 Article 2         Object of the Agreement

  

	2.1	Cooperative Partnership 

 Regulatory compliant manufacturing and testing services are
required to enable the efficient advancement of REGENX-established NAV gene therapy programs, requiring the transfer ofspecific technical and process information to a contract development and manufacturing organization. Once transferred, efficiency
is gained in the application of this information to subsequent products utilizing the REGENX technology for the development of REGENX products or those of REGENX licensees. Moreover, the ability to provide process development, manufacturing and
testing facilities of adequate capacity and meeting compliance standards appropriate for supply of late stage clinical and commercial materials provides an incentive for adoption of the REGENX technology and can advance the programs of REGENX
licensees. 
 WUXI APPTEC is currently providing specialized process development, testing and compliant manufacturing services for an array
of biological and cellular therapy products and is expanding facilities and capabilities to provide services to support the clinical and commercial supply of gene therapy products. Establishing familiarity with the REGENX process and analytical
technology, and receiving access to future technology enhancements may provide an advantage to WUXI APPTEC in providing commercial services for the programs of REGENX and its licensees. 

REGENX and WUXI APPTEC acknowledge each other as cooperative partners with the goal of establishing WUXI APPTEC as the preferred process
development, testing and manufacturing service provider for REGENX and REGENX licensees. Through this cooperative partnering relationship WUXI APPTEC will work with REGENX to establish standard processes applicable to the REGENX technology platform
which may be applied for the development, testing and manufacture of REGENX products or those of REGENX licensees. In partnering, the parties intend to enhance the contract service business opportunities for WUXI APPTEC and to enhance the business
opportunities of REGENX (1) in the efficient development of its gene therapy programs, (2) in the adoption of REGENX manufacturing technology, and (3) through the provision of a knowledgeable and compliant manufacturing and testing
resource for its licensees. 
  

	2.2	Joint Steering Committee 

 REGENX and WUXI APPTEC will develop a Joint Steering Committee
consisting of **** in order to discuss and address issues relating to the Cooperation Agreement. **** shall be selected by REGENX and **** shall be selected by WUXI APPTEC. The Joint Steering Committee shall meet **** or otherwise as agreed-to by
the members, either in person or by phone. 
  

	2.3	Technology transfer and manufacturing resources 

 REGENX shall provide process
development, analytical methods and information and training necessary for WUXI APPTEC to reasonably provide process development, testing and manufacturing services for the production of REGENX products. WUXI APPTEC will establish these services
consistent with its manufacturing, testing and quality systems in order to provide regulatory compliant services to REGENX and REGENX licensees. For the avoidance of doubt, WUXI APPTEC shall provide services incorporating REGENX-provided
information, methods and training only to REGENX and REGENX licensees. 
  

	2.4	Ongoing support and technology advancements 

 REGENX will provide reasonable direct
support and the assistance of its technical, scientific staff and advisors if requested, to advise WUXI APPTEC on the effective application of the technology or to troubleshoot or resolve technical issues to the best of its abilities which may arise
in the application of REGENX technology on behalf of WUXI APPTEC’s support of REGENX and its licensees. WUXI APPTEC and REGENX will work cooperatively to incorporate reasonable advancements in manufacturing processes, analytical testing or
quality control paradigms which may provide for increased process efficiency, safety, quality or regulatory compliance.
