ARTICLE 8
MANUFACTURE AND SUPPLY
8.1 Process Development, Manufacturing Approvals of C2B8. IDEC shall be responsible for, at its own expense, process development, scale-up, validation and FDA licensure of its existing C2B8-producing CHO cell line to the 2,750 liter fermenter scale. As soon as practicable after the Original Effective Date, IDEC will transfer to Genentech a re-amplified CHO C2B8-producing cell line, and, within 30 days of the Original Effective Date, transfer the technology to be licensed to Genentech under the terms and conditions of the Expression Technology License of even date herewith, and provide reasonable training of Genentech personnel as requested by Genentech necessary to allow Genentech to scale up C2B8 process with the re-amplified cell line. Immediately after receipt of IDEC’s re-amplified CHO C2B8 producing cell line by Genentech, Genentech will begin work, at its own expense, on the scale-up of a re-amplified cell line in optimal growth media to produce C2B8 at commercial scale. If Genentech determines that such scale up is not commercially feasible, it will so notify the JDC. Upon the decision of the JDC to go forward, Genentech will, at its own expense, attempt to scale
22
CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT
up another cell line selected by the JDC or the cell line used for 2,750 liter fermenter scale production. If Genentech has successfully scaled up a cell line to its commercial scale and IDEC is then manufacturing C2B8, Genentech will, at its own expense, transfer the optimized cell line and information sufficient to allow IDEC to manufacture C2B8 by essentially the same process used by Genentech except for the size of the fermentation vessel. If bridging or any other studies are required to permit the use or sale of C2B8 produced by Genentech by the optimized process, the costs of such clinical studies shall be paid by Genentech, but shall be charged against Operating Profits over the first three years after the first commercial sale of C2B8 produced by the optimized process. IDEC will otherwise be responsible, at its own expense, for all expenses incurred in obtaining Regulatory Approvals for the manufacturing process used to produce C2B8, except that Genentech, at its own expense, will pay the expenses incurred to receive FDA licensure of Genentech facilities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8.1, costs incurred by either Party under this Section 8.1 after Regulatory Approval in the United States shall be charged to Operating Profits.
8.2 Manufacture and Supply of C2B8. IDEC shall, pursuant to a Supply Agreement to be entered into between the Parties prior to the date of the first submission of an application or registration for Regulatory Approval, supply all requirements for C2B8 in final vial form for commercial sale in all territories for the first two years after the first Regulatory Approval in the United States or Europe, whichever comes earlier (the “Initial Commercial Period”). The average annual Cost of Goods Sold of C2B8 packaged in final vial form during the Initial Commercial Period shall be the lower of (i) [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] or (ii) [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]. IDEC may continue to supply, at its option, commercial requirements for C2B8 up to the capacity of its current manufacturing plant [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] in San Diego (the “Supply Option”). The Supply Option shall be exercised, if at all, by written notice on or before the date of the first Regulatory Approval including a good faith estimate of IDEC’s planned production levels. If the parties determine that the FDA will not grant establishment licenses to two manufacturing facilities using different scales of production, then the parties will use best efforts to develop a manufacturing capacity plan by the first Regulatory Approval. Subsequent to the Initial Commercial Period, if both Parties are manufacturing Licensed Product at the same time, the Cost of Goods Sold for both Parties used for calculation of Operating Profits shall be the lower of Genentech’s or IDEC’s actual cost of Goods Sold for commercial production of C2B8 packaged in final vial form. After the Initial Commercial Period, Genentech shall manufacture all requirements of C2B8 for commercial sale in excess of that which IDEC has agreed to produce.
8.3 Transfer of Materials and Know-how for C2B8.
(a) IDEC shall on Genentech’s request at any time transfer to, and fully enable Genentech with, the then most current version of all biological materials, know-how, reagents and expertise necessary for Genentech to undertake the manufacture of C2B8. IDEC shall periodically update biological materials and information related to C2B8 previously transferred to Genentech. All transfers of materials and information to Genentech shall be free of charge to Genentech; provided, however, IDEC’s obligation to train Genentech personnel in the use of such material and information shall be limited to [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] person hours.
23
CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT
(b) At the time Genentech completes the commercialization scale-up described in Section 8.1, if IDEC continues to manufacture commercial quantities of C2B8, Genentech will transfer to, and fully enable IDEC with, the then most current version of all biological materials, know-how, reagents and expertise applicable to the actual manufacturing process in use by IDEC necessary for IDEC to undertake the manufacture of C2B8 provided that IDEC uses such biological materials, know-how, reagents and expertise solely to manufacture C2B8. Genentech’s obligation to train IDEC personnel in the use of such materials or information shall be limited to [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] person hours.
(c) IDEC agrees to allow Genentech to audit, at its expense, any Regulatory Approval documentation in the possession of IDEC concerning products other than the Licensed Products to determine if such products utilize Genentech Patents or Genentech Know-how. Such audit(s) shall be conducted by an independent party to be mutually agreed upon by Genentech and IDEC, and shall be limited to one audit during any twelve month period.
8.4 Transfer Price of Products for C2B8. The transfer price for C2B8 supplied to Genentech for sale in the Licensed Territory will be [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]. IDEC will invoice Genentech within 10 days after each shipment of C2B8 to the Licensed Territory on a shipment by shipment basis. Genentech shall pay each invoice within thirty (30) days of receipt of both of C2B8 and invoice.
8.5 Manufacture of C2B8 for Clinical Trials.
(a) IDEC will supply at no cost all quantities of C2B8 for pre-clinical studies and clinical trials in the Co-Promotion Territory directed toward obtaining the first Regulatory Approval in the Co-Promotion Territory.

8.6 Manufacture and Supply of Franchise Products (other than C2B8). Genentech shall be responsible, and have complete decision making control for all process development, scale-up, validation and FDA licensure for the manufacture of all Franchise Products (other than C2B8) in the Co-Promotion Territory, the cost of which shall be considered Development Costs pursuant to this Agreement. In addition, Genentech, either itself or through a third party manufacturer, shall be responsible for the manufacture and supply of clinical and commercial supply of New Products for the Co-Promotion Territory (Genentech shall use commercially reasonable and diligent efforts to maintain a reasonable Cost of Goods Sold for manufacture and supply of all Franchise Products).
8.7 Right of First Negotiation for Manufacture and Supply of Franchise Products in the Co-Promotion Territory. In the event Genentech decides to seek a Third Party (other than X. Xxxxxxxx La Xxxxx XX) to manufacture and supply a particular Franchise Product in the Co-Promotion Territory, Genentech shall promptly notify IDEC in writing. IDEC
24
CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT
