This Agreement does not create an employer-employee relationship between bluebird bio or any employee, subcontractors (including any Affiliate of bluebird bio) or any bluebird bio personnel on the one hand and Manufacturer or any employee, subcontractors (including any Affiliate of Manufacturer), or any Manufacturer personnel on the other. Manufacturer is acting under this Agreement as an independent contractor with full power and authority to determine the means, manner and method of performance of Manufacturer’s duties. Manufacturer will be responsible for and will withhold and/or pay any and all applicable federal, state or local taxes, payroll taxes, workers’ compensation contributions, unemployment insurance contributions, or other payroll deductions from the compensation of Manufacturer’s employees and other Manufacturer personnel.

15.2    Force Majeure. Neither party will have breached this Agreement for failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any term of this Agreement or applicable Work Order when such failure or delay is caused by or results from causes beyond the reasonable control of the affected party, including fire, floods, earthquakes, embargoes, trade restrictions, restraints or delays affecting shipping or carriers, shortages, epidemics, quarantines, government action, war, acts of war (whether war be declared or not), insurrections, riots, civil commotion, terrorism, strikes, acts of God or nature, prolonged losses of one or more utilities to the Manufacturer’s facility(ies) or acts, omissions, or delays in acting, by any governmental authority (“force majeure”). The party affected by any event of force majeure will promptly notify the other party, explaining the nature, details and expected duration of the force majeure event. Such party will also notify the other party from time to time as to when the affected party reasonably expects to resume performance in whole or in part of its obligations under this Agreement, and to notify the other party of the cessation of any such event. A party affected by an event of force majeure will use its reasonable efforts to remedy, remove, or mitigate such event and the effects of it with all reasonable dispatch. Upon termination of the event of force majeure, the performance of any suspended obligation or duty will promptly recommence. Any time specified for completion of performance in the Services falling due during or subsequent to the occurrence of a force majeure event shall be automatically extended for a period of time to recover from such disability.

15.3    Public Statements. Except to the extent required by applicable law or regulation or the rules of any stock exchange or listing agency, neither party will make any public statement or release concerning this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or use the other party’s name in any form of advertising, promotion or publicity, without obtaining the prior written consent of such party.

15.8    Severability; Reformation.

If any provision of this Agreement is found by such an authority to be invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part, such provision will be changed and interpreted so as to best accomplish the objectives of such unenforceable or invalid provision and the intent of the parties, within the limits of applicable law.

The parties expressly reject any application to this Agreement or any Work Order of (a) the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods; and (b) the 1974 Convention on the Limitation Period in the International Sale of Goods, as amended by that certain Protocol, done at Vienna on April 11, 1980.

15.11    Waiver. Any delay in enforcing a party’s rights under this Agreement, or any waiver as to a particular default or other matter, will not constitute a waiver of such party’s rights to the future enforcement of its rights under this Agreement, except with respect to an express written waiver relating to a particular matter for a particular period of time signed by an authorized representative of the waiving party, as applicable.

15.12    No Benefit to Third Parties. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement are for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and their successors and permitted assigns, and they will not be construed as conferring any rights on any other persons.

15.13    No Strict Construction; Headings. This Agreement has been prepared jointly and will not be strictly construed against either party. The section headings are included solely for convenience of reference and will not control or affect the meaning or interpretation of any of the provisions of this Agreement. The words “include,” “includes” and “including” when used in this Agreement are deemed to be followed by the phrase “but not limited to”.
