King shall supply VSI up to ** of the VSI Forecasts for the appli cable period and shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts to supply VSI with Product in excess of ** of any Forecast.

Section 2.2 Standard Potency, Variation, Deviation, and Reconciliation. King shall supply VSI with such quantity of Product as VSI shall require. The Parties acknowledge that the Product will be supplied in vials that are labeled to show that the vials contain 10,000 units and 5,000 units of Product. There are fluctuations in the actual volume of Product from lot to lot, and, for purposes of this Agreement, the Parties agree to measure, tally, and reconcile the fluctuations in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.2. The average potency for each vial labeled 10,000 units is actually ** units and the average potency for each vial labeled 5,000 units is ** units (“Standard Potency”). The Parties agree that the Standard Potency varies by an acceptable ±** (plus or minus **) from lot to lot (“Variation”). Any fluctuation beyond the Variation is a deviation (“Deviation”). To determine the Deviation, the Parties agree to use King’s standard method of measuring the Product’s potency, which is to determine, from a representative sample vial from the lot, the average potency of that lot. The average potency for that lot will be stated in King’s Certificate of Analysis in total units. Those units will then be tallied and reconciled on a bi-annual basis in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.2. King’s Certificate of Analysis will, absent manifest error, be conclusive to determine any Variation and Deviation for any related Product. In no case will Product be included for purposes of calculating a Deviation under this Section 2.2 when VSI uses such Product in the intact, unopened vial form in which it is delivered by King to VSI, by placing such intact, unopened vial, into a kit that is marketed by either King or VSI. If a Deviation is negative, King shall be responsible for the Deviation by supplying VSI with, at VSI’s election, and as applicable for the Product in question (i) Product sufficient to correct the Deviation, in the case of Product supplied under a King Device Forecast, or (ii) a credit for the Deviation, in the case of Product supplied under a VSI Device Forecast, or (iii) a refund of any Purchase Price overpaid that is equal to the value of the Deviation, in the case of Product supplied under a VSI Device Forecast. If the Deviation is positive and relates to Product supplied under a King Device Forecast, VSI shall use the Deviation exclusively for its manufacture and supply to King of Devices under the Device Supply Agreement. If the Deviation is positive and relates to Product supplied under a VSI Device Forecast, VSI shall pay King the VSI Device Purchase Price for the amount of such Deviation.

Section 2.3 Purchase Price. King will provide Product to VSI in accordance with VSI Device Forecasts at the price set forth in Exhibit C (the “Purchase Price”). The Purchase Price shall be fixed for the Term, and subject only to the adjustments applied in accordance with Section 2.2, Section 2.8(b), Section 6.4(c), or for annual inflation, and in the case of an annual inflation adjustment, such adjustment shall not exceed a maximum annual increase of three percent (3%), based on the change in the PPI for the preceding year. Product supplied to VSI in accordance with King Device Forecasts shall be supplied to VSI free of charge.

Section 2.4 Invoicing, Payment, Currency. King shall promptly invoice VSI for all quantities of Product delivered in accordance with any VSI Device Forecasts as well as with respect to any other payment hereunder. King shall issue no invoices for Products delivered in accordance with any King Device Forecasts. Payment with respect to such Product delivered shall be due thirty (30) days after receipt by VSI of the invoice with respect thereto; provided that if VSI rejects such Product pursuant to Section 4.1, then payment shall be due within thirty (30) days after receipt by King of notice from the Testing Laboratory that the invoiced Product is conforming or, subject to Section 4.4, receipt by King of replacement Product, as the case may be. All other payments shall be made thirty (30) days after receipt of an invoice for the same. In all cases, if VSI disputes any portion of an invoice, it shall pay the undisputed portion and shall provide King with written notice of the disputed portion and its reasons therefore, and VSI shall not be obligated to pay such disputed portion. The Parties shall use good faith efforts to resolve any such disputes promptly. In the event of any inconsistency between an invoice and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

(c) Disputes. If the Parties disagree as to which Party is responsible, King and VSI representatives shall attempt to resolve such dispute. If the representatives cannot resolve such dispute, the samples of the relevant Product shall be jointly submitted by King and VSI to a Testing Laboratory and the test results obtained by such laboratory shall be final and controlling. The fees and expenses of the Testing Laboratory testing shall be borne entirely by the Party whose analysis was in error.

(d) Recalls. Each Party shall promptly (but in any case, not later than forty-eight (48) hours) notify the other Party in writing of any decision, order, request or directive of a Governmental Authority to recall, withdraw or field correct the King Supplied Product or the VSI Modified Product, as the case may be. King shall promptly (but in any case, not later than forty-eight (48) hours) notify VSI of any voluntary decision to recall, withdraw or field correct King Supplied Product and King shall be solely responsible for determining whether to issue a recall, withdrawal, or field correction for King Supplied Product (but shall comply with all Applicable Laws in making such determination) and for the cost and expense of any such recall, withdrawal or field correction; provided, that each such responsible Party shall give due consideration to all comments timely made by the other Party relating to testing of the relevant Product and shall notify the other Party in writing if the responsible Party declines to address any such comments, stating the reason therefor. If any recall, market withdrawal or field correction is not due to King’s Manufacture of the Product, then King shall be relieved of King’s obligations to supply the Product until the cause of such recall, withdrawal or field correction has been resolved to the satisfaction of the Parties and the applicable Governmental Authority.

(e) Costs of Recall. In the event that King is required to recall, withdraw, or undertake a field correction of any King Supplied Product in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.3(e), in such event, King shall bear the actual cost of conducting such action or withdrawal, including costs imposed by the applicable Governmental Authority(ies) such as costs for detention and inspection, in accordance with the recall guidelines of the applicable Governmental Authority(ies) or standard U.S. medical device industry practices; and, at the sole election of VSI, King shall either:

(i) in the case of Product supplied under a King Device Forecast or a VSI Device Forecast, supply Product, without charge to VSI, in an amount sufficient to replace the amount of the Product recalled, withdrawn, or subjected to field correction; or

(ii) in the case of Product supplied under a VSI Device Forecast, refund to VSI, or give credit to VSI against outstanding receivables due from VSI against the VSI Device Purchase Price for shipments of the Product to be delivered to VSI in the future, in amounts equal to the VSI Device Purchase Price paid by VSI to King for Product so recalled, withdrawn, or subjected to field correction, plus the reasonable transportation costs incurred by VSI and not recovered by VSI in respect of such Product recalled, withdrawn, or subjected to field correction.

(f) Government Inquiries. If either Party shall be contacted by any Governmental Authority for any regulatory purpose pertaining specifically to this Agreement or to the Product, such Party shall immediately notify the other Party. Either Party may permit unannounced inspections of the Product or its Facility by a Governmental Authority with competent jurisdiction and may respond to the extent necessary to comply with such Party’s obligations under Applicable Law.

(g) Medical Inquiries. King shall handle all medical inquiries concerning the Product in the Territory. King shall notify VSI of any medical information requests or medical inquiries involving any VSI Modified Product.

Section 3.4 Letter of Reference. At King’s expense, King shall provide VSI with reasonable assistance to support its filings and submissions with Governmental Authorities with respect to the Devices, and to this end, upon VSI’s written request, King shall promptly provide a letter of authorization to the relevant Governmental Authority allowing such Governmental Authority to review King’s biologics license application relating to the Product and to reference that application and the data therein in its consideration and evaluation of VSI’s filings and submissions, which letter shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D. Accompanying such request to King, VSI shall also provide King with a copy of any proposed filing or submission with any Governmental Authority with respect to the Devices that include any information relating to King, including information from King’s quality assurance standard operating procedures. VSI must receive King’s consent (which King may withhold in its discretion) with respect to such filing or submission before VSI may file or submit the same with such Governmental Authority. All of King’s proprietary information with respect to the Product shall be subject to reasonable protection and VSI shall comply with King’s rules and procedures with respect thereto. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall require King to provide VSI with any information pertaining to King’s batch records for the Product or with any information pertaining to the proprietary processes utilized in manufacturing the Product, all such information being deemed King’s trade secrets.

Section 3.5 Audit by VSI. VSI and its designated representatives shall have the right, upon reasonable notice, to audit records of King for the purpose of determining King’s compliance with the obligations set forth in Section 5.2, the terms of this Agreement, and any Firm Order or Confirmed Firm Order. This right to audit shall be subject always to the provisions of Section 3.4 concerning King’s trade secrets and their protection. This right to audit shall extend throughout the Term of this Agreement and for one (1) year after expiration or termination of this Agreement.

Section 3.6

Maintenance of Facility.

(a) King shall maintain the Facility where it Manufactures the Product, Materials and such related equipment in a state of repair and operating efficiency consistent with the requirements of the Specifications, the Regulatory Approvals, cGMP and all other Applicable Laws.

(b) King may Manufacture Product at an alternate facility in King’s sole discretion and subject to approval of the applicable Regulatory Authorities, provided that King shall bear all costs of transferring the Manufacture of Product to such alternate facility.

Section 3.7 Additional Information. Subject always to the provisions of Section 3.4 concerning King’s trade secrets and their protection, each Party shall provide to the other in a timely manner, but in no event less than sixty (60) days prior to the due date of such Party’s annual report to the FDA or any other Governmental Authority with respect to the Product, all information in written form that such Party requests regarding the Product in order to comply with Applicable Laws.

Section 3.8 Manufacturing Records. King shall maintain, or cause to be maintained, (i) all records necessary to comply with cGMP and all other Applicable Law relating to the Manufacture of Product, and (ii) all manufacturing records, standard operating procedures, validation records, equipment log books, batch records, laboratory notebooks and all raw data relating to the manufacturing of Product and all records relating to the shipment of the Product. All such material shall be retained for such period as may be required by cGMP and all other Applicable Law.

ARTICLE IV.

INSPECTION OF PRODUCT

Section 4.1 Inspection by VSI. Within thirty (30) days after delivery of Product to the destination specified by VSI, VSI shall visually inspect such Product in accordance with its customary procedures. VSI shall advise King in writing if it is rejecting a shipment due to obvious physical damage, obvious packaging defect or quantity discrepancies that are evident upon such visual inspection of the packaged Product as shipped by King. VSI shall have no obligation to inspect the Product beyond the visual inspection provided for in this Section 4.1. If a visual inspection reveals evidence of defects in the Product, or VSI or its designee determines that the Product does not conform to the Specifications (“Un-Acceptable Product”), VSI shall notify King in writing within the thirty (30)-day period after such inspection to identify the Product or portion thereof which VSI will return because such Product is Un-Acceptable Product. VSI’s failure to deliver such notice to King shall not relieve King of its obligation to supply Product in compliance with this Agreement.

Section 4.2 Investigation by King. King shall undertake reasonably appropriate investigation regarding all alleged Un-Acceptable Product and shall notify VSI whether it has confirmed such alleged non-conformity within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice from VSI.

Section 4.3 Disputes over Product. If King, after good faith consultation with VSI, disputes any finding by VSI that the Product is Un-Acceptable Product, then representative samples of such Product shall be forwarded for analysis to an independent testing laboratory or other appropriate expert mutually acceptable to the parties (the “Testing Laboratory”) for

evaluation, which analysis shall be performed in compliance with applicable FDA regulations and with reference to the Specifications. The parties shall cooperate with the Testing Laboratory’s reasonable requests for assistance in connection with its evaluation hereunder. The findings of the Testing Laboratory regarding whether the Product was Un-Acceptable Product, absent manifest error, shall be binding upon the parties. The expenses of the Testing Laboratory shall be borne by King if the testing confirms the nonconformity and otherwise by VSI.

Section 4.4 Replacement of Product that is Un-Acceptable Product. If the Testing Laboratory or King confirms that any Product is Un-Acceptable Product, King promptly shall, at King’s cost and expense, including shipping costs and at VSI’s option: (i) with respect to Product supplied to VSI under a King Device Forecast or a VSI Device Forecast, supply VSI with a conforming quantity of Product at King’s expense (if there is a limited supply of Product available to replace Un-Acceptable Product, then King shall ship to VSI such quantities of conforming Product as are available and, for Product supplied under a VSI Device Forecast, shall promptly reimburse VSI for amounts paid for the remaining quantity of such Un-Acceptable Product) or (ii) with respect to Product supplied to VSI under a VSI Device Forecast, reimburse VSI the VSI Device Purchase Price paid by VSI with respect to such Un-Acceptable Product, if already paid. In addition, King promptly shall reimburse VSI for all reasonable costs incurred by VSI with respect to such Un-Acceptable Product, including costs of recalls, market withdrawals, returns and destruction, which costs VSI shall have the right to offset against any payments owed by VSI to King under this Agreement. King may only rework Un-Acceptable Product if there is a validated and FDA-approved process to rework the shipment or lot and VSI agrees in advance to the reworking of Un-Acceptable Product. King shall instruct VSI as to the disposition of any Product ordered or portion thereof determined to be Un-Acceptable Product. At the sole option of King, said Un-Acceptable Product may be returned to King, at King’s expense, including shipping costs, or destroyed in an environmentally acceptable manner, in accordance with Applicable Laws, at King’s expense.

INDEMNIFICATION; INSURANCE; LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY

Section 7.1 Indemnification by King. King shall indemnify VSI, its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (the “VSI Indemnified Parties”), and defend and save each of them harmless, from and against any and all third party claims, lawsuits, losses, damages, liabilities, penalties, royalties, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) (collectively, “Losses”) incurred by any of them in connection with, arising from or occurring as a result of: (i) the breach by King of any of its obligations under this Agreement; (ii) the breach, inaccuracy or rendering inaccurate of any representation or warranty made by King in this Agreement; (iii) allegations that the Manufacture and supply of Product (in the vial form at the time of delivery of Product to VSI) in accordance with the terms hereof infringes or misappropriates the patent, trademark or other intellectual property rights of a third party; and (iv) any gross negligence or willful misconduct by King in Manufacturing Product.

Section 7.2 Indemnification by VSI. VSI shall indemnify King, its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (the “King Indemnified Parties”), and defend and save each of them harmless, from and against any and all Losses incurred by any of them in connection with, arising from or occurring as a result of: (i) the breach by VSI of any of its obligations under this Agreement, (ii) the breach, inaccuracy or rendering inaccurate of any representation or warranty made by VSI in this Agreement, (iii) any gross negligence or willful misconduct by VSI or its Affiliates; and (iv) in the case of this sub-paragraph (iv), to the extent such are not Losses covered by Section 7.1, (A) the manufacture and sale of the products and devices outside the Field by VSI or its sublicensees or manufacturers using any Product supplied to VSI hereunder, and (B) the manufacture and/or other activities undertaken to further process, change, or remove from the vial form, any VSI Modified Product supplied to VSI hereunder by King.

Section 7.3.

Procedures.

(a) Notice of Claim. The indemnified Party (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give the indemnifying Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) prompt written notice (an “Indemnification Claim Notice”) of any Losses or discovery of facts upon which such Indemnified Party intends to base a request for indemnification under Section 7.1 or Section 7.2, but in no event shall the Indemnifying Party be liable for any Losses that result from any delay in providing such notice except to the extent that such failure to give notice materially prejudices the Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend such claim. Each Indemnification Claim Notice must contain a description of the claim and the nature and amount of such Loss (to the extent that the nature and amount of such Loss are known at such time). The Indemnified Party shall furnish promptly to the Indemnifying Party copies of all papers and official documents received in respect of any Losses.

(b) Control of Defense. At its option, the Indemnifying Party may assume the defense of any Losses by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days after the Indemnifying Party’s receipt of an Indemnification Claim Notice. The assumption of the defense of a Loss by the Indemnifying Party shall not be construed as an acknowledgment that the Indemnifying Party is liable to indemnify any Indemnified Party in respect of the Loss, nor shall it constitute a waiver by the Indemnifying Party of any defenses it may assert against any Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification. Upon assuming the defense of a Loss, the Indemnifying Party may appoint as lead counsel in the defense of the Loss any legal counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party. In the event the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Loss, the Indemnified Party shall immediately deliver to the Indemnifying Party all original notices and documents (including court papers) received by any Indemnified Party in connection with the Loss. Subject to clause (c) below, if the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Loss, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the analysis, defense or settlement of the Loss. In the event that it is ultimately determined that the Indemnifying Party is not obligated to indemnify, defend or hold harmless an Indemnified Party from and against the Loss, the Indemnified Party shall reimburse the Indemnifying Party for any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of suit) incurred by the Indemnifying Party in its defense of the Loss with respect to such Indemnified Party.

(c) Right to Participate in Defense. Without limiting Section 7.3(b), any Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in, but not control, the defense of any Loss and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose; provided, however, that such employment shall be at the Indemnified Party’s own expense unless (A) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Indemnifying Party in writing, (B) the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense and employ counsel in accordance with Section 7.3(b) (in which case the Indemnified Party shall control the defense), or (C) the interests of the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Loss are sufficiently adverse to prohibit the representation by the same counsel of both Parties under Applicable Law, ethical rules or equitable principles.

(d) Settlement. With respect to any Losses relating solely to the payment of money damages and that will not result in the Indemnified Party’s becoming subject to injunctive or other relief or otherwise adversely affect the business of the Indemnified Party in any manner, and as to which the Indemnifying Party shall have acknowledged in writing the obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party hereunder, the Indemnifying Party shall have the sole right to consent to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Loss, on such terms as the Indemnifying Party, in its sole discretion, shall deem appropriate. With respect to all other Losses, where the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of the Loss, the Indemnifying Party shall have authority to consent to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Loss; provided that it obtains the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement or other disposition of a Loss by an Indemnified Party that is reached without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party. Regardless of whether the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Loss, no Indemnified Party shall admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or dispose of, any Loss without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(e) Cooperation. If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Loss, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof and shall furnish such records, information and testimony, provide such witnesses and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith. Such cooperation shall include access during normal business hours afforded to the Indemnifying Party to, and reasonable retention by the Indemnified Party of, records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Loss, and making employees and agents available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder, and the Indemnifying Party sh all reimburse the Indemnified Party for all its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith.

(f) Expenses. Except as provided above, the reasonable and verifiable costs and expenses, including fees and disbursements of counsel, incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with any Loss shall be reimbursed on a calendar quarter basis in arrears by the Indemnifying Party, without prejudice to the Indemnifying Party’s right to contest the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification and subject to refund in the event the Indemnifying Party is ultimately held not to be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party.

Section 7.4 Insurance. Each Party shall maintain insurance (either through purchase of a policy from a nationally recognized third party insurer or through maintenance of a self-insurance program) against such risks and upon such terms (including coverages, deductible limits and self-insured retentions) as is customary for the activities to be conducted by such Party under this Agreement and is appropriate to cover its indemnification obligations hereunder. Each Party shall name the other as an additional insured on such Party’s relevant insurance policies, as its interests may appear, and shall furnish to the other Party evidence of such insurance, upon request. Additionally, at all times while this Agreement is in effect, and for such period of time thereafter as the expiration date of the last quantities of Product delivered to King hereunder has not been reached, each Party shall procure and maintain commercial general liability insurance (including products liability coverage) with a bodily injury, death and property damage combined single limit of not less than USD$** per occurrence and in the aggregate.

Section 7.5 Limitation on Damages. IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR FOR ANY INDIRECT DAMAGES, WHETHER OR NOT FORESEEABLE AND EVEN IF IT HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE; EXCEPT THAT, THE FOREGOING LIMITATION OF LIABILITY SHALL NOT APPLY TO DAMAGES RESULTING FROM A PARTY’S (i) INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER OR (ii) BREACH OF ITS CONFIDENTIALITY OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER.

Section 7.6 Offset. If any matter as to which VSI may be able to assert a claim is pending or unresolved at the time any payment is due from VSI to King under this Agreement or otherwise, VSI will be entitled to offset, deduct, counterclaim or otherwise withhold from such payment due to King any amount with respect to any pending or unresolved claims whether or not such claims arise out of or relate to this Agreement or any other matter.

Section 8.3 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Other Agreements constitute the entire agreement and understanding between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements or understandings of the Parties and merges all prior discussions and negotiations between them relating thereto. Neither of the Parties shall be bound by any conditions, definitions, warranties, understandings or representations with respect to such subject matter other than as expressly provided herein or as duly set forth on or subsequent to the date hereof in writing and signed by a proper and duly authorized officer or representative of the Party to be bound thereby. To the extent that any inconsistencies exist between this Agreement and the Thrombin-JMI® Quality Agreement, this Agreement shall control. Neither Party has relied upon any communications, representations, terms or promises, verbal or written, not set forth herein.

Section 8.4 Waiver; Remedies. No delay on the part of VSI or King in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any waiver on the part of either VSI or King of any right, power or privilege hereunder operate as a waiver of any other right, power or privilege hereunder nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder. All rights, remedies, undertakings, obligations and agreements contained in this Agreement shall be cumulative and none of them shall be in limitation of any other remedy, right, undertaking, obligation or agreement of either Party.

Section 8.5 Amendment. This Agreement may not be amended, modified, altered or supplemented except by a writing signed by both Parties.

Section 8.7 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Except as expressly provided herein in relation to subcontracting, neither VSI nor King may assign any of its rights, duties or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, that either Party may assign this Agreement to an Affiliate without such consent; provided such Affiliate agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement; and provided, further, that the assigning Party shall not be released from its obligations hereunder. Any purported assignment without a required consent shall be void. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each Party may assign its rights under this Agreement as security to one or more financial institutions providing financing to the assigning Party and/or its Affiliates.

Section 8.8 Fees and Expenses. Regardless of whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated, except as may be otherwise specified herein, each Party shall bear its own fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 8.9 Governing Law; Venue. This Agreement shall be construed under and governed in all respects by the laws of the State of New York without regard to the application of principles of conflicts of laws. The Parties agree that any dispute arising out of this Agreement shall be brought before a court of competent jurisdiction in the State of New York and each Party consents to the jurisdiction and venue of such court.

Section 8.10 Further Assurances. Each of the Parties agrees to duly execute and deliver, or cause to be duly executed and delivered, such further instruments and do and cause to be done such further acts and things, including the filing of such additional assignments, agreements, documents, and instruments, that may be necessary or as the other Party hereto may at any time and from time to time reasonably request in connection with this Agreement or to carry out more effectively the provisions and purposes of, or to better assure and confirm unto such other Party its rights and remedies under, this Agreement.

Section 8.11 Construction and Interpretation. Unless the context of this Agreement otherwise requires: (a) words of any gender include each other gender; (b) words using the singular or plural number also include the plural or singular number, respectively; (c) the terms “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby” and derivative or similar words refer to this entire Agreement; (d) the terms “Article,” “Section,” “Exhibit” or “clause” refer to the specified Article, Section, Exhibit or clause of this Agreement; (e) the term “or” has, except where otherwise indicated, the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase “and/or”; and (f) the term “including” or “includes” means “including without limitation” or “includes without limitation.” Whenever this Agreement refers to a number of days, such number shall refer to calendar days unless Business Days are specified. The captions of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and in no way define, describe, extend, or limit the scope or intent of this Agreement or the intent of any provision contained in this Agreement. The language of this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language mutually chosen by the Parties and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against either Party hereto.

Section 8.12 No Joint Venture. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to create any joint venture, agency, employer-employee or partnership between the Parties hereto, and, except as is expressly set forth herein, neither Party shall have any right by virtue of this Agreement to bind the other Party in any manner whatsoever.

Section 8.13 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith a valid, legal and enforceable substitute provision that most nearly reflects the original commercial intent of the Parties and all other provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect in such jurisdiction and shall be liberally construed in order to carry out the intentions of the Parties hereto as nearly as may be possible. Such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 8.14 Force Majeure. Neither Party shall be liable to the other Party for any failure to perform as required by this Agreement (other than the obligation to pay money) if the failure to perform is due to circumstances reasonably beyond such Party’s control including, without limitation, acts of God, civil disorders or commotions, acts of aggression, fire, explosions, floods, drought, war, sabotage, terrorism, embargo, utility failures, labor disturbances, a national health emergency, or appropriations of property, but excluding any act or decision made by a regulatory authority, (a “Force Majeure Event”). A Party whose performance is affected by a Force Majeure Event shall immediately notify the other Party of such inability and of the period for which such inability is expected to continue. The Party giving such notice shall be excused from the performance, or the punctual performance, of such obligations, as the case may be, from the date of such notice, up to a maximum of one hundred eighty (180) days, after which time (or such earlier time if it is readily apparent to the Party not affected by a Force Majeure Event that such event will exceed one hundred eighty (180) days in duration) the Party not affected, may terminate this Agreement immediately upon notice to the affected Party. To the extent possible, each Party shall use reasonable diligent efforts to avoid or minimize the duration of any Force Majeure Event.

Section 8.15 Independent Contractor. The Parties to this Agreement are independent contractors. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to place the Parties in the relationship of employer and employee, partners, principal and agent or a joint venture. Neither Party shall have the power to bind or obligate the other Party nor shall either Party hold itself out as having such authority.

Section 8.16 Publicity. Except as required by Applicable Law (including disclosure requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, NASDAQ or any other stock exchange on which securities issued by a Party are traded), neither Party shall make any public announcement concerning this Agreement or the subject matter hereof without the prior written consent of the other, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, provided that it shall not be unreasonable for a Party to withhold consent with respect to any public announcement containing any financial terms or any of such Party’s Confidential Information. In the event of a required public announcement, to the extent practicable under the circumstances, the Party

making such disclosure shall provide the other with a copy of any such proposed disclosure prior to release and shall consider in good faith the other Party’s comments with respect thereto. If required to file this Agreement by Applicable Laws, a Party shall consult with the other Party in advance of such filing and shall use reasonable efforts to obtain confidential treatment of its terms, to the extent reasonably possible. Prior to such announcement and with financial terms sufficiently in advance of the scheduled release of such announcement to afford such other Party a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon the proposed text. Nothing in this Section 8.16 will prohibit either Party from disclosing this Agreement or the subject matter hereof to any potential investor, investment banker or the like for the purpose of raising financing, provided that such disclosures are subject to appropriate confidentiality provisions and limited to use for evaluation of such financing.

Section 8.17 Use of Name. Except as otherwise provided herein, neither Party shall have any right, express or implied, to use in any manner the name or other designation of the other Party or any other trade name, trademark or logo of the other Party for any purpose in connection with the performance of this Agreement.

Section 8.18 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY HERETO (i) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THAT FOREGOING WAIVER, AND (ii) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY RELATED INSTRUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 8.18.

Section 8.19 Books and Records. Any books and records to be maintained under this Agreement by a Party shall be maintained in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied.

Section 8.20 Remedies. The remedies provided hereunder and under the governing law are cumulative and not exclusive.

Section 8.21 Counterparts/Execution. This Agreement may be executed manually, electronically in Adobe® PDF file format, or by facsimile by the Parties, in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when a counterpart hereof shall have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered to the other Party.
