(a)Schedule 3.18(a) sets forth a true and complete list of all issued, registered and applied-for Intellectual Property owned or purported to be owned by Flaskworks. Flaskworks is the sole and exclusive beneficial and record owner of all of such Intellectual Property, and all such Intellectual Property is valid, subsisting and, to Flaskworks’ knowledge, enforceable. Flaskworks owns or otherwise holds valid rights to use all Intellectual Property used or contemplated to be used in the operation of its business as currently conducted, and all such rights are free of all Encumbrances (except Permitted Encumbrances). The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and each of the Ancillary Agreements will not alter or impair the ownership or right of Flaskworks to use any Intellectual Property used or contemplated to be used in the operation of its business as currently conducted. The development, manufacture, sale, distribution or other commercial exploitation of products, and the provision of any services, by or on behalf of Flaskworks, and the operation of the businesses of Flaskworks, in each case, as conducted on the date hereof and as conducted since January 28, 2016, does not infringe upon or, misappropriate, in each case, in any material respect, and has not infringed upon or misappropriated any Intellectual Property of any third party in any material respect. To the best knowledge of the Sellers, no valid basis for any such infringement or misappropriation claim exists. Flaskworks has taken reasonable measures to protect the secrecy, confidentiality and value of all trade secrets used in the business of Flaskworks, including entering into appropriate confidentiality agreements with all officers, directors, employees, and other Persons with access to such trade secrets. None of such trade secrets has been disclosed or authorized to be disclosed to any Person other than to employees or agents of Flaskworks for use in connection with the business of Flaskworks or pursuant to a confidentiality or non-disclosure agreement that reasonably protects the interest of Flaskworks in and to such matters. To the best knowledge of the Sellers, no unauthorized disclosure of any such trade secrets has occurred. All Intellectual Property developed by or for Flaskworks was conceived, invented, reduced to practice, authored or otherwise created solely by either employees of Flaskworks acting within the scope of their employment, or independent contractors of Flaskworks pursuant to agreements containing an assignment of Intellectual Property to Flaskworks. No Person who was involved in, or who contributed to, the creation or development of any Intellectual Property, has performed services for the United States or a foreign government, university, college, or other educational or medical institution or research center in a manner that would affect Flaskworks’ rights in the Intellectual Property.

(b)Flaskworks (i) takes reasonable measures, directly or indirectly, to ensure the confidentiality, privacy and security of customer, employee and other confidential information and (ii) complies and has complied with applicable data protection, privacy and similar Laws, directives and codes of practice in any jurisdiction relating to any data processed by Flaskworks.

Section 3.19Certain Contractual Arrangements. None of Mr. Shashi Murthy, Ms. Lekhana Bhandary and Mr. Andrew Kozbial is party to any Contract that would or would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially impair such Person’s ability to work in the Business, as conducted by Flaskworks or otherwise, in each case, on Buyer’s behalf, following the Closing.

Section 3.20Brokers. No broker, finder or agent will have any claim against the Buyer (or after the Closing, Flaskworks) for any fees or commissions in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and each of the Ancillary Agreements based on arrangements made by or on behalf of the Sellers or Flaskworks.

Section 4.3Required Filings and Consents. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties made by the Sellers in Article II hereof, the execution, delivery and performance by the Buyer of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements and the consummation by the Buyer of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby do not and will not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or notice to any Governmental Authority, except for any filings with the U.S. securities and exchange commission and such other consents, approvals, registrations, filings or notices the failure of which to be obtained or made, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to materially impair the ability of Buyer to timely consummate, or prevent, any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements.

Effective as of the Closing, the Sellers duly and validly transferred or caused to be transferred to Flaskworks without any additional consideration all Permits that are held in the name of any Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than Flaskworks) on behalf of Flaskworks and used in connection with the business of Flaskworks, and the representations, covenants and agreements contained herein shall apply to such Permits as if held by Flaskworks on the date hereof.

Section 5.2Confidentiality.

(a)From and after the Closing, until the third anniversary of the Closing Date, each Seller shall not, and each Seller shall cause its Affiliates (other than Flaskworks) and its and their respective Representatives not to, use for any purpose other than to benefit the Buyer or disclose to any third Person, any Confidential Information; provided, however, that any such Person may disclose Confidential Information to the extent (i) such disclosure is required by Law or legal process, (ii) unless impossible or otherwise prohibited by Law or legal process, such Person notifies the Buyer of the existence, terms and circumstances surrounding such disclosure obligation and consults with the Buyer on the advisability of taking steps available under applicable Law to resist or narrow such disclosure obligation, (iii) such Person cooperates reasonably with any efforts of the Buyer, if any, to obtain an order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to the disclosed Confidential Information, and (iv) such Person discloses only that portion of the Confidential Information that it is so required to disclose. Effective as of the Closing, the Sellers hereby assign to the Buyer all of the Sellers’ right, title and interest in and to any confidentiality agreements entered into by the Sellers (or their Affiliates or Representatives) in connection with any transaction involving the acquisition or purchase of all or any portion of Flaskworks. From and after the Closing, the Sellers shall take all actions reasonably requested by the Buyer, at Buyer’s sole cost, in order to assist in enforcing the rights so assigned. For the avoidance of doubt, Sellers who are employed by Flaskworks or Buyer following the Closing shall be permitted to use Confidential Information in the course of performing their respective responsibilities pursuant to such employment (during the course of such employment).

(b)Corning has used, and if such process has not been completed as of the date hereof, will use as rapidly as practicable, its commercially reasonable efforts to destroy or to return to Flaskworks any Confidential Information of Flaskworks, including any drawings, specifications or other information and materials, in any embodiment, relating to the design, development and/or operation of any equipment and/or systems (including any software) related to the Flaskworks Business, in each case, its possession or under its control (including any copies, excerpts and/or summaries thereof), including by expunging all such information from any storage media or device containing such information, provided that (i) it is not required to expunge any system back-up media such as copies of any computer records or files containing Confidential Information created solely pursuant to automatic archiving or back-up procedures on secured central storage servers and that cannot reasonably be expunged and (ii) it is permitted to retain one copy of the Confidential Information solely for the purpose of monitoring compliance with its obligations under Section 5.2 (Confidentiality) and agrees that it shall not

knowingly access, review or distribute any of such materials other than to the extent it determines in good faith that doing so is necessary to monitor compliance with its obligations under Section 5.2 (Confidentiality). Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, Corning and its Affiliates will continue to be bound by their obligations under Section 5.2 (Confidentiality), including for the avoidance of doubt with respect to the information retained pursuant to the foregoing clause (ii).

Section 5.3Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation.

(a)For a period of six (6) months following the Closing with respect to Andrew Kozbial, and for a period of eighteen (18) months following the Closing for each of Jennifer Rossi and Shashi Murthy, each such Person shall not, and shall cause its respective Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly through any Person or contractual arrangement:

(i)engage or assist in the design, development, optimization, evaluation, testing, production, sale, licensing, usage (whether for proprietary operations, contract services or otherwise) or commercialization of any bioreactor or other equipment or system for the culture, maturation, activation, transformation or other production or manipulation of any type of living cell (the “Business”), or perform management, executive or supervisory functions with respect to, own, operate, join, control, render financial assistance to, receive any economic benefit from, exert any influence upon, participate in, render services or advice to, or allow any of its officers or employees to be connected as an officer, employee, partner, member, stockholder, consultant or otherwise with, any business or Person that competes in whole or in part with the Business; provided, however, that for purposes of Section 5.3, ownership of securities having no more than two percent of the outstanding voting power of any competitor which are listed on any national securities exchange shall not be deemed to be a violation of Section 5.3 so long as the Person owning such securities has no other association or relationship with such competitor. For the avoidance of doubt, Sellers who are employed by Flaskworks or Buyer following the Closing shall not be restricted by this Section 5.3(a)(i) with respect to the performance of their respective responsibilities pursuant to such employment (during the course of such employment) and the applicable period for each such Person set forth in Section 5.3(a) shall continue to run during the course of such employment;

(ii)solicit, recruit or hire any person who at any time on or after the date of this Agreement is a Covered Employee (as hereinafter defined); provided, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (A) a general solicitation to the public of general advertising or similar methods of solicitation by search firms not specifically directed at Covered Employees or (B) such Seller or any of its respective Affiliates from soliciting, recruiting or hiring any Covered Employee who has ceased to be employed or retained by Flaskworks, the Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates for at least 12 months. For purposes of Section 5.3, “Covered Employees” means, collectively, officers, managers and employees of Flaskworks, the Buyer and their respective Affiliates. For the avoidance of doubt, Sellers who are employed by Flaskworks or Buyer following the Closing shall not be restricted by this Section 5.3(a)(ii) with respect to the performance of their respective responsibilities pursuant to such employment (during the course of such employment) and the applicable period for each such Person set forth in Section 5.3(a) shall continue to run during the course of such employment;

(iii)solicit Business from any Customer (as hereinafter defined), refer Business from any Customer to any Person or be paid commissions based on Business sales received from any Customer by any Person. For purposes of Section 5.3, the term “Customer” means any Person to which any Seller, Flaskworks, the Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates provided products or services of the Business during the 12-month period prior to the time at which a determination must be made as to whether such Person is a Customer; provided, that the foregoing shall not prohibit any referral of Business by any Seller or Flaskworks to the Buyer; or

(iv)disparage the Buyer or any of its Affiliates in any way that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the goodwill, reputation or business relationships of the Buyer or any of its Affiliates with the public generally, or with any of their customers, suppliers or employees.

(b)Each Seller acknowledges that the covenants of the Sellers set forth in Section 5.3 are an essential element of this Agreement and that any breach by such Persons of any provision of Section 5.3 will result in irreparable injury to the Buyer. Each Seller acknowledges that in the event of such a breach, in addition to all other remedies available at law, the Buyer shall be entitled to equitable relief, including injunctive relief, and an equitable accounting of all earnings, profits or other benefits arising therefrom, as well as such other damages as may be appropriate. Each Seller has independently consulted with its counsel and after such consultation agrees that the covenants set forth in Section 5.3 are reasonable and proper to protect the legitimate interest of the Buyer.

(c)If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the character, duration or geographical scope of the provisions of Section 5.3 are unreasonable, it is the intention and the agreement of the parties that these provisions shall be construed by the court in such a manner as to impose only those restrictions on the Sellers’ conduct that are reasonable in light of the circumstances and as are necessary to assure to the Buyer the benefits of this Agreement. If, in any judicial proceeding, a court shall refuse to enforce all of the separate covenants of Section 5.3 because taken together they are more extensive than necessary to assure to the Buyer the intended benefits of this Agreement, it is expressly understood and agreed by the parties that the provisions hereof that, if eliminated, would permit the remaining separate provisions to be enforced in such proceeding, shall be deemed eliminated, for the purposes of such proceeding, from this Agreement.

(d)Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Buyer hereby acknowledges that Jennifer Rossi is employed by Kerafast, Inc. and its affiliate Absolute Antibody Limited and such employment, as it involves or relates to antibodies or reagents (but not including any work with respect to the manufacture of systems or processes), shall not to be deemed to be in violation of Section 5.3(a)(i) or Section 5.3(a)(ii).

Section 5.4Affiliate Arrangements; Release of Obligations.

(a)Except as set forth on Schedule 5.4, all Contracts between Flaskworks, on the one hand, and the Sellers and their respective Affiliates (other than Flaskworks), on the other

hand, were cancelled without any consideration or further liability to any party and without the need for any further documentation, effective as of immediately prior to the Closing.

(b)Effective as of the Closing, each Seller does hereby, for itself and each of its Affiliates (excluding Flaskworks) and each of its and their Related Parties (each, a “Seller Releasing Party”), irrevocably release, waive and absolutely forever discharge Flaskworks and all its respective, past, present and future directors, officers, managers, agents, consultants, representatives, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Released Persons”), from any and all actions, causes of action, suits, debts, dues, sums of money, accounts, bonds, bills, covenants, Contracts, controversies, agreements, promises, variances, trespasses, damages, judgments, executions, claims and demands of every type and nature whatsoever, known or unknown, at law or in equity (each a “Claim” and collectively, the “Claims”), that any Seller Releasing Party has had, may now have or may hereinafter have against any Released Person relating to, arising out of or resulting from any matter, act or omission whatsoever during all periods through the Closing and whether or not first asserted before or after the Closing (together, the “Released Matters”). The Released Matters shall not include (i) any agreement listed on Schedule 5.4, (ii) this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, (iii) the rights expressly contemplated to survive the Closing pursuant to Section 5.5, and (iv) any right of any Seller Releasing Party that is a natural person to salary, bonus, expense reimbursement or other ordinary compensation earned in the capacity as a manager, officer or employee of Flaskworks and that is set forth on Schedule 5.4(b)(iv). It is the intention of such Seller in providing this release to the Released Persons, and in giving and receiving the consideration called for in this Agreement, that this release shall be effective as a full and final accord and satisfaction and general release of and from all Released Matters and the final resolution by the applicable Seller Releasing Party, Flaskworks and its subsidiaries of all Released Matters.

Section 5.5Manager and Officer Indemnification. Prior to Closing, Flaskworks purchased a D&O tail policy to be in effect for, and with a claims period of, six years following the Closing (the “Tail Policy”). Buyer shall take no steps to terminate the D&O tail policy during such six year period and shall not be required to pay any premium, fee, deductible or other amount with respect to the Tail Policy. Any indemnification payable by Flaskworks or Buyer (such paying party, the “Payor”) with respect to the managers and officers of Flaskworks (including for the avoidance of doubt with respect to any Person represented by such a manager and their respective affiliates) will be limited to proceeds paid to the Payor on account of valid insurance claims made under the Tail Policy. In the event that the Buyer or Flaskworks or any of their respective successors or assigns (a) consolidates with or merges into any other Person or (b) transfers all or substantially all of its properties or assets to any Person, then, and in each case, the successors and assigns of Buyer or Flaskworks, as the case may be, shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.5. The obligations of Buyer under this Section 5.5 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely any Indemnified Person without the consent of such affected Person.

Section 5.6Public Announcements. No party to this Agreement shall, and each shall cause its Affiliates and its and their Representatives not to, issue any press release or make any other public statement with respect to this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and the other transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, except for any such disclosure, release or public

statement that is necessary under applicable Law or stock exchange (including for this purpose, the OTC Markets) rule, reporting obligation or similar requirement.

Section 5.7Further Assurances. Following the Closing, each party hereto shall from time to time do such further acts and execute and deliver such further documents regarding its obligations hereunder as may be reasonably required for the purpose of (a) accomplishing the purposes of this Agreement or (b) assuring and confirming the validity of any documents of conveyance to be delivered at Closing.

The representations and warranties of Flaskworks, the Sellers and the Buyer contained in this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and any schedule, certificate or other document delivered pursuant hereto or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall be continuing and survive the Closing for a period of twelve (12) months, and shall in no way be affected by any investigation or knowledge of the subject matter thereof made by or on behalf of the Sellers or the Buyer; provided, however that (a) the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.14 (Taxes) shall survive until the close of business on the 90th day following the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (giving effect to any waiver, mitigation or extension thereof) and (b) any representation in the case of fraud shall survive the Closing for a period of 20 years. The covenants and agreements of the parties contained in this Agreement and in any Ancillary Agreement shall survive the Closing until the expiration of the statute of limitations following the date all performance thereunder was due to be performed; provided, however, that the obligation to provide indemnification pursuant to and in accordance with the other provisions of this Article VI shall survive for a period of 20 years.

Section 6.2Indemnification by the Sellers. Each Seller, severally and not jointly, shall save, defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Buyer and its Affiliates (including Flaskworks) and the respective Representatives, successors and assigns of each of the foregoing, from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, claims, interest, awards, judgments, penalties, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in investigating, preparing or defending the foregoing) (hereinafter collectively, “Losses”), asserted against, incurred, sustained or suffered by any of the foregoing as a result of, arising out of or relating to:

(a)any breach of any representation or warranty made by such Seller in Article II of this Agreement, or any Ancillary Agreement, schedule, certificate or other document delivered pursuant hereto or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby;

(b)any breach of any representation or warranty made by Flaskworks contained in this Agreement, or any Ancillary Agreement, schedule, certificate or other document delivered pursuant hereto or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby;

(c)any breach of any covenant or agreement by such Seller or Flaskworks contained in this Agreement or in any Ancillary Agreement;

(d)(i) any and all taxes (including any interest, additions and penalties with respect thereto, but excluding the portion of any Transfer Taxes payable by Buyer pursuant to Section 8.4) imposed on Flaskworks, or for which Flaskworks is liable, with respect to all periods ending on or before the Closing Date, or a pro rata portion (based on the proration under Section 8.2) of any such taxes for any period that ends after but includes the Closing Date or (ii) any and all income taxes (including any interest, additions and penalties with respect thereto) incurred or otherwise payable by the Sellers as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby;

(g)any claims by any member, officer, manager, employee or other agent of Flaskworks for indemnification required under Flaskworks’ organizational documents (including under the New Flaskworks LLC Agreement) or otherwise by reason of the fact that such Person was a member, officer, manager, employee or other agent of Flaskworks for acts or omissions occurring prior to the Closing, in each case, to the extent not reimbursed by applicable insurance; and

any and all (i) Transaction Expenses and (ii) Indebtedness.

The Buyer shall save, defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Sellers and their respective Representatives, successors and assigns of each of the foregoing from and against any and all Losses asserted against, incurred, sustained or suffered by any of the foregoing as a result of, arising out of or relating to:

(a)any breach of any representation or warranty made by the Buyer contained in this Agreement, Ancillary Agreement or any schedule, certificate or other document delivered pursuant hereto or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby; and

(b)any breach of any covenant or agreement by the Buyer contained in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.

Section 6.4Procedures. Whenever any claim shall arise for indemnification hereunder, the party entitled to indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly provide written notice of such claim to the party obligated to provide such indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) describing such claim in reasonable detail (such notice, a “Claim Notice”). The failure to promptly deliver a Claim Notice, however, shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article VI except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure. In connection with any claim giving rise to indemnity hereunder resulting from or arising out of any claim, action or demand by a

Person who is not a party to this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party, if it acknowledges in writing its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party with respect to such claim, shall have the right, at its sole cost and expense and upon written notice to the Indemnified Party within 15 days of receipt of a Claim Notice in respect of such claim, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party may not assume the defense of any claim for equitable or injunctive relief or any claim that would impose criminal liability on the Indemnified Party (or its Affiliates), and the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, any such claim. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of such a claim, the Indemnified Party may participate in the defense of any such claim, action or demand with its counsel and at its own cost and expense. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of any such claim, the Indemnified Party may, but shall not be obligated to, defend against such claim in such manner as it may deem appropriate (and the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate with the Indemnified Party with respect to such defense), including, but not limited to, settling such claim, after giving notice to the Indemnifying Party, on such terms as the Indemnified Party may deem appropriate. No action taken by the Indemnified Party in accordance with such defense and settlement shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations with respect to any damages resulting therefrom. In no event may the Indemnifying Party settle any such claim without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

Section 6.5Limitations on Indemnification.

(a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein the total aggregate amount in respect of which the Sellers shall be liable for indemnification under any provision of Section 6.2 shall not exceed (i) fifteen percent (15%) of the Purchase Price received by the Sellers hereunder and, (ii) with respect to each Seller, shall not exceed the proportionate amount of the Purchase Price received by the Sellers hereunder, provided, however, that the foregoing clause (i) shall not apply to Losses claimed pursuant to Sections 6.2(c) (but only with respect to a breach of Section 5.2 or 5.3), 6.2(d), 6.2(e), 6.2(f), 6.2(g) and 6.2(h) or arising out of or relating to the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.14 (Taxes) (the maximum aggregate amount in respect of which the Sellers shall be liable for indemnification shall not exceed the Purchase Price received by the Sellers hereunder); and the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) shall not apply in cases involving fraud. For the avoidance of doubt, no Seller shall be liable for the fraud or intentional misrepresentation of any other Seller.

(b)For purposes of calculating the amount of any Loss arising from a breach of any representation or warranty subject to indemnification under Section 6.2(a), as well as for purposes of determining whether there has been a breach of any such representation or warranty, all “material”, “materially”, “in all material respects”, “Material Adverse Effect”, and other like qualifications shall be disregarded.

(c)For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, nothing herein shall be deemed to limit Buyer’s remedies against Sellers or any other Person with respect to infringement or similar impermissible uses by such Persons of the intellectual property of or licensed by Flaskworks and/or the Buyer and its Affiliates.

Section 6.6Tax Treatment. The parties agree to treat any amounts payable pursuant to this Article VI as an adjustment to the purchase price for all tax-related purposes to the extent permitted by Law.

The Client acknowledges that, in accordance with the engagement letter dated as of May 13, 2016 (the "Engagement Letter"), the Firm has provided, and may continue to provide, legal and other professional services to the Client for which the Client is liable to the Firm for fees, costs, and expenses (“Legal Fees”). This letter modifies the payment obligations under the Engagement Letter.

Client agrees that as of August 28, 2020, the unpaid balance of the Legal Fees is $361,627.10 (the “Existing Balance”), which is now fully and unconditionally due and payable in cash by the Client to the Firm, without offset, defense, discount, or counterclaim of any kind, nature, or description whatsoever. The Existing Balance reflects all amounts reflected through our invoice dated August 25, 2020, does not include any time that we have worked but not yet billed or any expenses which we have incurred but not yet invoiced for reimbursement.

Concurrently with the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement (the “Closing”), the Payor agrees to pay to the Firm in immediately available funds $271,220.32 towards satisfaction of the Existing Balance. Payor agrees to pay the balance of the Existing Balance in two (2) equal installments of $45,203.39, the first thereof no later than the thirtieth (30th) day following the Closing, an amount equal to , and the second thereof no later than the sixtieth (60th) day following the Closing, in each case in immediately available funds.

Interest shall accrue thereafter on any and all amounts owed to the Firm at the rate of twelve percent (12.0%) per annum, which shall be due and payable upon demand. Nothing in this letter shall impair any lien or other rights the Firm may have with respect to the assets or properties of the Client, all of which are expressly preserved.

Each of the Client and NWBio acknowledges that the Firm as advised the Client and NWBio to, and the Client and NWBio has had a reasonable opportunity to, seek the advice of independent legal counsel in connection with this letter.
