Isotis agrees that it will devote commercially reasonable resources to perform its obligations under this Agreement and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to source Materials and provide sufficient capacity to process and deliver the Dental Products to Keystone in accordance with the forecasts and the other terms and conditions of this Agreement. Keystone understands that the Materials include human derived tissue that may be, from time to time, limited in supply notwithstanding Isotis’ commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such Materials; accordingly, Keystone understands that it may be reasonable for Keystone to maintain some reasonable level of inventory of Dental Products based on historical data and to insure supply in the event of unanticipated interruptions in supply for a commercially reasonable period of time. A complete list of the Dental Products and their respective Processing Fees are attached hereto as Exhibit A.

(b) License. Keystone hereby grants to Isotis a non-exclusive and non-transferable right and license under the License Agreement and this Agreement solely for the supply and processing of the Dental Products for Keystone in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Isotis acknowledges it has possession of copies of all Technical Information with respect to each Dental Product, which is required by Isotis to supply the Dental Products according to the Specifications. Upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement and as otherwise permitted under Section 2.3, Isotis shall have the right to manufacture, market and distribute New Products as set forth in Section 2.3, but the license grant to Isotis under this Section 2.1(b) to supply and process the Dental Products for use in Dental Applications will terminate.

(c) No Ownership. Isotis expressly acknowledges and agrees that, other than the rights and licenses granted under this Agreement and under the License Agreement, it has no right or claim to any other rights to use the Technical Information to manufacture or distribute the Dental Products for itself or any other Third Party for use in Dental Applications or to any modification, alteration or improvement to the Technical Information to manufacture or distribute the Dental Products for itself or any other Third Party for use in Dental Applications. Upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement and as otherwise permitted under Section 2.3, Isotis shall have the right to manufacture, market and distribute New Products as set forth in Section 2.3, but the license to supply and process the Dental Products for use in the Dental Field will terminate. Keystone acknowledges that Isotis processes and supplies products similar to the Dental Products for use outside of the Dental Field; understands that the Technical Information is used to supply and process products for use in fields other than the Dental Field; and further acknowledges and agrees that Isotis shall not be limited by Keystone from using the Technical Information outside of the Dental Field. Accordingly, Isotis shall at all times have the right to use information similar or identical to the Technical Information and all modifications, alterations or improvements to the Technical Information in all fields other than the Dental Field. Isotis shall also have the right to use information similar or identical to the Technical Information and all modifications, alterations or improvements to the Technical Information in connection with New Products to the extent permitted in Section 3.2 of the License Agreement. After the termination or expiration of this Agreement, the Parties shall continue to treat Confidential Information in accordance with the terms of the License Agreement and this Agreement.

2.2 Exclusivity. During the term of the License Agreement, Isotis will not supply or process the Dental Products for use in the Dental Business for itself or any Third Party. Without limiting the foregoing, Keystone will consider, on an as requested basis, modification to these restrictions where in its reasonable discretion it believes that the competitive impact on Keystone would be minimal or otherwise manageable. If Isotis breaches its obligations under this Section 2.2, Keystone, in addition to any other legal or equitable remedies that may be available to it, will have the option of terminating this Agreement.

2.3 New Products. The restrictions contained in Sections 2.1(b) and (c) and Section 2.2 shall not restrict Isotis from manufacturing, processing, marketing and distributing New Products in the Dental Field or offering New Products to Third Parties, to the extent permitted under Section 3.2 of the License Agreement (after complying with the requirements of Section 3.2 of the License Agreement).

2.5 Changes to Dental Products and Specifications.

(a) If either Party is required by the FDA or other Governmental Authority to make changes affecting the processing of the Dental Products, such Party shall provide timely prior written notice to the other Party of the required change, including copies of all documentation from or to the FDA in connection with such required change. The Parties will consult with each other in good faith regarding the means to implement such change and an assessment of the changes to the Dental Products. Isotis agrees to make any such change in a timely manner. Keystone and Isotis shall mutually agree in advance to a budget for all reasonable project costs associated with such change to the extent related to the Dental Products, as well as a reasonable timeline for completion of the project. Keystone will pay Isotis project costs associated with such change not less than five (5) days prior to the calendar quarter in the timeline in which such costs are to be incurred. Isotis shall notify Keystone promptly of any related expenses that were not included in the original budget and shall invoice Keystone for the cost of such expenses as they are incurred. Isotis may increase the Processing Fees for the Dental Products to compensate Isotis for any actual increase in costs incurred to supply the applicable Dental Products as a direct result of such changes upon no less than (30) days advance written notice to Keystone.

(b) During the Term, if Keystone desires to amend or make changes to any applicable regulatory filing or other changes to the Dental Products that are not required by the FDA or other Governmental Authority and that affect the supply and/or processing of the Dental Products, Keystone will give written notice to Isotis of such proposed change, and provide Isotis with the revised relevant documents regarding such changes. Isotis will determine whether or not to proceed with such amendments or changes. If Isotis is willing to proceed with such amendments or changes, Keystone and Isotis shall mutually agree in advance to a budget for all reasonable project costs associated with such amendments or changes and a reasonable timeline for completion of the project. Keystone will pay Isotis all budgeted project costs associated with such amendments or changes prior to the commencement of the project. Isotis may increase the Processing Fees for the Dental Products to compensate Isotis for any increase in actual costs incurred to supply the applicable Dental Products as a result of such amendments or changes, provided that Isotis shall notify Keystone of any such cost increases prior to starting any work on the project and/or initiating any such changes under this Section 2.5(b).

(c) Isotis will not implement any material change relating to the Specifications or the Dental Products without obtaining Keystone’s prior written approval, which approval may (a) not be unreasonably withheld if such material change is required by Applicable Law, (b) be withheld in Keystone’s absolute discretion in all cases where the request would be a material change to the Specifications (as long as such material change is not required by Applicable Law) and (c) not be unreasonably withheld in all other cases. A “material change” is defined as any change that (i) affects the regulatory requirements for any Dental Product and/or would result in the need to file a 510(k) notification or modification to any existing and cleared 510(k) notification; (ii) represents a material change to a Specification, (iii) is reasonably believed by either Party to affect product safety or efficacy; (iv) represents a change to the Dental Product label or labeling; or (v) is reasonably believed by either Party to affect the quality of the applicable Dental Product. The determination as to whether a change to a Specification or Dental Product is a material change shall be made in good faith by an individual at Isotis with the requisite authority and qualifications to make the determination. Isotis shall maintain a written record of all changes deemed not to be material including but not limited to information regarding the nature of the change and the date the change was implemented. A copy of this record shall be sent to Keystone promptly upon a written request from Keystone. Attached hereto as Exhibit B is a copy of the current Specification.

The cost of all such analysis, testing and validation will be borne by Isotis, unless changed as provided in Section 2.5, in which case costs are borne as provided in Section 2.5.

(b) Isotis will have sole responsibility for adopting and enforcing safety procedures for the handling and production of Materials and Dental Products and handling of any waste relating thereto that comply in all respects with all federal, state and local environmental and occupational safety and health requirements while the Materials are under the direct control of Isotis.

(a) Isotis shall provide for adequate and proper storage of all Dental Products and Materials in accordance with Applicable Laws and the Isotis quality control system while Dental Products remain under the direct control of Isotis.

(b) Isotis shall give appropriate consideration to the nature and shelf life of each of the Materials, including but not limited to, the handling properties of the Materials and shall provide Keystone with Dental Products with a remaining shelf life from date of shipment of not less than 80% of the validated shelf life for each Dental Product.

3. PROCESSING FEES AND OTHER EXPENSES

3.1 Processing Fees. Keystone shall pay Isotis for Dental Products and Dental Product samples at the per unit Processing Fees listed in Exhibit A.

urban consumers for all cities as reported by the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics. If at any time during this Agreement, Isotis experiences a documented increase of its aggregate variable costs related to the Dental Products of greater than five percent (5%) in any calendar year the Parties will meet and confer in good faith to negotiate reasonable adjustments to the Processing Fee.

The NOTA applies to tissue implants and prohibits “any person to knowingly acquire, receive or otherwise transfer any human organ for valuable consideration for use in human transplantation...” As used in NOTA, the term “valuable consideration” does not include reasonable payments associated with the removal, transportation, implantation, processing, preservation, quality control, and storage of human tissue plus the application of technologies and operating costs associated with providing such technologies, to which human tissue has been added, for implantation or other surgical use. The Parties agree that the Processing Fees and other consideration paid pursuant to this Agreement are reasonable amounts with respect to Isotis’ services and overhead provided pursuant to this Agreement. All Processing Fees charged by Isotis to Keystone for Dental Products shall be in compliance with NOTA, and all subsequent fees charged by Keystone to its customers and end users for the Dental Products shall be in compliance with NOTA.

3.2 Packaging, Labeling and Trademarks.

(a) Artwork. All artwork and packaging graphics used by Isotis for Dental Products will be provided to Isotis by Keystone or approved by Keystone in writing before the manufacture of the applicable Dental Products. Such artwork and packaging graphics are and will remain the exclusive property of Keystone and may not be used by Isotis during or after the Term in any manner other than solely for the purposes of performing hereunder.

Keystone shall be responsible for all costs associated with development of artwork and preparation of packaging, labeling, labeling content and printer’s proofs for use with the Dental Products. In the event that Keystone makes changes to these items after such items are purchased or ordered by Isotis, or such in stock items or work-in-process inventory become obsolete, Keystone shall be responsible for the reasonable cost associated with those changes, including the actual cost of labeling and packaging components in stock remaining unused or work-in-process inventory. Prior to taking any actions to implement such changes, including, but not limited to re-labeling and repackaging components in stock remaining unused or work-in-process inventory, Isotis shall provide Keystone a detailed estimate of the anticipated costs related thereto.

Keystone and Isotis agree to reasonably cooperate on matters related to the advertising, marketing, packaging, printer’s proofs and other promotional material relating to the Dental Products (the “Promotional Materials”) in accordance with the terms of Section 8.1. Keystone’s labeling and labeling content must be reviewed for compliance with Applicable Laws and the regulatory approval for the Dental Products and approved in writing by Isotis in its reasonable discretion prior to their use.

(b) Trademarks and Labeling. Isotis will affix labeling to Dental Products as specified by Keystone, which labeling may bear one or more trademarks to be designated by Keystone. Keystone and Isotis agree to reasonably cooperate on matters related to the labeling of the Dental Products but in no event shall Isotis be required to affix labeling to the Dental Products which Isotis believes in its reasonable discretion does not comply with the Dental Products’ regulatory approvals. Nothing contained herein will give Isotis any right to use any trademark solely owned by Keystone except on Dental Products for Keystone, and Isotis will not obtain any right, title, or interest in any Keystone trademark by virtue of this

5. FORECASTS, ORDERS, AND RELEASES

5.1 Firm Orders. Subject to the provisions of this Section 5, Keystone shall be obligated to purchase, and Isotis shall be obligated to process and deliver to Keystone, Dental Products for which there is an accepted Firm Order, whether pursuant to a forecast that is deemed binding hereunder, or pursuant to a purchase order (the terms and conditions of which are set forth in this Agreement). All Firm Orders shall be in writing, specify the quantity of each Dental Product and Dental Product sample ordered, the shipping destination, the per unit and aggregate Processing Fees for each Dental Product and Dental Product sample ordered (as such Processing Fees are set forth on Exhibit A to this Agreement) and must contain delivery dates not less than ninety (90) days after the date of receipt of the Firm Order by Isotis, unless otherwise agreed upon in writing by Isotis.

5.2 Forecasting. No later than the first Business Day of each calendar month, Keystone shall provide Isotis with a written rolling forecast (or updated forecast adding a new calendar month at the end of the prior forecast) as to Keystone’s estimated requirements of Dental Products and Dental Product samples for the next twelve (12) calendar monthly periods. Each calendar monthly forecast will consist of the following:

(a) Binding Order. The first three (3) calendar months’ forecast of each twelve (12) calendar month forecast shall be binding on Keystone and accompanied by a Firm Order for such forecasted amount of Dental Products and Dental Product samples. Delivery dates in each Firm Order must be at least ninety (90) days after the receipt of the Firm Order. Upon acceptance by Isotis pursuant to Section 5.3 below, Firm Orders shall be binding on both Parties. At all times during the Term, Isotis shall use commercially reasonable efforts to fill each Firm Order submitted by Keystone and accepted by Isotis.

(b) Increases and Decreases to Forecasts. Keystone may not increase the aggregate unit amount of each Dental Product forecasted in any month of any updated rolling forecast by more than twenty percent (20%) above the applicable amount of each Dental Product included in the prior month’s forecast, and may not reduce such amounts by more than fifteen percent (15%) below the applicable amount of each Dental Product included in the prior month’s forecast, without the prior written consent of Isotis.

(c) Supplemental Orders. Keystone may submit orders for quantities in excess of the amounts included in a Firm Order (“Supplemental Orders”). Such Supplemental Orders shall have a delivery date of not less than ninety (90) days after receipt by Isotis, and shall be subject to acceptance by Isotis. Isotis agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to fulfill such accepted Supplemental Orders.

(d) Non-Binding Forecast. Keystone will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the forecast for months four (4) through twelve (12) of each twelve (12) month forecast is reasonably accurate, but the forecast for such months will not constitute a Firm Order and neither party will be bound in any manner to such forecasts.

 

11


(e) Failure to Provide Forecast. In the event that Keystone fails to provide a monthly forecast for a particular month that would otherwise constitute a Firm Order, the last available forecasted amounts for such month shall become a Firm Order. In the event that Keystone fails to provide a monthly forecast for two (2) consecutive calendar months, it shall be considered a material breach of this Agreement.

5.3 Acceptance of Firm Orders. Upon receipt of a Firm Order, Isotis shall review the order and shall have ten (10) Business Days from the Firm Order’s receipt to notify Keystone of Isotis’ acceptance or rejection of the Order. Due to the limited supply of Material, all Firm Orders are subject to acceptance by Isotis and Isotis shall be under no obligation to accept Firm Orders. If an order is rejected, Isotis shall provide Keystone with a reason for the rejection. In the event that Isotis fails to reject an Order in such ten (10) Business Day period, such order shall be deemed accepted. Isotis shall make commercially reasonable efforts to fill accepted Firm Orders with Dental Products within ninety (90) days of the receipt of the Firm Order. However, reasonable delay in shipment (where any delay of thirty (30) days or less after scheduled shipment shall be presumed reasonable) resulting from unanticipated manufacturing issues or delays shall not be considered a breach of this Agreement and shall not relieve Keystone of its obligations to accept such shipment.

5.4 Excess Shipments. Due to variances in sizes of donor lots of demineralized bone powder (“Donor Lots”), in filling any order for Keystone, Isotis has the right to deliver to Keystone a quantity of Dental Products or Dental Product samples from Donor Lots used to fill such order that is larger or smaller than the firm Order. Regardless of the size of a Finn Order, all Dental Products representing a single Donor Lot shall be shipped together. In the event that the Dental Products based on a Donor Lot results in a shipment in excess of ten percent (10%) of a Firm Order, such excess shall be applied to the Firm Order of the subsequent month. Keystone will pay for the Dental Products and Dental Product samples actually delivered.

5.5 Record Maintenance. As required by Applicable Law, Isotis will maintain Batch Records for each Batch and records relating to other quality matters, including DHR, DMR, complaint files and all records referenced in the Specifications in accordance with its written standard operating procedures.

6. KEYSTONE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS:

6.1 General. Keystone shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promote, market and distribute the Dental Products. Keystone shall (i) ensure that its sales personnel representing the Dental Products are trained in accordance with Keystone’s requirements with respect to the use of the Dental Products, and as required by Applicable Law (including without limitation, a corrective and preventive action system as required by the FDA) or similar regulatory authority with respect to the record keeping and reporting of any complaints and (ii) identify itself on all sales correspondence.

6.3 Trademarks. Other than those rights granted by Isotis to Keystone under (i) the License Agreement and (ii) the License Agreement between Isotis and Keystone, dated August 30, 2010 (the “2010 License Agreement”) (such rights to be further subject to the terms of this Agreement, including Section 8.1 hereof).

7.4 Audit. With at least two (2) weeks’ advance written notice from Keystone, Isotis shall permit Keystone or a Third Party auditor designated by Keystone to perform reasonable quality audits at the Facility during normal business hours and on a mutually agreeable date, in order to (i) inspect quality controls, including, but not limited to process validation, quality control documents, and those areas used in manufacturing, receiving, sampling, analyzing, storing, handling, packaging, shipping and distribution of the Dental Product and (ii) insure compliance with this Agreement and Applicable Law. Isotis shall reasonably cooperate with Keystone in such review.

Keystone’s representatives shall comply with all of Isotis’ policies and procedures, including those relating to safety, security and protection of Isotis Confidential Information, while conducting any review, inspection or audit of the Facility. Isotis shall comply with the reasonable requests of Keystone to remedy any non-conformances identified by Keystone.

Isotis shall have the right to send its representatives to review, during regular business hours, Keystone’s marketing and regulatory records related to the Dental Products and to Keystone’s compliance with this Agreement and Applicable Law by providing Keystone with not less than two (2) weeks’ advance written notice of Isotis’ desire to conduct such review. Keystone shall reasonably cooperate with Isotis in such review. Such reviews shall occur no more than once in any calendar year. Isotis’ representatives shall comply with all of Keystone’s policies and procedures, including those relating to safety, security and protection of Keystone Confidential Information, while conducting any such review. Keystone shall comply with the reasonable requests of Isotis to remedy any non-conformances identified by Isotis. If an employee of Isotis is injured during a visit to Keystone’s facilities in the course of his/her employment, Isotis or its insurance carrier will be responsible for workmen’s compensation payment to such employee unless such injury is the result of the negligence or willful misconduct of Keystone.

7.5 Complaints. Keystone agrees to maintain a written or electronic log of all Complaints relating to the Dental Products which have been received by Keystone from customers and any other Third Party and will forward a copy of each such Complaint to Isotis. Isotis will maintain a written or electronic log of all Complaints relating to the Dental Products which have been received by Isotis from customers and any other Third Party relating to the Dental Products and will forward a copy of each such Complaint to Keystone. If either Party receives a Dental Product Complaint, Keystone will investigate the Complaint in order to identify the root cause of the Complaint. If the Complaint does not relate to the processing of the Dental Product by Isotis, Keystone will review and investigate the Complaint and fax the final resolution documentation to Isotis. If the Complaint relates to the processing of the Dental Product by Isotis, Keystone will fax the original Complaint documentation to Isotis for review and investigation by Isotis. Isotis will review and investigate the Complaint and fax the final resolution documentation to Keystone. Keystone and Isotis will each maintain a written log of all Complaints relating to the Dental Products which have been received by such Party from customers and Third Parties, either directly or by the other Party. Both Parties

 

14


will promptly notify the other Party of the receipt of any Complaint, and the conduct of an investigation and the response to all such Complaints shall be as provided above. If the Complaint relates to the processing of the Dental Products by Isotis, Keystone shall secure for Isotis the lot or Batch number of the Dental Product in question and the name of the health care professional (if available), and institution where the Complaint (or serious injury, defect or other fact or circumstance) occurred and assist Isotis in the investigation of the Complaint. Keystone shall determine which Complaints should be reported to the FDA or other responsible regulatory authority, and notify Isotis of such Complaint report. However, if Isotis reasonably determines that a Complaint should be reported to the FDA or other responsible regulatory authority and Keystone does not file the Complaint report, Isotis may file such Complaint report. If the Complaint is to be investigated by Keystone as provided above, Keystone will complete its investigation within thirty (30) calendar days of receiving knowledge of such Complaint and provide a reasonably detailed written summary to Isotis within seven (7) calendar days of completion of the investigation. If the Complaint is to be investigated by Isotis as provided above, Isotis will complete its investigation within thirty (30) calendar days of receiving knowledge of such Complaint and provide a reasonably detailed written summary to Keystone within seven (7) calendar days of completion of the investigation. The Parties will use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with each other in a timely manner, in the investigation of Complaints relating to the Dental Products.

Keystone will be responsible for filing any adverse reaction, applicable deviation reports or other Adverse Event (as defined below) with the FDA or other responsible regulatory authority. However, if Keystone chooses not to file or immediate filing is desirable, Isotis may file with the FDA or other responsible regulatory authority and notify Keystone of such filing. Each Party shall notify the other in writing within seven (7) calendar days of receipt of knowledge of any accident, or incident involving the Dental Products which results in personal injury or damage to property, and cooperate in the investigation and determination of the cause of such accident or incident and shall make available to the other Party all statements, reports and tests made to investigate such accident or incident; provided, however, that for serious, unexpected events, notice must be given within twenty-four (24) hours after receipt of the information and followed by written notice not less than two (2) calendar days thereafter. Furnishing such information and any investigation of such information or incident report shall not in any way constitute any assumption of any liability for such accident or incident by either Party. As used herein, “Adverse Event” means any adverse event in the health of a patient or human subject after the onset of implantation or administration of the Dental Products, without regard to a causal relationship between the material and the event.

The costs and expenses of an investigation and resolution of a Complaint or Adverse Event shall be borne by Keystone, except to the extent that the Complaint is the result of the failure of the Dental Product (that is the subject of the Complaint or Adverse Event) to comply with the Specifications for such Dental Product. Isotis shall bear the costs and expenses of investigation and resolution of a Complaint or Adverse Event caused by the failure of a Dental Product to comply with the Specifications. If as a result of the investigation by either Party, either Party determines that all or some of the liability for the Complaint is the responsibility of the other Party, then the Party making the determination shall obtain the prior written approval of the other Party before it may enter into any agreement involving the participation, liability or otherwise involving such other Party.

 

15


7.6 Governmental Authority Inspections. Each Party agrees to notify the other Party within three (3) Business Days of any audit, inspection or communication by, or contact with, the FDA or other Governmental Authority which involves the Dental Products.

7.7 Recalls. Each Party shall promptly notify the other Party of any situation which may lead to an Initiated Recall of any Dental Product. Both Parties will work together to properly manage an Initiated Recall with particular regard for the safety and urgency to the end customer. Keystone shall pay the out-of-pocket direct costs of an Initiated Recall, except to the extent that such Initiated Recall is caused by (i) the failure of the Dental Products to comply with the Specifications at the time such Dental Products are delivered to the common carrier, or (ii) Isotis’ failure to manufacture the Dental Products in compliance with Applicable Law (except with respect to labeling). Isotis shall pay the out-of-pocket direct costs of any Initiated Recall to the extent that such Initiated Recall is caused by (i) the failure of the Dental Products to comply with the Specifications at the time such Dental Products are delivered to the common carrier or (ii) Isotis’ failure to manufacture the Dental Products in compliance with Applicable Law.

Keystone shall be responsible for executing an Initiated Recall and Isotis agrees to cooperate with and reasonably assist Keystone. However, nothing shall prohibit Isotis from executing an Initiated Recall, if, in the reasonable judgment of Isotis, it believes a voluntary Initiated Recall may be necessary or desirable and Keystone shall cooperate with Isotis by promptly providing records to enable Isotis to trace the Products to the end-users.

7.8 Quality Agreement. The Parties have entered into the Quality Agreement attached as Exhibit B not later than the Effective Date.

7.9 Following expiration or termination of this Agreement, Keystone and Isotis shall reasonably cooperate with respect to the matters addressed in this Article 7.

To the extent that the Isotis Representative provides additional revisions or modifications, the Parties shall endeavor to agree upon final Promotional Materials within five (5) Business Days after Keystone has received notice thereof from the Isotis Representative. Isotis’ agreement to the Promotional Materials shall not be unreasonably withheld or conditioned.

 

  (c)

To the extent Keystone does not agree to any Isotis suggested revisions or modifications to the Promotional Materials as set forth in (b) above, Keystone shall revise the Promotional Materials to remove the portion objected to by Isotis and then use the Promotional Materials for the marketing, promotion and distribution of Dental Products in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. If the Parties cannot reach mutual agreement on all such portions of the Promotional Materials as set forth herein and Keystone removes any portions properly objected to by Isotis, Keystone warrants that it shall not include any such objected to portions of the Promotional materials in connection with the marketing, promotion and distribution of the Dental Products under this Agreement. Isotis acknowledges and agrees that Keystone shall be under no obligation to agree to any suggested revisions or modifications to the portions of the Promotional Materials that do not contain or incorporate the information described above but is required to remove such portions where mutual agreement cannot be reached. Keystone acknowledges and agrees that such Promotional Materials shall not be deemed approved by Isotis.

 

  (d)

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Isotis be required to label the Dental Products in such as manner as it, in its reasonable discretion, believes does not comply with Applicable Law or the Dental Product regulatory approvals.

Each Party shall be responsible for any breach of this Section 9 by its directors, officers, employees, consultants, attorneys and accountants and other agents and representatives. Each Party covenants that it shall exercise the same degree of care with respect to the other Party’s Confidential Information as it would its own Confidential Information, and, in any event, shall exercise no less than a reasonable degree of care.

11.1 Acceptance and Agreement. ALL SALES AND ORDER(S) ARE SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT, UNLESS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY AGREED TO IN WRITING BY BOTH PARTIES. NO VARIATION OF THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS WILL BE BINDING UPON THE PARTIES HERETO UNLESS AGREED TO IN WRITING AND SIGNED BY AN OFFICER OR OTHER AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF BOTH PARTIES. ANY ADDITIONAL OR DIFFERENT TERMS, ADDITIONS, OR EXCEPTIONS PROPOSED BY EITHER PARTY (WHETHER IN A PURCHASE ORDER, OTHER PRINTED FORM OR ELSEWHERE) ARE OBJECTED TO AND HEREBY REJECTED, UNLESS SUCH TERMS, ADDITIONS, OR EXCEPTIONS ARE APPROVED SPECIFICALLY BY BOTH PARTIES IN WRITING.

11.2 Changes.

Neither Party may cancel any accepted Firm Orders unless such cancellation is expressly agreed to in writing by the other Party. In the event of a cancellation that is expressly agreed to in writing by Isotis, Isotis will advise Keystone of the total amount of expenses reasonably incurred by Isotis as a result of such Firm Order and such cancellation, if any, and Keystone agrees to pay such such reasonable expenses.

21


11.3 Delivery and Claims.

(a) Shipping and Delivery. Terms for the shipments of Dental Products and Dental Product samples will be ExWorks (INCOTERMS 2010). Keystone shall pay shipping and freight costs, which will be added to the invoice for each Firm Order. Shipment must be to a destination that is a licensed tissue bank and complies with AATB standards, procedures and criteria and Applicable Law. Delivery of the Dental Products and Dental Product samples to the carrier at Isotis’ shipping point shall constitute delivery to Keystone and, subject to the following proviso, Keystone shall bear all risk of loss or damage in transit; provided, however, that Isotis shall be responsible for insuring that the Dental Products are shipped in the appropriate shipping containers and otherwise in accordance with the appropriate shipping protocol, as set forth in the Specifications. The general method of shipment shall be determined by Keystone and approved by Isotis, Isotis shall consider any reasonable requests made by Keystone with respect to shipping; however, Isotis reserves the right, in its discretion, to change the exact method of shipment and to make delivery in installments, all such installments to be separately invoiced and paid for when due as provided in Section 11.5, without regard to subsequent deliveries. However, in accordance with the terms of Section 5.4 all Dental Products representing a single Donor Lot shall be shipped together.

(b) Batch Approval and Release; Inspection and Acceptance. Isotis shall be responsible for all Batch approval and release after appropriate validation and inspection to ensure the Dental Products satisfy the Specifications and comply with all quality control requirements. Upon Keystone’s receipt of any Dental Products shipped hereunder, Keystone shall inspect the Dental Products and notify Isotis in writing within ten (10) Business Days after the goods have been received by Keystone of any claims for shortages or failure to meet applicable Specifications and shall hold the Dental Products for Isotis’ written instructions concerning disposition. Any rejection of Dental Products by Keystone submitted to Isotis will be in writing (sent in accordance with Section 10.1 no later than the tenth (10th) Business Day following the date of receipt of the applicable Dental Products) accompanied, if appropriate, by a report of analysis (including an adequate Dental Products sample from the Batch analyzed). If Isotis agrees that such rejection was justified, Isotis will promptly repair or replace the Dental Products or credit Keystone’s account for the Processing Fees of such Dental Products.

If Keystone fails to so notify Isotis within ten (10) Business Days after the Dental Products have been received by Keystone, such Dental Products shall conclusively be deemed to conform to the terms and conditions hereof and to have been irrevocably accepted by Keystone.

If Isotis disagrees with Keystone’s rejection of any Dental Products, the Parties will work in good faith to resolve the dispute. If after such good faith negotiation, the Parties fail to reach an agreement as to whether the rejection was justified, the Parties will mutually agree upon a qualified Third Party testing laboratory to test samples of such Batch of Dental Products to determine whether or not such Batch failed to meet the applicable Specifications. The findings of such Third Party will be binding on both Parties. The non-prevailing Party shall bear the costs of the evaluation, including shipping costs.

11.5 Payment.

(a) Payment Terms. Isotis will invoice Keystone for the Processing Fee at the time of shipment of the Dental Products in accordance with this Agreement. If Keystone disagrees with the amount of any invoice submitted by Isotis, Keystone will promptly notify Isotis of such disagreement and the Parties will promptly attempt to resolve the difference. The payment terms for all undisputed amounts of an accepted Firm Order are net thirty (30) days from the date of invoice, unless otherwise stated. Unpaid balances over thirty (30) days will be subject to a 10% per annum service charge.

 

22


(b) Default. In the event of default by Keystone in the payment of the Processing Fees for any Dental Products, Isotis, at its option, without prejudice to any other lawful remedy, (i) may defer delivery and/or (ii) change the terms of payment to payment in full or in part in advance of shipment of the balance of undelivered orders and for future orders. Keystone agrees to pay all costs, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney and accounting fees and other expenses of collection resulting from any default by Keystone in payment in accordance with this Agreement, without any withholding or set-off.

11.6 Taxes and Other Charges. Any use tax, sales tax, excise tax, duty, custom, inspection or testing fee, or any other tax, fee or charge of any nature whatsoever imposed by any Governmental Authority, on or measured by the transaction between Keystone and Isotis, except for taxes of Isotis’ income, shall be paid by Keystone in addition to the Processing Fees quoted or invoiced. In the event Isotis is required to pay any such tax, fee or charge, Keystone shall reimburse Isotis therefor; or Keystone shall provide Isotis at the time the order is submitted an exemption certificate or other document acceptable to the authority imposing the tax, fee or charge.

11.7 Warranties; Limitation of Liability.

(a) Product Warranty. Isotis warrants that the Dental Products shall conform to the Dental Product limited warranty attached hereto as Exhibit D (THE “ISOTIS LIMITED WARRANTY”). THE WARRANTIES CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT AND THE ISOTIS LIMITED WARRANTY ARE EXCLUSIVE AND ISOTIS DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WRITTEN OR ORAL, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, (I) ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR APPLICATION, OR WARRANTY OF QUALITY, OTHER THAN THOSE EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THE ATTACHED WARRANTY, OR (II) ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY ARISING FROM COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, COURSE OF DEALING, OR USAGE OF TRADE OR (III) WARRANTIES OF NON-INFRINGEMENT.

(d) Isotis Indemnification. Except to the extent a Claim is subject to indemnification by Keystone under Section 11.9(e), Isotis agrees to indemnify and defend the Keystone Indemnitees and hold the Keystone Indemnitees harmless from and against any and all Claims of Third Parties arising out of, in connection with, or resulting from (i) any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by any Isotis lndemnitee in this Agreement (including the failure of the Dental Products to comply with the Specifications), (ii) the violation of any Applicable Law, (iii) products liability resulting from the failure of the Dental Products to comply with the Specifications, (iv) any infringement or alleged infringement of any Third Party patent, copyright, trade secret or other intellectual property resulting from the failure of the Dental Products to comply with the Specifications, and (v) the gross negligence or willful or intentional misconduct of any lsotis Indemnitee.

The Indemnitor shall control the defense and/or settlement of any such Claims, and this indemnity agreement shall not apply to amounts paid by the lndemnitee in connection with any Claims if such payments are made without the consent of the Indemnitor.

At the Indemnitor’s request and expense, the Indemnitee and its employees and agents shall cooperate fully with the Indemnitor and its legal representatives in the investigation of any Claims covered by this indemnification and provide full information with respect thereto.
