Scope of Agreement. This Supply Agreement covers (a) the Manufacture and supply of Supplied Product by AstraZeneca or its Affiliates to Viela, and the purchase of such Supplied Product by Viela or its Affiliates and (b) the performance by AstraZeneca or its Affiliates of the Services.

2.2.

2.3.

Requirements. During the Supply Term, Viela shall purchase, and AstraZeneca shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, Manufacture and supply, all of Viela’s requirements for Supplied Product in accordance with Clauses 3 and 4 for commercialization of the Supplied Product in the Territory; provided that, subject to Clause 20.1, Viela may purchase Product from a Third Party: (a) in the event that AstraZeneca is unable to supply Product in accordance with Clauses 3 and 4 due to Force Majeure, or (b) in the event of any material Shortfall or Non-Conforming Product (including any Additional Quantities, if applicable) that AstraZeneca elects not to make up or replace in accordance with Clause 10.

2.4.

Specifications; Change Control.

(a)

AstraZeneca shall Manufacture or cause its Affiliate to Manufacture each Supplied Product in accordance with all Applicable Laws (including cGMP), Regulatory Approvals, the Commercial Quality Agreement, and the Specification for such Supplied Product.

(b)

Procedures governing changes to the Specification or changes in the Manufacturing process, Manufacturing facility(ies) or Materials used by AstraZeneca to Manufacture any Supplied Product (each a “Manufacturing Change”) shall be as set out in the Commercial Quality Agreement. Any Manufacturing Change shall be implemented in accordance with the provisions of the Commercial Quality Agreement.

(c)

If a Regulatory Authority requires any Manufacturing Change or AstraZeneca acting in good faith, determines that any Manufacturing Change is otherwise required to comply with regulatory requirements (each a “Required Manufacturing Change”), the Parties shall, each acting reasonably and in good faith, endeavor to agree promptly on an action plan to implement such change; provided that if Viela, acting in good faith, disagrees with any AstraZeneca determination that a Manufacturing Change is required, AstraZeneca shall consider Viela’s comments in good faith. The costs and expenses of implementing such Required Manufacturing Change shall be borne solely by Viela; provided that, if and to the extent such Required Manufacturing Change is being made for the benefit of Supplied Product and other products that are Manufactured by AstraZeneca then Viela shall bear an equitable proportion of such costs and expenses.

(d)

From time to time during the Supply Term, Viela may request a Manufacturing Change other than a Required Manufacturing Change and AstraZeneca will consider any such requests in good faith. If AstraZeneca provides consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), it will provide Viela with an estimate of the timeframe and costs and expenses for implementation of the change, including whether any such costs and expenses (or a portion thereof) shall be [***]. If the Manufacturing Change is implemented, unless otherwise agreed, Viela shall bear the costs and expenses of the change. Where a Manufacturing Change is required by Viela and such change results in rendering obsolete any inventory of Supplied Product or Materials used in the Manufacture of the Supplied Product, Viela shall bear the costs and expenses of suchwrite-off (including waste disposal costs) for Supplied Product and Materials that AstraZeneca is not able to utilize elsewhere; provided that AstraZeneca will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to utilize such Materials and Viela will provide AstraZeneca with reasonable assistance in doing so.

If AstraZeneca requests such a Manufacturing Change, unless otherwise agreed, AstraZeneca shall bear the costs and expenses of AstraZeneca implementing such change and the reasonable and verifiable costs (including with respect to the establishment of comparability) incurred by Viela arising as a direct and unavoidable result of such change; provided that such costs shall not include any costs incurred by Viela with respect to supplementary regulatory filings arising from such change.

(f)

From time to time during the Supply Term, AstraZeneca may give notice to Viela that AstraZeneca intends to change the geographic location of the Manufacturing site(s) used by AstraZeneca to Manufacture a Supplied Product (a “Facility Change”). Unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties, such notice must be provided to Viela at least thirty six (36) months prior to the anticipated Facility Change. Any

Facility Change will be made in AstraZeneca’s sole discretion; provided that in implementing a Facility Change, AstraZeneca shall use its reasonable best efforts to minimize any adverse impact on the Biologics License Application or Regulatory Approval(s) for the Product.AstraZeneca shall be responsible for the technology transfer and other costs and expenses of AstraZeneca implementing a Facility Change and the reasonable and verifiable costs (including with respect to the establishment of comparability) incurred by Viela arising as a direct and unavoidable result of such Facility Change, in each case pursuant to this Clause 2.4(f); provided that such costs shall not include any costs incurred by Viela with respect to supplementary regulatory filings arising from such change. For the sake of clarity, a Facility Change under this Clause 2.4(f) shall not be considered a Manufacturing Change for purposes of Clause 2.4(e).

2.5.

For any services that are required during the Term of this Agreement, AstraZeneca and Viela shall negotiate a services statement of work, to be executed by both Parties prior to commencement of any such services, detailing the Services to be provided and the Services Fees payable in connection with one or more such activities (each, a “Services SOW”).

4.1.

Purchase Orders.Viela shall, together with its quarterly Rolling Forecast, deliver to AstraZeneca a written Purchase Order in respect of each Firm Order for which Viela has not previously submitted a Purchase Order. Viela will accompany its quarterly or monthly updates of the Rolling Forecast with new Purchase Orders for each new Firm Order from the immediately preceding Firm Forecast Period. All Purchase Orders for the Products must be for at least the Minimum Order Quantity and shall only be submitted in multiples of full lot quantities. All Purchase Orders must specify the required quantity of the Products by SKU; and the requested delivery date,provided, that the date on which the Products are to be delivered is no earlier than the third month after the date on which such Purchase Order was placed.

4.2.

AstraZeneca’s Fulfillment of Purchase Orders. Provided that a Purchase Order corresponds with the Firm Order, as set out in the applicable Rolling Forecast current at the time of the Purchase Order, and is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Supply Agreement, then AstraZeneca shall accept the Purchase Order and in such acceptance shall specify the estimated delivery date (which date shall fall within the delivery month requested by Viela in accordance with Clause 4.1).

4.3.

Purchase Order Acceptance and Confirmation. A Purchase Order that corresponds with the Firm Order shall be deemed accepted unless a written rejection by AstraZeneca is received by Viela within five (5) business days after delivery of the Purchase Order to AstraZeneca. AstraZeneca shall communicate its acceptance or rejection of a Purchase Order by way of email confirmation (or by such other written means as AstraZeneca may elect from time to time).Viela shall not submit any Purchase Order for quantities of Supplied Product in excess of the Firm Order or amend the quantities included in the Rolling Forecast by more than the permitted Modified Amount without AstraZeneca’s prior written consent. If AstraZeneca consents to any such increase in quantities of Supplied Product (an “Additional Quantity”) it shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to deliver such Additional Quantity. Where AstraZeneca accepts the Purchase Order, such confirmation will include the estimated delivery date; otherwise, for Purchase Orders deemed accepted, the delivery date will be one month after the delivery date for the prior Purchase Order issued by Viela. All affirmatively accepted or deemed accepted Purchase Orders shall be binding upon AstraZeneca and Viela. For clarity, AstraZeneca shall not be required to accept any Purchase Order in excess of the Firm Order amount, or that does not conform to the requirements in terms of lead time or Minimum Order Quantity (or maximum order quantity) as may be set forth in the Rolling Forecast.

4.4.

Terms and Conditions. Each Purchase Order shall be the subject of a separate contract of sale between AstraZeneca and Viela. All contracts between the Parties for the commercial supply of the Products shall be on the terms and conditions set out in this Supply Agreement (and the Commercial Quality Agreement).

If for any reason Viela fails to arrange for its carrier to collect such Supplied Product from the Delivery Location within this timeframe then delivery will be deemed to have occurred and AstraZeneca may, at its option either: (a) acting as agent for Viela and at Viela’s cost and expense, arrange for a delivery company to collect such Supplied Products from the Delivery Location for delivery to any premises of Viela or (b) store the Supplied Products until Viela collects them and Viela shall be liable for all related costs and expenses (including, storage and insurance), and for the avoidance of doubt, all risk of loss pursuant to Clause 6..

5.2.

Delivery Date. AstraZeneca shall make Supplied Product under accepted Purchase Orders available to Viela within five (5) business days of the agreed delivery date.

5.7.

Packaging. AstraZeneca shall package the Supplied Product in accordance with its customary practices, unless otherwise specified in writing by Viela, including its customary primary packaging and an appropriate shipping container, or such other containers or packaging as the Parties may agree from time to time, and prior to shipment, AstraZeneca shall perform (or, subject to Clause 2.4, have a Third Party perform) release testing for the Supplied Product pursuant to the applicable Specification, cGMP, and the Commercial Quality Agreement.

(a)

Viela may disclose AstraZeneca’s Confidential Information set forth on Schedule 5 (which Schedule shall be updated by mutual written agreement of the Parties prior to each proposed disclosure of such Confidential Information by Viela) to its commercialization partners and potential commercialization partners who are subject to obligations of confidentiality with respect to such Confidential Information at least as stringent as those set forth in this Agreement (which may include, at AstraZeneca’s sole option, execution by such third party of additional confidentiality agreements), provided that AstraZeneca has given its prior written consent to the form and content of such proposed disclosure;

In any event, the Party requested or required to disclose such Confidential Information may furnish it as required by such valid court or governmental order or Applicable Law (subject to any such protective order or other appropriate remedy) without liability hereunder; provided, that such Party furnishes only that portion of the Confidential Information which such Party is advised by an opinion of its counsel is legally required, and such Party exercises reasonable efforts to obtain reliable assurances that a protective order or other comparable confidential treatment will be accorded such Confidential Information; and

(c)

each Party may disclose the other Party’s Confidential Information to any Governmental Authority or Regulatory Authority to the extent necessary to obtain the approval of any such Governmental Authority or Regulatory Authority to Manufacture and supply any Supplied Product or perform any Services pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Supply Agreement; provided, however, that reasonable measures shall be taken to assure confidential treatment of such Confidential Information.

13.7.

Intellectual Property.

(a)

Intellectual Property Rights arising in connection with the activities undertaken pursuant to this Supply Agreement (“Arising IPR”) shall be owned according to inventorship; provided that to the extent that any Arising IPR conceived, developed or generated by AstraZeneca or an Affiliate of AstraZeneca relates exclusively to the Product, such Arising IPR will be owned by Viela (“New Viela IPR”). AstraZeneca shall promptly disclose to Viela allKnow-How that relates exclusively to the Product, and Viela shall have the sole discretion in pursuing Patents or other intellectual property rights protection for suchKnow-How. AstraZeneca hereby assigns to Viela all right, title and interest of AstraZeneca in any New Viela IPR.

(b)

All Background IPR of AstraZeneca or its Affiliates shall remain vested in and the exclusive property of AstraZeneca, its Affiliates or its licensors, as applicable. With the exception of New Viela IPR, all Arising IPR conceived, developed or generated by AstraZeneca or an Affiliate of AstraZeneca will be owned by AstraZeneca.

(c)

Viela, on behalf of itself or its Affiliates, hereby grants to AstraZeneca and its Affiliates a worldwide,non-exclusive, royalty-free,non-transferable license and a right of reference and use under Viela IP, with the right to grant further licenses and sublicenses or rights of reference and use to any Affiliate, AZ Supplier or subcontractor, to the extent necessary during the Supply Term for AstraZeneca and its Affiliates to perform their obligations hereunder.

13.8.

MedImmune Manufacturing Technology. Notwithstanding anything in this Supply Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall AstraZeneca be obligated to disclose any MedImmune Manufacturing Technology to Viela, except as provided in this Clause 13.8. During the Supply Term, upon Viela’s reasonable request, and at Viela’s sole cost and expense, AstraZeneca shall provide Viela one or more letters providing Viela a right of reference to the relevant filing with a Regulatory Authority, or shall otherwise provide Viela via such other methods as may be available, to allow Viela to reference with the applicable Regulatory Authority the relevant CMC Data for the Product solely to the extent necessary for Viela to obtain or maintain Regulatory Approval for the Product. Such other methods may entail AstraZeneca providing such CMC Data directly to such Regulatory Authority (to the extent permitted by Applicable Law) or, at AstraZeneca’s sole election, directly to Viela; provided that Viela shall permit AstraZeneca to seek any and all measures available to protect the confidentiality of and AstraZeneca’s interests in and to such CMC Data, including, if such information is provided directly to Viela, restricting access to such CMC Data through a secure data room or portal to specified members of Viela’s regulatory affairs and quality assurance departments who need to know such CMC Data in order to prepare, submit, obtain, or maintain a BLA or Regulatory Approval for the Product and who have entered into confidentiality agreements with Viela and/or AstraZeneca in a form reasonably acceptable to AstraZeneca, and Viela shall provide full cooperation and assistance to AstraZeneca in seeking to obtain such protection. If required by AstraZeneca, the cover letter for any Regulatory Approval application submitted by Viela in connection with this Supply

Agreement shall instruct the applicable Regulatory Authority to direct any questions with respect to the CMC Data for the Product directly to AstraZeneca. If, in connection with obtaining or maintaining any Regulatory Approval for the Product, Viela receives any question from a Regulatory Authority with respect to the CMC Data for the Product or otherwise in connection with any MedImmune Manufacturing Technology, unless AstraZeneca has specified otherwise, Viela shall not answer any such question and shall promptly forward such question to AstraZeneca and unless AstraZeneca has specified otherwise, AstraZeneca shall, where this is permissible, provide the answer to any such question directly to the applicable Regulatory Authority. For clarity, (i) if AstraZeneca provides a right of reference, or such other method for Viela to utilize the CMC Data other than providing such CMC Data directly to specified personnel at Viela, such reference or other method shall not entitle Viela to view, access, or otherwise obtain such CMC Data or any other MedImmune Manufacturing Technology; and (ii) to the extent that MedImmune Manufacturing Technology is disclosed pursuant to this Clause 13.8, it may not be further disclosed within Viela, to an Affiliate or to any Third Party except to:

(a)

a Regulatory Authority pursuant to this Clause 13.8 to the extent necessary to obtain or maintain a Regulatory Approval for the Product; provided, however, that reasonable measures shall be taken to assure confidential treatment of such MedImmune Manufacturing Technology and Viela shall not disclose any MedImmune Manufacturing Technology to any Regulatory Authority or answer any query raised by a Regulatory Authority with respect to MedImmune Manufacturing Technology, unless Viela has provided a copy of the query (or other explanation of the need to disclose) and proposed disclosure or response to AstraZeneca and AstraZeneca has given its written consent to such proposed disclosure or response (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed); or

(b)

the extent required pursuant to Clause 13.2(b), as provided therein.

(C)

NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION IN THIS SUPPLY AGREEMENT, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS CLAUSE 13.8, VIELA SHALL NOT USE OR DISCLOSE MEDIMMUNE MANUFACTURING TECHNOLOGY FOR ANY PURPOSE.
