NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained here and for other good and valuable consideration,
the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows: 







 1. Incorporation of the Agreement. All capitalized terms which are used but not
otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings as set forth in the Agreement, and the Agreement, to the extent not inconsistent with this Ninth Amendment, is incorporated herein by this reference as though the same was set forth in its
entirety. To the extent any terms and provisions of the Agreement are inconsistent with this Ninth Amendment, such terms and provisions shall be deemed superseded by the Ninth Amendment. Except as specifically set forth herein, the Agreement shall
remain in full force and effect and its provisions shall be binding on the Parties. 
 2. Process Development Work. The Parties
agree that AbbVie shall perform the Stage set forth in Attachment 1 hereto entitled “Stage 14: Stability Testing” pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Agreement and this Ninth Amendment. 

3. Payment Schedule. As compensation for the Stage to be performed by AbbVie pursuant to Attachment 1 hereto and the remaining

hereto entitled “Updated Summarized Payment Schedule (Amendments 7 & 9)”.
 4. Project References. All references
to the Project set forth in the Agreement shall also be deemed to apply to the Stage performed by AbbVie pursuant to this Ninth Amendment. 

5. Effectuation. The amendment to the Agreement contemplated by this Ninth Amendment shall be deemed effective as of the last date
written below upon the full execution of this Ninth Amendment and without any further action required by the Parties hereto. There are no conditions precedent or subsequent to the effectiveness of this Ninth Amendment. All terms and conditions
set forth in the Agreement that are not amended hereby shall remain in full force and effect. Any term of this Ninth Amendment may be amended with the written consent of both Parties. From the date hereof, any reference to the Agreement
shall be deemed to refer to the Agreement as amended by this Ninth Amendment. 
 6. Counterparts. This Ninth Amendment may be
executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. One or more counterparts of this Ninth Amendment may be delivered by facsimile, with the
intention that delivery by such means shall have the same effect as delivery of an original counterpart thereof. 
 7. Entire
Agreement. This Ninth Amendment is the product of both Parties, and together with the Agreement and exhibits thereto, constitute the entire agreement between the Parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof, and merge all prior
negotiations and drafts of the Parties with regard to the transactions contemplated herein.
