The Batch Documentation for each Batch of Product will be made available to Buyer upon request. Upon request, Manufacturer will also make available to Buyer all raw data, reports, authorizations, certificates, methodologies, Raw Material specifications, SOPs, standard Test Methods, and other documentation in the possession or under the control of Manufacturer relating to the Manufacture of each Batch of Product.

5.4 Disputes Regarding Conformity. In case of any disagreement between Buyer and Manufacturer as to whether Product conforms to the applicable Specifications, the quality assurance representatives of Buyer and Manufacturer will attempt in good faith to resolve any such disagreement and Buyer and Manufacturer will follow their respective SOPs to determine the conformity of the Product to the Specifications.

The laboratory must be of recognized standing in the industry, and consent to the appointment of such laboratory will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed by either Manufacturer or Buyer. Such laboratory will use the applicable Test Methods contained in the Master Batch Record. The determination of conformance by such laboratory with respect to all or part of such Product will be final and binding on all parties absent manifest error. The fees and expenses of the laboratory incurred in making such determination will be paid by Manufacturer, if the determination is made against Manufacturer, or by Buyer, if the determination is made against Buyer. The Parties agree that any dispute with respect to whether Product has been Manufactured in accordance with cGMP shall be subject to Section 14.12 (Governing Law and Dispute Resolution).

Each Party hereto confirms that it is not relying on any representations or warranties of the other Party except as specifically set forth herein.

14.11 Severability; Reformation. Each provision in this Agreement is independent and severable from the others, and no restriction will be rendered unenforceable because any other provision may be invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part. If the scope of any restrictive provision in this Agreement is too broad to permit enforcement to its full extent, then such restriction will be reformed to the maximum extent permitted by law.
14.12 Governing Law and Dispute Resolution.
a.Other than disputes arising under Section 5.4 (which shall be addressed as set forth in Section 5.4), the Parties shall first attempt in good faith to settle any dispute arising hereunder promptly by negotiations between representatives of Buyer and Manufacturer who have authority to settle the controversy. If the Parties are unable to resolve such dispute within [**] following the referral of the dispute to such representatives, such dispute shall be submitted to mediation using a professional mediator selected by agreement from the American Arbitration Association, the CPR Institute for Dispute Resolution or like organization, or absent agreement, through selection procedures administered by the CPR. Within a period of [**] after the request for mediation, the Parties agree to convene with the mediator, with business representatives present, for at least one session to attempt to resolve the matter. In the event that the Parties are unable to resolve the dispute through mediation, the dispute will be solely and finally settled by arbitration, which shall be conducted in New York, New York, by a single arbitrator (the “Arbitrator”) designated by the American Arbitration Association. The Parties hereby renounce all recourse to litigation and agree that the award of the Arbitrator shall be final and subject to no judicial review. The Arbitrator shall conduct the proceedings pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, as now or hereafter amended. All substantive questions of law shall be determined under the laws of the State of New York, USA (without regard to the principles of conflict of laws of such state). Judgment on the award of the Arbitrator may be entered into any court having jurisdiction over the Party against which enforcement of the award is being sought, and the Parties hereby irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of any such court for the purpose of enforcing any such award. The Arbitrator shall divide all costs (including, without limitation, fees of counsel) incurred in conducting the arbitration in his/her final award in accordance with what he/she deems just and equitable under the circumstances.
b.Rule 14 of the CPR Rules does not apply to this Agreement. All aspects of the mediation and arbitration shall be treated as confidential.
c.EACH PARTY HERETO [**].
14.13 Waiver. No waiver of any term, provision or condition of this Agreement in any one or more instances will be deemed to be or construed as a further or continuing waiver of any other term, provision or condition of this Agreement. Any such waiver, extension or amendment will be evidenced by an instrument in writing executed by an officer authorized to execute waivers, extensions or amendments.
14.14 Allocations of Risk. Each provision of this Agreement that provides for a limitation of liability, disclaimer of warranties, or exclusion of damages is to allocate the risks of this Agreement
29



between the Parties and each Party acknowledges that such allocation of risk is reflected in the pricing offered by Manufacturer to Buyer and is an essential element of the basis of the bargain between the Parties.
14.15 Compliance with Applicable Laws. In all activities undertaken pursuant to this Agreement, both Manufacturer and Buyer covenant and agree that each will in all material respects comply with all Applicable Laws, as may be in effect at the time of performance.
14.16 Government Contracting. While not known with any particularity at this time, it is understood by the parties that some aspects of this Agreement may be funded by U.S. Government funding in the future. In such event, the parties agree during the term of this Agreement to consider in good faith and not unreasonably refuse to enter into an amendment to this Agreement to include any mutually agreed upon flowdown provisions required by the Buyer’s prime contract with the U.S. Government to be included in this Agreement.
14.17 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original and all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.
14.18 Headings. This Agreement contains headings only for convenience and the headings do not constitute or form a part of this Agreement, and should not be used in the construction of this Agreement.
14.19 No Benefit to Third Parties. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement are for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and their successors and permitted assigns, and they will not be construed as conferring any rights on any other persons.
