2. | Services
2.1 | The Parties agree that Novotech will provide the services to the Sponsor as set out in Schedule 1 hereof (Services) for the Professional Fees and contingent upon timely payment of the undisputed Security Deposits, Hosting Fees, and Pass Through Costs (as defined in clause 3.1 below).
2.2 | For clarity, if Parties have executed a LOI/SUA in relation to the Study, the activities conducted under such agreement including out-of-scope activities approved by the Sponsor shall have been reconciled under the Schedule to this Project Agreement.
3. | Key Assumptions
3.1 | The Budget for the Services (which includes the Total Direct Fees, estimated expenses and estimated pass through costs to third parties which may include without limitation vendors (such as alliance partner CROs), sites and investigators (Pass Through Costs) and is attached at Schedule 2) is derived from the Study Assumptions and Responsibilities set out in Schedule 1 hereof (together, Key Assumptions).

3.2 | The Parties agree that the Key Assumptions accurately reflect the Study parameters and the Services to be performed under this Project Agreement as at the date of this Project Agreement.
3.3 | If the Sponsor instructs Novotech that there are changes to the Key Assumptions or additional tasks are required to provide the Services as contemplated as at the date of this Project Agreement, Novotech will revise the Budget to reflect such changes and seek Sponsor’s approval of the same. Once the changes to the Key Assumptions and corresponding Budget amendments are agreed, the Parties will execute a Change Order to amend the Project Agreement to reflect the agreed changes.
3.4 | Each Party agrees that time is of the essence for the Study and will align their objectives and timing for the Study.
4. | Payment
4.1 | Payment and invoicing terms are included in the MSA. Invoices to Sponsor will be sent to:

4.5 | Change in Scope

| (a) | As set out in clause 4.3 of the MSA, the Parties have agreed to use an informal change in scope process whereby an authorised representative of the Sponsor may approve additional or amended services up to an agreed threshold value by email via the process set out below.
| (b) | If additional services are requested by the Sponsor that result in a change in scope or budget increase of less than or equal to AUD $100,000.00 (Agreed Change Value):

| i. | Novotech will submit in writing the additional or amended services and a cost estimate of those additional or amended services (Change in Scope) for approval by Sponsor;
| ii. | Sponsor will advise their authorized representative who is authorized to approve the Change in Scope via email;
| iii. | Upon approval by an authorized person of the Sponsor, the Change in Scope is agreed as binding on the Parties such that Novotech is authorized by the Sponsor to commence those services and Sponsor agrees to be responsible and liable for the costs associated with such Change in Scope;

| (c) | The approved Change in Scope will be incorporated into a Change Order to the Project Agreement (as defined in the MSA) upon the earlier of either: (i) if any change to the Services has reached the Agreed Change Value (or cumulatively adding up to that value); or (ii) approximately 3 months from the commencement of work of the earliest Change In Scope which is not yet incorporated into a Change Order; or (iii) upon completion of Services; or (iv) if the Master Agreement and/or Project Agreement terminates for any reason. Upon execution of the Change Order, Novotech will invoice accordingly for the Change in Scope.
| (d) | The Parties agree to negotiate any proposed Change in Scope expeditiously and in good faith so as not to impact the progress of the Services or cause administrative burden to either Party.
4.6 | Inflation

| (a) | Once in every twelve (12) calendar months, on the anniversary of the effective date of each Project Agreement, Novotech may, with 30 days’ written notice, increase all remaining Professional Fees under that Project Agreement by the weighted average of the applicable Consumer Price Index of the country(ies) where the Services are being performed (proportionate to the scope of Services being provided in each country), or four percent (4%), whichever is lower. Such increase(s) shall be applied on a cumulative basis.

5. | Payment Schedule
5.1 | If the Professional Fees are unitised or are at agreed time and materials rates as per Schedule 3, Novotech will issue the Sponsor monthly invoices for the Professional Fees rendered during the month.
5.2 | In the event that there are some sites that are not initiated, then any fees for sites initiated, will be based on an adjusted number of sites actually initiated. Sites initiated means sites fully open for enrolment with all set up activities complete.

Tables, Listings and Figures: The study data will be presented in a set of tables, listings and figures (TLFs) that will form the basis of the analyses. Novotech will prepare the SAP and the corresponding TLF shells based on the Novotech SAP template (unless stated otherwise). The draft SAP and TLF shells will be distributed for sponsor review and will be finalized after two review cycles. The SAP must be approved before the programming of TLFs can commence and the SAP has to be approved before the study can be unblinded (randomized studies only). Novotech will prepare the SAS® programs that will generate the TLF files. A repeat TLF is defined as an output that can be generated by an existing SAS® program. Please note that the TLF counts noted above are based on the information that was available at the start of the project and may change based on the final protocol and required scope of the analysis. A final reconciliation of the budgeted TLFs assumed above against the required TLF will be performed prior to the finalization of the SAP.
Dry Run: A dry run is an analysis of data that is conducted prior to any formal database locks/cut-off dates to ensure that the statistical programming and review activities have been completed. The primary aim of a dry run is to reduce the review timelines the milestone database lock/cut-off. Dry runs show what the actual TLFs will look like from a formatting/lay-out perspective, whilst also allowing for additional data review activities. Dry runs are generally performed in a blinded manner using dummy treatment and population assignments. Novotech will perform the dry run(s) in accordance with the requirements specified in the statistical analysis plan. The TLFs will be prepared based on the analyses described in the SAP and the corresponding output shells and will go through similar review procedures as for an official analysis. The SAS® programs that are prepared for dry runs will be re-used for the final analysis after the necessary modifications have been made. Novotech will prepare the SAS® programs that will generate the dry run TLF files. The draft TLFs will be validated and reviewed by the assigned statistician prior to being released to the sponsor for review and will be finalized after the second review cycle. Please note that the budget is based on the assumption that the SAS® programs can be re-used for the final analysis, and as such only makes provision for the time required to generate and review the TLFs. In the event that there are major updates to TLFs following dry run, the budget will be adjusted according to the actual scope of the changes.
Novotech will prepare a CDISC-compliant ADaM and SDTM data package(s) that will include: ADaM: Analysis-level SAS® datasets and transport files and the define.mxl file including the supporting Analysis Data Reviewer's Guide (ADRG), as well as the Pinnacle21 validation reports. The ADaM specification development activities will start after the statistical analysis plan have been approved, and programming will start once the SDTM datasets have been developed. SDTM: Domain-level SAS® datasets and transport files and the define.mxl file including the supporting annotated case report form (blankcrf.pdf) and the Study Data Reviewer's Guide (SDRG), as well as the Pinnacle21 validation reports. The SDTM specification development activities will start after the case report forms have been finalized, but programming will only start once at least 25% of the planned subjects have been enrolled. The final ADaM and SDTM data package will be sent together with the TLF package. The ADaM and SDTM data package will be based on the ADaM and SDTM Implementation Guide and Coded Terminology versions decided at the start of the study. If required, the ADaM and SDTM specifications can be reviewed by the sponsor prior to the start of programming. ADaM and SDTM are the required standards for data submission to FDA (U.S.) and PMDA (Japan).
