Periodically during the term of this Agreement, the Provider will provide to the Company contact information and reasonable protocols to be followed in order to schedule performance of the Services.   2.3.

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in Annex A attached hereto.

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the Owner desires to have the Servicer to master service the Serviced Assets, to perform certain of the duties of the Owner, and to provide such additional services consistent with the terms of this Agreement and the Loan Documents as the Owner may from time to time request; and

WHEREAS, the Servicer has the capacity to provide the respective services required hereby and is willing to perform such services for the Owner on the terms set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

Section 1. Servicing Duties of the Servicer.

(a) The Owner authorizes Curo Management, LLC, to act, and Curo Management, LLC, agrees to act, as an independent contractor, as the Servicer effective upon the date hereof.

(b) From and after the date on which a Receivable or Participation Interest, as applicable, is sold to the Owner, the Servicer shall service and administer each related Serviced Asset for the benefit of the Owner and shall extend, amend or otherwise modify such Serviced Asset, by complying in all material respects with the following (collectively, the Servicing Standard): (A) reasonable care, using that degree of skill and attention that the Servicer exercises with respect to comparable receivables that it services for itself or others, and (B) Applicable Law.

(c) The Servicer shall have full power and authority, acting alone or through any party properly designated by it hereunder,





including any Sub-Servicer, to do any and all things in connection with such servicing and administration which it may deem necessary or desirable, consistent with the terms of this Servicing Agreement and the Servicing Standard. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, unless such power is revoked by the Owner on account of the occurrence of a Servicer Default, the Servicer shall have full power and authority (i) to make withdrawals from the applicable servicer collection account permitted by the terms of this Servicing Agreement, the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document and (ii) to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Owner, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Receivables and, after the delinquency of any Receivable and to the extent permitted under and in compliance with applicable Servicing Standard and the Loan Agreement, to commence collection proceedings with respect to such Receivables. The Owner shall furnish the Servicer with any documents reasonably requested by the Servicer, including powers of attorney, as necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer (or any Sub-Servicer on its behalf) to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder.

(d) The Servicer shall collect and process all collections on the Serviced Assets in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in Section 2.3 of the Loan Agreement and the Servicing Multi-Party Agreement.

Section 2. Administrative Duties of the Servicer.

(a) The Servicer agrees to perform all of the duties assigned to it in the Loan Agreement, and shall take all appropriate action with respect to the following matters under the Loan Agreement:

(i) upon written request of the Owner, executing and delivering such further instruments and do further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purpose of the Loan Agreement;

(ii) preparing officer's certificates with respect to the Loan Agreement;

(iii) preparing, executing and filing any reports or other information which are required to be prepared or filed by the Owner in order to comply with federal, state or foreign securities laws, or exemptions thereunder; and

(iv) any other duties expressly required to be performed by the Servicer under the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(b) In carrying out the foregoing duties or any of its other obligations under this Agreement, the Servicer may enter into transactions with or otherwise deal with any of its Affiliates; provided, however, that the terms of any such transactions or dealings shall be no less favorable to the Owner than would be available from unaffiliated parties, that Owner shall have no responsibility or liability for any fees payable to such Affiliates to perform such obligations as contemplated by this Agreement and that the Owner shall not be deemed pursuant to this Section 2(b) to enter into any contractual obligations with such Affiliates.

(c) To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Owner shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Servicer and its successors, assigns, directors, officers, agents, employees and servants (collectively, the Servicer Indemnified Parties) from and against, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, taxes, claims, actions and suits, and any and all reasonable out-of-pocket costs, expenses and disbursements (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) of any kind and nature whatsoever (collectively, Liabilities) which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Servicer or any Servicer Indemnified Party in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Serviced Assets or any action or inaction of the Owner or any other Person; provided, that the Owner shall not be liable for or required to indemnify a Servicer Indemnified Party from and against expenses arising or resulting from such Servicer Indemnified Party's own willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence. The indemnities contained in this Section 2(c) shall survive the resignation and removal of the Servicer or the termination of this Agreement.

(d) Subject to Sections 4 and 5, the Servicer shall administer, perform or supervise the performance of such other activities in connection with the Serviced Assets (including the Loan Documents) as are not covered by any of the foregoing provisions and are reasonably within the capability of the Servicer. In no case may Servicer use any identifiable information, including consumers' nonpublic personal information and related account performance and status information, for any purpose other than as provided in this Agreement; provided, however, that Servicer is permitted to use nonidentifiable, aggregated consumer information obtained in connection with its activities undertaken pursuant to this Agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Servicer shall not be obligated to, and shall not, take any action that the Owner directs the Servicer not to take or which could reasonably be expected to result in a violation or breach of the Owner's covenants, agreements or obligations under any of the Loan Documents.

(f) The Servicer shall maintain appropriate books of account and records relating to services performed hereunder, which books of account and records shall be accessible for inspection by the Owner at any time during normal business hours.

Section 3. Reports and Information.





(a) At the times and in the manner required by Section 6.1 of the Loan Agreement, the Servicer shall deliver to the Owner and the Agent the reports described therein.

(b) The Servicer shall furnish in writing to the Owner and the Agent from time to time such additional information regarding the Serviced Assets as the Owner or the Agent shall reasonably request.

Unless expressly authorized by the Owner in this Agreement or otherwise, the Servicer shall have no authority to act for or represent the Owner in any way and shall not otherwise be deemed an agent of the Owner.

Section 5. No Joint Venture. Nothing contained in this Agreement (i) shall constitute the Servicer and the Owner as members of any partnership, joint venture, association, syndicate, unincorporated business or other separate entity, (ii) shall be construed to impose any liability as such on any of them or (iii) shall be deemed to confer on any of them any express, implied or apparent authority to incur any obligation or liability on behalf of the others.

Section 6. Other Activities of Servicer. Nothing herein shall prevent the Servicer or its respective Affiliates from engaging in other businesses or, in its sole discretion, from acting in a similar capacity for any other person or entity even though such person or entity may engage in business activities similar to those of the Owner.

(b) Subject to Section 7(d), the Servicer may resign its duties hereunder by providing the Owner with at least 60 days' prior written notice.

(c) Subject to Section 7(d), and subject to the prior written consent of the Agent so long as the Loan Agreement remains outstanding, the Owner may remove the Servicer immediately upon written notice of termination from the Owner to the Servicer if any of the following events shall occur (each, a Servicer Termination Right - Owner):

(i) the Servicer shall default in the performance of any of its duties under this Agreement and, after notice of such default, shall not cure such default within 30 days (or, if such default cannot be cured in such time, shall not give within 30 days such assurance of cure as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Owner); or

(ii) the Servicer files or consents to the filing of any petition, either voluntary or involuntary, to take advantage of any applicable insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization statute, or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors; or

(iii) the Servicer fails to maintain, in any material respect, all necessary licenses and approvals in each jurisdiction in which it is performing the primary servicing function for any of the Serviced Assets under this Agreement.

The Servicer agrees that if any of the events specified in clause (ii) of this Section 7(c) shall occur, it shall give written notice thereof to the Owner within seven (7) days after the occurrence of such event.

(d) No termination, resignation or removal of the Servicer pursuant to this Section shall be effective until (i) a successor Servicer shall have been appointed by or on behalf of the Owner with the prior written consent of the Agent so long as the Loan Agreement remains outstanding, and (ii) such successor Servicer shall have agreed in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement in the same manner as the Servicer is bound hereunder.

(e) Agent may terminate this Agreement upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement by delivery of written notice of termination from Agent to Owner and Servicer (a Servicer Termination Right - Agent and, together with the Servicer Termination Right - Owner, each a Servicer Termination Right):

If a successor Servicer does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Servicer resigns or is removed, the resigning or removed Servicer or the Owner may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Servicer.

In the event that the Servicer resigns or is terminated hereunder, the Servicer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to and shall cooperate with the Owner and take other reasonable steps requested by the Owner to assist in the orderly and efficient transfer of the administration of the Serviced Assets to the successor Servicer.

(b) The Servicer shall be entitled to terminate the subservicing of the Serviced Assets by any Sub-Servicer so appointed at any time in its sole discretion, provided, that any subservicing agreement entered into by Servicer with any such Sub-Servicer shall terminate by its terms no later than thirty (30) days after the Servicer is terminated as the servicer under this Agreement.

(c) Each Sub-Servicer shall be entitled to compensation for its services as a Sub-Servicer as agreed to by the Servicer and such Sub-Servicer provided that any sub-servicing fees payable to the Sub-Servicer in respect of its servicing activities shall be payable out of the Servicing Fee.

(d) Any subservicing arrangement that may be entered into and any other transactions or services relating to the Serviced Assets involving a Sub-Servicer in its capacity as such shall be deemed to be solely between the Sub-Servicer and the Servicer alone, and the Owner shall not be deemed party thereto and shall have no claims, rights, obligations, duties, or liabilities with respect to the Sub-Servicer in such capacity.

(e) The Owner may, from time to time, enter into Collection Agency Agreements with Collection Agents for the collection of delinquent or defaulted accounts. Any such Collection Agent shall not be deemed a Sub-Servicer hereunder and the Servicer shall have no liability with respect to the acts or omissions of any such Collection Agent. Any Collection Fees shall be paid directly by the Owner in accordance with the Loan Agreement.

[*] = CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY BRACKETS, HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO RULE 24B-2 OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934, AS AMENDED. EXHIBIT 10.2 FIRST AMENDMENT TO SUPPLY AND MANUFACTURING AGREEMENT This First Amendment (Amendment) to the Supply and Manufacturing Agreement dated April 1, 2017 between Cerus Corporation (Cerus) and Porex Corporation (Porex) (the Agreement) is made this 22 day of June 2018. RECITALS A. Cerus and Porex have agreed to make certain changes to the raw material and process to develop Components and such changes have resulted in a change to the cost and expense structure originally contemplated by the Agreement; B. Pursuant to Section 3 of the Agreement, Cerus and Porex have mutually agreed to temporarily modify the pricing for Platelet Wafers set forth on Exhibit D and to proactively set a cost structure for non-production related work. NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged and accepted, the parties hereby agree to amend the Agreement as follows: 1. New Exhibits AA-1, AA-2, AA-3 and AA-4, as set forth in Schedule 1 to this Amendment, shall be attached to the Agreement (inserted between Exhibit A-5 and Exhibit B-1) and incorporated therein by reference. The parties acknowledge and agree that Exhibits AA-1, AA-2, AA-3 and AA-4 set forth the revised specifications for Platelet Wafers manufactured by Porex for Cerus (collectively, the Revised Wafer Specifications). Unless otherwise agreed in writing, Porex shall continue to manufacture and produce Platelet Wafers using the existing specifications for Platelet Wafers until Cerus gives written notice to Porex that Platelet Wafers shall be thereafter manufactured in accordance with the Revised Wafer Specifications. References in the Agreement to Specifications shall be interpreted to include the Revised Wafer Specifications, as applicable. 2. A new Exhibit D-1, as set forth in Schedule 2 to this Amendment, shall be attached to the Agreement and incorporated therein by reference. As of April 1, 2018 and continuing until Cerus determines, in its sole discretion, that the Protocol EPP-029-886 under which Porex is currently operating can be discontinued, the price for Platelet Wafers shall be the prices set forth in Exhibit D-1. Upon Cerus' determination that the Protocol EPP-029- 886 can be discontinued, Cerus shall provide written notice thereof to Porex, along with a new purchase order for Platelet Wafers (the New Pricing PO). On and after the date of such notice, the Pricing table for Platelet Wafers in Exhibit D, as of the date immediately preceding the date of this Amendment, shall be reinstated and apply to Platelet Wafers that are produced pursuant to the New Pricing PO and were also produced after the date of the written notice. References in Section 1.5.1 of the Agreement to Exhibit D shall be amended to include Exhibit D-1, as applicable. 3. The penultimate sentence in Section 1.3 shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: In no event shall any Purchase Order: require delivery of more than [*] units of [*] and [*] units of [*] in any [*] (the Porex Capacity Limitations). 4. A new Section 1.5.3 shall be added to the Agreement as follows:





1.5.3 Porex will invoice Cerus monthly for Services performed by Porex during the prior month. Unless otherwise expressly provided in the applicable Statement of Work payment to Porex of undisputed fees shall be due [*] days following Cerus' receipt of the invoice submitted by Porex. Payment information, including Tax Identification Number will be included on each invoice.

Cerus shall have the right to accept or reject the Services, or any portion thereof, in writing within [*] days from Porex's completion of the Services. Such acceptance or rejection shall be consistent with the criteria set forth in the Statement of Work, if any. If Cerus does not reject in writing within [*] days, the Services shall be considered accepted by Cerus. Within [*] days of any notice of rejection, Porex shall present a corrective plan of action to Cerus. Upon approval by Cerus of the corrective plan, Porex, at no additional expense to Cerus, shall then make the corrections and, where applicable, Porex shall resubmit the corrected Services to Cerus. For disputed invoices or the disputed portion of an invoice, Cerus shall use reasonable efforts to provide to Porex, in writing, within [*] days, a description of the disputed amounts. Cerus and Porex shall negotiate in a timely, good faith manner to resolve billing queries. Cerus will not have responsibility to pay for identified errors, incomplete or inaccurate items (collectively the invoice errors) which result in increases to previously invoiced amounts if the aforementioned invoice errors are communicated to Cerus later than [*] days from the original invoice date.

5. A new Section 3a shall be added to the Agreement as follows: 3a Non-Production Related Work. From time to time, Cerus may submit to Porex written work orders substantially in the form of Schedule 3 that specify development activities, engineering analysis, part, material and/or fixture design and development, or other services or activities that Cerus requests Porex to perform that are not activities or services that are necessary for the then-current manufacture and production of Components for Cerus under the Agreement (collectively, as defined in each work order, the Services). Each work order shall set forth the terms and conditions (including specifications (if applicable), delivery and performance schedules, and fees) pursuant to which Porex will perform the Services. Upon acceptance of a work order by Porex (in writing), such work order shall become a Statement of Work. If Porex begins to perform services under a work order that has not been formally agreed in writing, then Porex shall bear the costs of any expenses incurred prior to formal written agreement of the Statement of Work. Cerus hereby consents to Porex's use of the Cerus Dedicated Space and Equipment, as specified in a Statement of Work, solely as necessary to perform the Services under that Statement of Work. Such consent shall automatically terminate upon the completion of the applicable Statement of Work and is limited by the terms of the Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the Agreement and a Statement of Work, the Agreement shall control unless the Statement of Work expressly refers to the Parties' intent to alter the terms of the Agreement with respect to that Statement of Work and shall not be construed as an amendment to the terms of the Agreement. 6. A new section titled Pricing for Non-Production Related Work Orders from Cerus is added to Exhibit D as set forth in Schedule 2 attached. Such pricing, upon mutual agreement of the Parties, shall apply to any Statement of Work mutually agreed by the Parties pursuant to Section 3a. 7. No other changes are made to the Agreement, including without limitation, the original Exhibit D, and the Agreement, the Plasma Disk pricing and related information as set forth in Exhibit D remain the same. Except as amended herein, the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings as set forth in the Agreement. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have caused this First Amendment to be signed, all as of the date first written above.
