 2 








 written approval of any items to be purchased on behalf of Sponsor) be charged to the account of SPONSOR
at their actual cost, as additions to the fees set forth in the Price and Payment Schedule. 
 3.1.2 Unless otherwise specified and provided
by SPONSOR (or obtained at the behest of SPONSOR), MOLECULAR MEDICINE will use the standard Project Materials and Project Equipment that it uses in the ordinary course of its business to perform the Project, provided that such standard materials and
equipment are suitable for furnishing the Product and are in compliance with the Exhibits, Product Specifications, and applicable Laws and requirements. 
 3.1.3 Except as specifically agreed by the parties, or unless prohibited by law or regulation, any remaining supplies of Sponsor Materials or any Sponsor Equipment shall be returned to SPONSOR upon completion of the
Project. Any Sponsor Materials or Sponsor Equipment that is not returned to the SPONSOR shall be held, subject to the Standard Terms and Conditions of Storage, and subject to MOLECULAR MEDICINE’s standard storage fees. 
 3.2 Timetable. 
 3.2.1 Work
Schedule. MOLECULAR MEDICINE will commence the Project Run only upon receipt of a Start Order duly signed by an authorized officer of SPONSOR (which shall be any one of the following: its Vice President Manufacturing and Technical Operations,
its Chief Business Officer and its President). In the case of Molecular Medicine, the authorized officers with respect to the Agreement shall be any one of the following: its Vice President of Operations, Chief Financial Officer and its President.
Once MOLECULAR MEDICINE receives the Start Order, it will apply commercially reasonable best efforts to complete the Project in accordance with the Work Schedule, it being understood that as long as MOLECULAR MEDICINE makes such efforts, MOLECULAR
MEDICINE’s failure to meet the Work Schedule shall not constitute a default by MOLECULAR MEDICINE of its obligations hereunder. MOLECULAR MEDICINE will notify SPONSOR if it determines there are likely to be substantial changes in the proposed
start or completion dates of the Project. 
 3.2.2 Sponsor’s Cancellation or Delay. SPONSOR acknowledges that in order to
undertake the Project, MOLECULAR MEDICINE will reserve for the benefit of SPONSOR certain resources, including Project Materials, Project Equipment, personnel availability, facility capacity and storage space. Accordingly, in the event that SPONSOR
cancels or delays the Project, then as long as MOLECULAR MEDICINE is in compliance with the Work Schedule, SPONSOR will be obligated to pay the applicable cancellation or delay fees set forth in the Price and Payment Schedule. In addition, the
Project will be subject to the termination provisions set forth in Section 23.4. 
 3.2.3 Changes. SPONSOR may request reasonable
changes in the Scope of Work and/or the targeted Technical or Product Specifications prior to Project Completion (as defined in Section 4.1). To be effective, all such proposed changes, including changes in the price and projected completion
date of the Project, shall be described in writing by authorized representatives of both MOLECULAR MEDICINE and SPONSOR and signed by both parties. Unless otherwise agreed to by MOLECULAR MEDICINE and SPONSOR, changes that cause any delay in the
Project will subject SPONSOR to the applicable delay fees set forth in the Price and Payment Schedule. 
 3.3 Regulatory Testing
Requirements. If, during the course of conducting this Project, the regulatory testing requirements covering the Product materially change such that additional expense would be incurred by MOLECULAR MEDICINE to satisfy the terms of this
Agreement, then MOLECULAR MEDICINE will apprise SPONSOR of the additional expenses to be incurred and those expenses will be the responsibility of the SPONSOR. 
 3.4 Facility Visits. MOLECULAR MEDICINE shall permit SPONSOR’S representatives to visit MOLECULAR MEDICINE’s facilities during normal working hours (Monday through Friday 9 am to 5 pm), upon
reasonable notice (no less than three days prior) and with reasonable 
  

 3 








 frequency to observe the Project’s progress, to discuss the Project with individuals performing the
Project and/or appropriate officials of MOLECULAR MEDICINE, and to inspect and/or obtain copies of all records (including without limitation Production Records) relevant to the Project. Facility visits shall also be permitted during the Production
Records retention period described in Section 5.5. 
 3.5 Quality Agreement. During the Project, MOLECULAR MEDICINE and SPONSOR
shall follow the quality control procedures set forth in the Quality Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit E. 
  

	4.	Project Completion. 

 4.1 Notice and

by MOLECULAR MEDICINE and (b) issuance of a Certificate of Compliance or Development Report (confirming among other things that the Product is in compliance with the Product Specifications, and is ready for shipping as directed by Sponsor).
Such notice shall be delivered by overnight courier. Risk of loss for the Product shall be the responsibility of SPONSOR upon release of Product from MOLECULAR MEDICINE’S premises (FOB shipping point) to a shipper selected and approved by
SPONSOR. SPONSOR acknowledges and agrees that it is SPONSOR’s sole responsibility to determine for itself that such shipper is commercially reliable and that it carries insurance in accordance with standards that are acceptable to SPONSOR.
SPONSOR must acknowledge receipt of notice of Project Completion to an authorized representative of MOLECULAR MEDICINE within ten (10) business days of formal notification by MOLECULAR MEDICINE. If MOLECULAR MEDICINE does not receive an
acknowledgement of notice of Project Completion with such period, then Product will be subject to MOLECULAR MEDICINE’s then current Standard Terms and Conditions Of Storage and its standard group storage fees. 
 4.2 Product Storage. MOLECULAR MEDICINE agrees to hold SPONSOR’s Product for up to 30 days after SPONSOR’s acknowledgement of Project
Completion or 45 days after MOLECULAR MEDICINE’s notice to SPONSOR of Project Completion, whichever is shorter. Product held at MOLECULAR MEDICINE beyond the foregoing Product storage intervals shall be subject to MOLECULAR MEDICINE’s then
current Standard Terms and Conditions of Storage and its standard group storage fees. 
  

	5.	Technology Transfer; Inventions; Ownership of Production Records. 

 5.1 Technology Transfer by Sponsor and Limited License. In order to enable MOLECULAR MEDICINE to perform the Project, SPONSOR will disclose to MOLECULAR MEDICINE the Sponsor Technology and hereby grants to
MOLECULAR MEDICINE a limited, non-exclusive license in and to Sponsor Technology that is disclosed to MOLECULAR MEDICINE, for the sole purpose of performing the Project. Except to the extent set forth in the foregoing, this Agreement confers no
license or intellectual property rights to MOLECULAR MEDICINE by SPONSOR for any SPONSOR-related intellectual property existing prior to undertaking the Project. 
 5.2 Inventions. 
 5.2.1 Product Inventions from Sponsor’s Technology. In performing the
Project and in applying Sponsor’s Technology to the development and manufacture of the Product, MOLECULAR MEDICINE may develop ideas, know-how, inventions, techniques, improvements and other technology, whether or not patentable or
copyrightable, and associated intellectual property (collectively “Inventions”) relating to the Product and its manufacture. All such Inventions that arise solely or principally from the application of Sponsor’s Technology
(including without limitation the performance of the Project as outlined by SPONSOR and/or its personnel), or that relate exclusively to the Product are referred to as “Product Inventions.” MOLECULAR MEDICINE agrees that all Product
Inventions are the exclusive property of SPONSOR and constitute Proprietary Information of SPONSOR. 
  

 4 








 5.2.2 Process Inventions from MMB Technology. From time to time, with the approval of SPONSOR as
set out in the Scope of Work or as otherwise agreed to during the Project Run, MOLECULAR MEDICINE may apply some of the MMB Technology to the development and manufacture of the Product. In doing so, MOLECULAR MEDICINE may develop Inventions that
relate to the MMB Technology. All such Inventions that arise from the application of the MMB Technology to the manufacture of the Product are referred to as “Process Inventions.” SPONSOR agrees that all Process Inventions that are
invented solely or principally by MOLECULAR MEDICINE and that do not arise from or comprise SPONSOR’s Technology or information or ideas provided by SPONSOR’s personnel, are the exclusive property of MOLECULAR MEDICINE and constitute
Propriety Information of MOLECULAR MEDICINE. 
 5.3 Grant Backs by MOLECULAR MEDICINE. In order to enable SPONSOR to utilize both
Product Inventions and Process Inventions resulting from MOLECULAR MEDICINE’s performance of the Project: 
 5.3.1.1 MOLECULAR MEDICINE
hereby assigns to SPONSOR all right, title and interest in and to any and all Product Inventions. 
 5.3.1.2 MOLECULAR MEDICINE hereby agrees
to grant to SPONSOR a non-exclusive license, with the limited right to sub-license as described below, to any and all Process Inventions made, conceived and/or reduced to practice by MOLECULAR MEDICINE during the course of, and/or resulting from,
the performance of the Project, provided that SPONSOR’s use of such Process Inventions relates directly and exclusively to the manufacture of the Product. SPONSOR’s license right under this clause shall not extend to inventions, processes
or technology that are developed by MOLECULAR MEDICINE prior to its undertaking the Project or that is not related directly and exclusively to the manufacture of the Product. Upon providing MOLECULAR MEDICINE with prior written notice of the name
and address of the sublicensee and subject to such sublicensee’s written agreement to be bound by the confidentiality provisions of Section 6 below, SPONSOR may sublicense its rights under this clause only to such identified
sublicensee(s). 
 5.4 Other Applicable Law. Except as expressly set forth herein to the contrary, with respect to any Inventions
arising from the Project, US patent laws will be followed (including without limitation such laws as may be applicable to joint inventorship and ownership). 
 5.5 Production Records. All Production Records generated by MOLECULAR MEDICINE in the course of the Project shall be the property of MOLECULAR MEDICINE and constitute Proprietary Information of MOLECULAR
MEDICINE. All Production Records shall be maintained by MOLECULAR MEDICINE for the benefit of SPONSOR during the term of this Agreement. SPONSOR shall have access to (and be provided with a copy of upon request) Production Records produced in
connection with the Project in order to review the data relating to the production of the Product. Unless otherwise agreed between the parties, upon completion of the Project, MOLECULAR MEDICINE shall store and maintain all Production Records in
accordance with all applicable legal and regulatory requirements for a period of five (5) years (or such shorter period as may be permitted by law). After the expiration of the applicable retention period, SPONSOR will pay MOLECULAR MEDICINE,
in advance, its then-current standard annual storage fee for the retention of such Production Records. If for any reason the fee is not paid (e.g. SPONSOR cannot be located, SPONSOR has not responded, etc.), MOLECULAR MEDICINE may dispose of the
Production Records as it sees fit (after reasonable efforts to apprise Sponsor of any impending disposal). It shall be SPONSOR’s responsibility to ensure that MOLECULAR MEDICINE has a current address for SPONSOR. 
  

	6.	Confidentiality. During the performance of the Project, during the period of any permissible license or sub-license under Section 5 above, and continuing until the later
of (i) the date five (5) years after the termination or expiration of this Agreement and (ii) the date of termination of any 

  

 5 








 such license or sub-license, each party shall treat the trade secrets and other proprietary or
confidential information disclosed to such party (the “Receiving Party”) by the other party (the “Disclosing Party”) under this Agreement and marked by the Disclosing Party as confidential, as the proprietary
and confidential information of the Disclosing Party (“Proprietary Information”), and shall maintain all Proprietary Information in strict trust and confidence and shall not disclose any Proprietary Information to any third party or
use any Proprietary Information except as may otherwise be authorized in this Agreement or by the Disclosing Party’s prior written consent. For purposes of this Agreement (but without limitation) (i) Proprietary Information of the SPONSOR
shall include all Product Inventions described in Section 5, and (ii) Proprietary Information of MOLECULAR MEDICINE shall include all Production Records and all Process Inventions described in Section 5. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Receiving Party shall have no liability or obligation to the Disclosing Party for, nor be in
any way restricted in, its disclosure of or use of any information that: 
  

	 	a)	is already known to the Receiving Party at the time of the Disclosing Party’s disclosure; 

  

	 	b)	is or becomes publicly known by any means other than through a wrongful act or omission of the Receiving Party, its employees or agents; 

  

	 	c)	is received from a third party entitled to make such a transfer without violating an obligation of confidentiality; 

  

	 	d)	is independently developed by or for the Receiving Party; 

  

	 	e)	is disclosed in response to an order of a court or other governmental body or regulatory authority with competent jurisdiction over the Receiving Party; or is otherwise required to
be disclosed by law or governmental regulation. 

  

	7.	Use of Names. Neither party shall use the name of the other party or its employees in any advertising or sales promotion materials or in any publication without such other
party’s prior written consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, SPONSOR may identify MOLECULAR MEDICINE as the source of Product to be produced under the Agreement, and each party may identify the other party with regards to the Product in any
regulatory submission associated with the Project without prior written consent. 

  

	8.	Regulatory Issues: SPONSOR acknowledges that MOLECULAR MEDICINE’s manufacturing technology, as well as any technology licensed to MOLECULAR MEDICINE from third parties,
and any information related respectively thereto that is filed with the FDA or other health regulatory authorities in countries other than the United States, is of crucial importance to MOLECULAR MEDICINE and to such licensing parties, as well as to
all other sponsors benefiting from MOLECULAR MEDICINE’s technology. Such information includes all process related Biologic (Type II) Master Files and Facility (Type V) Drug Master Files. To assist in preserving the integrity and value of such
technology, SPONSOR agrees that it will not unreasonably, on its own initiative, analyze or engage in any research of such technology that may be reasonably expected to raise safety concerns with the FDA regarding the use of such technology in the
Project. If SPONSOR reasonably believes that such a study is necessary, SPONSOR shall also apprise and consult with MOLECULAR MEDICINE before engaging in such a study. SPONSOR further agrees to promptly notify MOLECULAR MEDICINE of any and all
communications and/or concerns expressed by the FDA or any other health regulatory authority relating to the manufacture of the Product including MOLECULAR MEDICINE’s manufacturing technology, and agrees to consult with MOLECULAR MEDICINE to
resolve any such concerns with the FDA or such other authority. MOLECULAR MEDICINE agrees to provide SPONSOR with letters of cross-reference to all Master Files as appropriate to facilitate SPONSOR’s use of Product and/or to address any related
concerns of FDA or such other authority. Non-compliance with the obligation to consult with MOLECULAR MEDICINE to resolve such concerns with the FDA by SPONSOR shall constitute a material breach of SPONSOR’s obligations under this Agreement,
permitting MOLECULAR MEDICINE at its sole discretion to terminate immediately all or part of this Agreement pursuant to Section 23.3, in addition to such other rights that MOLECULAR MEDICINE may have under law. 

  

 6 









	9.	Limited Warranty. Upon the issuance of a Certificate of Compliance, MOLECULAR MEDICINE shall be deemed to warrant only that: (i) it has performed the Project with due
care in accordance with the Scope of Work, current Good Manufacturing Practices, and all applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations, and (ii) the Product conforms to the Technical Specifications reported in the Certificate of
Compliance. This limited warranty is specific to SPONSOR and does not extend to any licensee or sublicensee under Section 5 above, or to any other party. Any claim by SPONSOR for a breach of such warranty shall be made in writing to MOLECULAR
MEDICINE on or before the first anniversary of the date that SPONSOR is notified that Product is complete. The sole remedy of SPONSOR for breach of this warranty shall be for MOLECULAR MEDICINE to perform the Project again, or (if practicable) to
perform again such portions of the Project as maybe required to correct the deficiency. MOLECULAR MEDICINE SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR GENETIC ALTERATIONS, INCLUDING THE FORMATION OF REPLICATION-COMPETENT VIRUSES (SUCH AS REPLICATION-COMPETENT
ADENOVIRUS OR REPLICATION-COMPETENT RETROVIRUS) THAT OCCUR DURING PRODUCTION OF THE PRODUCT. SUCH GENETIC ALTERATIONS SHALL NOT BE THE BASIS FOR A WARRANTY CLAIM BY SPONSOR. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL MOLECULAR MEDICINE BE LIABLE UNDER THIS
LIMITED WARRANTY TO SPONSOR OR ANY THIRD PARTY CLAIMING BY OR THROUGH SPONSOR FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, OR OTHER DAMAGES, AND THE WARRANTY SET FORTH HEREIN IS IN LIEU OF ANY AND ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPLICIT OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING,
WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. MOLECULAR MEDICINE’S LIABILITY TO SPONSOR FOR DAMAGES OR LOSSES CAUSED TO SPONSOR AS A RESULT OF THE BREACH OF ANY TERMS AND CONDITIONS CONTAINED
HEREIN (INCLUDING ANY EXHIBITS) SHALL IN NO EVENT EXCEED THE FEE PAID BY SPONSOR TO MOLECULAR MEDICINE IN CONNECTION WITH THE PROJECT. 

  

	10.	Indemnification. 

 10.1 Indemnification by
SPONSOR. SPONSOR shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless MOLECULAR MEDICINE, its directors, officers, employees and agents (collectively the “Molecular Medicine Indemnitees”) from and against any and all liability, loss,
expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), or third party claims for injury or damages (collectively, “Liabilities”) arising out of the manufacture, sale or use of the Product, provided that SPONSOR shall have no
obligation to indemnify the Molecular Medicine Indemnitees for any portion of a Liability that arises from the negligence or willful misconduct of the Molecular Medicine Indemnitees or from the failure of the Molecular Medicine Indemnitees to
perform the Project in compliance with applicable Laws. 
 10.2 Indemnification by MOLECULAR MEDICINE. Except as limited by
Section 9 above, MOLECULAR MEDICINE shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless SPONSOR, its officers, directors, employees and agents (collectively the “Sponsor’s Indemnitees”) from and against any and all
Liabilities arising solely out of the negligence or willful misconduct of the MOLECULAR MEDICINE Indemnitees, provided that MOLECULAR MEDICINE shall have no obligation to indemnify the Sponsor’s Indemnitees for any portion of a Liability that
arises from the negligence or willful misconduct of the Sponsor’s Indemnitees. 
 10.3 Notification. The obligation of either
party to indemnify the other pursuant to this Agreement shall be contingent upon timely notification by the indemnitee to the indemnitor of any claims, suit or service of process; control by the indemnitor over the conduct and disposition of any
claim, demand or suit; and cooperation by the indemnitee in the defense of the demand or suit. 
  

 7 









	11.	Payment Terms. SPONSOR agrees to pay promptly all fees and expenses in accordance with the terms set forth in the applicable Price and Payment Schedule. Unless otherwise
agreed to in the Price and Payment Schedule, all payments shall be due within thirty (30) days of the date of invoice. Failure to timely pay any of such amounts for any Project shall constitute a material breach of SPONSOR’s obligations
under this Agreement, permitting MOLECULAR MEDICINE at its sole discretion to terminate (upon ten (10) days prior written notice to SPONSOR) all or part of this Agreement with respect to any or all Projects pursuant to Section 23.3, to
withhold delivery of Product, to suspend any or all Project Runs, and to exercise such other rights that MOLECULAR MEDICINE may have under this Agreement or otherwise under law. 

  

	12.	Compliance with Law. SPONSOR will not use, transport, store, or dispose of the Product in a manner inconsistent with (a) laws, regulations, rules or ordinances
applicable to the Product, including without limitation, all applicable requirements and procedures of the United States Food and Drug Administration, or (b) health and safety standards and procedures generally used in the industry. SPONSOR
shall obtain assurance of compliance with the preceding sentence from any of its affiliates, agents, assignees, or licensees who use, transport, store, or dispose of the Product. 

  

	13.	Excused Performance. Except for payment obligations, neither party shall be responsible for failure or delay in performance of its obligations under or in connection with
this Agreement due to causes beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, governmental actions, fire, smoke, labor difficulty, shortages, war, revolution, civil disturbances, terrorism, sabotage, blockade, embargo,
explosion, transportation problems, interruptions of power or of communication, failure of suppliers or subcontractors, or natural disasters. SPONSOR acknowledges that it is SPONSOR’s responsibility to obtain its own insurance coverage for the
foregoing events. SPONSOR acknowledges that after the occurrence of any of the foregoing events, (i) MOLECULAR MEDICINE may be unable to suspend the Product Run and therefore may be forced to restart the Product Run, and (ii) MOLECULAR
MEDICINE may be unable to limit, suspend, or terminate any outstanding financial commitments for which SPONSOR shall be held responsible. SPONSOR shall reimburse MOLECULAR MEDICINE for all additional costs incurred by MOLECULAR MEDICINE as a result
of its inability to suspend the Product Run or to suspend or cancel outstanding financial obligations, to the extent that such additional costs are not otherwise covered by MOLECULAR MEDICINE’s business interruption insurance, and MOLECULAR
MEDICINE shall apply commercially reasonable best efforts to continue and/or redo affected portions of the Project. 

  

	14.	Assignment. This agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, and their respective successors, assigns, legal representatives and heirs.
Either party may assign or transfer its rights and obligations under this Agreement to a successor to all or substantially all of its assets or business relating to this Agreement, whether by sale, merger, operation of law or otherwise, upon written
notice to the other party; provided, however, that such written notice shall be provided by at least 90 days prior to any proposed transfer by MOLECULAR MEDICINE, and that MOLECULAR MEDICINE shall have no right to assign or otherwise transfer its
obligations hereunder to any proposed successor that is located outside of the United States or that is materially less qualified, experienced or capable (than MOLECULAR MEDICINE) of satisfying all of MOLECULAR MEDICINE’s obligations hereunder.


  

	15.	Independent Contractors. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to create any relationship between MOLECULAR MEDICINE and SPONSOR other than that of independent
contracting parties. Neither party shall have any right, power, or authority to assume, create or incur an expense, liability, or obligation, express or implied, on behalf of the other. 

  

	16.	Waiver. No waiver by either party of any breach of any provision hereof shall constitute a waiver of any other breach of that or any provision of this Agreement.


  

 8 









	17.	Severability. If any part, term or provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of the Agreement shall not be affected and shall
remain in full force and effect. 

  

	18.	Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of California, regardless of the choice of law provisions of California or any other jurisdiction.


  

	19.	Exhibits and Schedules. All exhibits and schedules attached hereto are hereby incorporated in and made a part of this Agreement as if fully set forth herein.


  

	20.	Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute
one and the same instrument. 

  

	21.	Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the final, complete and exclusive agreement of the parties relative to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior and
contemporaneous understandings and agreements relating to its subject matter. This Agreement (including any Exhibits and schedules) may not be changed, modified, amended or supplemented except by a written instrument signed by authorized officers of

 CONFIDENTIAL 
 EXHIBIT E – TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF STORAGE 
 1. Storage Services. Molecular Medicine BioServices, Inc.
(“MMB” or the “Company”) will provide storage services to the “Sponsor” referenced above under the following Terms and Conditions of Storage (the “Terms & Conditions”). These
Terms & Conditions are the Standard Terms and Conditions of Storage that are referred to in the Production Service Agreement referenced above between MMB and such Sponsor (together with all exhibits thereto, the “PSA”).
These Terms & Conditions are an exhibit to and form part of the PSA. By entering into the PSA, the Sponsor agrees to be bound by these Terms & Conditions, including any future modifications to the Terms & Conditions that are
adopted and communicated to Sponsor by MMB. 
 2. Delivery of Stored Materials. Sponsor will deliver (or, as applicable, hereby directs MMB to
store) all materials, supplies and products intended to be stored with MMB under the PSA (collectively, the “Stored Materials”) at the times and in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Scope of Work that is attached to
the PSA (the “PSA Scope of Work”). All Stored Materials will be delivered in containers that are customary in the industry, that are adequately designed to maintain the viability of the materials contained therein and to prevent
cross-contamination, and that meet any other specifications that may be agreed to in writing by MMB and Sponsor, whether in the PSA Scope of Work or otherwise. All Stored Materials delivered to MMB will be accompanied by a completed deposit form in
the form attached hereto, together with any other information relevant to the storage of the Stored Materials, such as source of Stored Materials, lot number, grade and/or such other specifications as may be required in the Scope of Work or by
written mutual agreement of MMB and Sponsor. MMB shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to refuse to store any Stored Materials that do not meet the foregoing requirements. In no event will MMB be responsible for any loss or contamination
resulting from Sponsor’s failure to meet such delivery requirements, nothwithstanding the fact that MMB may have accepted Stored Materials that do not meet the foregoing requirements. 
 Sponsor understands and agrees that MMB cannot assume responsibility for the safety or quality of any Stored Materials that were not originally processed by MMB or that
have been removed from MMB’s control and later returned by MMB. Sponsor acknowledges and agrees in that either of such events, the sole responsibility of MMB is limited to the storage of such Stored Materials under conditions specified in the
relevant deposit order. 
 3. Storage Conditions. MMB will store the Stored Materials in the containers specified in the relevant deposit form,
and at the temperature and under the other conditions that are specified in the deposit form and that are agreed to by MMB. MMB will store the Stored Materials in accordance with current Good Manufacturing Practices as set forth in US 21 CFR Parts
210 and 211 applicable to pilot scale facilities and 21 CFR Part 600 applicable to biological products. 
 4. Term. MMB’s obligation to
provide storage services under these Terms and Conditions shall take effect on the effective date of the PSA and shall remain effective until the earlier of the Termination Date set forth in Section 6 and the termination date of the PSA. Upon
the termination of the PSA, Sponsor may renew MMB’s storage services for successive annual periods by providing written notice of such renewal to MMB no later than thirty (30) days prior to the termination of the PSA. Each annual renewal
period shall renew automatically, commencing on January 1 and ending on December 31 of each year, except that the initial renewal period will commence on the termination date of the PSA and end on December 31 of that year, with
storage fees for the initial period prorated accordingly. The initial term and subsequent renewal periods are each referred to herein as a “Storage Period.“ 
 5. Storage Fees. During the effective period of the PSA, Sponsor shall pay all storage fees in the amounts and at the times set forth in the Price and Payment Schedule of the PSA. Thereafter, Sponsor
shall pay in advance the fee for each annual Storage Period in amounts set forth in MMB’s then current standard storage fee schedule. All invoices are payable in United States dollars. All payments must be made via cash or check. Sponsor shall
be responsible for costs associated with MMB’s collection of sums due and owing to it pursuant to these Terms & Conditions including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, collection agency fees, and court
costs. 
 6. Termination. Notwithstanding any other provisions herein, MMB’s obligations to provide storage services to Sponsor shall
terminate upon the happening of any of the following events (each, a “Termination Event”): 
 (a) Termination or expiration
of the PSA for any reason without the Sponsor having elected to renew for an annual storage term; 
 (b) Written instruction of Sponsor
directing MMB to transfer all Stored Materials to another storage facility; 
 (c) Written instruction of Sponsor directing MMB to destroy all
Stored Materials; 
 (d) Failure of Sponsor to pay any storage fee within ten (10) days after the date of any notice of delinquency
from MMB to Sponsor, it being understood that termination for such non-payment shall not excuse Sponsor of its obligation to pay delinquent fees; 
 (e) Termination by Sponsor of MMB’s storage services after thirty (30) days written notice of termination to MMB; 
 (f)
Termination by MMB of MMB’s storage services after thirty (30) days written notice of termination to Sponsor. 
 Upon the occurrence of any
Termination Event, all obligations of MMB for storage of Sponsor’s Stored Materials shall cease. Sponsor shall make arrangements for release, destruction or other disposition of any remaining Stored Materials within thirty (30) days. IF
SPONSOR FAILS TO MAKE SUCH ARRANGEMENTS WITHIN SUCH TIME PERIOD, THE STORED MATERIALS WILL BE DEEMED ABANDONED AND MMB MAY, AT ITS SOLE DISCRETION, DESTROY ALL STORED MATERIALS REMAINING IN STORAGE WITH MMB. MMB ACCEPTS NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR LOSS OF
STORED MATERIALS DESTROYED BY MMB BECAUSE OF SPONSOR’S ABANDONMENT. There shall be no refund of storage fees upon termination of MMB’s storage services pursuant to paragraphs (a) – (e) above. A pro-rata refund of storage fees shall be
paid by MMB to Sponsor if MMB terminates its storage services pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section 6. 
 7. Delivery of Stored
Materials. In the event that MMB is directed by Sponsor to deliver any Stored Materials to any person, risk of loss for the Stored Materials shall be the responsibility of Sponsor upon release of the Stored Materials from MMB’s premises
(FOB shipping point) to a shipper that has been selected and approved by Sponsor. Sponsor shall have the obligation and the sole responsibility to ensure to its own satisfaction that such carrier carries adequate insurance. 
 8. Excused Performance. MMB shall not be responsible for any damage or destruction of the Stored Materials due to causes beyond its reasonable control,
including but not limited to acts of God, governmental actions, fire, smoke, labor difficulty, shortages, war, revolution, civil disturbances, terrorism, sabotage, blockade, embargo, explosion, transportation problems, interruptions of power or of
communications, failure of suppliers or subcontractors, or natural disasters. 
 9. Limitation of Liability. SPONSOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THERE
ARE INHERENT RISKS IN THE PROCESS OF FREEZING AND THAWING THE STORED MATERIALS AND AGREES THAT MMB SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS, DAMAGE, OR DESTRUCTION OF THE STORED MATERIALS AS LONG AS MMB HAS COMPLIED WITH THE STORAGE CONDITIONS SET FORTH IN
SECTION 3. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT IN THE EVENT OF LOSS, DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION OF THE STORED MATERIALS FOR ANY REASON WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, AS A RESULT OF MMB’S NEGLIGENCE OR ITS BREACH OF THESE
TERMS & CONDITIONS, SPONSOR’S REMEDY SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE STORAGE FEE PAID BY SPONSOR FOR THE STORAGE PERIOD IN WHICH SUCH LOSS, DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION OCCURRED. IN NO EVENT SHALL MMB BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY LOST PROFITS OR LOSS OF BUSINESS, WHETHER FORESEEABLE OR NOT), OCCASIONED BY ANY BREACH UNDER THESE TERMS & CONDITIONS OR ANY OTHER CAUSE OR CLAIM WHATSOEVER, WHETHER BASED ON
NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE. SPONSOR’S FAILURE TO ASSERT A CLAIM IN WRITING WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS OF MMB’S NOTICE TO SPONSOR OF THE LOSS, DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION OF STORED MATERIALS SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE SPONSOR’S ABSOLUTE AND
UNEQUIVOCAL WAIVER OF ANY AND ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO SUCH LOSS, DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION. SPONSOR WARRANTS THAT IT CARRIES PROPERTY INSURANCE FOR THE FULL REPLACEMENT VALUE OF THE STORED MATERIALS. 
 10. Indemnification. Sponsor shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless MMB, its directors, officers, employees and agents (collectively the “MMB
Indemnitees”) from and against any and all liability, loss, expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), or third party claims for injury or damages (collectively, “Liabilities”) arising out of the MMB’s
storage of the Stored Materials, provided that Sponsor shall have no obligation to indemnify the MMB Indemnitees for any portion of a Liability that arises from the negligence or willful misconduct of the MMB Indemnitees or from their breach of
these Terms & Conditions. 
 11. Assignment. Except in connection with a permitted assignment under the PSA, Sponsor may not assign
its rights or obligations under these Terms & Conditions, whether in whole or in part, to any third party without MMB’s prior written approval, which approval may be withheld by MMB in its sole discretion. 
 12. General. These Terms & Conditions shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California without regard to conflict of laws
principles. These Terms & Conditions and the applicable provisions of the PSA set forth the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the providing of storage services by MMB. Sponsor’s execution of the PSA constitutes
Sponsor’s acceptance of and agreement to these Terms & Conditions in their entirety. In the event of a conflict between the PSA and these Terms & Conditions, the terms herein shall govern. Each provision of these
Terms & Conditions shall be construed as separable and divisible from every other provision and that the enforceability of any one provision shall not limit the enforceability of any other provision(s) hereof. The section headings contained
in these Terms & Conditions are for reference purposes only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation hereof. No waiver by MMB or Sponsor of any default of the other hereunder shall be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent
default. These Terms & Conditions shall remain in effect until modified by MMB, which modifications shall take effect when communicated by MMB to Sponsor.
