 Exhibit 10.13 
 eResearchTechnology, Inc. 
 2012 Bonus Plan 

Set forth below is a summary of the eResearchTechnology, Inc. (“ERT” or the “Company”) 2012 Bonus Plan (the
“2012 Plan”) approved by the Compensation Committee at its meeting on February 24, 2012, which was effective January 1, 2012. 
 The purpose of the 2012 Plan is to promote the interests of the Company and its stockholders by providing employees with financial rewards upon achievement of specified business objectives, as well as
help us attract and retain employees by providing attractive compensation opportunities linked to performance results. All of our employees are eligible to participate in the 2012 Plan, subject in some cases to certain waiting periods and with the
exception that certain sales personnel participate in a separate commission incentive plan instead of the 2012 Plan. 
 Bonuses
payable under the 2012 Plan are approved by the Compensation Committee. Bonuses payable to eligible participants are based on a variety of factors, including both objective and subjective criteria. The objective criteria consist of targets for
revenue, non-GAAP net income and the revenue projected to be generated by new contracts into which we enter regardless of when we actually recognize the revenue (the “Contract Revenues”). The subjective criteria consist of individual
performance goals and objectives. The non-GAAP net income target reflects the adjustments to net income calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States that we report as part of our periodic reports on our
results of operations. 
 The revenue target at which bonus plan participants would earn 100% of the bonus opportunity
attributable to that target is slightly above the range for revenues provided as guidance for 2012 in the Company’s press release issued on February 27, 2012, while the non-GAAP net income target at which 100% would be earned is within that
guidance. The Committee intends that the plan participants earn the full bonus opportunity with respect to revenues only if the Company exceeds the revenues target set forth in its financial business plan, while earning the full bonus opportunity
provided the Company executes its plan with respect to non-GAAP net income. 
 Each participant in the 2012 Plan will be
eligible to receive 50% to 125% of their 2012 bonus opportunity that is allocable to each objective target category provided that we achieve at least 90% of the revenue target and at least 85% of the non-GAAP net income target. The actual bonus
earned will be based on the extent to which our 2012 revenues and non-GAAP net income meet thresholds established by the Committee. Amounts payable based on achievement of individual performance objectives can range from 0-100% of the applicable
bonus opportunity. 

 The bonus opportunities and the related performance targets for each of the Company’s
executive officers approved in February 2012 are as follows:

	*	 Note that
Individual Performance Goals and Objectives are not a criterion under the 2012 Bonus Plan for any of the executive officers. 

 Bonuses are payable based on the extent to which annual targets have been achieved, with the bonuses (if any) normally being paid within ninety (90) days after the end of the calendar year in which
the bonuses were earned. Bonuses normally will be paid in cash in a single lump sum, subject to payroll taxes and tax withholdings, as applicable. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Compensation Committee retains the discretion under the 2012 Plan to adjust the amount of any bonus to be paid, regardless of whether or the extent to which any of the
objective criteria, including revenue, net income and Contract Revenues, are achieved.

	 	b)	Office space with social areas, canteen and ancillary rooms and office rooms in the production area including ancillary rooms, approximately a further 6,180 m2.

  

	 	c)	200 parking spaces for cars. 

The total area let of buildings a) and b) (hereinafter also referred to as the “rented area”) is expected to amount to

	1.3	Omitted—Adjustment for discrepancy of rental area. 

  

	1.4	The tenant can demand that the rented property be extended as follows (“extension options” and “additional areas”):

any time that a new building be constructed containing either 1,002 m2 or approx 2,800 m2 or approx. 3,800 m2 additional rented area. The amount of the rent for the new building shall be determined from the rent per m2 pursuant to section 7.1 applicable at the time of the completion of the new building, taking
into account changes to the Construction Price Index determined by the Federal Statistical Office for non-residential buildings, office building department, since 01.01.2012. 

	 	b)	The tenant shall be entitled to exercise an extension option in writing such that upon exercise it shall state what size the additional areas should have. The lessor
shall be obliged to construct ready for occupation and deliver to the tenant the additional areas within 18 months following exercise of an extension option. 

 

	 	c)	If a new building is constructed pursuant to section 1.4 paragraph a), it shall be ensured that the term of the tenancy relationship for the entire areas shall be a
uniform 10 further years starting from the time of occupation of the additional area. The parties shall be obliged to sign a corresponding supplement to this tenancy contract. Renewal options according to this contract shall remain in effect and
shall refer to the property as a whole. 

  

	 	d)	In all other respects, the provisions of the present tenancy contract shall apply in full to the additional areas covered by the extension options. The inclusion of the
additional areas in the present tenancy contract shall be documented in an addendum. 

 § 2 Condition of
the rented property 
  

	2.1	The condition of the building as owed by the lessors shall be derived from the building planning documents attached as Schedules 2-6, the description of the
building attached as Schedule 7, the master time schedule attached as Schedule 8, and the operating description attached as Schedule 5. Schedules 2-6 and 7 have been prepared in coordination with the tenant and are of a
provisional nature, correspond to the current building application and can/must by agreement be amended, updated or modified in the course of the final planning and construction of the building, e.g. on the basis of official requirements or for
commercial or technical reasons. Amendments to the schedules shall only be binding if such are made with the tenant's written consent. 

  

	2.2.1	Omitted—Applicability of Exhibits.

 § 3 Purpose of rent 
  

	3.1	The tenant shall use the rented property as a production and warehouse building and as office building with canteen. The lessor guarantees that the rented property is
suitable for the intended purposes and shall at its own expense obtain any public law authorisations required. 

  

	3.2	Any modification of the purpose of use shall require the lessor's prior written consent, which will only be refused for good cause. 

§ 4 Start of tenancy and delivery 
  

	4.1	The tenancy relationship shall commence upon delivery of the rented property to the tenant. Delivery shall take place in condition ready for occupation on
1 February 2013 (“binding delivery date”). Ready for occupation shall mean the complete turnkey completion of the rented property ready for use. 

A further precondition for readiness for occupation shall be that the tenant or third parties designated by it have been instructed about
the operation and maintenance of all technical facilities of the rented property and have been given the necessary documentation (technical data of the systems and equipment, plant and function descriptions, operating, maintenance and safety
regulations, function inspection, start-up inspection and acceptance inspection records, etc). Any minor faults present at delivery and residual works that do not impair the business operations of the tenant and can be remedied without severe
impairment of the tenant shall not delay delivery and can be remedied or carried out, as the case may be, by the lessor up to 12 weeks after delivery. The concept of a fault under tenancy law shall apply to the determination of whether there is a
fault. 
  

	4.2	Delivery can be postponed by a maximum of eight weeks provided that the lessors notify the delay 90 days before the binding delivery date and guarantee in writing that
they shall assume the delay costs incurred by the tenant (“excused delay”). 

  

	4.3	In the event that the lessor fails to comply with the binding delivery date and a case of excused delay does not apply, they shall pay the tenant contractual penalty to
the amount of EUR 3,500.00 plus any applicable value added tax for each day or part thereof of the delay, without loss having to be proven, up to a maximum, however, of EUR 100,000 (words: one hundred thousand Euro) per month plus any applicable
value added tax, but for no longer than six months in total. A contractual penalty shall not be payable in the event of force majeure or if the tenant alone is responsible for the delay, e.g. if and to the extent that the delay is due exclusively to
additional times for change requests by the tenant pursuant to Section 2.5. 

	4.4	If the binding delivery date is not complied with, and if excused delay does not apply, the tenant shall be entitled to terminate the contract without notice. The right
to terminate shall, however, be forfeit if the lessors pay the monthly contractual penalty specified under Section 4.3 in full. In such event, notice of termination already issued shall cease to apply. The right to terminate shall arise again
at the start of each new month. It shall apply even if a contractual penalty is no longer payable (after expiry of six months, see Section 4.3). 

  

	4.5	Upon delivery, a joint record of delivery shall be prepared setting out the existing faults and any outstanding residual works. The lessors shall be obliged to remedy
any existing faults immediately and complete any outstanding residual work immediately. 

 The lessors undertake to
ensure that after delivery of the rented property the remedy of faults and / or any residual works shall only be carried out to a reasonable extent and taking maximum consideration of the tenant's business operations and, with respect to the office
areas, as far as possible outside the tenant's core office hours. All works shall be carried out in consultation with tenant taking into account the safety provisions applicable in its business for the rooms in question. 

 

	4.6	If a dispute should arise between the parties during delivery as to whether the rented property corresponds with the contractual agreements and is ready for occupation
within the meaning of this tenancy contract, such shall be decided by an expert. The parties shall reach mutual agreement as to the person of the expert. If agreement cannot be achieved within one week after demand by one of the parties, the
Chairman of the Committee of Experts of the City of Würzburg shall be instructed to designate an expert, to whom the two parties shall be bound. The expert shall decide on costs in accordance with the principles of Sections 91 et seq. of the
Code of Civil Procedure. 

 § 5 Term of the tenancy 

The tenancy is to be concluded for a period of twelve years (“fixed tenancy period”). The tenant shall be granted the right to renew the
fixed tenancy period three times by five years at a time (“option period”) by unilateral declaration subject to the terms of this tenancy contract as applicable at the time (“tenant's option rights”). The tenant
shall exercise the option rights at the latest 18 months before expiry of the fixed tenancy period or, as the case may be, before expiry of the relevant option tenancy period by means of a written declaration to the lessors. 

 § 6 Rescission 

 

	6.1	Landlord may rescind the lease agreement subject to obtaining financing for the construction of the property within 8 weeks from execution of the lease. There will be
no indemnification for expenses incurred by tenant. 

  

	6.2	Further, the lease may be rescinded by either party if the appropriate permits have not obtained on or prior to June 30, 2012. Tenant may also withdraw from the
lease in the two weeks following such date if the Landlord has not provided evidence of all required permits on or prior to June 30, 2012. 

 § 7 Rent and ancillary costs 
  

	7.1	The rent for the rented areas specified under Sections 1.1 a) and b) per month shall amount to a total of

shall be made up as follows in accordance with the provisional area and parking space details according to Section 1.1.

be determined. Any difference from the gross area (calculated from the total of the individual areas set out under Section 1.1) of up to + 1 or - 3.00% shall have no effect on the amount of rent. The rent, however, shall only be increased by a
maximum of 10.00%. There shall be no lower limit for the rent adjustment. Likewise, a difference in the number of car parking spaces of up to 3.00% (corresponding to six parking spaces) shall have no effect on the amount of the rent pursuant to
Section 7.2 payable for such. 
  

	7.2	The rent for the car parking spaces shall amount to a monthly total of 

 EUR 5,000.00 net 
 plus value added tax at the statutory rate,

	7.3	The tenant is an entrepreneur within the meaning of the Value Added Tax Act, and shall not use the rented property for residential or other non-entrepreneurial

does not exclude the deduction of input tax. 
  

	7.4	The tenant shall bear the ancillary costs payable for the rented property costs in accordance with Sec. 2 of the Operating Cost Regulation (BetrKV) as amended (attached

the statement of account. If the lessors are responsible for delayed settlement, the lessor shall forfeit the claim to the payment of the arrears. If the tenant vacates the property during the billing period, the distribution due at the next billing
shall in doubt be pro rata in the relation between lease period and the accounting period. Operating costs incurred after termination of the lease shall not be included in the settlement. At the written request of the tenant, the lessor shall
deliver to the tenant for examination copies of all receipts / invoices for the operating costs that can be apportioned to the tenant according to the above provisions. If the settlement by the lessor results in an increase or a reduction of the
operating costs, the advance payments for the following billing period are to increases or reduced accordingly. 

The amount of the monthly advance payment of ancillary costs shall be EUR 1.45 net plus value added tax, a total based on the
provisionally assumed rented area of 8,330 m2 hence 

 EUR 12,078.50 net 

plus value added tax at the statutory rate, currently 19%. 

In the first two years of the lease no settlement of accounts shall take place and instead the advance is paid as a
lump sum

already occurred by the time of the first publication of the new revised index figures already shall no longer be changed. The new index figures resulting from the new base, which shall always lead to rounding differences, are only to be applied "ex
