BATCH ORDERING AND FORECASTING REQUIREMENTS
This Exhibit C establishes the Parties understanding as to the establishment of procedures for the forecasting (and rolling forecasts) of Passage Bio’s ordering of Batches of the Passage Bio Products.
ARTICLE I
SUMMARY
1.1Batch Pricing Based on Manufacturing Configuration. Each Passage Bio Product being Manufactured by Catalent pursuant to this Agreement may have differing Manufacturing Configurations. In addition, such Manufacturing Configurations may change during the Term for the same Passage Bio Product. Accordingly, pricing for clinical supply of Passage Bio Products will vary depending upon the Manufacturing Configuration utilized in the Manufacture of Batches of such products and shall be set forth in each Scope of Work (the “Supply Pricing”). For the purposes of this Agreement, the Supply Pricing for the Term is based upon a Manufacturing Configuration of [*] and is set forth in Schedule 1.1 of this Exhibit C. For all other clinical supply and any new commercial supply Manufacturing, the applicable Supply Pricing for Batches of Bulk Drug Substance and Drug Product of Passage Bio Products will be agreed to by the Parties and provided in each Scope of Work.
1.2No Minimum Annual Requirements. The Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Passage Bio has no minimum annual ordering requirements, minimum annual purchase requirements, or other minimum ordering or purchase obligations under this Agreement (including this Exhibit C).

2.4Purchase Orders; Forecasts; Procedures.
2.4.1Upon receipt of a Purchase Order from Passage Bio pursuant to this Agreement, Catalent shall Manufacture Batches of Bulk Drug Substance and/or Drug Product at the BWI Facility in accordance with the Product Requirements, cGMPs, the then-current Quality Agreement and any Applicable Laws and otherwise in accordance with this Agreement.
2.4.2Purchase Orders shall include orders for Drug Product, however, the Manufacture of Batches of Drug Product shall be performed in accordance [*], which schedule shall generally consist of the Manufacture and Delivery of Batches of Drug Product [*] the Delivery of Batches of Bulk Drug Substance of each Passage Bio Product in a quantity [*] necessary for the Manufacture of one or more Batches of Drug Product.
2.5Rolling Forecasts; Delivery.
2.5.1Passage Bio shall continue to provide to Catalent a rolling forecast of its Batch requirements for the Delivery of Bulk Drug Substance for the following [*] fiscal quarters (each an “FQ” and consecutively commencing on [*] and [*] (the “Rolling Forecast”). The Rolling Forecasts shall provide the number of Batches of Bulk Drug Substance for the Passage Bio Products.
2.5.2Subject to the rights to make adjustments set forth herein, the Rolling Forecast shall be binding as to the [*] FQs (such quarters are each a “Binding Quarter” or “BQ” and the entire period is the “Binding Orders Period”) and non-binding as to the following [*] FQs (such quarters are each a “Non-Binding Quarter” or “NBQ”). Rolling Forecasts shall be provided by Passage Bio to Catalent in a form of notice substantially similar to the example notice provided in this Exhibit as Attachment A.
2.5.3
2.5.4Forecast Modification; Monitoring.
(a)Passage Bio will be afforded the flexibility to make modification requests to the Rolling Forecasts, as set forth below (each a “Forecast Modification”). Following the delivery of Rolling Forecasts, if a Forecast Modification is made for [*] that requests the Manufacture of one or more Batch( es) of Passage Bio Product( s) other than that which was originally forecasted, Catalent shall use commercially reasonable efforts, but shall not be obligated, to Manufacture the Batch(es) of different Passage Bio Product(s). If a Forecast Modification is made for [*] that requests additional Batches over what was originally forecast (the “Additional Batches”), Catalent shall use commercially reasonable efforts, but shall not be obligated, to Manufacture the Additional Batches.
(b)[Reserved]
(c)If the Forecast Modification reduces the number of Batches of Bulk Drug Substance of a Passage Bio Product that were to be Delivered by Catalent during the Binding Orders Period under Section 2.5.2 of this Exhibit C and Passage Bio is unable to substitute one or more Batches as provided for in subsection (a) above, Passage Bio shall be obligated to pay Catalent according to the table below for all such Batches ordered in that Binding Orders Period that were cancelled. Cancellation of any orders of Drug Product of a Passage Bio Product shall be subject to the same cancellation fees below; provided that no such cancellation fees shall apply for any such orders of Drug Product cancelled prior to the date that is [*] days prior to the Manufacturing Start Date for the cancelled Batch of Drug Product.
[*]
During the period in which Catalent is Manufacturing Bulk Drug Substance and/or Drug Product, the JSC will have periodic teleconferences or meetings to monitor and review the status of Manufacturing operations and to address any issues that may arise.
2.5.5Delivery Dates. Within [*] days following Catalent’s receipt of each Rolling Forecast, Catalent shall prepare, with input from Passage Bio, and submit to the JSC a Batch production schedule for the next Binding Orders Period which includes the order of production of each Batch of Passage Bio Product forecasted and the anticipated delivery of the Batch Documentation for each such Batch to Passage Bio (the “Proposed Production Schedule”). Within [*] days following receipt of the Proposed Production Schedule from Catalent, [*] (the “Approved Production Schedule”). For each Batch of Passage Bio Product being Manufactured during a Binding Orders Period, the Approved Production Schedule for that Batch shall be based upon [*]. Within [*] days upon [*] approval of the Approved Production Schedule, Passage Bio (and each Passage Bio Affiliate and/or Strategic Partner) shall submit to Catalent Purchase Orders specifying the number of Batches and the anticipated delivery dates ( as specified in the Approved Production Schedule). If for any reason Catalent is unable to Deliver the required Batches of Passage Bio Products specified in a Purchase Order on or before the anticipated Delivery date set forth in the Approved Production Schedule, Catalent shall notify Passage Bio promptly upon discovery of its inability to meet the Approved Production Schedule and, [*]. All Purchase Orders submitted in compliance with this Agreement shall be binding on Catalent. No later than [*] days after Passage Bio’s submission of a Purchase Order, Catalent shall provide Passage Bio with written acknowledgment of receipt of the Purchase Order. Catalent shall timely Manufacture and Deliver the amounts ordered by Passage Bio in accordance with this Section 2.5.5, and Catalent shall use commercially reasonably efforts to Manufacture and Deliver any Additional Batches; it being understood that Catalent’ s failure to supply such Additional Batches shall not constitute a breach under this Agreement.
2.5.6Supply Failure. During each Binding Orders Period, if Catalent fails to supply Batches of any Passage Bio Products that meet the Specifications in such numbers that equate to [*], a “Supply Failure” shall be deemed to have occurred upon receipt of written notice from Passage Bio. In the event Passage Bio, at its discretion, elects to delay the restart of a Failed Batch thereby pushing out the anticipated restart date, the additional time to push out the restart shall not count against [*]. Within [*] days of receipt of written notice from Passage Bio of its determination that a Supply Failure has occurred, Catalent shall complete an investigation and report to the JSC the cause of or reason for the Supply Failure and the appropriate corrective action to prevent such failure from reoccurring. The Parties shall review such plan, and if found reasonably acceptable, approve the plan on a timely basis such that Catalent is able to implement it prior to the next production run. Thereafter, as to the delayed or failed Batches of Passage Bio Product that attributed to the Supply Failure, Catalent shall [*]. If (i) [*], (ii) [*], or (iii) [*] (any of (i) through (iii) being a “Repeat Supply Failure”), Passage Bio shall have the right [*].
