Attachment A

Purchased Material Quality Terms

Supplier Name: Repligen Corporation

Version No.:

The Parties are committed to quality in the performance of this Agreement. Accordingly, all Products shall conform to the Purchased Material Quality Requirements set forth below.

Applicable To All Suppliers:

Section 1 - Quality Systems: The Supplier shall maintain a documented quality system, and the Supplier shall be in compliance with ISO 9001 or equivalent. Key components of a robust quality system are properly implemented quality procedures for collection and processing defects (parts or services), appropriate statistical techniques to analyze defects and identifying opportunities for corrective and preventive actions, along with evidence of validation that actions are effective in eliminating and preventing further defects. Upon request from GE Healthcare, the Supplier shall provide documented corrective action plans to prevent future deviations from the specification within thirty (30) days from receiving a corrective action request from GE Healthcare.

To ensure products and services provided to GE Healthcare shall meet or exceed GE Healthcare requirements, GE Healthcare may audit the Supplier’s quality system at periodic intervals upon 30 days written advance notification, to inspect and observe the Supplier’s manufacture of Products, to audit the Supplier’s quality control and inspection procedures, and to have access to all data and documentation from such control of the Products and to take samples and make such other investigations as GEHC deems necessary. The Supplier shall reserve the right for GEHC to perform such inspections on the premises of subcontractors engaged by the Supplier, such inspections to be scheduled by the Supplier following reasonable prior notice by GEHC and to be carried out jointly by representatives of both Parties and at the sole expense of GEHC. GEHC’s right of inspection under this head shall not diminish the Supplier’s obligation to deliver Products which comply with the specifications of this Agreement. GE Healthcare may also request periodic, joint quality assurance meetings at the Supplier’s facility to discuss and resolve product quality and reliability issues.

Section 2 - Quality Record Retention: If the Supplier is required to perform acceptance activities per GE Healthcare written agreement or purchase specification, the Supplier shall maintain records of the acceptance activities for the services performed and/or products and services delivered to GE Healthcare. These records may include as appropriate test/inspection criteria, revision level of documents/equipment/software used, operating procedures (planning, routing or traveler sheets), dates of test/inspection, and the results. The records required shall be retained until GE Healthcare notifies the Supplier that the product life has ended or for a minimum of ten (10) years, whichever is longer, unless the required records are submitted to GE Healthcare by written agreement or purchase specification.

Section 3 - Compliance: The Supplier shall comply with the terms of the Purchase Order or purchase agreement with GE Healthcare (“Agreement”). The Supplier shall maintain compliance with any and all laws and government regulations that apply in the manufacturing and delivery of its products or services. Such laws may include, but are not limited to, regulations and directives, labor laws, environmental laws, Custom Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (CTPAT) and product safety laws. The Supplier shall provide GE Healthcare all information requested that is necessary to enable GE Healthcare to comply with the laws and regulations applicable to the GE Healthcare sale and use of GE Healthcare products. As per GE Healthcare purchase specifications or for OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) items, the Supplier shall maintain compliance to industry standards and product listings for all Products delivered to GE Healthcare.

The change must not be implemented without prior written consent from GE Healthcare, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. In addition, GE Healthcare has the right to request samples for evaluation prior to approval by GE Healthcare of such changes.

Section 5 - Specifications: The Supplier is responsible to meet or exceed the part requirements and Specifications as referenced in the Agreement. The Supplier is accountable to ensure that delivered items meet the requirements of the revisions and/or versions specified on the applicable Agreement.

The Supplier shall ensure that GE Healthcare documentation is controlled and distributed with the correct revision level to the appropriate personnel that produce the product for GE Healthcare. The Supplier shall also ensure that all GE Healthcare documentation is treated as proprietary and confidential.

For GE Healthcare designed Products, the Supplier is responsible for ensuring that all applicable GE Healthcare documentation is provided to all of the Supplier’s Sub-Suppliers involved in the supply of product for GE Healthcare. The Supplier shall ensure that both they and their Sub-Suppliers that use GE Healthcare engineering documentation are maintained in compliance with all accepted Engineering Change Requests/Engineering Change Orders issued by GE Healthcare.

Upon request from GE Healthcare, the Supplier shall ensure that part qualification is conducted and documents are submitted as required. The part qualification requirements shall be determined by GE Healthcare and shall consist of at a minimum a part layout plan, capability study, and a process control plan.

Section 6 - Electrostatic Discharge: IF ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) SENSITIVE DEVICES ARE SUPPLIED TO GE HEALTHCARE, THE SUPPLIER MUST HAVE AN ACTIVE ESD PROGRAM AND USE PROPER ESD HANDLING AND PACKAGING PROCEDURES. APPLICABLE COMPONENTS INCLUDE CIRCUIT BOARDS, ELECTRONIC ASSEMBLIES WITH EXPOSED COMPONENTS OR CONNECTORS, SEMI-CONDUCTORS AND ANY OTHER DEVICES THAT MAY REQUIRE ESD PROTECTION. SUPPLIERS MUST MAINTAIN RECORDS OF THE TESTING DONE AND TRAINING PROVIDED.

Section 7 - Packaging and Shipping Methods: The Supplier shall provide packaging and shipping methods to prevent cosmetic, mechanical and electrical damage to the Product. The Supplier shall meet or exceed the detailed specifications of the GE Healthcare packaging requirements found in the Specification

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree to further amend the Supplier Agreement as amended by the Previous Amendments in accordance with terms and conditions of this Fifth Amendment which are as follows:

Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used herein, unless otherwise defined or modified herein, shall have the same meaning as defined in the Supplier Agreement. If not previously defined in the Supplier Agreement or a Previous Amendment, terms that are defined as follows or are capitalized in this Fifth Amendment shall have the meaning defined herein.

a.	“Recombinant Product(s)” shall mean either or both of the Products rPA and Zäta but shall be understood to exclude rPL which, in accordance with Addendum No. 1, is a Product under the Agreement.

Named Parties. All references to Parties in this Amendment may include either or both of Supplier and its wholly owned Affiliate Repligen Sweden AB together with GEHC.

3.	Amendment to the Supplier Agreement.

a.	The second paragraph, titled “Agreement Term” of Section C of the Supplier Agreement, as previously amended by Amendment No. 1, shall be amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“This Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and, subject to the rights of termination in Clause 16 of Attachment E (as amended hereby), shall remain in effect until December 31, 2021 (the “Term”). The Parties shall renegotiate [*****] prior to the expiration of the Term (including any extensions thereof as provided herein) to decide whether to renew this Agreement.”

Attachment C (revision date 22 January, 2010) entitled “Products, Prices, and Specifications; as previously amended by Addendum No. 1,; shall be deleted and replaced in its entirety by Revised Attachment C (revision date January 1, 2016 attached hereto. Attachment C shall be a complete current list of all Products, Prices and Specifications applicable at the time of the signing of this Amendment.

c.	The first sentence of Clause 3(c) of Attachment D, entitled “Payment Terms”, is deleted and replaced with the following sentence:

“GEHC shall settle any undisputed invoices arising under this Agreement [*****] after receiving an invoice prepared in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.”

d.	A new clause 3(g) of Attachment D, entitled “Productivity Improvement and Cost Reductions”, is hereby added for the Recombinant Products as follows

[*****]

e.	The first two sentences of Clause 6(a) of Attachment D, entitled “Forecasting”, are hereby amended as follows (changes underlined):

“Forecasting. [*****]days before the end of each quarter, GEHC shall submit to Repligen in writing a [*****] month rolling quarterly forecast (“Forecast”) for its total estimated needs of the Products during the subsequent [*****] month period from Repligen. Repligen shall use the Forecast as the basis for its production planning and shall replenish the Safety Stock according to the agreed lead-times set forth in the Revised Attachment C, as amended herein. Repligen shall further allocate production between its Sites in accordance with the provisions of Clause 6(d) of Attachment D as amended herein. As a consequence of the Forecast, GEHC will propose and send Repligen a purchase plan, showing the required delivery weeks and specifying the amount to be delivered to GEHC for the first quarter of each said Forecast. If GEHC for any reason don’t send a purchase plan to Repligen, GEHC shall instead issue purchase orders reflecting the amount for the binding quarter according to section 6b in Attachment D in the Supplier Agreement. The purchase plan shall be deemed accepted in the case where the amounts in the purchase plan are within the Safety Stocks reported to GEHC, as per the 4^th sentence of Section 9 of Attachment D, as amended herein. GEHC acknowledges that accepted orders within the Safety Stocks levels may require use of safety stock. In the case the stated amounts in the purchase plan exceed the inventories reported for each Site as per above, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith a new purchase plan and Repligen shall use [*****] to accommodate to such a new purchase plan.”

f.	A new paragraph shall be added to Clause 6(d) of Attachment D, entitled “Purchase Commitment”, according to the following:

“Supply of Product. GEHC acknowledges that, pursuant to this Agreement and section 6D of Attachment D in the Related Agreement : (a) GEHC has an obligation to purchase no less than [*****] of its requirements for each of the two Recombinant Products in the aggregate from both Sites so long as (i) both the Supplier Agreement and the Related Agreement remain in effect or (ii)GEHC has not used its right to reduce its minimum Purchase Commitment for any Products from the Lund Site, according to section 16.1 of Attachment E in the Related Agreement and the purchase orders issued by GEHC for the Recombinant Products, shall be split between the Waltham site and Lund site as follows: [*****] to the Waltham site and [*****] to the Lund site, as close as possible per every [*****] with an allowance to deviate from the above split not more than [*****] per Recombinant Product during any calendar year, measured through the actual invoiced amount in [*****] from the Waltham site and the Lund site. Both Parties shall aim to minimize the above mentioned deviation, through adjustments of the concerned purchase orders and or shipment amounts in the 4^th [*****] of the calendar year. Deviations exceeding [*****] per Recombinant Product shall be balanced in the subsequent calendar year. To the extent GEHC uses its right to reduce its minimum purchase commitments for

any or all Products from the Lund Site [*****] the purchase commitment, as regards the two Recombinant Products shall be reduced accordingly and what is set out in Section 6 d Attachment D of the Supplier Agreement shall apply, meaning that if the purchase commitment from the Lund Site is for example [*****], the purchase commitment from the Waltham Site remain according to what is set out in clause 6d in Attachment D in the Supplier Agreement, that is at least to [*****] of GEHC´s total requirements of Recombinant Products per calendar year. For further clarification, if GEHC reduces its purchase commitment of Recombinant Products to Repligen to between [*****]then all of GEHC orders to Repligen will be delivered as per this section 3f, that is [*****] to Waltham site and [*****] to Lund site for such Recombinant Products not terminated by the Lund site.

Below summarizes the different scenarios of Purchase Commitment and the resulting distribution of Purchase Orders of the Recombinant Products, see also Table 1; Recombinant Products:

Prerequisite scenario 1 is in effect:

•

GEHC has not used it right to reduce the Purchase Commitment to Lund or

•

GEHC has used its right to reduce the Purchase Commitment to Lund to between [*****]

•

GEHC has used its right to reduce the Purchase Commitment to Lund below [*****] however Supplier has not terminated its commitment to supply Products from Lund.

then the purchase orders of Recombinant Products to Repligen shall on a [*****] basis be distributed as follows:

•

[*****] towards the Waltham site

•

[*****] towards the Lund site

Prerequisite scenario 2 is in effect:

•

GEHC has used its right to reduce the Purchase Commitment of Recombinant Products to Lund below [*****] and the Supplier has terminated its commitment to supply Products from Lund Site to GEHC or

•

GEHC has used its right to reduce the Purchase Commitment of Recombinant Products to Lund to [*****]

then at least [*****] of GEHC’s total requirements of Recombinant Products shall be placed as purchase orders to the Waltham site. For avoidance of doubt Supplier’s commitment according to 6c Attachment D remain in force

[*****]

GEHC hereby agrees and affirms that Repligen shall have the right to apportion manufacturing of either or both Recombinant Products between the Sites as it chooses and Repligen may, in its sole discretion, choose so long as:

a)	GEHC’s total requirement of Recombinant Products as specified in the committed Forecast are timely delivered to GEHC in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Supplier Agreement

b)	Repligen manufactures each of the Recombinant Products at each of the Lund Site and the Waltham Site respectively with a minimum of [***] of GEHC’s yearly requirement in [***], at each Site, during each rolling twelve month period, commencing with the Effective Date of the Amendment, and

c)	Repligen maintains its required Safety Stock as set out in Attachment C to this Amendment. Repligen shall apportion and control the Safety Stocks of Products in accordance with the provisions of the Attachment C to this Amendment”

d)	The Parties have agreed that under the Agreement and the Related Agreement, the Supplier may choose to fulfill the purchase orders issued by GEHC as per the following:

(i)	a purchase order placed to the Waltham Site can be delivered from the Lund site and the concerned invoice shall be issued by the Waltham site, and

(ii)	a purchase order placed to the Lund site can be delivered from the Waltham site and the concerned invoice shall be issued by the Lund site,

For clarity,

•

any costs incurred associated with the use of the process set out in (d) (i) and (ii) shall be born solely by the [*****] and

•

first in first out (FIFO) principle shall be applied for the total inventory on both Sites

g.	The 4^th and 5^th sentence of Clause 9 of Attachment D is deleted and replaced with the following sentence:

“The Supplier shall in good faith provide GEHC on a [*****] basis with a report of inventory levels of finished goods of the Products, showing the current inventory levels and the planned levels for the forthcoming [*****], no later than the [*****] in every calendar [*****] with the following details: Forthcoming [*****], inventory levels at the end of the respective [*****]; forthcoming [*****], inventory levels at the end of [*****] respectively.”

h.	The first 2 sentences of Clause 2.1 in Attachment E shall be amended as follows:

“Unless otherwise agreed Products shall be delivered according to the Incoterms 2010 set out in Attachment C and title shall transfer at the same time as the risk transfer in accordance with such Incoterms”

i.	A new clause 6.3 is added to the Attachment E as follows:

[*****]

j.	Clause 16.6 of Attachment E is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows :

“GEHC shall have the right to terminate the Agreement with eighteen (18) months written notice if the Supplier or any of its Affiliates markets or sells any immobilized chromatography products which is functionally substitutable (based on technical performance) with GEHC’s chromatography products containing the Products (as exemplified by MabSelect and MabSelect Sure). For the avoidance of doubt, GEHC is aware that Repligen markets and sells certain immobilization chromatography media products currently known as IPA-300 and CaptivA, which due to their current product specifications and technical performances are not functionally substitutable with MabSelect family products and GEHC acknowledges that marketing and sale of such products is not in violation of this Clause 16.6”

k.	Clause 16.7 of Attachment E, is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“GEHC shall have the right to terminate the Agreement with twelve (12) months written notice if (i) the Supplier’s protein manufacturing operation in the Lund Site is transferred outside of the Repligen group of companies or moved outside of Sweden or the protein manufacturing operation in the Waltham Site is transferred outside of the Repligen group of companies or moved outside of US(ii) if the control of Repligen or the Repligen group of companies is taken over by a direct competitor of GEHC in the field of chromatography media or bioprocess hardware products whereby control shall mean directly or indirectly (i) holding fifty percent (50%) or more of its issued shares, or (ii) of the voting power therein, or (iii) of the interest in the income of such corporation, partnership or other entity, or (iv) having the power to appoint the majority of its directors or (v) otherwise having the power to direct its business activities.

4.	Effect of Amendment. In the event of the expiration or termination for any reason of the Related Agreement, the provisions of this Amendment shall continue to be effective.

Entire Agreement. This Amendment, together with the Supplier Agreement as amended by the Previous Amendments and the Attachments, exhibits, schedules, and other documents referred to therein contain the entire understanding of the Parties with respect to the subject matter contained herein and therein. From and after the effective date of this Amendment, any reference to the Supplier Agreement shall be deemed a reference to the Supplier Agreement and its Previous Amendments as further amended hereby.
