Auxiliary Materials	Any material used for Manufacture, or for maintenance of equipment or buildings, which is not a raw or packaging material, e.g. lubricants, detergents, silicon rubber.
Annual Product Review (APR)	A reporting process by which written records required by 21CFR211.180(e)shall be maintained so that data therein can be used for evaluating, at least annually, the quality standards of the Product to determine the need for changes in Product specifications or manufacturing or control procedures. (Alder is responsible for submitting this report to the FDA).
Annual Product Quality Review (APQR)	A collection of data provided by SANDOZ [***] (to be established in subsequent quality agreements) presented in a clear format, that makes it possible to identify quality problems, deviations and trends and/or to substantiate consistent quality.

Customer Complaint	Any written complaints by Alder that a Batch, or one or more samples in a Batch, is not conforming with the requirements under CMA Clause 18(1)
Process	CMA Clause 1(1) "Process" means the series of processes, methods, tests and techniques by which the BDS is Manufactured from the ALD403 Cell Line, as described in detail in a manufacturing process description document for the process established at such facility, which shall be agreed by the Parties, and as defined in the Manufacturing Records, generated for such facility where the BDS is Manufactured, and “Processed” and “Processing” shall be interpreted accordingly.
Product	CMA Clause 1(1) "Product" means the proprietary product known as ALD403, which is a recombinant protein having the amino acid sequence, and encoded by the nucleic acid constructs, described in further detail on Schedule 1 to the Specifications Letter. Also known as eptinezumab.
Product Complaint	Any written, electronic, or oral communication that alleges deficiencies related to the safety, identity, strength, purity or quality of Product.
Ongoing Process Verification (OPV)	Refer to CPV
Out of Expectation (OOE)	Out of Expectation results are testing results that, while not Out of Specification, they are atypical results when compared to expected and/or historical results and warrant further investigation.
Out of Specification (OOS)	For the purpose of this Quality Agreement, Out of Specification results are testing results that do not meet the BDS Specification.
[***]	[***]
Quality Event	Quality Events are distinguished from Deviations or OOS/OOE laboratory tests. Quality Events are results of the following processes: [***]

Reference Sample	EU term synonymous with US term Reserve Sample.
Reference Standard	A substance, used in routine laboratory analysis, which has been shown by an extensive set of analytical tests to be authentic material of established quality and purity.
Repeat Assay	An assay which is performed due to an invalidation of the prior assay (e.g. when an assay or sample result is determined to be invalid the next assay performance or sample analysis is considered a repeat analysis).
Reprocessing	Repeating process steps that are part of the established manufacturing procedure
Re-sampling	Additional testing on a new sample collected from the batch from a new sampling of the batch. A re-sample may be collected in the event that the original sample is suspected to not be representative or is confirmed to not be representative of the batch, or if none of the original sample remains. The sampling scheme for the resample must be documented prior to re-sampling, in the OOS investigation report.
