11

any Other Aurinia Licensees by the order number, batch number or other equivalent means.
3.1.4    In order for the Parties to take advantage of the forecasting and planning process set out in this Article, and for the Parties to be able to rely on the Rolling Forecasts and Purchase Orders arising therefrom, there are necessary limits on the changes to the forecasting and ordering process. Throughout the planning process, including in respect of changes where the actual demand exceeds what was contemplated in the Rolling Forecasts as changed as permitted hereby, the Parties will cooperate and act in good faith and with a view to the efficient Manufacture of Product for Otsuka, Aurinia and Other Aurinia Licensees and for Third Parties for other products containing the Compound.
3.2    Long Term Production Forecast
Otsuka shall, concurrently with the delivery of each Rolling Forecast referred to in Section 3.3, deliver to Aurinia a written forecast showing Otsuka’s good faith non-binding estimated monthly requirements for Bulk Product and Semi-Finished Product by SKU for a minimum of the following [redacted] (each, a “Long Term Production Forecast”, which forecast will set out Otsuka’s good faith estimate of both the base case and upside forecasts at the time of delivery of the forecast.
3.3    Rolling Forecasts
3.3.1    At least [redacted] prior to the commencement of each Calendar Quarter, Otsuka shall deliver to Aurinia a written rolling forecast specifying Otsuka’s good faith estimated monthly requirements for Bulk Product and Semi-Finished Product by SKU for the following [redacted] (the “Rolling Forecast”) comprised of the following elements:

3.4    Permitted Changes to the Rolling Forecasts
To enable planning for the Manufacture of Compound, and the subsequent scheduling of the Manufacture of Bulk Product and Semi-Finished Product, the purchase of necessary long lead time Raw Materials (as defined in the applicable CMO Agreement), and for Manufacturing capacity planning purposes, it is the intention of the Parties that the variance in forecasted demand for Bulk Product and Semi-Finished Product by SKU for each four Calendar Quarter period narrows as such period comes closer to being binding on the Parties. To facilitate the narrowing of the variances, except as otherwise agreed between the Parties:
3.4.1    no changes to the Rolling Forecast for Bulk Product or Semi-Finished Product by SKU may be made in respect of Calendar Quarters forming part of the Binding Period for such Bulk Product or Semi-Finished Product;
3.4.2    the Rolling Forecast for Bulk Product or Semi-Finished Product by SKU for a [redacted] Calendar Quarter period may be modified by Otsuka in a subsequent Rolling Forecast to 




Certain identified information has been excluded from this exhibit because it both (i) is not material and (ii) would be competitively harmful if publicly disclosed.





12

increase or decrease the forecasted demand for each such Product in such subsequent Rolling Forecast by up to:
.1    [redacted]  in the aggregate from when such [redacted]  Calendar Quarter period becomes the [redacted] Forecast to when such [redacted]  Calendar Quarter period becomes the [redacted] Forecast; and
.2    [redacted]  in the aggregate from when such [redacted] r Calendar Quarter period becomes the [redacted]  Forecast to when such [redacted]  Calendar Quarter period becomes the [redacted]  Forecast;
3.4.3    no forecast for a Calendar Quarter in the Rolling Forecast may be modified to exceed the availability of Compound or long lead time Raw Materials (as defined in any applicable CMO Agreement) ordered and Manufactured in the ordinary course of business in reliance on Otsuka’s forecasts as contemplated by Section 3.7;
3.4.4    except for the Binding Period, Otsuka may move the forecast for any month in a Calendar Quarter to any other month in the same Calendar Quarter;
3.4.5    a change made pursuant to any one of Section 3.4.1 through 3.4.4 may be made only if such change does not violate the limitation in changes set out in any other Section of Sections 3.4.1 through 3.4.4; and
3.4.6    any change made by Otsuka pursuant to this Section 3.4 will not relieve Otsuka of any payment obligations arising prior to such change, and Otsuka will bear any costs associated with such change.
3.5    Other Proposed Changes
If a forecast or a change to a forecast described in Section 3.4 may impact a production schedule with a CMO, or the actual or anticipated inventories of Product of Otsuka, or the aggregated inventories of Aurinia or any Other Aurinia Licensees for Product and Third Parties for other products containing the Compound, or require the consent of a CMO, the Parties will consult with each other and, on request by Otsuka, Aurinia will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to arrange for such change with the applicable CMO(s); or the Parties modify such requests or changes, acting reasonably.
3.6    Example

9.5    Certain Costs to be Allocated Reasonably
Except as set out in this Article or otherwise expressly agreed between the Parties in a document executed by the authorized signatories of each Party, any Aurinia costs to be shared between the Parties (other than costs to be allocated pursuant to Section 2.8(j) of the Collaboration Agreement), shall be Allocated Reasonably between the Otsuka Territory and the Aurinia Territory (and, if such costs apply to Aurinia Domain Products, between Products and Aurinia Domain Products).

9.6.1    Prior to the Effective Date, Aurinia has paid to Lonza [redacted] ([redacted]) of the Capital Program Fee, and anticipates that the remainder will be paid by Aurinia to Lonza in [redacted] upon Operational Qualification of the Facility. The Capital Program Fee secures the Facility for a term of [redacted], or [redacted]  Calendar Quarters.
9.6.2    Upon Operational Qualification of the Facility, Aurinia will commence paying the Quarterly Fixed Fee to Lonza.
9.6.3    Upon Operational Qualification of the Facility, and for the next [redacted]  Calendar Quarters, in respect of each Calendar Quarter or pro-rata portion thereof, Aurinia will invoice Otsuka and Otsuka shall pay: Otsuka’s allocation of [redacted] of the Capital Program Fee, allocated as set out in Section 9.7.
9.6.4    Upon Operational Qualification of the Facility, and for the remainder of the term of the Lonza Agreement and any renewal thereof, in respect of each Calendar Quarter or pro-rata portion thereof, Aurinia will invoice Otsuka and Otsuka shall pay: Otsuka’s allocation of the Quarterly Fixed Facility Fee, allocated as set out in Section 9.7.
9.7    Allocation Method for Certain Lonza Costs
9.7.1    The charges referred to in Sections 9.6.3 and 9.6.4 for each Calendar Quarter shall be allocated between Aurinia and Otsuka based on:
.1    if Compound is Manufactured in the Facility in a Calendar Year, the proportion of Compound (including accounting for any Lonza Intermediate) Manufactured in the Facility for the benefit of each Party in the Calendar Year in which such Calendar Quarter occurs; and
.2    if no Compound is Manufactured in the Facility in a Calendar Year, the proportion of Compound (including accounting for any Lonza Intermediate) Manufactured in the Facility for the benefit of each Party in the [redacted]  Calendar Years following the Calendar Year in which no Compound is Manufactured in the Facility.

26

.2    (or, if the Parties anticipate that no Compound will be Manufactured in the Facility in such Calendar Year, in the five Calendar Years following such Calendar Year;
and shall discuss the allocation of Fixed Fees for such Calendar Year in the meetings of the Manufacturing and Supply Subcommittee referred to in Section 8.2.
9.7.3    The Parties shall agree, acting reasonably, to the initial allocation of Fixed Fees for the purposes of the payments in Section 9.6.3 and 9.6.4.
9.7.4    If Compound was Manufactured in the Facility in a Calendar Year, at the end of January following such Calendar Year, the Parties shall reconcile such initial allocation and charges for the Fixed Fees for such Calendar Year based on the difference between the anticipated proportion of Compound Manufactured for the benefit of each Party in the Facility in such Calendar Year and the actual proportion of Compound Manufactured for the benefit of each Party in the Facility in such Calendar Year.
9.7.5    If no Compound was Manufactured in the Facility in a Calendar Year, at the end of January following each of the [redacted]  and [redacted]  Calendar Years following the Calendar Year in which no Compound is Manufactured in the Facility, the Parties shall reconcile such initial allocation and charges for the Fixed Fees for such Calendar Year based on the difference between: (i) the anticipated proportion of Compound Manufactured for the benefit of each Party in the Facility over the period commencing at the end Calendar Year in which no Compound is Manufactured in the Facility until the date of reconciliation; and (ii) the actual proportion of Compound Manufactured for the benefit of each Party in the Facility in such period; and, at the [redacted] reconciliation, taking into account any payments made arising from the three year reconciliation.
9.7.6    If a Party has overpaid its allocation of Fixed Fees for a particular Calendar Year, such overpayment shall be credited against Fixed Fee payments for the Calendar Year following the reconciliation, or, if there will be no further Fixed Fee payments allocated to such Party, the overpaying Party may invoice the other Party for the overpayment, and the other Party shall pay such overpayment within [redacted] of receipt of such invoice.
9.8    Pass Through of Other Manufacturing Costs
Other charges incurred under the CMO Agreements (e.g., costs billed under the separate scope(s) of work by Lonza or maintenance and storage fees from Catalent) will be allocated by the Parties, acting reasonably, based on the proportion of Compound and/or Bulk Product or Semi-Finished Product, as applicable, for the benefit of each Party incurring such charges. If requested by either Party, the Parties will estimate such allocation and share the costs based on the estimate, with such allocation to be reconciled after the fact.
9.9    US GAAP
All of the foregoing shall be determined in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles consistently applied in Aurinia financial statements.
Article 10 Payment Terms
10.1    Payment Timing
Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, the Parties will act reasonably to ensure that the payments by Aurinia to CMOs under this Agreement will be structured so that Aurinia will not be out of pocket with respect to orders for the supply of Compound or Product or other payments made for the benefit of or on behalf of Otsuka under each applicable CMO Agreement.

10.5    Exchange Rate; Manner and Place of Payment
All payments hereunder shall be payable in U.S. Dollars and all references to Dollars and “$” herein shall refer to U.S. Dollars.  When Aurinia converts any payment made by Aurinia (all or part of which may be passed through to Otsuka pursuant to the terms of this Agreement) from any currency other than U.S. Dollars, the conversion shall be calculated as of the day the payment is made by Aurinia using a standard conversion method consistent with GAAP using a widely accepted source of published exchange such as published by OANDA.com or any substitute agreed-to between the Parties. All payments owed under this Agreement shall be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to a bank and account designated in writing by Aurinia, unless otherwise specified in writing by Aurinia.
Article 11 Representations and Warranties
11.1    Aurinia Representations and Warranties
Aurinia represents and warrants to Otsuka that, to Aurinia’s Knowledge, except with respect to special batch circumstances mutually agreed to by the Parties, the manufacture of Product shall be performed in accordance with cGMP and the applicable CMO quality agreement(s) and will meet the Specifications in compliance with all Applicable Laws at the date of delivery.
11.2    Pass-Through
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, to the extent a Product is Manufactured by one or more CMO(s), in whole or in part, and such CMO(s) provide(s) a warranty on the Product, in whole or in part, Aurinia shall not provide Otsuka any warranty on any such Products Manufactured by a CMO(s) (or any applicable part(s) thereof) other than the warranty(ies) offered by such CMO(s) in the CMO Agreement(s) and subject to the applicable limitations and warranties by Otsuka set out therein.
11.3    Otsuka Representations and Warranties
Otsuka represents and warrants to Aurinia that the artwork and labeling supplied by Otsuka shall have been produced in accordance with and not violate Applicable Laws or infringe the rights of any Third Party and shall comply with all applicable specifications.
11.4    Limited Warranties
THE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES SET FORTH IN THIS Article 11 ARE THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES MADE BY EACH PARTY TO THE OTHER PARTY, AND NEITHER PARTY MAKES ANY OTHER REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES OR GUARANTEES OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, NON-INFRINGEMENT OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
Article 12 Limitations of Liability
12.1    No Additional Risk
If a Product is Manufactured by one or more CMO(s), in whole or in part, it is the intention of the Parties that, given the limited return to Aurinia for undertaking its supply and other obligations hereunder, Aurinia not take on any greater risk under this Agreement than the CMOs take on under the applicable CMO Agreements. For clarity, the forgoing does not relieve Aurinia of liability to Otsuka attributable to the negligence or willful misconduct of Aurinia (and not attributable to a CMO), but limits the liability and remedies of Otsuka hereunder in the same manner as the liability and remedies of Aurinia (as customer) are limited in the applicable CMO Agreements.




Certain identified information has been excluded from this exhibit because it both (i) is not material and (ii) would be competitively harmful if publicly disclosed.





29

12.2    Pass Through of Liabilities and Remedies
12.2.1    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, if a Product is Manufactured by one or more CMO(s), in whole or in part, to the extent that the performance or failure to perform of any CMO under the applicable CMO Agreement gives rise to liability on the part of Aurinia to Otsuka hereunder, Aurinia’s liability to Otsuka and Otsuka’s remedies against Aurinia shall be limited to the same liability and remedies that Aurinia may avail itself of and recovers from such CMO. Aurinia shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to recover such liabilities or obtain such remedies and pass same through to Otsuka. For clarity, the forgoing does not relieve Aurinia of liability to Otsuka attributable to the negligence or willful misconduct of Aurinia (and not attributable to a CMO), but limits the liability and remedies of Otsuka hereunder in the same manner as the liability and remedies of Aurinia (as customer) are limited in the applicable CMO Agreements.
12.2.2    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:
.1    any limits to liability set out in the applicable CMO Agreement shall apply to Aurinia’s liability hereunder and constitute part of this Agreement for the benefit of Aurinia as if set forth herein.
.2    where a CMO owes an obligation to Aurinia under a CMO Agreement, and Aurinia owes a similar obligation to Otsuka hereunder, or visa-versa, in the event of any conflict between this Agreement and a CMO Agreement, the terms of the CMO Agreement shall apply mutatis mutandis as between Aurinia (as supplier) and Otsuka (as customer) and such terms of the CMO Agreement shall prevail to the extent of such inconsistency.
Article 13 Term and Termination
13.1    Term
This Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall continue in full force and effect, unless otherwise terminated pursuant to this Article 13, until the expiry or earlier termination of the Collaboration Agreement (the “Term”).
13.2    Termination by Otsuka
Otsuka may, at its option, immediately terminate this Agreement by giving notice to Aurinia if there is any Material Failure to Supply and Otsuka elects to terminate both this Agreement and the Collaboration Agreement in accordance with Section 5.7.3.
13.3    Termination by Aurinia
Upon transfer of Manufacturing to Otsuka in accordance with Section 7.7 of the Collaboration Agreement, Aurinia may, at its option, immediately terminate this Agreement by giving notice to Otsuka.

14.2.2    if the termination of the Collaboration Agreement is only with respect to a particular Terminated Country(ies), Aurinia shall have the option on notice to Otsuka to make a reasonable adjustment to the Rolling Forecast and Purchase Orders outstanding and made thereafter in accordance with this Agreement to reflect the reduction in Otsuka’s demand for Product to reflect the deletion of the Terminated Country(ies) from the Otsuka Territory.
14.3    Survival; Accrued Rights
The obligations and rights of the Parties under the following provisions of this Agreement shall survive expiration or termination of this Agreement:
14.3.1    from this Agreement:

15.2    Disputes involving the Parties and CMO(s)
Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, in the event that Otsuka and Aurinia are engaged in the process set out for resolution of any Disputed Matter and Aurinia and a CMO(s) are engaged in substantially the same dispute, the Parties will cooperate and act reasonably and seek the cooperation of such CMO(s) so that such disputes can be heard together relying in the same information, evidence, arbitral or other bodies, all with a view to ensuring that the disputes are resolved on the same terms.
15.3    Exclusions from Dispute Resolution
Article 15, Dispute Resolution, of the Collaboration Agreement excludes pursuant to Section 3.4(b)(i) Manufacture (excluding Packaging by Otsuka) of Products for the Otsuka Territory, provided that Aurinia’s final decision-making authority with respect to any such Manufacturing decision shall be subject to and limited by the terms of this Agreement and the Quality Agreement(s).
