NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements and covenants hereinafter set forth, OrthoCellix and Ocugen hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

SERVICES

Section 1.01    Provision of Services.

(a) Ocugen agrees to provide, or to cause its Affiliates to provide, the services (the "Services") set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto (as such exhibit may be amended or supplemented pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, collectively, the "Service Exhibit") to OrthoCellix for the respective periods and on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and in the Service Exhibit. For all purposes of this Agreement, Ocugen and OrthoCellix are not Affiliates of each other.

(b) Notwithstanding the contents of the Service Exhibit, Ocugen agrees to (a) respond in good faith to any reasonable request by OrthoCellix for access to any additional services that are necessary for the operation of the NeoCart Program and which are not currently contemplated in the Service Exhibit (the “Additional Services”), and (b) provide the Additional Services for the period requested by OrthoCellix, at a price to be agreed upon after good faith negotiations between the parties. Any such Additional Services so provided by Ocugen shall constitute Services under this Agreement and be subject in all respects to the provisions of this Agreement as if fully set forth on the Service Exhibit as of the date hereof.

(c) The parties hereto acknowledge the transitional nature of the Services. Accordingly, as promptly as practicable following the execution of this Agreement, OrthoCellix agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to make a transition of each Service to its own internal organization or to obtain alternate third-party sources to provide the Services.

(d) Subject to Section 2.03, Section 2.04 and Section 3.05, the obligations of Ocugen under this Agreement to provide Services shall terminate with respect to each Service on the later of (i) the end date specified in the Service Exhibit and (ii) Ocugen’s completion of

​

the respective Service as determined by OrthoCellix in its good faith discretion (the "End Date"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties acknowledge and agree that OrthoCellix may determine from time to time that it does not require all the Services set out on the Service Exhibit or that it does not require such Services for the entire period up to the applicable End Date. Accordingly, OrthoCellix may terminate any Service, in whole and not in part, upon notification to Ocugen in writing of any such determination.

Section 1.02    Standard of Service.

(a) Ocugen represents, warrants, and agrees that the Services shall be provided in good faith, in accordance with Law, and, except as specifically provided in the Service Exhibit, in a manner generally consistent with the historical provision of the Services and with the same standard of care as historically provided. Subject to Section 1.03, Ocugen agrees to assign sufficient resources and qualified personnel as are reasonably required to perform the Services in accordance with the standards set forth in the preceding sentence.

(b) Except as expressly set forth in Section 1.02(a) or in any contract entered into hereunder, Ocugen makes no representations and warranties of any kind, implied or express, with respect to the Services, including, without limitation, no warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, which are specifically disclaimed. OrthoCellix acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement does not create a fiduciary relationship, partnership, joint venture, or relationship of trust or agency between the parties and that all Services are provided by Ocugen as an independent contractor.

Section 1.03    Third-Party Service Providers. Ocugen shall have the right to hire third-party subcontractors to provide all or part of any Service hereunder; provided, however, that in the event such subcontracting is inconsistent with past practices, Ocugen shall obtain the prior written consent of OrthoCellix to hire such subcontractor, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. Ocugen shall in all cases retain responsibility for the provision to OrthoCellix of Services to be performed by any third-party service provider or subcontractor or by any of Ocugen's Affiliates.

Section 1.04    Access to Premises.

(a) In order to enable the provision of the Services by Ocugen, OrthoCellix agrees that it shall provide to Ocugen's and its Affiliates' employees and any third-party service providers or subcontractors who provide Services, access to the facilities,

​

assets, and books and records comprising the NeoCart Assets, in all cases to the extent necessary for Ocugen to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement.

(b) Ocugen agrees that all of its and its Affiliates' employees and any third-party service providers and subcontractors, when on the property of OrthoCellix or when given access to any equipment, computer, software, network, or files owned or controlled by OrthoCellix, shall conform to the policies and procedures of OrthoCellix concerning health, safety, and security which are made known to Ocugen in advance in writing.

ARTICLE II

COMPENSATION

Section 2.01    Responsibility for Wages and Fees. For such time as any employees of Ocugen or any of its Affiliates are providing the Services to OrthoCellix under this Agreement, (a) such employees will remain employees of Ocugen or such Affiliate, as applicable, and shall not be deemed to be employees of OrthoCellix for any purpose, and (b) subject to Section 2.02(c), Ocugen or such Affiliate, as applicable, shall be solely responsible for the payment and provision of all wages, bonuses and commissions, employee benefits, including severance and worker's compensation, and the withholding and payment of applicable Taxes relating to such employment.

Section 2.02    Terms of Payment and Related Matters.

(a) As consideration for provision of the Services, OrthoCellix shall pay Ocugen the amount specified for each Service in the Service Exhibit. In addition to such amount, in the event that Ocugen or any of its Affiliates incurs reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses in the provision of any Service, including, without limitation, license fees and payments to third-party service providers or subcontractors, but excluding payments made to employees of Ocugen or any of its Affiliates pursuant to Section 2.01 (such included expenses, collectively, "Out-of-Pocket Costs"), OrthoCellix shall reimburse Ocugen for all such Out-of-Pocket Costs in accordance with the invoicing procedures set forth in Section 2.02(b).

(b) As more fully provided in the Service Exhibit and subject to the terms and conditions therein:

(i) Ocugen shall provide OrthoCellix, in accordance with Section 6.01 of this Agreement, with monthly invoices ("Invoices"), which shall set forth in reasonable detail, with such

​

supporting documentation as OrthoCellix may reasonably request with respect to Out-of-Pocket Costs, amounts payable under this Agreement; and

(ii) payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be made within thirty (30) days after the date of receipt of an Invoice by OrthoCellix from Ocugen.

Section 2.03    Extension of Services. The parties agree that, subject to Ocugen’s performance of the applicable Service in all respects prior to the End Date, Ocugen shall not be obligated to perform any Service after the applicable End Date. If OrthoCellix desires and Ocugen agrees to continue to perform any of the Services after the applicable End Date, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to determine an amount that compensates Ocugen for all of its costs for such performance, including the time of its employees and its Out-of-Pocket Costs. The Services so performed by Ocugen after the applicable End Date shall continue to constitute Services under this Agreement and be subject in all respects to the provisions of this Agreement for the duration of the agreed-upon extension period.

Section 2.04    Terminated Services. Upon termination or expiration of any or all Services pursuant to this Agreement, or upon the termination of this Agreement in its entirety, Ocugen shall have no further obligation to provide the applicable terminated Services, and OrthoCellix shall have no obligation to pay any future compensation or Out-of-Pocket Costs relating to such Services, other than for or in respect of Services already provided in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and received by OrthoCellix prior to such termination.

Section 2.05    Invoice Disputes. In the event of an Invoice dispute, OrthoCellix shall deliver a written statement to Ocugen no later than ten (10) days prior to the date payment is due on the disputed Invoice listing all disputed items and providing a reasonably detailed description of each disputed item. Amounts not so disputed shall be deemed accepted and shall be paid, notwithstanding disputes on other items, within the period set forth in Section 2.02(b). The parties shall seek to resolve all such disputes expeditiously and in good faith. Ocugen shall continue performing the Services in accordance with this Agreement pending resolution of any dispute.

Section 2.06    No Right of Setoff. Each of the parties hereby acknowledges that it shall have no right under this Agreement to setoff any amounts owed (or to become due and owing) to the other party, whether under this Agreement, the Merger Agreement, the

​

Contribution Agreement or otherwise, against any other amount owed (or to become due and owing) to it by the other party.

Section 2.07    Taxes. Ocugen shall be responsible for all sales or use Taxes imposed or assessed as a result of the provision of Services by Ocugen.

ARTICLE III

TERMINATION

Section 3.01    Termination of Agreement. Subject to Section 3.04, this Agreement shall terminate in its entirety (i) on the date upon which Ocugen shall have no continuing obligation to perform any Services as a result of each of their expiration or termination in accordance with Section 1.01(d) or Section 3.02 or (ii) in accordance with Section 3.03.

Section 3.02    Breach. Any party (the "Non-Breaching Party") may terminate this Agreement with respect to any Service, in whole but not in part, at any time upon prior written notice to the other party (the "Breaching Party") if the Breaching Party has failed (other than pursuant to Section 3.05) to perform any of its material obligations under this Agreement relating to such Service, and such failure shall have continued without cure for a period of fifteen (15) days after receipt by the Breaching Party of a written notice of such failure from the Non-Breaching party seeking to terminate such service. For the avoidance of doubt, non-payment by OrthoCellix for a Service provided by Ocugen in accordance with this Agreement and not the subject of a good-faith dispute shall be deemed a breach for purposes of this Section 3.02.

Section 3.03    Insolvency. In the event that either party hereto shall (i) file a petition in bankruptcy, (ii) become or be declared insolvent, or become the subject of any proceedings (not dismissed within sixty (60) days) related to its liquidation, insolvency, or the appointment of a receiver, (iii) make an assignment on behalf of all or substantially all of its creditors, or (iv) take any corporate action for its winding up or dissolution, then the other party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by providing written notice in accordance with Section 6.01.

​

Section 3.04    Effect of Termination. Upon termination of this Agreement in its entirety pursuant to Section 3.01, all obligations of the parties hereto shall terminate, except for the provisions of Section 2.02, Section 2.04, Section 2.06, Section 2.07, this Article III, Article IV, Article V and Article VI, which shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement.

Section 3.05    Force Majeure. The obligations of Ocugen under this Agreement with respect to any Service shall be suspended during the period and to the extent that Ocugen is prevented or hindered from providing such Service, or OrthoCellix is prevented from receiving such Service, due to any of the following causes beyond such party's reasonable control (such causes, "Force Majeure Events"): (i) acts of God, (ii) flood, fire, or explosion, (iii) war, invasion, riot, or other civil unrest, (iv) Governmental Order or Law, (v) actions, embargoes, or blockades in effect on or after the date of this Agreement, (vi) [reserved], (vii) national or regional emergency, (viii) strikes, labor stoppages or slowdowns or other industrial disturbances, (ix) shortage of adequate power or transportation facilities, (x) pandemics, or (xi) any other event which is beyond the reasonable control of such party. The party suffering a Force Majeure Event shall give notice of suspension as soon as reasonably practicable to the other party stating the date and extent of such suspension and the cause thereof, and Ocugen shall resume the performance of its obligations as soon as reasonably practicable after the removal of the cause. Neither OrthoCellix nor Ocugen shall be liable for the nonperformance or delay in performance of its respective obligations under this Agreement when such failure is due to a Force Majeure Event. The applicable End Date for any Service so suspended shall be automatically extended for a period of time equal to the time lost by reason of the suspension.

ARTICLE IV

CONFIDENTIALITY

Section 4.01    Confidentiality.

(a) During the term of this Agreement and thereafter, the parties hereto shall, and shall instruct their respective Representatives to, maintain in confidence and not disclose the other party's financial, technical, sales, marketing, development, personnel, and other information, records, or data, including, without limitation, customer lists, supplier lists, trade secrets, designs, product formulations, product specifications, or any other proprietary or

​

confidential information, however recorded or preserved, whether written or oral (any such information, "Confidential Information"). Each party hereto shall use the same degree of care, but no less than reasonable care, to protect the other party's Confidential Information as it uses to protect its own Confidential Information of like nature. Unless otherwise authorized in any other agreement between the parties, any party receiving any Confidential Information of the other party (the "Receiving Party") may use Confidential Information only for the purposes of fulfilling its obligations under this Agreement (the "Permitted Purpose"). Any Receiving Party may disclose such Confidential Information only to its Representatives who have a need to know such information for the Permitted Purpose and who have been advised of the terms of this Section 4.01, and the Receiving Party shall be liable for any breach of these confidentiality provisions by such Persons. Any Receiving Party may disclose such Confidential Information to the extent such Confidential Information is required to be disclosed by a Governmental Order, in which case the Receiving Party shall promptly notify, to the extent possible, the disclosing party (the "Disclosing Party"), and take reasonable steps to assist in contesting such Governmental Order or in protecting the Disclosing Party's rights prior to disclosure, and in which case the Receiving Party shall only disclose such Confidential Information that it is advised by its counsel in writing that it is legally bound to disclose under such Governmental Order.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, "Confidential Information" shall not include any information that (1) the Receiving Party can demonstrate: (i) was publicly known at the time of disclosure to it, or has become publicly known through no act of the Receiving Party or its Representatives in breach of this Section 4.01; (ii) was rightfully received from a third party without a duty of confidentiality; or (iii) was developed by it independently without any reliance on the Confidential Information or (2) the Receiving Party receives as part of the Services that is required to be disclosed as part of OrthoCellix’s operation of the NeoCart Program.

(c) Upon demand by the Disclosing Party at any time, or upon expiration or termination of this Agreement with respect to any Service, the Receiving Party agrees promptly to return or destroy, at the Disclosing Party's option, all Confidential Information. If such Confidential Information is destroyed, an authorized officer of the Receiving Party shall certify to such destruction in writing.
