If Patheon does not remain in material compliance, the Annual Minimum will no longer apply in addition to any other remedies the Client may have under this Agreement. In performing the Manufacturing Services, Patheon and Client agree that:

(a) Use of Active Materials and Components. Patheon will use the Active Materials and Components to manufacture Products in accordance with this Agreement. Patheon will not use the Active Materials, any Client-Supplied Components or any other Components paid for by Client for any other use or purpose. Patheon will use all Active Materials and Components on a first-to-expire, first-to-use basis in manufacturing Products under this Agreement.

(b) Quality Control and Quality Assurance. Patheon will perform the quality control and quality assurance testing specified in the Quality Agreement.

The Batch documents, including, but not limited to, Batch production records, lot packaging/labeling records, equipment set up control, operating parameters, investigation/non-conformances, and data printouts, raw material data, and laboratory notebooks will be the exclusive property of Client. But any intellectual property comprised of the form and style of those Batch documents are the exclusive property of Patheon and Patheon will not be obligated to disclose to Client confidential or proprietary information of Third Parties contained in any lab notebooks that is unrelated to the Manufacturing Services. Subject to the foregoing, Patheon will provide any information reasonably required by Client to perform, if required, a Technology Transfer or if requested by a Regulatory Authority in a redacted form at Client’s expense. Except for Patheon Intellectual Property, all information contained in the Batch documents, including, but not limited to specific Product related information, is Client property.

(c) Components. Patheon will purchase (with the exception of Client-Supplied Components) and test all Components at Patheon’s expense and as required by the Product Agreement in accordance with the Specifications and the Quality Agreement.

(d) Stability Testing. Patheon will conduct stability testing on the Products as part of the Manufacturing Services provided hereunder. Patheon will perform this testing in accordance with the protocols set out in the Quality Agreement and the Specifications for the separate fees and during the time periods set out in Schedule C to a Product Agreement, if applicable. Patheon will not make any changes to these testing protocols without prior written approval from Client. If a confirmed stability test failure occurs, Patheon will notify Client within one Business Day, after which Patheon and Client will jointly determine the proceedings and methods to be undertaken to investigate the cause of the failure in accordance with the Quality Agreement, including which Party will bear the cost of the investigation. Patheon will not be liable for these costs unless it has failed to perform the Manufacturing Services in accordance with the Quality Agreement, Specifications, cGMPs or Applicable Laws. Patheon will give Client all stability test data and results (including a final report) at Client’s request within […***…] Business Days, upon completion of the testing.

(e) Packaging. Patheon will package the Products as set out in the Specifications and the applicable master packaging records approved by Client. Client will be responsible for the cost of artwork development, as applicable. Patheon will determine and imprint the Batch numbers and expiration dates for each Product shipped. The expiration dates must be determined in accordance with the Specifications. The Batch numbers and expiration dates will be affixed on the Products and on the shipping carton of each Product as outlined in the Specifications and as required by the Quality Agreement, cGMPs and Applicable Laws. Client may, in its sole discretion, make changes to labels, product inserts, and other packaging for the Products. Those changes will be submitted by Client to all applicable Regulatory Authorities. Client will be responsible for the cost of labelling obsolescence when changes occur, as contemplated in Section 4.4. Patheon’s name will not appear on the label or anywhere else on the Products unless: (i) required by any Applicable Laws; or (ii) Patheon consents in writing to the use of its name.

(f) Active Materials and Client-Supplied Components. At least […***…] before the scheduled production date, Client will deliver the Active Materials and any Client-Supplied Components to the Manufacturing Site DDP, in sufficient quantity to enable Patheon to manufacture the desired quantities of Product and to ship Product on the Delivery Date. Upon receipt of the Active Materials, Patheon will test all Active Materials in accordance with the provisions of the Product Agreement and in accordance with the applicable Quality Agreement. If the Active Materials and/or Client-Supplied Components are not received […***…] before the scheduled production date, Patheon may delay the shipment of Product by the same number of days as the delay in receipt of the Active Materials and/or Client-Supplied Components. But if Patheon is unable to manufacture Product to meet this new shipment date due to prior Third Party production commitments, Patheon may delay the shipment until a later date as agreed to by the Parties, but Patheon will make commercially reasonable efforts to make the shipment as soon as possible. All shipments of Active Material will be accompanied by Certificate(s) of Analysis provided by Client, confirming the identity and purity of the Active Materials and its compliance with the Active Material Specifications set forth in the Product Agreement.

(g) Bill Back Items. Bill Back Items purchased by Patheon will be charged to Client at Patheon’s actual and reasonable cost plus a […***…]% handling fee for Bill Back Items that cost less than $5,000 and a […***…]% handling fee for Bill Back Items that cost $5,000 or more, but Client must give prior written approval for the purchase of all Bill Back items. Patheon will use commercially reasonable efforts to order Bill Back Items in amounts to minimize the handling fee.

(h) Handling and Storage. Patheon will store at no cost to Client inventory to support […***…] months of production per the forecast of the Active Material and Client-Supplied Components in a controlled and monitored environment and at appropriate conditions in accordance with Specifications, the Quality Agreement, and Applicable Laws.

 

2.2 Active Material Yield.

(a) Reporting. Patheon will give Client a monthly inventory report of the Active Materials held by Patheon within five Business Days of the end of the most recent monthly using the inventory report form set out in Exhibit B, which will contain the following information for the month:

Quantity Received: The total quantity of Active Materials that complies with the Specifications and is received at the Manufacturing Site during the applicable month (“Quantity Received”).

Quantity Dispensed: The total quantity of Active Materials dispensed at the Manufacturing Site during the applicable month (“Quantity Dispensed”). The Quantity

 

***Confidential Treatment Requested

- 11 -


Master Manufacturing Services Agreement

 

 

Dispensed is calculated by adding the Quantity Received to the inventory of Active Materials that complies with the Specifications and is held by Patheon at the beginning of the applicable month, less the inventory of Active Materials that complies with the Specifications and is held by Patheon at the end of the month. The Quantity Dispensed will only include Active Materials received and dispensed in commercial manufacturing of Products and will not include any (i) Active Materials that must be retained by Patheon as samples, (ii) Active Materials contained in Product that must be retained as samples, (iii) Active Materials used in testing (if applicable), and (iv) Active Materials received or dispensed in technical transfer activities or development activities during the applicable period, including without limitation, any regulatory, stability, validation or test Batches manufactured during the applicable period, in each case of clauses (i) through (iv) in accordance with this Agreement.

Quantity Converted: The total amount of Active Materials contained in the Product manufactured with the Quantity Dispensed (including any additional Product produced in accordance with Section 6.3(a) or 6.3(b)), delivered by Patheon, and not rejected, recalled or returned in accordance with Section 6.1 or 6.2 because of Patheon’s failure to perform the Manufacturing Services in accordance with Specifications, cGMPs, and Applicable Laws.

Client acknowledges that, if there is no change in this information from one month to the next month, the report will reflect that.

Within […***…] days after the end of each Year, Patheon will prepare an annual reconciliation of Active Materials on the reconciliation report form set forth in Exhibit C including the calculation of the “Actual Annual Yield” or “AAY” for the Product at each Manufacturing Site during the Year. AAY is the percentage of the Quantity Dispensed that was converted to Product and is calculated as follows:

 

Quantity Converted during the Year ×    100%
Quantity Dispensed during the Year   

After Patheon has produced a minimum of […***…] successful commercial production Batches of Product and has produced commercial production Batches for at least […***…] months at the Manufacturing Site (collectively, the “Target Yield Determination Batches”), the Parties will agree on the target yield for the Product at the Manufacturing Site (each, a “Target Yield”). The Target Yield will be revised annually to reflect the actual manufacturing experience as agreed to by the Parties.

Additionally, promptly following production of the validation Batches, but prior to production of the […***…] Target Yield Determination Batches described above, the Parties will agree to an interim Target Yield that will apply before determination of the Target Yield set out above, based on data from production of the validation Batches. Promptly following production of the first […***…] Target Yield Determination Batches described above, the Parties will agree to an updated interim Target Yield that will apply before determination of the Target Yield set out above, based on data from production of the first […***…] Target Yield Determination Batches.

(b) Shortfall Calculation. If the Actual Annual Yield falls more than […***…]% below the respective Target Yield in a Year, then the shortfall for the Year (the “Shortfall”) will be calculated as follows:

 

***Confidential Treatment Requested

- 12 -


Master Manufacturing Services Agreement

 

 

Shortfall = [(Target Yield – […***…]%) – AAY] * Active Materials Credit Value * Quantity Dispensed

(c) Credit for Shortfall. If there is a Shortfall for a Product in a Year, then Patheon will credit Client’s account for the amount of the Shortfall not later than […***…] days after the end of the Year.

Each credit under this Section 2.2(c) will be summarized on the reconciliation report form set forth in Exhibit C. Upon expiration or termination of a Product Agreement, any remaining credit owing under this Section 2.2 will be paid to Client within […***…] days of the expiration or termination of the Product Agreement. The Annual Shortfall, if any, will be disclosed by Patheon on the reconciliation report form.

(d) Maximum Credit. Patheon’s liability for Active Materials calculated in accordance with this Section 2.2 for any Product Agreement in a Year will not exceed, in the aggregate, the Maximum Credit Value set forth in Schedule D to the Product Agreement.

(e) No Material Breach. It will not be a material breach of this Agreement by Patheon under Section 8.2(a) if the Actual Annual Yield is less than the Target Yield unless the Actual Annual Yield is more than […***…]% below the Target Yield.

ARTICLE 3

CLIENT’S OBLIGATIONS

 

3.1 Payment.

Client will pay Patheon for performing the Manufacturing Services in accordance with this Agreement according to the Prices specified in Schedules B and C in a Product Agreement. These Prices may be subject to adjustment under Sections 4.2 and 4.3 of this Agreement. Client will also pay Patheon for any Bill Back Items as provided in Section 2.1(g).

 

3.2 Active Materials and Qualification of Additional Sources of Supply.

Client will at its sole cost and expense, deliver the Active Materials to Patheon (in accordance with Section 2.1(f)). If applicable, Patheon and the Client will reasonably cooperate to permit the import of the Active Materials to the Manufacturing Site. Client’s obligation will include obtaining the proper release of the Active Materials from the applicable Customs Agency and Regulatory Authority. Client or Client’s designated broker will be the “Importer of Record” for Active Materials imported to the Manufacturing Site. The Active Materials will be held by Patheon on behalf of Client as set forth in this Agreement. The Active Materials will at all times remain the property of Client. Patheon will ensure that the Active Materials will not become subject to any encumbrances, liens or other third-party claims while in Patheon’s possession. Any Active Materials received by Patheon will only be used by Patheon to perform the Manufacturing Services.

If Client asks Patheon to qualify an additional source for the Active Material or any Component, Patheon will evaluate the Active Material or Component to be supplied by the additional source to determine if it is suitable for use in the Product. The Parties will agree on the scope of work to be performed by Patheon at Client’s cost. For an Active Material, this work at a minimum will include:

 

***Confidential Treatment Requested

- 13 -


Master Manufacturing Services Agreement

 

 

  (a) laboratory testing to confirm the Active Material meets existing specifications;

 

  (b) manufacture of an experimental Batch of Product that will be placed on three months accelerated stability; and

 

  (c) manufacture of three full-scale validation Batches that will be placed on concurrent stability (one Batch may be the registration Batch if manufactured at full scale).

Section 6.3(c) will apply to all Product manufactured using the newly approved Active Material or Component because of the limited material characterization that is performed on additional sources of supply.

ARTICLE 4

CONVERSION FEES AND COMPONENT COSTS

 

4.1 First Year Pricing.

The tiered Price and annual stability Price for the Products through December 31, 2015 are listed in Schedules B and C in a Product Agreement and are subject to the adjustments set forth in Sections 4.2 and 4.3.

 

4.2 Price Adjustments – Subsequent Years’ Pricing.

Beginning January 1, 2016, Patheon may adjust the Price effective January 1st of each Year as follows:

(a) Manufacturing and Stability Testing Costs. For Products manufactured in the United States or Puerto Rico, Patheon may adjust the conversion component of Price for inflation, based upon the preliminary number for any increase or decrease in the Producer Price Index pcu325412325412 for Pharmaceutical Preparation Manufacturing published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics (“PPI”) in August of the preceding Year compared to the final number for the same month of the Year prior to that, unless the Parties otherwise agree in writing. On or before November 30th of each Year, Patheon will give Client a statement setting forth the calculation for the inflation adjustment to be applied in calculating the Price for the next Year. But Client will have the right to dispute the calculation in good faith and the existing Prices will continue to apply until the dispute is resolved. If necessary, the Price will be retroactively adjusted for the applicable period after the dispute is resolved. For Products manufactured outside the United States or Puerto Rico, Patheon may similarly adjust the Price for inflation using an equivalent inflation index to be agreed by the Parties in a Product Agreement.

(b) Component Costs. Patheon may increase or, if the average price of the Component costs decreases, Patheon will decrease the Price for the next Year to pass through the actual additional or reduced Component costs. In November of each Year, Patheon will give Client reasonably detailed information about the increase or decrease in Component costs which will be applied to the calculation of the Price for the next Year to reasonably demonstrate that the Price increase or decrease is justified. But Patheon will not be required to give information to Client that is subject to obligations of confidentiality between Patheon and its suppliers. But, at Client’s request, Patheon will allow an independent third party auditor to review the information supporting the increase or decrease in Component costs and confirm that the information reasonably demonstrates that the Price increase or decrease is justified and reasonable.

 

- 14 -


Master Manufacturing Services Agreement

 

 

(c) Pricing Basis. Client acknowledges that the Price in any Year is quoted based upon the Minimum Order Quantity and the Annual Volume specified in Schedule B to a Product Agreement. The Price is subject to change if the specified Minimum Order Quantity changes or if the Annual Volume is not ordered in a Year. For greater clarity, if Patheon and Client agree that the Minimum Order Quantity will be reduced or the Annual Volume in the lowest tier will not be ordered in a Year whether as a result of a decrease in estimated Annual Volume or otherwise and, as a result of the reduction, Patheon demonstrates to Client’s reasonable satisfaction that its costs to perform the Manufacturing Services or to acquire the Components for the Product will increase or decrease on a per unit basis (including the amount of the increase), then Patheon may increase or decrease the Price by an amount sufficient to absorb the documented increased or reduced costs. On or before November 1st of each Year, Patheon will give Client a statement setting forth the information to be applied in calculating those cost increases or decreases for the next Year. But Patheon will not be required to give information to Client that is subject to obligations of confidentiality between Patheon and its suppliers. But, at Client’s request, Patheon will allow an independent third party auditor to review the information supporting the increase in Component costs and confirm that the information reasonably demonstrates that the Price increase is justified.

(d) Adjustments Due to Currency Fluctuations. If the Parties agree in a Product Agreement to invoice in a currency other than the local currency for the Manufacturing Site, Patheon will adjust the Price to reflect currency fluctuations in accordance with this Section 4.2(d). If the Set Exchange Rate for a given Year has changed, the adjustment will be calculated after all other annual Price adjustments under this Section 4.2 have been made. The adjustment will proportionately reflect the increase or decrease, if any, in the Set Exchange Rate compared to the Set Exchange Rate established for the prior Year or the Initial Set Exchange Rate, as the case may be. An example of the calculation of the price adjustment (for a Canadian Manufacturing Site invoiced in USD) is set forth in Exhibit D.

(e) Tier Pricing (if applicable). The pricing in Schedule B of a Product Agreement is set forth in Annual Volume tiers based upon the Client’s volume forecasts under Section 5.1. The Client will be invoiced during the Year for the unit price set forth in the Annual Volume tier based on the […***…] month forecast provided in September of the previous Year. Within 30 days of the end of each Year or of the termination of the Agreement, Patheon will send Client a reconciliation of the actual volume of Product ordered by the Client during the Year with the pricing tiers. If Client has overpaid during the Year, Patheon will issue a credit to the Client for the amount of the overpayment within 45 days of the end of the Year or will issue payment to the Client for the overpayment within 45 days of the termination of the Agreement. If Client has underpaid during the Year, Patheon will issue an invoice to the Client under Section 5.6 for the amount of the underpayment within 45 days of the end of the Year or termination of the Agreement. If Client disagrees with the reconciliation, the Parties will work in good faith to resolve the disagreement amicably. If the Parties are unable to resolve the disagreement within 30 days, the matter will be handled under Section 12.1.

For all Price adjustments under this Section 4.2, Patheon will deliver to Client on or before November 30th of each Year a revised Schedule B to the Product Agreement to be effective for Product delivered on or after the first day of the next Year, which revised Schedule B must be approved in writing by Client before it becomes binding on the Parties. Client’s approval must not be unreasonably withheld.

4.3 Price Adjustments – Current Year Pricing.

During any Year, the Prices set out in Schedule B of a Product Agreement will be adjusted as follows:

Extraordinary Increases or Decreases in Component Costs. If, at any time, market conditions result in Patheon’s cost of Components being materially greater or less than the cost on which the current Price is based, then the Parties will adjust the Price for any affected Product that reflects the increased or decreased Component costs. Changes materially greater than normal forecasted increases or decreases will have occurred if: (i) the cost of a Component increases or decreases by […***…]% of the cost for that Component upon which the most recent fee quote was based; or (ii) the aggregate cost for all Components required to manufacture a Product increases or decreases by […***…]% of the total Component costs for the Product upon which the most recent fee quote was based. If Component costs have been previously adjusted to reflect an increase or decrease in the cost of one or more Components, the adjustments set out in (i) and (ii) above will operate based on the last cost adjustment for the Components.

For a Price adjustment under this Section 4.3, Patheon will deliver to Client a revised Schedule B to the Product Agreement and budgetary pricing information, adjusted Component costs or other documents reasonably sufficient to demonstrate that a Price adjustment is justified, to Client’s reasonable satisfaction. Client will have the right to dispute any Price adjustment in good faith, and for the duration of the dispute, the existing Prices will continue to apply. If necessary, the Price will be retroactively adjusted for the applicable period after the dispute is resolved. At Client’s request, Patheon will allow an independent Third Party auditor to review the information supporting the increase or decrease in Component costs and confirm that the information reasonably demonstrates that the Price increase or decrease is justified and reasonable. Patheon will have no obligation to deliver any supporting documents that are subject to obligations of confidentiality between Patheon and its suppliers. For an undisputed Price adjustment, the revised Price will be effective for any Product delivered on or after the first day of the month following Client’s receipt of the revised Schedule B to the Product Agreement. If the Price is revised pursuant to this Section 4.3, it will not be revised subsequently pursuant to Section 4.2(b) with respect to the same increased Component costs.

 

4.4 Adjustments Due to Technical Changes.

Amendments to the Specifications or the Quality Agreement requested by Client will only be implemented following a technical and cost review that Patheon will perform at Client’s cost, and are subject to Client and Patheon reaching agreement on any Price changes required because of the amendment. Amendments to the Specifications, the Quality Agreement, or the Manufacturing Site requested by Patheon will only be implemented following the written approval of Client. Upon receiving notice of a request by Client for any such amendments, Patheon will promptly advise Client in writing of any scheduling adjustments, any cost increases or decreases or other changes that may result from the change, and (a) will use its best efforts to make any change identified in the Client request that is in response to a regulatory or safety issue pertaining to the Product, and (b) will use commercially reasonable efforts to implement any other change identified in a Client request by the date requested by Client, or as soon thereafter as it is commercially reasonable. If Client accepts a proposed Price change, the proposed change in the Specifications will be implemented, and the Price change will become effective, only for those orders of Products that are manufactured under the revised Specifications. In addition, Client agrees to purchase, at Patheon’s actual cost (including all reasonable costs incurred by Patheon for the purchase and handling of the Inventory), all Inventory used under the “old” Specifications and purchased or maintained by Patheon in order to fill Firm Orders or under Section 5.2, but only to the

 

***Confidential Treatment Requested

Master Manufacturing Services Agreement

 

 

extent the Inventory can no longer be used under the revised Specifications. Open purchase orders for Components no longer required under any revised Specifications that were placed by Patheon with suppliers in order to fill Firm Orders or under Section 5.2 will be cancelled where possible, and if the orders may not be cancelled without penalty, will, at Client’s sole discretion, be assigned to and satisfied by Client or cancelled by Patheon and Client will reimburse Patheon for any penalty it incurs due to the cancellation.

 

4.5 Multi-Country Packaging Requirements.

If Client decides to have Patheon perform Manufacturing Services for the Product for countries outside the Territory, then Client will inform Patheon of the packaging requirements for each such country and Patheon will prepare a quotation for consideration by Client of any additional costs for Components (other than Client-Supplied Components) and the change over fees for the Product destined for each such country. The agreed additional packaging requirements and related packaging costs and change over fees will be set out in a written amendment to this Agreement.

ARTICLE 5

ORDERS, SHIPMENT, INVOICING, PAYMENT

 

5.1 Orders and Forecasts.

(a) Rolling […***…] Month Forecast. When each Product Agreement is executed, Client will give Patheon a non-binding […***…] month forecast of the volume of Product that Client expects to order in the first […***…] months of commercial manufacture of the Product. This forecast will then be updated by Client on or before the […***…] day of each month on a rolling forward basis. Client will update the forecast forthwith if it determines that the volumes estimated in the most recent forecast have changed by more than […***…]%. The most recent […***…] month forecast will prevail.

(b) Firm Orders for Initial Manufacturing Month. At least […***…] months before the start of commercial manufacture of the Product, Client will update the rolling forecast for the first […***…] months of manufacture of the Product (the “Initial Manufacturing Period”). Subject to the provisions of Section 5.1(c), the first month of this updated forecast (“Initial Manufacturing Month”) will constitute a firm written order in the form of a purchase order or otherwise (“First Firm Order”) by Client to purchase and, when accepted by Patheon, for Patheon to manufacture the quantity of the Product. If manufacturing has not started, Client may cancel any Batches from the First Firm Order at a cost of $[…***…] per cancelled Batch per month until manufacturing starts, if notice of cancellation is received by Patheon […***…] days or more before the scheduled Delivery Date under the First Firm Order. If manufacturing has not started, Client may cancel any Batches from the First Firm Order if notice of cancellation is received by Patheon more than […***…] days but fewer than […***…] days before the scheduled Delivery Date under the First Firm Order, but Client will pay Patheon $[…***…] for each cancelled Batch. The Parties agree that this payment will be considered liquidated damages for Patheon’s loss of manufacturing capacity due to the Client’s cancellation of manufacturing and will not be considered a penalty. If the First Firm Order is changed or adjusted as described above, then the initial rolling […***…] month forecast will also be adjusted as necessary.

(c) Firm Orders Thereafter. Before and during the Initial Manufacturing Period, and on a rolling basis during the term of the Product Agreement, Client will issue an updated […***…] month forecast on

 

***Confidential Treatment Requested

- 17 -


Master Manufacturing Services Agreement

 

 

or before the […***…] day of each month. This forecast will start on the first day of the next month. The first […***…] months of this updated forecast will be considered binding firm orders. But the initial order related to the launch of each Product will not be binding until the Client receives approval from the FDA to market the applicable Product. Concurrent with the delivery of the applicable forecast, Client will issue a firm written order for the first […***…] months of the forecast in the form of a purchase order or otherwise (“Firm Order”) by Client to purchase and, when accepted by Patheon, for Patheon to manufacture and deliver the agreed quantity of the Products as set forth in the Firm Order. The Delivery Date specified in the Firm Order will not be less than …***… days following the date that the Firm Order is submitted. Firm Orders submitted to Patheon will specify Client’s purchase order number, quantities by Product type, monthly delivery schedule, and any other elements necessary to ensure the timely manufacture and shipment of the Products. Upon Patheon’s acceptance of a Firm Order, the quantities of Products ordered in the Firm Order will be firm and binding on the Parties and may only be reduced by written agreement of the Parties.

(d) […***…] Year Forecast. On or before the […***…] day of May of each Year, Client will give Patheon a written non-binding […***…]-year forecast, broken down by Quarters […***…], of the volume of each Product Client then anticipates will be required to be manufactured and delivered to Client during the […***…]-year period.

(e) Acceptance of Firm Order. Patheon will accept Firm Orders by sending an acknowledgement to Client within […***…] Business Days of its receipt of the Firm Order. The acknowledgement will include, subject to confirmation from the Client, the Delivery Date for the Product ordered. The Delivery Date may be amended by written agreement of the Parties or as set forth in Section 2.1(f) or 5.1(b). If Patheon fails to send an acknowledgement to Client within the applicable […***…] Business Day period, then the Firm Order will be deemed to have been accepted by Patheon. Patheon will accept Firm Orders submitted in accordance with this Agreement. If Patheon rejects a Firm Order submitted in accordance with this Agreement, without limiting Client’s other rights and remedies hereunder, Client may obtain the Product from another supplier, and this Product will not be included for purposes of calculating the Annual Minimum under this Agreement, and the Annual Minimum will automatically be reduced by […***…]%. If Patheon rejects two or more Firm Orders in a […***…]-month period, the Annual Minimum will no longer apply.

 

5.2 Reliance by Patheon.

(a) Client understands and acknowledges that Patheon will rely on the Firm Orders and rolling forecasts submitted under Sections 5.1(a) and (b) in ordering the Components (other than Client-Supplied Components) required to meet the Firm Orders. In addition, Client understands that to ensure an orderly supply of the Components, Patheon may want to purchase the Components in reasonable volumes to meet the production requirements for Products during part or all of the forecasted periods referred to in Section 5.1(a) or to meet the production requirements of any longer period agreed to in writing by Patheon and Client. Accordingly, Client authorizes Patheon to purchase Components in quantities reasonably needed to satisfy the Manufacturing Services requirements for Products for the first […***…] months contemplated in the most recent forecast given by Client under Section 5.1(a). Patheon may make other purchases of Components to meet Manufacturing Services requirements for longer periods if agreed to in writing by the Parties. The Client will give Patheon written authorization to order Components for any launch quantities of Product requested by Client which will be considered a Firm Order when accepted by Patheon. If Components ordered by Patheon under Firm Orders or this Section 5.2(a) are not included in finished Products manufactured for Client within […***…] months after the forecasted month for which the purchases have been made (or for a longer period as the Parties may agree) or if the Components have expired during the period, then Client will pay to Patheon its costs therefor (including all reasonable costs incurred by Patheon for the purchase and handling of the Components). But if these

 

***Confidential Treatment Requested

- 18 -


Master Manufacturing Services Agreement

 

 

Components are used in Products subsequently manufactured for Client or in third party products manufactured by Patheon, Client will receive credit for any costs of those Components previously paid to Patheon by Client or, at Client’s election, a refund in an amount equal to these costs. On a Quarterly basis, Patheon will provide a report summarizing the Inventory held by Patheon.

(b) If Client fails to take possession or arrange for the destruction of Components purchased by Patheon in accordance with Section 5.2(a) within 12 months of purchase or, in the case of finished Product that is not the subject of a Deficiency Notice, within three months of manufacture, Client will pay Patheon $100.00 per pallet, per month thereafter for storing the Components or finished Product. Storage fees for Components or Product which contain controlled substances or require refrigeration will be charged at $200.00 per pallet per month. Storage fees are subject to a one pallet minimum charge per month. Patheon may ship finished Product that is not the subject of a Deficiency Notice held by it longer than three months to the Client at Client’s expense on 14 days’ prior written notice to the Client in accordance with the Specifications.

 

5.3 Minimum Orders.

Client may only order Manufacturing Services for amounts of Products in multiples of the Minimum Order Quantities as set out in Schedule B to a Product Agreement.

 

5.4 Shipments.

Shipments of Products will be made EXW Patheon’s shipping point unless otherwise agreed in a Product Agreement. Risk of loss or of damage to Products will remain with Patheon until Patheon loads the Products onto the carrier’s vehicle for shipment at the shipping point at which time risk of loss or damage will transfer to Client. Patheon will, in accordance with Client’s instructions and as agent for Client, at Client’s risk, (i) arrange for shipping to be paid by Client and (ii) at Client’s expense, obtain any export license or other official authorization necessary to export the Products. Client will arrange for insurance and will select the freight carrier used by Patheon to ship Products and may monitor Patheon’s shipping and freight practices as they pertain to this Agreement. Products will be transported in accordance with the Specifications.

 

5.5 Late Delivery.

(a) Patheon will deliver Products ordered under a Firm Order on the applicable Delivery Date. The Parties agree that they will work together closely to expedite deliveries of Product, including, without limitation, any samples of Products and Products for initial launch, and manage the scheduling of the initial Product launch.

(b) If, after the Initial Manufacturing Period, Patheon is unable to deliver […***…]% of the quantity of a particular Product ordered under a Firm Order within […***…] days of the Delivery Date due to an act or omission by Patheon (a “Late Delivery”), Client will receive a credit from Patheon for the Late Delivery that will be applied against the purchase price under the next Firm Order. The credit will be […***…]% of the Price of the quantities of Product not delivered by Patheon under the Firm Order (i.e., Client Credit = [Quantity Ordered in the Firm Order – Actual Delivery Quantities of Product] * Price […***…]%). Patheon will make commercially reasonable efforts to replace the late Product within […***…] days. If, after the Initial Manufacturing Period, Patheon makes two or more Late Deliveries for the same Product in the same calendar Quarter, Client will receive an additional credit of […***…]% from Patheon for the Late Deliveries that will be applied against the purchase price under the next Firm Order. The total credit will be […***…]% of the Price of the quantities of Product not delivered by Patheon under the Firm Order (i.e., Client Credit = [Quantity Ordered in the Firm Order – Actual Delivery Quantities of Product] Price […***…]%. Without

 

***Confidential Treatment Requested

- 19 -


Master Manufacturing Services Agreement

 

 

limiting Client’s other rights or remedies in this Agreement, if Patheon makes two or more Late Deliveries within a […***…]-month period, the Annual Minimum will be reduced to […***…]%. In such case, for the remainder of the term of this Agreement, the Parties agree that Patheon will manufacture at least […***…]% of the Products manufactured by or on Client’s behalf for sale by Client in the Territory in a particular Year until Patheon has no Late Deliveries for a […***…] month period in which case the Annual Minimum will increase by […***…]% and by […***…]% in each sequential […***…] month period that there are no Late Deliveries up to a maximum of […***…]%. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Patheon makes two or more Late Deliveries within a […***…]-month period, the Parties will meet and agree on and implement a delivery improvement action plan within five Business Days. If, after the delivery improvement plan is in place, two additional Late Deliveries occur within a […***…]-month period, these Late Deliveries may be considered a material breach of this Agreement by Patheon under Section 8.2(a) and Patheon will not be allowed any further opportunity to remedy the material breach.

(c) A Late Delivery will not include any delay in shipment of Product caused by events outside of Patheon’s reasonable control, such as a Force Majeure Event, a delay in delivery of API or Materials, a delay in Product release approval from Client, inaccurate Client forecasts, or receipt of non-conforming API or Client-Supplied Components.

 

5.6 Invoices and Payment.

Invoices will be sent by fax or email to the fax number or email address given by Client to Patheon in writing. Invoices will be sent when the Product is manufactured and released by Patheon to the Client. Patheon will also submit to Client, with each shipment of Products, a duplicate copy of the invoice covering the shipment and the associated Delivery Documentation. Patheon will also give Client an invoice covering any Inventory or Components which are to be purchased by Client under Section 5.2 of this Agreement. All payments made that are associated with Inventory or Components will be credited against the Price of any Batch of Product that incorporates the Components and/or Inventory. Each invoice will also reflect any credit to Client under Section 5.2. Each invoice will, to the extent applicable, identify Client’s Manufacturing Services purchase order number, Product numbers, names and quantities, unit price, freight charges, Delivery Documentation and the total amount to be paid by Client. Client will pay all invoices within […***…] days of the date thereof. If any portion of an invoice is disputed, the Client will pay Patheon for the undisputed amount and the Parties will use good faith efforts to reconcile the disputed amount as soon as practicable, but in no case more than […***…] days.

ARTICLE 6

PRODUCT CLAIMS AND RECALLS

 

6.1 Product Claims.

(a) Product Claims. Client has the right to reject any shipment of Products or any portion thereof that does not conform to the Product Warranties set forth in Section 9.3(a) (“Non-Conforming Products”), without invalidating any portion of the shipment of Products that conforms to the Product Warranties. Client will inspect the Products manufactured by Patheon upon receipt at the third-party site agreed to by Patheon and Client and will give Patheon written notice (a “Deficiency Notice”) of all claims for Non-Conforming Products within […***…] days after Client’s receipt of the Product and the Delivery Documentation thereof (or, in the case of Latent Defect, within […***…] days after confirmation by Client, its Affiliate or any licensee, distributor or other Third Party but not after the expiration date of the Product). If Client fails to give Patheon the Deficiency Notice within the applicable […***…]- or […***…]-day period, then the delivery will be deemed to have been accepted by Client on the […***…] or […***…] day after delivery or confirmation, as applicable. Except as set out in Section 6.3, Patheon will have no liability for any Deviations for which it has not received notice within the applicable […***…]-day period except for a Latent Defect.

(b) Determination of Deficiency. Upon receipt of a Deficiency Notice, Patheon will have […***…] days to advise Client by notice in writing that it disagrees with the contents of the Deficiency Notice. Should Patheon fail to provide such notice to Client within the […***…] day period, then Patheon will be deemed to agree with the contents of the Deficiency Notice. If Client and Patheon fail to agree within […***…] days after Patheon’s notice to Client as to whether any Products identified in the Deficiency Notice are Non-Conforming Products, then the Parties will mutually select an independent laboratory or expert to evaluate if the Products are Non-Conforming Products. This evaluation will be binding on the Parties. If the independent laboratory or expert determines that any Products are Non-Conforming Products, Client may reject those Products in the manner contemplated in this Section 6.1 and Patheon will be responsible for the cost of the evaluation. If the independent laboratory determines that the Products conform to the Product Warranties, then Client will be deemed to have accepted delivery of the Products on the […***…] day after delivery (or, in the case of any defects not reasonably susceptible to discovery upon receipt of the Product, on the […***…] day after confirmation thereof by Client, but not after the expiration date of the Product) and Client will be responsible for the cost of the evaluation.

(c) Shortages. Claims for shortages in the amount of Products shipped by Patheon will be dealt with by reasonable agreement of the Parties.

 

6.2 Product Recalls and Returns.

(a) Records and Notice. Patheon and Client will each maintain records necessary to permit a Recall of any Products delivered to Client or customers of Client. Each Party will promptly notify the other by telephone to the contacts designated in the Quality Agreement (to be confirmed in writing) of any information which might affect the marketability, safety or effectiveness of the Products or which might result in the Recall or seizure of the Products within one Business Day. Upon receiving this notice or upon this discovery, each Party will stop making any further shipments of any Products in either Party’s possession or control until Client has made a decision as to whether a Recall or some other corrective action is necessary. The decision to initiate a Recall or to take some other corrective action, if any, will be made and implemented by Client.

 

***Confidential Treatment Requested

Master Manufacturing Services Agreement

 

 

(b) Recalls. If (i) any Regulatory Authority issues a directive, order or, following the issuance of a safety warning or alert about a Product, a written request that any Product be Recalled, (ii) a court of competent jurisdiction orders a Recall, or (iii) Client determines that any Product should be Recalled or that a “Dear Doctor” letter is required relating the restrictions on the use of any Product, Patheon will co-operate as reasonably required by Client, having regard to all Applicable Laws.

(c) Product Returns. Client will have the responsibility for handling customer returns of the Products. Patheon will give Client any assistance that Client may reasonably require to handle the returns including, if requested by Client, appropriate investigations.

 

6.3 Patheon’s Responsibility for Non-Conforming and Recalled Products.

(a) Non-Conforming Product. If Client rejects Products under Section 6.1, Client will not be required to pay for the Product under Section 3.1. Patheon will promptly, at Client’s election, either: (i) refund the amount paid for the Non-Conforming Products if Client previously paid for the Products, and the cost incurred by Client for the Bill Back Items and Client-Supplied Components used in the Products; (ii) offset the amount paid for the Non-Conforming Products, if Client previously paid for the Products, and the cost incurred by Client for the Bill Back Items and Client-Supplied Components used in the Products, against other amounts due to Patheon hereunder; or (iii) at Patheon’s sole expense (excluding expense to incur replacement Active Materials, but including the replacement of Client-Supplied Components and Bill Back Items), replace the Products with conforming Products without Client being liable for payment therefor under Section 3.1, contingent upon the receipt from Client of all Active Materials and Client-Supplied Components required for the manufacture of the replacement Products. For greater certainty, Patheon’s responsibility for any loss of Active Materials in Non-Conforming Product will be captured and calculated in the Active Materials Yield under Section 2.2.

(b) Recalled Product. If a Recall or return of Products results from, or arises out of, a failure by Patheon to perform the Manufacturing Services in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including the warranties set forth in Sections 9.3 and 9.4 or other negligence or willful misconduct of Patheon, Patheon will be responsible for the documented costs and out-of-pocket expenses of the Recall or return and will promptly, at the election of Client, either: (i) refund the amount paid for the Recalled or returned Products and the cost incurred by Client for the Bill Back Items and Client-Supplied Components used in the Products; (ii) offset the amount paid for the Recalled or returned Products and the cost incurred by Client for the Bill Back Items and Client-Supplied Components used in the Products, against other amounts due to Patheon hereunder; or (iii) replace the Recalled or returned Products with conforming Products, at Patheon’s sole expense (excluding expense to incur replacement Active Materials, but including the expense to obtain replacement Bill Back Items and Client-Supplied Components), as promptly as practical without Client being liable for payment therefor under Section 3.1, contingent upon the receipt from Client of all Active Materials and Client-Supplied Components required for the manufacture of the replacement Products. For greater certainty, Patheon’s responsibility for any loss of Active Materials in Recalled Product will be captured and calculated in the Active Materials Yield under Section 2.2. In all other circumstances, Recalls, returns, or other corrective actions will be made at Client’s cost and expense. For clarification, any refund of the amount paid by Client for the Recall or return of Products that is paid by Patheon subject to this Section 6.3(b) will not be considered a liability under, and therefore will not be subject to, Section 10.2(a).

(c) Product Rejection for Finished Product Specification Failure. Internal process specifications will be defined and agreed upon. If a Batch or portion of a Batch of Product does not meet a finished Product Specification despite Patheon’s assertion that it manufactured the Product in accordance with the agreed upon process specifications, the Batch production record, and Patheon’s standard operating procedures for manufacturing, the Parties agree that they will mutually select an

 

- 22 -


Master Manufacturing Services Agreement

 

 

independent laboratory or expert to evaluate if such laboratory or expert can determine why the Products do not meet a finished Product Specification. The evaluation will be binding on the Parties. If the independent laboratory or expert determines that the Product is Non-Conforming due to an act or omission by Patheon or does not otherwise comply with the Terms of the Agreement, Client may reject those Products in the manner contemplated by Section 6.1 and Patheon will be responsible for the cost of the evaluation. If the independent laboratory determines that the Patheon complied with the agreed upon process specifications, the Batch production record, and Patheon’s standard operating procedures and that the Product does not meet a finished Product specification, Client will be responsible for the cost of the evaluation and will pay Patheon the applicable fee per unit for the Non-Conforming Product. In which case, the API in the Non-Conforming Product will be included in the “Quantity Converted” for purposes of calculating the “Actual Annual Yield” under Section 2.2(a).

(d) Except as set forth in Sections 6.3(a) and (b) above, Patheon will not be liable to Client nor have any responsibility to Client for any deficiencies in, or other liabilities associated with, any Product manufactured by it (collectively, “Product Claims”). For greater clarity, Patheon will have no obligation for any Product Claims to the extent the Product Claim (i) is caused by deficiencies in the Specifications, the safety, efficacy, or marketability of the Products manufactured in accordance with this Agreement and conforming to the Specifications or any distribution thereof, (ii) results from a defect in a Component that is not reasonably discoverable by Patheon using the methods set forth in the Specifications or as otherwise provided in this Agreement, (iii) results from a defect in the Active Materials or Client-Supplied Components that is not reasonably discoverable by Patheon using the methods set forth in the Specifications or as otherwise provided in this Agreement, (iv) is caused by actions of Third Parties occurring after the Product is shipped by Patheon under Section 5.4, (v) is due to packaging design or labelling defects or omissions for which neither Patheon nor any of its Affiliates or its or their employees, agents or subcontractors has any responsibility, (vi) is due to any unascertainable reason despite Patheon having performed the Manufacturing Services in accordance with the Quality Agreement, Specifications, cGMPs, Applicable Laws, and the other terms of this Agreement, as determined by an independent laboratory or expert as set forth in Section 6.3(c) above; or (vii) is due to any other breach by Client of its obligations under this Agreement.

 

6.4 Disposition of Defective or Recalled Products.

Client will not dispose of any damaged, defective, returned, Non-Conforming or Recalled Products for which it intends to assert a claim against Patheon without Patheon’s prior written authorization to do so, which will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Alternatively, Patheon may instruct Client to return the Products to Patheon. Patheon will bear the cost of disposition (including any applicable storage fees or the cost of destruction) for any damaged, defective, returned or Recalled Products for which it bears responsibility under Section 6.1 or 6.3. In all other circumstances, Client will bear the cost of disposition, including all applicable fees for Manufacturing Services, for any damaged, defective, returned, or Recalled Products.

 

6.5 Healthcare Provider or Patient Questions and Complaints.

Client will have the sole responsibility for responding to questions and complaints from its customers. Questions or complaints received by Patheon from Client’s and its Affiliates’ and licensees’ customers, healthcare providers or patients will be promptly referred to Client. Patheon will co-operate as reasonably required to allow Client to determine the cause of and resolve any questions and complaints. This assistance will include follow-up investigations, including testing and any other assistance reasonably requested by Client. In addition, Patheon promptly (and in any event within the timelines specified in the Quality Agreement) will give Client all agreed upon information that will enable Client to respond properly to questions or complaints about the Products as set forth in the Quality Agreement.

 

- 23 -


Master Manufacturing Services Agreement

 

 

Client will bear all costs incurred under this Section 6.5, except to the extent the complaint resulted from a failure by Patheon to perform the Manufacturing Services in accordance with the Specifications, cGMPs, Applicable Laws, and the other terms of this Agreement, in which case those costs incurred under this Section 6.5 will be borne by Patheon.

 

6.6 Sole Remedy.

Except for the indemnity set forth in Section 10.3 and subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 10.1 and 10.2, the remedies described in this Article 6 will be Client’s sole remedy for any failure by Patheon to supply Products that conform to the Product Warranties.

ARTICLE 7

Each Party will forthwith upon execution of this Agreement appoint one of its employees to be a relationship manager responsible for liaison between the Parties. The relationship managers will meet not less than Quarterly to review the current status of the business relationship and manage any issues that have arisen.

 

7.2 Governmental Agencies.

Subject to Section 7.8, Patheon may communicate with any governmental agency, including but not limited to governmental agencies responsible for granting regulatory approval for the Products, regarding the Products only if, in the opinion of Patheon’s counsel, the communication is necessary to comply with the terms of this Agreement or the requirements of any Applicable Law and a representative of Client is present for a verbal communication or has reviewed and approved a written communication. Patheon will notify Client immediately upon and in any event within 24 hours after receiving any request from a Regulatory Authority for communication related to a Product.

 

7.3 Records and Accounting by Patheon.

Patheon will keep records of the manufacture, testing, and shipping of the Products (including evidence on the testing of raw materials, packaging and labeling materials as required by the Quality Agreement), and retain samples of the Products as are necessary to comply with applicable manufacturing regulatory requirements, as well as to assist with resolving Product complaints and other similar investigations. Copies of the records and samples will be retained for five years or one year following the date of Product expiry (whichever is longer), or longer if required by Applicable Laws, at which time Client will be contacted concerning the delivery and destruction of the documents and/or samples of Products at least 45 days prior to the destruction of the documents or samples. Patheon will not store these documents and/or samples beyond the time period set forth above.

 

7.4 Inspection of Financial Records.

Client or its designee may inspect Patheon reports and records relating to this Agreement during normal business hours and with reasonable advance notice of at least […***…] Business Days, but a Patheon representative must be present during the inspection. In addition, as more fully set forth in Section 4.2, Client will have the right to allow an independent third party auditor to review the information supporting the price adjustments made under Sections 4.2, 4.3 and 4.4.

7.5 Access.

Patheon will give Client reasonable access at agreed times to procedures and documentation relevant to the Product, and to the areas of the Manufacturing Site in which the Products are manufactured, stored, handled, or shipped, to permit Client to verify that the Manufacturing Services are being performed in accordance with the Specifications, cGMPs, Applicable Laws and the Quality Agreement. But, with the exception of “For-Cause” Audits, Client will be limited each Year to one cGMP-type audit, lasting no more than […***…] days, and involving no more than […***…] auditors. Client may request additional cGMP-type audits, additional audit days, or the participation of additional auditors subject to payment to Patheon of a fee of $5,000 for each additional audit day and $1,000 per audit day for each additional auditor. The right of access set forth in this Section 7.5 will not include a right to access or inspect Patheon’s financial records. In addition, upon the request of any Regulatory Authority having jurisdiction over the manufacture of Products hereunder, the Regulatory Authority will have access to observe, audit and inspect any Manufacturing Site and Patheon’s procedures used for the manufacture, release and stability testing, and/or warehousing of Products and to audit those facilities and procedures for compliance with cGMP and/or other regulatory requirements. Patheon specifically agrees to cooperate with any inspection by a Regulatory Authority, whether prior to or after Regulatory Approval of a Product, and to provide Client a copy of any inspection or audit report resulting from the inspection within three Business Days from receiving the report. Client may be present at the Facility for consultation during any such inspection.

 

7.6 Notification of Regulatory Inspections.

Patheon will notify Client within one Business Day of any inspection, receipt of notice of any inspection and/or any request for samples by any governmental agency specifically involving the Products. Patheon will also notify Client within three Business Days of receipt of any form 483’s or warning letters or any other significant regulatory action or finding which could directly or indirectly impact the regulatory status of the Products or Patheon’s ability to perform the Manufacturing Services. Within three Business Days of receipt, Patheon will provide Client with a reasonable description of the notifications and inspections and all supporting documentation, including, as applicable, all form 483’s and warning letters or similar warning or objection, responses and all other correspondence and discussions of the applicable Regulatory Authority, which should be redacted to protect the confidential information of Third Parties. Patheon will discuss with Client and consider in good faith any comments provided by Client on the proposed response. Additionally, Patheon will obtain Client’s prior approval of any such responses related to Product. Patheon will use commercially reasonable efforts to address and rectify any issues or problems in its manufacturing facility or procedures and any objections or warnings raised by the Regulatory Authority as soon as practicable and to continue to manufacture and supply to Client, in compliance with all Applicable Laws and the terms of this Agreement, the Products ordered by Client. After the filing of a response with the FDA or other Regulatory Authority, Patheon will notify Client of any further contacts with the Regulatory Authority relating to the subject matter of the response.

 

7.7 Reports.

Patheon will supply on an annual basis all Product data in its control, including release test results, complaint test results, and all investigations (in manufacturing, testing, and storage), that Client reasonably requires in order to complete any filing under any applicable regulatory regime, including any Annual Report that Client is required to file with the FDA or any other Regulatory Authority or other information related to the performance of the Manufacturing Services mandated by a Regulatory Authority. Patheon will promptly provide a copy of the Annual Product Review Report to the Client at no additional cost. Any additional report requested by Client beyond the scope of cGMPs and customary

FDA or other Regulatory Authority requirements will be subject to an additional fee to be agreed upon between Patheon and the Client.

 

7.8 Regulatory Filings.

(a) Regulatory Authority. Client will have the sole right and responsibility for filing all documents with all Regulatory Authorities and taking any other actions that may be required for the receipt and/or maintenance of Regulatory Authority approval for the manufacture, import, export, distribution, marketing, sale, pricing and/or reimbursement of the Products. Patheon will assist Client, to the extent consistent with Patheon’s obligations under this Agreement, to obtain Regulatory Authority approval for the commercial manufacture of all Products as quickly as reasonably possible. Client will provide copies of relevant sections of regulatory filings to Patheon that are necessary for Patheon to ensure compliance of the manufacturing processes to those submitted to Regulatory Authorities.

(b) Verification of Data. Prior to filing any documents with any Regulatory Authority that incorporate data generated by Patheon, Client will give Patheon a copy of the documents incorporating this data to give Patheon the opportunity to verify the accuracy and regulatory validity of those documents as they relate to Patheon generated data. Patheon requires […***…] days to perform this review but the Parties may agree to a shorter time for the review as needed, including as mandated by a Regulatory Authority. These documents will be Confidential Information of Client.

(c) Verification of CMC. Prior to filing with any Regulatory Authority any documentation which is or is equivalent to the FDA’s Chemistry and Manufacturing Controls (all such documentation herein referred to as “CMC”) related to any Marketing Authorization, such as a New Drug Application or Abbreviated New Drug Application, Client will give Patheon a copy of the CMC as well as all supporting documents which have been relied upon to prepare the CMC that directly relate to the Manufacturing Services provided by Patheon. This disclosure will permit Patheon to verify that the CMC accurately describes the work that Patheon has performed and the manufacturing processes that Patheon will perform under this Agreement. Patheon requires […***…] days to perform this review but the Parties may agree to a shorter time for the review as needed. Client will give Patheon copies of all FDA filings at the time of submission to the extent containing CMC information that directly relate to the Manufacturing Services provided by Patheon and may redact this information to protect the Confidential Information of any Third Party.

The Parties will work together to have the Deficiencies resolved prior to any pre-approval inspection.

(e) Client Responsibility. For clarity, the Parties agree that in reviewing the documents referred to in clause (b) above, Patheon’s role will be limited to verifying the accuracy of the description of the work undertaken or to be undertaken by Patheon. Subject to the foregoing, Patheon will not assume any responsibility for the accuracy of any application for receipt of an approval by a Regulatory Authority. The Client is solely responsible for the preparation and filing of the application for approval by the Regulatory Authority and any relevant costs will be borne by the Client.

(f) Inspection by Regulatory Authorities. If Client does not give Patheon the documents requested under clause (b) above within the time specified and if Patheon reasonably believes that Patheon’s standing with a Regulatory Authority may be jeopardized, Patheon may, in its sole discretion, delay or postpone any inspection by the Regulatory Authority until Patheon has reviewed the requested

(c) Client may terminate this Agreement as to any Product and the related Product Agreement upon at least 30 days’ prior written notice, if any Authority takes any action, or raises any objection, that prevents Client from importing, exporting, purchasing, or selling the Product, or Client (or its Affiliate or licensee) determines that for safety or efficacy reasons Client is not going to continue to develop or commercialize the Product. But if this occurs, Client must still fulfill all of its obligations under Section 8.4 below and under any Capital Equipment Agreement regarding the Product.

(d) Client may terminate this Agreement or a Product Agreement at any time upon written notice to Patheon, without limiting Client’s other rights or remedies under this Agreement, if any Authority takes any enforcement action regarding the Manufacturing Site that relates to the Product or could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the ability of Patheon to supply the Product.

(e) Patheon may terminate this Agreement or a Product Agreement upon 18 months’ prior written notice if Client assigns under Section 13.6 any of its rights under this Agreement or a Product Agreement to an assignee that, in the opinion of Patheon acting reasonably is a Patheon Competitor. But this time period will automatically be extended by an additional three months if, at 18 months after the notice, Client is working in good-faith to secure, and/or obtain required approvals for, another supplier.

 

8.3 Product Discontinuation; Other Causes for Termination by Client.

(a) Client will give at least six months’ advance notice if it intends to no longer order Manufacturing Services for a Product due to this Product’s discontinuance in the market. Upon expiration of the applicable six-month notice period, this Agreement will terminate with respect to the Product or, if the Product is the only Product subject to this Agreement, this Agreement will terminate in its entirety.

(b) Except for terminations under the other termination provisions of this Agreement (including Sections 8.2, 8.3(a), 9.4 and 13.7), Client will give at least 36 months’ advance notice if it intends to no longer order Manufacturing Services for a Product for any other reason. In such case, the Annual Minimum will be reduced by […***…]% beginning one year from the date of notice and each year thereafter. Upon expiration of the applicable 36 month period, at Client’s option, this Agreement will terminate with respect to the Product or, if the Product is the only Product subject to this Agreement, the Agreement will terminate in its entirety. Upon receipt of notice, Patheon will provide assistance to Client in a Technology Transfer. Except for a material breach of this Agreement by Patheon, Client will be responsible for all costs associated with the Technology Transfer. If the Technology Transfer is a result of a material breach of the Agreement by Patheon, each Party will be responsible for its own costs associated with the Technology Transfer. In all circumstances, Patheon will use at least commercially reasonable efforts to meet the timeline requested by Client.

 

8.4 Obligations on Termination.

If a Product Agreement is completed, expires, or is terminated in whole or in part for any reason, then:

 

  (a) Client will take delivery of and pay for all undelivered Products that are manufactured and/or packaged under a Firm Order and in compliance with the terms of this Agreement, at the price in effect at the time the Firm Order was placed;

 

  (b) Client will purchase, at Patheon’s actual cost (including all costs incurred by Patheon for the purchase and handling of the Inventory), the Inventory applicable to the Products which was purchased, produced and maintained by Patheon in contemplation of filling Firm Orders or in accordance with Section 5.2;

ARTICLE 11

CONFIDENTIALITY

 

11.1 Confidential Information.

Confidential Information” means any information disclosed by the Disclosing Party to the Recipient (whether disclosed in oral, written, electronic or visual form) that is non-public, confidential or proprietary including, without limitation, information relating to the Disclosing Party’s patent and trademark applications, process designs, process models, drawings, plans, designs, data, databases and extracts therefrom, formulae, methods, know-how and other intellectual property, its clients or client confidential information, finances, marketing, products and processes and all price quotations, manufacturing or professional services proposals, information relating to composition, proprietary technology, and all other information relating to manufacturing capabilities and operations. In addition, all analyses, compilations, studies, reports or other documents prepared by any Party’s Representatives containing the Confidential Information will be considered Confidential Information. Samples or materials provided hereunder as well as any and all information derived from the approved analysis of the samples or materials will also constitute Confidential Information. For the purposes of this ARTICLE 11, a Party or its Representative receiving Confidential Information under this Agreement is a “Recipient,” and a Party or its Representative disclosing Confidential Information under this Agreement is the “Disclosing Party.”

 

11.2 Use of Confidential Information.

The Recipient will use the Confidential Information solely for the purpose of meeting its obligations under this Agreement. The Recipient will keep the Confidential Information strictly confidential and will not disclose the Confidential Information in any manner whatsoever, in whole or in part, other than to those of its Representatives who (i) have a need to know the Confidential Information for the purpose of this Agreement; (ii) have been advised of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information and (iii) have obligations of confidentiality and non-use to the Recipient no less restrictive than those of this Agreement. Additionally, Client will have the right to disclose Confidential Information

 

- 33 -


Master Manufacturing Services Agreement

 

 

to sublicensees and/or other strategic partners or in connection with financings or similar transactions provided that the parties to whom Client discloses this information are bound by obligations of confidentiality and non-use no less restrictive than those of this Agreement. Recipient will protect the Confidential Information disclosed to it by using all reasonable precautions to prevent the unauthorized disclosure, dissemination or use of the Confidential Information, which precautions will in no event be less than those exercised by Recipient with respect to its own confidential or proprietary Confidential Information of a similar nature. The obligations of confidentiality and non-use set forth in this Article 11 will remain in effect for a period of seven years following the termination of this Agreement.

 

11.3 Exclusions.

The obligations of confidentiality will not apply to the extent that the information:

(a) is or becomes publicly known through no breach of this Agreement or fault of the Recipient or its Representatives;

(b) is in the Recipient’s possession at the time of disclosure by the Disclosing Party other than as a result of the Recipient’s breach of any legal obligation;

(c) is or becomes known to the Recipient on a non-confidential basis through disclosure by sources, other than the Disclosing Party, having the legal right to disclose the Confidential Information, provided that the other source is not known by the Recipient to be bound by any obligations (contractual, legal, fiduciary, or otherwise) of confidentiality to the Disclosing Party with respect to the Confidential Information;

(d) is independently developed by the Recipient without use of or reference to the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information as evidenced by Recipient’s written records; or

(e) is expressly authorized for release by the written authorization of the Disclosing Party.

Any combination of information which comprises part of the Confidential Information are not exempt from the obligations of confidentiality merely because individual parts of that Confidential Information were publicly known, in the Recipient’s possession, or received by the Recipient, unless the combination itself was publicly known, in the Recipient’s possession, or received by the Recipient.

 

11.4 Photographs and Recordings.

Neither Party will take any photographs or videos of the other Party’s facilities, equipment or processes, nor use any other audio or visual recording equipment (such as camera phones) while at the other Party’s facilities, without that Party’s express written consent.

 

11.5 Permitted Disclosure.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Recipient may disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to the extent required, as advised by counsel, in response to a valid order of a court or other governmental body or as required by law, regulation or stock exchange rule. But the Recipient will advise the Disclosing Party in advance of the disclosure to the extent practicable and permissible by the order, law, regulation or stock exchange rule and any other applicable law, will reasonably cooperate with the Disclosing Party, if required, in seeking an appropriate protective order or other remedy, and will otherwise continue to perform its obligations of confidentiality set out

 

- 34 -


Master Manufacturing Services Agreement

 

 

herein. If any public disclosure is required by law, the Parties will consult concerning the form of announcement prior to the public disclosure being made.

 

11.6 Marking.

The Disclosing Party agrees to use reasonable efforts to summarize in writing the content of any oral disclosure or other non-tangible disclosure of Confidential Information within 30 days of the disclosure, but failure to provide this summary will not affect the nature of the Confidential Information disclosed if the Confidential Information was identified as confidential or proprietary when disclosed orally or in any other non-tangible form.

 

11.7 Return of Confidential Information.

Upon the written request of the Disclosing Party, the Recipient will promptly return the Confidential Information to the Disclosing Party or, if the Disclosing Party directs, destroy all Confidential Information disclosed in or reduced to tangible form including any copies thereof and any summaries, compilations, analyses or other notes derived from the Confidential Information except for one copy which may be maintained by the Recipient for its records. The retained copy will remain subject to all confidentiality provisions contained in this Agreement.

 

11.8 Remedies.

The Parties acknowledge that monetary damages may not be sufficient to remedy a breach by either Party of this Agreement and agree that the non-breaching Party will be entitled to seek specific performance, injunctive and/or other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to specifically enforce the provisions hereof in addition to any other remedies available at law or in equity. These remedies will not be the exclusive remedies for breach of this Agreement but will be in addition to any and all other remedies available at law or in equity.

ARTICLE 12

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

 

12.1 Commercial Disputes.

If any dispute arises out of this Agreement or any Product Agreement (other than a dispute under Section 6.1(b) or a Technical Dispute, as defined herein), the Parties will first try to resolve it amicably. In that regard, any Party may send a notice of dispute to the other, and each Party will appoint, within […***…] Business Days from receipt of the notice of dispute, a single representative having full power and authority to resolve the dispute. The representatives will meet as necessary in order to resolve the dispute. If the representatives fail to resolve the matter within […***…] from their appointment, or if a Party fails to appoint a representative within the […***…] Business Day period set forth above, the dispute will immediately be referred to the Chief Operating Officer (or another officer as he/she may designate) of Patheon and the Chief Executive Officer of Client each Party who will meet and discuss as necessary to try to resolve the dispute amicably. Should the Parties fail to reach a resolution under this Section 12.1, the dispute will be referred to a court of competent jurisdiction in accordance with Section 13.16.

 

***Confidential Treatment Requested

- 35 -


Master Manufacturing Services Agreement

 

 

12.2 Technical Dispute Resolution.

If a dispute arises (other than disputes under Sections 6.1(b) or 12.1) between the Parties that is exclusively related to technical aspects of the manufacturing, packaging, labelling, quality control testing, handling, storage, or other activities under this Agreement (a “Technical Dispute”), the Parties will make all reasonable efforts to resolve the dispute by amicable negotiations. In that regard, senior representatives of each Party will, as soon as possible and in any event no later than […***…] Business Days after a written request from either Party to the other, meet in good faith to resolve any Technical Dispute. If, despite this meeting, the Parties are unable to resolve a Technical Dispute within a reasonable time, and in any event within […***…] Business Days of the written request, the Technical Dispute will, at the request of either Party, be referred for determination to an expert in accordance with Exhibit A. If the Parties cannot agree that a dispute is a Technical Dispute, Section 12.1 will prevail. For greater clarity, the Parties agree that the release of the Products for sale or distribution under the applicable marketing approval for the Products will not by itself indicate compliance by Patheon with its obligations for the Manufacturing Services and further that nothing in this Agreement (including Exhibit A) will remove or limit the authority of the relevant qualified person (as specified by the Quality Agreement) to determine whether the Products are to be released for sale or distribution.

ARTICLE 13

MISCELLANEOUS

 

13.1 Inventions.

(a) For the term of this Agreement, Client hereby grants to Patheon a non-exclusive, paid-up, royalty-free, non-transferable license under Client’s Intellectual Property solely to the extent necessary for Patheon to perform the Manufacturing Services in accordance with this Agreement, and not for any other purpose.

(b) All Inventions generated or derived by Patheon while performing the Manufacturing Services, to the extent relating specifically to the development, manufacture, use or sale of any Product that is the subject of the Manufacturing Services, and all Client Intellectual Property, will be the exclusive property of Client. Patheon hereby assigns, and agrees to assign, all of its right, title and interest in and to all such Inventions and Client Intellectual Property to Client and agrees to take all further acts reasonably required to evidence and/or perfect such assignment to Client, at Client’s expense. Patheon will notify Client in writing, as promptly as practicable, of all Inventions and Client Intellectual Property made, created, discovered, generated or derived by Patheon in the course of performing the Manufacturing Services. Patheon may retain one copy of records relating to Client Intellectual Property to the extent required under Applicable Laws.

(c) All Patheon Intellectual Property will be the exclusive property of Patheon. Patheon hereby grants to Client a perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, paid-up, royalty-free, transferable license, with the right to sublicense through multiple tiers, to use the Patheon Intellectual Property used by Patheon to perform the Manufacturing Services to enable Client to manufacture the Product(s).

(d) Each Party will be solely responsible for the costs of filing, prosecution, and maintenance of patents and patent applications on its own Inventions.

 

***Confidential Treatment Requested

- 36 -


Master Manufacturing Services Agreement

 

 

13.2 Intellectual Property.

All Client Intellectual Property will be owned by Client and all Patheon Intellectual Property will be owned by Patheon. Neither Party has, nor will it acquire, any interest in any of the other Party’s Intellectual Property unless otherwise expressly agreed to in writing or expressly set forth in this Agreement. Neither Party will use any Intellectual Property of the other Party, except as specifically authorized by the other Party or as required for the performance of its obligations under this Agreement.

 

13.3 Insurance.

Each Party will maintain commercial general liability insurance, including blanket contractual liability insurance covering the obligations of that Party under this Agreement through the term of this Agreement and for a period of three years thereafter. This insurance will have policy limits of not less than (i) $[…***…] for each occurrence for personal injury or property damage liability; and (ii) $[…***…] in the aggregate per annum for product and completed operations liability. If requested each Party will give the other a certificate of insurance evidencing the above and showing the name of the issuing company, the policy number, the effective date, the expiration date, and the limits of liability. Each Party will further provide the other Party a minimum of 30 days’ written notice of a cancellation of, or material change in, the insurance. If a Party is unable to maintain the insurance policies required under this Agreement through no fault of its own, then the Party will forthwith notify the other Party in writing and the Parties will in good faith negotiate appropriate amendments to the insurance provision of this Agreement in order to provide adequate assurances.

 

13.4 Independent Contractors.

The Parties are independent contractors and this Agreement and any Product Agreement will not be construed to create between Patheon and Client any other relationship such as, by way of example only, that of employer-employee, principal agent, joint-venturer, co-partners, or any similar relationship, the existence of which is expressly denied by the Parties.

 

13.5 No Waiver.

Either Party’s failure to require the other Party to comply with any provision of this Agreement or any Product Agreement will not be deemed a waiver of the provision or any other provision of this Agreement or any Product Agreement.

 

13.6 Assignment.

(a) Patheon may not assign this Agreement or any Product Agreement or any of its associated rights or obligations, or subcontract any of its rights or obligations, hereunder without the written consent of Client, this consent not to be unreasonably withheld. But Patheon may arrange for subcontractors to perform specific testing services arising under any Product Agreement without the consent of Client to the extent the subcontractors are specifically named and agreed in the Quality Agreement, provided that Patheon remains primarily liable to the Client for performance by Patheon’s subcontractors. Further it is specifically agreed that Patheon may subcontract any part of the Services under a Product Agreement to any of its Affiliates to the extent the Affiliates are specifically named and agreed in the applicable Product Agreement and in the Quality Agreement, provided that Patheon remains primarily liable to the Client for performance by Patheon’s Affiliates.

(b) Subject to Section 8.2(e), Client may assign this Agreement or any Product Agreement or any of its associated rights or obligations without approval from Patheon. Client will give Patheon prior

 

***Confidential Treatment Requested

- 37 -


Master Manufacturing Services Agreement

 

 

written notice of any assignment, any assignee will covenant in writing with Patheon to be bound by the terms of this Agreement or the Product Agreement and Client will remain liable hereunder. If Client only assigns a portion of this Agreement or a Product Agreement to a Third Party, the partial assignment will be subject to Patheon’s cost review of the assigned Products and Patheon may terminate this Agreement or the Product Agreement or any assigned part thereof, on 18 months’ prior written notice to Client and the assignee if good faith discussions do not lead to agreement on amended Manufacturing Service fees within a reasonable time. But this time period will automatically be extended by an additional three months if, at 18 months after the notice, Client is working in good-faith to secure, and/or obtain required approvals for, another supplier.

(c) Despite the foregoing provisions of this Section 13.6, either Party may assign this Agreement or any Product Agreement to any of its Affiliates or to a successor to or purchaser of all or substantially all of its business to which this Agreement relates, but the assignee must execute an agreement with the non-assigning Party whereby it agrees to be bound hereunder.

 

13.7 Force Majeure.

Neither Party will be liable for the failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any Product Agreement if the failure is caused by an event beyond that Party’s reasonable control, including, but not limited to, strikes or other labor disturbances, lockouts, riots, quarantines, communicable disease outbreaks, wars, acts of terrorism, fires, floods, storms, interruption of or delay in transportation, lack of or inability to obtain fuel, power or compliance with any order or regulation of any government entity acting within colour of right (a “Force Majeure Event”). A Party claiming a right to excused performance under this Section 13.7 will immediately notify the other Party in writing of the extent of its inability to perform, which notice will specify the event beyond its reasonable control that prevents the performance. Neither Party will be entitled to rely on a Force Majeure Event to relieve it from an obligation to pay money (including any interest for delayed payment) which would otherwise be due and payable under this Agreement or any Product Agreement. If the performance of any obligation under this Agreement is delayed due to a Force Majeure Event for a continuous period of more than 60 days, the other Party may terminate this Agreement without penalty upon written notice to the other Party under such event. All Annual Minimums will be suspended for the period of a Force Majeure Event but will be re-instated if the Force Majeure Event is cured. If this Agreement or any Product Agreement is terminated due to a Force Majeure Event lasting longer than 60 days as set forth above, Client may request Patheon to reasonably assist in the transfer of the technology required to manufacture the Product to a third party supplier designated by Client. If so requested, Patheon will promptly initiate and complete the technology transfer at Client’s cost.

 

13.8 Additional Product.

Additional Products may be added to, or existing Products deleted from, any Product Agreement by amendments to the Product Agreement including Schedules A, B, C, and D as applicable.

 

13.9 Notices.

Unless otherwise agreed in a Product Agreement, any notice, approval, instruction or other written communication required or permitted hereunder will be sufficient if made or given to the other Party by personal delivery, by telecopy, facsimile communication, or confirmed receipt email or by sending the same by first class mail, postage prepaid to the respective addresses, telecopy or facsimile numbers or electronic mail addresses set forth below:

EXHIBIT A

TECHNICAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Technical Disputes which cannot be resolved by negotiation as provided in Section 12.2 will be resolved in the following manner:

1. Appointment of Expert. Within […***…] Business Days after a Party requests under Section 12.2 that an expert be appointed to resolve a Technical Dispute, the Parties will jointly appoint a mutually acceptable expert with experience and expertise in the subject matter of the dispute. If the Parties are unable to so agree within the […***…] Business Day period, or in the event of disclosure of a conflict by an expert under Paragraph 2 hereof which results in the Parties not confirming the appointment of the expert, then an expert (willing to act in that capacity hereunder) will be appointed by an experienced arbitrator on the roster of the American Arbitration Association.

2. Conflicts of Interest. Any person appointed as an expert will be entitled to act and continue to act as an expert even if at the time of his appointment or at any time before he gives his determination, he has or may have some interest or duty which conflicts or may conflict with his appointment if before accepting the appointment (or as soon as practicable after he becomes aware of the conflict or potential conflict) he fully discloses the interest or duty and the Parties will, after the disclosure, have confirmed his appointment.

3. Not Arbitrator. No expert will be deemed to be an arbitrator and the provisions of the American Arbitration Act or of any other applicable statute (foreign or domestic) and the law relating to arbitration will not apply to the expert or the expert’s determination or the procedure by which the expert reaches his determination under this Exhibit A.

4. Procedure. Where an expert is appointed:

 

  (a) Timing. The expert will be so appointed on condition that (i) he promptly fixes a reasonable time and place for receiving representations, submissions or information from the Parties and that he issues the authorizations to the Parties and any relevant third party for the proper conduct of his determination and any hearing and (ii) he renders his decision (with full reasons) within […***…] Business Days (or another other date as the Parties and the expert may agree) after receipt of all information requested by him under Paragraph 4(b) hereof.

 

  (b) Disclosure of Evidence. The Parties undertake one to the other to give to any expert all the evidence and information within their respective possession or control as the expert may reasonably consider necessary for determining the matter before him which they will disclose promptly and in any event within […***…] Business Days of a written request from the relevant expert to do so.

 

  (c) Advisors. Each Party may appoint any counsel, consultants and advisors as it feels appropriate to assist the expert in his determination and so as to present their respective cases so that at all times the Parties will co-operate and seek to narrow and limit the issues to be determined.

 

  (d)

Appointment of New Expert. If within the time specified in Paragraph 4(a) above the expert will not have rendered a decision in accordance with his appointment, a new expert may (at the request of either Party) be appointed and the appointment of the existing expert will thereupon cease for the purposes of determining the matter at issue between the Parties save this if the existing expert renders his decision with full reasons

 

***Confidential Treatment Requested


Master Manufacturing Services Agreement

 

 

  prior to the appointment of the new expert, then this decision will have effect and the proposed appointment of the new expert will be withdrawn.

 

  (e) Final and Binding. The determination of the expert will, except for fraud or manifest error, be final and binding upon the Parties.

 

  (f) Costs. Each Party will bear its own costs for any matter referred to an expert hereunder and, in the absence of express provision in the Agreement to the contrary, the costs and expenses of the expert will be shared equally by the Parties.

For greater certainty, the release of the Products for sale or distribution under the applicable marketing approval for the Products will not by itself indicate compliance by Patheon with its obligations for the Manufacturing Services and further that nothing in this Agreement (including this Exhibit A) will remove or limit the authority of the relevant qualified person (as specified by the Quality Agreement) to determine whether the Products are to be released for sale or distribution.
