	4.	CERTIFICATES OF ANALYSIS AND MANUFACTURING COMPLIANCE. 

 4.1 Certificates of Analysis:
At Client’s cost and expense, Althea shall test, or cause to be tested by third parties, in accordance with the Specifications, each Batch of Client Product Produced pursuant to this Agreement before delivery to Client. Althea shall deliver
a Certificate of Analysis for each Batch, which shall set forth the items tested, Specifications, and test results. Althea shall also indicate on the final page of the Released Executed Batch Record that all batch Production and control records have
been reviewed and approved by the appropriate quality control unit. Althea shall send, or cause to be sent, such certificates to Client prior to the shipment of Client Product (unless Client Product is shipped under quarantine). If Client is
responsible for final release testing, or if Client otherwise deems it appropriate, Client shall test, or cause to be tested, for final release, each Batch of Client Product to test for conformance to the Specifications. [***] 

4.2 Manufacturing Compliance: Althea shall advise Client immediately if an authorized agent of any Regulatory Authority schedules or
visits (or gives notice that it intends to schedule or visit) Althea’s manufacturing facility and makes an inquiry regarding Althea’s Production of Client Product for Client. Client shall be entitled to be present during any such
inspection or visit, and shall be further entitled to attend any end of visit wrap-up meeting with such regulatory agent, if feasible. [***] Althea shall promptly provide Client with a copy of any report or findings of such Regulatory Authority
relevant to Production or Client Product and of Althea’s intended response prior thereto to enable the parties to confer on such matter. 

4.3 Reserve Samples: Each party shall perform its respective obligations with respect to retention and reserve sample in accordance
with the applicable provisions of the Quality Agreement. 
 4.4 [Reserved] 

4.5 Distribution Records: Althea shall maintain for the time periods required by applicable Legal Requirements all of its manufacturing

[***] cGMP audit, and at such additional times as are reasonable to ascertain corrections following a finding of deficiency by Client during [***] audit or by a Regulatory Agency, Althea Batch
records and the portions of the Facility used for Production of Client Product. If the parties agree to audits (other than and not including for-cause audits) more than [***] or for more than [***], [***]. All audited data (other than and not
including Client’s Confidential Information) will be treated as Confidential Information of Althea, and Client shall not be permitted to remove or copy such audit data without Althea’s prior consent provided, however, that the
preceding limitation shall not be construed to limit Client’s access to, or use of, such audit data for purposes of conducting its audit or receipt of executed Master Batch Records for regulatory or other purposes. 

4.7 Regulatory Compliance: Althea is responsible for compliance with all Legal Requirements which are applicable to the operations in
which it is engaged and its obligations under this Agreement and the Quality Agreement, including, for example, the laws and regulations which apply generally to manufacture of drugs. Client shall be responsible for compliance with all Legal 

 Requirements which are applicable to all other aspects of the manufacture of Client Product, and to the use, and sale of Client Product, which
responsibility shall include, without limitation, all contact with the FDA regarding the foregoing. 
 4.8 Person in the Plant: As
further described in the Quality Agreement, and subject to and in accordance with Althea’s SOPs and other terms jointly agreed regarding access (time and place) to Althea’s Facility, Client shall have the right to designate [***]
representatives of Client to be present at any one time in the Althea Facility during normal business hours and at any other times while active Production is occurring to observe the Production and observe Althea’s performance of Services under
this Agreement 
  

	5.	ACCEPTANCE OF CLIENT PRODUCT. 

 5.1 Non-Conforming Client Product: Within [***]
from the date of completion of testing and Althea’s release of Batch of Client Product, Althea shall promptly forward to Client, or Client’s designee, copies of the Released Executed Batch Record and samples of such Batch. Within [***]
after receipt by Client of such samples together with the documentation, Client shall perform any testing it deems appropriate and review the documentation in order to determine, subject to Client’s rights below, whether Client Product is
Conforming. 
 (a) If (i) such Batch of Client Product is Conforming, or (ii) Client does not notify Althea within
the applicable [***] time period that such Batch of Client Product is non-Conforming, then Client shall be deemed to have accepted the Client Product and waived its right to revoke acceptance; provided however that Client shall have the right
to revoke acceptance for any Batch which is non-Conforming under all of the following conditions: [***]. 
 Alternatively, rather than initially issuing a
notice of rejection, Client may given written notice to Althea within the time period specified in this Section 5.1(a) of a Client decision to investigate whether a potentially non-Conforming Batch should be rejected, which investigation shall,
unless otherwise agreed by Client and Althea, be completed within the time period set forth in this Section 5.1(a). 
 (b) If
Client believes any Batch of Client Product is non-Conforming, it shall notify Althea [***], including a detailed explanation of the non-conformity, and shall [***]. Upon receipt of such notice, Althea will investigate such alleged non-conformity,
and (i) if Althea agrees such Client Product is non-Conforming, deliver to Client a corrective action plan within [***] after receipt of Client’s [***] notice of non-conformity, or such additional time as is reasonably required if such
investigation or

plan requires data from sources other than Client or Althea, or (ii) if Althea disagrees with Client’s determination that the Batch of Client Product is non-Conforming, Althea shall so
notify Client [***] within the [***] period [***]. 
 (c) If the parties dispute whether Client Product is Conforming, samples of the
Batch of Client Product will be [***] for resolution, whose determination of Conformity, and the cause thereof if non-Conforming, [***]. The fees of the laboratory or consultant shall be paid by [***], with each party 

initially paying directly to the laboratory or consultant one-half of the fees[***]. 

(d) For clarity, the parties agree that deviations and investigations may or may not result in non-Conforming Client Product, and that
the occurrence of a deviation or investigation does not, in and of itself, deem Client Product to be non-Conforming. The provisions set forth in the Quality Agreement shall control whether manufacturing deviations and investigations result in
non-Conforming Client Product. 
 5.2 Exclusive Remedies for Non Conforming Product: In the event Althea agrees, [***], that the
Batch of Client Product is non-Conforming and the non-Conformity was caused by Althea’s negligence or more culpable act or omission or Althea’s breach of this Agreement, the Quality Agreement or the related PWA, and Client rejects the
Batch, (or, in the event of a [***], Client revokes acceptance of the Batch in accordance with Section 5.1(a)), then Althea, at Client’s option, shall either: 

(i) subject to Client’s supply of the replacement Client Supplied Components ([***]), and [***], replace such non-Conforming Bulk Drug,
Drug Product or Finished Product, as the case may be, with conforming Bulk Drug, Drug Product or Finished Product, as applicable, within the following timeframes: (a) for Production of replacement Bulk Drug, within [***] from receipt of
replacement Client Supplied Components from Client, and (b) for Production of replacement Drug Product or Finished Product where Althea Produced the Bulk Drug or Drug Product for the non-Conforming Batch, within [***] from Client’s
election of remedies under this Section 5.2, or 
 (ii) upon demand, refund the Purchase Price of the non-Conforming Client Product
[***]. 
 In addition, in either (i) or (ii), Althea shall, if applicable, reimburse Client upon demand at Client’s cost for the value of the
related resins or other Components which were supplied or paid for by Client, to the extent the life span of such resins or other Components has been shortened or such resins or other Components have been rendered unusable (contamination, etc.).

 If the parties agree [***] that Client Product is non-Conforming due in whole or in part to (a) non-conforming Client Supplied Components for which
Client has testing and release responsibilities, (b) other matters which are the responsibility of Client, or (c) non-conforming Client Supplied Components for which Althea has testing and release responsibilities, where the non-conformity
was a latent defect that was not discoverable, at time of delivery, by reasonable testing of the Components and review of related documentation, then: (1) if the non-Conformity is due in whole to such matters, then Client will not be entitled
to the foregoing remedies, and (2) if the non-Conformity is due in part to such matters, then Althea’s financial responsibility under this Section 5.2 will be proportionately reduced based on the extent to which such matters
contributed to the non-Conformity. In addition, if Client elects the remedy under Section 5.2(i) above, the final invoice to be issued at completion of Production of said non-Conforming Batch of Client Product will not be issued and the amounts
due thereunder will not be payable until the date at which replacement Client Product is released and determined to be Conforming by Althea and Client.

	6.	CLIENT PRODUCT RECALLS. 

 In the event Client shall be required to recall any Client Product because such
Client Product may violate local, state or federal laws or regulations, or the laws or regulations of any applicable U.S. or foreign government or agency, or is non-Conforming, or in the event that Client elects to institute a voluntary recall,
withdrawal, field alert or similar action (collectively a “Recall”), Client shall be responsible for coordinating such Recall. Client promptly shall notify Althea if any Client Product is the subject of a Recall and provide Althea with a
copy of all documents relating to such Recall. Althea shall reasonably cooperate with Client in connection with any Recall, at Client’s expense (subject to Althea’s payment obligations below in this Article 6). Client shall be responsible
for all of the costs and expenses of such Recall, except in the event and to the extent such Recall is caused by [***], in which case Althea shall on demand reimburse Client for the actual documented cost of such Recall [***]. For clarity, such
reimbursement is in addition to any remedies Client may have under Section 5.2 for such [***]. 
  

	7.	FORCE MAJEURE; FAILURE TO SUPPLY. 

 7.1 Force Majeure Events: Failure of either
party to perform under this Agreement (except the obligation to make payments) shall not be a breach of this Agreement if such failure is caused by any event beyond the reasonable control of and without the fault or negligence of the party affected
thereby, including acts of God, acts of terrorism, fire, explosion, flood, drought, war, riot, sabotage, embargo, strikes or other labor trouble, or compliance with any order or regulation of any government entity, [***],
provided that written notice of such event is promptly given by the affected party to the other party. In the case of a force majeure event, Althea shall use commercially reasonable efforts to arrange for the Production of
Client Product through subcontracting or other means as appropriate, subject to Client’s prior written consent, to provide Conforming Client Product meeting Specifications and produced in substantial compliance with the Althea SOPs. The
responsibility for any differential in the cost for such Production will be [***]. However, if Althea is unable to provide a solution for the Production of Client Product within [***] of such event, Client may terminate this Agreement as specified
in Section 3.2(a) of this Agreement. 
 7.2 Failure to Supply: If Althea fails to supply all or any material part of
Client Product ordered by Client, Client may require Althea to supply the undelivered Client Product or a lesser quantity at a future date agreed upon by Althea and Client. The provisions of this Section 7.2 shall be without prejudice to
Client’s other rights and remedies at law and in equity, including under Section 3.2 and remedies provided for thereunder. 
  

	8.	CHANGES IN PRODUCTION. 

 8.1 Changes to Master Batch Records and Specifications:
Althea agrees to inform Client within [***] of the result of any regulatory development or changes to Client Product-specific Althea SOPs that materially affect the Production of Client Product. Althea shall notify Client of and require written
approval from Client for changes to Master Batch Records and Client Product Specifications prior to the Production of subsequent Batches of Client Product. 

8.2 Product-Specific Changes: If facility, equipment, process or system changes are required of Althea as a result of requirements set
forth by the FDA or any other Regulatory Authority, and such regulatory changes apply only to the Production and supply of one or more Client Products, then  

Client and Althea will review such requirements and agree in writing to such regulatory changes, [***]. 

8.3 General Changes: If such regulatory changes apply generally to the Client Product as well as to other products produced by Althea
for itself or for third parties, then [***]. If the regulatory

change is of such a nature that it applies to contract manufacturers providing services of the type provided generally by Althea and Althea may not offer certain services to Client under this
Agreement as a result, [***]. 
 8.4 Changes: Any change to any Specifications, any aspect of Production, or any vendor or supplier
of Components, shall be in accordance with the Quality Agreement. 
  

	9.	CONFIDENTIALITY. 

 9.1 Confidentiality. 

9.1.1 For purposes of this Agreement “Confidential Information” means (a) all information and data
disclosed or provided by or on behalf of one party to the other party in connection with this Agreement, whether in oral, written, graphic or electronic form, (b) with respect to Client, all information and data developed in or as a result of
the performance of this Agreement which describes or is related to Client Product, Alder Technology, Client’s Intellectual Property, Alder Technology Inventions or other Inventions or Intellectual Property of Client, whether in oral, written,
graphic or electronic form, and (c) with respect to Althea, all information and data developed in or as a result of the performance of this Agreement which describes or is related to Inventions or Intellectual Property of Althea, whether in
oral, written, graphic or electronic form. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all Inventions and Intellectual Property of a party shall be deemed the “Confidential Information” of such party. Client’s Confidential
Information includes, without limitation, (i) the Alder Technology, (ii) the Production Process, and (iii) the technical and other information contained in or relating to the documents and records describing or otherwise related to
the Production Process (including, without limitation, the MBR and the other Batch records), the cell line(s) for Client Product, the master and working cell bank(s) for Client Product, and/or Client Product. For clarity, the Confidential
Information described in Section 9.1.1(b) above shall be deemed the “Confidential Information” of Client, and, with respect thereto, Althea shall be deemed to be the Receiving Party; and the Confidential Information described in
Section 9.1.1(c) above shall be deemed the “Confidential Information” of Althea, and, with respect thereto, Client shall be deemed to be the Receiving Party. 

9.1.2 Each party (the “Receiving Party”) agrees, with respect to the Confidential Information of the other
party (the “Disclosing Party”): (a) to use such Confidential Information only for the purposes set forth in this Agreement; (b) to receive, maintain and hold the Confidential Information in strict confidence and to
use the same methods and degree of care (but at least reasonable care) to prevent disclosure of such Confidential Information as it uses to prevent disclosure of its own proprietary and Confidential Information and to protect against its
dissemination to unauthorized parties; (c) not to disclose, or authorize or permit the disclosure of any Confidential Information to any third party without the prior written consent of the Disclosing Party; and (d) except as needed to
fulfill its obligations hereunder, to return any Confidential Information to the Disclosing Party at the request of the Disclosing Party and to retain no copies or reproductions thereof, except that the Receiving Party may retain a single archival
copy of the Confidential Information for the sole purpose of determining the scope of obligations incurred under this Agreement.

 9.2 Limitations. The Receiving Party shall not be obligated to treat information as
Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party if the Receiving Party can show by competent written evidence that such information: (a) was already known to the Receiving Party without any obligations of confidentiality prior to receipt from
the Disclosing Party; (b) was generally available to the public or otherwise part of the public domain at the time of its disclosure to the Receiving Party; (c) became generally available to the public or otherwise part of the public
domain after its disclosure, through no fault of the Receiving Party; (d) was disclosed to the Receiving Party, other than under an obligation of confidentiality, by a third party who had no obligation not to disclose such information to
others; or (e) was independently discovered or developed by the Receiving Party without the use of or reference to the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information. 

9.3 Authorized Disclosure. Notwithstanding Section 9.1, the Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information, without
violating its obligations under Article 9, to the extent the disclosure is required by a valid order of a court or other governmental body having jurisdiction; provided, however, that the Receiving Party gives reasonable prior
written notice to the Disclosing Party of such required disclosure and makes a reasonable effort to assist the Disclosing Party in obtaining, a protective order preventing or limiting the disclosure and/or requiring that the Confidential Information
so disclosed be used only for the purposes for which the law or regulation requires, or for which the order was issued, and thereafter discloses only the minimum Confidential Information required to be disclosed in order to comply, whether or not a
protective order or other similar order is obtained by the Disclosing Party. 
 The Receiving Party will limit access to the Confidential Information
of the Disclosing Party to only those of the Receiving Party’s employees or authorized representatives having a need to know in connection with such party’s performance of its obligations under this Agreement and who are bound by
obligations of confidentiality and non-use consistent with and at least as stringent as those set forth herein. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Althea shall be permitted to disclose Client Product information to third party developmental and analytical service providers who are permitted subcontractors hereunder and who have a need to know such information in connection with performance of
its obligations hereunder, provided such providers shall be subject to and bound by obligations of confidentiality and non-use consistent with and at least as stringent as those set forth herein. 

No provision of this Agreement shall be construed so as to preclude the use or disclosure of Confidential Information as may be reasonably necessary for
Client to secure any regulatory or governmental approvals or licenses with respect to Client Product, or of either party to obtain patents related to its Inventions and Intellectual Property, or to limit either party’s ownership of, or ability
to use its Intellectual Property. 
 9.4 Injunctive Relief. The parties expressly acknowledge and agree that any breach or threatened
breach of this Article 9 may cause immediate and irreparable harm to the Disclosing Party which may not be adequately compensated by damages. Each party therefore agrees that in the event of such breach or threatened breach and in addition to any
remedies available at law, the Disclosing Party shall have the right to seek equitable and injunctive relief, without bond, in connection with such a breach or threatened breach. 

9.5 Public Announcements. The parties acknowledge that it is their intention not to issue a press release or make any other public
announcement of the execution of this Agreement. All publicity, press releases and other announcements relating to this Agreement shall be reviewed in advance by, and subject to the approval of, both parties (which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld); provided, however, that either party may (a) disclose the terms of this Agreement insofar as required to comply with applicable securities laws, provided that in the case of such disclosures the party proposing
to make such

to such party’s investors, professional advisors or potential investors, acquirers, or merger candidates, on a need to know basis, who are bound by obligations of confidentiality and non-use consistent with those set forth herein. Each party
agrees that it shall cooperate fully and in a timely manner with the other with respect to any disclosures to the Securities and Exchange Commission and any other governmental or regulatory agencies, including requests for confidential treatment of
Confidential Information of either party included in any such disclosure. 
 9.6 Duration of Confidentiality: Except as otherwise
provided in Section 3.5 of this Agreement, all obligations of confidentiality and non-use imposed upon the parties under this Agreement shall expire [***] after the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement; provided, however,
that Confidential Information which constitutes the trade secrets of a party shall be kept confidential indefinitely and shall remain subject to the confidentiality and non-use provisions of this Article 9 indefinitely, subject to the limitations
set forth in Sections 9.2 and 9.3.
