Subject to section 2.12 of this AGREEMENT, MERCK (on behalf of itself and its AFFILIATES, distributors and other agents) agrees to exclusively purchase PRODUCT from BIOMIRA pursuant to this AGREEMENT. Further, additional provisions in relation to quality assurance and regulatory requirements shall be set out in one or more separate quality agreements (the "QUALITY AGREEMENT(S)").

January 1, 2007 to and including December 31, 2007. On January 1, 2007, and thereafter on the first day of each following calendar quarter, MERCK shall provide to BIOMIRA an updated rolling forecast by adding to the remaining twelve (12) months covered by the previous forecast the next following calendar quarter (e.g., on January 1, 2007 MERCK is required to update the previous forecast by providing BIOMIRA with MERCK's requirements for the calendar quarter January 1, 2008 to and including March 31, 2008). With respect to each calendar quarter specified in any such rolling forecast (a "SPECIFIED QUARTER"), MERCK shall, at a minimum, purchase from BIOMIRA, by firm purchase order [+] However, BIOMIRA and MERCK agree that it is in the interests of both parties to seek to meet all demand for PRODUCT and, in the foregoing regard, BIOMIRA and MERCK will work together to resolve any capacity issues. Further, BIOMIRA and MERCK agree to consider revisions to the procedures set forth in this section 2.2.1 as required and agreed upon in writing in the future.

2.2.2

With each delivery of PRODUCT to MERCK, BIOMIRA shall provide a certificate of analysis (in substantially the form attached to this AGREEMENT as Schedule 4), a certificate of compliance for each lot of PRODUCT comprising such delivery and a completed batch record form. BIOMIRA shall also provide to MERCK such documentation under the control of BIOMIRA required by applicable law and regulation in order to allow MERCK to release and SELL PRODUCT in the NA TERRITORY and the ROW TERRITORY;

2.2.3

all PRODUCT purchased hereunder by MERCK from BIOMIRA shall conform at the time of delivery by BIOMIRA to MERCK to the SPECIFICATIONS applicable to PRODUCT, shall have been manufactured in accordance with cGMP and all applicable laws and regulations in the country of manufacture (and, if MERCK has in a timely manner informed BIOMIRA in writing thereof, the specific applicable laws and regulations of the United States of America and the European Union and, if BIOMIRA agrees in writing (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld), any other country in the ROW TERRITORY), and no PRODUCT shall, at the time of delivery by BIOMIRA to MERCK, be adultered or misbranded within the meaning of the United States Food, Drug and Cosmetics Act and/or the Public Health Service Act or, to the extent applicable, be an article which may not be introduced into interstate commerce under section 505 of the United States Food, Drug and Cosmetics Act and section 351 of the Public Health Service Act;

2.2.4

all PRODUCT purchased hereunder by MERCK from BIOMIRA shall at the time of delivery by BIOMIRA to MERCK have such shelf life as is agreed to in writing by BIOMIRA and MERCK, provided that [+]

2.2.5

upon receipt of any PRODUCT, MERCK may inspect and test the PRODUCT for conformance to the applicable SPECIFICATIONS (and material deviations from the applicable batch records) and may, up to the date which is sixty (60) days after the date of receipt by MERCK of such shipment of PRODUCT and the applicable certificate of analysis, certificate of compliance and

[+] DESIGNATES PORTIONS OF THIS DOCUMENT THAT HAVE BEEN OMITTED FOR CONFIDENTIALITY PURPOSES

batch record form (the "REJECTION DATE"), reject the same by sending to BIOMIRA written notice (the "REJECTION NOTICE") of such rejection on or before the REJECTION DATE (specifying the nature of such non-conformance) if the PRODUCT does not conform to the applicable SPECIFICATIONS. MERCK shall be deemed (except with respect to latent defects as at the time of delivery of PRODUCT by BIOMIRA to MERCK (and not as a result of subsequent legal, regulatory or other similar changes), in which case this provision shall apply after the expiration of sixty (60) days after the discovery of such latent defect) to have accepted a particular delivery of PRODUCT if MERCK has not sent to BIOMIRA a REJECTION NOTICE in connection with such delivery on or before the REJECTION DATE related to such delivery. If BIOMIRA disagrees with the alleged non-conformity of the PRODUCT with the applicable SPECIFICATIONS, quality representatives of BIOMIRA and MERCK shall negotiate in good faith to assess whether there has been a non-conformity and the corrective action, if any, to be taken by BIOMIRA. In the event the quality representatives of BIOMIRA and MERCK are unable to agree on whether or not there has been a non-conformity, then an independent laboratory or QA consultant, mutually agreed upon in writing by the parties, shall analyze samples of the alleged non-conforming PRODUCT to determine compliance with the applicable SPECIFICATIONS. MERCK and BIOMIRA shall be bound by the laboratory analysis of such alleged non-conforming PRODUCT. The cost incurred in connection with retaining the independent laboratory or QA consultant shall be borne by MERCK if the PRODUCT in question is found to conform to the applicable SPECIFICATIONS and by BIOMIRA if the PRODUCT in question is found not to conform to the applicable SPECIFICATIONS. Notwithstanding the foregoing procedure to determine whether or not the PRODUCT conforms with the SPECIFICATIONS, BIOMIRA shall replace the batch under investigation from existing inventory (to the extent available) if so requested in writing by MERCK. To the extent it is determined that any PRODUCT supplied by BIOMIRA to MERCK under this AGREEMENT does not conform to the applicable SPECIFICATIONS or materially deviates from the applicable batch records, BIOMIRA's sole obligation and MERCK's sole remedy shall be to have BIOMIRA replace such non-conforming PRODUCT from existing inventory (to the extent available) at no additional cost to MERCK as promptly as practicable. BIOMIRA shall reimburse MERCK for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by MERCK to, at BIOMIRA's option, destroy such nonconforming PRODUCT or ship such nonconforming PRODUCT to such destination as BIOMIRA may specify in writing to MERCK. MERCK shall pay BIOMIRA for all conforming PRODUCT, including, without limitation, the original PRODUCT supplied as well as any and all replacement PRODUCT supplied;

2.2.6

To enable MERCK to inspect and test the PRODUCT for conformance to the applicable SPECIFICATIONS, BIOMIRA shall use commercially reasonable efforts to transfer to MERCK the test assays necessary for the testing of PRODUCT as described in Section 2.2.5 above, provided that BIOMIRA and MERCK acknowledge that BIOMIRA’s resources required in connection with such transfer obligations are limited and may be required elsewhere;

2.2.7

BIOMIRA shall inspect, or cause to be inspected, in accordance with the applicable SPECIFICATIONS and as otherwise agreed in writing by the parties, each lot of PRODUCT prior to delivery thereof to MERCK. With respect to the results of such inspection in relation to a particular lot of PRODUCT, BIOMIRA shall notify MERCK in a timely manner of any deviations from the applicable SPECIFICATIONS. A certificate of analysis for each lot delivered shall set forth the items tested and the test results. A certificate of compliance and a batch record form for each lot shall also be provided by BIOMIRA to MERCK wherein BIOMIRA shall certify that the PRODUCT in question has been produced in accordance with the applicable SPECIFICATIONS, cGMP and all applicable laws and regulations in the country of manufacture (and, if MERCK has in a timely manner informed BIOMIRA in writing thereof, the specific applicable laws and regulations of the United States of America and the European Union and, if BIOMIRA agrees in writing, any other country in the ROW TERRITORY). BIOMIRA shall also indicate on the certificate of compliance that all lot production and control records and PRODUCT master files have been reviewed and approved by or on behalf of the appropriate quality control unit of BIOMIRA. BIOMIRA shall send, or cause to be sent, such certificates to MERCK concurrently with or prior to the shipment of each lot of PRODUCT;

2.2.8

2.2.8.1

subject to section 2.2.8.2 of this AGREEMENT, no more than once during any twelve (12) consecutive month period (except to the extent more frequently required in order to comply with any applicable specific legal or regulatory requirement), MERCK may conduct a COMPLIANCE AUDIT of the facilities of BIOMIRA and its wholly-owned AFFILIATES, and, to the extent permitted, its non-wholly owned AFFILIATES and subcontractors, at which manufacture, packaging or testing of PRODUCT (whether it is used for clinical or commercial purposes) and its COMPONENTS is being conducted;

2.2.8.2

in the event of (i) the receipt by BIOMIRA of a "Warning Letter" or a Form 483 (or other equivalent regulatory action) from the FDA relating to the manufacture, packaging or any other activity performed by BIOMIRA or its AFFILIATES or subcontractors under this AGREEMENT relating to the manufacture or testing of PRODUCT, or (ii) a determination pursuant to section 2.2.5 of this AGREEMENT that any PRODUCT supplied by BIOMIRA to MERCK under this AGREEMENT does not conform to the applicable SPECIFICATIONS or materially deviates from the applicable batch records (individually or collectively, an "EVENT"), MERCK shall have the right with respect to each such EVENT to conduct an additional COMPLIANCE AUDIT (such additional COMPLIANCE AUDIT referred to herein as an "EVENT AUDIT"). With respect to an EVENT AUDIT of the facilities of BIOMIRA, BIOMIRA shall, to the extent applicable, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its AFFILIATES and subcontractors to also permit such EVENT AUDIT;

2.2.8.3

for purposes of this AGREEMENT, the term "COMPLIANCE AUDIT" shall mean a review by appropriate representatives of MERCK (not to exceed two (2) in number and who shall, at BIOMIRA's option, in all circumstances be accompanied by one or more representatives of BIOMIRA and its AFFILIATES) of those portions of BIOMIRA's and its wholly owned AFFILIATES', and, to the extent permitted, its non-wholly owned AFFILIATES' and subcontractors' facilities at which the manufacture, packaging or testing of PRODUCT and its COMPONENTS is being conducted, for purposes of reviewing BIOMIRA's, its AFFILIATES' and its subcontractors' procedures and processes used in the manufacture or testing of PRODUCT and its COMPONENTS, including, but not limited to, production and quality control records related to PRODUCT and its COMPONENTS, and investigations of quality specifically relating to PRODUCT and its COMPONENTS. With respect to such COMPLIANCE AUDIT, BIOMIRA shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its subcontractors to permit such COMPLIANCE AUDIT (including, to the extent reasonable in the circumstances, amending existing and future agreements with applicable subcontractors to permit MERCK to conduct COMPLIANCE AUDITS pursuant to this section 2.2.8). Any of MERCK's representatives other than MERCK employees conducting any such COMPLIANCE AUDIT shall, at the reasonable request of BIOMIRA, its AFFILIATES and/or its subcontractors and/or COMPONENT suppliers, enter into an agreement with BIOMIRA, its AFFILIATES and/or its subcontractors and/or COMPONENT suppliers with respect to confidentiality containing provisions substantially similar to those set forth in article 3 of this AGREEMENT. BIOMIRA and its wholly owned AFFILIATES, and to the extent applicable and permitted, its non-wholly owned AFFILIATES and subcontractors, shall cooperate with and provide reasonable assistance to MERCK during any such COMPLIANCE AUDIT. With respect to each facility, MERCK shall complete any such COMPLIANCE AUDIT in five (5) business days. All COMPLIANCE AUDITS shall be at MERCK's expense (including with respect to representatives of BIOMIRA, except in circumstances where representatives of BIOMIRA are present as part of a regular BIOMIRA audit in which case MERCK shall not be responsible for the costs and expenses of such representatives of BIOMIRA) and shall take place during normal business hours and with not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to BIOMIRA and any other person proposed to be audited.

2.2.8.5

within thirty (30) days after the completion of any COMPLIANCE AUDIT pursuant to this section 2.2.8, the party conducting the audit shall submit to the other party a written report outlining its findings and observations from any such COMPLIANCE AUDIT. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of MERCK's report, BIOMIRA shall reply to MERCK, which reply shall, to the extent applicable, include a timetable for responding to any material findings. If BIOMIRA conducts any audit of any non-wholly owned AFFILIATE of BIOMIRA or subcontractor on behalf of MERCK pursuant to section 2.2.8.4 of this AGREEMENT, BIOMIRA shall cause, to the extent it is able to do so, such AFFILIATE or subcontractor to respond, to the extent applicable, to any material findings, taking into account MERCK's comments and concerns.

2.2.9

BIOMIRA and MERCK agree that the responsibility for maintaining the appropriate inventory levels of PRODUCT for purposes of this AGREEMENT and the COLLABORATION AGREEMENT rests with MERCK. Nevertheless, BIOMIRA shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain in inventory following the first LAUNCH of PRODUCT in the TERRITORY one (1) full manufacturing batch of PRODUCT with customary yields (whatever number of vials such batch produces less the vials (i) used for QC testing and (ii) normal retention) (the "BIOMIRA INVENTORY VIALS"). The parties acknowledge that the ability to maintain such supply of PRODUCT may be affected by a variety of factors including increased SALES, new regulatory requirements, Biomira’s obligation to replace a batch as set forth in section 2.2.5 above and force majeure. Such PRODUCT inventory shall be rotated based on a first in/first out approach. The cost of maintaining all the BIOMIRA INVENTORY VIALS shall be borne by BIOMIRA. Subject to the agreement in writing of BIOMIRA and MERCK on the specific terms thereof, MERCK may following the EXECUTION DATE maintain in inventory such amount of COMPONENTS as is needed for at least two (2) full manufacturing batches of PRODUCT. Such COMPONENTS inventory shall be rotated based on a first in/first out approach and all costs associated with acquiring and maintaining such inventory shall be borne exclusively by MERCK.

BIOMIRA will keep and maintain proper and complete records and books of account in relation to the BIOMIRA COST OF GOODS. BIOMIRA shall at least once in each calendar year during normal business hours upon thirty (30) days prior written notice from MERCK make those records available for audit by an internationally recognized accounting firm designated by MERCK (except one to which BIOMIRA shall have objection, acting reasonably, and provided such accounting firm has entered into a confidentiality agreement with the audited party which provides protection for confidential information which is similar to that provided under article 3 of this AGREEMENT) for the sole purpose of, and BIOMIRA will only be required to disclose information related to, verifying the BIOMIRA COST OF GOODS. BIOMIRA shall preserve such records made in any calendar year for a period of seven (7) years following the close of that calendar year. Results of any such examination shall be made available to each of BIOMIRA and MERCK, but all backup documentation and data shall be made available only to such accounting firm for use only on the premises of the audited party. In the event that such audit discloses that the actual amount of BIOMIRA COST OF GOODS are less than the amount used for purposes of section 2.6.4 and paid by MERCK to BIOMIRA, then BIOMIRA shall reimburse to MERCK such overpayment. In the event that such audit discloses that the actual amount of BIOMIRA COST OF GOODS are greater than the amount used for purposes of section 2.6.4 and paid by MERCK to BIOMIRA, then MERCK shall promptly pay to BIOMIRA such underpayment. The cost of such audit shall be borne by MERCK unless such audit discloses that BIOMIRA COST OF GOODS is more than five percent (5%) less than the amount used for purposes of section 2.6.4 and paid by MERCK to BIOMIRA, in which case BIOMIRA shall be responsible for payment of all reasonable costs of such audit.

Section 2.9

Supply Background

BIOMIRA is presently contracting with certain third parties in relation to the supply of PRODUCT. BIOMIRA may continue to use third parties in connection with the supply of PRODUCT or may assume some or all of such operations itself. To the extent it affects BIOMIRA's obligations to MERCK under this AGREEMENT, BIOMIRA shall (solely for purposes of BIOMIRA's obligations to MERCK under this AGREEMENT) be responsible for the acts and omissions of the third parties (other than with respect to MERCK and the MERCK SUB-SUPPLIERS and subject to section 2.11 of this AGREEMENT (including without limitation section 2.11.6)), which it uses in connection with the manufacture and supply of PRODUCT under this AGREEMENT and such acts and omissions shall be regarded for purposes of this AGREEMENT as the acts and omissions of BIOMIRA. Further, BIOMIRA shall promptly notify MERCK in writing if it receives written notice that any third party supplier which BIOMIRA is using in connection with the supply of PRODUCT and its COMPONENTS under this AGREEMENT considers BIOMIRA to be in breach of a material provision of any agreement (relating to such supply of PRODUCT and its COMPONENTS) between BIOMIRA and such third party supplier. BIOMIRA shall not, without the prior written consent of MERCK, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, agree to any change in the specifications for COMPONENTS supplied by such third party supplier to the extent that any such change in specifications for COMPONENTS may affect BIOMIRA's ability to supply PRODUCT meeting the applicable SPECIFICATIONS under this AGREEMENT. Finally, each of BIOMIRA and MERCK shall, with respect to any "Warning Letter" or Form 483 (or other equivalent regulatory action) from the FDA received by such party or any AFFILIATE of such party (either in relation to itself or any third party supplier) relating to the manufacture of PRODUCT and its COMPONENTS under this AGREEMENT, promptly notify the other party and provide the other party with a copy of such "Warning Letter" or Form 483 (or other equivalent regulatory action) from the FDA or EMEA.

Section 2.10

CLINICAL DEVELOPMENT Supply

All PRODUCT (as well as placebo) required for CLINICAL DEVELOPMENT in the NA TERRITORY and the ROW TERRITORY shall be supplied by BIOMIRA to MERCK in accordance with the provisions of this article 2, except to the extent otherwise agreed to in writing by BIOMIRA (or its designated AFFILIATE) and MERCK. All such PRODUCT shall be clearly labelled as being for clinical trial purposes only and not for commercial SALE.

Section 2.11

MERCK as Secondary Manufacturer

2.11.1

BIOMIRA and MERCK acknowledge that sufficient supply of PRODUCT is of importance for the collaboration set forth in the COLLABORATION AGREEMENT, and agree that multiple sourcing is one of the strategies to reduce the risk of supply shortages. In such regard, MERCK has advised BIOMIRA that MERCK and its AFFILIATE(S) may have manufacturing capacity and manufacturing capabilities that may be employed for one or more of the necessary steps in the manufacture or testing of PRODUCT. Therefore, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.11, MERCK (directly or through any of its AFFILIATE(S) and/or third party contract manufacturing organization(s) acceptable to BIOMIRA acting reasonably required by MERCK to act as sub-suppliers to MERCK (the "MERCK SUB-SUPPLIERS")), shall have the right, at MERCK’s option during the term of this AGREEMENT (whether for clinical trial or commercial material), to become a secondary manufacturer of PRODUCT for BIOMIRA upon such industry standard terms and conditions as BIOMIRA and MERCK, acting reasonably and in good faith, shall agree upon in writing at the relevant time (a "CMO AGREEMENT") including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the following terms and conditions:

2.11.1.1

[+]

2.11.1.2

MERCK (and the MERCK SUB-SUPPLIERS) shall fully share with BIOMIRA and its AFFILIATES in a timely manner all inventions, discoveries, improvements, processes, procedures, data and information in relation to the manufacturing activities undertaken by MERCK (and the MERCK SUB-SUPPLIERS) and shall grant to BIOMIRA and its AFFILIATES the right to utilize all such rights on a cost-free and non-exclusive basis; and

2.11.1.3

BIOMIRA and its AFFILIATES shall have the right to have their personnel (not to exceed two individuals) monitor the manufacturing activities of MERCK (and, to the extent permitted, the MERCK SUB-SUPPLIERS) including without limitation attending at facilities of MERCK (and, to the extent permitted, the MERCK SUB-SUPPLIERS). MERCK shall use

commercially reasonable efforts to cause the MERCK SUB-SUPPLIERS to permit BIOMIRA and its AFFILIATES to have the right to have their personnel (not to exceed two individuals) monitor the manufacturing activities of the MERCK SUB-SUPPLIERS including without limitation attending at facilities of the MERCK SUB-SUPPLIERS (including, to the extent reasonable in the circumstances, amending existing and future agreements with the MERCK SUB-SUPPLIERS to permit BIOMIRA and its AFFILIATES to exercise the rights provided for herein). In the event that BIOMIRA and/or its AFFILIATES are precluded from exercising any of the rights provided for in this section 2.11.1.3 in relation to MERCK SUB-SUPPLIERS, MERCK shall, to the extent it is in a position to do so, and upon BIOMIRA’s written request, exercise such rights on behalf of BIOMIRA and its AFFILIATES.

2.11.2

MERCK (directly or through the MERCK SUB-SUPPLIERS) shall have the right under this section 2.11 to be a secondary manufacturer of PRODUCT for BIOMIRA for up to (but, for clarity, not more than) [+] percent ([+]%) of BIOMIRA’s requirements for PRODUCT. The parties may agree, consistent with the principle of multiple sourcing, to vary such percentage (for example, to increase MERCK's secondary manufacturing right to more than [+] percent ([+]%) of BIOMIRA's requirements for PRODUCT), provided that any such variation shall require the unfettered prior written agreement of BIOMIRA and MERCK.

2.11.3

The right of MERCK (directly or through the MERCK SUB-SUPPLIERS) to become a secondary manufacturer of PRODUCT for BIOMIRA shall be subject to any and all contractual commitments of BIOMIRA with third parties and complying with all applicable legal and regulatory requirements;

2.11.4

If MERCK (and/or any MERCK SUB-SUPPLIER) has with respect to PRODUCT for commercial SALE (i.e., not for CLINICAL DEVELOPMENT):

secondary manufacturer of PRODUCT for SALE in the NA TERRITORY and ROW TERRITORY in compliance with the provisions of the CMO AGREEMENT, BIOMIRA shall, subject to then existing third party commitments and provided MERCK fully reimburses BIOMIRA for all substantiated start-up, wind-down and capital expenses necessarily and specifically incurred by BIOMIRA in order to take over manufacturing of one hundred percent (100%) of MERCK’s requirements of PRODUCT (other than those expenses incurred for the manufacturing activities already performed by BIOMIRA pursuant to this AGREEMENT), unless BIOMIRA, acting reasonably, has the ability to use any such existing third party commitment or capital expense for its manufacturing responsibilities under this AGREEMENT, and further provided that any necessary transition period shall be two (2) years (unless otherwise agreed in writing by BIOMIRA and MERCK), permit MERCK to resume such secondary manufacturing activities of PRODUCT. Notwithstanding the foregoing, MERCK agrees to advise BIOMIRA in a timely manner of any material supply difficulties with respect to PRODUCT experienced by MERCK (and/or the MERCK SUB-SUPPLIERS) so that the parties have an opportunity to discuss such difficulties and possible resolutions thereto at an early stage.

2.11.5

Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary in this AGREEMENT (including any QUALITY AGREEMENT) or the COLLABORATION AGREEMENT, all PRODUCT produced by MERCK (and the MERCK SUB-SUPPLIERS) pursuant to this section 2.11 and/or a CMO AGREEMENT must be transferred to BIOMIRA and/or its designated AFFILIATE under the terms of the applicable CMO AGREEMENT and none of MERCK or any MERCK SUB-SUPPLIER shall have any right to otherwise sell, use or retain any such PRODUCT.

2.11.6

Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary in this AGREEMENT (including any QUALITY AGREEMENT) or the COLLABORATION AGREEMENT, MERCK shall not be entitled to rely on any default by MERCK and/or any MERCK SUB-SUPPLIER under or in respect of any CMO AGREEMENT for purposes of alleging or claiming any default or breach by BIOMIRA of its obligations under this AGREEMENT (including any QUALITY AGREEMENT) and/or the COLLABORATION AGREEMENT.

2.11.7

BIOMIRA shall use commercially reasonable efforts to transfer to MERCK such PRODUCT manufacturing know-how of BIOMIRA as is necessary for MERCK to perform such manufacturing activities as may be assigned to MERCK pursuant to this section 2.11 and BIOMIRA and MERCK currently contemplate that the transfer of such manufacturing know-how shall generally take place in accordance with the following timeline:

[+]

[+] DESIGNATES PORTIONS OF THIS DOCUMENT THAT HAVE BEEN OMITTED FOR CONFIDENTIALITY PURPOSES
1160343.13	Execution Copy

In connection with such transfer of manufacturing know-how, BIOMIRA shall provide all assistance reasonably required to ensure a smooth transition of such know-how to MERCK, provided that BIOMIRA and MERCK acknowledge that BIOMIRA’s resources required in connection with such transfer obligations are limited and may at times be required elsewhere. MERCK shall pay BIOMIRA a mutually agreed-upon in writing per diem fee for such assistance on the basis of the amounts set forth in Appendix 4 of the COLLABORATION AGREEMENT (as such amounts shall be adjusted annually to account for normal wage increases) plus all out-of-pocket expenses. For greater certainty, BIOMIRA and MERCK agree that any know-how transfer described in this section 2.11.7 (as well as the test assay transfer described in section 2.2.6) shall not require the conclusion of a separate CMO AGREEMENT but shall be performed in accordance with, solely for the purposes of and subject to the provisions of this AGREEMENT.

2.11.8

Any information received by MERCK, its AFFILIATES and/or third party contract manufacturing organizations (including without limitation MERCK SUB-SUPPLIERS) pursuant to this section 2.11 shall be subject to the confidentiality provisions of Article 3 of this AGREEMENT.

Section 2.12

MANUFACTURING LICENSE

2.12.1

License to Make and Have Made in the TERRITORY

2.12.1.1

BIOMIRA hereby grants to MERCK a royalty-free license (or, where applicable, sublicense) under the BIOMIRA TECHNOLOGY and BIOMIRA MANUFACTURING KNOW-HOW solely to make and have made in the TERRITORY PRODUCT for CLINICAL DEVELOPMENT and SALE by MERCK or its designees pursuant to the COLLABORATION AGREEMENT and in compliance with the licenses, terms and conditions thereof (the "MANUFACTURING LICENSE"); provided, however, that MERCK may not practice the MANUFACTURING LICENSE until such time, if ever, as, with respect to PRODUCT for commercial SALE (i.e., not for CLINICAL DEVELOPMENT):

and BIOMIRA does not provide to MERCK within the twenty (20) day period immediately following BIOMIRA becoming aware of the occurrence of any such event a reasonable plan of corrective action, then, if MERCK desires to practice the MANUFACTURING LICENSE with respect to PRODUCT, MERCK shall notify BIOMIRA in writing of such desire within

[+] DESIGNATES PORTIONS OF THIS DOCUMENT THAT HAVE BEEN OMITTED FOR CONFIDENTIALITY PURPOSES
1160343.13	Execution Copy

the next fifteen (15) days following the expiry of such twenty (20) day period. The parties may from time to time agree in writing to modify the above-referenced conditions with respect to the commencement of MERCK's MANUFACTURING LICENSE.

2.12.1.2

Notwithstanding the foregoing, BIOMIRA agrees to advise MERCK in a timely manner of any material supply difficulties with respect to PRODUCT experienced by BIOMIRA so that the parties have an opportunity to discuss such difficulties and possible resolutions thereto at an early stage with a view to avoiding the application of the MANUFACTURING LICENSE in relation to PRODUCT.

2.12.1.3

[+]

2.12.1.4

During any period in which MERCK is entitled under this section 2.12 to practice the MANUFACTURING LICENSE with respect to PRODUCT, MERCK shall be responsible for all aspects of the manufacture and supply of PRODUCT and, as a result, BIOMIRA shall, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this AGREEMENT (including any QUALITY AGREEMENT), be relieved from all obligations under this AGREEMENT (including any QUALITY AGREEMENT) with respect to such manufacture and supply including without limitation any liability in respect thereof to MERCK or any third party, except in relation to PRODUCT manufactured and supplied by BIOMIRA to MERCK prior to the commencement of any such period and, subject to MERCK's compliance with section 2.12.1.3, in relation to third party contractual obligations to BIOMIRA's suppliers and subcontractors arising prior to MERCK's assumption of such obligations; and

2.12.1.5

only modify the label of PRODUCT to the extent required by the applicable regulatory authority.

2.12.1.6

If at any time after MERCK begins to practice the MANUFACTURING LICENSE with respect to PRODUCT, BIOMIRA has demonstrated to the satisfaction of MERCK, acting

[+] DESIGNATES PORTIONS OF THIS DOCUMENT THAT HAVE BEEN OMITTED FOR CONFIDENTIALITY PURPOSES
1160343.13	Execution Copy

reasonably, the ability once again to manufacture PRODUCT for SALE in the NA TERRITORY and ROW TERRITORY in compliance with the provisions of this AGREEMENT, MERCK shall, subject to then existing third party commitments and provided BIOMIRA fully reimburses MERCK for all substantiated start-up, wind-down and capital expenses necessarily and specifically incurred by MERCK in order to practice the MANUFACTURING LICENSE (other than the manufacturing activities already performed by or on behalf of MERCK pursuant to section 2.11), unless MERCK, acting reasonably, has the ability to use any such existing third party commitment or capital expense for purposes of being a secondary manufacturer as set forth in section 2.11 of this AGREEMENT, and further provided that any necessary transition period shall be two (2) years (unless otherwise agreed by the PARTIES), permit BIOMIRA to resume such manufacturing activities of PRODUCT for SALE in the NA TERRITORY and ROW TERRITORY. Upon such resumption by BIOMIRA, MERCK will no longer be entitled to practice the MANUFACTURING LICENSE with respect to PRODUCT in the TERRITORY (except to the limited extent required to enable MERCK to comply with then existing third party commitments regarding manufacture of PRODUCT) until such time as the conditions described in section 2.12.1.1 above recur and MERCK is thereby entitled to again practice the MANUFACTURING LICENSE. BIOMIRA's right with respect to PRODUCT to resume manufacturing activities shall only apply once.

2.12.2

MERCK Cost of Manufacture. MERCK shall be responsible for of all its costs of manufacture of PRODUCT under section 2.12, including all fixed and variable costs. However, notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary in this AGREEMENT (including any QUALITY AGREEMENT) or the COLLABORATION AGREEMENT, MERCK shall only be entitled to deduct under section 6.3 of the COLLABORATION AGREEMENT (on a per DOSE basis) the lesser of (i) MERCK’s actual costs of manufacture and (ii) the amount that BIOMIRA was paying to a third party CMO at the time that MERCK became entitled to practice the MANUFACTURING LICENSE under this section 2.12.

Section 2.13

Protection in Bankruptcy

The rights and licenses granted to MERCK by BIOMIRA pursuant to section 2.12 are, and shall be deemed to be, for purposes of applicable bankruptcy law (including section 365(n) of the United States Bankruptcy Code), licenses of rights to "intellectual property" (including as such term is defined under section 101(35A) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, as amended from time to time) for purposes of applicable bankruptcy law (including section 365(n) of the United States Bankruptcy Code). The parties agree that MERCK, as a contingent licensee of such rights under this AGREEMENT, shall retain and may fully exercise all of its rights and elections under such applicable bankruptcy law, including but not limited to MERCK's rights to continue to exercise all rights contingently licensed hereunder.

Section 2.14

CMC Development Activities

BIOMIRA and MERCK acknowledge that certain CMC development activities (such as, without limitation, characterization, studies for forced degradation, freeze/thaw stability, and in-use tests as well as the development of a large scale manufacturing process) need to be completed before submission of a BLA for the PRODUCT in accordance with applicable guidelines and any CMC plan approved in accordance with section 3.2.2 of the COLLABORATION AGREEMENT. All as contemplated by and within the parameters set forth in section 3.2.4 of the COLLABORATION AGREEMENT, the Manufacturing/CMC Project Team shall (i) discuss in good faith and agree upon what activities fall under BIOMIRA’s manufacturing responsibilities (i.e. as the manufacturer of PRODUCT that needs MARKET APPROVAL prior to first commercial sale) and (ii) determine defined work packages to be performed by either of the parties, including relevant timelines. To the extent that these activities form part of BIOMIRA’s manufacturing responsibilities under this AGREEMENT, MERCK may, if BIOMIRA so requests in writing, support BIOMIRA in such activities by way of performing some of such required CMC development activities at BIOMIRA’s cost and expense (such costs and expenses to be agreed upon in writing by BIOMIRA and MERCK prior to the commencement of any such work). Upon BIOMIRA’s request to MERCK and agreement in writing between the parties on the scope of work (and a budget related thereto) to be undertaken by MERCK in relation to such CMC development activities, MERCK shall assist BIOMIRA by way of performing the activities allocated to MERCK by BIOMIRA in a timely and professional manner.

Section 2.15

Payment of Taxes

Each of BIOMIRA and MERCK shall be responsible for any and all taxes and other similar levies or charges properly assessed against payments received by such party from the other party under this AGREEMENT. If applicable laws or regulations require that taxes be withheld on such payments, the withholding party will in a timely manner notify the other party in writing specifying the details thereof and shall:

2.15.1

deduct those taxes from the amount of such payment due to the receiving party,

2.15.2

pay the taxes to the proper taxing authority in a timely manner, and

2.15.3

send proof of payment to the receiving party within sixty (60) days following that payment.

The parties agree to cooperate to reduce the amount of any such deductions and to obtain the benefit of any tax treaty with respect to such deductions. Further, the withholding party shall cooperate with the receiving party in obtaining for the receiving party a credit or refund for any such taxes, levies or charges. Neither party shall be required under this concluding paragraph of section 2.13 to act in a manner which is financially detrimental from a taxation perspective to such party.

Section 2.16

No Samples

Unless BIOMIRA and MERCK otherwise agree in writing, no samples of PRODUCT shall be made available by MERCK to any END USERS.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this AGREEMENT, MERCK shall indemnify and hold BIOMIRA (and any affiliated corporation and their respective officers, directors, shareholders, employees and agents) (the "BIOMIRA INDEMNITEES"), free and harmless from any and all claims, demands, liabilities, losses, actions or causes of actions, and any and all expenses associated therewith (including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, reasonable defenses costs and attorney's fees), arising out of or in connection with, or that are the result of, or are otherwise related to: (i) actions and proceedings brought by any regulatory authority against any of the BIOMIRA INDEMNITEES concerning PRODUCT, for or on account of the alleged unapproved or unauthorized introduction by MERCK, its AFFILIATES or their respective distributors, sublicensees and agents of PRODUCT in interstate or intrastate commerce anywhere in the world; (ii) any claim, complaint, suit, proceeding or cause of action against any of the BIOMIRA INDEMNITEES alleging physical injury, including death as a result of the acts or omissions of MERCK, its AFFILIATES or their respective employees, distributors, sublicensees and agents, except to the extent attributable to any one or more of the BIOMIRA INDEMNITEES; (iii) MERCK's, its AFFILIATES' or their respective distributors', sublicensees' or agents' non-compliance with any applicable laws or regulations, except to the extent attributable to any one or more of the BIOMIRA INDEMNITEES; (iv) any failure of MERCK to perform, in whole or in part, any of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent attributable to any one or more of the BIOMIRA INDEMNITEES; (v) the manufacture of PRODUCT by or on behalf of MERCK (including without limitation MERCK SUB-SUPPLIERS), except to the extent attributable to any one or more of the BIOMIRA INDEMNITEES; or (vi) MERCK's, its AFFILIATES' or their respective distributors', sublicensees' or agents' marketing and/or SALE of PRODUCT, except to the extent attributable to any one or more of the BIOMIRA INDEMNITEES.

Section 6.3

Procedure

The indemnified party shall give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party(ies) of any suits, claims or demands by third parties or the indemnified party which may give rise to any loss for which indemnification may be required under this article 6; provided, however, that failure to give such notice shall not impair the obligation of the indemnifying party to provide indemnification hereunder except if and to the extent that such failure materially impairs the ability of the indemnifying party to defend the applicable suit, claim or demand. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to assume the defense and control of any suit, claim or demand of any third party at its own cost and expense; provided, however, that the other party shall have the right to be represented by its own counsel at its own cost in such matters. In the event that the indemnifying party shall decline to assume control of any such suit, claim or demand, the party entitled to indemnification shall be entitled to assume such control, conduct the defense of, and settle such suit, claim or action, all at the sole cost and expense of the indemnifying party. Neither the indemnifying party nor the indemnified party shall settle or dispose of any such matter in any manner which would adversely impact the rights or interests of the other party without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Each party shall cooperate with the other party and its counsel in the course of the defense of any such suit, claim or demand, such cooperation to include using reasonable efforts to provide or make available documents, information and witnesses.

Section 7.5

Waivers

No waiver of any term, provision, or condition of this AGREEMENT, whether by conduct or otherwise, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be construed as a further or continuing waiver of any such term, provision, or condition of this AGREEMENT unless reduced to writing signed by an authorized representative of each party.

Section 7.6

Applicable Law

This Agreement shall be construed under the substantive laws of England, without reference to its conflicts of laws provisions.

Section 7.7

Dispute Resolution

Should any dispute arise between the parties concerning this AGREEMENT, the parties agree to first attempt to resolve the dispute in good faith. If within fifteen (15) days of one party providing written notice of such dispute to the other party such dispute is not resolved, then the parties agree to continue to attempt to resolve the dispute in good faith through meetings between a member of MERCK's Pharmaceutical Executive Management Board and the President of BIOMIRA before resorting to any other forum for a remedy. If resolution of the dispute is not reached between the Presidents within twenty (20) days of either party submitting such dispute in writing to the Presidents, then the parties shall within the next following fifteen (15) day period initiate binding arbitration in London, England under the rules of the International Chamber of Commerce. The party desiring arbitration shall nominate one (1) arbitrator and shall notify the other party in writing of such nomination. Such other party shall, within ten (10) days after receiving such notice, nominate an arbitrator and the two (2) arbitrators shall select a third arbitrator of the arbitration tribunal to act jointly with them. The parties will act reasonably and in good faith to select arbitrators who are objective and who are suitably qualified by education or professional experience to deal with the matters which are the subject of the arbitration.

Section 7.8

Assignment

The parties agree that this AGREEMENT is personal in nature and, except for transfer by BIOMIRA to any of BIOMIRA's AFFILIATES, this AGREEMENT may not be assigned or otherwise transferred, nor may any right or obligations hereunder be assigned or transferred directly or indirectly by either party, whether voluntary, by operation of law or otherwise, without the written consent of the other party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. In connection with BIOMIRA determining whether to consent to an assignment, the parties agree that BIOMIRA shall be deemed to be acting reasonably if it withholds its consent in circumstances where the proposed assignee is not a corporation of equal or greater financial resources, marketing strength and expertise (including in the cancer area), and stature in the pharmaceutical industry as MERCK. Any purported assignment in violation of this section 7.8 shall be void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may, without such consent, assign or novate this
