In any such case, SIEGFRIED shall pay MOMENTA an amount equal to the difference between the amount previously paid by MOMENTA and the Actual Cost. 9.5 All rights and obligations as set forth in Sections 3.3, 5.2, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 7.5, 7.7, 7.8, 7.9, 9.4, 13.3, 13.4 and 13.5 and Articles 8 and 12 shall continue irrespective of any expiration or termination of this Agreement. 9.6 The waiver by the parties of any breach, covenant or condition herein contained shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same or any other term, covenant or condition herein. 10. PAYMENT AND DELIVERIES 10.1 MOMENTA shall pay SIEGFRIED a total fee of Four Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand U.S. Dollars ($425,000) for the DEVELOPMENT and PRODUCTION. Such fee shall become due in accordance with the timetable set forth in Appendix D. SIEGFRIED shall invoice MOMENTA as payments become due and MOMENTA shall pay such invoices within thirty (30) days thereafter. 10.2 If, during the course of DEVELOPMENT, it becomes reasonably apparent to SIEGFRIED that (a) circumstances exist which could not have been foreseen by the parties or which were excluded from the assumptions made by both parties in agreeing to the fee set forth in Section 10.1 and (b) such circumstances render the completion of the DEVELOPMENT and PRODUCTION materially more costly than had been foreseen by the parties, SIEGFRIED shall notify MOMENTA in writing. Upon receipt of such notification, the parties shall use good faith efforts to agree on as minimal a modification of the fee set forth in Section 10.1 as is reasonably required by the unforseen or changed circumstance. If the parties agree on an associated increase in cost, SIEGFRIED shall proceed with the DEVELOPMENT and PRODUCTION.

PRODUCT QUALITY, INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE 13.1 In the case of a material error by SIEGFRIED which results in an inability to achieve the goals for the DEVELOPMENT or PRODUCTION within the parameters or timelines agreed to in Appendices B and E, SIEGFRIED shall inform MOMENTA immediately and exercise diligent efforts to correct the error so that the goals for the DEVELOPMENT and PRODUCTION are achieved within the parameters agreed to in Appendix B as soon as possible thereafter. 13.2 In the event that MOMENTA believes it is justified in rejecting PRODUCT because it does not meet the requirements of Section 2.5, MOMENTA shall inform SIEGFRIED accordingly with a written notice delivered within forty-five (45) days from the date of receiving the PRODUCT. In any such case, the parties shall repeat the disagreed upon sampling and analysis. Should MOMENTA still believe it is justified in rejecting the PRODUCT following such repeated sampling and analysis, MOMENTA shall have the right to engage an independent third party to perform the disagreed upon sampling and analysis. Should the results show that the PRODUCT does not meet the requirements of Section 2.5, SIEGFRIED shall exercise diligent efforts to replace the PRODUCT as soon as possible thereafter and shall be responsible for the cost of the replacement raw materials (other than the heparin) and the sampling and analysis conducted by the independent third party. 13.3 MOMENTA shall, at all times during the term of this Agreement and thereafter, indemnify, defend and hold harmless SIEGFRIED, and its directors, officers, employees and AFFILIATES (the "Other SIEGFRIED Indemnified Parties"), from and against any and all third party product liability claims, proceedings, demands and liabilities, of any kind whatsoever, including legal expenses and reasonable attorneys' fees, arising out of the death of or injury to any person or out of any damage to property resulting from the production, use or consumption of any ENOXAPARIN or PRODUCT developed or produced pursuant to this Agreement, excluding any such losses resulting from the failure of the PRODUCT to meet the requirements of Section 2.5 or the negligence or misconduct of SIEGFRIED. 13.4 SIEGFRIED shall, at all times during the term of this Agreement and thereafter, indemnify, defend and hold harmless MOMENTA, and its directors, officers, employees and AFFILIATES (the "Other MOMENTA Indemnified Parties"), from and against any and all third party product liability claims, proceedings, demands and liabilities, of any kind whatsoever, including legal expenses and reasonable attorneys' fees, arising out of the death of or injury to any person or out of any damage to property resulting from the production, use or consumption of any ENOXAPARIN or PRODUCT developed or produced pursuant to this Agreement where such losses result from the failure of the PRODUCT to meet the requirements of Section 2.5 or the negligence or misconduct of SIEGFRIED. 13.5 Prior to the first use in humans of any ENOXAPARIN or PRODUCT developed or produced pursuant to this Agreement, each party shall obtain and carry in full force and effect commercial general liability insurance, including clinical trial product liability insurance, which shall protect the other party with respect to events covered by Sections 13.3 and 13.4.
