In the event of any conflict between the SOPs and the Regulations, the Regulations shall control. In the event of any conflict between CLIENT Specifications or SAFC’s SOPs, CLIENT and SAFC shall mutually agree to which document shall control; provided that unless and until CLIENT and SAFC come to such agreement, SAFC Specifications shall control. Subject to review and agreement by SAFC, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, CLIENT reserves the right to substitute or supplement its own standard operating procedures for any current or future Project. In such case as SAFC and CLIENT agree to substitute or supplement an SOP, CLIENT shall

provide prompt and reasonable training to any SAFC personnel subject to such CLIENT standard operating procedures, all to be at CLIENT’s expense. In the event SAFC reasonably determines that such substitution shall increase or decrease the cost of performing the Services for such Project(s), SAFC shall follow the Change Order procedure described in Section 2.5 below.

(b) Within ten (10) business days of SAFC’s receipt of a Change Order initiated by CLIENT, SAFC shall furnish CLIENT with an estimate of the amount of time necessary to implement such Change and the effect, if any, of the Change(s) requested in the Change Order upon the applicable Budget (whether an increase or decrease). Upon CLIENT’s written approval of SAFC’s estimate, the Change Order shall be deemed to be approved and SAFC is authorized to proceed with the Change.

(c) In addition to the items noted above, a Change Order initiated by SAFC and provided to CLIENT shall contain, in reasonable detail, the reason for the Change(s) and an estimate of the effect of the Change(s), if any, on the applicable Budget (whether an increase or decrease). If SAFC indicates that the Changes to be made pursuant to a Change Order will result in an increase to the applicable Budget, SAFC shall provide CLIENT the following: (i) an analysis of the reasons why SAFC believes its costs will be demonstrably increased by the requested Changes and any applicable supporting documentation; (ii) reasonable evidence that SAFC has reviewed any alternatives and information on any adverse impact to the Services (if any) to accommodate the Changes without increasing the Budget; (iii) details of any new or increased fees; and (iv) any other relevant information requested by CLIENT to verify such proposed Changes. Upon CLIENT’s written approval of SAFC’s estimate, the Change Order shall be deemed to be approved and SAFC may proceed with the Change.

SAFC shall use commercially reasonable efforts to accommodate such change; provided that CLIENT will reimburse SAFC the reasonable and necessary direct costs SAFC incurs in making any such change; provided further that the parties shall engage in good faith negotiations to adjust the Budget to reflect the increase or decrease of ongoing costs hereunder resulting from any such change; provided further that if the parties cannot reach agreement to adjust the Budget pursuant to this Section 5.1 despite such good faith negotiations, then SAFC shall not be required to change the Specifications or SOPs as requested by CLIENT until the parties reach such agreement.

5.2 Testing. Unless otherwise specified in the Task Order, with respect to each shipment of Product to be shipped to CLIENT, SAFC shall test such Product to ensure compliance with the Specifications.

5.3 Acceptance. Subject to Section 5.4 below, CLIENT shall have a period of thirty (30) days from the date of its receipt of a shipment of Product to inspect such delivered Product and the accompanying COA and COC and reject the corresponding shipment of Product for nonconformity with the Technical Specifications and/or Specifications. If CLIENT rejects such shipment, it shall promptly so notify SAFC and the provisions of Section 8.3 below shall apply.

5.4 Latent Defects. If after accepting a shipment of Product, CLIENT subsequently discovers latent material defects (including without limitation, nonconformance to the Specifications) not

reasonably discoverable during the acceptance period set forth in Section 5.3 above, CLIENT may revoke its acceptance of such shipment of Product by giving written notice and disclosing the nature of any defects to SAFC as soon as practicable after discovering such defects. In such event, such Product shall be considered a nonconforming Product to the extent latent material defects in fact are present, and the provisions of Section 8.3 below shall apply.

5.5 Deviation Report. If during the manufacture, processing, storage, distribution, testing, transport, disposal or other handling of Product by SAFC there arises an unexpected result that has an unknown or potential impact on product safety, identity, strength, quality, purity, efficacy or manufacturing/testing process then SAFC shall prepare within ten (10)business days following the discovery of such deviation a written report detailing such deviation (a “Deviation Report”) and promptly send to CLIENT such Deviation Report prior to SAFC’s delivery of the Product which is the subject of such report. If CLIENT rejects a shipment of Product based on a Deviation Report, it shall promptly notify SAFC, such Product shall be considered a Nonconforming Product and the provisions of Section 8.3 shall apply.

5.6 Delivery. All Product and other materials to be provided by SAFC under this Agreement shall be shipped FCA the Facility (Incoterms 2010). For clarity, SAFC will contract for carriage on behalf of CLIENT with carrier selected by CLIENT and to the extent possible, will xxxx directly to CLIENT’s account with the carrier; otherwise, SAFC will add actual out-of-pocket freight charges to the applicable invoice, with supporting documentation of such charges provided to CLIENT. Risk of loss shall pass to CLIENT when the Product or other materials are loaded onto the carrier.

ARTICLE 6 — COMPENSATION AND PAYMENT

6.1 Budget. SAFC shall prepare and submit to CLIENT for its approval a detailed budget for all expenses anticipated for each Project including SAFC’s fees and any pass-through expenses which shall be agreed upon by the parties and form part of the relevant Task Order (“Budget”).

CLIENT’s payments to SAFC under this Agreement are compensation for SAFC’s Services. CLIENT and SAFC hereby acknowledge and agree that any compensation payable to SAFC: (i) constitutes fair market value for the Services; (ii) is not being given in exchange for an explicit or implicit agreement by SAFC to provide favorable status to CLIENT or any of its products or to influence results; and (iii) has not been determined in a manner that takes into account the volume or value of any referrals generated by SAFC.

6.3 Invoicing and Payments. SAFC shall invoice CLIENT for expenses incurred and Services performed for each Project in accordance with a payment schedule to be agreed by the parties and made a part of the relevant Task Order. All outstanding invoices under a given Task Order must be paid by CLIENT within thirty (30) calendar days of completion of the Services which are

subject to the Task Order. If SAFC or BioReliance does not receive payment by the due date, an interest charge may be added at the rate of ***% per month (***% per year) or the maximum legal rate, whichever is less, to unpaid invoices from the due date thereof.

All payments provided for under the terms of this Agreement shall be made within thirty (30) calendar days of CLIENT’s receipt and review of invoice and supporting documentation, if any, and by check or wire transfer payable to SAFC or BioReliance, whichever is applicable to a Project or Task Order. Details for wire transfer will be made available upon request.

6.4 Disputed Invoices. If any portion of an invoice is disputed, then CLIENT shall dispute such invoice in writing within twenty (20) days of receipt of such invoice and pay the undisputed amounts, and the parties shall use good faith efforts to reconcile the disputed amounts as soon as practicable.

6.5 Taxes. CLIENT shall only be responsible for paying for value-added taxes, sales taxes and/or customs/duties imposed by the relevant taxing authority on payments made to the SAFC pursuant to this Agreement.

7.4 Proprietary Rights.

(a) Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement each Party owns, and shall continue to own its existing intellectual property, without conferring any interests therein on the

other Party. Nothing contained in this Agreement nor any disclosure or provision to SAFC of any CLIENT Confidential Information or other CLIENT information or items shall be deemed to transfer or grant to SAFC or any other person or entity any right of use or exploitation thereof nor to any right, title, interest, or license in, to or under any patent, patent application or other intellectual property, right or asset of CLIENT (including without limitation, any CLIENT Materials, cell banks, specimens, documentation, Records, Specifications, raw data, work product, improvements, discoveries, know-how, inventions and other insights), whether patentable or not.

(b) SAFC agrees that all data, information, documents, concepts, ideas, know-how, inventions, improvements and other insights, whether or not patentable, exclusive of SAFC Inventions (defined below) arising from SAFC’s performance of its obligations under this Agreement (collectively “Inventions”), shall promptly be disclosed to CLIENT in writing. CLIENT shall have sole and exclusive rights to all such Inventions. SAFC will, at no cost to CLIENT, execute any and all documents and do any and all things reasonably requested by CLIENT to vest and perfect CLIENT’s interest in the Inventions.

(c) SAFC hereby assigns to CLIENT all right, title and interest, including copyrights and other intellectual property rights, in and to all Inventions which may be developed as a result of SAFC’s performance of the Services, or by SAFC in the course of performing its obligations under this Agreement.

CLIENT agrees that all Process Inventions are the exclusive property of SAFC and constitute Propriety Information of SAFC. SAFC agrees that all Other Inventions that are not Process Inventions shall be deemed to be Inventions and consequently the exclusive property of CLIENT and Confidential Information of CLIENT.

(e) SAFC shall ensure that all of SAFC’s employees, agents and authorized contractors are employed or engaged on terms consistent with this Section 7.4, including without limitation bound by written obligations containing a present assignment of their interest in any Deliverables and Inventions to SAFC, so they will thereupon be deemed to be assigned to CLIENT as provided in this Agreement.

7.5 Application of Technology.

(a) In the process of performing a Project, SAFC may apply SAFC Technology to the Manufacture of the Product. To the extent that any CLIENT Technology is necessary in

order to enable SAFC to perform the Project, CLIENT will disclose to SAFC the applicable CLIENT Technology and hereby grants to SAFC a limited, non-exclusive license in and to any CLIENT Technology that is disclosed to SAFC, for the sole purpose of performing the Project. Except to the extent set forth herein, this Agreement confers no license or intellectual property rights to SAFC by CLIENT for any CLIENT Technology.

(b) SAFC hereby grants to CLIENT non-exclusive license, with the limited right to sub-license as described below, to any and all SAFC Technology and Process Inventions, provided that CLIENT’s use of such SAFC Technology and Process Inventions relates directly and exclusively to the manufacture, cell banking, production, packaging, labeling, testing, inspecting, quality control, storage, preparing for shipment, shipment and transportation of the Product. CLIENT’s license right under this clause shall not extend to inventions, processes or technology that are developed by SAFC prior to its undertaking the Project (except to the extent SAFC Technology is integrated in the process for any Manufacturing of the Product) or that are not related directly to the Manufacture of the Product. Upon providing SAFC with prior written notice of the name and address of the sublicensee and subject to a sublicensee’s written agreement to be bound by the confidentiality provisions of Section 7.1 above, CLIENT may sublicense its rights under this clause; provided that CLIENT shall promptly provide SAFC with written notice of the name and address of the sublicensee.

7.6 Equitable Relief. Each party hereby acknowledges and agrees that any actual or threatened breach of the confidentiality obligations hereof relating to the Confidential Information of the other party would cause irreparable harm to such other party for which remedies at law would not be adequate. Therefore, in the event of any such breach such other party shall be entitled to injunctive relief, including injunction in addition to any and all other remedies available at law or in equity.

***Portions of this page have been omitted pursuant to a request for Confidential Treatment and filed separately with the Commission.

10.4 Procedures on Termination. Upon termination of this Agreement or a Task Order:

(a) SAFC shall fully cooperate with CLIENT requests to provide for an orderly wind down of the Services provided therefor, and, if CLIENT elects to continue any of the Projects in the event of a termination of this Agreement, an orderly transfer of SAFC’s responsibilities with respect to such Projects to CLIENT or its designee;

(b) SAFC shall, as directed by CLIENT:

(i) deliver all Records to the location designated by CLIENT;

(ii) retain all Records in accordance with Section 3.3 herein;

(iii) dispose of all Records in accordance with all applicable laws and Regulations unless SAFC is otherwise required to retain copies of such materials, information, databases and records, accounts, notes, reports or data under applicable law or Regulations (in which case, SAFC shall retain one copy of all such materials, information, databases and records, accounts, notes, reports and data for the time required by applicable regulations and such items shall continue to be subject to the provisions of Article 7);

10.5 Effect of Termination of Task Orders or Agreement.

The termination of any Task Order shall have no effect on the continued existence and enforceability of this Agreement.

Termination of this Agreement or a Task Order shall not relieve CLIENT from any accrued but unpaid obligations for Services properly performed and expenses incurred by SAFC prior to such termination date or for reasonable non-cancelable expenses properly incurred by SAFC under this Agreement prior to the date of notice of termination (including any non-cancelable expenses so incurred but payable after the effective date of termination) which would otherwise have been payable by CLIENT under the terms of this Agreement. SAFC shall use its best efforts to mitigate the amount of non-cancelable obligations which could be payable by CLIENT following termination.

10.6 Postponement of Projects. Subject to SAFC’s Delay and Cancellation Policy in Section 10.7 below, CLIENT may, in its sole discretion, postpone or delay any Projects covered under this Agreement. In the event of postponement or delay of any one or more of the Projects under a Task Order, CLIENT may, by giving written notice to SAFC, postpone or delay SAFC’s performance of Services with respect to such Projects. In the event of postponement or delay of the Services, CLIENT shall remain obligated to pay to SAFC all accrued but unpaid amounts (and any applicable delay or cancellation fees as described in Section 10.7) for Services satisfactorily rendered by SAFC through the date of such postponement or delay. Upon receipt of written notice of postponement or delay of Services under this Agreement, SAFC shall use its best efforts to immediately suspend its performance, and shall make no further expenditures nor incur further expenses, under this Agreement with respect to such Services until such time as CLIENT notifies SAFC of the resumption of such Services. In the event of resumption of the Services, CLIENT shall notify SAFC in writing, at which time SAFC will determine if it wishes to resume such Services and the time frame to resume such Services activities with respect to such Project in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Except as stated in Section 10.7, SAFC shall not have any claim against CLIENT for lost profits or consequential or any other damages which may arise as a result of any such postponement or delay of one or more of the Services under a Task Order.

10.7 SAFC Delay and Cancellation Policy.

The following Delay/Cancellation Fee Schedule applies to any CLIENT caused delays or cancellations pursuant to Section 10.6 above to the mutually agreed upon schedule for an individual Project to the extent such Project involves Manufacture of Product in SAFC’s cGMP suite; provided that such delay or cancellation was not mutually agreed to by the parties and was not the direct or indirect result of a force majeure event under Section 11.13 or act or omission of SAFC or any Affiliate. Percentages are applied to the total remaining fees for cGMP suite Services for the portion of the individual Project that is delayed or cancelled. Delay and cancellation fees are only applicable after signature of the Project Start Order (PSO) for each Project by CLIENT. In the event of a delay, both parties shall use reasonable and good faith efforts to reschedule and avoid the application of the delay fees. SAFC shall use reasonable and good faith efforts to mitigate any losses from delays and cancellations, and delay and cancellation fees shall be applied only to the extent SAFC is unable to mitigate such losses, including substituting other Projects for CLIENT or projects for SAFC, its Affiliates or other customers. Imposition of any delay and cancellation fees will be at the reasonable discretion of SAFC, and imposition of delay and cancellation fees shall constitute SAFC’s sole remedy for any such delay or cancellation.

(a) SAFC may not subcontract the performance of any of the Services to third parties without CLIENT’s prior written consent. SAFC shall at all times remain jointly and severally liable with any subcontractors for the full and proper performance of all of its obligations under this Agreement and shall be solely responsible for the oversight of all permitted subcontractors. If the Services require SAFC to pay any permitted third parties, SAFC agrees that it shall disburse promptly funds to the appropriate third parties.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 11.1(a) above, SAFC shall be responsible for ensuring that its contracts with approved subcontractors are consistent with the terms of this Agreement and the respective Task Order and shall permit CLIENT to audit such subcontractor as provided herein.
