Article II
Process Implementation Phase; Additional Services

     2.1 Process Implementation and Testing.

     (a) On or about December 18, 2009 (the “HOA Effective Date”), DENDREON began the process to provide all necessary technical information in a timely manner to GSK, including applicable DENDREON Intellectual Property and other technical information relating to the process and testing reasonably required to produce the Product (the “Process”), including, without limitation, cell lines and virus banks and associated documentation. GSK shall reserve Suite capacity and the allocated supporting plant infrastructure for the Suite necessary to implement and maintain the Process at the Suite and manufacture the Product. GSK shall also provide to DENDREON technical transfer services for all validated analytical assays (except externally contracted testing as specified in Schedule 5.1B) that are required to release the Product for further manufacture. DENDREON shall identify a qualified primary laboratory to support analytical technical transfer to GSK for the validated analytical assays listed in Schedule 5.1B. Any optimization or validation of assays by GSK at the request of DENDREON will be managed as a Scope Change.

     (b) GSK shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to implement, scale-up, test and qualify the Process in the Suite. The services and tasks to be completed by GSK in connection with the implementation, scale-up, testing and validation of the Process in the Suite (the “Services”) are set forth in Schedule 2.1B.

     (c) The Process Implementation Phase shall be completed in accordance with the standards set forth in Schedule 2.1C.

     2.2 Capital Expenditures and Maintenance.

     (a) Promptly after the HOA Effective Date, GSK shall order, install and maintain the capital equipment specified in Schedule 2.2A (“DENDREON Equipment”). DENDREON shall reimburse GSK for capital modifications to GSK-owned equipment required to implement the Process, pursuant to advance approval by the JMC. DENDREON shall reimburse GSK, at cost, for all such capital expenditures related to the implementation, scale-up, testing and validation of the Process.

     (b) Title to all DENDREON Equipment shall be retained by DENDREON during the Term of the Agreement; provided however, that all capital equipment not designated as “portable” DENDREON Equipment on Schedule 2.2A shall remain with GSK upon termination of this Agreement, at which time title shall pass to GSK. DENDREON shall maintain insurance coverage at its own expense for any DENDREON Equipment during the Term and DENDREON shall bear the risk of loss with respect to any such DENDREON Equipment during the Term, except to the extent such loss results solely from GSK’s negligence or GSK’s willful misconduct. GSK shall be responsible for any routine maintenance as well as any non-routine maintenance that becomes necessary due to GSK’s negligence or GSK’s willful misconduct. DENDREON shall be responsible for any incremental non-routine maintenance expenses or capital expense for the replacement or repair of DENDREON Equipment; provided, however, that if GSK uses DENDREON Equipment for purposes other than the Services (“GSK Purpose”), then GSK and DENDREON shall share the cost of any incremental non-routine maintenance expenses for the specific DENDREON Equipment used by GSK for GSK Purpose and such cost shall be shared based on a pro-rata basis measuring the time such equipment has been used for GSK Purpose as compared to the time used to perform Services under this Agreement. GSK shall notify DENDREON prior to the performance of any non-routine maintenance not caused by GSK’s negligence or GSK’s willful misconduct, and DENDREON shall directly pay or promptly reimburse GSK (as the case may be) for any such maintenance costs that DENDREON has authorized. During the Term, DENDREON Equipment that is integrally part of equipment in the Suite or an integral part of the Suite infrastructure and not readily severable may be used by GSK for purposes other than the Services provided under this Agreement, provided however, that such use shall not impact GSK’s ability to provide the Services under this Agreement or the manufacture of the Product in accordance with the Specifications.

     2.3 Reservation of Capacity.

     Subject to Section 3.1(b) and subject to any acceptance of a Firm Order by GSK, the Parties agree that during the Term, GSK shall reserve an appropriate portion of the capacity of the Suite to meet DENDREON’s forecast demand for Product. The Suite consists of [***], purification capacity sized to meet output from the production bioreactors, and supporting infrastructure. GSK and DENDREON have mutually agreed based on the information provided by DENDREON, that at [***] will be necessary in the Suite with matching downstream processing. GSK acknowledges that in consideration for GSK reservation of capacity DENDREON has paid GSK the reservation fee described in the Heads of Agreement.

     2.4 Delay in the Process Implementation Phase; Failure to Implement Process.

     (a) If a Delay Event occurs (as defined below) and DENDREON elects to have GSK continue efforts to implement the Process and/or Process Implementation Phase for a maximum of up to [***], then DENDREON shall commence paying GSK a fee of [***] per calendar month during such extension period (the “Extension Fee”). Payment of the Extension Fee shall be on a pro rata basis for any calendar month that is not a full calendar month. For the avoidance of doubt, no other fees shall be due to GSK during the mutually agreed extension period, with the exception of the fees associated with Materials set forth in Schedule 4.1 and externally contracted testing services. The term “Delay Event” shall mean any event that causes performance of Process

Implementation Phase obligations to extend beyond [***]. For the avoidance of doubt, a Delay Event shall exclude any event that extends Process Implementation Phase completion beyond [***] caused solely by GSK’s action or inaction.

     (b) [***]

     2.5 Additional Services.

     DENDREON, may at any time during the Term, request that GSK perform additional services, implement changes to the Process that are necessary to conform to regulatory requirements or improve the Process efficiency. DENDREON shall pay additional fees to GSK for additional services as set forth in this Agreement or for services not specified in the Scope of Work. All such additional services shall be defined and mutually agreed in a Scope Change document, outlining the service to be provided and associated additional costs and timelines for completion, as further described in Schedule 2.1B of the Scope of Work, entitled, “Change Management Mechanism.” GSK shall invoice DENDREON for all such additional services or Scope Changes on a Cost Plus Basis. DENDREON shall provide reasonable ongoing technical assistance to GSK in connection with the Services to be provided hereunder to ensure that mutually agreed upon milestones are achieved in a timely manner. Notwithstanding the foregoing, GSK shall have no obligation to implement any change or improvement which adversely impacts GSK’s ability to manufacture its own or a third party’s products in the Building 40 facility. For the avoidance of doubt, GSK shall be entitled to an adjustment of the pricing for Services to recover expenses incurred by GSK due to any such changes or improvements which adversely impact GSK’s operating costs, which adjustment shall be negotiated by the Parties in good faith. If any Governmental Body requires GSK to implement any changes or improvements necessary to permit GSK to manufacture the Product, the Parties shall discuss such changes or improvements and the costs associated therewith at the JMC.

     2.6 Failure to Deliver Materials and Process Information.

     In addition to the covenants set forth in Section 2.4(a), if during the Process Implementation Phase, DENDREON fails to timely deliver Materials and information to GSK thereby interfering with GSK’s ability to meet the target completion dates for the milestones set forth in Schedule 2.1B, or initiates a Scope Change that adversely impacts GSK’s ability to meet the target completion dates for the milestones, then DENDREON shall nevertheless pay the fees for the Process Implementation Phase as set forth in Schedule 4.1.

     2.7 Continuous Improvement Program. The JMC shall oversee a continuous improvement program to improve the efficiency and/or productivity of the Process. All net cost savings resulting from such joint activities shall be shared equally between the parties.

Article III
Manufacturing and Supply

     3.1 Manufacture of Product; Purchase of Product.

     (a) Upon completion of the Process Implementation Phase, GSK shall commence the Manufacturing Phase. During the Manufacturing Phase, GSK shall manufacture Product in accordance with all applicable regulatory requirements necessary to support the approval of DENDREON’S BLA and maintain the BLA in accordance with applicable quality standards for the Product as set forth in the Quality Agreement (attached hereto as Schedule 3.1A); applicable health and safety requirements; and the Specifications. GSK shall manufacture Product for both commercial sale and for use in any human clinical trials initiated by DENDREON in the Territory, respectively. DENDREON may request Product be manufactured for use in clinical trials and/or commercial sale outside the Territory, and the Parties will in good faith discuss the requirements and costs associated therewith. Any such changes to the Territory would be defined and mutually agreed upon in a Scope Change document, outlining the requirements and specifications, and any additional cost.

     (b) In no event shall GSK be required to manufacture more Product than commercially possible based on the demonstrated Process capability or forecasted by DENDREON and accepted by GSK. From time to time, due to significant unforeseen circumstances, DENDREON may deliver to GSK an order for Product volumes in excess of those specified in any Firm Order. Upon DENDREON’s written request, GSK shall use its Commercially Reasonable Efforts to provide DENDREON with such additional Product volumes, but shall not be obligated to do so if accommodating DENDREON would adversely impact GSK.

     (c) Purchase of Product. DENDREON shall purchase Product from GSK on a nonexclusive basis and in accordance with the assumptions set forth on Schedule 4.1.

     (d) Specifications Change.

          (i) Either Party may request a Specifications change. The Parties shall discuss in good faith the implementation of any such requested change; provided however, that any such change shall be made only upon the mutual consent of both Parties. Either Party may request a Specifications change that is required for compliance with Regulatory Acts or Legal Requirements, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. All such changes in Specifications shall be implemented in accordance with the Change Control Procedure.

          (ii) GSK shall not make any revisions to the Specifications without prior written consent of DENDREON.

          (iii) Prior to implementation of any change to the Specifications, the Parties shall agree upon a procedure to ensure that applicable Governmental Bodies have approved the change to the Specifications (to the extent necessary), and that GSK has a reasonable period of time to implement any changes required by any such applicable Governmental Body with regard to the Specifications.

          (iv) DENDREON shall be responsible for the cost of any Specifications change which is: (A) requested by DENDREON; or (B) required by Regulatory Acts or Legal Requirements which relate solely to the Process; or (C) required due to a change of any DENDREON Supplier. GSK shall be responsible for the cost of any Specifications change which

is requested by GSK, is not required by Regulatory or Legal Requirements and which relates solely to the Process.

     (e) Change Control Procedure. The Change Control Procedure set forth in the Quality Agreement (the “Change Control Procedure”), shall establish the procedure to be followed if either GSK or DENDREON desires to change any aspect of the Process or the Product, including but not limited to, any change in Specifications (each a “Change Control”). All Change Control requests that have either a cost impact for which DENDREON is responsible or a schedule impact shall also be accompanied by a Scope Change request form outlining the costs and timing to implement such changes.

     (f) Validation Requirements. GSK shall perform at no additional cost to DENDREON and on an on-going basis the necessary validation activities required by cGMPs or Legal Requirements in connection with the regular course of manufacturing the Product as further described in the Quality Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, any DENDREON request that GSK revalidate an assay shall be deemed to be a Scope Change.

     3.3 Forecasts and Firm Orders.

     On the Effective Date, DENDREON shall provide GSK with a [***] non-binding rolling forecast of its Product requirements for the purpose of facilitating GSK’s capacity allocation and production planning efforts. DENDREON shall submit an updated forecast on or before the first business day of each subsequent calendar quarter. The [***] of each forecast shall be deemed a Firm Order. Each [***] shall specify target Product requirements for each calendar quarter in the [***]. Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, [***] and in accordance with other parameters set forth herein.

     Each Firm Order shall be accepted or rejected pursuant to written notice delivered to DENDREON within five (5) business days of receipt by GSK of the applicable forecast. Any Firm Order that is accepted by written notice or is deemed accepted because GSK did not either accept or reject the Firm Order in writing within five (5) business days of GSK’s receipt of the same shall be binding on each Party. In the event that GSK rejects a Firm Order pursuant to this Section 3.3, GSK shall (i) communicate with DENDREON the reasons that it is unable to satisfy such Firm Order, and (ii) the Parties may meet to discuss potential modification of the Firm Order that may result in GSK’s acceptance of such Firm Order.

     3.4 Failure to Deliver Cell Banks, Virus Banks, Critical Reagents, Information to Close Batch Deviations or Reference Standard.

     In the event that during the Manufacturing Phase DENDREON fails to deliver the cell bank, virus banks, critical reagents, information to close Batch deviations or reference standards that are necessary for the manufacture and/or release of the Product and such failure adversely impacts GSK’s ability to manufacture and/or release Product, GSK shall nevertheless be entitled to payment on the basis of the Firm Orders accepted by GSK. In the event that forty-two (42) calendar days after a Batch of Product has been filled into final containers and GSK is unable to complete the GSK Release of the Batch due to actions or inactions by DENDREON as described in

this Section 3.4, then GSK shall be entitled to invoice DENDREON for such Batch without having completed a GSK Release and DENDREON shall be obligated to pay such invoice pursuant to Section 4.3.

     4.3 Payment. DENDREON shall pay GSK the amounts set forth on invoices submitted to DENDREON by GSK on or before thirty (30) days after the date of invoice, except for any amounts disputed in good faith. Payments that are not paid within thirty (30) days of the date on which they were due shall accrue interest at one percent (1.0%) per month or portion thereof from the date payment was due. No interest will be charged on such amounts during the period of any dispute; provided however, that interest will be paid to GSK in the event GSK prevails in the dispute.

     4.4 Payment Denominations. All payments to be made under this Agreement shall be made in United States Dollars unless otherwise agreed by the Parties.

     4.5 Credits for Non-conforming or Defective Product. In the event (i) DENDREON rejects a Batch of Product received hereunder because it contains a latent defect as further described in Section 5.2(a); (ii) DENDREON never receives a Batch of Product because GSK was unable to issue a Certificate of Analysis for such Batch and perform a Final Release; or (iii) the Parties agree that the Product is non-conforming pursuant to the procedures set forth in the Quality Agreement, GSK shall issue a credit to DENDREON for any amounts previously paid for said Batch against payments owed for any future batches. In the event the Parties disagree as to whether the Product is conforming, the matter shall be referred to the JMC for resolution.

     4.6 Taxes.

     (a) DENDREON shall pay and otherwise be responsible for all applicable sales, goods and services and transfer taxes in connection with any payment made by DENDREON pursuant to this Agreement.

     (b) Any income or other tax that one Party is required to withhold and pay on behalf of the other Party with respect to amounts payable under this Agreement shall be deducted from and offset against said amounts prior to payment to the other Party; provided however, that in regard to any tax so deducted, the Party making the withholding shall give or cause to be given to the other Party such assistance as may reasonably be necessary to enable that other Party to claim exemption therefrom or credit therefor, and in each case shall furnish the Party on whose behalf amounts were withheld, proper evidence of the taxes paid on its behalf.

The GSK Release Flow for PA2024 is set forth in Schedule 5.1D.

          (ii) Subject to DENDREON’s rights under Section 5.2, upon receipt of the GSK Release documentation, DENDREON shall review and approve the GSK Release documentation and provide final release notification to GSK within five (5) business days of receipt (the “Final Release”). Upon completion of the Final Release, GSK shall tender delivery of Product to DENDREON’s designated carrier or freight forwarder at the Suite and the risk of loss for such Product shall pass from GSK to DENDREON as more fully described in Section 4.7(b). DENDREON shall be responsible for performing its own release of Product for further manufacture.

5.2

Holds and Rejections.

     (a) General. DENDREON shall be entitled to sample and test the Product to determine that the Product meets the agreed Specifications. Within thirty (30) days after such sampling and testing or DENDREON’s receipt of Product or samples for testing, DENDREON shall notify GSK if: (i) DENDREON places any Product on hold for further investigation of any Nonconformity discovered by DENDREON; or (ii) DENDREON prepares a Deviation Report (as defined in the Quality Agreement) with respect to a Batch; or (iii) DENDREON rejects any Batch (or portion thereof) of Product. DENDREON’s notice shall state the basis for the hold, Deviation Report or

rejection. In the case of a latent defect in a Batch of Product which could not be discovered by DENDREON during its release testing procedures, DENDREON shall notify GSK of such latent defect within thirty (30) days after its discovery by DENDREON. In either case, DENDREON’s failure to provide such notice within the thirty (30) day period shall be deemed an acceptance of the Product or samples delivered.

     (b) Independent Testing. If the Parties disagree as to whether the Product subject to a hold, Deviation Report or rejection meets Specifications, DENDREON’s quality assurance officer designated by DENDREON from time to time and GSK’s Director of Quality in GMS Biopharmaceuticals, shall confer to review samples, testing, Batch records and or other relevant documentation in an effort to resolve the Parties’ disagreement. If the disagreement is not resolved, then samples, Batch records and other data relating to the Batch in dispute shall be promptly submitted for testing and evaluation to an independent Third Party (including a testing laboratory) approved in writing by both Parties. The conduct of such testing and evaluation and the conclusions and recommendations issued by the independent Third Party shall comply with cGMP requirements. The cost of the Third Party testing and evaluation shall be borne by DENDREON if the independent Third Party determines that the Product meets Specifications and by GSK if the independent Third Party determines that the Product does not meet Specifications.

     (c) Notice. In the event that after the Final Release of the Product, either Party becomes aware that any Batch of the Product may have a Nonconformity, such Party shall immediately notify the other Party.

     5.3 Certain Product Events. In the event that DENDREON is required by a Governmental Body or Regulatory Authority or voluntarily decides to initiate a recall, withdrawal or field correction of, field alert report or comparable report with respect to, any product incorporating Product manufactured by GSK pursuant to this Agreement, DENDREON shall notify GSK and GSK shall fully cooperate with DENDREON to implement the same. DENDREON shall make all contacts with Regulatory Authorities and shall be responsible for coordinating all of the necessary activities in connection with any such recall, withdrawal or field correction, field alert report or comparable report, and shall make all statements to the media, including, but not limited to press releases and interviews for publication or broadcast. GSK agrees to make no statement to the media, Governmental Body or Regulatory Authority, unless otherwise required by law, and in such event, GSK shall collaborate with DENDREON on the content of any such statement, but only to the extent permitted by Legal Requirements and/or Regulatory Acts. GSK shall be free to make contacts with Regulatory Authorities and Governmental Bodies relating to the Suite generally or other products manufactured in the Suite. DENDREON shall be responsible for all costs associated therewith unless the recall, withdrawal, or field correction, field alert report or comparable report is initiated because of a defect in the Product arising from GSK’s gross negligence or intentional misconduct in the manufacture of the Product by GSK in which case GSK will pay for out-of-pocket costs and administrative costs actually incurred by DENDREON to Third Parties for transportation and destruction of the recalled product incorporating the Product upon receipt of substantiation of such costs. GSK will notify DENDREON of any new product developments or introductions or any changes to the Suite that may have a significant impact on the Product.

     5.4 Quality Agreement. The Quality Agreement (attached hereto in Schedule 3.1A) specifies the respective quality assurance obligations and responsibilities of the Parties with respect to the manufacture of the Product.

EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO THIRD PARTY CLAIMS COVERED BY SECTIONS 10.1 AND 10.2 ABOVE, IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER, FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL OR INDIRECT DAMAGES OR LOSSES INCLUDING ANY LOSS OF PROFITS SUFFERED BY DENDREON OR GSK, HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, REGARDLESS OF ANY FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY REMEDY AVAILABLE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.

Article XII
Confidentiality

     12.1 GSK Confidential Information. As used herein, the term “GSK Confidential Information” shall mean all information relating to the biopharmaceutical manufacturing technologies employed by GSK and financial information provided by GSK, confidential business and technical communications, documents and other information, in each case, in any form (whether in written, oral, photographic, electronic, magnetic, computer or other form), including without limitation methods, techniques and processes, and technical and scientific data, unpublished findings, biological material, know how, specifications, patent applications, algorithms, programs, designs, drawings, formulae, engineering, manufacturing, marketing, financial and business plans and data, which GSK or a GSK Affiliate furnishes or discloses to DENDREON or which DENDREON otherwise learns in connection with the negotiation or performance of this Agreement (whether relating to GSK, a GSK Affiliate or any Third Party for which GSK has an obligation of confidentiality).

     12.2 DENDREON Confidential Information. As used herein, the term “DENDREON Confidential Information” shall mean all information owned or possessed by DENDREON that relates to sipuleucel-T, the Product, or the biopharmaceutical manufacturing technologies employed by DENDREON related thereto, in each case, in any form (whether in written, oral, electronic or other form), including without limitation methods, techniques and processes, and technical and scientific data, unpublished findings, biological material, know how, specifications, patent applications, algorithms, programs, designs, drawings, and formulae, and engineering, manufacturing, marketing, financial and business plans and data, which DENDREON or a DENDREON Affiliate furnishes or discloses to GSK or which GSK otherwise learns in connection with the negotiation or performance of this Agreement (whether relating to DENDREON, a DENDREON Affiliate or any Third Party for which for which DENDREON has an obligation of confidentiality).

     12.3 Treatment of Confidential Information. Both during the Term and for a period of five (5) years thereafter, (or such other period as may be mutually agreed in the Quality Agreement for any Confidential Information described therein), DENDREON shall treat all GSK Confidential Information and GSK shall treat all DENDREON Confidential Information in accordance with the requirements of this Article XII. For convenience, GSK Confidential Information and DENDREON Confidential Information are both referred to herein as “Confidential Information” for purposes of establishing the obligations of each Party with regard to the other Party’s Confidential Information.

     (a) Nondisclosure. Confidential Information of the disclosing Party shall be kept strictly confidential by the receiving Party and, except as expressly permitted herein, shall not be disclosed to any Third Party by the receiving Party in any manner whatsoever in whole or in part, without first obtaining the other Party’s prior written consent to such disclosure. The standard of care required of each Party in protecting the confidentiality of the other Party’s Confidential Information shall be at least the same standard of care that the receiving Party uses in protecting its own confidential and trade secret information, but in no event shall either Party use less than a

reasonable standard of care. Confidential Information may be used by the receiving Party only for the purpose of performing under this Agreement.

     (b) Permitted Exceptions. Each Party may disclose the other Party’s Confidential Information (i) to its or its Affiliates, employees or outside advisors, and outside consultants, in connection with this Agreement who reasonably need to know such information for the purpose of advising or assisting it in connection with this Agreement and, in the case of DENDREON, outside consultants, subcontractors and potential collaborators for the development or commercialization of the Product (each, a “Representative”), and (ii) to any Parties required under operation of law. Prior to disclosing any Confidential Information to any Representative pursuant to this Section 12.3(b), the receiving Party will inform such Representative of the proprietary nature of the Confidential Information and will require such Representative to agree in writing (except in the case of outside legal advisors or auditors, who may orally agree) to be bound by the requirements of this Article XII and not to use or disclose the Confidential Information except as permitted herein. Each Party agrees to be responsible for any breach of these confidentiality obligations by its Representatives.

     12.4 Excluded Information. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the requirements of this Article XII shall not apply to any information of either Party which:

     (a) at the time of disclosure hereunder is generally available to the public;

     (b) after disclosure hereunder becomes generally available to the public, except through breach of this Article XII by the receiving Party or its Representatives;

     (c) was not acquired directly or indirectly from the disclosing Party or its Affiliates and which the receiving Party can establish was lawfully in its possession prior to disclosure by the disclosing Party;

     (d) is independently developed by employees or agents of the receiving Party or its Affiliates without the use of or reference to the Confidential Information of the disclosing Party as established by appropriate documentation; or

     (e) becomes available to the receiving Party from a Third Party that is not legally prohibited from disclosing such Confidential Information, provided such information was not acquired directly or indirectly from the disclosing Party or its Affiliates.

     12.5 Notification of Mandatory Disclosure.

     (a) Procedures. In the event that either Party is required by applicable law or regulation or by judicial or administrative process to disclose any part of the other Party’s Confidential Information, such Party shall promptly notify the other Party of each such requirement and identify the documents so required thereby, so that the other Party may seek an appropriate protective order or other remedy and/or waive compliance by the first Party with the provisions of this Article XII.

     (b) Limitations. If, in the absence of such a protective order or such a waiver by the other Party of the provisions of this Article XII, the first Party is nonetheless required by

mandatory applicable law to disclose any part of the other Party’s Confidential Information, the first Party may disclose such of the other Party’s Confidential Information without liability under this Agreement, except that the first Party shall furnish only that portion of the other Party’s Confidential Information which is legally required.

     12.6 Publicity. Neither Party shall issue any press release or otherwise make any public statement or advertisement (an “Announcement”) with respect to this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party. If, in the opinion of counsel, a Party is required by Legal Requirements to make an Announcement, such Party will give the other Party at least fifteen (15) days prior written notice of the text of the Announcement so that the other Party will have an opportunity to comment on the Announcement, provided that if Legal Requirements require that an Announcement be disseminated in less than fifteen (15) days then the time for giving the other Party prior written notice shall be reduced by the minimum amount of time required to comply with such Legal Requirements.

     12.7 Return of Confidential Information. All Confidential Information shall remain the property of the disclosing Party. At any time upon the request of the other Party, to the extent such Confidential Information is not reasonably necessary to enable a Party to perform its obligations under this Agreement, the receiving Party shall promptly return to the other Party or certify in writing the destruction of the other Party’s Confidential Information, and shall destroy all copies thereof, together with all notes, drawings, abstracts and other information relating to the other Party’s Confidential Information prepared by the receiving Party or any of its Representatives, regardless of the medium in which such information is stored; provided however, that the receiving Party may maintain a single archival copy of the other Party’s Confidential Information in the Legal Department’s files for purposes of establishing the extent of disclosures by the other Party under this Agreement. The return and/or destruction of such Confidential Information as provided above shall not relieve the receiving Party of its other obligations under this Article XII.

     12.8 Inadequate Remedy. Each Party acknowledges and expressly agrees that the remedy at law for any breach by it of the terms of this Article XII may be inadequate and that the full amount of damages which would result from such breach are not readily susceptible to being measured in monetary terms. Accordingly, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by either Party of this Article XII, the other Party shall be entitled to immediately pursue injunctive relief prohibiting any such breach and requiring the immediate return of all Confidential Information. The remedies set forth in this Section shall be in addition to any other remedies available for any such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of damages from the breaching Party.

Article XIII
Force Majeure Event

     13.1 General. Neither Party shall be liable to the other on account of any failure to perform or on account of any delay in performance of any obligation under this Agreement, if and to the extent that such failure or delay shall be due to any acts of God, acts of a public enemy, insurrections, civil disorders, riots, embargoes, , or boycotts, fires, explosions, floods, shortages of material, utilities or energy or other unforeseeable causes beyond the reasonable control and without the fault or negligence of the Party so affected and which, by the exercise of its

Commercially Reasonable efforts of diligence and care, such Party could not reasonably have been expected to avoid (a “Force Majeure Event”). The Party experiencing the Force Majeure Event and seeking relief under this Article XIII shall promptly notify the other Party of the Force Majeure Event and use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to overcome such Force Majeure Event. The Party affected shall promptly notify in writing the non-affected Party of the specific causes beyond the control of the affected Party and the probable duration of the Force Majeure Event, and that Party shall be excused from the performance of such obligation to the extent such performance is necessarily prevented, hindered or delayed thereby during the continuance of any such Force Majeure Event. This Agreement, in so far as it relates to such obligation, shall be deemed suspended so long as and to the extent that such cause delays the performance of any Force Majeure Event obligation.

     13.2 Force Majeure Recovery Assessment/Plans. Within sixty (60) days of the Force Majeure Event, or as otherwise agreed between the Parties, the JMC will determine if the Force Majeure Event is recoverable or non-recoverable. A “non-recoverable” Force Majeure Event, for purposes of this Section 13.2, shall mean a Force Majeure Event from which the Parties cannot resume their obligations under this Agreement within six (6) months of the commencement of the Force Majeure Event, or such longer period of time as the Parties may mutually agree. If the JMC determines the Force Majeure Event is non-recoverable, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith the termination of the Agreement. If the JMC determines the Force Majeure Event is recoverable, a recovery plan shall be jointly developed, including an equitable risk-based sharing of costs incurred by GSK during the Force Majeure Event and associated with implementation of the recovery plan.

Article XIV
Term; Termination; Remedies

     14.1 Term. Unless earlier terminated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the term of this Agreement shall extend through December 31, 2015 (the “Term”). DENDREON may request one or more two-year extensions of the Agreement by providing GSK with written notice no less than eighteen (18) months prior to the then applicable expiration date. Any extension of the Term shall not be effective unless memorialized by an amendment to this Agreement executed by the Parties pursuant to Section 16.6.

     14.2 Termination.

     (a) Material Breach. Either Party may terminate this Agreement upon sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to the other Party, if a Party commits a material breach of this Agreement and, following notice by the non-breaching Party, fails to cure such material breach within the sixty (60) day notification period. In the event that a material breach is due solely to DENDREON’s failure to tender payment within sixty (60) days after such payment is due and upon being so notified by GSK in writing, DENDREON fails to fully cure within thirty (30) days after notification, GSK may, in its sole discretion, (i) elect to suspend any further performance under this Agreement until all outstanding payments are received or (ii) terminate this Agreement at the end of such ninety (90) day period.

     (b) Bankruptcy. Either Party may immediately terminate this Agreement upon written notice to the other Party, if a Party becomes insolvent or acknowledges its inability to pay its debts as they become due, files a petition for bankruptcy, makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors or has a receiver, trustee or other court officer appointed for its properties or assets.

     (c) Product Withdrawal. DENDREON shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement upon written notice to GSK in the event sipuleucel-T is permanently withdrawn from the United States market.

     (d) Failure to Implement Process. In the event that there is a failure to implement the Process as more fully described in Section 2.4, either Party may terminate this Agreement as provided in Section 2.4.

     (e) Short Quantity Year. If anytime after January 1, 2011, DENDREON revises the Forecast pursuant to Section 3.3 and such revision results in Firm Orders for the aggregate quantity of Product to be less than [***] during any calendar year (a “Short Quantity Year”), then GSK shall have the right to terminate the Agreement by providing DENDREON with written notice. Unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties, the effective date of such termination shall be eighteen (18) months after the date of such termination notice.

     14.3 Effect of Expiration or Termination.

     (a) In the event of a termination of this Agreement, the following shall occur:

          (1) Return of DENDREON Equipment. GSK shall return to DENDREON at DENDREON’s expense all DENDREON Equipment that has been procured on behalf of DENDREON for which DENDREON has issued payment, as set forth on Schedule 2.2A, as may be amended from time to time by the Parties. Title to any non-portable DENDREON Equipment located in the Suite, as set forth on Schedule 2.2A, shall pass to GSK upon the termination of this Agreement at no cost to GSK, whichever is later. For any equipment that is being returned to DENDREON hereunder, GSK shall arrange for the prompt return of any such equipment at DENDREON’s expense with carriers or subcontractors approved by DENDREON.

          (2) Return of Materials. GSK shall ship unused identified and tracked Materials related to the Process to a location designated by DENDREON at DENDREON’s expense, or instruct GSK to destroy such Materials at DENDREON’s expense. DENDREON shall pay for all Materials that are in process, purchased and in inventory and any commitments made by GSK in the performance of this Agreement that cannot be cancelled without charge.

          (3) GSK shall cooperate with DENDREON as reasonably requested in order to support the transfer of the Process to a DENDREON facility or that of a third party, including providing copies of all necessary batch records, documents and records detailing the performance of the Process by GSK, all of which shall be deemed owned by DENDREON.

Article XV
Governance

     15.1 Governance. Promptly after the Effective Date, each Party shall designate a Project Manager to oversee the technology transfer of the Process and related analytical methods, the Services and the manufacture of the Product. In addition, a Joint Management Committee (“JMC”) shall be formed promptly after the Effective Date in order to resolve issues that may arise in connection with the transfer of the Process, the provision of Services and the manufacture of the Product, including, but not limited to, quality disputes related to manufactured Product and pricing issues related to the Product. The JMC shall be made up of an equal number of representatives from each Party and decisions of the JMC shall require unanimous vote. If the JMC is still unable to resolve the dispute, the JMC may refer the dispute, by notice to the respective officers designated below or such other officers as the Parties may designate in writing from time to time, for attempted resolution by good faith negotiations within thirty (30) days after such notice is received. The designated officers are as follows:

		For GSK:		Vice President, Site Director of GMS Biopharm
		For DENDREON:		Senior Vice President, Operations

If such dispute is not resolved by the end of the thirty (30) day period, the Parties may proceed to pursue whatever legal remedies that may be available to a Party either in law or in equity. In addition to its role in dispute resolution, the JMC shall also be authorized to consider any significant matters or issues that are raised for its consideration by either Party, at that Party’s sole option, regardless of whether the matter or issue has been previously considered by the JMC. GSK shall be entitled to reimbursement of expenses incurred by GSK due to any changes adopted by the JMC that impact GSK’s operating costs. Each Party shall reasonably cooperate with the other Party in connection with the activities to be performed under this Agreement.

     15.2 Remedies. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, none of the remedies set forth in this Agreement are intended to be exclusive, and each Party shall have available to it all remedies available under law or in equity.

     15.3 Injunctive Relief. In the event that either DENDREON or GSK breaches or threatens to breach any provision of Article VII or Article XII of this Agreement, the Parties agree that irreparable harm to the other Party shall be presumed and the damage to such Party would be very difficult to ascertain and monetary damages would be inadequate. Accordingly, in the event of such circumstances, each of DENDREON and GSK agree that, in addition to any other right and remedies available at law or in equity, the other Party shall have the right to obtain injunctive relief from any court of competent jurisdiction.

     15.4 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to principles of conflicts of law.
