7.2 Indemnification Procedure. To be eligible to be indemnified hereunder, the indemnified Party will provide the indemnifying Party with prompt written notice of the third-party claim giving rise to the indemnification obligation pursuant to this Article 7, but the indemnified Party’s failure to provide such notice does not relieve the indemnifying Party of its obligation, except to the extent that such failure materially prejudices the indemnifying Party. The indemnifying Party will have the right to control the defense (with the reasonable cooperation of the indemnified Party) and settlement of any such claim; provided, however, that the indemnifying Party will not enter into any settlement that admits fault or wrongdoing of the indemnified Party without the indemnified Party’s prior written consent. The indemnified Party will have the right to participate, at its own expense and with counsel of its choice, in the defense of any claim or suit that has been assumed by the indemnifying Party.

7.3 Limitation of Liability. THE LIABILITY AND OBLIGATIONS OF GRAIL, AND THE REMEDIES OF CUSTOMER, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE LIMITED TO REPEATING ANY TESTS FOR WHICH A RESULT CANNOT BE GENERATED OR, AT THE SOLE OPTION OF GRAIL, NOT BILLING CUSTOMER FOR SUCH TESTS. ANY CLAIMS BY CUSTOMER REGARDING THE TESTS MUST BE REPORTED IN WRITING TO GRAIL WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS AFTER THE DISCOVERY THEREOF, AND IN ANY EVENT WITHIN ONE YEAR FROM THE PERFORMANCE OF SUCH TESTS BY GRAIL, OR SUCH CLAIMS WILL BE DEEMED WAIVED.

8.0 Miscellaneous

8.1 Records. The Parties will maintain records and data related to its obligations under this Agreement in accordance with applicable laws and any specific record-keeping obligations included in the Galleri® Agreement.

8.3 Force Majeure. In the event either Party will be delayed or hindered in or prevented from the performance of any act required hereunder by reasons of strike, lockouts, labor troubles, pandemic, restrictive government or judicial orders or decrees, riots, insurrection, war, Acts of God, inclement weather or other similar reason or cause beyond such Party’s reasonable control, then performance of such act will be excused for the period of such delay, and the affected Party will receive time to perform the act equal to the period of delay. Notice of the start and stop of any such force majeure will be promptly provided to the other Party, and the affected Party will use commercially reasonable efforts to end the delay and resume performance under this Agreement as soon as reasonably practicable.

8.5 Price Reductions. GRAIL may reduce any price at any time by providing advance written notice of a price reduction change and its effective date (“Change Effective Date”) to Customer. Customer’s failure to deliver written objection to such change to GRAIL prior to the Change Effective Date will constitute Customer’s acceptance of such change. Should Customer object, GRAIL may elect to continue to provide the Test to Customer at the price then in effect. Should Customer accept, the new price will apply to any Test results reports delivered for any Specimen collected after the Change Effective Date, unless and until a new price is agreed. Notwithstanding Section 8.4, such notice may be sent by email, and will be deemed to have been delivered and received on the next business day after it is sent (as recorded on the device from which the sender sent the email) unless the sender receives an automated message that the email has not been delivered.

In addition to any other rights and remedies available to GRAIL, interest will be payable on any payments that are not paid when due under this Agreement at a monthly rate of 1.5% or the maximum applicable legal rate, if less, calculated on the total number of days that payment is delinquent. In the event Customer fails to make payments due, GRAIL reserves the right to suspend providing additional Tests and/or to require, upon request by GRAIL, that Customer immediately cease use of all unused Collection Materials and return any such unused Collection Materials to GRAIL, as set forth below in Section 4.3, and Customer will comply.

3.2 All payments of amounts owing to GRAIL will be made at the account or address designated by GRAIL in writing.

4.0 Materials and Specimens

4.1 With respect to each Test, Customer or its designee will transfer to GRAIL blood specimens from patient(s) (“Specimens”). As between the Parties, GRAIL owns all rights, title and interest in and to the Specimens and will have sole right to use and analyze the Specimens and any related data consistent with the permissions granted by the relevant patient(s) and applicable laws. Customer will have no access to (i) Specimens after they are transferred to GRAIL and (ii) such related data other than the Test results provided in GRAIL’s standard Test results report form.

4.2 GRAIL or its designee will deliver to Customer the kits (the “Collection Materials”) necessary for collection of the Specimens for the Tests pursuant to the applicable Purchase Form. GRAIL will retain all right, title, and interest in and to any Collection Materials provided under this Agreement. Customer will ensure that such Collection Material in its possession or control is stored in accordance with the storage condition requirements provided by GRAIL. Customer may request additional Collection Materials from GRAIL, as needed, from time to time. To the extent any Collection Materials in Customer’s possession or control expire prior to use by Customer, Customer will notify GRAIL and promptly ship such expired Collection Material back to GRAIL, or, if instructed by GRAIL, promptly destroy such Collection Materials. Unless otherwise specified in the Purchase Form, GRAIL will be responsible for all expenses for shipping of Collection Materials to Customer and for Specimens and expired Collection Materials to GRAIL (other than any expedited shipping fees specifically requested by Customer which Customer will bear).

Customer will ensure that a completed Test requisition form is included with each Specimen. Customer expressly acknowledges and agrees that to the extent any Specimens are not collected, handled and/or shipped in accordance with the instructions provided and/or to the extent any information in the Test requisition form is incomplete, GRAIL may be unable to process the Test in a timely manner or at all.

4.3 In the event Customer fails to make payments due and/or GRAIL suspends providing additional Tests in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or if GRAIL determines, in its sole discretion, that Customer has otherwise materially breached the terms of this Agreement, GRAIL reserves the right, in addition to the other remedies available hereunder, to cease the provisioning of Collection Materials to Customer and Customer, upon request from GRAIL, will immediately cease the use of all unused Collection Materials and return all unused Collection Materials to GRAIL within three (3) business days of the request. Customer will be responsible for all costs, including shipping costs, and liabilities associated with the return of such Collection Materials.

All such information in this Section 5.4 is Confidential Information and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

5.5 Notwithstanding Section 5.2 above, the Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information to the extent and to the persons or entities required under applicable governmental law, rule, regulation or order, provided that the Receiving Party (i) first gives prompt written notice of such disclosure requirement to the Disclosing Party so as to enable the Disclosing Party to seek any limitations on or exemptions from such disclosure requirement and (ii) reasonably cooperates in any such efforts by the Disclosing Party at the Disclosing Party’s request.
