API, MATERIALS & EQUIPMENT

3.1 The APIs and Raw Materials.

A. TXMD shall be responsible for establishing a source of supply of the APIs. TXMD, at its option, shall enable QPharma to place orders for the API’s from such source of supply. QPharma shall be responsible for inspecting and releasing adequate quantities of the APIs and Raw Materials as necessary to meet the Firm Commitment, unless otherwise agreed to by the parties in writing. QPharma shall not be liable for any delay in delivery of Product if (i) TXMD is unable to obtain, in a timely manner, a particular API or (ii) QPharma is unable to obtain, in a timely manner, a particular API through its placement of orders therefor from TXMD’s source of supply or Raw Material necessary for Processing and (iii) QPharma placed orders for such API or Raw Material promptly following receipt of TXMD’s Firm Commitment. In the event that any API or Raw Material becomes subject to purchase lead time beyond the Firm Commitment time frame, the parties will negotiate in good faith an appropriate amendment to this Agreement. TXMD shall reimburse to QPharma its cost for the APIs. QPharma shall provide a credit to TXMD in the amount of any credit received by QPharma from an API supplier resulting from a pricing agreement with such supplier, with such credits to be applied to the next invoice issued thereafter to TXMD and successive invoices until fully expended. In order to facilitate the ordering and delivery of initial supplies of APIs to QPharma, TXMD, in consultation with QPharma, may purchase supplies of APIs for delivery to QPharma. Further, in order to facilitate the timely manufacture of Product for the Firm Commitment, QPharma shall maintain a safety stock of APIs and Raw Materials. Such safety stock shall be in an amount mutually agreed to by the Parties. TXMD shall be responsible for payment of the purchase price of any such APIs so ordered by it for delivery to QPharma.

6

B. In certain instances, TXMD may require a specific supplier, manufacturer or vendor (“Vendor”) to be used for a Raw Material. In such an event occurring after the date of this Agreement, such Vendor will be identified in the Specifications. If the cost of such Raw Material from any such Vendor is greater than QPharma’s costs for the same Raw Material of equal quality from other vendors, QPharma shall add the difference between QPharma’s cost of such Raw Material and the Vendor’s cost of the Raw Material to the Unit Pricing. TXMD will be responsible for all costs associated with qualification of any Vendor specifically required to be used upon written instruction from TXMD, which Vendor has not been previously qualified by QPharma.

C. In the event of (i) a Specification change for any reason, (ii) obsolescence of any API or Raw Material or (iii) termination or expiration of this Agreement, TXMD shall bear the cost of any unused API or Raw Materials (including packaging), so long as QPharma purchased such API and Raw Materials in quantities consistent with TXMD’s most recent Firm Commitment and the vendor’s minimum purchase obligations. Such APIs and Raw Material shall be the property of TXMD upon payment therefor.

3.2 Supply of Materials.

A. TXMD shall supply to QPharma for Processing, at TXMD’s cost, all TXMD-supplied Materials set forth on Attachment C, if any, in quantities sufficient to meet TXMD’s requirements for Product. TXMD shall deliver such items and associated certificates of analysis to the Facility no later than [***] ([***]) days before the Processing Date. TXMD’s failure to fulfill the foregoing obligations in this Section 3.2 shall not by itself give rise to a cause of action in QPharma or a right by it to terminate this Agreement. However, QPharma shall not be held liable for a delayed Processing Date related to TXMD’s own delay in delivering TXMD supplied Materials and associated certificates to the Facility. TXMD shall be responsible at its expense for securing any necessary DEA, export or import, similar clearances, permits or certifications required in respect of such supply. QPharma shall use such items solely for Processing. Prior to delivery of any such items, TXMD shall provide to QPharma a copy of all associated material safety data sheets, safe handling instructions and health and environmental information and any Regulatory certifications or authorizations that may be required under Applicable Laws with respect thereto, and shall promptly provide any updates thereto.

B. Following receipt of TXMD-supplied Materials, QPharma shall inspect, test and release such items employing such measures as are set forth in the Specifications. QPharma will receive, handle, store and use all TXMD-supplied Materials in compliance with all Applicable Laws and labeled storage requirements, or lacking labeled storage requirement, the written instructions of TXMD, as agreed to by QPharma, such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld. In the event that QPharma detects a nonconformity with Specifications, QPharma shall give TXMD prompt notice of such nonconformity. QPharma shall not be liable for any defects in TXMD-supplied Materials, or in Product resulting from defective TXMD-supplied Materials, unless QPharma failed to properly perform the foregoing obligations. QPharma shall follow TXMD’s reasonable written instructions in respect of return or disposal of defective TXMD-supplied Materials, at TXMD’s cost.

7

C. TXMD shall retain title to TXMD-supplied Materials at all times and shall bear the risk of loss thereof, except for losses to the extent due to the negligent acts or omissions of QPharma or QPharma’s failure to follow storage and handling requirements or mutually agreed to written instructions of TXMD, in each case, subject to Article 14.

3.3 Artwork and Labeling. TXMD shall provide or approve, prior to the procurement of applicable Raw Materials, all artwork, advertising and labeling information necessary for Processing, if any. Such artwork, advertising and labeling information is and shall remain the exclusive property of TXMD, and TXMD shall be solely responsible for the content thereof. Hence, TXMD will be responsible for the artwork and labelling information communicated to QPharma for Processing and ensure itself that the latter comply with provided text and relevant applicable laws and regulations prevailing in the Territory. Such artwork, advertising and labeling information or any reproduction thereof may not be used by QPharma in any manner other than performing its obligations hereunder.

3.4 TXMD Equipment. QPharma hereby acknowledges that the TXMD Equipment is the sole and exclusive property of TXMD, and is in the possession of QPharma. During the Term, except as set forth below, QPharma shall be entitled to use the TXMD Equipment in the performance of its obligations to TXMD pursuant to this Agreement. QPharma (i) shall mark the TXMD Equipment so as to identify it as the property of TXMD, (ii) shall safeguard the TXMD Equipment with the same degree of care as it uses in connection with the safeguarding of its own equipment and (iii) shall be responsible for the proper operation, maintenance and repair of the TXMD Equipment.

QPharma shall not move the TXMD Equipment from its current location without the advance written consent of TXMD. QPharma shall not grant a security interest in, use as collateral or otherwise encumber the TXMD Equipment in any way, or suffer the placement of a lien or other security device upon the TXMD Equipment. Upon request of TXMD, whether at the expiration of the Term or prior thereto, QPharma shall promptly make the TXMD Equipment ready for removal by TXMD or its designees, and shall grant access to TXMD and its designees to QPharma facilities for the purpose of such removal. During the Term, in the event, and to the extent, there exists capacity in the use of the TXMD Equipment in excess of its use to fulfill purchase orders of TXMD, QPharma may use the TXMD Equipment for its intended purpose in the performance of its manufacturing obligations for The Population Council, Inc. or its designee.

3.5 Additional Manufacturing Line. In order to plan for and meet potential demand for the Product in excess of QPharma’s current capacity, the Parties will prepare and reasonably agree to a manufacturing capacity expansion plan within ninety (90) days of the date of this Agreement, such plan to address the actions to be taken, the equipment to be purchased and installed, and financial responsibility therefor, along with a timeline, headcount plan, budget and assignment of responsibilities in the implementation of a second manufacturing line and other capacity improvements, all as set forth in such plan.

4.4 QPharma’s Cancellation of Purchase Orders. Notwithstanding Section 4.5, QPharma reserves the right to cancel all, or any part of, a Purchase Order upon written notice to TXMD, and QPharma shall have no further obligations or liability with respect to such Purchase Order, if TXMD refuses or fails to timely supply conforming TXMD-supplied Materials in accordance with Section 3.2. Any such cancellation of Purchase Orders shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement by QPharma. QPharma shall use reasonable efforts to re-schedule Processing reflected on such Purchase Order promptly after conforming TXMD-supplied Materials are delivered to QPharma.

9

4.5 TXMD’s Modification or Cancellation of Purchase Orders. TXMD may modify the delivery date or quantity of Product in a Purchase Order only by submitting a written change order to QPharma at least [***] ([***]) days in advance of the earliest Processing Date covered by such change order. Such change order shall be effective and binding against QPharma only upon the written approval of QPharma. QPharma shall endeavor in good faith to mitigate the costs of such change order, but TXMD shall be responsible to QPharma for unavoidable costs, including those resulting from non-cancellable contracts entered into by QPharma in good faith.

4.6 Unplanned Delay or Elimination of Processing. QPharma shall use commercially reasonable efforts to meet the Purchase Orders, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

After QPharma completes Processing of a Batch, QPharma shall also provide TXMD or its designee with QPharma’s certificate of analysis, certificate of compliance and Qualified Person release for such Batch. Issuance of a certificate of analysis, executed batch records and a certificate of compliance by QPharma constitutes release of the Batch by QPharma to TXMD. TXMD shall be responsible for final release of Product to the market.

5.2 Testing; Rejection. No later than [***] days after receipt of the Batch (“Review Period”), TXMD or its designee shall notify QPharma whether the Batch conforms to Specifications. Upon receipt of notice from TXMD that a Batch meets Specifications, or upon failure of TXMD to respond by the end of the Review Period, the Batch shall be deemed accepted by TXMD and TXMD shall have no right to reject such Batch other than for defects which existed at the time of delivery and were not discovered or discoverable in the exercise of reasonable care (“Latent Defects”). For the avoidance of doubt, (i) Batches failing to meet Specifications at the time of delivery due to Latent Defects may be rejected, if at all, only upon notice to QPharma within [***] ([***]) days following the date on which such Latent Defect was discovered or should have been discovered in the exercise of reasonable care and (ii) in no event may TXMD reject Product after such Product’s expiration date. If TXMD or its designee timely notifies QPharma in writing (an “Exception Notice”) that a Batch does not conform to the Specifications or otherwise does not meet the warranty set forth in Section 12.1(A), whether due to a Latent Defect or otherwise (“Defective Product”), and provides a sample of the alleged Defective Product, QPharma shall conduct an appropriate investigation in its discretion to determine whether or not it agrees with TXMD that Product is Defective Product and to determine the cause of any nonconformity. If QPharma agrees that Product is Defective Product and determines that the cause of nonconformity is attributable to QPharma’s failure to perform the Processing in accordance with the Specifications (“QPharma Defective Processing”), then Section 5.4 shall apply. For avoidance of doubt, where the cause of nonconformity cannot be determined or assigned, it shall be deemed not QPharma Defective Processing. For the avoidance of doubt, the Processing of any Batch that does not proceed to completion or any Batch that does not pass release testing by QPharma shall be treated as Defective Product resulting from QPharma Defective Processing. In such case, the remedies set forth in Section 5.4 shall apply.

10

5.3 Discrepant Results. If the parties disagree as to whether Product is Defective Product and/or whether the cause of the nonconformity is QPharma Defective Processing, and this is not resolved within [***] days of the Exception Notice date, the parties shall cause a mutually acceptable independent third party to review records, test data and to perform comparative tests and/or analyses on samples of the alleged Defective Product and its components, including TXMD-supplied Materials. The independent party’s results as to whether or not Product is Defective Product and the cause of any nonconformity shall be final and binding. Unless otherwise agreed to by the parties in writing, the costs associated with such testing and review shall be borne by QPharma if Product is Defective Product attributable to QPharma Defective Processing, and by TXMD in all other circumstances. TXMD will be apprised in writing of all Defective Product investigations executed by QPharma on TXMD’s materials/products, including Product and TXMD-supplied Materials, as well as final investigation outcome and conclusion(s).

5.4 Defective Processing. QPharma shall, at TXMD’s option, either (A) replace at its cost another Batch of Product (as a replacement for any Batch of Defective Product attributable to QPharma Defective Processing) using TXMD-supplied Materials provided at QPharma’s cost, if any such items are required or (B) credit any payments made by TXMD for such Batch. THE OBLIGATION OF QPHARMA TO REPLACE QPHARMA DEFECTIVE PROCESSING IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE SPECIFICATIONS OR CREDIT PAYMENTS MADE BY TXMD FOR DEFECTIVE PRODUCT ATTRIBUTABLE TO QPHARMA DEFECTIVE PROCESSING SHALL BE TXMD’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FOR DEFECTIVE PRODUCT (APART FROM RECALL COSTS SET FORTH IN SECTION 9.6, AND IS IN LIEU OF ANY OTHER WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED).

ARTICLE 6

6.3 Subcontracting. QPharma may utilize third parties to provide any part of the Processing only with the prior written approval of TXMD, provided that the foregoing will not apply to generally available goods and services or to subcontracting to QPharma Affiliates. If TXMD approves a subcontractor, then QPharma shall enter a written agreement with such subcontractor that enables QPharma to comply with its obligations under this Agreement and places such subcontractors under obligations of confidentiality, non-use and intellectual property ownership no less burdensome than those set forth herein and applicable to QPharma. QPharma will oversee all services performed by any subcontractor, and will be responsible for such services as if such services were performed by QPharma. QPharma shall remain liable for the performance of its subcontractors under this Agreement. The use of subcontractors shall not relieve QPharma of any responsibility under this Agreement.

The foregoing prices include a recovery for depreciation expenses of Facility improvements made by QPharma. Recovery of these depreciation expenses will end upon expiration of the depreciation recovery schedule. TXMD will purchase a minimum of [***] units of Product per Contract Year.

The foregoing prices include the purchase by, and payment for, both of the Product’s APIs by QPharma. If TXMD supplies one or both of the Product’s APIs to QPharma at no cost, or QPharma procures one or both APIs and passes the cost through to TXMD, the foregoing prices will be adjusted downward, as reasonably agreed to by QPharma and TXMD.

These prices will be applied to cumulative purchased by TXMD together with its Affiliates and licensees, if any. The unit price for which QPharma will sell Product to TXMD, its Affiliates and their licensees during the Initial Pricing Period will be as set forth in the table above in accordance with the cumulative quantities ordered by and on behalf of such parties during each Contract Year. Within [***] ([***]) days following (i) the end of each Contract Year or (ii) the expiration or termination of the Agreement, as the case may be, QPharma shall determine the total quantity of Product ordered by or on behalf of TXMD, its Affiliates and their respective licensees during the prior Contract Year (or portion of a Contract Year in the event of a termination) and issue a credit memo or refund to TXMD, at its option, in such amount as may be necessary to true up amounts actually paid by TXMD with the prices to which TXMD, its Affiliates and their respective licensees were entitled during such Contract Year based on their actual cumulative orders.

TXMD and QPharma will revisit this yield-based pricing scheme after the first commercial Batch of Product as defined in Section 7.1A.
