Article Two. Supply of Feedstock

2.01 Supply:

During the Term, ONC shall supply Feedstock to Omthera and its Licensees based on FX Orders placed by Omthera and forecasts provided by Omthera in accordance with Section 2.03.

2.02 Price:

(1) Initial Price:

The supply price for Feedstock (the “Supply Price”) shall be determined by the quantity of Feedstock to be purchased in a particular Calendar Year, as set out below and as adjusted in accordance with Section 2.02(2):

(a) […***…]

(b) […***…]

(d) […***…]

All pricing set out herein is Ex Works ONC’s facility designated by ONC in its acknowledgement of each FX Order.

(2) Price adjustment:

The Supply Price is based on assumptions related to the cost of Crude Fish Oil and inflation existing at the time of execution of the Agreement and is subject to adjustment as provided for in this Section 2.02(2).

(a) Adjustment for Cost of Crude Fish Oil:

The Supply Price for the Feedstock shall vary according to changes in the price of “Crude Fish Oil”, using […***…] crude fish oil as a reasonable proxy to indicate increase and decreases in the market price of fish oil. Sixty (60) days following […***…], ONC shall calculate the weighted average export price for […***…] Crude Fish Oil based on information published by […***…] and shall adjust the Supply Price to directly reflect the increase or decrease of the cost of Crude Fish Oil as illustrated in Schedule “B”. ONC will provide Omthera with copies of such information as published by […***…]. For the purposes of this

Under 17 C.F.R. Sections 200.80(b)(4)

and 230.406

adjustment, the baseline cost of Crude Fish Oil as of the Effective Date is […***…]. ONC shall source Incoming Fish Oil from […***…], and in the event of any Force Majeure Event that requires ONC to source Incoming Fish Oil from any fishery other than […***…], ONC will first seek to source Incoming Fish Oil from the fisheries in […***…], and if a fishery outside those areas is required to be used based on a Force Majeure Event, the Parties will cooperate to qualify such new source of Incoming Fish Oil, and the actual acquisition cost of Incoming Fish Oil shall be used if no general information like that provided by the […***…] described above is available for the fishery used. ONC will provide Omthera with all reasonable supporting documentation, and Omthera will have the right to have the calculation of any such price adjustment verified by an independent expert at Omthera’s cost. At either Party’s request, the Parties shall qualify additional fisheries.

(b) Adjustment for CCPI

ONC has provided pricing over the Term based on the assumption that its variable costs associated with labour, transportation, duties/taxes, utilities and raw materials directly related to the manufacturing process (other than Crude Fish Oil) will remain stable. ONC shall have the right to increase the prices charged for the Feedstock pursuant to Section 2.02(1) […***…] after the Effective Date […***…] to reflect any increases in the Canadian Consumer Price Index published by Statistics Canada for […***…].

(3) Adjustment of Specifications

(a) In the event that any change in the Specifications necessitated by a mandatory change in regulations imposed by a Relevant Regulatory Authority in order to maintain the Marketing Authorisation for a Finished Product increases or decreases ONC’s costs related to the production of Feedstock, the Supply Price shall be adjusted accordingly so that such incremental increase or decrease in cost is directly reflected in the relevant price, provided that only the relevant portion of such costs directly and specifically applicable to production of Feedstock will be included in such adjustment. In the event of any change in regulations after the Effective Date that may require a capital outlay specific to the change by ONC in order that the Feedstock complies with such regulation, the Supply Price shall be adjusted so that ONC recovers all of its capital outlay[…***…], provided that […***…]. In any such case, before incurring any such costs or making such capital

outlay, the Parties shall meet and discuss. For clarity, by “directly and specifically” as used above it is understood that […***…]. Any change in Specifications required under this Section 2.02(3)(a) must be agreed-upon by ONC and ONC shall have the option to terminate this Agreement in the event that it concludes it is not able to supply Feedstock that complies with a proposed new Specifications or is unwilling to make the requisite capital expenditure based in the change in Specifications (in the event that Omthera does not elect to pay all such expenditure), provided that the Parties will meet to discuss any such new proposed Specifications and ONC will use reasonable efforts to meet such proposed new Specifications taking into account any costs Omthera may pay as stated above.

(b) In the event that a change is required in the Specifications, Incoming Fish Oil Specifications or Production Standards as requested by Omthera, then ONC shall promptly and in good faith consider such changes and shall advise Omthera of any changes in the Supply Price (subject to Section 2.02) that would apply if such changes were implemented. If required by Omthera, the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to promptly implement the changes on terms as the Parties agree in writing.

(c) Omthera will, to the extent that it is able to do so, keep ONC apprised of any anticipated or proposed changes to Production Standards or other regulatory matters or consultations or requests for comments being carried out with Relevant Regulatory Authorities that may have an effect on ONC and the Feedstock supplied hereunder.

(4) Quality and Technical Standards

ONC will perform its obligations under this Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Quality Technical Agreement and in compliance with cGMPs, all Applicable Laws, Marketing Authorisations, the Specifications, and any reasonable written instructions provided by Omthera as agreed by ONC. All Feedstock will be produced, manufactured, packaged,

labeled and shipped in accordance with this Agreement, cGMPs, Applicable Laws and the instructions of Omthera. When required ONC will develop QTA’s with the other contract manufacturers to define the Quality, Technical and cGMP responsibilities. Omthera will have the right to approve these QTAs, acting reasonably. The Parties shall enter into the “Quality Technical Agreement” […***…]. ONC will take such steps as are reasonably required to become a qualified supplier of each of the Licensees.

(5) Site Approvals

ONC acknowledges that any site used in the manufacture of Feedstock shall be subject to verification that such site complies with the Production Standards. ONC shall not utilize alternative sites for production and supply of Feedstock for Omthera unless such sites have been verified with respect to Production Standards compliance. Any site approval under this Section shall not relieve ONC of its ongoing obligation to comply with Production Standards at such site for the production and supply of Feedstock under this Agreement. Before seeking to qualify any other sites, ONC will first seek Omthera’s prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, and in qualifying any such other site, the Parties will discuss any Supply Price improvements that may be shared between the Parties based on the involvement of the new site in supplying Feedstock.

(6) Notice of Non-Conformity

ONC shall immediately notify Omthera in writing if ONC becomes aware that any Feedstock or Incoming Fish Oil used in the production of such Feedstock delivered or to be delivered does not, or likely does not, conform to the requirements of the Relevant Regulatory Authorities, the Specifications, Incoming Fish Oil Specifications, Production Standards and other quality and technical standards as agreed by the Parties under this Agreement.

2.03 Incentive Payment:

Omthera will forthwith pay ONC receiving an action letter from the FDA on the NDA for Epanova that grants site approval for ONC’s manufacturing facility located in Mulgrave, Nova Scotia.

Omthera will forthwith pay ONC the first shipment into commerce by Omthera or any of its Licensees of any Finished Product containing Feedstock manufactured by ONC after Marketing Authorisation therefor.

2.04 Forecasting:

(1) Preliminary forecast:

Within […***…] months, Omthera shall provide ONC with a non-binding, good faith estimate of its estimated requirements of Feedstock for […***…] years. Omthera shall keep ONC reasonably apprised of any significant developments or milestones that would have any effect on the timing of demand, such as any applications made to relevant regulatory authorities for

Marketing Authorisation for any Finished Product, approvals of such applications, marketing plans and similar information.

(2) Monthly updated forecasts:

Each month Omthera shall provide ONC with a schedule of clearly defined manufacturing orders, including, but not limited to, delivery dates, delivery destinations, shipping instructions and any special handling requests. This schedule will also identify the following:

(a) “FX Orders”: Fixed Manufacturing orders required for delivery in the following […***…] months. These orders are firm.

(b) “PL Orders”: Planned Manufacturing orders scheduled for delivery in months […***…], to follow. These are orders which have high probability of remaining firm at subsequent updates, eventually becoming FX Orders.

(c) “FO Orders”: Forecasted Manufacturing orders scheduled for delivery in months […***…]. These are provisional orders which are likely to materialize as PL Orders but the quantity and timing may be different at each scheduled update.

Omthera shall be obligated to purchase at least […***…] of its FX Orders, at least […***…] of its forecast PL Orders, and at least […***…] of the FO Orders, unless there is a Supply Problem as described below in Section 2.09(3). ONC shall be capable of supplying up to […***…] of such PL Orders, unless otherwise mutually agreed. ONC shall use commercially reasonable effort to supply the surplus quantities ordered. […***…], the Parties will discuss in good faith the possibility of ONC fulfilling orders exceeding the […***…] of such PL Orders in case the demand for Finished Product exceeds initial expectations.

(3) Planning and capacity forecasts:

In addition to the […***…] month rolling forecasts referred to in Section 2.04(2), Omthera shall submit to ONC a […***…] year indicative and non-binding forecast (the “Capacity Forecast”) on […***…] during the Term, whereby the […***…] will represent the FX Order, PL Order and FO Order, and […***…] will represent a yearly demand estimate. ONC shall within ninety (90) days of submission thereof, comment in writing on its capacity and capability to meet the Capacity Forecast. At any Party’s request, the Parties shall also meet in person quarterly to discuss relevant issues related to this Agreement, in particular for the year following such meeting, including in respect of Capacity Forecast and market conditions for the Finished Products.

2.05 Orders:

All orders for Feedstock shall be in writing and submitted either by fax or electronic mail to an address designated for such by ONC from time to time.

2.06 Shipment:

Each lot of Feedstock shall be shipped in the type of packaging or containers specified in the Specifications, and each container will be clearly labelled with the weight, name, lot number, and expiration date.

At Omthera’s request, ONC shall provide Omthera with reasonable access to and copies of any applicable supporting data (such as batch records, internal and external lab results and the like) in ONC’s possession, available to ONC or that ONC is able to obtain using commercially reasonable efforts.

2.07 Delivery:

Delivery shall take place within the period from […***…] the delivery date contained in the FX Order and agreed-to by ONC. If Feedstock is incorrectly delivered according to the Firm Order, ONC shall be liable for reasonable and documented additional expense incurred in delivering it to the correct point specified in the Firm Order.

2.08 Shelf Life:

At the time of delivery of Feedstock by ONC, the remaining Shelf Life of such Feedstock shall be not less than […***…] of the Shelf Life period if […***…] and […***…]of the Shelf Life period […***…].

alleged deficiencies related to the warranties provided hereunder or failure to meet the Specifications. Omthera will have the Notice Period (defined below) to address any alleged deficiencies, and during the Notice Period, Omthera shall consult with ONC on testing and results. If Omthera notifies ONC in writing before the end of the Notice Period that Omthera believes any of the Feedstock did not conform to the Specifications or warranties at the time of delivery to Omthera, Omthera will contact ONC and attempt to resolve the matter and if after a period of thirty (30) days Omthera is not satisfied and has obtained independent verification by an independent testing laboratory, such laboratory approved by both Parties, that the Feedstock did not conform to the Specification at the time of delivery to Omthera:

(a) ONC will, at its expense, replace any such defective Feedstock within […***…] Business Days like an FX Order hereunder; and

(b) all quantities of defective Feedstock will, at ONC’s election and expense be either (i) returned to ONC at ONC’s expense; or (ii) destroyed by Omthera under ONC’s direction at ONC’s cost.

“Notice Period” means (i) […***…] days for […***…] month period beginning with […***…], and (ii) […***…] days thereafter.

Upon detection of a Latent Defect by Omthera or ONC the other Party will be notified in writing within […***…] Business Days and if the Latent Defect is attributable to ONC as described below, Sections 2.09(2)(a) and 2.09(2)(b) will be applicable. Upon any such notification, the Parties will meet and discuss, and a plan to test for and determine whether the Latent Defect is attributable to ONC will be put into action, with a goal of making that determination promptly and in any event with […***…] days. If Omthera and ONC are unable to agree on such plan or disagree on such determination, then Omthera and ONC shall mutually agree upon an independent third party to address the situation and render a determination, which determination shall be final and binding. The cost of the independent third party shall be borne by […***…].

(3) Supply Problem:

A “Supply Problem” means that for […***…], or for […***…], Sections 2.09(2)(a) and 2.09(2)(b) are applied to those shipments. In such event, then without limiting any other remedies of Omthera, Omthera shall not be required to make any further Feedstock Purchases, until the Parties resolve the source(s) of the Supply Problem. If ultimately it is determined that any such sources are not ONC’s responsibility, then the Parties shall agree on appropriate compensation for Omthera to pay ONC for any orders that were not placed as required by Section 2.04(2).

In the case of clause (2)(ii) above, if ONC obtains written binding assurances from such person or entity that […***…], then ONC may supply. ONC shall inform Omthera […***…]. If any person or entity violates the foregoing, then without limiting any other remedies of Omthera, (i) ONC shall […***…], (ii) at Omthera’s request, ONC shall […***…], (iii) to the extent allowed by the applicable agreement […***…], upon Omthera’s written request ONC shall […***…]), and (iv) if […***…] is not possible, Omthera and ONC shall cooperate to […***…].

2.15 Regulatory compliance:

(1) ONC acknowledges and agrees that the Feedstock is intended to be used as a feedstock for an active pharmaceutical ingredient and is required to be manufactured, processed and handled in accordance with the measures required by the

(2) Relevant Regulatory Authorities (including all cGMP requirements outlined in the CofR, MHRA and ICHQ7A guidelines), provided such measures to the

and 230.406

extent not in cGMP are communicated to ONC. All Feedstock manufactured by ONC and supplied to Omthera shall be manufactured, processed and handled in accordance with such guidelines. In addition to such obligations, ONC will:

(a) fully and promptly disclose to Omthera relevant matters pertaining to the Feedstock and any supporting documentation for the purposes of Omthera or its Licensees obtaining Marketing Authorisation in respect of any Finished Product;

(b) at Omthera’s cost, promptly provide to Omthera a sufficient quantity of the Feedstock and all assistance and other documents reasonably necessary for Omthera to prepare any application, and the grant, maintenance, variation or renewal of any Marketing Authorisation in respect of any Finished Product;

(c) use its best endeavours to assist Omthera in meeting the demands of any Relevant Regulatory Authority relating Omthera’s or its Licensee’s application and any grant, maintenance, variation or renewal of each Marketing Authorisation in respect of any Finished Product; and

(d) ONC will share any observation(s) (such as Form 483 observations) made by Regulatory Agencies during their inspections with Omthera.

(3) ONC shall not reprocess or rework any material used in manufacturing Feedstock, or the Feedstock itself, without prior written authorization by Omthera, unless such reprocess or rework is permitted under the applicable Marketing Authorisation.

(4) At Omthera’s request, with advance notice of not less than thirty (30) days, Omthera shall have right to have up to […***…] observe the manufacture of Feedstock at ONC’s site(s), provided that absent ONC’s consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, this right may be exercised by […***…], and then […***…], in which event […***…] Omthera may exercise this observation right up to […***…]. ONC will cooperate in any such observation by Omthera, and Omthera will cooperate to ensure that ONC is able to protect the confidential information of its other customers.

(5) ONC shall notify Omthera in writing if ONC desires to make any changes to the manufacturing and quality control processes, equipment, ingredients, sources of supply, location or other aspects for manufacturing Feedstock (other than Incoming Fish Oil, provided the Incoming Fish Oil Specifications are satisfied), from those included in the filing for Marketing Authorisation with the FDA for Epanova.

(a) If Omthera concludes that such change will not require any filing with the FDA other than as part of the annual required

(b) Alternatively, if the proposed change requires any other regulatory filing, or in Omthera’s reasonable view could pose such a Material Regulatory Risk, then ONC will not make such change without Omthera’s prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, provided that Omthera may withhold its consent or may require ONC to delay such change if in Omthera’s reasonable judgment making such change presents any Material Regulatory Risk.

(c) In any event, no such changes shall be made after filing for the first Marketing Authorisation for Epanova until Marketing Authorisation is obtained unless required to meet regulatory requirements and then only with Omthera’s prior written consent.

Omthera will be responsible for obtaining approval of ONC suggested changes (subject to the foregoing) to ensure ONC operations will not be adversely affected. ONC recognizes that there are no guarantees that Relevant Regulatory Authorities will approve the requested changes and Omthera commits to process changes in good faith. Omthera shall reply with its approval or objection to any ONC proposal for any change described in this Section within ten (10) Business Days after receiving a complete description of such change and any other information regarding such change as Omthera may reasonably request.

(6) Audit:

ONC shall permit Omthera, its Licensees and regulatory consultants retained by either of them, or any Relevant Regulatory Authority to carry out periodic audits (as needed during the licensing process and once a year thereafter) of ONC’s records and facilities for the sole purpose of verifying compliance with ONC’s obligations under Section 2.15. As a condition of access to ONC’s premises, ONC may require that any individual acting on behalf of Omthera, its Licensees or consultants enter into a confidentiality agreement to protect the confidentiality of ONC’s confidential information and trade secrets. All such audits shall be at the expense of the Party carrying out the audit or inspection, except that neither Omthera nor its Licensees shall pay for audits and inspections carried out by or on behalf of Relevant Regulatory Authorities, and Omthera shall not be responsible for ONC’s costs arising from assistance and compliance with an audit or inspection.

Omthera may, at its option, require that ONC continue to supply Feedstock if Omthera agrees that it will fully indemnify ONC for any damages or losses that it may suffer due to alleged infringement.

2.18 Recalls and traceability:

(1) General:

If Omthera determines that the Feedstock or any Finished Product must be subject to a field correction, withdrawn or recalled from the market (collectively, a “Regulatory Recall”), Omthera shall notify all regulatory authorities of any such Regulatory Recall, and shall take all steps necessary to effectuate such Regulatory Recall. ONC shall assist Omthera in carrying out any Regulatory Recall by supplying Omthera with relevant manufacturing records including process records, inspection records, material traceability records, and records of Feedstock shipment. ONC shall reimburse Omthera for the costs of such Regulatory Recalls to the extent such Regulatory Recalls were made necessary because of a failure of the Feedstock to meet the Specifications or the requirements of this Agreement at the time that such Feedstock is delivered to Omthera, but ONC shall incur no liability hereunder if ONC’s Feedstock conformed to this Agreement and to the Specifications. If Omthera and ONC are unable to agree on the extent that such Regulatory Recalls were made necessary because of the quality or condition of the Feedstock at the time that such Feedstock was delivered to Omthera, then Omthera and ONC shall mutually agree upon an independent third party to inspect the subject Feedstock and render a determination, which determination shall be final and binding. The cost of the independent third party shall be borne by the Party found by such independent third party to be at fault.

(2) Obligation to notify:

ONC shall promptly and without delay notify Omthera in writing of any information or circumstances that come to its attention related to any Feedstock that has been sold to Omthera or its Licensees that suggest that any such Feedstock deviates from the Specifications such that its use in a Finished Product may be hazardous or may subject the Finished Product to a Regulatory Recall. If ONC recommends to Omthera, in writing, that any Finished Product containing any such Feedstock be recalled and Omthera makes such recall, then Section 2.18(1) shall apply, and if Omthera fails to recall such Finished Product, ONC shall have no liability for such Feedstock.

(2) Termination by Omthera due to market conditions:

If Omthera determines in good faith and with reasonable evidence thereof that (i) the Supply Price or an increase in the Supply Price for the Feedstock means that the Finished Product can no longer be marketed at a competitive price, (ii) price reductions for the Finished Product are necessary, and (iii) such price reductions would result in financial hardships to Omthera or its Licensees, then ONC and Omthera shall attempt to negotiate a change in the Supply Price so that the effects of such competitive pressures are shared among ONC and Omthera. In the event that no agreement is reached between ONC and Omthera within […***…] months of the commencement of negotiations, then either Party may terminate this Agreement upon […***…] month’s notice. ONC may request that Omthera provide third party expert advice regarding clause (i) above.

3.03 Effect of termination or expiration:

(a) In the event of any termination under this Article Three, the day that is the effective date of termination shall be the last day of the Term.

(b) Regardless of the reason for such termination, ONC may require, in its sole and absolute discretion, that Omthera shall purchase any and all inventory of Feedstock held by ONC at the time of any termination, subject to the Agreement requirements regarding Feedstock.

(c) If this Agreement is terminated by Omthera under Sections 2.17(d), 3.02(1), 3.02(3)(a) or 3.02(3)(d), or if this Agreement expires on the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date because the Term is not extended by ONC as provided in Section 3.01, then Section 2.14 shall survive for […***…] years after the end of the Term (without reference to the three criteria (a) through (c) therein).

Article Four. Confidentiality; Licensees; Intellectual Property

4.01 Disclosure: Standard of Care:

The Parties acknowledge that, in the course of performance of their obligations under this Agreement, each Party (a “Disclosing Party”) may disclose Confidential Information to the other (a “Receiving Party”). Each Receiving Party shall protect the other Party’s Confidential Information from unauthorized dissemination, disclosure and use with the same degree of care that each such Party uses to protect and safeguard its own like information, but not less than the degree of care that would be exercised by a prudent person given the sensitivity and strategic value of such Confidential Information. Confidential Information shall be disclosed only to the employees and consultants of the Receiving Party and its Affiliates who have a “need to know” and who have executed an internal nondisclosure agreement at least as restrictive as the terms of this Agreement. A Receiving Party shall not disclose any Confidential Information to any third party without first obtaining the Disclosing Party’s written consent to such disclosure, save that Omthera may disclose Confidential Information (i) to its Licensees, (ii) to prospective and actual collaborators, investors, lenders, acquirers, subcontractors and (sub)licensees, and (iii) to the licensor of Epanova to Omthera. A Receiving Party may further disclose Confidential Information to such Party’s professional advisors in connection with the negotiation and performance of this Agreement. In any case where a Receiving Party discloses a Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information to a third party as permitted under this Agreement, the Receiving Party shall ensure that the third party is subject to confidentiality obligations with the Receiving Party and the Receiving Party agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce such provisions to protect the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information.

Re: Intermediate Feedstock Supply Agreement

Reference is made to that certain Intermediate Feedstock Supply Agreement (the “Agreement”), dated as of the date hereof, by and between Omthera Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Omthera”) and Ocean Nutrition Canada Limited (“ONC”), which governs the manufacture and supply of Feedstock by ONC to Omthera. Any capitalized terms that are not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Agreement.

Omthera and ONC hereby agree to the following modifications to the Agreement:

1. Until the third anniversary of the date that Omthera places an FX Order for Feedstock that will be used to manufacture commercial supply of Omefas (the “First Commercial Order”), Section 2.14(a) will be replaced with the following: “Omthera will purchase from ONC (i) all of its requirements for Feedstock (or any other fish-oil intermediates) required to manufacture Omefas at BioVectra Inc. and (ii) […***…] of its requirements for Feedstock (or any other fish-oil intermediates) required to manufacture Omefas at Croda International plc and any other Licensee(s).”. After such third anniversary, Section 2.14(a) will return to the provision in the Agreement.

2. Sections 2.14(b) and (c) (from “Omthera” in clause (b) through “shortfall” in clause (c)) and Exhibit C are hereby deleted and are of no further force or effect. Accordingly, two conforming changes are hereby made: (i) in Section 2.14, the opening clause “Provided the following criteria under clauses (a), (b) and (c) are” is hereby replaced with “Provided the following criteria under clause (a) is”, and (ii) in Section 3.03, the last parenthetical “(without reference to the three criteria (a) through (c) therein)” is hereby replaced with “(without reference to the criteria (a) therein)”.

3. After each of the first ten (10) years from the First Commercial Order, Omthera will provide ONC with a signed letter from its CFO (or equivalent) to reconcile Omthera’s

4. In Section 2.03, (i) in the first paragraph (referring to site approval for ONC’s manufacturing facility), “five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000)” is hereby replaced with “one million dollars ($1,000,000)”, and (ii) in the second paragraph (referring to the first shipment into commerce), “one million dollars ($1,000,000)” is hereby replaced with “five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000)”.
