Page 12 of 42
will provide one another with all related paperwork and records (including, but
not limited to, quality control tests) relating to both the production of the
Product and the Disapproval Notice.
7.2.3 If Client does not approve within the Acceptance Period
documentation regarding a shipment of Product that complies with the Product
Warranties, CBSW will charge storage fees at the then-current rate for such
shipment of Product until such time as such Product has been shipped. CBSW's
current storage rates are set forth in Schedule 11.1.
7.3 Dispute Resolution.
7.3.1 CBSW and Client will attempt to resolve any dispute regarding
the conformity of a Batch of Product or portion thereof with the Product
Warranties. If such dispute cannot be settled within 30 days of the submission
by each Party of such related paperwork and records to the other Party, then
such dispute will be resolved as follows.
(a) If the Product is alleged not to conform with the Product
Warranties set forth in Section 7.1(a), then Client will submit a sample of the
Batch of the disputed shipment to an independent testing laboratory of
recognized repute selected by Client and approved by CBSW (such approval not to
be unreasonably withheld) for analysis, under Quality Assurance approved
procedures, of the conformity of such shipment of Product with the
Specifications. The costs associated with such analysis by such independent
testing laboratory will be paid by the Party whose assessment of the conformity
of the shipment of Product with the Specifications was mistaken. The
determination by the independent testing laboratory, unless clearly erroneous,
will be final and binding.
(b) If the Product is alleged not to conform with the Product
Warranties set forth in Section 7.1(b) or 7.1(c), such dispute will be submitted
to an arbitrator located in the state where the Product is manufactured, with
adequate scientific background and training, and selected jointly by CBSW and
Client. Such arbitrator, employing the Commercial Arbitration rules of the
American Arbitration Association, will determine whether the Product is in
non-conformance with the Product Warranties set forth in Section 7.1(b) or
7.1(c), and such arbitrator's findings will be final and binding. The costs and
expenses associated with the retention of such arbitrator will be borne by CBSW
in the event that such arbitrator orders CBSW to produce a Production Rerun
pursuant to Section 7.4 below. In all other events, Client will be responsible
for the payment of all such costs and expenses.
7.4 Remedies for Non-Conforming Product.
7.4.1 In the event that the Parties agree, or an independent testing
laboratory or an arbitrator determines, pursuant to Section 7.3, that a Batch of
Product or a portion thereof materially fails to conform to the Product
Warranties due to the failure of: (a) CBSW personnel properly to execute the
Master Production Record, (b) CBSW personnel to comply with cGMP, (c) CBSW or
its personnel otherwise, or (d) the Facility utilities, then CBSW will produce
for Client sufficient quantities of Product to replace the non-conforming Batch
of Product or portion thereof (the "Production Rerun"), in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement without charging Client [***]
Page 13 of 42
[***] (collectively the "Production Rerun Expenses"). In addition, [***] .
7.4.2 In the event that the Parties agree, or an independent testing
laboratory or an arbitrator determines, pursuant to Section 7.3, that a Batch of
Product or portion thereof materially fails to conform to the Product Warranties
for any reason other than as set forth in Section 7.4.1, then CBSW will perform
a Production Rerun at Client's expense and Client will bear the expenses of any
resulting required Product recall.
7.4.3 Client acknowledges and agrees that its sole remedy with respect
to the failure of Product to conform with any of the Product Warranties is as
set forth in this Section 7.4, and in furtherance thereof, Client hereby waives
all other remedies at law or in equity regarding the foregoing claims.
7.4.4 Nothing in this Section 7.4 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall
preclude Client from making a claim against CBSW [***] .
8. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION OF MATERIALS AND/OR PRODUCT
8.1 Remedies. If during the manufacture of Product pursuant to this
Agreement, Product and/or Materials are destroyed or damaged by CBSW Personnel,
and such damage or destruction resulted from CBSW's material failure to execute
the applicable Process in conformity with the Master Production Record, then,
except as provided in Section 8.2 below, CBSW will provide Client with
additional Product production time equal to the actual time lost because of the
destruction or damage of the Product and/or Materials, without charging Client a
Monthly Fee or any portion thereof for such additional time or for any other
Product Rerun Expenses and will replace such Product and/or Materials at no cost
to Client. Client acknowledges and agrees that its sole remedy with respect to
damaged or destroyed Materials and/or Product (except for the non-conformity of
shipped Product described in Section 7) is as set forth in this Section 8.1, and
in furtherance thereof, Client hereby waives all other remedies at law or in
equity regarding the foregoing claims.
8.2 Limitations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the
preceding Section 8.1, if during the manufacture of Product pursuant to this
Agreement, Product or Materials are destroyed or damaged by CBSW Personnel while
CBSW Personnel were acting at the direction of Client Personnel, and without
negligence or other fault of CBSW Personnel, then CBSW will have no liability to
Client as the result of such destruction or damage.
8.3 Dispute Resolution. CBSW and Client will attempt to resolve any dispute
regarding the liability of CBSW under Section 8.1, but if such dispute cannot be
settled within 30 days after the occurrence of the applicable damage or
destruction, then the dispute will be
Page 14 of 42
submitted to an arbitrator, with the requisite scientific background and
training, and selected jointly by CBSW and Client. Such arbitrator, employing
the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, will
determine the cause of such damage or destruction, and such arbitrator's
findings will be final and binding. The costs and expenses of such arbitrator
will be borne by the party that does not prevail in the arbitration proceeding.
If the arbitration proceeding is commenced by Client the arbitrator will be
located in, and the hearing held in Baltimore, Maryland. If the arbitration
proceeding is commenced by CBSW the arbitrator will be located in, and the
hearing held in, New York City, New York.

and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, and defend and
hold each of them harmless, from and against any and all Losses arising from or
occurring as a result of or in connection with (a) any material breach by CBSW
of this Agreement (except as precipitated by a breach by Client of this
Agreement), or (b) the negligence or willful misconduct on the part of one or
more of the CBSW Parties in performing any activity contemplated by this
Agreement, except for those Losses for which Client has an obligation to
indemnify CBSW and its Affiliates pursuant to Section 17.1, as to which Losses
each Party will indemnify the other to the extent of their respective liability
for the Losses.
17.3 Indemnification Procedure.
17.3.1 Notice of Claim. All indemnification claims in respect of a
Party, its Affiliates or their respective directors, officers, employees and
agents (each, an "Indemnitee") will be made solely by the applicable Party (the
"Indemnified Party"). The Indemnified Party will give the indemnifying Party
(the "Indemnifying Party") prompt written notice (an "Indemnification Claim
Notice") of any Losses or discovery of fact upon which such Indemnified Party
intends to base a request for indemnification under Section 17.1 or Section
17.2, but in no event will the Indemnifying Party be liable for any Losses that
result from any delay in providing such notice. Each Indemnification Claim
Notice must contain a description of the claim and the nature and amount of such
Loss, to the extent that the nature and amount of such Loss are known at such
time. The Indemnified Party will furnish promptly to the Indemnifying Party
copies of all papers and official documents received in respect of any Losses.
17.3.2 Third Party Claims. The obligations of an Indemnifying Party
under this Section 17 with respect to Losses arising from claims of any Third
Party that are subject to indemnification as provided for in Section 17.1 or
17.2 (a "Third Party Claim") will be governed by and be contingent upon the
following additional terms and conditions: At its option, the Indemnifying Party
may assume the defense of any Third Party Claim by giving written notice to the
Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days after the Indemnifying Party's receipt
of an Indemnification Claim Notice.
(a) Upon assuming the defense of a Third Party Claim, the
Indemnifying Party may appoint as lead counsel in the defense of the Third Party
Claim any legal counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party. In the event the
Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified
Party will immediately deliver to the
Page 24 of 42
Indemnifying Party all original notices and documents (including court papers)
received by any Indemnitee in connection with the Third Party Claim. Should the
Indemnifying Party assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying
Party will not be liable to the Indemnified Party or any other Indemnitee for
any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party or other
Indemnitee in connection with the analysis, defense or settlement of the Third
Party Claim.
17.3.3 Right to Participate in Defense. Without limiting Section
17.3.2(a) above, any Indemnitee will be entitled to participate in, but not
control, the defense of such Third Party Claim and to employ counsel of its
choice for such purpose; provided, however, that such employment will be at the
Indemnitee's own expense unless (i) the employment thereof has been specifically
authorized by the Indemnifying Party in writing, or (ii) the Indemnifying Party
has failed to assume the defense and employ counsel in accordance with Section
17.3.2(a), in which case the Indemnified Party will control the defense.
17.3.4 Settlement. With respect to any Losses relating solely to the
payment of money damages in connection with a Third Party Claim and that will
not result in the Indemnitee's becoming subject to injunctive or other relief or
otherwise adversely affect the business of the Indemnitee in any manner, and as
to which the Indemnifying Party will have acknowledged in writing the obligation
to indemnify the Indemnitee hereunder, the Indemnifying Party will have the sole
right to consent to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or
otherwise dispose of such Loss, on such terms as the Indemnifying Party, in its
sole discretion, will deem appropriate, and will transfer to the Indemnified
Party all amounts which said Indemnified Party will be liable to pay prior to
the entry of judgment. With respect to all other Losses in connection with a
Third Party Claim, where the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of the
Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 17.3.2(a), the Indemnifying Party
will have authority to consent to the entry of any judgment, enter into any
settlement or otherwise dispose of such Loss provided it obtains the prior
written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent will be at the
Indemnified Party's sole and absolute discretion). The Indemnifying Party will
not be liable for any settlement or other disposition of a Loss by an Indemnitee
that is reached without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party.
Regardless of whether the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any
Third Party Claim, no Indemnitee will admit any liability with respect to, or
settle, compromise or discharge, any Third Party Claim without the prior written
consent of the Indemnifying Party.
17.3.5 Cooperation. Regardless of whether the Indemnifying Party
chooses to defend or prosecute any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party
will, and will cause each other Indemnitee to, cooperate in the defense or
prosecution thereof and will furnish such records, information and testimony,
provide such witnesses and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings,
hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested in connection
therewith. Such cooperation will include access during normal business hours
afforded to the Indemnifying Party, and reasonable retention by the Indemnified
Party of, records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third
Party Claim, and making Indemnitees and other employees and agents available on
a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of
any material provided hereunder, and the Indemnifying Party xxxx
Xxxx 25 of 42
reimburse the Indemnified Party for all its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in
connection therewith.
17.4 Expenses. Except as provided above in this Section 17, the reasonable
and verifiable costs and expenses, including fees and disbursements of counsel,
incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with any claim will be
reimbursed on a calendar quarter basis by the Indemnifying Party, without
prejudice to the Indemnifying Party's right to contest the Indemnified Party's
right to indemnification and subject to refund in the event the Indemnifying
Party is ultimately held not to be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party.
18. MISCELLANEOUS
18.1 Independent Contractors. Neither Party is authorized, nor will
undertake, to bind the other Party in any way as agent, partner, joint venturer
or otherwise, whether in the name of CBSW or Client or otherwise. CBSW is an
independent contractor of Client, and neither CBSW nor any person or entity
employed, contracted, or otherwise utilized by CBSW for any purposes will be
deemed to be an employee, representative or agent of Client.
18.2 Force Majeure. In the event of a delay caused by war, terrorist act,
civil unrest, riots, inclement weather, fire, flood, strike or other labor
dispute, acts of God, acts of governmental officials or agencies, or any other
cause beyond the control of CBSW or Client, CBSW and Client, as the case may be,
will be excused from performance hereunder for the period or periods of time
attributable to such delay. There will be no increase in compensation as a
result of any event of delay under this Section 18.2 or otherwise.
18.3 Condemnation. If the Facility is condemned or taken as a result of the
exercise of the power of eminent domain or will be conveyed to a governmental
agency having power of eminent domain under the threat of the exercise of such
power (any of the foregoing, a "Condemnation"), then this Agreement will
terminate as of the date on which title to the Facility vests in the authority
so exercising or threatening to exercise such power and Client will only have
the right to a portion of the Condemnation proceeds if the Custom Production
Suite was actually built. Client's right to a portion of the Condemnation
proceeds shall be in the from of a refund and shall be calculated according to
the following formula: the numerator equal to the uncredited portion of the
Construction Fee and the denominator equal to the total cost of construction of
the Custom Production Suite multiplied by a portion of the net proceeds received
by CBSW as a result of such condemnation.
18.4 Notices. All notices, consents, waivers, and other communications
under this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed to have been given
when (i) delivered by hand (with written confirmation of receipt), (ii) sent by
fax (with written confirmation of receipt), provided that a copy is mailed by
U.S. registered mail, return receipt requested, (iii) when received by the
addressee, if sent by a nationally recognized overnight delivery service

Recitals and Schedules hereto are hereby incorporated herein by reference.
18.6 Governing Law and Jurisdiction. This Agreement will be governed by and

18.8 Amendments. This Agreement (including any Schedule hereto) may not be
amended or modified, and no provisions hereof may be waived, without the written
consent of the Parties.
18.9 Severability. Each provision of this Agreement (and each Schedule
hereto) will be treated as a separate and independent clause, and the
unenforceability of any one clause will in no way impair the enforceability of
any of the other clauses herein. If one or more of the provisions contained in
this Agreement (or any Schedule hereto) will for any reason be held to be
excessively broad as to scope, activity, subject or otherwise, so as to be
unenforceable at law, such provision or provisions will be construed by the
appropriate judicial body by limiting or reducing it or them so as to be
enforceable to the maximum extent compatible with the applicable law as it will
then appear.

will be permitted to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to one or more
of its Affiliates. Any purported assignment not permitted under this Section
18.12 will be null, void, and of no effect. Any permitted assignment shall not
release the assignor from liability hereunder if such assignor's obligations
hereunder are not performed by its assignee.
18.13 Waiver. The failure of any Party at any time or times to require
performance of any provision of this Agreement (including any Schedule hereto)
will in no manner affect its rights at a later time to enforce the same. No
waiver by any Party of the breach of any term contained in this Agreement
(including any Schedule hereto), whether by conduct or otherwise, in any one or
more instances, will be deemed to be or construed as a further or continuing
waiver of any such breach or the breach of any other term of this Agreement
(including any Schedule hereto).

Fresh Product & Cryopreserved Product
Description:
A bilayered cellular matrix in which normal human allogeneic skin cells
(epidermal keratinocytes and dermal fibroblasts) are cultured in two
separate layers on and within a Type I bovine collagen sponge matrix. Donor
dermal fibroblasts are cultured on and within the porous sponge side of the
collagen matrix while keratinocytes, from the same donor, are cultured on
the coated, non-porous side of the collagen matrix. The Product serves as
an absorbable biocompatible matrix that provides a favorable environment
for host cell migration and has been shown to contain the following
cell-expressed cytokines and growth factors: FGF-1 (bFGF), XXX, XX-XXX,
XX-0(xxxxx), XX-0(xxxx), XX-0, HGF, KGF-1 (FGF-7), M-CSF, PDGF-AB,
TGF-(alpha), TGF-(beta)1, TGF-(beta)2, and VEGF. The Product is not
intended to be a human skin replacement and does not contain Langerhans
cells, melanocytes, macrophages, lymphocytes, blood vessels or hair
follicles.
The Product is manufactured under aseptic conditions from human neonatal
foreskin tissue. The donor's mother is tested and found to be negative for
syphilis and for human viruses, including CMV, HSV I & II, HTLV I & II,
Hepatitis A, B&C, HIV 1&2, EBV and HHV-6. The donor's fibroblast and
keratinocyte cells are tested and found to be negative for viruses and
retroviruses (including HTLV I&II, Hepatitis B, HIV 1&2, EBV, and HHV-6),
bacteria, fungi, yeast, mycoplasma, and tumorigenicity. The donor cells are
tested and are found to be normal human cells using karyology, isoenzyme,
growth and morphological analyses. Prior to cell seeding, the sponge matrix
is cross-linked and then coated on one side with a thin gel layer prepared
from acid-soluble collagen. The final Product is tested for morphology,
cell density, cell viability, metabolic activity, sterility, mycoplasma,
endotoxins and physical container integrity. All animal derived reagents
are tested for: viruses, bacteria, fungi, yeast, and mycoplasma before use,
and all bovine material is obtained from countries free of Bovine
Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE). The device measures approximately 6 cm x 6
cm (minimally 36 cm(2)).
