All costs associated with such third-party testing shall be at Liquidia’ expense unless the tested Product is deemed by such third-party to be defective or not in compliance with the Specifications or this Agreement, in which case all such costs must be promptly paid by Plastiape.

Liquidia will be responsible for customer response communications with respect to such complaints. Plastiape, upon Liquidia’s reasonable request and at Plastiape’s expense, shall provide all reasonable assistance and material needed for such response communications. Plastiape shall reimburse Liquidia for all reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred by Liquidia with respect to activities under this Section 8.6 if the complaint is due to the failure of the Products to conform to the Specifications.

8.9Any material complaint, including, but not limited to, any complaint relating to safety and/or efficacy of the Products, received by Plastiape for the Products or similar products manufactured by Plastiape will be

​

forwarded to Liquidia as soon as possible but in no event later than five (5) Business Days after receipt thereof via written communication.

Examples of such information include any contamination, stability failure, certain confirmed Product complaints or any significant chemical, physical or other change or deterioration in the distributed Products.

8.11In the case where a field alert or recall is deemed necessary by a regulatory authority or by Plastiape or by Liquidia, the Parties will jointly develop a strategy to handle such field alert or recall. Liquidia will be responsible for communication to its customers regarding such recall and for retrieving any Products that have been sold to its customers.

8.12In the event any governmental agency having jurisdiction shall request or order, or if

Liquidia shall determine to undertake, any corrective action with respect to any Product (or any finished product containing or contained in any Product), including any recall, corrective action or market action, and the cause or basis of such recall or action is attributable to a breach by Plastiape of any of its warranties, guarantees, representations, obligations or covenants contained in this Agreement or the Specifications, then Plastiape shall be liable, and shall reimburse Liquidia for the reasonable costs of such action, including the cost of any Product (or any finished product containing, contained in or included in a kit with any Product) which is affected.

​

12.1 Plastiape shall maintain and preserve full and accurate books and records of all matters relating to the Product (excluding any financial documentation), including, but not limited to those records required to be maintained under cGMP (ISO13485 and 21 CFR Part 820), and any other records or documentation required to be maintained pursuant to the Quality Agreement.

12.2Liquidia and its authorized representatives have the right to inspect and examine all such books and records (excluding any financial documentation) and to access any facilities at which the Product is manufactured, tested or stored, with prior written notification of twenty (20) Business Days, during normal business hours. During any such inspection, Plastiape shall permit Liquidia upon at least twenty (20) Business Days’ prior written notice and during normal business hours during Business Days and without interruption of manufacturing process of Plastiape (other than making personnel available as necessary for the conduct of the audit), access to those areas of Plastiape’s manufacturing facilities where any of the Products are manufactured, tested, packaged, stored, handled and shipped and access to the regulatory, manufacturing, testing and quality assurance records for the Products. On any inspection or audit by Liquidia or by any governmental agency which results in required corrective actions, Plastiape shall have such time as is provided by such agency or as is commercially reasonable, as the case may be, to take all needed steps to implement the corrective actions identified in the aforementioned audits or inspections. Nothing in this provision is to be construed so as to place a duty on Liquidia to make any such inspection or audit or to determine whether or not Plastiape is in compliance with its obligations hereunder or with applicable laws and regulations. No determination by Liquidia that Plastiape is or is not in compliance shall be construed as relieving Plastiape from its duty to determine if it is in such compliance with such laws and regulations. The foregoing notwithstanding, in the event any such inspection or examination is “for cause” as a result of any Product defects, nonconformance, material breach of this Agreement, failure to comply with regulatory requirements

​

or adverse finding of any regulatory authority, then the references to “twenty (20) Business Days” in this Section 12.2 shall be deemed to be amended to “ten (10) Business Days.”

12.3Plastiape shall maintain and preserve full and accurate records and files which Plastiape is required to maintain in connection with the Product by law, including cGMP, or any regulatory authority.

13.2Each Party agrees to provide the other Party with prompt written notice if:

(a)there is a Change of Control of the Party;

(b)the Party is in breach of this Agreement; or

(c)Plastiape becomes aware of any issues or nonconformances with respect of any Product, any failure of any Products to meet the Specifications or any other matter which may adversely affect the supply or use of the Products.

13.3At Liquidia’s cost and expense, Plastiape agrees to cooperate with Liquidia in doing any reasonable act or thing which is necessary or desirable to facilitate Liquidia’s compliance with any regulatory requirements.

13.5 To the extent legally permissible by law, Plastiape agrees to forward any such communications (whether oral or written) received by Plastiape from a regulatory authority in relation to the Product to Liquidia within three (3) Business Days of receipt.

​

14.Audit.

14.1 In addition to Liquidia’s rights pursuant to Section 12, Liquidia (or any third-party approved by Liquidia, such case, subject to a confidentiality agreement and acceptance of safety and health rules at Plastiape’s site) shall have the right, upon prior written notification of twenty (20) Business Days to Plastiape and during regular business hours and without interruption of manufacturing process (other than making personnel available as necessary for the conduct of the audit), to inspect and audit the facilities being used by Plastiape for production and storage of the Product to assure compliance by Plastiape with current cGMP and other applicable laws, rules and regulations and with other provisions of this Agreement. The foregoing notwithstanding, in the event any such audit is “for cause” as a result of any Product defects, nonconformance, material breach of this Agreement, failure to comply with regulatory requirements or adverse finding of any regulatory authority, then the references to “twenty (20) Business Days” in this Section 14.1 shall be deemed to be amended to “ten (10) Business Days.”

14.2Plastiape will within thirty days remedy or cause the remedy of any deficiencies which may be noted in any such audit or, if any such deficiencies cannot reasonably be remedied within such thirty day period, present to Liquidia a written plan to remedy such deficiencies as soon as possible. The failure by Plastiape to remedy or cause the remedy of any such deficiencies within such thirty day period or to present such a plan within such thirty day period and then use its reasonable commercial efforts to remedy or cause the remedy of such deficiencies in accordance with such written plan, constitutes a material breach of this Agreement.

​

14.3The granting to Liquidia of certain audit rights shall in no way relieve Plastiape of any of its obligations under this Agreement or other legal obligations, nor does such provision require Liquidia to conduct any such audits.

​

15.Insurance.
