5.3 Beginning on the Second Closing Date, Sanofi Pasteur shall pay TBio, within [**] of receipt of a properly submitted invoice, a sum of [**] dollars ($[**]) per year, payable in four quarterly payments of $[**], to serve as pre-payment for Manufacturing Costs and the [**]% or [**]% mark-up, as applicable, actually incurred hereunder. The first such quarterly payment shall be eligible for invoicing at the beginning of the first full calendar quarter following the Second Closing Date. In the event that Manufacturing Costs and the [**]% or [**]% mark-up, as applicable, in a given quarter are less than the amount of the quarterly pre-payment, TBio shall credit the difference to future Manufacturing Costs and the [**]% or [**]% mark-up, as applicable, incurred in the same calendar year.
