Article 2
Amendments to Agreement

2.1Article 6 of the Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following new
Section 6.12:

 

“6.12

Requests by Recro. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement,
including without limitation, Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 6.4, 6.5 and 9.2, where
Recro requests Alkermes to adopt a particular practice or approach, with which
Alkermes reasonably disagrees, (a “Request”), Alkermes shall notify Recro in
writing within [***] Business Days of Alkermes identifying an issue with the
Request that could have a significant impact upon Alkermes’ performance of its
obligations under this Agreement; provided that Alkermes’ disagreement shall not
be considered reasonable where Recro has requested the relevant practice or
approach in a timely manner and there is no commercial or regulatory alternative
to such practice or approach. Such disagreement shall be referred to the Project
Team for resolution pursuant to the dispute resolution procedures of Section
2.1(e).  To the extent unresolved, or if agreed by the Parties, the Parties
shall document such Request, in a Work Plan or other written agreement (a
“Request Agreement”). Notwithstanding another provision in this Agreement, in
circumstances where Alkermes Manufactures BC Parenteral Meloxicam or Finished
Meloxicam in accordance with a Request and/or any Request Agreement and the
Quality Agreement and such BC Parenteral Meloxicam or Finished Meloxicam fails
to meet any applicable Specifications or there is a failure to pass any other
testing or inspection procedures set out in the relevant Request Agreement, the
following provisions shall apply:

 

 

(a)

Alkermes will not bear, and is hereby released from, any responsibility or
liability for any such BC Parenteral Meloxicam or Finished Meloxicam, for such
failures or for the consequences thereof (including without limitation any
obligation to supply replacement BC Parenteral Meloxicam or Finished Meloxicam)
and will be deemed to have made such BC Parenteral Meloxicam or Finished
Meloxicam available to Recro in compliance with the terms of this Agreement,
irrespective of whether such BC Parenteral Meloxicam or Finished Meloxicam was,
in fact, made available to Recro; and

 

 

(b)

Recro will, on demand, indemnify Alkermes against any Liability incurred or
suffered by Alkermes in connection with such BC Parenteral Meloxicam or Finished
Meloxicam, including without limitation any payments due by Recro under this
Agreement for such BC Parenteral Meloxicam or Finished

 

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

 

Meloxicam that, further to Section 6.12(a) above, are deemed to have been made
available to Recro in compliance with this Agreement.

 

Provided that this Section 6.12 shall not relieve Alkermes from liability, or
entitle Alkermes to indemnification, to the extent that any such liability
resulted from the Alkermes actions and/or omissions referenced in Section 11.3
(a) of this Agreement and provided that Alkermes shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to mitigate its Liability, including, when practicable, by
consultation with Recro in order to seek Recro’s assistance in mitigating such
Liability.  Without prejudice to the foregoing, the Parties shall continue to
work together in good faith to identify alternative approaches to those
documented in the relevant Request Agreement and if the Parties agree in writing
(other than electronic communication) upon such approaches they shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to implement such approaches as soon as
commercially practicable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and
such Request Agreement shall, with effect from the date on which such
alternative approaches are fully implemented and fully replace existing
approaches, and without prejudice to any rights or obligations which may have
arisen on or before such date, cease to be a Request Agreement governed by the
terms of this Section 6.12. In the event of (i) any conflict, inconsistency,
ambiguity or uncertainty between any term of a Request Agreement and any term of
this Agreement (including this Section 6.12), the term of the Request Agreement
shall prevail, or (ii) any conflict, inconsistency, ambiguity or uncertainty
between any term of this Section 6.12 and any other term of this Agreement, the
term of this Section 6.12 shall prevail.”

2.2Section 7.1(c) of the Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following
immediately after the first sentence thereof:

“All payments under this Section 7.1(c) are subject to the provisions of Section
7.4.”

2.3Article 7 of the Agreement is hereby amended by the deletion of the current
Section 7.1(f) and its replacement by the following:

“(f)In respect of Services performed with respect to the Requirements, all
invoices under this Agreement shall be issued by Alkermes upon or promptly after
Alkermes’ making available BC Parenteral Meloxicam, Ex Works the Alkermes
Facility.  All other invoices under this Agreement shall be issued by Alkermes
in accordance with the relevant Work Plan.  Subject to Section 7.1(g), Recro
will pay such invoices within [***] days of receipt of the

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

applicable invoice. Invoices shall be emailed to [***]. Invoices shall be
itemized and contain information on units of Fully Burdened Costs, relevant
Third Party expenses to be reimbursed, time dedicated to performing Services
under the Work Plans, time dedicated to performing CMC Development Services,
labeling and packaging components, and batch and lot numbers for BC Parenteral
Meloxicam produced and Finished Meloxicam derived therefrom.”

2.4Article 7 of the Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following new
Section 7.4:

 

“7.4

Procedure for Payments under Section 7.1(c). Further to Section 7.1(c), the
Parties have agreed the following procedure for the calculation and payment of
the amounts payable by Recro to Alkermes for all Services performed with respect
to the Requirements:

 

(a)Prior to the manufacture of Launch Stock in accordance with Section 4.1(b)
and at the beginning of each Calendar Year during the term of the Agreement
subsequent to the Calendar Year in which the Launch Stock is manufactured,
Alkermes shall estimate its Fully Burdened Costs for all Services to be
performed with respect to the Requirements for the forthcoming Calendar Year (or
remainder thereof), using the latest forecasted Requirements received from Recro
in accordance with Section 4.2. Such estimated Fully Burdened Costs, plus [***]
shall constitute the “Estimated Supply Price”. The Estimated Supply Price will
be the initial price charged for shipments during the relevant Calendar Year.

(b)Alkermes shall issue invoices to Recro in accordance with Section 7.1(f) in
respect of the Services performed with respect to the Requirements.

(c)Within [***] business days following the end of every Calendar Quarter,
either Party may request a recalculation of the then applicable Estimated Supply
Price, whenever there is a deviation of more than [***]% of the total number of
Batches forecast to be delivered for the Calendar Year.

(d)Within [***] days of the end of the Calendar Year, Alkermes shall calculate
the actual Fully Burdened Cost for all Services performed with respect to the
Requirements, plus [***] (the “Actual Supply Price”).

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

(e)Alkermes will perform reconciliation for all units shipped during the
previous Calendar Year, comparing the Estimated Supply Price invoiced with the
Actual Supply Price. Alkermes will inform Recro in writing of:

(i)Any amounts (underpayments) owed by Recro in the event that the Actual Supply
Price was higher than the Estimated Supply Price. Such underpayments will be
invoiced by Alkermes and be payable by Recro within [***] days of receipt of
invoice.

(ii)Any credits (overpayments) owed to Recro in the event that the Actual Supply
Price was lower than the Estimated Supply Price. Such overpayments will be
accounted for as a credit to Recro’s account and will be credited against future
Firm POs until fully offset against such Firm POs.”

Article 3

3.1No Other Amendments.  Except as expressly set forth in this Third Amendment,
this Third Amendment shall not, by implication or otherwise, limit, impair,
constitute a waiver of or otherwise affect any rights or remedies of either
Party under the Agreement, or alter, modify, amend or in any way affect any of
the other terms, obligations or covenants contained in the Agreement, all of
which shall continue in full force and effect.
