7.4

Acceptance/Rejection of Batches.

7.4.1

Promptly following Release of a Batch, Customer shall inspect such Batch and shall have the right to test such Batch to determine if it is a Failed Batch.  Customer shall notify Lonza in writing of any rejection of a Batch based on any claim that it is a Failed Batch within [Redacted] after Release, after which time all unrejected Batch(es) shall be deemed accepted.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Customer and/or its designee first discovers that any Batch is a Failed Batch and such failure would not have been readily discoverable from a reasonable testing or review of the Products (collectively, “Latent Defects”), Customer shall have the continuing right to reject the Batch, provided it notifies Lonza of the Latent Defect within [Redacted] after the discovery of the Latent Defect provided that such Latent Defect is discovered within the normal shelf-life of the Batch.

7.4.2

For any Batch rejected by Customer, Lonza shall promptly, but in any event within thirty (30) days after notice of rejection is received by Lonza, conduct and complete an initial root cause analysis to determine, or establish a plan for determining, the causes of the failure or non-conformity of the Batch.  If, pursuant to such initial analysis, Lonza reasonably determines a longer period of time is needed to complete the full root cause analysis, Lonza shall complete such full analysis within a mutually agreed timeframe.  Upon completion of such full analysis, Lonza shall provide Customer with a report detailing the root causes of such failure or non-conformity of such Batch and Lonza’s action plan to remediate all issues identified in such report.  Lonza shall give all members

of the Joint Steering Committee at least monthly reports on Lonza’s execution of any such open action plan.

7.4.3

In the event that Lonza believes that a Batch has been incorrectly rejected for failure to conform with the Specifications, [Redacted].  Lonza may, at its expense, retain and test the samples of such Batch.  In the event of a discrepancy between Customer’s and Lonza’s test results such that Lonza’s test results show no failure or non-conformity to Specifications, or there exists a dispute between the Parties over the extent to which such failure and/or non-conformity to Specifications is attributable to a given Party, the Parties shall cause an independent laboratory promptly to review records, test data and perform comparative tests and analyses on samples of the Product that allegedly fails to conform to Specifications.  Such independent laboratory shall be mutually agreed upon by the Parties.  The independent laboratory’s results shall be in writing and shall be final and binding save for manifest error.  Unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties in writing, the costs associated with such testing and review shall be borne by the Party against whom the independent laboratory rules.  The Party against whom the independent laboratory rules will be required to reimburse the other Party for shipping, storage and other similar out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the other Party in connection with such rejected Batch.

7.4.4

Lonza shall, at Customer’s sole discretion, replace or provide a full refund for any Failed Batch, [Redacted] (collectively “Lonza Responsibility”).  Replacement(s) for Failed Batches shall be made by Lonza as soon as reasonably possible (after confirmation of Lonza Responsibility if a determination of Lonza Responsibility is required).  If Customer elects to have a Failed Batch replaced, Customer shall pay for such replacement Batch and the Raw Materials used therein (and any money Customer paid towards the Failed Batch (including for Raw Materials and any Raw Material Fees) shall be credited to the cost of the replacement Batch and related Raw Materials used in the replacement Batch).  For clarity, no separate and/or additional Raw Material Fee shall be payable with respect to Raw Materials used to replace a Failed Batch that is a Lonza Responsibility and the Batch Price for a replacement of a Failed Batch shall be no greater than the Batch Price for the Failed Batch.  If any replacement Batch provided as replacement for a Failed Batch also fails to conform with the Specifications and/or was not manufactured in accordance with cGMP, the Master Batch Record and the Quality Agreement, then, at Customer’s sole discretion, Lonza shall either replace such Batch or shall refund the amounts paid by Customer for such Batch (including any amounts credited from the original Failed Batch).

7.4.5

Without limiting Clause 11.1, Customer acknowledges and agrees that its sole remedy with respect to a Failed Batch that is a Lonza Responsibility is as set forth in this Clause 7.4.5 and in furtherance thereof, Customer hereby waives all other remedies at law or in equity regarding the foregoing claims. Lonza shall not be responsible for the cost of Raw Materials or Customer Materials properly consumed in any Failed Batch except to the extent set forth in this Clause 7.4.  Upon Customer’s request, Lonza shall use commercially reasonable efforts to schedule for as soon as reasonably possible the manufacture and supply of a replacement Batch for any Failed Batch that is not a Lonza Responsibility provided that Customer shall pay for such replacement Batch and the Raw Materials used therein.

7.5

Covered Claims (or such shorter period as necessary to preserve all of the indemnitee’s rights), indemnitee may, at its election, retain full control over the such Covered Claims unless the Indemnitor executes a separate agreement with the indemnitee agreeing that it shall pay all amounts payable in connection with such Covered Claims irrespective of the limitation of liability in Clause 11.5.  The indemnitee, its employees and agents, shall reasonably cooperate, at the Indemnitor’s expense, with the Indemnitor in the investigation of any liability covered by this Clause 11.  If the indemnitee elects to control the defense of any Covered Claim as permitted herein, the Indemnitor, its employees and agents, shall reasonably cooperate, at the Indemnitor’s expense, with the indemnitee in the investigation of any liability covered by this Clause 11 with respect to such Covered Claim(s).  The failure to deliver prompt written notice to the Indemnitor of any claim, to the extent prejudicial to its ability to defend such claim, shall relieve the Indemnitor of its obligation to the indemnitee under this Clause 11 only to the extent of such prejudice.

11.4

DISCLAIMER OF CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.  EXCEPT FOR EITHER PARTY’S BREACH OF CLAUSE 12 HEREOF, IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY FOR INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS OR LOST REVENUES ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT RESULTING FROM FRAUD, GROSS NEGLIGENCE, WILLFUL BREACH OR INTENTIONAL MISCONDUCT.  THE PARTIES AGREE THAT ANY AMOUNT ORDERED TO BE PAID BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION OR AGREED TO BE PAID PURSUANT TO A SETTLEMENT TO ANY THIRD PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH ANY CLAIM INDEMNIFIED PURSUANT TO CLAUSE 11.1 AND/OR 11.2 WILL BE DEEMED A DIRECT DAMAGE NOT SUBJECT TO THE ABOVE DISCLAIMER, EVEN IF SUCH DAMAGE IS OTHERWISE CHARACTERIZED IN SUCH CLAIM.

11.5

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.  SUBJECT ALWAYS TO CLAUSE 11.4, EACH PARTY’S LIABILITY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL IN NO EVENT EXCEED, [REDACTED]; EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT RESULTING FROM: (i) SUCH PARTY’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE, WILLFUL BREACH AND/OR INTENTIONAL MISCONDUCT; (ii) SUCH PARTY’S BREACH OF CLAUSE 12 (CONFIDENTIALITY); (iii) MISUSE OF THE OTHER PARTY’S INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY; AND/OR (iv) CUSTOMER’S OBLIGATION TO PAY FOR SERVICES PURSUANT TO CLAUSE 8.

Confidentiality

12.1

Confidentiality Obligations.  A Party receiving Confidential Information (the “Receiving Party”) agrees to strictly keep secret any and all Confidential Information received during the Term from and/or on behalf of the other Party (the “Disclosing Party”) using at least the same level of measures as it uses to protect its own Confidential Information, but in any case at least commercially reasonable and customary efforts.  Confidential Information shall include information disclosed in any form including in writing, orally, graphically and/or in electronic and/or other form to the Receiving Party, observed by the Receiving Party and/or its employees, agents, consultants, and/or representatives, and/or otherwise learned by the Receiving Party under this Agreement, which the Receiving Party knows and/or reasonably should know is confidential and/or proprietary.

12.2

Required Disclosures.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Receiving Party may disclose to any courts and/or other authorities Confidential Information which is and/or will be required pursuant to applicable governmental and/or administrative and/or public law, rule, regulation and/or order.  In such case the Party that received the Confidential Information will, to the extent legally permitted, inform the other Party promptly in writing and cooperate with the Disclosing Party in seeking to minimize the extent of Confidential Information which is required to be disclosed to the courts and/or authorities.

12.3

Exceptions.  The obligation to maintain confidentiality under this Agreement does not apply to Confidential Information, which:

12.3.1

at the time of disclosure was publicly available;

12.3.2

is and/or becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Agreement by the Receiving Party;

12.3.3

as the Receiving Party can establish by competent proof, was rightfully in its possession at the time of disclosure by the Disclosing Party without obligation of confidentiality and had not been received from and/or on behalf of Disclosing Party;  

12.3.4

is supplied to a Party without obligation of confidentiality by a Third Party which was not in breach of an obligation of confidentiality to Disclosing Party and/or any other Third Party; and/or

12.3.5

is developed by the Receiving Party independently from and without use of the Confidential Information, as evidenced by contemporaneous written records.

12.4

Use and Return of Confidential Information.  The Receiving Party will use Confidential Information only for the purposes of this Agreement and/or as otherwise permitted by this Agreement and will not make any use of the Confidential Information for its own separate benefit and/or the benefit of any Third Party including with respect to research and/or product development and/or any reverse engineering and/or similar testing; provided that Customer may test any materials provided by Lonza including Product and Cell Lines as necessary for Customer’s quality assurance, quality control or compliance with Applicable Laws.  The Receiving Party agrees to return and/or destroy promptly (and certify such destruction) on Disclosing Party’s request all written and/or tangible Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party, except that one copy of such Confidential Information may be kept by the Receiving Party in its confidential files for record keeping purposes only.

12.5

Disclosure to Representatives.  Each Party will restrict the disclosure of Confidential Information to such officers, employees, professional advisers, finance-providers, consultants, and representatives of itself and its Affiliates (and/or in the case of Customer, any Third Party it transfers the Process to in accordance with this Agreement) who have been informed of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information and who have a need to know such Confidential Information for the purpose of this Agreement and/or an applicable financing and/or acquisition.  Customer may disclose Confidential Information of Lonza and its Affiliates to potential and actual acquirers provided such disclosure is limited to the terms of this Agreement and/or work product provided to Customer by Lonza as a consequence of the provision of the Services.  Prior to disclosure to such persons, the Receiving Party shall bind its and its Affiliates’ officers, employees, consultants, potential and actual acquirers and representatives to confidentiality and non-use obligations no less stringent than those

set forth herein.  The Receiving Party shall notify the Disclosing Party as promptly as practicable of any unauthorized use and/or disclosure of the Confidential Information.

12.6

Responsibility for Representatives.  The Receiving Party shall at all times be fully liable for any and all breaches of the confidentiality obligations in this Clause 12.6 by any of its Affiliates and/or the employees, consultants and representatives of itself and/or its Affiliates.

12.7

Equitable Relief.  Each Party hereto expressly agrees that any breach and/or threatened breach of the undertakings of confidentiality provided under this Clause 12 by a Party may cause irreparable harm to the other Party and that monetary damages may not provide a sufficient remedy to the non-breaching Party for any breach and/or threatened breach.  In the event of any breach and/or threatened breach, then, in addition to all other remedies available at law and/or in equity, the non-breaching Party shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief and any other relief deemed appropriate by the non-breaching Party.
