parties to mutually agree upon a Price shall not be subject to the dispute resolution provisions of Section 19.2 Governing Law; Dispute Resolution.

e.Technical Dispute. If a dispute arises between the Parties whether and/or to which extent the implementation of any Change in Specifications is reasonably required to comply with the requirements set by the FDA (a “Technical Dispute”), the Parties will make commercially reasonable efforts to resolve the dispute by amicable negotiations. The Technical Dispute shall be referred to the JSC first to engage in negotiations and then the Executives of each Party will, as soon as possible and in any event no later than [***] (or other mutually agreeable period) after a written request from either Party to the other, meet in good faith to resolve any Technical Dispute. If, despite this meeting, the Parties are unable to resolve the Technical Dispute within a reasonable time, and in any event within [***]of the written request, the Technical Dispute will, at the written request of either Party, be referred for determination to an expert in the substantive technical area involved in the dispute selected by mutual agreement of the Parties (acting as an expert and not as an arbitrator).

of Product by Patheon to Tricida, and prior to their use in downstream processing Tricida or its designee may inspect (i) the integrity of the packaging of the Product and (ii) the quantity and the identity of Product received. In the event that Tricida or its designee discovers any apparent damages or discrepancy with respect to the Product received, Tricida, acting reasonably, and in good faith, may reject such Batch as Non-Conforming by written notice made of rejection to Patheon in accordance with the terms of the Quality Agreement.

(1)Non-Conforming Product Not Meeting Terms of Product Warranty. In the event that Purchaser alleges that any Product are Non-Conforming as such Product does not meet the terms of the Product Warranty (established below), such discrepancy shall be handled as a warranty claim for Defective Product under the terms of Section 9.3 Product Warranty and Section 9.4 Warranty Claims Process.

(2)Non-Conforming for Reasons Other than Failure to Meet Product Warranty. Allegations that Product is Non-Conforming for any other reason other than as set out in Section 9.1(a), shall be handled under this Section 9.1(b) after consultation between the Parties.

b.Process for Non-Conforming Product at Inspection. Within [***] of receiving any timely notice of complaint from Tricida of Non-Conforming Product under Section 9.1(b), Patheon will respond stating in writing whether (a) it accepts the complaint or (b) it disputes the complaint, in which case the Parties hereto shall consult and negotiate with each other and, recognizing their mutual interests, attempt to reach a satisfactory resolution. If the Parties do not reach such resolution within a period of [***] after Patheon’s notice disputing the complaint, the Parties shall each escalate the matter to a Vice President of their organization and thereafter if the Parties do not reach such resolution within the next [***], the Parties shall resolve such dispute pursuant to the provisions of Section 19 Governing Law; Dispute Resolution. If Patheon does not provide written notice that it disputes Tricida’s complaint within [***] of receiving timely notice from Tricida, it will be deemed to have accepted such complaint.

If Patheon agrees that the Product in such Batch are Non-Conforming Product, Patheon will consult with Tricida, and depending on Tricida’s preference either (i) [***] within a commercially reasonable timeframe, at Patheon’s expense, including [***], or (ii) promptly [***] of any [***] for that particular[***] including [***]. Where possible, any replacement Product shall be made as promptly as reasonably practicable after Patheon’s acceptance of Tricida’s complaint, in light of available manufacturing capacity and in light of Patheon’s manufacturing commitments in the Facility.

(2)Disputing Warranty Claims. If Patheon disputes the complaint, the Parties hereto shall consult and negotiate with each other and, recognizing their mutual interests, attempt to reach a satisfactory resolution. If the Parties do not reach such resolution within a period of [***] after Patheon’s notice disputing the complaint, the Parties shall each escalate the matter to a Vice President of their organization and thereafter if the Parties do not reach such resolution within the next [***], the Parties will resolve such matter by referring such dispute to a mutually acceptable independent scientific and technical expert of recognized repute within the pharmaceutical and chemical industries acceptable to both Parties to review (as an expert and not an arbitrator) the Parties’ evidence supporting their positions relating to such alleged Defective Product and the Parties will cooperate with each other to ensure that such expert has appropriate information and agreements in place to enable it to make a determination. If the

Parties are not able to agree upon an expert within such period, the expert will be selected by the American Arbitration Association. The findings of the expert shall be final and conclusively binding on the Parties, absent manifest error. Such independent Third Party expert shall arrange for the testing of the applicable Batch or run and shall determine whether such Batch or run met or did not meet the Product Warranty.

(3)Alleged Defective Product Meets Product Warranty. If it is determined by the Parties or the expert under this Section 9.4 that the rejected Product did meet the Product Warranty, Tricida shall pay for such Batch and be responsible for the cost of any Third Party expert and the independent laboratory appointed by the expert and shall reimburse Patheon for the costs of the return of samples of the Rejected Batch, as well as any other direct costs or expenses reasonably incurred by Patheon, as a result of the rejection.

(4)Alleged Defective Product Fails to Meet Product Warranty or No Objection. If Patheon fails to timely object to Tricida’s rejection in accordance with this Section 9.4, or if the Parties agree or the expert determines under this Section 9.4 that the rejected Batch did not meet the Product Warranty, then Patheon shall be responsible for the associated cost of any Third Party expert and the independent laboratory appointed by the expert and Tricida shall return the alleged Defective Product to Patheon for destruction which destruction in all cases will comply with all Applicable Laws, and Patheon shall bear all costs and expenses of the transportation and destruction of any rejected Batch and all other costs and expenses associated with the rejected Batch including the reasonable expenses incurred by Tricida in any testing or examination of the rejected Batch.

e.Remedy for Nonconformity with Product Warranty. Patheon will consult with Tricida, and upon their mutual agreement, Patheon will either (i) replace the Product from such Batch within a commercially reasonable timeframe at Patheon’s expense (including the cost of [***] and other Raw Materials and components and all transportation and freight expenses), or (ii) issue a full refund or credit of any amounts paid or payable for that particular Batch by Tricida for such Product, including amounts paid for [***]. Where possible, any replacement Product shall be made as promptly as reasonably practicable after Patheon’s acceptance of Tricida’s complaint, in light of available manufacturing capacity and in light of Patheon’s existing manufacturing commitments in the Facility.

At any time after a material adverse event (e.g., a clinical hold ordered by the FDA) that, individually or in the aggregate with all other actual changes, events and effects, materially delays or impairs, or otherwise materially adversely affects Tricida’s ability to obtain or maintain regulatory approval in the United States (“Material Adverse Event”);

2.Applicable Law or FDA Action. If the manufacture, distribution or sale of the Product or any Final Dosage Product in the United States would materially contravene any existing or new applicable law or the FDA takes any action with respect to the Product, or the manufacturing, packaging or distribution or facilities thereof (that does not constitute a breach by Patheon) which prevents Tricida from commercializing the Product or any Final Dosage Product in the United States (including if the Product is found to be defective or dangerous to human health) which cannot be brought into compliance within the period set out in the notice or applicable law or the period agreed to by Tricida and the FDA (or if none is so provided, then within a ninety (90) day period of time following the notice of non-compliance or violation), by providing prompt Notice of termination, with the effective date of termination to be the date on which such Notice is given;

3.Failure to Obtain Regulatory Approval. If Tricida does not obtain Regulatory Approval of the Product by [***] and provides Notice of termination to Patheon within [***] from such date;

4.Termination of Commercialization. If Tricida finally and irrevocably terminates its commercialization of the Product or any Final Dosage Product in the United States at any time or fails to launch the Product or any Final Dosage Product in the United States by March 31, 2022, then Tricida may terminate this CSA by providing notice within thirty (30) days of such decision. For the purpose of clarity, the Parties agree and understand that any sale, licensing or other transfer of Tricida’s rights in the Product or Final Dosage Product or the licensing of the right to market the Product or Final Dosage Product in the United States shall not constitute an abandonment of the commercialization of the Product; or

(i)Termination as Provided for Under Xxxxxxx 00 Xxxxx Xxxxxxx. Each Party shall have the rights of termination as provided for under Section 16 Force Majeure.

d.Consequences of Termination.

(1)Termination for Breach by Patheon. If Tricida terminates this CSA for a Material Breach as provided for in Section 11.3(a), then Patheon shall [***]. The table set forth below under this Section 11.4(a) sets forth the applicable percentages. A termination that occurs in accordance with the terms of Section 11.3(a) shall otherwise be without penalty or cancellation charges; provided, however that Tricida shall remain liable for any amounts that had accrued with respect to fulfilled Orders and work in progress up to termination. Patheon will deliver any [***] in inventory to a location designated by Tricida, and upon shipment Patheon will submit an invoice for properly Released [***] to Tricida for reimbursement of the actual cost paid by Patheon (net of any payment for such [***] previously made by Tricida) for such [***], if not already invoiced.

Furthermore, Tricida shall (i) pay Patheon the Price for the quantities in Firm Orders for Product filled through termination and (ii) reimburse Patheon for [***] (as defined below) multiplied by the quantity of [***] in all [***] as of the effective date of termination and (iii) reimburse Patheon for the [***] multiplied by the [***] reflected in [***] of the [***] under Section 5.2 that are not yet part of a [***].

Tricida also agrees [***] which arise as a result of [***]. Patheon will use [***]. For the avoidance of doubt, [***] shall exclude [***] to the extent [***] has [***] for its [***] in the [***] upon the expiration of the [***] or [***] pursuant to Section [***].

For the purpose of clarity, the Parties acknowledge and agree that Tricida shall have no obligation to reimburse Patheon for the portion of the [***] that has not yet been depreciated under any termination event that is not referenced in this Subsection (b).

(c) [***] Costs. Furthermore, if Tricida terminates this CSA as provided under Section 11.3(b) or if Patheon terminates this CSA for Breach by Tricida under Section 11.3(a), Tricida shall pay to Patheon the [***] Costs. “[***] Costs” means the [***] incurred by Patheon to [***] and [***] based on the [***].

(d) Return of Proprietary Information. Upon expiration or earlier termination of this CSA, each Party shall, upon the request of the other Party, return to such Party, or destroy and certify in writing to the destruction of, all of such Party’s Proprietary Information in its possession or under its control; provided, however, that a Party may retain copies of the other Party’s Proprietary Information as required for regulatory purposes and/or to demonstrate compliance with the terms of this CSA.

(e) Other Accrued Liabilities. The liability of a Party arising from a termination event shall be limited to the amounts provided under this Section 11.4; provided, however, that termination of this CSA will not affect any rights of either Party that have accrued as of the date of termination. To the extent either Party’s has an obligation under this Section but such obligations under this Section are not fully performed as of the effective date of expiration or termination of this CSA, the terms of this CSA applicable to such obligations shall continue in effect until such obligations are performed in full.

9.CONFIDENTIALITY

a.Proprietary Information. Each of Patheon and Tricida (including their Representatives (defined below)) agrees to keep confidential any and all confidential and/or proprietary information and materials, in verbal, written, graphic, electronic, photographic, recorded, prototype or sample form either generated by a Party or otherwise disclosed hereunder or through any prior disclosure by one Party to the other Party and/or its Affiliates in connection

with this CSA, including but not limited to scientific, technical, financial, trade or business information formulations, methods, processes, chemical structures, technology base, proprietary position, know-how, pricing and financial information, marketing plans, audit findings, inspection results and validation testing, business strategies in connection with or concerning Tricida and its projects and all disease areas, therapeutic targets, mechanisms, processes, compositions of matter, and experimental results therewith (“Proprietary Information”). The confidential information disclosed by Patheon under this CSA is described as and includes its interest in Tricida projects, and technical and business information disclosed to Tricida and its Representatives. The discussions and the terms of this CSA are the Proprietary Information of both Parties. All discussions between members of the JSC and SMT shall be deemed to be Proprietary Information. A Party’s failure to xxxx information as confidential or with a similar designation or to reduce such oral information to writing shall not disqualify such information from being Proprietary Information to the extent a reasonable person would in good faith consider such orally disclosed information to be proprietary and/or confidential.

b.Uses; Disclosures. The receiving party shall use the Proprietary Information solely for the purpose of carrying out its rights and obligations contained in this CSA and any rights and obligations under any existing SOW, as needed. The receiving party agrees not to disclose such Proprietary Information to any person or entity, except to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ employees, directors, officers, agents, contractors, and/or designees having a need to know the information in order to fulfill such Party’s obligations hereunder and who are under confidentiality and non-use obligations at least as restrictive as those contained herein (each a “Representative”). Each Party agrees to be responsible for any breach of this Section by any of its Representatives and primarily liable for the compliance of its Representatives with the terms of this CSA. A receiving party shall use at least the same degree of care that it uses to safeguard and maintain the confidentiality of its own proprietary information, which in no event shall be less than a reasonable degree of care. For purposes of this Section, disclosure of Proprietary Information by Affiliates or Representatives of a Party shall be deemed to be disclosure made by that Party. Furthermore a receiving party agrees not to analyze or have a Third Party analyze any tangible products or materials constituting Proprietary Information for chemical composition or content without prior written authorization from the disclosing Party. For purposes of this Section, if a Party makes a request in writing for disclosure (“Requesting Party” and a “Request” respectively) that the other Party share the Requesting Party’s Proprietary Information with a Third Party that is not a Representative of the Party receiving the written request (a “Third Party Recipient”), the Party receiving such Request may treat such Request as consent for the disclosure of such information in accordance with the Request terms and the Requesting Party shall be responsible for taking any actions necessary to make the Third Party Recipient its Representative under confidentiality obligations or a party to a confidentiality agreement to protect the confidentiality of such information being disclosed and the Party receiving the Request shall be deemed not to be in breach of this Section if the disclosure is made in accordance with the Request. The terms of this CSA may be disclosed by Tricida, acting in good faith, to prospective collaboration partners in connection with due diligence requests and for similar purposes; provided, however, that the prospective collaboration partners agree to keep the terms of this CSA confidential on terms similar to those contained in this Section.

c.Exclusions. The obligations imposed by this Section shall not apply to any Proprietary Information which the receiving party can prove by contemporaneous evidence:

(1)at the time of disclosure is in the public domain;

(2)after disclosure becomes part of the public domain by publication or otherwise, through no fault of the receiving party;

(3)at the time of disclosure is already in the receiving party’s possession and was not made available to the receiving party by anyone owing an obligation of confidentiality or nonuse to the disclosing party;

(4)is rightfully made available to the receiving party from sources independent of the disclosing party; or

(5)is independently developed by the receiving party without reference to or any other use of any Proprietary Information;

(6)is legally required to be disclosed in the course of litigation or other legal or administrative proceedings or otherwise as required by law (including the rules and regulations of any national stock exchange on which such Party’s securities are or may be traded); provided that, in all cases, the Party receiving the Proprietary Information shall, to the extent permitted, give the other Party prompt notice of the pending disclosure and shall reasonably cooperate in such other Party’s attempts, at such other Party’s sole expense, to seek an opportunity to intercede to oppose, limit or condition such disclosure prior to the receiving Party making any disclosure. If the disclosing party is not successful in opposing such process, the receiving party may disclose Proprietary Information of the disclosing party to the extent required by law or regulation; provided, however, that prior to making any such legally required disclosure, the receiving party shall give the disclosing party as much prior notice of the requirement for and contents of such disclosure as is practicable under the circumstances.

d.Publicity. Neither Party shall originate any publicity, news release, or other announcement regarding this CSA or the relationship or activities of the Parties thereunder, written or oral, whether to the public press, the trade, its customers, or the other Party’s customers without the prior written approval of the other Party, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or condition; provided, however, that any Party may make any public disclosure that it believes in good faith to be required by Applicable Laws or any listing or trading agreement concerning securities to be publicly traded without the need for prior disclosure (in which case the Party making the public disclosure will use commercially reasonable efforts to advise the other Party before making the disclosure).

e.Period of Confidentiality. The obligation of confidentiality and nonuse set forth in this Section shall survive for a period of [***] beyond the termination or expiration of this CSA.

f.No License. Each Party hereby retains its entire right, title and interest, including all Intellectual Property rights, in and to all of its Proprietary Information, including its Background Information. No assignment, grant, option, license or other transfer of any right, title or interest whatsoever is granted in the Proprietary Information other than the limited right to use Proprietary Information as set out in this Section or any license or other rights provided in Section 12 Intellectual Property. A disclosing party grants no rights or licenses, including

without limitation Intellectual Property rights (such as trademarks, inventions, copyrights, or patents), to a receiving party under this CSA, and the disclosure of Proprietary Information to a receiving party by a disclosing party shall not result in any obligation to grant any such rights or licenses.

g.Relief; Injunctive Relief. In the event that a Party has knowledge of any breach of this Section 14, the Party shall promptly give notice thereof to the other Party. Each Party, as a potential receiving party, acknowledges that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for the disclosing party in the event of any breach of this CSA and that disclosing party is entitled to seek specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy for any such breach, and the receiving party further agrees to waive any requirement for the posting of any bond in connection with any such remedy. Any such remedy will not be deemed to be the exclusive remedy for breach of this CSA but shall be in addition to all other remedies available at law or equity to the disclosing party.

h.Return/Destruction of Information. Upon expiration or earlier termination of this CSA, each Party shall, upon the request of the other Party, return to such Party, or destroy and certify in writing to the destruction of, all of such Party’s Proprietary Information in its possession or under its control; provided, however, that a Party may retain one copy of the other Party’s Proprietary Information as required for regulatory purposes and/or to demonstrate compliance with the terms of this CSA.

i.Existing Confidentiality Agreements. The Parties hereto acknowledge that other confidentiality agreements may have been entered into prior to the Effective Date of this CSA and that such agreements shall remain in full force and effect and with respect to the [***] SOWs shall continue to apply with respect to any period prior to the Effective Date of this CSA.

In no event shall the Indemnitor or Indemnitee compromise or settle any such matter without the prior written consent of the other Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed and in no event shall a Party be bound by any compromise or settlement that was made absent its prior written consent. The Indemnitee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to be represented by counsel of its own selection and at its own cost and expense.

The Parties agree that delivery of an executed counterpart signature hereof by facsimile transmission, by electronic mail in “portable document format” form, or by any other electronic means intended to preserve the original graphic and pictorial appearance of a document, will have the same effect as physical delivery of the paper document bearing the original signature.

If the Parties do not reach such resolution within a period of [***], then, upon Notice by one Party to the other, any unresolved dispute or claim shall be finally resolved by submission to final and binding arbitration, and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.

The arbitration will be conducted in the English language. Within [***] of the Notice to arbitrate, the Parties shall mutually agree upon a single arbitrator, with reasonable experience in the pharmaceutical drug substance and chemical manufacturing business. If the Parties are unable to agree upon a single arbitrator with such experience, then within [***] thereafter, each Party shall select an arbitrator with reasonable experience in the pharmaceutical drug substance and chemical manufacturing business. The two (2) selected arbitrators shall then promptly select a third arbitrator with reasonable experience in the pharmaceutical drug substance and chemical manufacturing business. If the two (2) selected arbitrators are unable to agree upon the third arbitrator, the third arbitrator shall appointed by American Arbitration Association pursuant to the AAA Rules.

Each Party shall bear its own attorneys’ fees and associated costs and expenses. The Parties shall share equally the costs of the arbitrator(s). Nothing in this Section shall serve to limit or impair a Party’s right(s) to equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction (without the posting of bond) or to enforce any decision in any court of competent jurisdiction. The award of the arbitrators shall be accompanied by a statement of the reasons upon which the award is based, shall be the final binding disposition on the merits, and shall not be appealable to any court in any jurisdiction.

Exhibit E

Pricing

1. Price Determination

The Prices for the [***] are set forth in the corresponding SOW for the [***]. Unless otherwise set forth in this Exhibit E or the CSA the [***], excluding [***] costs (“Pricing”), for Firm Order quantities up to [***] is as follows in Table A:

TABLE A


Firm Order Quantities [***]			[*] excluding [] [€/kg] [**]

[***]			[***]
[***]			[***]
[***]			[***]
[***]			[***]

*Quantities and Prices above [***] may require additional Major Improvements beyond the [***] and [***] included in this CSA.

For Supply Years beginning with Supply Year [***], the Price for Product shall be the [***] set forth below in Table 1 below, subject to [***] following the [***] and [***] relative to the [***] as further described in this Exhibit E.

For the sake of clarity the [***] for the Supply Year [***] does not include the [***] for the execution of [***] and the associated costs will be set forth in a separate SOW. By [***], the Parties shall agree upon the [***] in good faith.

For Supply Year [***], the [***] will be calculated based upon the [***] of the [***] quantities that utilize the [***] contemplated in the [***] and the [***] as specified in Exhibit F.

For [***] and thereafter, the Price will be the [***] as reflected in Table 1, the Manufacturing Costs will be [***] following the [***] described below, and further [***]. In the event the [***] has not been [***] to the [***], the [***] component of the [***] will be [***] relative to the [***] component of the [***] reflected in Table 1 for the corresponding quantity until the [***] is implemented.

The [***] is composed of three components: (i) [***] associated with [***] portion of the [***] (i.e. [***] which are currently capped at [***]), (ii) [***] (which are treated as [***] costs for the purposes of price calculation) and (iii) [***] component as mentioned in Table 1. As further

described in this Exhibit E and in the CSA, the Price for Product in a given Supply Year beginning with the [***] Supply Year may deviate from the [***] as a consequence of [***]. For clarity, the costs of the [***] are not included in Table A or Table 1 and will be [***] as set forth in the CSA.

[***]

For product Volumes [***] a [***] of the [***] shall be applied. [***] and [***] related to the relevant product volumes shall be [***] in order to [***].

2. Manufacturing Cost Component Indexation:

The costs set forth in Table 1 are built based on [***]. For the calculation of the [***] applicable in a given [***], [***] of the [***] will follow the [***] as described below:

Starting in [***], and for each calendar year thereafter, the [***] shall be [***] in the [***] of the applicable calendar year either [***] based on [***]; provided however, no such [***] shall ever result in the [***] of more than [***] in the [***] in any [***]. The Parties shall review and confirm the [***] by the last business day of [***] and such [***] will be applied to the [***] for the immediately following Supply Year.

The [***] (after applying the [***]) shall be valid for future [***] only, and not for any [***] which are in progress upon [***] at the last business day of [***] each calendar year.

For clarity, no [***] shall be applied to the prices for the [***].

In Table 1, Raw Materials are assumed to be [***] and the [***] costs ([***] per kg) are assumed to be [***] per year (divided by the applicable Firm Order quantity) and the Manufacturing Cost is the remainder of [***].

3. [***] Cost Component of the [***]

The [***] set forth in Table A is based upon a [***] (i.e. [***] net of [***]) is [***], and includes a [***] cost of [***] of the [***] applied to the Firm Order quantity for the applicable Supply Year. In case the actual final [***] deviates from this range, then the [***] costs as per Table 1 will have to be amended accordingly based on the final actual [***] amount divided by the respective Firm Order quantity. Likewise, in the event Tricida exercises its option under the CSA to fund [***] of the [***], the [***] costs will also be amended accordingly. For example, if the [***] and the Firm Order quantity for a given Supply Year is [***], the annual [***] cost over the [***]-year period will be [***] per year resulting in a [***] cost of [***] per kg for such Supply Year; for clarity, after [***], the [***] cost component will be [***].

It is agreed between the Parties that a [***] of the [***] over [***] up to [***] will be [***]. In such a case the [***] of the [***] will not be considered, and the [***] (i.e. the [***]) will be [***] to the [***]. Any [***] beyond the [***] will be [***] by [***] and not considered in the [***].

4. Price Effect of Changes in [***]

In order to reflect the [***] actually achieved during the [***] and each [***] thereafter, the Manufacturing Cost component of the [***] as per Table 1 as applicable will be multiplied with the factors set forth in Table 2 (“[***]”).

Patheon acknowledges and agrees that in the [***] and thereafter for purposes of the Price calculation, the maximum [***] are set at [***] for [***] and [***] for TRC101, even if the [***] actually achieved by [***] shall be [***].

Table 2 - [***] factors at a [***] size of [***] of TRC101:

[***]

5. Price Effect of [***]

Table 3 (“[***]”) defines [***] in case of using a [***] of [***] for [***]. In this case, the [***] of the [***] as per [***] is to be multiplied with the factors set forth in [***] instead of the factors set forth in [***].

In case of using [***] for [***] between [***] (as assumed in [***]) and [***] (as assumed in [***]) a [***] of the relevant [***] used in [***] has to be [***], and the factors so calculated shall be [***] with the [***] of the [***].
