Notwithstanding the above, the initial firm Supply Price will be within [***] plus or minus of the estimated supply price per Batch of Product set forth in Appendix A. The initial firm Supply Price for Product shall be effective through the second anniversary of Successful Validation.
4.2.    Annual Pricing Adjustment. On an annual basis after the second anniversary of Successful Validation, either Party may propose, pursuant to Section 4.3, suggested adjustments to the Supply Price for inflation for any increase or decrease in the Canadian

In addition, notwithstanding the above, where BioVectra can document extraordinary increases or decreases of greater than [***], upon provision of documentation evidencing and detailing increases or decreases in costs, BioVectra may propose adjusting the Supply Price to reflect the extraordinary increase or decrease, up to a maximum of [***].
4.3.    Implementation of Supply Price Adjustments. For all price adjustments proposed pursuant to Section 4.2, a Party will deliver to the other Party, on or about September 1 of each calendar year of the Term, such Party’s suggested revisions to the then-current Supply Price based upon this Section 4.3 to be effective for all Batches of Product to be delivered on or after January 1 of the next calendar year. The Parties shall promptly discuss such proposed revisions in good faith and mutually agree upon the Supply Price for the next calendar year, which must be documented in a written amendment to Appendix A executed by both Parties before it becomes binding on either Party.
4.4.    Billing and Payment. As a deposit against Batches to be manufactured under Purchase Orders, PhaseBio agrees to pay BioVectra, [***] prior to the date that the manufacture of the applicable Batches is scheduled to commence (as set forth in BioVectra’s notice of acceptance of the applicable Purchase Order or such other schedule for delivery of the Batches mutually agreed between the Parties), [***] of the total value of the Batches to be manufactured (determined by multiplying the number of Batches by the current applicable Supply Price). BioVectra will invoice PhaseBio for such deposit, with payment due within thirty (30) days from receipt of invoice. In the event that, after issuance of the invoice for such deposit, the Supply Price that would apply to such Batches is adjusted pursuant to Sections 4.2 and 4.3, then (i) if the adjusted Supply Price is higher than the Supply Price on which such total value was originally calculated, PhaseBio shall pay to BioVectra [***] of the difference between the total value of the Batches at the adjusted Supply Price and the total value of the Batches at the unadjusted Supply Price, and (ii) if the adjusted Supply Price is lower than the Supply Price on which such total value was originally calculated, BioVectra shall credit [***] of the difference between the total value of the Batches at the unadjusted Supply Price and the total value of the Batches at the adjusted Supply Price toward the amount invoiced by BioVectra for such Batches upon Release thereof. BioVectra will invoice PhaseBio for the remainder of payment (applying any applicable credit pursuant to clause (ii) of the preceding sentence) on Release of Product, with payment due within thirty (30) days of receipt of invoice. The deposit will be applied pro rata to the Product delivered against the Purchase Order. All amounts payable by PhaseBio to BioVectra will be priced and paid in US Dollars by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account designated by BioVectra. BioVectra will invoice PhaseBio [***] for Pass Through Costs for raw materials and consumables consumed during Manufacturing. PhaseBio will also be responsible for any raw materials and consumables that were purchased for PhaseBio but expired due to changes in schedule requested by PhaseBio.
