2.	MANUFACTURE AND SUPPLY OF PRODUCT; PERFORMANCE OF SERVICES

2.1.

Scope of Agreement. This Supply Agreement covers (a) the Manufacture and supply of Supplied Products by AstraZeneca or its Affiliates to SPINCO for SPINCO’s clinical use of such Supplied Products and (b) the performance by AstraZeneca or its Affiliates of the Services. Neither SPINCO nor any of its Affiliates, licensees, sublicensees, agents or representatives shall (a) label or re-label (or cause to be labeled or re-labeled) or supply any Supplied Product for commercial sale or for any use or purpose other than for clinical use or (b) sell or transfer for value (or cause to be sold or transferred for value) to any Third Party any Supplied Product. For the avoidance of doubt, the supply by AstraZeneca of the Product for commercial use by SPINCO is outside the scope of this Supply Agreement, and may be separately negotiated between the Parties.

2.2.

Commercial Agreement. Upon SPINCO’s request, the Parties will negotiate in good faith and deal fairly in entering into a separate commercial supply agreement for the Product based on the terms and conditions customarily used by AstraZeneca in similar agreements with parties outside of the AZ Group (any such agreement, the “Commercial Supply Agreement”). The Parties will seek to execute, or AstraZeneca shall cause its Affiliate to execute, the Commercial Supply Agreement promptly following commencement of such negotiations and in any event within six months of such commencement.

2.3.

Requirements. During the Supply Term, SPINCO shall purchase, and AstraZeneca shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, Manufacture and supply, all of SPINCO’s requirements for Supplied Products in accordance with Clauses 3 and 4; provided that:

(a)

the timing of supply and quantity of Supplied Products to be supplied by AstraZeneca will reflect the facility schedule availability, conditions and lead times for Drug Substance and Drug Product; and

(b)

the timing of supply and quantity of Supplied Products to be supplied by AstraZeneca will reflect the scheduling lead time required by any AZ Suppliers.

2.4.

Specifications; Change Control.

(a)

AstraZeneca shall Manufacture or cause its Affiliate to Manufacture each Supplied Product in accordance with all Applicable Laws (including cGMP), the Clinical Quality Agreement, and the Specification for such Supplied Product. Each Supplied Product provided by AstraZeneca pursuant to this Supply Agreement shall conform to the Specification for such Supplied Product at the time of delivery to the Delivery Location.

(b)

Procedures governing changes to the Specification or changes in the Manufacturing process, Manufacturing facility(ies) or Materials used by AstraZeneca to Manufacture any Supplied Product (each a “Manufacturing Change”) are set out in the Clinical Quality Agreement. Any Manufacturing Change shall be implemented in accordance with the provisions of the Clinical Quality Agreement.

(c)

If a Regulatory Authority requires any Manufacturing Change or AstraZeneca acting in good faith, determines that any Manufacturing Change is otherwise required to comply with regulatory requirements (each a “Required Manufacturing Change”), the Parties shall, each acting reasonably and in good faith, endeavor to agree

promptly on an action plan to implement such change; provided that if SPINCO, acting in good faith, disagrees with any AstraZeneca determination that a Manufacturing Change is required, AstraZeneca shall consider SPINCO’s comments in good faith. The costs and expenses of implementing such change shall be borne solely by SPINCO; provided that, if and to the extent such Manufacturing Change is being made for the benefit of Supplied Products and other products that are Manufactured by AstraZeneca then SPINCO shall bear an equitable proportion of such costs and expenses.

(d)

From time to time during the Supply Term, SPINCO may request a Manufacturing Change other than a Required Manufacturing Change and AstraZeneca will consider any such requests in good faith. If AstraZeneca provides consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), it will provide SPINCO with an estimate of the timeframe and costs and expenses for implementation of the change, including whether any such costs and expenses (or a portion thereof) shall be [***]. If the Manufacturing Change is implemented, unless otherwise agreed, SPINCO shall bear the costs and expenses of the change. Where a Manufacturing Change is required by SPINCO and such change results in rendering obsolete any inventory of Supplied Products or Materials used in the Manufacture of the Supplied Products, SPINCO shall bear the costs and expenses of such write-off (including waste disposal costs) for Supplied Products and Materials that AstraZeneca is not able to utilize elsewhere; provided that AstraZeneca will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to utilize such Materials and SPINCO will provide AstraZeneca with reasonable assistance in doing so.

(e)

Specific aspects or details of Confidential Information shall not be deemed to be within the public domain or in the possession of the receiving Party merely because the Confidential Information is embraced by more general information in the public domain or in the possession of the receiving Party. Further, any combination of Confidential Information shall not be considered in the public domain or in the possession of the receiving Party merely because individual elements of such Confidential Information are in the public domain or in the possession of the receiving Party unless the combination and its principles are in the public domain or in the possession of the receiving Party.

(c)

For clarity, (i) except to the extent assigned to SPINCO pursuant to the APA, Confidential Information of AstraZeneca or its Affiliates known to employees of SPINCO prior to the Effective Date shall remain AstraZeneca Confidential Information and shall be deemed to have been disclosed to SPINCO subject to obligations of confidentiality; and (ii) even if known to any such employee, SPINCO shall not use or disclose any MedImmune Manufacturing Technology except as provided in Clause 13.8.

13.2.

Permitted Disclosure. Notwithstanding Clause 13.1, but in each case ((a) through (d)) subject to Clause 13.8 (MedImmune Manufacturing Technology) and Clause 20.2 (Technology Transfer):

(a)

each Party may disclose all or any part of the other Party’s Confidential Information to its Affiliates, and to its and its Affiliates’ respective Personnel, financial and legal advisors, investors and suppliers (“Representatives”); provided, however, that such Party ensures that such Representatives comply mutatis mutandis with the obligations imposed on such Party under this Clause 13 and such Party shall be liable for any breach of such obligations by its Representatives. Each Party will disclose Confidential Information received from the other Party only to those of its Representatives who have a need to know such Confidential Information for the purpose carrying out its obligations or exercising its rights under this Supply Agreement or, with respect to disclosures to financial advisors and investors, as provided in Clause 13.2(b), and in any case only to the extent required for the permitted purpose. For example, disclosure of expenses on a profit and loss basis would not require disclosure of the actual Supply Price, the terms of Clause 7.1 or any details [***];

(b)

SPINCO may disclose AstraZeneca’s Confidential Information to financial advisors and investors for the purpose of raising finance for SPINCO (e.g. for clinical trials), provided that AstraZeneca has given its prior written consent to the form and content of such proposed disclosure (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). Following approval of such disclosure document by AstraZeneca, subject to Clause 13.2(a), SPINCO may disclose the information contained in such document to financial advisors, investors and potential investors for such purpose without the need for further approval by AstraZeneca;

(c)

each Party may disclose the other Party’s Confidential Information to the extent that such disclosure is (i) required to be made in response to a valid order of a court or governmental authority of competent jurisdiction; or (ii) is otherwise required by Applicable Law; provided that the Party requested or required to disclose such Confidential Information shall first promptly notify the other Party in writing in a timely manner so that such other Party may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy or, in such other Party’s sole discretion, waive compliance with the confidentiality provisions of this Supply Agreement as to their own Confidential Information. Each Party will cooperate in all reasonable respects in connection with any reasonable actions to be taken for the foregoing purpose. In any event, the Party requested or required to disclose such Confidential Information may furnish it as required by such valid court or governmental order or Applicable Law (subject to any such protective order or other appropriate remedy) without liability hereunder; provided, that such Party furnishes only that portion of the Confidential Information which such Party is advised by an opinion of its counsel is legally required, and such Party exercises reasonable efforts to obtain reliable assurances that a protective order or other comparable confidential treatment will be accorded such Confidential Information; and

(d)

each Party may disclose the other Party’s Confidential Information to any Governmental Authority or Regulatory Authority to the extent necessary to obtain the approval of any such Governmental Authority or Regulatory Authority to Manufacture and supply any Supplied Product or perform any Services pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Supply Agreement; provided, however, that reasonable measures shall be taken to assure confidential treatment of such Confidential Information.

(e)

For clarity, MedImmune Manufacturing Technology will only be disclosed to SPINCO in accordance with Clause 13.8 and, notwithstanding this Clause 13.2, shall only be disclosed by SPINCO as expressly permitted by Clause 13.8.

13.3.

Press Releases; Public Announcements. Except as provided in the APA, SPINCO and AstraZeneca agree not to issue any press releases or public announcements concerning this Supply Agreement (and to ensure that their respective Affiliates do not do so) without the prior written consent of the other Party to the form, timing and content of any such release or announcement, except as required by Applicable Laws, including disclosure required by any securities exchange.

13.4.

Injunctive Relief. Each Party acknowledges that damages resulting from disclosure of Confidential Information not permitted hereby may be an insufficient remedy and that in the event of any such disclosure or any indication of an intent to disclose such information, the other Party shall be entitled to seek, by way of private litigation, injunctive relief or other equitable relief in addition to any and all remedies available at law or in equity.

13.5.

Return or Destruction of Confidential Information. Subject to Clause 13.6, on expiry or termination of this Supply Agreement except as provided to SPINCO under Clause 20.2 (Technology Transfer) and subject to an on-going license, or at any time at the disclosing Party’s request, the receiving Party shall return to the disclosing Party all copies containing

Confidential Information of the disclosing Party or, at the disclosing Party’s option, destroy all copies of such Confidential Information. The return or destruction of the Confidential Information of the disclosing Party will not affect the receiving Party’s obligation to observe the confidentiality and non-use restrictions in respect of that Confidential Information set out in this Supply Agreement.

13.6.

Permitted Retention of Confidential Information. Each Party may keep one (1) copy of Confidential Information for evidence purposes at a secure place subject to the confidentiality and non-use obligations provided in this Clause 13. The aforementioned return and destruction obligation shall not apply to electronic copies of Confidential Information which are rightfully contained in computers, word processors, communication systems and system-backup media (collectively “IT Media”) which do not need to be destroyed or returned, provided that such IT Media are: (a) overwritten in the ordinary course of their reuse; or (b) at all times maintained in confidence and not readily accessible and the receiving Party shall treat such copies as confidential in accordance with this Clause 13.

13.7.

Intellectual Property.

(a)

Intellectual Property Rights arising in connection with the activities undertaken pursuant to this Supply Agreement (“Arising IPR”) shall be owned according to inventorship; provided that to the extent that any Arising IPR conceived, developed or generated by AstraZeneca or an Affiliate of AstraZeneca relates exclusively to the Product, such Arising IPR will be owned by SPINCO (“New SPINCO IPR”). AstraZeneca shall promptly disclose to SPINCO all Know-How that relates exclusively to the Product, and SPINCO shall have the sole discretion in pursuing Patents or other intellectual property rights protection for such Know-How. AstraZeneca hereby assigns to SPINCO all right, title and interest of AstraZeneca in any New SPINCO IPR.

(b)

All Background IPR of AstraZeneca or its Affiliates shall remain vested in and the exclusive property of AstraZeneca, its Affiliates or its licensors, as applicable. With the exception of New SPINCO IPR, all Arising IPR conceived, developed or generated by AstraZeneca or an Affiliate of AstraZeneca will be owned by AstraZeneca.

(c)

SPINCO, on behalf of itself or its Affiliates, hereby grants to AstraZeneca and its Affiliates a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, non-transferable license and a right of reference and use under SPINCO IP, with the right to grant further licenses and sublicenses or rights of reference and use to any Affiliate, AZ Supplier or subcontractor, to the extent necessary during the Supply Term for AstraZeneca and its Affiliates to perform their obligations hereunder.

13.8.

MedImmune Manufacturing Technology. Notwithstanding anything in this Supply Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall AstraZeneca be obligated to disclose any MedImmune Manufacturing Technology to SPINCO, except as provided in this Clause 13.8. During the Supply Term, upon SPINCO’s reasonable request, and at SPINCO’s sole cost and expense, AstraZeneca shall provide SPINCO one or more letters providing SPINCO a right of reference to the relevant IND or other relevant filing with a Regulatory Authority, or shall otherwise provide SPINCO via such other methods as may be available, to allow SPINCO to reference with the applicable Regulatory Authority the relevant CMC Data for the Product solely to the extent necessary for SPINCO to obtain or maintain an IND or other Regulatory Approval for the Product. Such other methods may entail AstraZeneca providing such CMC Data directly to such Regulatory Authority (to the extent permitted by Applicable Law) or, at AstraZeneca’s sole election, directly to SPINCO; provided that SPINCO shall permit AstraZeneca to seek any and all measures available to protect the confidentiality of and

AstraZeneca’s interests in and to such CMC Data, including, if such information is provided directly to SPINCO, restricting access to such CMC Data through a secure data room or portal to specified members of SPINCO’s regulatory affairs and quality assurance departments who need to know such CMC Data in order to prepare, submit, obtain, or maintain an IND or BLA or Regulatory Approval for the Product and who have entered into confidentiality agreements with AstraZeneca in a form reasonably acceptable to AstraZeneca, and SPINCO shall provide full cooperation and assistance to AstraZeneca in seeking to obtain such protection. If required by AstraZeneca, the cover letter for any IND or other Regulatory Approval application submitted by SPINCO in connection with this Supply Agreement shall instruct the applicable Regulatory Authority to direct any questions with respect to the CMC Data for the Product directly to AstraZeneca. If, in connection with obtaining or maintaining any IND or other Regulatory Approval for the Product, SPINCO receives any question from a Regulatory Authority with respect to the CMC Data for the Product or otherwise in connection with any MedImmune Manufacturing Technology, unless AstraZeneca has specified otherwise, SPINCO shall not answer any such question and shall promptly forward such question to AstraZeneca and unless AstraZeneca has specified otherwise, AstraZeneca shall, where this is permissible, provide the answer to any such question directly to the applicable Regulatory Authority. For clarity, (i) if AstraZeneca provides a right of reference, or such other method for SPINCO to utilize the CMC Data other than providing such CMC Data directly to specified personnel at SPINCO, such reference or other method shall not entitle SPINCO to view, access, or otherwise obtain such CMC Data or any other MedImmune Manufacturing Technology; and (ii) to the extent that MedImmune Manufacturing Technology is disclosed pursuant to this Clause 13.8, it may not be further disclosed within SPINCO, to an Affiliate or to any Third Party except to:

(a)

a Regulatory Authority pursuant to this Clause 13.8 to the extent necessary to obtain or maintain a Regulatory Approval for the Product; provided, however, that reasonable measures shall be taken to assure confidential treatment of such MedImmune Manufacturing Technology and SPINCO shall not disclose any MedImmune Manufacturing Technology to any Regulatory Authority or answer any query raised by a Regulatory Authority with respect to MedImmune Manufacturing Technology, unless SPINCO has provided a copy of the query (or other explanation of the need to disclose) and proposed disclosure or response to AstraZeneca and AstraZeneca has given its written consent to such proposed disclosure or response (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed); or

(b)

the extent required pursuant to Clause 13.2(c), as provided therein.

(C)

NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION IN THIS SUPPLY AGREEMENT, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS CLAUSE 13.8, SPINCO SHALL NOT USE OR DISCLOSE MEDIMMUNE MANUFACTURING TECHNOLOGY FOR ANY PURPOSE.

14.

14.1.

Purchase of Special Equipment. SPINCO shall provide or pay the cost of Special Equipment, and pay the costs of installation and validation of such Special Equipment, as described below. AstraZeneca shall advise SPINCO of any Special Equipment requirements and the estimated costs associated with the purchase, installation and qualification of such Special Equipment. If the cost of purchase of such Special Equipment is for an amount greater than [***] for any single item, the Parties must mutually agree on such Special Equipment and SPINCO shall either purchase such Special Equipment and furnish it to AstraZeneca. In any case in which SPINCO furnishes Special Equipment to AstraZeneca, AstraZeneca shall install and qualify such Special Equipment (or arrange for such installation and qualification) at

SPINCO’s cost. If the cost of purchase of such Special Equipment is for an amount less than [***] for any single item, AstraZeneca shall purchase such Special Equipment at SPINCO’s direction and supervision and promptly xxxx SPINCO for all amounts AstraZeneca owes for such Special Equipment. AstraZeneca shall also xxxx SPINCO for the reasonable installation and equipment qualification costs after AstraZeneca installs the Special Equipment. All Special Equipment shall remain at AstraZeneca’s Manufacturing facility.

14.2.

Ownership of Special Equipment. SPINCO shall own any Special Equipment upon the date it makes full payment to AstraZeneca for said Special Equipment. Thereafter, title to and risk of loss of all Special Equipment shall be retained by SPINCO, even if such Special Equipment resides at an AstraZeneca facility; provided, however, that AstraZeneca shall be responsible for replacing any SPINCO owned Special Equipment that is destroyed due to AstraZeneca’s negligence or misconduct.

14.3.

Maintenance of Special Equipment. AstraZeneca shall be responsible for routine maintenance and servicing of the Special Equipment. SPINCO shall be responsible for the cost of non-routine maintenance and servicing of the Special Equipment (including major repairs and material parts replacement), except to the extent caused by AstraZeneca’s negligence or misconduct in which case AstraZeneca shall be responsible. To the extent commercially reasonable, AstraZeneca shall notify SPINCO prior to the performance of any non-routine maintenance or servicing of the Special Equipment. SPINCO shall reimburse AstraZeneca at cost for such non-routine maintenance or servicing costs.

14.4.

Exclusive Use. Special Equipment shall be used exclusively for Manufacturing and supply activities under this Supply Agreement, unless otherwise permitted by SPINCO. If SPINCO authorizes the use of the Special Equipment for other products, AstraZeneca and SPINCO shall mutually agree upon a credit in the reasonable amount of prorated cost(s) of the Special Equipment (based on relative time of usage for each product).

15.

If all or any part of any such provision is held to be or at any time becomes to any extent invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason under any enactment or rule of law, it shall to that extent be deemed not to form part of this Supply Agreement but (except to that extent in the case of that provision) it and all other provisions of this Supply Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and their validity, legality and enforceability shall not be affected or impaired as a result, subject to the operation of this Clause 23.4 not negating the commercial intent and purpose of the Parties under this Supply Agreement.

Headings. The headings used in this Supply Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and do not define or limit the provisions hereof.

23.6.

Assignment. No Party may assign or transfer this Supply Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder, directly or indirectly (by operation of Law or otherwise), without the prior written approval of the other Party and any attempted assignment without such required approval shall be null, void and of no effect; provided, however, that (a) AstraZeneca may assign or delegate any or all of its rights, interests or obligations hereunder to an Affiliate of AstraZeneca or to any successor in interest (whether by merger, acquisition, asset purchase or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business to which this Supply Agreement relates, and may delegate any or all of its obligations hereunder to subcontractors, in each case, without SPINCO’s prior written approval, and (b) SPINCO may assign its rights, interests, and obligations hereunder (in whole and not in part) to a wholly owned Affiliate of SPINCO without AstraZeneca’s prior written approval. In addition, following the earlier to occur of (c) the consummation in full of the Milestone Closing (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement), and (d) the consummation of a Qualified IPO (as defined in the Restated

Certificate (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement)), SPINCO may assign its applicable rights, interests, and obligations hereunder related to the Product to a Third Party without AstraZeneca’s prior written approval, so long as (i) such assignment shall be in connection with the divestment by SPINCO of all or substantially all of the assets relating to the Product (whether by asset purchase or exclusive out-license), (ii) in connection therewith, SPINCO also assigns to such Third Party its applicable rights, interests, and obligations under the other Transaction Agreements related to the Product, and (iii) proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of SPINCO shall succeed to SPINCO’s applicable rights and obligations set forth herein and therein. Furthermore, if SPINCO or any of its successors or assigns (e) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (f) transfers, licenses or conveys all or substantially all of its rights and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, SPINCO may assign its rights, interests and obligations hereunder (in whole and not in part) to such Person without the prior written approval of AstraZeneca so long as in connection therewith SPINCO (i) also assigns to such Person all of its applicable rights, interests, and obligations under the other Transaction Agreements, and (ii) ensures that proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of SPINCO shall succeed to SPINCO’s rights and obligations set forth in this Supply Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, no assignment or succession pursuant to this Clause 23.6 shall relieve the assigning Party or predecessor Party of its obligations hereunder. Upon any permitted assignment, the references in this Supply Agreement to a Party shall also apply to any such assignee unless the context otherwise requires. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event a Party assigns its rights or obligations under this Supply Agreement or otherwise makes payments from a jurisdiction other than the jurisdiction in which such Party is organized (each, an “Assignment”), and immediately after such Assignment the amount of Tax required to be withheld on any payment pursuant to this Supply Agreement is greater than the amount of such Tax that would have been required to have been withheld absent such Assignment, then such increased withholding tax shall be borne by the Party making such Assignment.

23.7.

(a)

AstraZeneca shall have the right to subcontract, in whole or in part, the Manufacturing and supply of the Supplied Products and the performances of the Services.

(b)

Each Party remains responsible for the acts or omissions of its Affiliates or Third Parties to whom it subcontracts or delegates any of its obligations, as if they were its own.

23.8.

No License. Nothing in this Supply Agreement shall be deemed to constitute the grant of any license or other right in either Party to or in respect of any product, patent, trademark, Confidential Information, trade secret or other data or any other intellectual property of the other Party except as expressly set forth herein (including in Clause 13.7(b)).

23.9.

(b)

Except as provided in Clause 23.9(a) and except for any assignment under Clause 23.6, none of the provisions of this Supply Agreement shall be for the benefit of or enforceable by any Third Party, including any creditor of either Party hereto. No such Third Party shall obtain any right under any provision of this Supply Agreement or shall by reasons of any such provision make any claim in respect of any debt, liability or obligation (or otherwise) against either Party hereto.

23.10.

Joint Drafting. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Supply Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Supply Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring either Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Supply Agreement.

23.11.

Entire Agreement. This Supply Agreement, and any agreement or document referred to in it, contains the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Supply Agreement, and supersedes all previous agreements and understandings between the Parties with respect to that subject matter. Each Party acknowledges that, in entering into this Supply Agreement and the agreements and documents referred to in it, it does not rely on any statement, representation, assurance or warranty (whether it was made negligently or innocently) of any person (whether a Party to this Supply Agreement or not) which is not expressly set out in this Supply Agreement or those documents (a “Representation”), and that it shall have no cause of action against the other Party arising out of any Representation except in respect of any fraudulent misrepresentation by the other Party. Each Party acknowledges that its only right and remedy in relation to any representation, warranty or undertaking made or given in connection with this Supply Agreement shall be for breach of the terms and conditions of this Supply Agreement and each Party hereby waives all other rights and remedies (including those in tort or arising under statute) in relation to any such representation, warranty or undertaking.
