Specifications, Statements of Work and determination of "cost" in order to set
the price pursuant to Section 5.01.
Page 3.
2.04 Work Performed by POD. POD shall be responsible for "finishing" the
formulated bulk Solution supplied to it by IMMUN in accordance with the
Statement of Work to produce Product which meets the Specifications set forth in
Schedule 1.04 attached hereto.
2.05 Preparation of Bulk Solution. IMMUN shall be responsible for the
preparation of the Bulk Solution according to the PLA and shall be responsible
for providing such Bulk Solution to POD, at POD's facilities at such time and in
such quantities as to enable POD to produce Product in accordance with the
Statement of Work.
2.06 Use of POD Facilities by IMMUN. POD shall make its facilities
(including all equipment reasonably required for the preparation of Bulk
Solution) available for IMMUN personnel to prepare Bulk Solution in the quantity
required for the manufacture of lots of Product scheduled for production in
accordance with the scheduling procedures of Section 3.03.
2.07 Equipment provided by IMMUN. IMMUN, where possible, shall provide
all equipment and spare parts for such equipment which will come in contact with
the Bulk Solution for each Product and which shall be suitable and sufficient
for the preparation, holding and filling of each of the Bulk Solutions. Such
equipment shall be provided to POD new and in good working order. POD agrees to
clean, maintain and store such equipment and use it solely for the purpose of
manufacturing the IMMUN product for which it is dedicated. IMMUN shall be
responsible for the repair or replacement of all equipment that becomes
inoperative because of normal wear and tear or improper use by IMMUN employees.
POD shall be responsible for the replacement of such equipment that becomes
inoperative because of improper use by POD employees. A list of the equipment to
be provided by IMMUN is attached as Schedule 2.07.
2.08 Compliance With Applicable Rules at the POD Facility. While
performing the formulation activities at the POD facilities described in Section
2.05, IMMUN personnel shall comply with applicable current Good Manufacturing
Practice as set forth in 21 CFR Part 211, as amended from time to time ("FDA
GMP") and POD's written Standard Operating Procedures ("SOPs") as disclosed to
IMMUN prior to the date hereof. IMMUN agrees to assume any and all risks of its
personnel entering and being in POD's facilities for such formulation activities
and releases POD from any and all claims which may arise due to any injury,
damage or loss which may be suffered by such personnel on such premises;
provided, however, that such assumption and release shall not apply to any risk,
injury, damage or loss caused by or resulting substantially from the negligence
of POD, its employees and agents.
2.09 Responsibility for Bulk Solution. Except as otherwise provided
herein, IMMUN shall be solely liable for any damage to or loss of the Bulk
Solution prepared by IMMUN at the POD facility. POD shall have no obligation or
responsibility to IMMUN for any damage to or loss of such Bulk Solution until
Page 4.
IMMUN provides such Bulk Solution to POD personnel to begin finishing the Bulk
Solution into Product, unless such loss or damage is due to the negligence of
POD.
2.10 Endotoxin Testing. Unless otherwise agreed to by the parties, POD
shall retain a sample of each batch of final formulated Bulk Solution provided
to it by IMMUN for finishing and POD shall assay the retained sample of final
formulated Bulk Solution for presence of endotoxin to provide a baseline
endotoxin measurement to be used to determine whether endotoxin was introduced
into the Product during the finishing process. If the results of the endotoxin
test indicates that endotoxin was introduced into the Product after compounding
and during finishing then failure of the Product to meet the Endotoxin
Specifications shall be presumed to be the fault of POD and the provisions of
Section 10.01 shall apply.
2.11 Availability of POD Facilities. In the event that the POD
facilities should become unavailable for any reason and for any period of time
resulting in IMMUN being unable to use such facilities to prepare the Bulk
Solution, POD shall promptly notify IMMUN, in writing, and shall use its best
efforts to promptly restore the availability of the facilities for the use of
IMMUN. In the event the POD facilities become unavailable to IMMUN for use
through no fault of POD, POD shall have no liability to IMMUN either direct or
indirect, consequential or inconsequential for any loss or damage suffered by
IMMUN as a result of the unavailability of the POD facilities.
2.12 Processing of Product in Quarantine. In the event POD elects to
process "in quarantine" as set forth in Paragraph 11 of Schedule 2.01, if a
batch or lot of product so processed is rejected, POD shall be responsible for
additional labor and materials costs associated with reworking of the batch or
lot; provided, however, that if IMMUN requests that the batch or lot be further
processed in quarantine, then IMMUN shall be responsible for the additional
labor and material costs if the batch or lot so processed is rejected and must
be reworked.
2.13 Regulatory Support. POD shall provide IMMUN at no additional
charge, with regulatory support for the Drug Master File and for the POD
facilities inspections by the FDA or equivalent foreign health care regulatory
authorities. In the event regulatory support additional to that just described
is required by IMMUN, POD shall provide such support and shall charge IMMUN for
the labor and materials used. Labor shall be charged at the rate specified in
Schedule 5.01 herein and materials shall be charged at cost.
2.14 Facilities Inspection. IMMUN shall have the right to audit POD's
facilities for Good Manufacturing Practices compliance during each year of the
term of the Agreement; provided IMMUN gives POD reasonable prior notice and the
date of the audit is mutually agreed to by the parties. IMMUN agrees that its
employees or agents which inspect POD facilities will comply with POD rules,
regulations and GMP's. IMMUN specifically assumes liability for any injuries,
damages or delays in production resulting solely from
Page 5.
the action of its employees or agents at POD facilities. There shall be no
charge to IMMUN for POD's cooperation unless more than one audit per year is
scheduled on IMMUN's behalf.
ARTICLE III. FORECAST OF REQUIREMENTS
3.01 Forecast. Within fifteen (15) days after the Effective Date, IMMUN
shall deliver to POD a forecast of the quantity (by batch size) of Product to be
produced by POD for the period from the Effective Date until December 31, 1996
(the "Initial Forecast"). The first three months of the forecast will be
considered a firm commitment for production quantities and the remainder of the
forecast shall be advisory only. Beginning on June 1, 1996, and thereafter on
June 1 of each calendar year of the Agreement, IMMUN shall deliver to POD a
forecast of its requirements for Product for the Calendar Year and shall
thereafter update such Calendar Year forecasts on a monthly basis in order to
allow POD to plan its production schedule for the batch size of Product to be
produced. In the event that IMMUN anticipates a material deviation from the
forecast at any time, IMMUN shall promptly notify POD.
3.02 POD Obligation to Meet Requirements. POD agrees to supply, in each
Calendar Year, all orders placed by IMMUN up to one hundred percent (100%) of
IMMUN's Calendar Year forecast. POD shall use reasonable efforts to supply any
quantity ordered by IMMUN of Product in excess of the forecast subject to POD's
production scheduling capabilities and commitments to other customers.
3.03 Placement of an Order. IMMUN shall initiate an order for Product by
sending to POD a specific purchase order for Product. Once POD takes possession
of the Bulk Solution and begins to finish such Bulk Solution pursuant to the
Statement of Work, IMMUN shall be obligated to accept delivery of and pay for
the Product produced from such Bulk Solution, provided such Product meets the
Specifications. Purchase orders shall be submitted to the attention of Contract
Manufacturing.
ARTICLE IV. SHIPMENT & STORAGE OF, & PAYMENT FOR PRODUCT
4.01 Storage. Finished vials will be stored at the recommended
controlled temperature until shipped as instructed by IMMUN. POD will store the
finished dosage form at no cost up to two weeks after the lots are released to
IMMUN by POD's Quality Assurance Department. Beyond two weeks an additional
charge will be incurred as noted in Schedule 5.01. The parties agree that the
storage of the finished product by POD shall not create or constitute an agency
relationship between the parties. Title to all Product whether approved or
unapproved shall remain with IMMUN and subject to the Provisions of 10.01, risk
of loss of such product shall rest with IMMUN.
Page 6.
4.02 Transfer of Product to IMMUN. Product shall be shipped to IMMUN by
POD F.O.B. Albuquerque; any deviation from this Section 4.02 must be in writing
and agreed to by POD. There shall be only one shipment per lot of Product.
4.03 Payment for Product. POD shall invoice IMMUN for approved Product
which is "released" in accordance with applicable FDA rules and regulations. The
invoice date shall be either the date of shipment of Product or the date the lot
is released by POD's Quality Department (in the event the lot is not shipped
following release in quarantine to IMMUN by POD's Quality Department). Payment
terms are [*]% in advance with the payment and purchase order received prior to
the manufacture of each lot (F.O.B. Albuquerque). The remaining [*]% of the
price shall be due within ten (10) working days of completion of batch record
review by POD and receipt of the lot(s) by IMMUN if the lots are shipped to
IMMUN or an IMMUN designated location or, if POD stores the lot(s) of Product,
payment of the remaining [*]% will be due ten (10) days after completion of
batch record review by POD.
4.04 Cancellation Fee. A cancellation fee of [*] Dollars [*], plus an
additional charge for labor and materials if applicable, shall be billed to
IMMUN if cancellation or rescheduling by IMMUN of any scheduled batch production
occurs within one (1) week (7 days) of the scheduled manufacture date.
4.05 Component Fee. A component fee equal to [*] times the cost of POD's
components used plus [*] times the costs associated with component preparation
shall be billed to IMMUN if IMMUN fails to cancel a lot one week (7 days) prior
to the scheduled manufacture date.
4.06 Late Payment Penalty. All invoices paid later than ten (10) days
from completion of batch record review by POD will be charged 1.5% interest per
month.
ARTICLE V. PRICE OF MANUFACTURE
5.01 Price. IMMUN shall pay POD for Product in accordance with the price
set forth in Schedule 5.01 attached hereto.
5.02 Price Increase. The price charged by POD for the manufacture of
Product as specified in Section 5.01 shall remain in effect until December 31,
1996. On January 1, of each Calendar Year thereafter, POD shall have the right
to increase the price set forth in Schedule 5.01 to reflect increased
manufacturing costs and increased fixed costs incurred by POD during the
previous twelve (12) month period. Any such price increase shall not exceed ten
percent (10%) of the sum of the manufacturing cost and fixed cost for the
Product determined for the previous twelve (12) month period.
5.03 Notification of Price Increase. POD must notify IMMUN no later than
December 1, 1996 that POD intends to take a price increase and the amount of the
increase (hereinafter the "Increased Cost
Page 7.
Notice"). At the time POD provides IMMUN with the Increased Cost Notice, POD
shall provide IMMUN with a statement which sets forth, in reasonable detail, the
increased costs and the computation thereof.
5.04 Verification of Increase by Accountant. Within forty-five (45) days
after receipt of the Increased Cost Notice from POD, IMMUN shall have the right
to have any such increase in cost verified by an independent certified public
accountant of its choosing who shall be reasonably acceptable to POD and who
shall execute such nondisclosure agreement with respect to POD's confidential
information as may reasonably be required by POD (a "Nondisclosure Agreement").
5.05 Accountant's Report. The independent accountant described in
Section 5.05 shall issue a report within thirty (30) days of the completion of
the audit, and copies of such report shall be delivered to IMMUN and POD. IMMUN
shall be obligated to pay the increased price for the Product during the period
of the audit and completion of the report.
5.06 Determination that Increase is Unjustified. In the event the audit
of the increased costs shows that such increase is not based on reasonable
evidence of increased costs to POD, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to
determine an acceptable price increase, if any. If the independent auditor
determines that the price increase requested by POD is more than 1.5 times the
increase the independent auditor finds to be supported, POD shall pay for the
cost of such audit.
5.07 Price Decrease. If, as a result of a cooperative effort between POD
and IMMUN relating to the manufacture of IMMUN's products, POD experiences a
decrease in cost of manufacture of Product, e.g., materials, direct labor and
the like or overhead related to the services to be performed by POD under this
Agreement, POD shall notify IMMUN of such decrease and grant IMMUN a reduction
in price equal to the related cost reduction. IMMUN shall have the right, upon
reasonable notice to POD, to have an independent certified public accountant
reasonably acceptable to POD (who shall execute a Nondisclosure Agreement)
review the books and records of POD once every Calendar Year to verify if any
such cost reductions resulting from the joint efforts of IMMUN and POD have
occurred.
ARTICLE VI. WARRANTIES OF POD
6.01 The POD Facility. POD represents and warrants that it shall use its
best efforts to maintain its facilities in such a fashion as to be in compliance
with all applicable federal, state and local rules and regulations. POD agrees
that it will maintain a Type I Drug Master File ("DMF") for the POD facility.
Page 8.
6.02 Aseptic Processing Environment. POD represents and warrants that it
shall use its best efforts to insure that all filtration, filling and
lyophilization of the Product by POD shall be done in an aseptic processing
environment and in accordance with the Statement of Work.
6.03 Failure to Comply with Sections 6.01 and 6.02. In the event that
POD determines that it is unable to comply with its obligations as specified in
Section 6.01 and Section 6.02, it shall promptly notify IMMUN of its inability
to comply and shall advise IMMUN of what actions POD shall take in order to be
in compliance.
ARTICLE VII. OWNERSHIP OF COMPONENTS AND RISK OF LOSS

11.01 Confidential Information. Each party ("Receiving Party") shall
maintain in confidence all information heretofore or hereafter disclosed by the
other ("Disclosing Party") which such party knows or has reason to know are
trade secret and other proprietary information owned by or licensed to the
other, including, but not limited to, information relating to the Product
(including without limitation, information developed in preclinical and clinical
studies), and licenses, patents, patent applications, technology or processes
and business plans of the other party, including, without limitation,
information designated as confidential in writing from one party to the other
(all of the foregoing hereinafter referred to as "Confidential Information"),
and shall not use such Confidential Information except as permitted by this
Agreement or disclose the same to anyone other than those of its officers,
directors or employees as are necessary in connection with such party's
activities as contemplated by this Agreement. Each party shall use the same
efforts such party would use to protect its own information to ensure that its
officers, directors and employees do not disclose or make any unauthorized use
of such Confidential Information. Each party shall notify the other promptly
upon discovery of any unauthorized use or disclosure of the other's Confidential
Information.
11.02 Limitations on Confidentiality. The obligation of confidentiality
contained in this Article XI shall not apply to the extent that: i) the
Receiving Party is required to disclose information by applicable law,
regulation or order of a governmental agency or a court of competent
jurisdiction; ii) the Receiving Party can demonstrate that the disclosed
information was at the time of disclosure already in the public domain other
than as a result of actions or failure to act of the Receiving Party, its
officers, directors or employees, in violation hereof; iii) the disclosed
information was rightfully known by the Receiving Party (as shown by its written
records) prior to the date of disclosure to the Receiving Party in connection
with this Agreement; or iv) the
Page 12.
disclosed information was received by the Receiving Party on an unrestricted
basis from a source which is not under a duty of confidentiality to the other
party.
11.03 Disclosure Required by Law. In the event that the Receiving Party
shall be required to make disclosure pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.02
(i) as a result of the issuance of a court order or other government process,
the Receiving Party shall promptly, but in no event more than forty-eight (48)
hours after learning of such court order or other government process, notify, by
personal delivery or facsimile, all pursuant to Section 12.04 hereof, the
Disclosing Party and, at the Disclosing Party's expense, the Receiving Party
shall: a) take all reasonably necessary steps requested by the Disclosing Party
to defend against the enforcement of such court order or other government
process, and b) permit the Disclosing Party to intervene and participate with
counsel of its choice in any proceeding relating to the enforcement thereof.
11.04 Equitable Remedies for Breach of Confidentiality. The parties
acknowledge that their failure to comply with the provisions of Section 11.01 of
this Article XI may cause irreparable harm and damage to the name and reputation
of the other party for which no adequate remedy may be available at law.
Accordingly, the parties agree that upon a breach by a party of such provisions,
the non-breaching party may, at its option, enforce the obligations of the
breaching party under those provisions by seeking equitable remedies in a court
of competent jurisdiction.
ARTICLE XII. MISCELLANEOUS
12.01 Force Majeure. Neither of the parties to this Agreement shall be
liable to the other party for any loss, injury, delay, damage or other casualty
suffered or incurred by such other party due to strikes, lockouts, accidents,
fire, delays in manufacture, transportation or delivery of material, embargoes,
inability to ship, explosions, floods, war, governmental action or any other
cause similar thereto which is beyond the reasonable control of such other party
and any failure or delay by a party in the performance of any of its obligations
under this Agreement shall not be considered as a breach of this Agreement due
to, but only so long as there exists, one or more of the foregoing causes;
provided, however, that if POD cannot complete an order within ninety (90) days
due to any such cause, IMMUN may cancel the order without liability to POD.

other similar relationship, the existence of which is hereby expressly denied by
each party. Neither party shall be liable to any third party in any way for
engagement, obligation, contract, representation or transaction or for any
negligent act or omission to act of the other except as expressly provided.

SCHEDULE 2.01
STATEMENT OF WORK
1. All of the work to be performed in processing the Product shall be in
accordance with the Specifications set forth in Schedule 1.04.
2. POD will be responsible for aseptic processing and lyophilization of the
formulated Bulk Solution(s) of Injectable grade CEA-Scan'tm' or
LeukoScan'r', using Bulk Solution(s) prepared at POD by IMMUN personnel.
3. POD will be responsible for furnishing the tested and released Water for
Injection USP, and Nitrogen, NF as required. Argon gas (best grade
available) will be supplied by POD, and IMMUN will be invoiced at POD's
cost for the number of tanks used.
4. POD will membrane sterile filter the Bulk Solution and conduct the
appropriate "in process" quality control testing as specified in
Paragraph 13(d) below, on the buffers, formulated product and sterile
bulk solution prior to filling into vials.
5. Upon receiving a written release from POD's Quality Control Department,
the POD Production Department will aseptically subdivide the sterile
Bulk Solution into the appropriate sterile vial size at a specified fill
weight so that each vial contains the required amount of Product.
6. Filled trays of vials will be held in an enclosed cart purged with Argon
until loaded into the lyophilizer on shelves frozen to[*][d]C. The
aseptically filled vials will then be lyophilized according to a written
Standard Procedure for Freeze Drying.
7. At the completion of the Standard Freeze Drying cycle, the
lyophilization chamber will be restored to the specified pressure with
Nitrogen NF, which will be passed through a suitable, sterilized
microbiological-retentive filter. The lyophilized vials will be
aseptically stoppered inside the chamber, then removed and sealed with
specified aluminum closures in a controlled environment area.
8. The finished vials will be transferred from the capping area where they
are sampled for QC testing.
9. Samples of each lot of finished vials will be sent to IMMUN for testing.
The samples requested by IMMUN will be packed on cold packs and shipped
per IMMUN's written instructions.
10. IMMUN will inform POD in writing of the acceptable or unacceptable test
results as soon as they become available to allow POD to schedule the
product for inspection.
11. The finished vials will be placed in quarantine and stored at the
recommended controlled temperature until released by POD's or IMMUN's
Quality Assurance Departments. IMMUN will be responsible for final
release.
12. Based on POD's release for further processing and/or in conjunction with
IMMUN's release, the Vice President or designee of POD's Quality
Assurance Department will notify POD's Packaging Supervisor that
finished vials can be 100% inspected and bulk packed into their final
configuration. As an alternative, POD may elect to process [*] to reduce
labor costs (i.e., inspect and bulk package
in quarantine) prior to quality control release. This alternative method
is according to POD's Standard Procedure for the Release and Shipment of
Finished Products and shall be at the risk of POD for additional labor
costs if a lot so processed [*] is rejected. POD will maintain complete
lot identify until the lot is released by IMMUN.
13. In furtherance of the foregoing steps, POD will, in accordance with the
Specifications:
(a) Prepare the batch documents, which shall include the Master Batch
Record as approved by POD and IMMUN.
(b) Furnish the necessary Nitrogen, NF, and Water for Injection, USP,

in accordance with SOP's provided by POD.
(i) Freeze dry vials and determine moisture value by Loss on Drying
method (LOD).
(j) Aseptically stopper and seal lyophilized product vials.
(k) Perform limited Quality Control testing of finished dosage form
according to IMMUN specifications as designated in PLA including:
i) Sterility (current U.S.P. confirmation) plus
Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6598P, (BP - British
Pharmacopeia).
ii) LOD moisture determination after the sealing operation.
(l) Where possible deliver released batch records and all testing
records to IMMUN within 30 days of manufacture and inspection in
connection with remaining testing of finished dosage form by
