accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
(b)Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that (i) Pfizer’s efforts to develop and manufacture the Product are aspirational in nature and subject to significant risks and uncertainties, and (ii)
the fact that any other drug or vaccine to prevent, treat or cure COVID-19 infection is successfully developed or granted authorization earlier than the granting of Authorization for the
Product shall not change the current situation of urgent needs for prevention of the spread of the COVID-19 infection that poses serious threats to and harmful effects on the lives and health of the general public
.
(c)Not withstanding the efforts and any estimated dates set forth in the Delivery Schedule, the Parties recognize that the Product has completed Phase 2b/3 clinical trials and that, despite the efforts of Pfizer in research, and development and manufacturing, the Product may not be successful due to technical, clinical, regulatory, manufacturing, shipping, storage, or other challenges or failures.
(d)Accordingly, Pfizer and its Affiliates shall have no liability of any kind for any failure by Pfizer or its Affiliates to develop or obtain Authorization of the Product in accordance with the estimated dates described in this Agreement. Even if the Product is successfully developed and obtains Authorization, Pfizer shall have no liability for any failure to deliver doses in accordance with any estimated delivery dates set forth herein (other than as expressly set out in this Agreement), nor shall any such failure give Purchaser any right to cancel orders for any quantities of Product.
(e)Pfizer shall keep Purchaser apprised of the progress of the material development of the Product and shall provide Purchaser with such information regarding that development as Purchaser reasonably requests.
(f)Purchaser, including any related Person or any agents of Purchaser, covenants to exclusively obtain all of its supply of any Vaccine of Pfizer, BioNTech or their respective Affiliates
intended for the prevention of the human disease COVID-19 (including the Product) either (i) directly from Pfizer or from Pfizer through the COVAX Facility, or (ii) from a Third Party,
whether by donation, resale or otherwise, only if Purchaser has obtained Pfizer’s prior written consent. Any breach of this Section

competing vaccine products of any Third Party.

the provisions of this Agreement.

Any accepted Additional Order must be placed during the Term of the Agreement. Upon Pfizer’s acceptance of a Purchase Order for an Additional Order (whether or not through amendment to this Agreement), the doses subject to the accepted Additional Order shall be Contracted Doses. After submission to, and acceptance by, Pfizer of an Additional Order, Purchaser shall pay Pfizer the additional advance payment (calculated as 20% of the price per dose multiplied by the doses subject to the Additional Order) within ten (10) days of the Purchase Order of such Additional Order (“Additional Advance Payment”).

Full payment of the Additional Advance Payment as well as the remainder of the
Delivery Price for the additional contracted doses (“Additional Delivery Price”) in accordance with the terms set forth herein, including without limitation Sections 3.2 and 3.3, are conditions to supply any doses subject to the Additional Order.

adjustments to the number of Contracted Doses and Delivery Schedule due to the Purchaser to reflect such shortages based on principles to be determined by Pfizer under the then existing circumstances (“Allocation”) which shall be set out in such notice.

All amounts due hereunder shall be paid in US Dollars (USD) in the bank account indicated by Pfizer with no reduction of set-off whatsoever. The Purchaser is solely responsible for carrying out the foreign exchange agreement with a local bank aiming at remitting funds for the payment of the Price.
(b) Pfizer shall invoice Purchaser for the remainder of the Price for the Contracted Doses (the “Delivery Price”) sixty (60) days prior to the anticipated date of each shipment of the Product, which shall be equal to the difference of the Price for the number of the Contracted Doses being delivered in such delivery and an apportionment of the Advanced Payment based on the number of Contracted Doses. Purchaser shall pay all undisputed (in good faith) amounts due in USD to Pfizer for each batch of the Product upon the earlier of (i) at least ten (10) days prior to the estimated arrival of such batch at the port of entry in Brazil, and (ii) thirty (30) days from the date of invoice.
(c) Invoices shall be provided to DLOG (Health Logistics Department of the Executive Secretariat of the Ministry of Health). Pfizer shall include the following information on all invoices: the Purchase Order number and billing address; and shall also include, where applicable, the type description, part number (if any) and number of Contracted Doses delivered; the delivery date; the actual date of shipment; the Price; any applicable taxes or other charges provided for in the Purchase Order; and the ship-to destination.

3.3 Method of Payment.
(a) Purchaser shall pay all undisputed (in good faith) amounts due in US Dollars (USD) for each batch of the Product upon the earlier of (i) at least ten (10) days prior to the estimated arrival of such batch at the port of entry in Brazil and (ii) thirty (30) days from the date of invoice. Payment shall be remitted by wire transfer in immediately available funds to a bank and account designated by Pfizer. Any payment which falls due on a date which is not a Business Day may be made on the next succeeding Business Day. Any dispute by Purchaser of an invoice shall be provided to Pfizer in writing (along with substantiating documentation and a reasonably detailed description of the dispute) within ten (10) days from the date of such
invoice. Purchaser will be deemed to have accepted all invoices for which Pfizer does not receive timely notification of disputes, and shall pay all undisputed amounts due under such invoices within the period set forth in this Section 3.3(a). The Parties shall seek to resolve all such disputes expeditiously and in good faith.
(b) Any amount required to be paid by a Party hereunder which is not paid on the date due shall bear interest, to the extent permitted by Law, at five percent (5%) above LIBOR (or any successor to such rate) effective for the date such payment was due, as reported in the Wall Street Journal (https://www.wsj.com/market-data/bonds). Such interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) days for the actual number of days payment is delinquent. In addition to all other remedies available under this Agreement or at Law, if Purchaser fails to pay any undisputed amounts when due under this Agreement, Pfizer may (i) suspend the delivery of the Product or (ii) terminate this Agreement.
(c) Purchaser shall not, and acknowledges that it will have no right, under this Agreement, any Purchase Order, any other agreement, document or Law, to withhold, offset, recoup or debit any amounts owed (or to become due and owing) to Pfizer, whether under this Agreement or otherwise, against any other amount owed (or to become due and owing) to it by Pfizer or a Pfizer Affiliate.

3.4. Taxes.
It is understood and agreed between the Parties that any payments made and other consideration provided under this Agreement are exclusive of any VAT or similar tax and all other taxes which are incurred as a result of manufacturing and supplying the Product (including, without limitation, custom duties, levies and charges and all local taxes) (“Taxes”), which shall be added thereon as applicable. Where Taxes are properly chargeable on a payment made or consideration provided under this Agreement, the Party making the payment or providing the consideration will pay the amount of Taxes in accordance with the Laws and regulations of the country in which the Taxes are chargeable. In the event any payments made pursuant to this Agreement become subject to withholding Taxes under the laws or regulation of any jurisdiction, the Party making such payment shall deduct and withhold the amount of such Taxes for the account of the payee to the extent required by Law and such amounts payable to the payee shall be reduced by the amount of Taxes
deducted and withheld. Any such withholding Taxes required under Law to be paid or withheld shall be an expense of, and borne solely by, the payee.

4. Manufacturing Standards And Quality Assurance.

4.1 Manufacturing Standards.
Pfizer shall manufacture and supply the Product in material accordance with the Specifications and cGMP. Such Specifications may be revised through written notification by Pfizer to
Purchaser to conform to the Authorization or changes to the manufacturing or distribution of the Product.

4.2 Legal and Regulatory Filings and Requests.
(a) Pfizer shall (a) comply with all regulatory or government licenses and permits, and (b) comply with all cGMP with respect to its manufacturing and packaging processes, the Facilities or otherwise, to permit the performance of its obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Pfizer shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to obtain the Authorization.
(b) Pfizer shall ensure that all Product is properly labelled and packaged in accordance with the applicable Authorization, Specifications and material cGMP standards.
(c) Prior to delivery, Pfizer shall comply with all conditions (in the relevant timescales) set out in the Authorization; provided, however, that Purchaser shall grant, or obtain on Pfizer’s behalf, all exemptions, exceptions, and waivers of country specific requirements for the Product granted or permitted by the Government authority (including but not limited to serialization, applicable laboratory or quality testing and/or marketing information form submission and approval), which requirements, absent an exemption, exception or waiver, would prevent Pfizer from supplying and releasing the Product in Brazil upon receipt of the Authorization. In order to maintain an efficient supply chain for the manufacture, release and supply of the Product, Pfizer will be solely responsible for determination of manufacturing and testing locations and will conduct testing in accordance with the Authorization. Pfizer will not
agree to requests for local testing or requests for lot release protocols or requests for registration samples in this Agreement or in subsequent amendments or extensions of this Agreement.
(d) In the event that a third party is the applicant or holder of the Authorization, any obligation on Pfizer under this Agreement shall be taken as a requirement on Pfizer to use
Commercially Reasonable Efforts to procure the compliance of such third party Authorization applicant or holder with such obligations to the extent necessary to ensure the relevant
obligation is fully met.

4.3 Quality Tests and Checks.
Pfizer shall perform all bulk holding stability, manufacturing trials, validation (including, but not limited to, method, process and equipment cleaning validation), raw material, inprocess,
bulk finished product and stability (chemical or microbial) tests or checks required to assure the quality of the Product and tests or checks required by the Specifications and cGMP.

4.4 Rejection of Product; Disposal of Rejected Shipments.
(a)Purchaser may reject any Product that does not materially conform to Specifications or cGMP (“Non-Complying Product”) by providing written notice of rejection to Pfizer and setting out detailed reasons for such rejection: (i) immediately (and in no event more than twenty-four (24) hours) upon delivery at the Place of Destination of such Non-Complying Product to Purchaser; or (ii) immediately and in no event more than twenty-four (24) hours upon its first knowledge of a Latent Defect. In the event notice is not provided within twentyfour (24) hours from delivery, the Product shall have been deemed accepted. Pfizer shall respond to any rejection and notice of Non-Complying Product from Purchaser in a timely manner. For clarity, Purchaser shall not be entitled to reject any Product based on service complaints unless a Product does not materially conform to Specifications or cGMP.
(b)Pfizer shall conduct an analysis of the causes of any such quality-related complaint and shall report to Purchaser on any corrective action taken. If Pfizer’s inspection and testing reveals, to Pfizer’s reasonable satisfaction, that such items of the Product are Non-Complying Product and that any such non-conformity or defect has not been caused or contributed to by any abuse, misuse, neglect, negligence, accident, improper testing, improper storage, improper handling, abnormal physical stress, abnormal environmental conditions or use contrary to any instructions issued by Pfizer, Pfizer shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to replace such Non-Complying Product as soon as practicable at no additional charge to
Purchaser. In such circumstances, Pfizer will further arrange for reverse logistics for Product collection and manage the destruction of the Non-Complying Product. Until collection, Purchaser shall store and maintain the relevant Non-Complying Product in appropriately secure locations and in accordance with the manufacturers’ specifications. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, this Section 4.4(b) contains Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy for Non-Complying Product. The provisions of this Section 4.4 (Rejection of Product; Disposal of Rejected Shipments) shall survive termination or expiration of this Agreement.

4.5 Maintenance and Retention of Records.
a) Each Party shall maintain detailed Records with respect to its activities under this Agreement as required by Laws.
b) Purchaser will maintain a quality system for receipt, inspection, storage, traceability to further delivery points, and recall activities. If Purchaser does not have a quality system for the
activities defined, Pfizer may share details of a proposed quality system for Purchaser’s compliance.

4.6 Diversion Issues.
All Product delivered to Purchaser shall be: (a) stored securely by Purchaser; and (b) distributed by Purchaser only in Brazil in a secure manner appropriate to the transportation route
and destination, in each case (a) and (b) to guard against and deter theft, diversion, tampering, substitution (with, for example, counterfeits) resale or export out of Brazil, and to protect
and preserve the integrity and efficacy of the Product. Purchaser shall promptly notify Pfizer by email at qualidade@pfizer.com within forty-eight (48) hours (with follow up in writing in line with the notice provisions of this Agreement) if at any time Purchaser believes that any of the Product has been stolen, diverted, tampered with, substituted, or otherwise subjected to abuse, misuse, neglect, negligence, accident, improper testing, improper storage, improper handling, abnormal physical stress, abnormal environmental conditions or use contrary to any instructions issued by Pfizer. The notice shall provide all information relating to the Product diversion, including, but not limited to, detailed information including the date, time, location, number, batch number(s), expiration date, circumstances, and contact person(s) information. Purchaser shall cooperate with Pfizer or its designee, upon Pfizer’s request, to
cooperate in connection with such Product diversion.
Purchaser shall not directly or indirectly resell, donate, distribute, export or otherwise transport the Product outside the Territory without Pfizer’s prior written consent.

4.7 Recalls.
Purchaser shall be responsible for all costs of any recall or market withdrawal of the Product in Brazil, including, without limitation, reasonable costs incurred by or on behalf of Pfizer and its Affiliates or BioNTech and its Affiliates, except to the extent that such recall or market withdrawal results from willful misconduct (being a wrongful act, willingly and knowingly committed without legal or factual justification, with the intent to cause the harmful effects) on the part of, Pfizer or any of its Affiliates or any of their respective Personnel,
in which event Pfizer will be responsible solely for: (a) any reasonable and documented out of pocket expenses directly incurred by Purchaser to third parties in implementing such recall or market withdrawal; and (b) replacing, at Pfizer’s expense, the Product which has to be recalled.

8. Indemnification. 

8.1 Indemnification by Purchaser

Purchaser hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Pfizer, BioNTech, each of their Affiliates, contractors, sub-contractors, licensors, licensees, sub-licensees, distributors,
contract manufacturers, services providers, clinical trial researchers, third parties to whom Pfizer or BioNTech or any of their respective Affiliates may directly or indirectly owe an
indemnity based on the research, development, manufacture, distribution, commercialization or use of the Vaccine, and each of the officers, directors, employees and other agents and
representatives, and the respective predecessors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (“Indemnitees”), from and against any and all suits, claims, actions, demands, losses,
damages, liabilities, settlements, penalties, fines, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ and other counsels’ fees and other expenses of an investigation
or litigation), whether sounding in contract, tort (delict), intellectual property, or any other theory, and whether legal, statutory, equitable or otherwise by any natural or legal person
(collectively, “Losses”) caused by, arising out of, relating to, or resulting from the Vaccine, including but not limited to any stage of design, development, investigation, formulation,
testing, clinical testing, manufacture, labeling, packaging, transport, storage, distribution, marketing, promotion, sale, purchase, licensing, donation, dispensing, prescribing, administration, provision, or use of the Vaccine, any information, instructions, advice or guidance provided by Pfizer and relating to the use of the Vaccine, or any processing or transfer of anyone’s personal information processed and transferred by the Purchaser to the Indemnitees. 

8.2 Assumption of Defense by Purchaser

The Indemnitee(s) shall notify Purchaser of Losses for which it is seeking indemnification pursuant hereto (“Indemnified Claims”). Upon such notification, the Indemnitee(s) shall
have the option to conduct and control the defense or to require Purchaser to promptly assume conduct and control of the defense of such Indemnified Claims with counsel acceptable to
Indemnitee(s), whether or not the Indemnified Claim is rightfully brought; provided, however, that Purchaser shall provide advance notice in writing of any proposed compromise or
settlement of any Indemnified Claim and in no event may Purchaser compromise or settle any Indemnified Claim without Indemnitee(s)’s prior written consent, such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld. Indemnitee(s) shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser in the defense of any Indemnified Claims conducted and controlled by Purchaser.

8.3 Participation Rights

Each Indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own counsel and to participate in Purchaser’s defense of any Indemnified Claim, at its own cost and expense except as set forth below.
A failure by the Indemnitee(s) to give timely notice or to offer to tender the defense of the action or suit pursuant to this Section 8.3 (Participation Rights) shall not limit the obligation of
Purchaser under this Section 8, except and only to the extent Purchaser is actually prejudiced thereby.

8.4 Assumption of Defense

Notwithstanding the foregoing and without prejudice to Section 12.5 (Third Party Rights), Pfizer, directly or through any of its Affiliates or through BioNTech, may elect to assume
control of the defense of an Indemnified Claim (a) within thirty (30) days of Indemnitee’s notice to Purchaser of the Indemnified Claim or (b) at any time if, in Pfizer’s sole discretion: (i)
Purchaser fails to timely assume the defense of or reasonably defend such Indemnified Claim(s) in good faith to the satisfaction of Pfizer (or Pfizer’s Affiliates and BioNTech); or (ii)
Pfizer believes (or any of Pfizer’s Affiliates or BioNTech believe) in good faith that a bona fide conflict exists between Indemnitee(s) and Purchaser with respect to an Indemnified Claim
hereunder. Upon written notice of such election, Pfizer shall have the right to assume control of such defense (directly or through either one of its Affiliates or BioNTech), and Purchaser
shall pay (as incurred and on demand), all Losses, including, without limitation, the reasonable attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred by Indemnitee(s), in connection with the
Indemnified Claim. In all events, Purchaser shall cooperate with Indemnitee(s) in the defense, settlement or compromise of the Indemnified Claim.

8.5 Privileges and Immunities 

Purchaser acknowledges that its indemnification obligations under this Agreement are (a) expressly in addition to, and not limited by, any Privileges and Immunities, and (b) do not
waive or relinquish Indemnitees’ rights to any Privileges and Immunities.

8.6 Costs

Costs and expenses, including, without limitation, fees and disbursements of counsel, incurred by the Indemnitee(s) in connection with any Indemnified Claim shall be reimbursed on a
quarterly basis by Purchaser, without prejudice to Purchaser’s right to refund in the event that Purchaser is ultimately held in a final, non-appealable judgment or award to be not obligated to indemnify the Indemnitee(s).

9. INSURANCE AND LIABILITY.

9.1 Insurance.

During the Term, Pfizer or its Affiliates shall self-insure or procure and maintain such types and amounts of general liability insurance to cover liabilities related to its activities under this Agreement as is normal and customary in the pharmaceutical industry generally for companies that are similarly situated and providing similar manufacturing and supply services. For absolute clarity, this shall not include, nor constitute, product liability insurance to cover any third party/patients claims and such general liability insurance shall not impact Purchaser’s indemnification obligation as set out in this Agreement.

9.2 Limits on Liability

(a)Subject to the exclusions set forth in Section 9.3, in no circumstances shall (i) either Party be liable to the other Party or its Affiliates, whether arising in tort (including, without
limitation, negligence), contract or otherwise, for any indirect, special, consequential, incidental or punitive damages, whether in contract, warranty, tort, negligence, strict liability or
otherwise arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the transactions contemplated therein or any breach thereof (whether or not reasonably foreseeable and even if the first Party had
been advised of the possibility of the other Party incurring such loss or type of loss), and (ii) in the case of Pfizer and its Affiliates, in no event shall Pfizer be liable to Purchaser for any
direct damages except to the extent such direct damages were a result of a material breach of a representation or warranty by Pfizer under this Agreement that directly and solely caused
the damage. In no instance shall Pfizer and its Affiliates be liable to Purchaser (whether arising in warranty, tort (including, without limitation, negligence), contract, strict liability or
otherwise) for any liabilities of Purchaser to any third party, including, without limitation, through contribution, indemnity, or for any claim for which Purchaser would have to
indemnify Pfizer if that claim were brought directly against Pfizer.
(b)The aggregate liability of Pfizer and its Affiliates (whether arising in warranty, tort (including, without limitation, negligence), contract, strict liability or otherwise) arising out of,
under or in connection with this Agreement shall not exceed a sum equivalent to one hundred percent (100%) of the total Price actually received by Pfizer under this Agreement for the
Contracted Doses.

9.3 Excluded Liability.
Nothing in this Agreement excludes or limits the liability of either Party for:
(i) fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation;
(ii) any breach of Section 10 (Confidential Information);
(iii) in the case of Purchaser, the indemnity given by it under Section 8 (Indemnification); or
(iv) in the case of Purchaser, failure to pay the Price for the Product or any other sums properly owing to Pfizer under this Agreement.

9.4 Waiver of Sovereign Immunity.
Purchaser, on behalf of itself and the State of Brazil, expressly and irrevocably waives any right of immunity which either it or its assets may have or acquire in the future (whether
characterized as sovereign immunity or any other type of immunity), including any assets controlled by any agency, instrumentality, central bank, or monetary authority of Brazil, in
respect of any arbitration pursuant to Section 12.2 (Arbitration) or any other legal procedure initiated to confirm or enforce any arbitral decision, order or award, or any settlement in
connection with any arbitration pursuant to Section 12.2 (Arbitration), whether in Brazil or any other foreign jurisdiction, including but not limited to immunity against service of
process, immunity of jurisdiction, or immunity against any judgment rendered by a court or tribunal, immunity against order to enforce the judgment, and immunity against
precautionary seizure of any of its assets. Purchaser, on behalf of itself and the State of Brazil, further covenants and agrees not to assert any such immunity in any proceeding in
connection with this Agreement. Purchaser, on behalf of itself and the State of Brazil, expressly and irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of the courts of New York, or any other court
of competent jurisdiction, for the purposes of enforcing any arbitral decision, order or award, or any settlement in connection with any arbitration pursuant to Section 12.2 and represents
and warrants that the Person signing this Agreement on its behalf has actual authority to submit to such jurisdiction. Purchaser also expressly and irrevocably waives the application of
any Law in any jurisdiction that may otherwise limit or cap its obligation to pay damages arising from or in connection with any Indemnified Claims. Purchaser represents and warrants
that the Person signing this Agreement on its behalf has actual authority to waive such immunity and bind Purchaser and the State of Brazil to the limitations of liability and liability
waivers set forth herein.

9.5 Conditions Precedent to Supply.
Purchaser represents that it has and will continue to have adequate statutory or regulatory authority and adequate funding appropriation to undertake and completely fulfil the
indemnification obligations and provide adequate protection to Suppliers and all Indemnitees from liability for claims and all Losses arising out of or in connection with the Vaccine or
its use. Purchaser hereby covenants and acknowledges and agrees that a condition precedent to supply of the Product hereunder requires that Purchaser shall implement and maintain in
effect such statutory or regulatory requirements or funding appropriation sufficient to meet its obligations in this Agreement and thereafter shall maintain such statutory and regulatory
requirement and funding appropriation, each as applicable, for so long as necessary to meet all of Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement, including, without limitation, any such
obligations that, pursuant to Section 6.5, survive expiration or termination of this Agreement. For clarity, the sufficiency of such statutory or regulatory requirements or funding
appropriation shall be in Suppliers’ sole discretion. Purchaser acknowledges that Suppliers’ supply of Product hereunder is in reliance (without any duty of investigation or confirmation
by or on behalf of Pfizer or its Affiliates), inter alia, on Purchaser’s representations and covenants under this Section 9.5, Purchaser implementing and maintaining in effect the
requirements and funding appropriation policy described in this Section 9.5 and the other representations and warranties made by Purchaser under this Agreement.

10. Confidential Information

10.1 Non-Use and Non-Disclosure. 

Each Recipient shall, and shall cause its Representatives which have access to the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information to, maintain in strict confidence, and shall not disclose to any third party, all Confidential Information observed by or disclosed to it by or on behalf of the Disclosing Party pursuant to this Agreement. Each Recipient shall not use or disclose such Confidential Information except as permitted by this Agreement. Each Recipient shall safeguard the confidential and proprietary nature of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information with at least the same degree of care as it holds its own confidential or proprietary information of like kind, which shall be no less than a reasonable degree of care. The
Recipient and its Representatives may use, copy, and make extracts of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information only in connection with fulfilling its obligations under this Agreement and, without limiting the foregoing, shall not use the Confidential Information for the benefit of the Recipient or any of its Representatives, or for the benefit of any other Person. In the event that Recipient becomes aware of any breach of the obligations contained in this Section 10 (Confidential Information) by it or its Representatives, Recipient shall promptly notify the Disclosing Party in writing of such breach and all facts known to Recipient regarding same. In addition, if Recipient is required to disclose the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information in connection with any court order, statute or Government directive or requirement under any Law, Recipient shall give the Disclosing Party notice of such request, as soon as practicable, before such Confidential Information is disclosed so that the Disclosing Party may seek an appropriate protective order or other remedy, or waive compliance with the relevant provisions of this Agreement. If the Disclosing Party seeks a protective order or other remedy, Recipient shall promptly cooperate with and reasonably assist the Disclosing Party (at the Disclosing Party’s cost) in such efforts. If the Disclosing Party fails to obtain a protective order or waives compliance with the relevant provisions of
this Agreement, Recipient shall disclose only that portion of Confidential Information which its legal counsel determines it is required to disclose. Neither this Agreement nor the performance by either Party hereunder shall transfer to the Recipient any proprietary right, title, interest or claim in or to any of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information (including, but not limited to, any Intellectual Property rights subsisting therein) or be construed as granting a license in its Confidential Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in all cases, (a) Purchaser may not disclose any of the financial or indemnification provisions contained in this Agreement, including, without limitation, the price per dose of Product or
refund ability of the Advance Payment or any information that could reasonably ascertain the price per dose of Product, without the prior written consent of Pfizer, and (b) Pfizer may disclose (i) Confidential Information to its Affiliates and BioNTech without prior written consent of Purchaser, and (ii) upon foreign government request, financial information relating to this Agreement, including cost per dose.

10.2 Recipient Precautions.

In order to comply with the obligations contained in this Section 10 (Confidential Information), Recipient shall take at least the following precautions: (a) Recipient shall exercise all reasonable efforts to prevent unauthorized employees and unauthorized third parties from gaining access to Confidential Information (and in no event less than reasonable care); (b) Recipient shall disclose Confidential Information only to such of its Representatives who have a need to know such Confidential Information to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, before any disclosure of Confidential Information, Recipient shall bind its Representatives receiving such Confidential Information to a written agreement or obligation of confidentiality at least as restrictive as this Agreement; and (c) prior to any disclosure, Recipient shall instruct its Representatives of the confidential nature of, and to maintain the confidentiality of, the Confidential Information. Recipient shall be responsible for all actions of its Representatives, including, without limitation, any breach of the terms hereof, regardless of whether or not such Representatives remain employed or in contractual privity with the Recipient.

10.3 Return of Confidential Information.

Upon the written request of the Disclosing Party, Recipient shall promptly return or, at the Recipient’s option, delete or destroy all Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party (including, without limitation, all copies in whatever medium provided to, or made by, such recipient); provided, however, that, subject to the terms of this Agreement, (i) Recipient shall be entitled to retain one archival copy of such Confidential Information for purposes of determining its obligations under this Agreement; and (ii) Recipient shall not be required to destroy any computer files stored securely by the Recipients or its Affiliates that are created during automatic system back up, or retained for legal purposes by the Recipient and its
Affiliates, provided that such retained Confidential Information shall remain subject to the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding Recipient’s return or destruction of Confidential Information, Recipient shall continue to be bound by its obligation of confidentiality and non-use under this Agreement.

 

10.4 Survival 

The provisions of this Section 10 (Confidential Information) shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement for a period of ten (10) years, except with respect to any information that constitutes a trade secret (as defined under Law), in which case the recipient of such information will continue to be bound by its obligations under this Section 10 (Confidential Information) for so long as such information continues to constitute a trade secret, but in no event for a period of less than the ten (10)-year period specified above.

12. Miscellaneous. 

12.1 Negotiations of Dispute. 

Prior to commencing any arbitration with respect to any controversy, claim, counterclaim, dispute, difference or misunderstanding arising out of or relating to the interpretation or application of any term or provisions of this Agreement, a Party shall provide written notice to the other Party of the existence of such dispute. The Parties shall for a period of thirty (30) days following such notice enter into good faith discussions and negotiations in an attempt to resolve such dispute. If, by the end of such thirty (30) day period, unless such period is extended by mutual written agreement of the Parties, the Parties have been unable to resolve such dispute, either Party may initiate arbitration in accordance with the procedures set
forth in Section 12.2 (Arbitration). The procedures specified in this Section 12.1 (Negotiations of Dispute) are a precondition to the initiation of arbitration by a Party, in connection with disputes between the Parties arising from or related to this Agreement or a Purchase Order; provided, however, that a Party may seek a preliminary injunction or other preliminary judicial relief, without attempting to resolve such dispute as provided in this Section 12.1 (Negotiations of Dispute), if in its judgment such action is necessary to avoid irreparable harm.
The Parties expressly and irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of New York, New York, U.S.A, for any such injunctive relief. Further, the requirement to attempt to resolve a dispute in accordance with this Section 12.1 (Negotiations of Dispute) does not affect a Party’s right to terminate this Agreement as provided in Section 6 hereof, and neither Party shall be required to follow these procedures prior to terminating the Agreement. The failure of either Party to participate in good faith discussions and negotiations in an attempt to resolve such dispute shall not delay the date by which the other Party may initiate arbitration under this Section 12.1 (Negotiations of Dispute).


12.2 Arbitration.

Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of, relating to, or in connection with this Agreement, including with respect to the formation, applicability, breach, termination, validity or
enforceability thereof, or relating to arbitrability or the scope and application of this Section 12.2 (Arbitration), shall be finally resolved by arbitration. The arbitration will be at law and
shall be conducted by three arbitrators, in accordance with the Rules of Arbitration of the International Court of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce (“ICC”). The claimant shall nominate an arbitrator in its request for arbitration. The respondent shall nominate an arbitrator within thirty (30) days of the receipt of the request for arbitration. The two (2) arbitrators nominated by the Parties shall nominate a third arbitrator, in consultation with the Parties, within thirty (30) days after the confirmation of the later-nominated arbitrator. The third arbitrator shall act as chair of the tribunal. If any of the three (3) arbitrators are not nominated within the time prescribed above, then the ICC shall appoint the
arbitrator(s). The seat of the arbitration shall be New York, New York, USA and it shall be conducted in the English language. The Parties undertake to maintain confidentiality as to all
aspects of the arbitration, including its existence, content and result, and as to all submissions, correspondence and evidence relating to the arbitration proceedings. The foregoing sentence shall survive the termination of the arbitral proceedings. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Party may disclose information relating to the arbitration proceedings to the extent that disclosure is required to protect or pursue a legal right related to the arbitration; enforce or challenge an award in bona fide legal proceedings; respond to a bona fide compulsory order or request for information of a governmental or regulatory body; make a disclosure required by securities Laws, rules of a securities exchange, or other similar Laws, regulations,
or rules; or seek legal, accounting, or other professional services. The costs of the arbitration, including, without limitation, the Parties’ reasonable legal fees, shall be borne by the unsuccessful Party or Parties. However, the arbitral tribunal may apportion such costs between the Parties if it determines that apportionment is reasonable, taking into account the circumstances of the case. The arbitration award shall be final and binding on the Parties, and the Parties undertake to carry out any award without delay. Judgment upon the award may be entered by any court having jurisdiction of the award or having jurisdiction over the relevant Party or its assets.
 

12.3 Publicity.
A Party shall not use the name, trade name, service marks, trademarks, trade dress or logos of the other Party in publicity releases, advertising or any other publication, without the other
Party’s prior written consent in each instance. Purchaser shall not make, or permit any person to make, any public announcement concerning the existence, subject matter or terms of
this Agreement, the wider transactions contemplated by it, or the relationship between the Parties (except as required by Law, and subject to the protections set forth in Section 10.1), without the prior written consent of Pfizer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Any press release regarding this Agreement is subject to Pfizer’s review and prior written approval.


12.4 Governing Law
All disputes shall be governed by the Laws of the State of New York, USA, without regard to conflict of Law principles other than Section 5-1401 of the New York General Obligations Law, except that any dispute regarding the arbitrability or the scope and application of this Section shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act of the United States.


12.5 Third Party Rights.

(a) Purchaser agrees the applicable rights granted or provided to Pfizer under this Agreement are also granted or provided to Pfizer’s Affiliates or to BioNTech to the extent that those
rights relate to such Affiliates or BioNTech, including but not limited to the indemnification in Section 8.1 (each a “Third Party Beneficiary” and together the “Third Party
Beneficiaries”). Each Third Party Beneficiary shall be entitled to enforce the terms of this Agreement; provided that, to the extent permissible by Law and where reasonably
practicable, any claims, demands or actions from any Third Party Beneficiary shall be brought by Pfizer itself on behalf of the relevant Third Party Beneficiary.
(b) Any Losses suffered by a Third Party Beneficiary will not be treated as being indirect solely because it has been suffered by a Third Party Beneficiary and not by Pfizer directly.

12.6 Relationship of the Parties.
The relationship hereby established between Purchaser and Pfizer is solely that of independent contractors. Neither Party has authority to act or make any agreements or representations
on behalf of the other Party. This Agreement is not intended to create, and shall not be construed as creating, between Pfizer and Purchaser, the relationship of principal and agent,
employer and employee, joint venturers, co-partners, or any other such relationship, the existence of which is expressly denied. 

12.7 Assignment; Binding Effect.
Neither Purchaser nor Pfizer shall assign any of its rights or delegate or subcontract any of its duties and obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other
Party, which may be withheld at such Party’s discretion, provided that Pfizer, without Purchaser’s consent, may assign, delegate or subcontract any of its duties and obligations under
this Agreement to an Affiliate of Pfizer, BioNTech or an Affiliate of BioNTech. Any such attempted assignment of rights or delegation or subcontracting of duties without the required
prior written consent of the other Party shall be void and ineffective. Any such assignment, delegation or subcontracting consented to by a Party in writing shall not relieve the other Party of its responsibilities and liabilities hereunder and such assigning Party shall remain liable to other Party for the conduct and performance of each permitted assignee, delegate and subcontractor hereunder. This Agreement shall apply to, inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Except for the Third Party Beneficiaries set forth under Section 12.5(a), the Parties agree that this Agreement is not intended by either Party to give any benefits, rights, privileges, actions or
remedies to any Person or entity, partnership, firm or corporation as a third party beneficiary or otherwise under any theory of Law.

12.8 Force Majeure.
Neither Party shall be liable for any failure to perform or any delays in performance, and neither Party shall be deemed to be in breach or default of its obligations set forth in this Agreement, if, to the extent and for so long as, such failure or delay is due to any causes that are beyond its reasonable control and not to its acts or omissions, including, without limitation, such causes as acts of God, natural disasters, flood, severe storm, earthquake, civil disturbance, lockout, riot, order of any court or administrative body, embargo, acts of Government (other than Purchaser), war (whether or not declared), acts of terrorism, the impact on a Party of an outbreak of any disease or an epidemic or pandemic or other similar causes (“Force Majeure Event”). Failure or inability to pay shall not be a basis for a Force Majeure Event under this Agreement. In the event of a Force Majeure Event, the Party prevented from or delayed in performing shall promptly give notice to the other Party and shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to avoid or minimize the delay.
 

12.9 Severability.
If and solely to the extent that any court or tribunal of competent jurisdiction holds any provision of this Agreement to be unenforceable in a final non-appealable order, such unenforceable provision shall be stricken and the remainder of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby. In such event, the Parties shall in good faith attempt to replace any unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a provision that is enforceable and that comes as close as possible to expressing the intention of the original provision.
 

12.10 Non-Waiver; Remedies. A waiver by any Party of any term or condition of this Agreement in any instance shall not be deemed or construed to be a waiver of such term or condition for the future, or of any subsequent breach thereof. All remedies specified in this Agreement shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedies provided at Law or in equity.

12.11 Further Documents.
Each Party hereto agrees to execute such further documents and take such further steps as may be reasonably necessary or desirable to effectuate the purposes of this Agreement.

12.12 Forms.
The Parties recognize that, during the Term, a Purchase Order acknowledgment form or similar routine document (collectively, “Forms”) may be used to implement or administer provisions of this Agreement. The Parties agree that the terms of this Agreement shall prevail in the event of any conflict between terms of this Agreement and the terms of such Forms, and any additional or different terms contained in such Forms shall not apply to this Agreement.

12.13 Headings.
Headings of Sections or other parts of this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement or change the meaning of
this Agreement.

12.14 Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement, and shall become effective when signed by each of the Parties hereto and delivered to the other Party in accordance with the means set forth in Section 11 (Notices) or by reliable electronic means (with receipt electronically confirmed).

12.15 Electronic Delivery and Storage.

incorporated by reference, constitute the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to its subject matter and merges and supersedes all prior discussions and writings with respect to
thereto. Except as otherwise set out herein; no modification or alteration of this Agreement shall be binding upon the Parties unless contained in a writing signed by a duly authorized
agent for each respective Party and specifically referring hereto or thereto. 

12.17 Rule of Construction.
The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event that an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall
be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of
this Agreement.
