After the Royalty Threshold has been met and LICENSEE has recouped all of its costs directly related to the commercialization of the Cytogenetics Interpretation System (License E) and the Flow Cytometry System (License F), LICENSEE shall pay a royalty of fifty percent (50%) of the Net Revenue it derives from any sublicensing arrangements it has in place for such Licenses E and F. For the purposes of this Agreement, LICENSEE’s costs directly relating to commercializing Licenses E and F shall not be offset against any Net Revenue from such licenses while Milestone Payments are due and payable pursuant to Section 3.1, but rather will be offset against Net Revenue derived from Licenses E and F after all Milestone Payments have been made.

3.5 Payment Method. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, all payments by LICENSEE to LICENSOR under this Agreement shall be paid in United States dollars, and all such payments shall be made by check or wire transfer in immediately available funds to such address and/or account as LICENSOR shall designate before such payment is due.

3.6 Exchange Control. If at any time legal restrictions prevent the prompt remittance of part or all royalties with respect to any country where a Licensed Use is sold, payment shall be made through such lawful means or methods as LICENSOR and LICENSEE shall reasonably determine.

3.7 Reports, Exchange Rates. During the term of this Agreement following the First Commercial Use of a Licensed Use, LICENSEE shall furnish to LICENSOR a quarterly written report showing in reasonably specific detail, (a) the gross sales of each Licensed Use sold by LICENSEE and its Affiliates during the reporting period and the calculation of Net Revenue from such gross sales; (b) the royalties payable in United States dollars, if any, which shall have accrued hereunder based upon Net Revenue of each Licensed Use; (c) the withholding taxes, if any, required by law to be deducted in respect of such sales; (d) the date of the First Commercial Use of each Licensed Use in each country during the reporting period; and (e) the exchange rates used in determining the amount of United States dollars. With respect to sales of Licensed Uses invoiced in United States dollars, the gross sales, Net Revenues, and royalties payable shall be expressed in United States dollars. With respect to sales of Licensed Uses invoiced in a currency other than United States dollars, the gross sales, Net Revenue and royalties payable shall be expressed in the domestic currency of the Person making the sale together with the United States dollar equivalent of the royalty payable, calculated using the average closing buying rate for such currency quoted in the continental terms method of quoting exchange rates (local currency per US$1) by the Wall Street Journal on the last business day of each month in the calendar quarter prior to the date of payment. Reports shall be due not later than the ninetieth (90th) day following the close of each reporting period. LICENSEE shall keep and require its Affiliates to keep complete and accurate records in sufficient detail to properly reflect all gross sales and Net Revenue and to enable the royalties payable hereunder to be determined. For the purposes of this Section 3.7, gross sales of any Laboratory Developed Tests shall be calculated as the amount of revenue expected to be collected on such gross sales after all contractual discounts and allowances from third party payers, and not the gross amounts billed to such third party payers.

3.8 Audits.

3.8.1 Upon the written request of LICENSOR and not more than once in each calendar year, LICENSEE shall permit an independent certified public accounting firm, provided such accounting firm signs a confidentiality agreement reasonably acceptable to LICENSEE, selected by LICENSOR and reasonably acceptable to LICENSEE, at LICENSOR’s expense, to have access during normal business hours to such of the records of LICENSEE as may be reasonably necessary to verify the accuracy of the royalty reports hereunder for any year ending not more than twenty-four (24) months prior to the date of such request. The accounting firm shall disclose to LICENSOR only whether the records are correct or not and the details concerning any specific discrepancies. No other information shall be shared.

3.8.2 If such accounting firm concludes that additional royalties were owed during such period, LICENSEE shall pay the additional royalties within ninety (90) days of the date LICENSOR delivers to LICENSEE such accounting firm’s written report documenting the royalty underpayment; provided, however, if LICENSEE disputes any of the accounting firm’s findings in good faith, LICENSEE and LICENSOR shall work in good faith to determine the appropriate additional royalties due. The fees charged by such accounting firm shall be paid by LICENSOR; provided, however. if the audit discloses that the royalties payable by LICENSEE for the audited period are more than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the royalties actually paid for such period, and the difference between royalties payable and royalties paid is greater than Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000), then LICENSEE shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses charged by such accounting firm.

LICENSOR shall further have sole discretion in determining whether a particular patent or patent application has ceased to be of sufficient business value to warrant incurring additional prosecution and maintenance fees and costs, but shall notify LICENSEE of LICENSOR’s intention to allow the particular patent or patent application to lapse at least thirty days (30) prior to irretrievable abandonment so that LICENSEE may request that the patent or patent application be kept in force at LICENSEE’s expense. Any costs associated with patent prosecution and/or maintenance requested by LICENSEE after LICENSOR has given notice of its intent to forego patent rights or allow the patent or patent application to lapse will be borne by the LICENSEE. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, as to any Licensed Patent which LICENSOR elects not to pursue, file, continue prosecuting or maintain in the United States, but which LICENSEE chooses have LICENSOR pursue, file, continue prosecuting or maintain and for which LICENSEE pays the preparation and/or prosecution costs and/or maintenance fees, LICENSEE shall have the authority to control the preparation and/or prosecution and/or maintenance thereof, and LICENSOR shall assign all rights, title and interest in and to any such Licensed Patents to LICENSEE, provided however, to the extent that any prosecution is

controlled by LICENSEE, any arguments or positions taken during such prosecution may not impair the scope or construction of any Licensed Patent to which LICENSOR has retained the rights.

5.4 Title; Recordation; Validity. LICENSOR owns all rights, title and interests in and to the Licensed Technology free and clear of any liens, encumbrances or third party rights, and LICENSOR has obtained and recorded or has undertaken efforts to record, duly executed assignments of the Licensed Technology as necessary to perfect all rights, title and interests therein, in accordance with governing law and regulations in each respective jurisdiction. LICENSOR is aware of no basis for a claim of invalidity or unenforceability of any of the Licensed Technology.

5.5 Noncontravention; Existing Licenses. There are no existing agreements, commitments, proposals, offers, or rights with, to, or in any person to acquire any of the rights under the Licensed Technology that would prevent, alter, or hinder the performance of LICENSOR’s obligations hereunder. Licenses previously granted to the Third Parties listed in Exhibit C will not interfere with LICENSOR’s obligations or LICENSEE’s rights hereunder within the Field. There are no other licensees of the Licensed Technology, except for the parties and licenses specified in and described in Exhibit C.

5.6 Exclusions. LICENSOR expressly excludes any further representations, conditions and warranties that, except as otherwise provided in Section 10.4 below, any development, manufacture, use, importation, sale, lease, or other disposal of any Licensed Product will not infringe any patent, trademark, copyright, trade secret or other intellectual property right not owned by or licensed to LICENSOR.

5.7 New Licensees. LICENSOR agrees that it will notify LICENSEE promptly in writing in the event that it enters into any additional licenses for the Licensed Technology; provided, however, that such additional licenses will not contravene the terms of or LICENSEE’s rights under this Agreement under any circumstances without the express written consent of the LICENSEE prior to the time any such additional license is granted.

5.8 Patent Expiration Dates. The Licensed Patents which have been granted as of the Effective Date shall each expire on the respective dates indicated in Exhibit A unless, with respect to those patent applications marked with “+PTA” in Exhibit A, the date indicated is extended by patent term adjustment or extension, in which case LICENSOR shall immediately notify LICENSEE of the corrected expiration date in writing.

ARTICLE 6

PATENTS

6.1 Patent Prosecution and Maintenance. LICENSOR shall be responsible for and shall have the right to control the preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of the Licensed Patents and shall be responsible for paying all costs thereof. To the extent that LICENSOR holds exclusive rights encompassing the Field, but does not exclusively own any portion of the Licensed Patents, LICENSOR shall make all reasonable efforts to ensure that the Licensed Patents are maintained. LICENSOR shall provide LICENSEE with a copy of each

patent application subject to this Section 9.1. In the event that LICENSOR is unable or unwilling to maintain any one or more of the Licensed Patents, it will promptly notify LICENSEE of any payment that is due with a description of how it relates to the Licensed Patents hereunder. LICENSEE, in its sole discretion, may pay the fees and costs for maintaining the indicated patents or patent applications within Licensed Patents and deduct such payment from any amounts owed by LICENSEE to LICENSOR under this Agreement. LICENSOR shall notify LICENSEE before any Licensed Patents terminate with sufficient time to permit LICENSEE to take action to maintain the patent, if it so chooses.

6.2 Enforcement of Patent Rights. LICENSOR shall enforce the Licensed Technology and prosecute any infringers, at its sole expense, when it is in the best interests of LICENSOR and LICENSEE to do so. LICENSEE shall cooperate with LICENSOR in the planning and execution of any action to enforce the Licensed Patents. LICENSOR shall not settle the suit in a manner that diminishes or affects the rights or interests of LICENSEE without the express written consent of LICENSEE. If LICENSOR declines to litigate any infringement of the Licensed Technology, LICENSOR shall give LICENSEE the right, to the extent permissible by law, but not the obligation, to bring actions to enforce the Licensed Technology or otherwise ▇▇▇▇▇ the infringement thereof and to control any litigation or other enforcement action. LICENSOR shall cooperate with LICENSEE in the planning and execution of any action to enforce the Licensed Patents. LICENSEE shall not settle the suit in a manner that diminishes or affects the rights or interests of LICENSOR without the express written consent of LICENSOR. The costs of any such action by LICENSEE shall be borne by LICENSEE, and LICENSEE shall be entitled to keep any recovery, settlement or other costs or recoveries.

6.3 Improvements.

6.3.1 LICENSEE shall disclose to LICENSOR any and all improvements made by or on behalf of LICENSEE directly related to the Licensed Technology that are conceived or reduced to practice by or on behalf of LICENSEE as a result of activities engaged in pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (“Licensee Improvements”).

6.3.2 LICENSOR shall disclose to LICENSEE any and all improvements made by or on behalf of LICENSOR (“Licensor Improvements”) related to the Licensed Technology that are conceived or reduced to practice by or on behalf of LICENSOR during the Term of this Agreement. LICENSEE acknowledges, however, that LICENSOR has granted other licenses to third party(ies) for use of the Licensed Technology to the parties described in Exhibit C and, further that certain Licensor Improvements to the Licensed Technology, although they may be of benefit to LICENSEE, may arise in conjunction with such third party licenses. In such cases, disclosure of such Licensor Improvements may be restricted or prohibited, or disclosure to LICENSEE may be delayed due to LICENSOR’s obligations under the third party license. In such cases, to the extent permitted, LICENSOR will disclose the Licensor Improvement as soon as practicable.

6.3.3 LICENSEE shall not publish or disclose Licensor Improvements to third parties or to the public through any communication including, but not limited to, academic publication or other exchanges of information except as provided in Article 7 and shall not so publish or disclose without first providing the LICENSOR with the opportunity to review the communication and to make arrangements for protecting such Licensor Improvements by patent

or other appropriate means prior to disclosure. Similarly, LICENSOR shall not publish or disclose Licensee Improvements to third parties or to the public through any communication including, but not limited to, academic publication or other exchanges of information except as provided in Article 7 and shall not so publish or disclose without first providing the LICENSEE with the opportunity to review the communication and to make arrangements for protecting such Licensee Improvements by patent or other appropriate means prior to disclosure.

6.3.4 All Licensor Improvements shall be owned by LICENSOR. LICENSEE agrees to provide any assistance and take such acts as are reasonably requested by LICENSOR, at LICENSOR’s expense, to enable LICENSOR to obtain a letters patent for or respecting any Licensor Improvement, to protect such patent right, to conduct further research and to publish. For purposes of this Agreement, Licensor Improvements shall include all Licensed Know-How, information, patents and/or patent applications, including provisional applications and any patents or patent applications claiming priority thereto, which are filed by LICENSOR subsequent to the Effective Date of this Agreement covering any of the Initial Licensed Products in which the Licensed Technology is or was used, and any methods, algorithms and software related thereto.

6.3.5 Subject to 6.3.4 above, all Licensee Improvements, and all improvements to the Licensed Technology which are jointly made by LICENSOR and LICENSEE (which shall also be included within “Licensee Improvements”), shall be owned by LICENSEE; provided that, LICENSEE shall not own any Licensed Technology. LICENSOR shall provide any assistance and take such acts as are reasonably requested by LICENSEE, at LICENSEE’s expense, to enable LICENSEE to obtain a letters patent for or respecting any Licensee Improvement, to protect such patent right, to conduct further research and to publish.

6.3.6 All Licensor Improvements shall automatically become subject to the license granted in Section 2.1 above and any patent rights therein shall be deemed to be Licensed Patents for the purposes of this Agreement, subject to the same rights and obligations applicable to Licensed Technology under the Agreement.

6.3.7 All jointly made Licensee Improvements shall become subject to a grant-back from LICENSEE to LICENSOR of a non-exclusive, sublicensable, worldwide license to make, have made, use, perform, sell or offer for sale any such jointly made Licensee Improvements outside of the Field, subject to a commercially reasonable royalty and all other customary license provisions to be negotiated in good faith by the parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and except as provided for in Section 6.3.4, LICENSOR understands and acknowledges that any work performed pursuant to the Employment Agreement and the Consulting Agreements described in the preamble to this Agreement in the Field shall be “work made for hire” and will be owned solely by and assigned to the LICENSEE. LICENSEE understands and acknowledges that LICENSOR’s development obligations under preexisting licenses identified in Exhibit C may preempt certain claims of ownership by LICENSEE pursuant to this Section 6.3.7.

6.4 Limited Power of Attorney. LICENSOR grants to LICENSEE a conditional, limited power of attorney for purposes of maintaining the Licensed Patents as provided in Section 6.1 above or enforcing any patent rights of the Licensed Patents as provided in Section 6.2 above, but only to the extent permitted by law.

ARTICLE 7

CONFIDENTIALITY

7.1 Confidential Information. Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.2 below, during the term of this Agreement, and for a period of ten (10) years following the expiration or earlier termination hereof, each Party shall maintain in confidence all information of the other Parties disclosed after the Effective Date by the other Party and identified as, or acknowledged to be, confidential (the “Confidential Information”), and shall not use, disclose or grant the use of the Confidential Information to any Third Party except on a need-to-know basis to those of its own, and its Affiliates’, and assignees’, directors, officers, affiliates, employees, agents, consultants, clinical investigators and contractors, to the extent such disclosure is reasonably necessary in connection with such Party’s activities as expressly authorized by this Agreement. To the extent that disclosure is authorized by this Agreement, prior to disclosure, each Party hereto shall obtain written agreement of any such Third Party Person to hold in confidence and not make use of the Confidential Information for any purpose other than those permitted by this Agreement. Each Party shall notify the other Parties promptly upon discovery of any unauthorized use or disclosure of the other Party’s Confidential Information

7.2 Permitted Disclosures. The confidentiality obligations contained in Section 7.1 of this Agreement shall not apply to the extent that (a) any receiving Party (the “Recipient”) is required (i) to disclose information by law, order or regulation of a governmental agency or a court of competent jurisdiction, or (ii) to disclose information to any governmental agency for purposes of obtaining approval to test or market a Product, provided in either case that the Recipient shall provide written notice thereof to the other Parties and sufficient opportunity to object to any such disclosure or to request confidential treatment thereof; or (b) the Recipient can demonstrate that (i) the disclosed information was public knowledge at the time of such disclosure to the Recipient, or thereafter became public knowledge, other than as a result of actions or inaction of the Recipient in violation hereof; (ii) the disclosed information was rightfully known by the Recipient (as shown by its written records) prior to the date of disclosure to the Recipient by any other Party hereunder; or (iii) the disclosed information was disclosed to the Recipient on an unrestricted basis from a source unrelated to any Party to this Agreement and not under a duty of confidentiality to any other Party, or (iv) the disclosed information was independently developed by Recipient without use of any Confidential Information of the disclosing Party.

7.2.1 Each Party acknowledges that the other Party has certain time-critical reporting obligations by virtue of its status as a public corporation and agrees to cooperate in preparation of a joint press release regarding the execution and general terms of this Agreement to be issued concurrently with a Form 8-K report that must be filed with the SEC by each Party within four (4) business days of the Effective Date. The Parties further agree that once they have mutually agreed upon descriptive language that describes the material terms of this Agreement, either Party may continue to use such descriptive language in its future SEC filings or other investor communications so long as such future communications are not materially different than what was previously agreed upon.

7.3 Equitable Relief. Each Party hereby acknowledges that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach of this Article 7 by the Recipient, the disclosing Party may suffer irreparable injury for which damages at law may not be an adequate remedy. Accordingly, without prejudice to any other rights and remedies otherwise available to the disclosing Party, the disclosing Party shall be entitled to seek equitable relief, including injunctive relief and specific performance, for any breach or threatened breach of this Article 7 by the Recipient, its Affiliates, or any of its or their employees, directors, officers, members, agents, or representatives.

7.4 Non-Use of Names; Confidentiality of Agreement. No Party hereto shall make any public announcement, issue any press release or publish any study (collectively, all such communications, “Publication”) concerning the transactions contemplated herein, or make any Publication which includes the name of any other Party or any of its Affiliates, or otherwise use the name or names of any other Party or any of their employees or any adaptation, abbreviation or derivative of any of them, whether oral or written, related to the terms, conditions or subject matter of this Agreement, without the prior written permission of such other Party, except as may be required by (i) law or (ii) judicial order (and then only following consultation with any other Party) or as may be agreed to pursuant to Section 7.2.1 hereof.

7.5 Compliance with Laws; Reporting Obligation with Respect to Protected Health Information. Each Party shall comply with all Applicable Laws. “Applicable Laws” are the international, federal, state, and local laws, rules and regulations that relate to the conduct of the Parties’ business and the performance by the Parties of their respective rights and obligations under this Agreement. If a Party or its permitted representatives gain access to protected health information (“PHI”), as that term is defined under The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”), that is not required for performance of this Agreement, each Party shall immediately report to the other Parties any incidents of access to PHI or any incidents of use, reproduction or disclosure of PHI of which it or its Permitted Representatives become(s) aware. Each Party shall enter into a Business Associates Agreement covering any PHI upon the reasonable request of the other Party.

any liability hereunder for damages resulting from the unauthorized disclosure or use of any Confidential Information by a party, or other party or person affiliated therewith; or

(2)

LICENSEE’s obligations to

(a)

make payment of any sum due to LICENSOR pursuant to Article 3, and

If LICENSEE proposes to seek indemnification from the LICENSOR under the provisions of this Section 10.3, it shall notify the LICENSOR in writing within thirty (30) days of receipt of notice of any such claim or suit. LICENSOR shall have the right but not the obligation to participate in the defense of such claim, and the parties shall mutually agree upon counsel and monetary settlement terms with respect to any such claim. Each Party agrees to promptly make arrangements to pay for any legal fees pursuant to the foregoing indemnification provisions during the pendency of any Third Party claim, demand, action or other proceeding giving rise to the claim for indemnification.
