C.9 High and Low Flags Test results will be compared to sex stratified ranges and will be flagged as High or Low if the result violates the established range. -15- * AS FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION ON DECEMBER 7, 2001 INFORMATION HAS BEEN OMITTED PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT AND HAS BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SEC. C.10 Telephone Alert and Panic Alert Values Telephone and Panic Alert values will be those levels selected by the Sponsor where such levels are appropriate and available from QLAB. QLAB reserves the right to not implement a Panic Alert level that is inconsistent with generally accepted clinical laboratory standards. QLAB's Laboratory Director will discuss the setting of Panic Alert levels with the Sponsor as appropriate. C.11 Delta Flags Delta flags will be reported for those patients whose laboratory values differ by a specified percentage relative to the laboratory visit established by The Sponsor as the baseline. Delta changes will be reported as +D or -D if the checked value has increased or decreased relative to the reference visit. C.12 Specimen Retention All specimens will be retained for a period of up to 7 days after reporting and will be made available for repeat testing if the elapsed time since specimen collection falls within the established limits of stability. Repeat testing will be performed at no additional charge if it is required due to the negligent acts or omissions of QLAB. C.13 Specimen Management QLAB will be responsible for monitoring and maintaining the temperature and other environmental conditions for frozen specimens which are being stored for an interim period prior to batch testing or shipping to another analysis facility. Storage times and conditions will be specified by The Sponsor in advance of the clinical trial commencement. C.14 Specimen Storage Long term specimen storage is a standard service offering of QLAB. Long term storage is defined as being a period greater than seven (7) days. If The Sponsor requests this service from QLAB, additional fees will be included in the Provisional Services Budget. C.15 Central Laboratory Auditing The Sponsor shall have the ability, upon reasonable notice to QLAB, to visit QLAB and examine all systems, documents and other materials related to the study. If The Sponsor audits QLAB, the parties shall cooperate and work in good faith to resolve any unsatisfactory audit findings. In addition, QLAB shall reasonably cooperate with and shall allow the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and other governmental agencies to visit QLAB and to examine all systems, documents and other materials related to the study. -16- * AS FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION ON DECEMBER 7, 2001 INFORMATION HAS BEEN OMITTED PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT AND HAS BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SEC. FEES AND BILLING D.1 Scheduled Visit Fees Scheduled visit fees which include analytical testing by visit and reporting along with database configuration, maintenance and transfer, project management, and transportation costs are included in Exhibit C. D.2 Kit Construction Fees Kit construction fees which include the cost of visit specific collection kits and materials, as well as shippers, are included in the Provisional Services Budget. Sponsor will be invoiced for these costs at the time they are shipped to the investigator sites. D.3 Transportation Fees All transportation fees in the Provisional Services Budget are estimates. Transportation will be handled as a direct pass through cost to The Sponsor on the monthly invoice. Quintiles Laboratories applies a kit transportation management fee to each kit for the administrative cost of managing the transportation of supplies to the sites and the movement of samples to QLAB and/or a sponsor designated location. D.4 Unscheduled Visit Fees and Optional Test Fees The fee for Services rendered by Quintiles Laboratories which relate to unscheduled visits is set forth in Exhibit C and shall be paid in accordance with the terms set forth therein. Any visits not listed in Exhibit C are considered unscheduled visits, fees for which are to be paid pursuant to the terms of Exhibit C. Unscheduled visit fees are not included in the Provisional Services Budget and, therefore, are not subject to the Initiation Fee. Unscheduled visit fees will be invoiced during the course of the study when they occur. Fees for optional tests are set forth in the Provisional Services Budget and relate to laboratory procedures required by the Protocol but performed only on selected patients under certain conditions, and will be invoiced as appropriate during the course of the study. (EXAMPLE: OPTIONAL TEST - SERUM PREGNANCY). D.5 Expenses QLAB shall be reimbursed by The Sponsor for all-reasonable and necessary travel and lodging expenses incurred in the performance of services provided herein which have been pre-approved by The Sponsor. Additionally, investigator site special requests for supplies that are not included in the bulk supply kit or other special requests shall be approved by and reimbursed by The Sponsor. Payment for such services shall be made to QLAB within thirty (30) days of receipt by The Sponsor -17- * AS FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION ON DECEMBER 7, 2001 INFORMATION HAS BEEN OMITTED PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT AND HAS BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SEC. of invoices or other evidence of such expenditures. Sponsor/CRO provided investigator information (name, address, phone and fax number) will be used when shipping study collection materials to investigators, as well as the construction of investigator data base information. If the Sponsor/CRO provided investigator information is incorrect and QLAB is assessed a transportation penalty fee for non-deliverable packages, QLAB will invoice The Sponsor for assessed penalty fees plus a database change fee of $ * . D.6 Terms of Project Initiation Invoicing After award of the project by The Sponsor, QLAB will invoice a project initiation fee of * of the value of the estimated Provisional Services Budget. The initiation fee will be credited back to The Sponsor against the final invoice for the project. D.7 Invoices and Billing Laboratory services will be invoiced based on the receipt of specimens. An invoice for all visit specific specimens received during the month plus any expenses incurred will be issued to The Sponsor the following month. If requested, QLAB can provide a detailed report listing the invoiced visits by investigator name, accession number, date and visit name. Payment is due within thirty (30) days of the invoice date. Please remit payments to: Quintiles Laboratories Limited P.O. Box 890062 Charlotte, NC ###-###-#### D.8 Test and Fee Cancellation If some or all testing for a particular visit cannot be completed due to circumstances beyond the control of QLAB, all valid test results will be reported and the total visit fee will remain in effect. Examples of circumstances which can result in billable test cancellations would be: (1) failure to include a specimen required to complete testing for the visit, (2) specimen handling prior to courier pickup which does not meet written guidelines established by the laboratory and (3) provision of a QNS specimen for which all requested testing cannot be completed. D.9 Clinical Trial Reconciliation When The Sponsor informs QLAB in writing of the completion or cancellation of the clinical trial, reconciliation will be conducted. This accounting will reconcile any outstanding clinical trial-specific project initiation expenses, scheduled or unscheduled visit fees and unsalvageable specimen collection materials at the investigator sites. A credit or debit invoice will be issued. -18- * AS FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION ON DECEMBER 7, 2001 INFORMATION HAS BEEN OMITTED PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT AND HAS BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SEC. D.10 Cancellation of the Clinical Trial Upon receiving written notification of early cancellation of the clinical trial, QLAB will provide The Sponsor with an accounting of all clinical trial-specific project initiation expenses, scheduled and unscheduled visit fees and unsalvageable specimen collection materials at the investigator sites. QLAB will charge * of the PSB as a cancellation fee. If the value of efforts extended and supplies shipped exceeds * of the total PSB, an invoice will be presented for those fees. D.11 Approval of Fee and Period in Force The provisional fee schedule will expire 60 days from the date of this Confirmation of Central Laboratory Services. Upon receiving verbal approval from The Sponsor, QLAB will implement project initiation activities as outlined previously in Sections A.2 and D.6. If there is a substantive change in the expected number of investigators, number or schedule of visits, testing requirements, anticipated commencement date, length of project or overall protocol specific database design, QLAB will revise the Provisional Services Budget to reflect the increase or decrease in the scope of work. Otherwise, the fees will remain in effect for 12 months from the date study kits were first forwarded to investigator sites. QLAB fee schedule will be subject to review on an annual basis and will be increased for the next 12 month period based upon the average percent change in the US Consumer Price Index over the preceding 12 month period. In the unforeseen event of governmentally mandated changes or transportation industry regulation changes which require significant changes in the conduct of the clinical laboratory industry, QLAB will contact The Sponsor if there will be any cost impact on the study in progress. Additionally, if QLAB courier fees increase 10% or more, or a fuel surcharge is imposed on QLAB for courier services, The Sponsor will be notified immediately of the cost impact on the study in progress. D.12 Currency Exchange The currency to be used to invoice and for payment is set forth in this Provisional Services Budget attached hereto as Exhibit C (the "PSB"). If QLAB is to perform services whereby it earns fees or incurs expenses that exceed * U.S. dollars in a currency(ies) differing from the invoice and payment currency (hereafter, "foreign currency(ies)"), the initial foreign currency exchange rates used as a basis for calculating the PSB (the "PSB Rates") shall be stated in the PSB. For each monthly invoice prepared by QLAB, QLAB will obtain the applicable foreign currency exchange spot rates published in the Wall Street Journal {or the Financial Times for European-based Projects} on the last business Friday of the month to which the invoice relates (the "Current Rates"). FOR MILESTONE-BASED INVOICES, THE CURRENT RATES SHALL BE THE AVERAGE OF SUCH FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE SPOT RATES FOR THE LAST BUSINESS FRIDAY OF EACH MONTH BETWEEN MILESTONE INVOICES. If the Current Rates differ from the PSB Rates, a currency adjustment will be calculated. The currency adjustment will be calculated as the difference between the amount to be invoiced at the Current Rates and the amount to be invoiced at the PSB Rates. If the amount to be invoiced at the Current Rates exceeds or is less than the amount to be invoiced at the PSB Rates, QLAB will reflect -19- * AS FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION ON DECEMBER 7, 2001 INFORMATION HAS BEEN OMITTED PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT AND HAS BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SEC. a debit or credit adjustment, as appropriate to the monthly invoice. The PSB will state for each currency its percentage of the total fees (and expenses, if applicable), after its conversion into the invoice and payment currency, which will be applied to all invoices. If a currency referenced within the PSB is replaced by the Euro or otherwise ceases to become legal tender, the applicable replacement currency will be substituted for such currency for purposes of this provision at an established conversion rate. -20- * AS FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION ON DECEMBER 7, 2001 INFORMATION HAS BEEN OMITTED PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT AND HAS BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SEC.
