(b) Complaints and Medical Device Reporting. Each party will comply with applicable provisions of the Medical Device Reporting systems, including the requirements of 21 CFR Part 803, and each party will cooperate with the other for the efficient compliance therewith. Each of the parties agrees to notify the other within five Business Days of receipt from any customer of any significant medical injury or Medical Device Report (“MDR”) fileable complaint relating to any of the Products.

SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION.

Record evaluation, (ii) Batch/Lot size associated with the complaint and (iii) Assurance Record (visual, dimensional, functional inspections or process controls) associated with the complaint. Cambridge shall provide written follow-up within ten Business Days of any additional “request for analysis” or “corrective/preventive action request” received from SJM associated with a complaint.

(c) Remedial Actions. Cambridge will monitor regulatory matters with respect to the Products and will take all commercially reasonable actions necessary to maintain Product availability. The parties will notify each other within five Business Days of learning of any material regulatory development with respect to the Products. Each party will notify the other immediately, and promptly confirm such notice in writing, if it obtains information indicating that any of the Products may be subject to any Remedial Action. “Remedial Action” shall mean any recall, field corrective action, safety alert, notification or other regulatory action with respect to a Product taken either by virtue of applicable federal, state, foreign or other law or regulation or good business judgment. The parties will assist each other in gathering and evaluating such information as is reasonably necessary to determine the necessity of conducting any Remedial Action. Each party will maintain adequate records to permit Cambridge to trace the manufacture of the Products and the distribution and use of the Products. In the event Cambridge determines that any Remedial Action with respect to a Product sold to a SJM Target Account should be commenced or Remedial Action is required by any governmental authority having jurisdiction over the matter, Cambridge will control and coordinate all efforts necessary to conduct such Remedial Action, provided, however, that Cambridge shall be solely responsible for the direct and indirect costs of any Remedial Action relating to any of the Products. Without limiting the foregoing, such responsibility shall apply to any recall, whether required or recommended by any government or other authority or organization, or otherwise deemed appropriate by Cambridge. Cambridge shall monitor on-going manufacturing quality trends and promptly notify SJM in writing of any known material safety-related defects that are known to directly and materially impact present SJM inventory or previously distributed Products. Notification shall include description of issue, product/batch scope, and scope mitigation recommendation. Cambridge shall follow-up within three Business Days of notification with a Risk Analysis/Health Hazard Evaluation associated with the issue outlining investigative elements associated with issues severity, occurrence, and detection.

The audit may include, without limitation, records relating to manufacturing compliance with the applicable Specifications (as defined in Section 10(a)), compliance with quality control and inspection reports procedures, compliance with Good Manufacturing Practices/Quality Systems Regulations promulgated under the Act, regulatory compliance, CE mark certification records and procedures, and compliance with ISO ###-###-#### requirements, as applicable. All audits will be conducted during Cambridge’s normal business hours, after two weeks’ prior written notice to Cambridge by SJM, and at times mutually agreeable to the parties. Cambridge will make its regulatory compliance and quality

assurance personnel reasonably available to SJM in connection with such audits. If SJM recommends any corrective actions to Cambridge in connection with such audits, Cambridge will take any corrective action recommended by SJM with which Cambridge agrees within 30 days of receipt of any corrective action recommendations, if possible, or will inform SJM in writing of the reasons why Cambridge believes such corrective action is not required or cannot be completed within such 30-day period. SJM will be given access to audit any corrective action with which Cambridge agrees. If such audit discloses, in SJM’s good faith opinion, that the progress made by Cambridge as of the date of the audit with respect to the Products is such that Cambridge will be unable to make timely shipments to SJM in accordance with the purchase orders submitted by SJM to Cambridge or that all or any part of the Products are not in accordance with the applicable Specifications, SJM shall have the right to cancel any unshipped Products by written notice to Cambridge, without any liability for breach of this Agreement.

(e) Regulatory Inspections. Cambridge will promptly notify SJM of any inspection of its facilities manufacturing the Products or any component part of a Product by the Food and Drug Administration of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, ISO, CE mark certification organization or other federal, state, or local regulatory agency which relates to the manufacture, assembly, or packaging of the Products and provide SJM with information about the progress and outcome of such inspection, including, without limitation, copies of any notice of observations or warnings, requests for remedial action, corrective actions or other adverse findings.

(f) Notice of Certain Events. Cambridge shall notify SJM within five Business Days of (i) notice of any claim or, threat of any claim, to the effect that the Products or Cambridge’s use of the Cambridge Intellectual Property necessary for the manufacture or sale of the Products contemplated by this Agreement infringes upon or conflicts with the valid rights of any other person under any Intellectual Property; (ii) notice of any claim or, threat of any claim, to the effect that any Cambridge Intellectual Property necessary for the manufacture or sale of the Products contemplated by this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable by Cambridge; and (iii) receipt of any material correspondence between Cambridge and the FDA and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) with respect to the Products. SJM shall notify Cambridge in writing within five Business Days of the date on which it becomes aware that any of its employees or independent sales representatives or agents involved in the sales or marketing of the Products becomes the target of an investigation, or violates or is alleged to have violated laws or regulations, or otherwise engaged in misconduct, relating to sales or marketing practices with respect to Products, which notification shall include a summary of the investigation or misconduct, as the case may be.

(g) Assistance Between Parties. Each party shall provide reasonable assistance to the other, at no charge, if necessary to respond to regulatory audits, inspections, inquiries or requests concerning the Products. If either party is required to submit any information concerning the Products as part of a regulatory inspection or audit in connection with the manufacture and sale of the Products, either party will provide to the other party such documentation, data and other information as may be required for submission to the regulatory agency. Each party shall, if required, also provide to the regulatory agency or

SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION.

to the other party, as applicable, information concerning its quality control procedures and marketing of the Products and any other information reasonably requested by the regulatory agency.

Infringement by Third Parties.

(a) When information comes to the attention of either Cambridge or SJM to the effect that any of the Intellectual Property of Cambridge or SJM related to the Products has been infringed by a third party (the party whose Intellectual Property has been or is threatened to be infringed, being referred to as the “Infringed Party”), Cambridge or SJM, as the case may be, shall notify the other party in writing within ten Business Days of any such infringement or threatened infringement of which it becomes aware. The Infringed Party shall have the initial right (after consultation with the other party) to take any action to eliminate or minimize the consequences of such infringement or otherwise enforce Infringed Party’s rights and the other party shall, at the Infringed Party’s expense, cooperate with the Infringed Party in any such action. The other party, however, shall have the right to participate, but not as a party, at its own cost in any legal action brought by the Infringed Party to eliminate or minimize the consequences of any infringement of Intellectual Property of the Infringed Party. If the Infringed Party determines that it is necessary or desirable for the other party to join any such suit, action or proceeding, the other party shall, at Infringed Party’s expense, execute all documents and perform such other acts as may be reasonably required. If Infringed Party initiates suit hereunder it shall have the exclusive right to employ counsel of its own selection and to direct and control the litigation or any settlement thereof and shall be entitled to first reimburse itself out of any sums recovered in such suit or in settlement thereof for all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, necessarily involved in the prosecution of such suit, and any funds that shall remain from said recovery shall be distributed to Infringed Party and the other party in proportion to the loss incurred by each of Infringed Party and the other party.

(b) In the event that the Intellectual Property of the Infringed Party has been infringed by a third party, such third party is selling a commercial product in the marketplace that is materially affecting the other party’s ability to sell the Products, and the Infringed Party takes no action to stop the infringement of the Intellectual Property of Infringed Party within 90 days of receipt of notice from the other party requesting Infringed Party to take such action, then, at the Infringed Party’s sole election, the other party shall have the right either (i) to commence an action against the infringer, at its own expense and in its own name and shall have the right to join Infringed Party as a party plaintiff and Infringed Party shall join in any such action or (ii) to terminate this Agreement. Infringed Party shall execute all documents and take all other actions, at the other party’s expense, including giving testimony, which may reasonably be required in connection with such suit, action or proceeding. In the event that the other party institutes an action under this Section 12(b), the other party shall have the exclusive right to employ counsel of its own selection and to direct and control the litigation or any settlement thereof (subject to the last sentence of this Section 12(b)), and shall be entitled to first reimburse itself out of any sums recovered in such suit or in settlement thereof for all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, necessarily involved in the prosecution of such suit, and any funds that shall remain from said recovery shall be distributed to Infringed Party and the other party in proportion to the loss incurred by each of Infringed Party and the other party. If the other party desires to settle such claim or suit, it shall first give

[****] A CONFIDENTIAL PORTION OF THE MATERIAL HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED

SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION.

Infringed Party written notice of the terms of the proposed settlement and the Infringed Party must approve such proposal before the other party will be entitled to settle such claim or suit.

(i)

for bodily injury, including, but not limited to, death, or other damages arising out of the sale, distribution, or resale of any Products from: (A) defects of product design or manufacturing, or (B) a breach by Cambridge of any representations, warranties or covenants of Cambridge hereunder; including, without limitation, breach of any product warranties referred to in Section 9(a), or

(ii)

alleging the Cambridge Intellectual Property or the Products infringe or violate the Intellectual Property right of a third party,

except, in each case, to the extent any such injury, damage, cost or expense is caused by the sole negligence of SJM.

(b) SJM agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold Cambridge and its directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives (the “Cambridge Parties”) harmless from and against, and to assume all direct and indirect costs and expenses (including attorney’s fees) for any third party claims against any of the Cambridge Parties:

(i)

for bodily injury, including, but not limited to, death, or other damages arising out of any breach by SJM of any representations, warranties or covenants of SJM hereunder, or

(ii)

alleging the Intellectual Property of SJM or any sales, training or marketing materials developed by SJM with respect to the Products infringes or violates any Intellectual Property right of a third party, except to the extent such marketing materials or Intellectual Property include or incorporate information or Intellectual Property supplied to SJM by Cambridge,

except, in each case, to the extent any such injury, damage, cost or expense is caused by the sole negligence of Cambridge.

14.

Confidential Information and Publicity.

(a) Each party agrees, and will cause its affiliates, to keep confidential and not to publish (by press release, press interview, analyst call, or otherwise) or otherwise divulge or use for its own benefit or for the benefit of any third party any information of a confidential

In the event of any such required disclosure, the disclosing party will (i) provide the other party with written notice of the required disclosure at least 24 hours in advance of such disclosure if practicable under the circumstances, and (ii) limit such disclosure to the minimum required under the applicable law or obligations, whether through a request for confidential treatment or otherwise. The confidentiality obligation described above shall not apply to information of the other party which: (x) was already known by the recipient prior to the time of its disclosure by the disclosing party to the recipient; (y) is publicly available or later becomes publicly available through no fault of the recipient; or (z) is disclosed to the recipient by a third party having no similar confidentiality obligation.

(b) Subject to the limitations and prohibitions of Section 14(a) and except to the extent that any public announcement is consistent with prior public announcements approved by SJM and Cambridge and which remain accurate, any public announcement, including any announcement to employees, customers, suppliers or others having dealings with Cambridge, or similar publicity with respect to this Agreement, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Products or any other matters related to the relationship between the parties, will be issued, if at all, at such time and in such manner as SJM and Cambridge shall consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

15.

General Provisions.

(a) Governing Law.

Each party waives any objection to the venue of any Action brought in such court and any claim that the Action has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Each party agrees that a final judgment in any Action brought in such court shall be conclusive and binding upon it and may be enforced in any other courts to whose jurisdiction it may be subject.

(d) Amendments. This Agreement may only be amended or modified in writing signed by authorized representatives of SJM and Cambridge.

(e) Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, this Agreement will continue in full force and effect without said provision and will be interpreted to reflect the original intent of the parties. In such event, the parties shall in good faith attempt to negotiate a substitute clause for any provision declared invalid or unenforceable, which substitute clause shall most nearly approximate the intent of the parties in agreeing to such invalid or unenforceable provision, without itself being invalid or unenforceable.

(f) Construction Against Waiver. Waiver by either party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement or the failure by either party to exercise any right hereunder will not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach of that provision or as a waiver of any other right.

(g) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one instrument. A facsimile signature of this Agreement shall be valid and have the same force and effect as a manually signed original.

(h) Assignment. Neither Cambridge nor SJM may assign any of its rights or obligations pursuant to this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party, except to a successor to substantially all of the business of either party by merger, sale of assets, or other form of reorganization; provided, however, that SJM may assign its rights, interests or obligations hereunder to any of its controlled affiliates without the prior consent of Cambridge, so long as SJM guarantees to Cambridge the performance of SJM’s obligations under this Agreement by such controlled affiliate; and, provided, further, that SJM may sell the Products through agents or subdistributors, so long as SJM remains responsible for the actions of its agents or subdistributors under this Agreement.

(i) Notices. All notices under this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed given if sent by facsimile (except for legal process), certified or registered mail or commercial courier (return receipt or confirmation of delivery requested), or by personal delivery to the party to receive the notice or other communications called for by this Agreement at the following addresses (or at another address for a party as specified by a party by like notice):
