	 	4.1.	Buyer shall submit written purchase orders to Seller at least six (6) weeks prior to the requested date of delivery. The purchase order issued by Buyer shall be for a minimum of [***]. 


Buyer accepts a maximum of [***]% deviation between ordered and delivered quantity of Antibodies in aggregate. Seller will be obliged to
confirm any such order and will use commercially reasonable efforts to make delivery thereof within the lead time set out above provided that the order (together with previous orders during the same year) reflects a reasonably even distribution of
the forecasted quantity over the year and that the cumulative quantity ordered for that year does not exceed the forecasted quantity for that year and are within Seller’s production capacity. Accepted orders are binding on both parties and not
subject to modification without agreement of both parties. 
  

	 	4.2.	Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver any ordered quantities of Antibodies that are in excess of the most recent forecast for such period. 


 

	 	4.3.	If Seller refuses to deliver any ordered quantities of Antibodies which Seller is obliged to deliver pursuant to Section 4.1, then Seller’s total liability to Buyer under this Agreement and the Manufacturing
Agreement shall in no event exceed an aggregate amount of [***]. Said liability is subject to Seller being unable to make full delivery pursuant to the original order within sixty (60) days from Buyer’s written notice requesting Seller to
make delivery of the shortfall quantity. For the avoidance of doubt, Seller is always entitled to refuse to perform, for instance to refuse to accept orders and refuse delivery of accepted orders, where Buyer is in breach of this Agreement.

	6.	PRICES AND PAYMENT 

  

	 	6.1.	Prices for the Antibodies are set out in Schedule 3. 

  

	 	6.2.	On an annual basis beginning on the first anniversary of the Effective Date, Seller shall be entitled to increase the price for the Antibodies to reflect any increase in the preceding year in the consumer price index
issued by Statistiska Centralbyrån in Sweden. Furthermore, if in any year (i) the increase in Seller’s cost of procurement of raw materials significantly exceeds the increase in the consumer price index in such year, and/or
(ii) Seller has suffered significantly increased costs in order to comply with unforeseen amended regulations that are applicable to the manufacture or supply of the Antibodies, then to the extent such increases in cost are not covered by the
automatic increase based on consumer price index, then Seller shall be entitled to increase the price for Antibodies to cover also such increases in costs by giving Buyer not less than sixty (60) days prior written notice and Seller will set
out in such notice the reason and justification for any such price increase. If Seller increases the price of the Antibodies by more than [***] percent ([***]%) in the aggregate in any five year period during the term of this Agreement, then Buyer
shall be released from its exclusive purchase undertaking hereunder unless Seller has offered to Buyer to sell Antibodies at the same price as Buyer has been quoted from a third party manufacturer. To enable such an offer from Seller, Buyer shall
without delay provide Seller with a copy of the relevant third party quotation (provided it is at liberty to do so) and give Seller at least thirty (30) days to meet such third party quotation. If Seller has not within said 30 days confirmed in
writing that it reduces its price for Antibodies for future orders to the level of the third party quotation, then Buyer shall be released from its exclusive purchase undertaking hereunder. 


 

	 	6.3.	 Seller shall invoice Buyer upon each shipment of Antibodies. Buyer shall pay each invoice in advance of each requested delivery date. Without limiting
other remedies

available to Seller, failure by Buyer to make timely payment hereunder shall entitle Seller to refuse to accept further orders for Antibodies and to withhold the Antibodies ordered as well as to

	7.	DELIVERY, RISK AND TITLE 

  

	 	7.1.	Delivery term shall be Ex Works Seller’s site of manufacture (Incoterms 2000).

	8.	PACKAGING 

  

	 	8.1.	Seller agrees to package and deliver the Antibodies as set forth in the Specifications and otherwise pursuant to Seller’s standards. 


 

	9.	INFORMATION AND REGULATORY SUPPORT 

  

	 	9.1.	Seller will make available to the pertinent regulatory authorities throughout the term of the Agreement on reasonable request such of its information, know-how and documentation that Buyer is required to submit to such
regulatory authorities to obtain and maintain regulatory approval of the Diagnostic Kit. Buyer shall have the sole responsibility of obtaining and maintaining all governmental or regulatory licences, authorisations, registrations and clearances for
use and sale of the Diagnostic Kit. 

  

	 	9.2.	Seller shall permit regulatory authorities to inspect during business hours and subject to reasonable advance notice, Seller’s facilities where the Antibodies are manufactured. 


 

	 	9.3.	Seller shall permit Buyer to inspect not more frequently than once a year and during business hours and subject to reasonable advance notice, Seller’s facilities where the Antibodies are manufactured provided that

REQUEST. REDACTED MATERIAL IS MARKED WITH [***] AND HAS BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. 
  


	 	9.4.	Changes in Specifications. Seller shall have the control over any updates and changes but shall not make any material changes to its current manufacturing methods, materials and processes or quality control
testing methods for the Antibodies (collectively “Changes”) without Oxford’s prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The expression “material changes” used above means changes which
Buyer is required to notify to regulatory authorities. 

  

	10.	QUALITY AND WARRANTY 

  

	 	10.1.	Seller warrants that all Antibodies manufactured and supplied under this Agreement shall be in material conformity with the Specifications. 


 

	 	10.2.	Each party warrants further that it has all the necessary rights and powers to grant the rights to the other party as provided in this Agreement, and that the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement do not
result in a violation or conflict with any agreements with third parties. 

  

	 	10.3.	Promptly upon receipt of each shipment of Antibodies Buyer will perform thorough incoming inspection. In addition to incoming inspection, and before any use of the Antibodies, Buyer shall thoroughly and with reasonable
care inspect the Antibodies for conformity to Specifications. If at any time Buyer finds that the Antibodies do not conform to the Specifications, Buyer shall within fifteen (15) days after the discovery of the non-conforming Antibodies, give
Seller written notice of any claim setting forth the details of such non-conformity, or otherwise Buyer shall be deemed to have accepted the Antibodies. Seller shall, if it accepts the notice of claim and as Buyer’s sole remedy, replace any
non-conforming Antibodies as soon as practicable and at Seller’s expense, provided that the warranty has not expired at the time that Seller was notified of the non-conformity of the Antibodies. In accordance with Seller’s request, any
Antibodies which do not conform to the Specifications shall either be returned to Seller or destroyed at Seller’s expense. Payment for Antibodies prior to acceptance shall not constitute acceptance.

REQUEST. REDACTED MATERIAL IS MARKED WITH [***] AND HAS BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. 
  


	 	10.4.	If Seller does not accept a claim it will promptly inform Buyer in writing of its reasons. In the event the parties disagree as to whether the Antibodies conform to the Specifications, the rejected Antibodies shall be
submitted to a mutually acceptable third party testing laboratory, which will determine whether such Antibodies meet the Specifications. The parties agree that such testing laboratory’s determination shall be final and binding. The party
against whom the testing laboratory rules will bear the reasonable costs of the testing laboratory. If the testing laboratory rules that the Antibodies meet the Specifications, Buyer will purchase the Antibodies at the
agreed-upon price, irrespective of whether Seller has already replaced same. If the testing laboratory rules that the Antibodies do not meet the Specifications and the Antibodies were not replaced, Seller
would credit Buyer’s account in an amount equal to the purchase price of the rejected Antibodies, or refund that sum to Buyer as appropriate. 

  

	 	10.5.	The warranties expressly set forth in this Agreement are in lieu of all other warranties, and Seller disclaims all other warranties, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability or fitness for a
particular purpose. Seller expressly disclaims any representations and warranties regarding the performance, safety and efficacy of the Antibodies in combination with the Product or the Diagnostic Kit. 


 

	11.	INDEMNITY 

  

	 	11.1.	 Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller, its Affiliates, and its and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents
(collectively “the Seller Indemnified Party”) against any and all claims, liabilities, losses, damages, costs or expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of any claim or action brought by a third party
(collectively, “Losses”) incurred or suffered by the Seller Indemnified Party to the extent arising out of or caused by the use of the Product or the Antibodies or the manufacture, distribution, marketing, promotion, sale or use of

the Product or Diagnostic Kit, by or on behalf of Buyer or its Affiliates or customers (including without limitation any claims based upon product liability), other than those as a result of
gross negligence or intentional misconduct of the Seller (or any of its employees or agents). 

  

	 	11.2.	Should Seller intend to claim indemnification hereunder, it shall promptly notify Buyer in writing of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect of which Seller intends to claim such indemnification, and
Buyer shall assume the defence thereof with counsel selected by Buyer, and Seller including its employees and agents, shall co-operate fully with Buyer and its legal representatives in the investigation and defence of any action, claim or liability
covered by this indemnification. The indemnification shall not apply to amounts paid by Seller in settlement of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of Buyer. The failure to deliver notice
to Buyer within a reasonable time after the commencement of any such action, if and to the extent prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve Buyer of such liability to Seller hereunder. 


 

	 	11.3.	Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the maximum liability of Seller to Buyer hereunder during the life of this Agreement (initial term and all renewals) for any claim or claims,
whether arising under contract, warranty, tort (including negligence), strict liability, or any other theory of liability or indemnification shall not exceed [***] percent ([***]%) of the total price paid by Buyer to Seller for Antibodies during the
twelve (12) calendar month period immediately preceding the date that Buyer notifies of a claim for indemnification. 

  

	 	11.4.	 IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY OR THEIR AFFILIATES BE LIABLE FOR SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR THIRD PARTY
CLAIMS (INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS OR REVENUES), WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY AND IRRESPECTIVE OF WHETHER SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF ANY SUCH LOSS OR

DAMAGE; PROVIDED, THAT THIS LIMITATION SHALL NOT LIMIT THE INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATION OF SUCH PARTY UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF CLAUSE 11.1 FOR SUCH DAMAGES CLAIMED BY A THIRD PARTY.


  

	12.	CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION 

  

	 	12.1.	Neither party shall, during the term of this Agreement and until all Confidential Information is subject to the exceptions in Section 12.2, disclose or permit to be disclosed to any third party or use any
Confidential Information of the other except for purposes expressly permitted herein. It is expressly understood that Buyer is entitled to disclose Confidential Information to its Affiliates, agents and third parties insofar as this is necessary for
marketing, distribution and sales of the Diagnostic Kits provided that the receivers of such information are under confidentiality and non-use obligations to Buyer that are no less stringent than those contained herein, and to disclose Confidential
Information as required to any governmental authorities in any country in order to obtain and/or maintain regulatory approval. In the event of such disclosure, Buyer shall take all reasonable steps to protect the Confidential Information from
further disclosure. 

  

	 	12.2.	The provisions of Section 12.1. shall not apply to: 

  

	 	12.2.1.	information which at the time of disclosure is published or otherwise generally available to the public;

Information that is otherwise Confidential Information and consists of a combination of information shall not be deemed to be in the public
domain if individual elements of such information are in the public domain, unless the specific combination of those elements is also in the public domain.
