	3.2
	Intellectual Property.


	(a)	Ownership of Intellectual Property. All Abzena Background Technology and all Base Technology shall be owned by Abzena. All Company Technology and all Company Foreground Technology shall be owned by Company. Abzena acknowledges that all original works of authorship which are made by Abzena (solely or jointly with others) within the scope of Abzena’s service to Company and which are protectable by copyright are “works made for hire,” pursuant to United States Copyright Act (17 U.S.C., Section 101). To the extent that any Company Foreground Technology does not constitute “works made for hire” as aforesaid, Abzena hereby assigns to Company all of Abzena’s right, title and interest in and to Company Foreground Technology and all of Abzena’s copyright, trade secret, trademark, patent, and other propriety rights in such Company Foreground Technology.

​




Alternatively, the Company may request that Abzena proceed directly to cGMP Manufacture without first performing a non-cGMP Batch at scale (a “Direct to cGMP Batch”), provided that if such Direct to cGMP Batch fails to meet Specifications and the Company elects for subsequent Manufacture, then the Company shall pay for the cost of any subsequent Manufacture, including raw material and disposable equipment costs, of another cGMP Batch of Bulk Drug Substance. The Parties also acknowledge that any changes to the process and/or the Specifications specified in this Agreement or a Statement of Work that is requested by the Company may impact the cost to Manufacture the Bulk Drug Substance, and, accordingly, the Parties agree to negotiate in good faith changes to the Prices for any Bulk Drug Substance accordingly. Nothing in this Section 3.3 is intended to excuse any Party’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach of this Agreement.
4.DELIVERY
	4.1
	Shipment. All shipments of Deliverables including Bulk Drug Substance, or other Materials from Abzena will be subject to handling fees specified in the Statement of Work, shipped to a destination specified in writing on the Statement of Work or otherwise by Company in accordance with the applicable Statement of Work per the validated shipping method and the shipping and packaging instructions, if any, provided by Company at least twenty (20) days prior to the shipping date if not contained in the Specifications. For Bulk Drug Substance Abzena shall also deliver to Company the Certificate of Analysis, the Certificate of Compliance and such other documentation as is specified in the Quality Agreement or otherwise reasonably required to meet all applicable regulatory requirements (including cGMP) not later than the date of delivery of the Bulk Drug Substance. Delivery by Abzena shall be made Ex Works at the Manufacturing Facility (Incoterms 2010), and clearance for export is the responsibility of Company. The Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to co-operate in accordance with Applicable Laws to minimize where permissible any import duties to be paid on imported Deliverables.


	4.2
	Risk of Loss. Risk of loss or damage to Deliverables to be transferred hereunder shall be borne by Company upon Delivery as specified in Section 4.1.


	4.3
	Release of Deliverables; Acceptance; Rejection; Inspection.


	(a)	Within thirty (30) days of Delivery of any Batch of Deliverables, Company shall inspect such Batch and shall have the right to test such Batch to determine conformance with the Specifications. After thirty (30) days from date of Delivery, all unrejected Batches of Deliverables shall be deemed in conformance with the Specifications as to all nonconformities other than latent nonconformities (latent nonconformities include any nonconformities that are not reasonably detectable by Company through its standard inspection and testing procedures, provided, however, that with respect to any assertion by Company of a latent nonconformity, the Company’s handling and storage of the Deliverables shall not have been the direct cause of any such alleged latent nonconformity). For the avoidance of doubt, any Direct to cGMP Batch Manufactured pursuant to Section 3.3 shall not be subject to this Section 4.3 for a failure to meet Specifications.

	(b)	This Section 4.3(b) applies only in the case of Deliverables that are Bulk Drug Substance. If Company determines that any Deliverables do not conform to the Specifications, Company shall as promptly as reasonably practicable (and in any event within five (5) days after such determination) notify Abzena in writing that it rejects Delivery of the Deliverables for non-conformance. Abzena shall respond to any rejection notice as promptly as reasonably practicable (and in any event within five (5) days of receipt of such notice). In the event that Abzena reasonably believes that Deliverables have been incorrectly rejected by Company, Abzena shall so notify the Company in the response pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence and, if requested by Abzena in such response, Company shall provide it with a reasonable amount


​

​




of samples of the appropriate Deliverables for testing. Abzena may, as promptly as practicable, test samples of such Deliverables. In the event of a discrepancy between Company’s and Abzena’s test results such that Abzena’s test results fall within the relevant Specifications, or there exists a discrepancy between the Parties over the extent of which such failure is attributable to Abzena, the Parties shall as promptly as practicable retain an independent laboratory to promptly review the records, test data and perform comparative tests and/or analyses on samples of the Batch of Deliverables that allegedly fails to conform to the Specifications. Such independent laboratory shall be mutually agreed upon by the Parties, acting reasonably and in good faith. The independent laboratory’s results shall be in writing and shall be final and binding absent manifest error. If the Deliverables are determined to meet such applicable Specifications, then such Deliverables shall be deemed to be accepted under this Agreement with respect to the applicable Specifications, and Company shall bear the cost of such laboratory testing. If the Deliverables are determined not to have met the Specifications, then such Deliverables shall be deemed to be rejected under this Agreement with respect to the applicable Specifications, and Abzena shall bear the cost of such laboratory testing. In the event that it is determined (mutually by the parties or by the independent laboratory) that such failure is primarily due to Abzena’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (which includes equipment failure or other systems or facilities issues within the control of Abzena) then Abzena shall either replace the rejected Deliverables as soon as reasonably practicable at no cost to Company or refund to Company the price paid for such non-conforming Deliverables within ten (10) days of such determination, as selected by the Company. In the event that it is determined (mutually by the parties or by the independent laboratory) that such failure is primarily due to Abzena’s negligence then Abzena shall replace the rejected Deliverables as soon as reasonably practicable; provided, that if the Company wishes for Abzena to do so, all Materials shall be paid for by the Company (but at cost and without markup). If any Deliverables are accepted and become Company Materials which are subsequently used for Manufacture of other Deliverables which are rejected, Company shall bear the cost of replacing such Company Materials and any other Company Materials necessary if Abzena replaces such rejected Deliverables, except in the case of Abzena’s breach, gross negligence or willful misconduct. The remedies set forth in this Section 4.3(b) shall be the sole and exclusive remedies for the failure of the Deliverables to meet the Specifications.
	4.4
	Storage and Failure to Take Delivery. In the event that Deliverables, Materials or other items are shipped to Company or its designee pursuant to the Statement of Work, and if Company refuses to receive such Deliverables, Materials or other items Delivered in accordance with this Agreement, Company shall be billed at that time for all such Deliverables or other items, and on the first day of each month thereafter shall be billed automatically for reasonable administration and storage costs charged to similarly situated customers, if such storage is available. For Deliverables, Materials or other items held by Abzena at the request of Company past their scheduled delivery date under the Statement of Work or refused by Company other than pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.3, Company agrees that: (a) risk of ownership and loss for such Deliverables, Materials or other items has passed to Company; (b) such Deliverables, Materials or other items shall be stored by Abzena on a bill and hold basis for legitimate business purposes only; and


	(c)	Company will be responsible for any decrease in market value or the deterioration of such Deliverables, Materials or other items, except in the case of Abzena’s breach, gross negligence or willful misconduct. If Company does not take Delivery of such Deliverables, Materials and other items within three months of the Delivery Date, Abzena shall have the right but not the obligation to dispose of such Deliverables within ten

	(d)	(10) days of informing Company in writing unless Company, within that ten (10) day period, requests delivery thereof, in which case such Deliverables shall be delivered in accordance with Company’s instructions.
