ARTICLE 2

SCOPE

2.1 Definition of Scope. Catalent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to perform the Services in accordance with the specific terms set forth in a SOW. Each SOW shall clearly define the Services, Materials, Vaccinex-supplied Materials, Expression Product, Drug Substance and Drug Product, and the responsibilities of the parties with respect to the project work. Each SOW will include, as appropriate, a specific description of (A) the Services to be performed by Catalent, (B) the total budgeted amount, including fees, labor rates, and estimated reimbursable expenses applicable to such Services, (C) the timelines and schedules for the performance of such Services, (D) the deliverables that Catalent shall be obligated to deliver to Vaccinex, and (E) such other matters as may be appropriate. Each SOW shall be sequentially numbered as Exhibit Al, Exhibit A2, etc., and, when executed by both parties, shall be deemed incorporated by this reference into this Agreement and shall form a part of Exhibit A to this Agreement. Each SOW shall be subject to, and shall incorporate by reference, all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. To the extent any terms or conditions of a SOW conflict with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control, except to the extent that the applicable SOW expressly and specifically states an intent to supersede this Agreement on a specific matter. This Agreement shall supersede the terms of any purchase order, acknowledgement or delivery document. This Agreement shall not impair or affect the terms of any other development, license, manufacturing or packaging agreement between Vaccinex and Catalent or their respective Affiliates.

2.2 Amendments to Scope/Change Orders. Any material change in the details of a SOW or the assumptions upon which the SOW is based (including, but not limited to, postponement of the agreed starting date for Services or suspension of Services by Vaccinex) may require changes in the pricing and time lines, and shall require a written amendment to the SOW (a “Change Order”). Each Change Order shall detail the requested changes to the applicable task, responsibility, duty, pricing, time line or other matter. The Change Order will become effective upon the execution of the Change Order by both parties, and Catalent will be given a reasonable period of time within which to implement the changes. Both parties shall act in good faith and promptly when considering a Change Order requested by the other party. Without limiting the foregoing, Vaccinex shall not unreasonably withhold approval of a Change Order if the proposed changes in pricing or time lines result from, among other appropriate reasons, forces outside the reasonable control of Catalent and are commercially reasonable or changes in the

assumptions upon which the initial pricing or time lines were based. Catalent shall not be obligated to perform any modified or additional Services until a Change Order has been executed by the parties with respect to such Services.

2.3 Vaccinex Responsibilities. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing or in the SOW, Vaccinex agrees that it will (A) provide complete and accurate scientific data regarding each project described in a SOW and its requirements for such project, including test methods and development, formulation, fill and finish of the Drug Product if applicable, (B) provide Catalent with complete and accurate information necessary to develop the SOW, including scope of work and estimated or fixed costs, (C) review and approve all specifications for work or Drug Product, (D) if applicable, review and approve all in-process and finished Drug Product test results to ensure conformity of such results with the agreed Drug Product specifications, regardless of which party is responsible for finished Drug Product release, and (E) if applicable, prepare all submissions to Regulatory Authorities in connection with the Drug Product.

2.4 Catalent Responsibilities. Catalent shall perform all Services: (A) in a reasonable manner consistent with the professional standards generally applicable to such Services; (B) in compliance with all Applicable Laws; and (C) in compliance with all reasonable written directions and requests of Vaccinex, so long as such direction and requests do not conflict with and violate any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, any of Catalent’s SOPs (subject to Section 2.5) or any Applicable Law. In the event of a conflict between or among any of the standards set forth in this Section 2.4, Catalent shall be required to comply with the most stringent standard which is permitted by Applicable Law. Except for (i) any Vaccinex-supplied Materials, (ii) items that are Vaccinex’s responsibility pursuant to Section 3.1(C), or (iii) as otherwise specified under this Agreement or the applicable SOW, Catalent shall at its cost and expense purchase all materials and components necessary to perform the Services and provide all necessary personnel, facilities and equipment required to perform the Services.

2.5 Standard Operating Procedures. Catalent’s standard operating procedures (“SOPs”) used by Catalent in performing Services under any particular SOW shall be in compliance with all Applicable Laws. Prior to the execution of each SOW, and subject to the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement, Catalent shall make available to Vaccinex for review only via protected electronic means one confidential, restricted copy of Catalent’s SOPs, if any, which are applicable to the Services described in such SOW. Vaccinex may, from time to time in respect of a particular SOW, request the use of certain designated Vaccinex SOPs or request the use of a combination of Catalent SOPs and Vaccinex SOPs. Any such request by Vaccinex shall be set forth in writing and shall include a proposed transition period and/or effective date for implementation. If Catalent agrees to such request, an appropriate letter agreement shall be signed by both parties, after which Catalent shall promptly implement such modified SOPs as set forth therein. For the avoidance of doubt, the first sentence of this Section 2.5 shall not apply to any such modified SOPs.

2.6 Subcontractors. Catalent shall not subcontract to its Affiliates or to Third Parties (in such capacity, “Subcontractors”) any Services that Catalent is obligated to perform under this Agreement without, in each case, Vaccinex’s prior written approval, in its reasonable discretion. If Catalent proposes use of Subcontractors for particular laboratory services or other Services, Vaccinex may require and Catalent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure Vaccinex has access to such Subcontractors for audit purposes. If Vaccinex preapproves a Subcontractor in writing, (1) Catalent shall enter into an agreement with such Subcontractor that contains confidentiality terms at least as strict as those set forth

herein, as well as any other terms necessary to ensure that Catalent meets its obligations under this Agreement, and (2) no such subcontracting by Catalent shall relieve Catalent of and Catalent shall remain primarily liable for its obligations under this Agreement; provided, that Catalent shall not be liable for any defects in the work product of any Subcontractors who are not Affiliates. For the avoidance of doubt, any Subcontractors named in an SOW signed by Vaccinex shall be deemed approved by Vaccinex for purposes of this Section 2.6.

2.7 Project Managers. Each party shall designate one project manager for each SOW, who shall be responsible for providing decisions relating to such SOW, as well as communicating to each other technical and operational issues regarding the Services.

2.8 Vaccinex-supplied Material. Except as expressly set forth in a SOW, Vaccinex will provide all samples, reference materials, components, raw materials, Materials and Drug Product, as applicable, required for each SOW. Within [***] of receipt of Vaccinex-supplied Materials by Catalent, Catalent shall inspect such items to verify their identity. Unless otherwise expressly required by the Specifications, Catalent shall have no obligation to test such items to confirm that they meet the associated specifications or certificate of analysis or otherwise; but in the event that Catalent detects a nonconformity with applicable specifications, Catalent shall give Vaccinex prompt oral and written notice of such nonconformity. Catalent shall not be liable for any defects in Vaccinex-supplied Materials, or in Services, Expression Product, Drug Substance or Drug Product that result from defective Vaccinex-supplied Materials, unless Catalent failed to properly perform the foregoing obligations. Catalent shall follow Vaccinex’s reasonable written instructions in respect of return or disposal of defective Vaccinex-supplied Materials, at Vaccinex’s sole cost and risk. Vaccinex shall retain title to Vaccinex-supplied Materials at all times and shall bear the risk of loss thereof.

2.9 Error. In the event of a material error by Catalent in performing any Services, including but not limited to any process contamination, Vaccinex shall have the option, at its reasonable discretion, to either have Catalent repeat the relevant Services at Catalent’s own cost (i.e., Vaccinex shall pay in full for either the erroneous Services or the repeated Services, but not both) or receive a full credit for fees paid (and cancel any fees payable) for the relevant Services. In the event that Vaccinex elects to have Catalent repeat the Services, Vaccinex shall supply, [***], Catalent with sufficient quantities of Vaccinex- supplied Materials in order for Catalent to complete such re-performance.

2.10 Delivery. Catalent shall tender all Expression Product, Drug Substance, Drug Product, raw materials and components, samples, and other deliverables to be delivered pursuant to a SOW or this Agreement for delivery EXW (Incoterms 2000) the Facility. Title to such items shall transfer upon tender of delivery.

2.11 Failure to Take Delivery. If Vaccinex fails to take delivery of any Expression Product, Drug Substance, Drug Product, raw materials, components or other deliverables on any scheduled delivery date, Catalent shall store such items as Vaccinex’s agent, and Vaccinex shall be invoiced for the stored items and invoiced on a [***] basis thereafter for reasonable administration and storage costs. Vaccinex agrees that: (A) Vaccinex has made a fixed commitment to accept and pay for, if applicable, such items; (B) title and risk of ownership for such items passes to Vaccinex upon the scheduled delivery date or transfer to storage, whichever is earlier; (C) such items shall be on a xxxx and hold basis for legitimate business purposes; (D) if no delivery date is determined at the time of billing, Catalent shall have the right to ship such items to Vaccinex within [***] after billing; and (E) Vaccinex will be responsible for any

decrease in market value of such items. Within [***] following a written request from Catalent, Vaccinex shall provide Catalent with a letter confirming items (A) through (E) of this Article in respect of a given undelivered item.

2.12 Samples and Excess Materials.

A. Catalent shall deliver to Vaccinex or its designee samples of all batches of Drug Substance or Drug Product upon quality release by Catalent and otherwise in accordance with the Quality Agreement. Catalent shall also provide the related consolidated batch record (“Batch Record”) and any other batch documentation required to be provided by the Quality Agreement for each batch as soon as reasonably possible after each such batch is released and otherwise in accordance with the Quality Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, Vaccinex’s acceptance and/or rejection of Drug Substance and Drug Product shall governed by Article 4.

B. Following completion of each relevant phase of a SOW, retained samples will be stored at the Facility in accordance with Applicable Laws. After the expiration of any minimum hold periods required by Applicable Laws or specified in the SOPs or SOW if longer, Catalent will dispose of samples, at Vaccinex’s cost, unless prior written instructions have been provided by Vaccinex for returning samples to Vaccinex at Vaccinex’s cost. Within [***] following the termination of an SOW, Catalent will return all unused Vaccinex-supplied Materials associated with such SOW to Vaccinex at Vaccinex’s cost, unless prior written instructions have been provided by Vaccinex for reallocating such materials to another SOW or disposing of such materials at Vaccinex’s cost. Catalent will store any GPEx Cell Lines [***] during the term of the applicable SOW and for [***] thereafter, or until [***]. Following notification to Vaccinex in accordance with Article 13, Catalent shall destroy all GPEx Cell Lines upon expiration of such period, at Vaccinex’s cost, unless Vaccinex shall have entered into a separate written agreement with Catalent for long-term storage at Catalent’s then current rates.

In the event that any Regulatory Authority shall determine, as a result of an inspection, and advise Catalent in writing that Catalent is not in compliance with Applicable Laws or otherwise not in compliance with cGMP (if applicable) with respect to the manufacture of Drug Substance or Drug Product or performance of Services, Catalent shall at its expense use all reasonable efforts to dispute or cure such non-compliance as soon as practicable; provided, that if Catalent elects in its sole discretion not to dispute such finding or take such curative measures, Catalent shall promptly notify Vaccinex of such decision, whereupon Vaccinex shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Catalent given within [***] of Vaccinex’s receipt of Catalent’s decision notice.

5.3 Record Retention. Unless the parties otherwise agree in writing, Catalent shall maintain materially complete and accurate batch, laboratory and other technical records related to Drug Substance and Drug Products for the minimum period required by Applicable Laws, in accordance with Catalent standard operating procedures.

5.4 Quality Agreement. The parties have entered into a Quality Agreement attached hereto as Attachment B. If determined necessary by Catalent, the parties shall enter into separate Quality Agreements for different Facilities. The Parties shall review the Quality Agreement at least annually and shall revise it or make any necessary amendments thereto as may be agreed. Such amendments or revisions shall become effective, and considered a part of this Agreement, upon execution by all of the Parties. In the event of a conflict between any of the provisions of this Agreement and the Quality Agreement with respect to quality-related activities, including compliance with cGMP, the provisions of the Quality Agreement shall govern. In the event of a conflict between any of the provisions of this Agreement and the Quality Agreement with respect to any commercial matters, including allocation of risk, liability and financial responsibility, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern.

5.5 Regulatory Compliance. Vaccinex shall be solely responsible for and will obtain all permits and licenses required by any Regulatory Authority with respect to the Drug Substance or Drug Product and the Services under this Agreement, including any product licenses, applications and amendments in connection therewith. Catalent will be responsible to maintain all permits and licenses required by any Regulatory Authorities in the United States with respect to the Facility generally. During the Term, Catalent will assist Vaccinex with all regulatory matters relating to Services under this Agreement, at Vaccinex’s request and at Vaccinex’s expense. Each party intends and commits to cooperate to satisfy all Applicable Laws relating to Services under this Agreement

5.6 Waiver of In Process Quality Control Holds. Project scheduling may include certain FDA “Points to Consider” (PTC) assays and other in-process assays, as set forth in a SOW. PTC and in-process

assays are typically required in “quality control (QC) holds” and may prevent a SOW from progressing to subsequent scheduled events until the results of these PTC and in-process assays are completed, documented and audited by the appropriate QC group. In the event that Vaccinex wishes to expedite a SOW by proceeding to subsequent project events without waiting for PTC and/or assay results (“QC Hold Waiver”), Vaccinex shall be fully responsible for the cost of all Services performed after the QC Hold Waiver even if the results of the PTC and/or other in-process tests indicate a problem with the project, Drug Substance or Drug Product, provided that such problem was not caused by Catalent’s gross negligence or more culpable act or omission. Catalent shall remain responsible for activities up to the QC Hold Waiver to the extent provided in this Agreement.

5.7 Compliance with Laws. Catalent and Vaccinex shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates (to the extent any such Affiliate is performing any of a party’s obligations hereunder) to, comply with all Applicable Laws in all material respects. Catalent and Vaccinex allocate responsibility for complying with the cGMP (if applicable) between themselves as set forth in the Quality Agreement. Each party shall provide the other with all reasonable assistance and take all actions reasonably requested by the other to enable the requesting party to comply with any Applicable Law relating to the performance by a party of its obligations hereunder.

For each Production Cell Line, within [***] of Vaccinex’s written request, Catalent shall grant Vaccinex (or its designee, subject to the last sentence of this Section 7.5(A)) access to, and deliver to Vaccinex, a research cell bank relating to such Production Cell Line solely for non-cGMP use and/or internal evaluation use by Vaccinex or its Affiliates (each, a “Research License”). The [***] of such Research License shall be at [***] to Vaccinex, and thereafter, Vaccinex shall pay in advance an [***] license fee in consideration of each Research License equal to $[***], payable upon the [***] and thereafter upon [***]. Vaccinex shall continue to pay the [***] fee until the earlier of the following events: (i) Vaccinex makes its first milestone pursuant to a Cell Line Sale Agreement, (ii) Vaccinex notifies Catalent that it no longer desires access to the research cell bank or (iii) this Agreement is terminated by either Party. In any such event, Vaccinex will immediately destroy all research cells in its possession, document such destruction and send notice to Catalent that all cells have been destroyed. If such destruction occurs prior to the end of any annual Research License term, Vaccinex shall be entitled to a prorated credit towards other services from Catalent’s Middleton Facility (for example, [***]). In no event shall any research cells containing GPEx Technology (including expression cassettes) (x) be transferred to any entity that is not an Affiliate of Vaccinex without obtaining prior consent from Catalent or (y) used for any cGMP activity (including the creation of a master cell bank).

B. Catalent hereby grants to Vaccinex during the Term a non-exclusive, world-wide, fully paid-up, royalty-free license under and to all Process Inventions owned by Catalent pursuant to the terms of Section 7.2 (excluding any Invention which is an improvement to, is based upon, or would require the use of the GPEx Technology to practice) solely as necessary for Vaccinex to develop, conduct clinical trials for, formulate, manufacture, test, and seek regulatory approval for the sale of the Drug Substance and any Drug Product.

7.6 Cell Line Sale Agreement. At the request of Vaccinex at any time from time to time during the Term and within [***] following the expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason, Catalent shall sell Production Cell Line(s) to Vaccinex (and/or a designee reasonably acceptable to Catalent) pursuant to a Cell Line Sale Agreement for manufacture of the Drug Product (and no other product). As part of such agreement, Catalent shall also transfer to Vaccinex (or the purchasing designee as set forth above) the information necessary to use such Production Cell Line(s) to produce Expression Product and Drug Substance. The financial terms for the Cell Line Sale Agreement shall be based on the LOI provided that Phase A1 of Services for such Drug Product was scheduled to commence prior to December 31, 2009 pursuant to an executed SOW. All other terms and conditions of such sale and transfer will be negotiated in good faith by the parties, without unreasonable delay.
