CLINICAL TRIAL SERVICES AGREEMENT AMENDMENT NO. 6 TO WORK STATEMENT NB-1

 

RADIUS HEALTH, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Radius”) and NORDIC BIOSCIENCE CLINICAL DEVELOPMENT VII A/S, a Danish corporation (“NB”) that is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nordic Bioscience Clinical Development A/S entered into the certain Clinical Trial Services Agreement (“Agreement”) and that certain Work Statement NB-1 under the Agreement as of March 29, 2011 (“Effective Date”), and entered into an Amendment No. 1, Amendment No. 2, Amendment No. 3, Amendment No. 4 and Amendment No. 5 to Work Statement NB-1 as of December 9, 2011, June 18, 2012, November 6, 2013, March 28, 2014 and May 19, 2014 respectively, (as amended, “Work Statement NB-1”).

 

Pursuant to Section 2.3, 2.11 and 11.7 of the Agreement, the parties wish to enter into this Amendment No. 6 to Work Statement NB-1 (“Amendment No. 6”) effective as of July 22, 2014 (“Amendment Date”). Capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 6 and not defined herein are used with the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement and Work Statement NB-1.

 

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises contained in this Amendment No. 6, the parties agree as follows:

 

1. Reconciliation of costs related to clinical sites, renal CT and QCT scans and Adjustment to Payment Schedule

 

(a) At Radius’ request, NB has previously initiated 4 additional non-CCBR sites in Brazil (2), United States (1) and Hong Kong (1) and discontinued 3 non-CCBR sites in Argentina (1), Brazil (1) and the US (1) in the clinical study that is the subject of Work Statement NB-1. In addition, Radius has previously requested NB to increase the number of renal CT scans to be obtained and analyzed and to obtain new QCT scans (collectively, “A6 Services”). Radius wishes to now provide for a reconciliation of payments to NB for these A6 Services under Work Statement NB-1.

 

(b)  The NB representations and warranties set forth in Sections 8.2, 8.3, 8.5 and 8.6(ii) of the Agreement shall apply to the personnel, including the Clinical Investigators, who perform the clinical study under the A6 Services. NB shall be responsible for securing the applicable representations and warranties from these clinical study sites and personnel, including Clinical Investigators.

 

(c)  The Study Assumptions table on the first page of Attachment A to Work Statement NB-1 (Attachment 2 to the Agreement) is amended to reduce the total Number of Sites from 42 to 28 reflecting this Amendment No. 6 as well as the final number of sites, including deletion of sites in India that were not initiated by Radius. As amended, the Study Assumptions table will read as follows:

(d) The paragraph at the bottom Attachment B to Work Statement NB-1 (Budgets, Fees, Pass-through Costs, and Payment Schedule*) is hereby amended to read in full as follows:

 

“The pricing specified in this Budget is calculated based upon 2,040 subjects randomized and completed at sites managed by NB, excluding sites in India and the United State of America, and is not subject to any adjustment for the number of patients to be Pre-screened/Advertisement, the screen failure rate after the Patient Informed Consent has been signed, or the drop-out rate. However, this Budget as well as the Bonus Equity Payment Amount under the Amended and Restated Stock Issuance Agreement dated May 16, 2011 shall each be reduced by an amount of €11,941 per subject for any subjects enrolled in India or the United States. Such reduction to be applied in pro rata installments at the time of payment of the Second Monthly Amount and the Third Monthly Amount. Otherwise, all pricing will be adjusted on a pro rata fashion to reflect the actual study activities completed by the study subjects.

 

For bone biopsies, this pro rata adjustment for biopsies less than or greater than 200 shall be €4,153 for each bone biopsy at sites managed by NB and €2,008 for sites in India and the United State of America.

 

For obtaining of CT-scans, this pro rata adjustment for CT-scans less than or greater than 300 shall be €610 for each CT-scan at sites managed by NB.

 

For CT-scans image analysis, this pro rata adjustment for CT-scans less than or greater than 300 shall be €180 for each CT-scan for all sites. In addition, there will be a charge of €4,134 for the first 100 Data Clarification Forms (DCF) and €41 for each additional DCF greater than 100. In addition, there will be a 10 per cent management charge to NB related to obtaining and the analysis of CT-scans greater than 300.

 

For obtaining QCT-scans, the cost of €176,681 for 534 QCT-scans will be sent as pass-through from Synarc, Inc. through NB and shall be adjusted on a pro-rata basis for less than 534 QCT-scans. A separate amendment agreement will be negotiated for QCT-scan image analysis between Radius and Synarc, Inc. which is not included in the Amendment No. 6.

(a)  €326,456 for the net extra site activities

 

(b) €99,450 for extra lab kits, project management and shipment as a pass through

 

(c) €16,353 for the start-up costs for the additional Hong Kong site.

 

(d) €215,017 for obtaining and analysis of the additional CT scans greater than 300 including the NB management fee.
