Provision of Services.

Services. Pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, CRO shall provide on behalf of BIOMARIN certain Services in connection with the Studies more particularly described in the Scope of Work. To the extent that the terms of this Agreement and a Scope of Work conflict, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail unless the conflicting provision expressly provides otherwise. CRO shall perform the Services in accordance with applicable laws and regulations and in accordance with the SOPs designated in the Project Management Plan. The SOP(s) are subject to revision from time to time by BIOMARIN and BIOMARIN shall provide CRO notice of such revisions. If any such SOP revision can reasonably be expected to adversely affect the budget or timelines of the Services or a Study, CRO shall submit to BIOMARIN revised cost estimates or timelines for BIOMARIN’s approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

Default. Failure to complete any Services in a Timely and Professional manner shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement. In the event of any failure by CRO to complete any Services in a Timely and Professional manner, BIOMARIN shall have the option to provide CRO a Disputed Services Notice pursuant to Section 4(C) or a notice of default pursuant to Section 5(C), or both, and shall not be precluded from utilizing any other remedies available to it under this Agreement or applicable law.

Transfer of Obligations/Key Personnel.

Certain specific sponsor obligations transferred by BIOMARIN to CRO in connection with the Studies shall be identified in the Scope of Work that may be on a separate attachment to the Scope of Work under the heading “Transfer of Obligations.” BIOMARIN shall retain those responsibilities not expressly transferred thereby. Except for those obligations expressly transferred from BIOMARIN to CRO, BIOMARIN shall at all times be deemed to be the “sponsor” of each Study pursuant to the terms of the Act. CRO acknowledges that any decision by BIOMARIN to transfer obligations to CRO hereunder will be made based on, among other things, BIOMARIN’s reliance on the assignment of Key Personnel. So long as Key Personnel remain in the employ of CRO and their performance does not decline, and so long as the Key Personnel are not promoted, disabled or ill, CRO agrees that it will not substitute persons for any Key Personnel or materially reduce the time commitment of Key Personnel without the prior written consent of BIOMARIN, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

Payment of Fees and Expenses.

Study Budget. In consideration of the performance of the Services, CRO shall be paid the amounts set forth in the Study Budget, except as further specified in Attachment 4 of Exhibit B. The aggregate fees and expenses payable by BIOMARIN to CRO for the Services shall not exceed the fees and expenses specified in the Study Budget unless otherwise authorized in writing by BIOMARIN. In the event that the Study Budget provides that certain fees and expenses are estimates only, BIOMARIN’s obligations to pay amounts in excess of such estimates shall be expressly conditioned upon BIOMARIN receiving detailed advanced notice of CRO’s anticipated budget overages, and the reasons therefor, all of which must be satisfactory to BIOMARIN in its sole discretion. In addition, BIOMARIN shall only be obligated to pay the Pass Through Costs upon receipt of documentation of such expenses reasonably satisfactory to BIOMARIN.

Invoice. CRO shall provide BIOMARIN an invoice for completed Services detailing fees and any Pass Through Costs incurred as specified in the Study Budget. Invoices shall describe in detail the Services performed and expenses incurred for such Services, and shall meet the requirements specified in this Section 4. Except with regard to Disputed Services and except as otherwise provided herein, BIOMARIN shall submit payment in full for all invoices within [****] following receipt of such invoices from CRO.

Disputed Amounts. Payments due pursuant to a Study Budget, shall be paid in accordance with this Agreement when BIOMARIN has determined, in its reasonable discretion, that CRO has fulfilled its current responsibilities in a Timely and Professional manner except when an incident occurs that is outside of CRO’s reasonable control. In the event that BIOMARIN determines that any Services have not been completed in a Timely or Professional manner, it shall provide a Disputed Services Notice to CRO together with a detailed description of the basis for such determination, within thirty (30) days of acquiring knowledge of the events or omissions leading to BIOMARIN’s determination that such tasks have not been completed in a Timely or Professional manner. Notwithstanding any Disputed Services Notice, BIOMARIN shall be obligated to pay any outstanding amounts for Services not disputed in a Disputed Services Notice

when due. To the extent BIOMARIN reasonably believes a portion of any Services were not performed in a Timely or Professional manner, BIOMARIN shall not be obligated to pay any outstanding amounts for the Disputed Services until after BIOMARIN has reasonably determined CRO has cured all deficiencies identified by BIOMARIN and has submitted to BIOMARIN an adequate plan of correction, within the time frame requested by BIOMARIN in its Disputed Services Notice, to reasonably ensure that such deficiencies will not occur in the future. CRO shall be deemed to have cured a scheduling or frequency deficiency if it has provided all of the services that it was required to provide within the time frames set forth in a revised schedule approved by BIOMARIN. In the event that BIOMARIN has reasonably determined CRO has not cured all such deficiencies or has not submitted an adequate plan of correction within the required time frame as provided herein that is satisfactory to BIOMARIN, BIOMARIN may provide CRO a notice of default as provided in Section 5(C). Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon CRO’s failure to complete any Services in a Timely and Professional manner, BIOMARIN may, at its option, provide CRO a notice of default pursuant to Section 5(C) in lieu of providing a Disputed Services Notice pursuant to this Section 4.

Change in Scope. In the event BIOMARIN requests CRO to perform tasks beyond the Services set forth in the Scope of Work or requests CRO to reduce or otherwise modify the Services set forth in the applicable Scope of Work, CRO shall proceed as follows: consistent with the desire of both parties not to disrupt the ongoing progress of any Study, CRO shall use its best efforts to (i) submit proposed amendments to the applicable Scope of Work to cover such additional, reduced or modified tasks prior to commencing such tasks as well as an amended Study Budget should the modification of tasks affect the Study Budget; (ii) submit a new Scope of Work with a new Study Budget; and/or (iii) obtain written authorization from BIOMARIN to proceed with such tasks prior to final agreement on an amended or new Scope of Work. Both parties agree to use good faith efforts to negotiate and agree upon an amended or new Scope of Work as soon as practicable.

Contract Currency. All direct or other professional fees owed to CRO for Services performed under this Agreement shall generally be invoiced to and paid by BIOMARIN in the Contract Currency, which shall be defined as the currency designated in Exhibit B.

1. Since pricing and subsequent invoicing are denominated in U.S. dollars while at least a portion of expenditure on the services provided will arise in one or more different currencies, and the contract pricing totals do not include a margin to cover currency exchange rate fluctuations (“CERF”), the parties agree to review CERF’s every three months throughout the term of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 4(F).

2. The contract pricing is based on the following exchange rates : 1 US dollar = .5466 Pounds Sterling = .8233Euro. Provided no currency in which expenditure occurs increases or decreases by more than 3% with respect to the US Dollar, the review will conclude that no adjustment to the original pricing is required in relation to the services provided to that date.

3. Where a CERF between the U.S. dollar and any other currency of expenditure exceeds 3%, one party will have the potential for gain and the other will have the potential for unacceptable and unintentional loss. Both parties agree that where this occurs it will be necessary to adjust the pricing of the services to eliminate any loss that would otherwise be incurred by the CRO or BIOMARIN through no fault of either party.

4. Sponsor agrees that if a CERF produces an unscheduled loss not specifically included in the contract price, BIOMARIN will agree to a positive price adjustment (i.e. a payment to the CRO) in relation to the services affected, with the effect of offsetting this loss in its entirety.

5. The CRO agrees that if a CERF produces an unscheduled gain not included in the contract price, the CRO will agree to a negative price adjustment (i.e. a reduction in price) in relation to the services affected, with the effect of offsetting this gain in its entirety. In the calculation of the adjustments referred to above, the % CERF will be multiplied by the proportion of service pricing that is denominated in the currencies that have been subject to the CERF, and these services will then be invoiced at the adjusted prices until reviewed by the parties, unless otherwise agreed by the parties.

Term and Termination.

Commencement. The term of this Agreement shall commence as of the date first written above and shall terminate upon performance in full of all Services described in every Scope of Work, unless earlier terminated in accordance with the terms hereof. The parties may terminate this Agreement or a specific Scope of Work as provided herein except that, in the event this Agreement is terminated, every Scope of Work shall be terminated prior to or simultaneous with the effective date of termination of this Agreement, unless otherwise specifically agreed by the parties.

Termination. This Agreement or any Scope of Work may be terminated immediately upon written notice from BIOMARIN to CRO, in the following circumstances:

(1)

Authorization and approval to perform a Study, for which Services are provided hereunder, is withdrawn by the FDA, or other applicable regulatory authority, on a permanent or temporary basis;

(2)

Animal, human or toxicological test results, in the reasonable determination of BIOMARIN, support immediate termination of the Study; or

(3)

The emergence of adverse events that, in the sole determination of BIOMARIN, supports immediate termination or suspension of the Study.

Notice of Default/For Cause Termination. If either party (“defaulting party”) shall be in default of its obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, any failure by CRO to perform any of the Services in a Timely and Professional manner), then the other party (the “non-defaulting party”) may give notice to the defaulting party in writing of any such default. The defaulting party shall have the Cure Period from the date of receipt of such notice within which to cure such default. If, in the discretion of the non-defaulting party, reasonably exercised, such default has not been cured by the expiration of the Cure Period, at anytime thereafter until such default has been cured, the non-defaulting party may terminate this Agreement or a Scope of Work immediately upon written notice to the defaulting party. Such written notice shall state the effective date of termination, which may be immediately. Either party hereto may terminate this Agreement immediately upon the occurrence of an “Insolvency Event” with respect to

the other party. For purposes of this Agreement, “Insolvency Event” shall mean (1) a party or any of its subsidiaries shall commence a voluntary proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to itself or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law or seeking the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official of it or any substantial part of its property, or shall consent to any such relief or to the appointment of or taking possession by any such official in an involuntary case or other proceeding commenced against it, or shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or shall fail generally to pay its debts as they become due, or shall take any action to authorize any of the foregoing; (2) an involuntary case or other proceeding shall be commenced against a party or any of its subsidiaries seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to it or its debts under bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law or seeking the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official of it or any substantial part of its property, and such involuntary case or other proceeding shall remain undismissed and unstayed for a period of sixty (60) days; or (3) an order for relief shall be entered against a party or any of its subsidiaries under the federal bankruptcy laws now or hereafter in effect.

No Cause Termination. BIOMARIN may terminate this Agreement or any Scope of Work with at least sixty (60) days written notice; provided, however, that such notice may specify immediate suspension of recruitment or enrollment of Study subjects. CRO agrees to cooperate with the terms of any such notice.

CRO Obligations Upon Early Termination. Both CRO and BIOMARIN recognize that early termination of this Agreement or a Scope of Work requires both discussion and coordination between the parties to ensure patient safety, continuity of treatment (if appropriate) and compliance with all applicable regulations. Upon early termination of this Agreement or a Scope of Work, CRO shall cooperate with BIOMARIN to provide for an orderly cessation of the applicable Services. CRO further agrees that it will take no action or forego taking action if such action or forbearance would in any manner jeopardize patient safety or the utility, quality or integrity of the Study or violate or cause BIOMARIN to violate any applicable laws. In addition, unless otherwise stipulated by BIOMARIN, CRO shall perform such Services as are reasonably necessary in connection with the orderly wind-down of the Study or the transfer of CRO’s responsibilities to BIOMARIN or BIOMARIN’s designee. Upon receipt of detailed written instructions from BIOMARIN regarding the scope of tasks to be taken by CRO in connection with termination of this Agreement or any Scope of Work or of CRO’s duties hereunder or thereunder, CRO shall submit a reasonable budget prepared in good faith to BIOMARIN within five (5) business days of receipt of such instructions for BIOMARIN’s approval. The instruction for wind down services and approved budget are referred to herein as the “Wind Down Plan.”

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, CRO shall transfer to BIOMARIN the Materials obtained or developed by CRO pursuant to this Agreement as soon as reasonably practical as agreed between the parties but in no event later than sixty (60) days. CRO may retain an archival copy of all Materials provided to BIOMARIN or developed or used in connection with the Study, provided that such archival copy remains subject to the confidentiality obligations set forth in Section 6. If BIOMARIN should request CRO to store the Materials beyond termination or expiration of this Agreement, BIOMARIN will reimburse CRO for its maintenance and storage costs.

Other Remedies. CRO acknowledges and agrees that transfer of the Materials are critically important to BIOMARIN and that failure of CRO to comply with its obligations regarding the transfer of the Materials to BIOMARIN would cause BIOMARIN irreparable harm for which there is no adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, CRO admits that in the event of a breach by CRO of its obligations to transfer the Materials to BIOMARIN, upon the filing of a complaint by BIOMARIN, a court of competent jurisdiction may issue an order enjoining or restraining CRO from refusing or failing to transfer the Materials and requiring CRO to take any other action the court deems necessary. Nothing herein contained will be construed as prohibiting BIOMARIN from pursuing any other remedies available at law or in equity for any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement.

BIOMARIN Obligations Upon Early Termination. Upon early termination of this Agreement, BIOMARIN shall promptly compensate CRO for all Services actually performed hereunder prior to the effective date of termination including those Services actually performed towards completion of a unit or milestone, for which Services CRO has not yet been compensated and for non-cancelable expenses incurred by CRO pursuant to the approved Study Budget, or shall pay such compensation if applicable, in accordance with the budget included in the Wind Down Plan. BIOMARIN’s obligation to compensate CRO is subject, however, to BIOMARIN’s rights hereunder to withhold payments in the event of a breach or failure to perform such Services in a Timely and Professional Manner and provided further that CRO has first transferred the Materials requested by BIOMARIN. Further, BIOMARIN shall reimburse CRO for all Pass Through Costs expressly approved by BIOMARIN as provided herein.

Confidentiality.

Confidential Information. During the term of this Agreement the parties may exchange confidential or proprietary information. In each case the party disclosing the confidential information will be the “Disclosing Party” and the recipient of the information will be the “Recipient,” as such terms are used herein. The Materials and any and all inventions, products, product development plans, standard operating procedures, costs, profits, markets, sales, services, investigator lists, key personnel, pricing policies, billing rates, operational methods, trade secrets, know-how, scientific and technical processes, technical and business information, patent information, structures, models, techniques, formula, processes, compositions, compounds, apparatus, specifications, samples, ideas, other business affairs and methods, plans for future developments, and other information not readily available to the public relating to the Disclosing Party or to any aspect of the business of the Disclosing Party or of the business of any affiliate of the Disclosing Party (collectively, the “Confidential Information”) shall be treated as confidential information, regardless of whether or not marked as proprietary or confidential. Confidential Information may be disclosed orally, visually or in tangible form (whether by document, electronic media, or other form).

Non-Disclosure. The Recipient agrees to hold the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information in confidence and shall use such Confidential Information only for the purpose of performing the Services. The Recipient shall not reproduce the Confidential Information, or disclose any Confidential Information to any third party, without prior

written approval of the Disclosing Party. The Recipient agrees to protect the Confidential Information with at least the same degree of care as it normally exercises to protect its own proprietary information of a similar nature, but in any case using no less than a reasonable degree of care. The Recipient shall take all appropriate steps to ensure that all of its employees, consultants, affiliates or others only receive the Disclosing Party’s Information on a need-to-know basis, within the scope of this Agreement, and then, only if such parties are bound by obligations of confidentiality substantially similar to the terms of this Section 6; provided, however, that CRO shall not disclose BIOMARIN’s Confidential Information to anyone other than Key Personnel of CRO without BIOMARIN’s prior written consent. Without limiting any other provision of this Section 6, the Recipient shall not use the Disclosing Party’s Information, in whole or in part, to compete with the Disclosing Party, to develop blocking technology, or otherwise to damage the Disclosing Party or to enable or assist any other person in doing so.

No Transfer of Rights. Nothing in this Section 6 shall be construed as granting or implying any license or right under any trademark, service ▇▇▇▇, patent, copyright or any other intellectual property right. None of the Confidential Information which may be disclosed by the Disclosing Party shall constitute any representation, warranty, assurance, guarantee or inducement by the Disclosing Party to the Recipient, including, without limitation, with respect to the non-infringement of intellectual property rights, or other rights of third persons, or as representing any commitment to enter into any additional agreement, by implication or otherwise.

Return/Destruction of Confidential Information. The Recipient, upon the written request of the Disclosing Party, shall, at the option of the Disclosing Party, (i) return, at the Disclosing Party’s expense, or (ii) destroy, all tangible or electronic forms of the Confidential Information; provided, however, that the Recipient may retain a single copy of the Confidential Information and related materials in its archives solely for the purpose of ensuring its compliance with this Agreement and applicable laws, provided that the single copy is maintained in a secure system and remains subject to the confidentiality obligations of this Section 6. The Recipient agrees to provide a written certification of destruction in accordance with clause (ii) above upon the written request of the Disclosing Party.

Length of Obligation. The obligations of the Recipient with respect to Confidential Information set forth herein shall continue for a period of seven (7) years from the date of disclosure of Confidential Information, or for a longer period if so required by law, unless otherwise specified in a writing signed by both of the parties.

Exceptions. For purposes of this Agreement, Confidential Information shall not include:

(1)

information that is or becomes public other than by breach of these provisions of this Agreement;

(2)

information required to be disclosed in any legal, administrative or governmental proceeding, or by court order, law or applicable regulation, provided that, if possible, the Recipient has provided notice to the Disclosing Party of such requirement to disclose and affords to the Disclosing Party an opportunity to challenge such disclosure;

(3)

information that becomes available to the Recipient without any obligation of confidentiality on Recipient from a source other than the Disclosing Party, or its representatives or affiliates, as evidenced by written records; or

(4)

information that was independently developed by or for the Recipient without access to the Confidential Information, as evidenced by written records.

The Recipient shall have the burden of proving the existence of any of the foregoing exceptions.

Equitable Relief. The Recipient hereby acknowledges that the Disclosing Party would be irreparably damaged if the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information were disclosed to any third party, or utilized in any manner not permitted herein, which damage could not be adequately compensated for by money damages. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Recipient of the provisions hereof, the Recipient agrees that the Disclosing Party may seek an injunction restraining the Recipient from such breach. Nothing herein shall be construed as prohibiting the Disclosing Party from pursuing any other remedies available at law or in equity for any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement.

Privacy Laws. All information containing personal data shall be handled in accordance with all applicable privacy laws, rules and regulations.

Intellectual Property.

Ownership. The Materials are and shall remain the exclusive property of BIOMARIN.

Inventions. As used here in this Agreement, “Inventions” means any information, ideas, methods, data, inventions, works, rights, properties, technology and know-how that is conceived, created, discovered, developed or invented by CRO, its agents, officers or employees which in any manner use, arise from, rely on or incorporate the Materials or Confidential Information of BIOMARIN. CRO shall disclose in writing to BIOMARIN any and all Inventions promptly upon becoming aware of the existence of such Inventions. CRO represents that it has taken all reasonable business measures to ensure that all personnel performing work pursuant to the terms of this Agreement have executed legally binding agreements necessary to assign to BIOMARIN any and all patent, copyright, trade secret, trade ▇▇▇▇, service ▇▇▇▇, know-how and any other intellectual property rights whatsoever to all Inventions made by such personnel during the course of their work pursuant to this Agreement (collectively, “Intellectual Property”).

Assignment. CRO agrees to assign, and does hereby assign, to BIOMARIN all right, title and interest that CRO may have in any of the Intellectual Property.

Patent Assistance. CRO shall cooperate with BIOMARIN and execute any and all applications, assignments or other instruments reasonably necessary to apply for and obtain letters patent of the United States or of any other country, or to obtain any recordation of or otherwise protect BIOMARIN’s interest in the Intellectual Property. BIOMARIN shall compensate CRO for its time reasonably devoted to such assistance and reimburse CRO for its reasonable expenses incurred in connection therewith.

CRO Intellectual Property. All inventions, know-how, trade secrets, improvements, other intellectual property, computer programs, software (including codes), databases, applications, data collection, data management processes, proposals and other documentation, all devoid of BIOMARIN’s Materials and Confidential Information, laboratory analyses, analytical methods, procedures and techniques, which are generally used or developed solely by CRO and not pertaining particularly to any Study, and any improvement, alteration or enhancement to the same, which are not specifically requested and paid for by BIOMARIN during the course of performance of the Services, are the exclusive and confidential property of CRO or the third parties from whom CRO has secured the right of use (“CRO Intellectual Property”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Study data are and shall remain the property of BIOMARIN.

Non-Exclusive License. In a Scope of Work, CRO may grant BIOMARIN a limited license to use certain CRO Intellectual Property. To the extent such license is granted, unless otherwise specified in the Scope of Work, the license shall be a limited, non-transferable, royalty-free non-exclusive license to use such CRO Intellectual Property as is required to give BIOMARIN full benefit of the work product, and for no other purpose, and shall include the right to authorize others, such as research collaborators, service providers, and reviewing regulatory agencies, to use such CRO Intellectual Property in connection with their use of the work product only. BIOMARIN agrees that all such licenses shall be (i) restricted to use in conjunction with the work product, (ii) if software, shall only be in object code form which BIOMARIN agrees to hold confidential and which BIOMARIN agrees that it will not reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble, copy, translate, adapt, vary or modify; (iii) will not take any action in conflict with CRO’s ownership interest, and (iv) will indemnify and hold CRO harmless from any claim with respect to BIOMARIN’s use.

Indemnification by CRO. CRO shall hold harmless, defend and indemnify BIOMARIN, its successors in interest, shareholders, directors, officers, employees, representatives, agents, subsidiaries, affiliates, from and against, any and all Covered Claims incurred in connection with the negligence or misconduct of CRO in the performances of their duties hereunder or other breach of this Agreement, or of a Scope of Work; provided, however, CRO shall have no obligation hereunder to the extent any such claim arises primarily from, the Study Drug or the administration thereof, the negligence or misconduct of BIOMARIN or a material breach of this Agreement by BIOMARIN.

10.

Process for Indemnification.

Defense. The obligation to indemnify a party in accordance with Section 9 is specifically contingent upon the party seeking indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) providing notice of any actual or threatened Covered Claims as soon as practicable to the party from whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) to enable the Indemnifying Party to arrange for and assume control of defense of such Covered Claims, provided, however, that failure to give prompt notice shall not limit the Indemnified Party’s rights to indemnification under this Agreement to the extent that the Indemnifying Party fails to establish that the Indemnifying Party was prejudiced by such failure. The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled, at its option, to assume and control the defense or settlement of any Covered Claims unless (i) the Indemnifying Party fails to notify the

Indemnified Party in writing within ten (10) days after the Indemnified Party has given to the Indemnifying Party notice of the actual or threatened Covered Claims that the Indemnifying Party will assume the defense of a Covered Claim and indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Indemnified Party from and against the Covered Claims, (ii) counsel for the Indemnified Party determines that there exists a conflict of interest between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party in the conduct of any such defense or settlement, or (iii) the Indemnified Party determines, in its reasonable discretion, that the Indemnifying Party has failed to conduct the defense or settlement of such Covered Claims actively and diligently.

Dispute Resolution.

Governing Law. The validity, interpretation, and performance of this Agreement will be determined in accordance with the laws of the State of California without regard to its conflicts of laws rules and principles.

Resolution of Disputes. The parties shall first attempt to settle any and all disputes arising out of or in connection with or relating to the execution, interpretation, performance, or nonperformance of this Agreement or any other certificate, agreement, or other instrument between, involving, or affecting the parties (including the validity, scope, and enforceability of this arbitration agreement) (each, a “Dispute”) through good faith negotiation before resorting to arbitration.

Arbitration. Should the parties be unable in good faith to resolve such Dispute by way of good faith negotiation within twenty (20) days, such Dispute shall be solely and finally settled by confidential, binding arbitration before a panel of three arbitrators appointed in accordance with the Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association (the “Rules”); provided, however, that in the event of conflict between the Rules and the terms of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall govern. The arbitration panel shall render its award based on the explicit terms of this Agreement; and in instances where it is silent, on the basis of strict principles consistent with terms of the Agreement. To commence arbitration of any such dispute, the party desiring arbitration shall notify the other party in writing in accordance with the Rules. The place of arbitration shall be San Francisco, California, and the law applicable to the arbitration procedure shall be the Federal Arbitration Act (9 USC § 2). To commence arbitration of any such dispute, the party desiring arbitration shall notify the other party in writing in accordance with the Rules. Each party shall choose one arbitrator and the two arbitrators shall choose the third member of the panel.

Exclusive Remedy. The parties agree that the award of the arbitration panel shall (1) be the sole and exclusive remedy between them regarding any claims, counterclaims, or issues presented to the arbitrator; (2) be final and subject to no judicial review, except as otherwise as required by applicable law; and (3) be made and shall promptly be payable in U.S. dollars free of any tax, withholding, deduction, or offset. The parties further agree that any costs, fees (including reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements), or taxes incident to enforcing the award shall, to the maximum extent permitted by law, be charged against the party resisting such enforcement. The parties hereto agree that judgment on the arbitration award may be entered and enforced in any court having jurisdiction over the parties or their assets.

Payment. Initial payment of arbitration filing fees, arbitration administrative fees, arbitration expenses, and arbitrators’ compensation, shall be made in accordance with the Rules. However, the prevailing party, as determined by the arbitrators, shall be entitled to reimbursement of the arbitration filing fees, arbitration administrative fees, arbitration expenses, and arbitrator’s compensation, and reasonable attorney’s fees, costs and expenses associated with the arbitration.

Equitable Relief. Nothing in this Section 14 shall be construed to restrict either party’s right to seek and obtain injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction in the event a party has breached or threatens to breach any of its obligations under Section 6 or Section 7.

15.

Miscellaneous.

Binding Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns; provided, however, that CRO shall not transfer or assign its rights or delegate its duties under this Agreement without the prior written consent of BIOMARIN. Any such assignment or delegation in violation of this Section 15(A) shall be null and void.

Force Majeure. A party shall be excused from performing its obligations hereunder if its performance is directly delayed or prevented by any cause beyond such party’s reasonable control including, but not limited to, acts of God, fire, explosion, weather, disease, war, insurrection, civil strife, riots, government action, or power failure; provided that (a) the delayed or prevented party (i) gives the other party written notice of such cause promptly, and in any event within fifteen (15) days of discovery thereof, and (ii) uses its reasonable best efforts to perform its obligations notwithstanding such circumstances. Performance shall be excused only to the extent of and during the reasonable continuance of such cause if such cause continues to directly delay or prevent performance. Any deadline or time for performance of a Service falling due during or subsequent to the occurrence of any of the causes referred to herein shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period such cause delayed or prevented the affected party from performing its obligation hereunder. Suspension by a party of its obligations hereunder during a force majeure event shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement or such obligations hereunder, nor shall a party have any liability to the other party for such suspension. If an event of force majeure extends for a period exceeding twenty (20) days, BIOMARIN may, at its sole option, elect to terminate this Agreement or the applicable Scope of Work, in which case the provisions of Section 5(B) shall apply.

Amendments. This Agreement may be modified or amended only by a writing executed by both parties hereto.
