Replace Section 3.7.5 with the following:
“3.7.5    After AMICUS has determined that the PPQ Batches were successful (i.e., the process indicators and product quality are within the acceptance criteria as pre-defined in the PPQ protocol) (consent not to be unreasonably withheld), WUXI BIOLOGICS shall invoice AMICUS [***].

In Section 10.1, the Initial Term is extended by replacing “shall continue for five (5) years (“Initial Term”)” with “shall continue until December 31, 2031 (“Initial Term”)”.

Replace the last sentence in Section 11.6 Force Majeure with the following:

Replace Section 11.10 Assignability, with the following:
11.10 Change of Control and Assignment. A “Change of Control” shall mean any of the following events: (1) the acquisition of more than 50% of the voting power or ownership interest in WUXI BIOLOGICS by a Third Party (2) a merger, consolidation, or reorganization (excluding any internal reorganizations involving only WUXI BIOLOGICS and its Affiliates) involving WUXI BIOLOGICS, resulting in a transfer of control of WUXI BIOLOGICS or (3) the sale, assignment or disposition of all or substantially all of WUXI BIOLOGICS assets to a Third Party.
    
11.10.1 Change of Control in WUXI BIOLOGICS. If there is a Change of Control in one or more of the entities defined as WUXI BIOLOGICS or the parent company(ies) which own(s) said entities, then AMICUS may elect to:

(1) extend the term of the existing Binding Quarterly API Forecast up to [***] under Section 3.1.1 and extend the term of the Non-Binding Quarterly API Forecast up to [***] under Section 3.1.2;
(2) extend the Initial Term up to [***] from the expiration date of December 31, 2031 under Section 10.1; and/or
(3) require WUXI BIOLOGICS to provide [***].

11.10.2 Assignment by WUXI BIOLOGICS. Subject to Section 11.10.1, WUXI BIOLOGICS may not assign any of its rights or delegate or subcontract any of its duties and obligations under this Agreement to any Third Party except its own Affiliates without the prior written consent of AMICUS, at its discretion (not to be unreasonably withheld). Any such attempted assignment of rights or delegation or subcontracting of duties without such prior written consent of AMICUS shall be void and ineffective. If WUXI BIOLOGICS assigns any of its rights and delegates or subcontracts any of its duties and obligations under this Agreement to any of its Affiliates (such assignment, delegation or subcontracting to an Affiliate), such assignment shall not relieve WUXI BIOLOGICS of
    2


its responsibilities and liabilities hereunder and it shall remain liable to AMICUS for the conduct and performance of WUXI BIOLOGICS’ Affiliate.

11.10.3 Assignment by AMICUS. AMICUS may assign any of its rights or delegate or subcontract any of its duties and obligations under this Agreement to an Affiliate or Third Party upon advance written notice to WUXI BIOLOGICS (including but not limited to an AMICUS Affiliate submitting a Binding Forecast or Firm Order which will constitute sufficient notice); provided, however, that such assignment, delegation or subcontracting to a Third Party shall not relieve AMICUS of its responsibilities and liabilities hereunder except if a Third Party acquires all or substantially all of AMICUS’ assets related to API or Product.
