12.2Changes.
a.
Each Party recognizes and acknowledges that changes to this Agreement arising from requirements of Regulatory Authorities applicable to Customized Insulet Devices (each a “Change”) may be necessary from time to time.

c.
In the event of a conflict between or among Change Orders, a Change Order dated later in time will control over a Change Order dated earlier in time. If a Change is mandated by a change in Applicable Laws, and failure to comply would render either Party’s performance under this Agreement or the use of the Customized Insulet Device illegal, each Party’s performance shall be temporarily suspended only to the extent such performance is illegal until such time as the Parties confer and the Parties shall mutually agree to a course of action and delegate responsibility for implementing such Change in order to comply with such amended Applicable Laws.

Exhibit 2.1.1(vii)
Dispute Resolution Process

With respect to each Trigger Event Assertion Dispute, during the [*] after notice to Insulet from Amgen that Amgen desires to attempt to resolve through negotiation the Trigger Event Assertion Dispute (such period (which may be extended by mutual agreement of the Parties), the “Executive Negotiations Period”; and such negotiations, the “Executive Negotiations”), the Parties shall promptly meet (either telephonically or in person) and attempt in good faith to resolve the Trigger Event Assertion Dispute by negotiation between executives (vice president level or higher) who have authority to settle the controversy. All negotiations pursuant to this clause are confidential and shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of applicable rules of evidence.
Any Trigger Event Assertion Dispute which is not resolved by the Executive Negotiations during the Executive Negotiations Period shall be finally resolved by the independent arbitration panel (the “Arbitrator Panel”) in accordance with the 2013 Administered Arbitration Rules of the International Institute for Conflict Prevention & Resolution Rules, as the same may be amended from time to time. The arbitration shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§1 et seq., and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof. The place of arbitration shall be Boston, Massachusetts.
With respect to any Trigger Event Assertion Dispute which is not resolved by Executive Negotiations, within [*] after the end of the Executive Negotiations Period, the Parties shall meet (either in person or telephonically) and attempt to agree on the appointment of an independent arbitrator panel (the “Arbitrator Panel”). For purposes of an arbitrator or the Arbitrator Panel, “independent” shall mean having no past or present family, business or other relationship with either of the Parties or any of their respective Affiliates, directors, or officers, unless following full disclosure of all such relationships, the Parties agree in writing to waive such requirement with respect to an individual. If within [*] after the Executive Negotiations Period, the Parties are unable to agree on a single independent arbitrator for the Arbitrator Panel, then, within [*] thereafter, each Party will designate an independent arbitrator, and the two independent arbitrators together will select a third independent arbitrator within [*] after having been designated themselves by the Parties (in which case, the Arbitrator Panel will consist of three independent arbitrators). Within [*] after the designation of the Arbitrator Panel, each Party shall submit a written statement of its positions on the [*] or [*], as the case may be, to the Arbitrator Panel and the other Party. Each Party shall have [*] to submit a written response thereto including supporting information. The Arbitrator Panel shall have the right to meet with the Parties, either alone or together. There will be no discovery allowed. For the sake of clarity, the term “discovery” as used herein includes without limitation document requests and production, depositions, interrogatories, and requests for admission. No later than [*] after the designation of the Arbitrator Panel or such later date as agreed to in writing by the Parties, the Arbitrator Panel shall make a written decision (including the reasons for such) on whether a [*] or [*], as the case may be, has occurred. The decision of the Arbitrator Panel shall be final, binding and enforceable and shall be appealable only (a) following denial by the Arbitration Panel of a request for reconsideration submitted to the Arbitration Panel by a Party no later than [*] after the Arbitration Panel issued its written decision, and, thereafter, (b) pursuant to Section 10 of the Federal Arbitration Act.

The Party against whom a final decision is rendered shall pay the fees and costs of the Arbitrator Panel and the CPR Institute for Dispute Resolution. Otherwise, each Party shall bear all of its other costs and expenses of the dispute resolution process set forth in this Section.
