                Purchaser wishes to engage Thermo Fisher directly in relation to the manufacture and supply of API and has requested that GSK agree to terminate each of the Clinical Supply Agreement and the Commercial Supply Agreement insofar as it

                Purchaser has further proposed that, in consideration of GSK agreeing to such partial termination of each of the Clinical Supply Agreement and the Commercial Supply Agreement, it will pay GSK certain supplementary fees.
