Dynavax shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Purchaser and its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees, and agents (each, a “Purchaser Indemnitee”) from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) (collectively, “Losses”) incurred by the Purchaser Indemnitees as a result of any claim, demand, action, or other proceeding by a Third Party (collectively, “Claims”) to the extent caused by: (a) the breach by any Dynavax Indemnitee (including of its CMOs) of any warranty, representation, covenant, or agreement made by Dynavax in this Agreement; or (b) the negligence, gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Dynavax Indemnitee or its CMOs; or (c) the CpG Material provided under this Agreement, including claims that the manufacture, use, supply, import or export of the CpG Materials infringes or misappropriates a Third Party’s intellectual property rights; except, in each case ((a) through (c)), to the extent such Losses or Claims result from an event for which Purchaser has an obligation to indemnify Dynavax under Section 9.2.

9.2 Indemnification by Purchaser. Purchaser shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Dynavax and its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees, and agents (each, a “Dynavax Indemnitee”) from and against any and all Losses incurred by the Dynavax Indemnitees as a result of any Claim to the extent caused by: (a) the breach by any Purchaser Indemnitee of any warranty, representation, covenant, or agreement made by Purchaser in this Agreement, (b) the negligence, gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Purchaser Indemnitee, or (c) the disposition by or on behalf of Purchaser of any Product manufactured with CpG Materials under this Agreement, including claims that the manufacture, use, supply, import or export of Product (excluding the CpG Materials), infringes or misappropriates a Third Party’s intellectual property rights; except, in each case ((a)-(c)), to the extent such Losses or Claims result from an event for which Dynavax has an obligation to indemnify Purchaser under Section 9.1.

9.3 Indemnification Procedures. A Party that intends to claim indemnification under this Article 9 (the “Indemnitee”) shall promptly notify the indemnifying Party (the “Indemnitor”) in writing of the Claim in respect of which the Indemnitee intends to claim such indemnification, and subject to the remainder of this Section 9.3, the Indemnitor shall have sole control of the defense or settlement thereof at its own expense. The failure to deliver written notice to the Indemnitor within a reasonable time after the commencement of any action with respect to a Claim

23

CONFIDENTIAL

shall only relieve the Indemnitor of its indemnification obligations under this Article 9 if and to the extent the Indemnitor is actually prejudiced thereby. The Indemnitee may participate in the Indemnitor’s defense of and settlement negotiations for any Claim with counsel of the Indemnitee’s own choice (but in that case at the Indemnitee’s cost and expense). The Indemnitee shall not settle any Claim for which it seeks indemnification hereunder without the consent of the Indemnitor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. The Indemnitor shall not settle any Claim which imposes any liability or obligation on the Indemnitee (unless the settlement involves only the payment of money), involves any admission of wrongdoing on the part of the Indemnitee, or does not include a release of all claims against the Indemnitee, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, which consent shall not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. The Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnitor and its legal representatives in the investigation of any action with respect to a Claim covered by this indemnification at the Indemnitor’s expense.

9.4 Insurance. Each Party shall maintain commercial general liability insurance and product liability and other appropriate insurance, at its own expense, in an amount consistent with sound business practice and reasonable in light of its obligations under this Agreement. Each Party shall maintain such insurance for the period commencing promptly after the Effective Date until [***] years after the Term. Each Party shall provide evidence of such coverage to the other Party upon request, including a certificate of insurance (if applicable). It is understood that such insurance shall not be construed to create any limit of either Party’s obligations or liabilities with respect to its indemnification obligations under this Agreement.

9.5 Limitation of Liability.

(a) EXCEPT AS PROVIDED UNDER SECTION 9.5(b), (I) NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR ANY SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR LOST PROFITS, ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE CPG MATERIALS, OR THE PRODUCT, INCLUDING ANY BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT, REGARDLESS OF ANY NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES AND (II) EACH PARTY’S MAXIMUM LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE CPG MATERIALS OR PRODUCT, REGARDLESS OF THE CAUSE OF ACTION, WILL NOT EXCEED [***].

(b) NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT IS INTENDED TO OR SHALL LIMIT OR RESTRICT AND THE LIMITATIONS UNDER SECTION 9.5(a) SHALL NOT APPLY WITH RESPECT TO (I) ANY LOSSES OR CLAIMS SUBJECT TO EITHER PARTY’S INDEMNIFICATION RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS UNDER SECTIONS 9.1 OR 9.2, (II) DAMAGES AVAILABLE FOR A PARTY’S BREACH OF CONFIDENTIALITY OBLIGATIONS IN ARTICLE 7, OR (III) A PARTY’S RIGHT TO RECOVER DAMAGES FOR FRAUD BY THE OTHER PARTY.

(b) This Agreement will commence on the Effective Date and will continue through December 31, 2025 or until earlier terminated by the Parties pursuant to Section 10.2 (the “Initial Term”). After the Initial Term, this Agreement shall automatically renew each year thereafter for a period of one (1) year (each, a “Renewal Term” and all Renewal Terms together with the Initial Term, the “Term”), unless either Party notifies the other Party in writing twelve (12) months prior to the renewal date that the notifying Party does not wish to renew the Agreement.

10.2 Termination.

(a) Material Breach. Each Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice to the other Party if such other Party materially breaches this Agreement and has not cured such breach to the reasonable satisfaction of the non-breaching Party within [***] days after receipt from the non-breaching Party of written notice specifying the breach and requesting its cure.

10.3 Termination for Insolvency. In the event that a Party (a) files for protection under bankruptcy or insolvency laws, (b) makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, (c) appoints or suffers appointment of a receiver or trustee over substantially all of its property that is not discharged within [***] days after such filing, (d) proposes a written agreement of composition or extension of its debts, (e) is a party to any dissolution or liquidation, (f) files a petition under any bankruptcy or insolvency act or has any such petition filed against that is not discharged within [***] days of the filing thereof, or (g) admits in writing its inability generally to meet its obligations as they fall due in the general course, then the other Party may terminate this Agreement in its entirety effective immediately upon written notice to such Party.

(c) following the decision of a Regulatory Authority or independent trial safety monitoring board, the commercialization of the Product is suspended or a recall of the Product is demanded.

10.5 Effects of Termination; Survival.

ARTICLE 11

GENERAL PROVISIONS

11.1 Force Majeure. Neither Party shall be liable to the other for any failure to fulfil its obligations under the Agreement to the extent that such failure is caused by force majeure event. As used in this Section 11.1, a “force majeure event” means any events which a Party could not reasonably have foreseen, prevented, mitigated risks from, or controlled by reason of the unavoidable, unforeseeable, or uncontrollable nature of such events, including (in each case provided they, or events resulting from them, have the preceding characteristics) fires, floods, earthquakes, hurricanes, embargoes, shortages, epidemics, pandemics, quarantines, riots, insurrections, civil or foreign wars, or strikes, as well as any other circumstances beyond the reasonable control of the affected Party. The Party affected by the occurrence of a force majeure event shall (a) promptly inform the other Party thereof and (b) use reasonable efforts to mitigate the consequences of such force majeure event and to remedy the situation and recommence performance as soon as reasonably practicable. Any timelines affected by a force majeure event shall be extended for a period equal to that of the delay. The affected Party shall provide notice of the start and stop of any force majeure event to the other Party.

This Agreement, and all questions regarding the existence, validity, interpretation, breach, or performance of this Agreement, shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, United States, without reference to its conflicts of law principles. The application of the U.N. Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (1980) is excluded.

11.3 Dispute Resolution.

(a) General. Any dispute between the Parties arising out of, in connection with or relating to this Agreement or any document or instrument delivered in connection herewith (a “Dispute”) shall be resolved pursuant to this Section 11.3.

(c) Exclusive Jurisdiction and Venue. If the Senior Officers are not able to agree on the resolution of a Dispute within thirty (30) days (or such other period of time as mutually agreed by the Senior Officers) after such Dispute was first referred to them, then, if a Party wishes to pursue further resolution of such Dispute, subject to Section 11.3(d) below, such Dispute shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Court”). Each Party hereby irrevocably consents to the personal jurisdiction of the Court for any action, suit or proceeding (other than appeals therefrom) arising out of, in connection with or relating to this Agreement or any document or instrument delivered in connection herewith, agrees not to raise any objection at any time to the laying or maintaining of the venue of any such action, suit or proceeding in such Court, irrevocably waives any claim that such action, suit or other proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum, and further irrevocably waives the right to object, with respect to such action, suit or other proceeding, that such Court does not have any jurisdiction over such Party. Each Party further agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document delivered by reputable international overnight or express courier service to its address set forth in Section 11.5 shall be effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding brought against it under this Agreement in any such Court.

(d) Interim Relief. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, including Section 11.3(b), nothing in this Section 11.3 shall preclude either Party from (i) seeking interim or provisional relief, including a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, or other interim equitable relief concerning a Dispute in any court of competent jurisdiction before or after the initiation of a proceeding as set forth in Section 11.3(c), and (ii) the Parties may submit any dispute, controversy, or claim relating to the scope, validity, enforceability or infringement of any intellectual property before any relevant administrative body, in the country in which such intellectual property was granted or arose without first having complied with the procedures set forth in Section 11.3(c). This Section 11.3(d) shall be specifically enforceable.

Each Party hereby guarantees the performance by its Affiliates of such Party’s obligations under this Agreement, and shall cause its Affiliates to comply with the provisions of this Agreement in connection with such performance. Any breach by a Party’s Affiliate of any of such Party’s obligations under this Agreement shall be deemed a breach by such Party, and the other Party may proceed directly against such Party without any obligation to first proceed against such Party’s Affiliate.

11.8 Further Actions. Each Party agrees to execute, acknowledge, and deliver such further instruments, and to do all such other acts, as may be necessary or appropriate in order to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.

11.9 Severability. In the event that any term of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other portion of this Agreement, and in such case the Parties shall promptly negotiate in good faith to amend such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable term with a valid, legal, and enforceable term that most closely effectuates the original intent of the Parties.

11.10 No Waiver. The failure on the part of a Party to enforce, or any delay in enforcing, any right, power, or remedy that such Party may have under this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any such right, power, or remedy, or release the other Party from any obligations under this Agreement, except by a written document signed by the Party against whom such waiver or release is sought to be enforced. Such written document shall specify the particular matter waived and, if applicable, the relevant period of time.

11.11 Relationship Between the Parties. The Parties’ relationship, as established by this Agreement, is solely that of independent contractors. This Agreement does not create any partnership, joint venture, or similar business relationship between the Parties.
