PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS

A.                                   Elitech and its Affiliates have product lines that include chemistry analyzers and reagents and the capability to modify those products and to design and manufacture other in vitro diagnostic products.

B.                                     Corgenix has developed, continues to develop, and is commercializing immunoassays for specific tests related to human health (each a “Corgenix Assay,” and collectively, the “Corgenix Assays”).

C.                                     Elitech and Corgenix have entered into that certain Joint Product Development Agreement (the “2010 Joint Product Development Agreement”) on July 16, 2010, in order to establish a product co-development relationship with respect to the Corgenix Assays.

D.                                    Each of Corgenix, Elitech and Wescor desires to further expand the product co-development relationship in order to improve technology development efficiency, with a goal of modifying existing Corgenix Assays and developing new Corgenix Assays so that Elitech and its Affiliates can commercialize the Corgenix Assays as part of a system that includes standard or modified versions of their chemistry analyzers, serology instruments or other instruments (collectively, the “Elitech Analyzers”), and so that in certain permitted situations, Corgenix can commercialize the new Corgenix Assays through existing sales and distribution arrangements.

E.                                      Upon the due execution and delivery of this Agreement by each of the Parties, the Parties intend for this Agreement to amend, restate, and replace the 2010 Joint Product Development Agreement.

AGREEMENT

The Parties, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

1.                                      Purpose.

The goal of the co-development effort is (a) the modification of the existing Corgenix Assays for use in Elitech Analyzers for commercialization by Elitech and its Affiliates; and (b) subsequent to May 1, 2011, the development of new assays for use with Elitech Analyzers

1

using the immunoturbidimetric assay format (“New Corgenix IT Assays”).  Phase I of the co-development effort (the “Phase I Co-Development Program”) is focused on the sharing and licensing of Corgenix Assay technology to facilitate the modification of the existing Corgenix Assays for use in Elitech Analyzers for commercialization by Elitech and its Affiliates.  Phase II of the co-development effort (the “Phase II Co-Development Program”) is focused on the development of the New Corgenix IT Assays.  The intent is that, in order to achieve joint development of (i) Corgenix Assays existing on the Effective Date and modified to be used with the Elitech Analyzers (the “New Corgenix Assays”), and (ii) New Corgenix IT Assays, all relevant Corgenix Assay technology will be available to Elitech and its Affiliates to establish the broadest common immunoassay technology base to pursue co-development of the New Corgenix Assays and the New Corgenix IT Assays.  Such technology would include, for example, manufacturing know-how, testing and reliability information, visits to production facilities, and technical consultation, for which the burden of disclosure is reasonable.  Neither Party intends for this Agreement to grant a second source right on immunoassay products to the other Party.  The development of a System for each Corgenix Assay, as well as the development of each New Corgenix IT Assay, will constitute a separate project, with separate Development Plans, expense reimbursement budgets for Corgenix, supply arrangements, transfer pricing, and Product performance and prototype performance acceptance criteria.

Each of the Parties represents that its efforts to manufacture and market immunoassay products other than the Products will be totally independent, and subject to the restrictions set forth in this Agreement, each Party will compete with the others as each unilaterally determines.

6.                                      Ownership; License.

6.1.                              Sole Ownership.  The Parties and their respective Affiliates will each retain their separate ownership interests in (a) Proprietary Technology; and (b) Sole Intellectual Property Rights.  Should any Party claim that Proprietary Technology of the other Party or Parties, as the case may be, or an Affiliate of such other Party or Parties is also owned by the receiving Party, upon written request, the Executive Committee will review whether the Technology is separately owned by all of the Parties or owned by the initially disclosing Party or Parties, as the case may be, or an Affiliate of such Party or Parties.  The Executive Committee will recommend a disposition of the claim to the Parties.  If the Executive Committee cannot agree on the disposition of a dispute or disagreement between the Parties as to the ownership rights of such Technology, then a neutral patent attorney reasonably acceptable to all of the Parties will be retained to determine the ownership question, with each of Parties to the dispute assuming an equal share of the expense for the same.

6.2.                              Joint Ownership.  Joint Intellectual Property Rights, Program Technology and Joint Patent Rights will be jointly owned by the Parties, with each Party having an undivided equal ownership interest, and may be used by any Party or an Affiliate of such Party without restriction, subject to any confidentiality obligation that may apply, and further subject to the restriction that Joint Patent Rights can be only licensed pursuant to a licensing framework approved in accordance with Section 3.3.11.  Ownership of Joint Patent Rights will not be allocated based on relative contribution, but will be deemed to be ownership of an undivided one-third interest by each of Corgenix, Elitech and Wescor, or by such Affiliates as Corgenix and/or Elitech and Wescor may designate in writing.

6.3.                              License.  Each of Elitech and Corgenix hereby grants to the other Party a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide, nontransferable license to use its Proprietary Technology and Sole Intellectual Property Rights for the New Corgenix Assays; provided, however, that (a) neither Elitech nor Corgenix will have the right to grant sublicenses or have products made pursuant to such Proprietary Technology and Sole Intellectual Property Rights, except that either Party will have the right to have products made for it under Sole Patent Rights to Program Technology; and (b) the license granted by Elitech to Corgenix pursuant to this Section 6.3 is strictly limited to the use of Elitech’s and its Affiliates’ Proprietary Technology for the purpose of developing the New Corgenix Assays and the New Corgenix IT Assays, and for the purpose of manufacturing such New Corgenix Assays and New Corgenix IT Assays solely for commercialization by Elitech and its Affiliates or by Corgenix (if applicable) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, (y) either Elitech or Corgenix may ask the other Party to grant a license to sublicense or have products made under such other Party’s Proprietary Technology and Sole Intellectual Property Rights incorporated in Technology of such requesting Party subject to the terms and conditions to be mutually agreed upon on a case-by-case basis; and (z) with respect to any New Corgenix IT Assays, subject to the

9

provisions of Section 7.3, Corgenix will have the right to grant sublicenses or have products made as reasonably necessary to enable Corgenix to reformat or reformulate such New Corgenix IT Assays into Corgenix labeled products for sale through existing sales and distribution arrangements pursuant to Section 7.3.

6.4.                              Inability to License.  It is recognized that Elitech, Wescor, Corgenix or their respective Affiliates may have contracted or may hereafter contract with a third party who is not a party to this Agreement, such as a national or other company or sovereign government, governmental agency or intergovernmental authority, to do work solely financed by such third party and to assign to such third party its/their right to grant, or may now or hereafter be restrained by such third party from granting, licenses (other than by a Person to its parent or an Affiliate of the parent) under Intellectual Property Rights arising out of such work.  The inability, for such a reason, of any of the Parties, or any one of their respective Affiliates, to grant the licenses agreed to be granted in this Agreement will not be considered a breach of this Agreement.  If such contract results in a significant reduction of resources allocated by one Party to the Phase I Co-Development Program or the Phase II Co-Development Program, and the Executive Committee determines that such reduction of efforts and such inability to license to be materially detrimental to the purpose of the Phase I Co-Development Program or the Phase II Co-Development Program, then any Party may terminate this Agreement at any time by giving written notice to that effect to the other Party or Parties, as the case may be.

7.                                      System Intellectual Property Rights Ownership, Manufacturing and Sales.

7.1.                              System Intellectual Property Rights Ownership.  Subject to Section 3.3.9, and notwithstanding the provisions set forth in Sections 6.2 and 6.3, Elitech will solely own any and all Intellectual Property Rights related to any System developed pursuant to this Agreement, and there is no express or implied license of Elitech Sole Intellectual Property Rights to Corgenix for any purpose other than to support the development of Systems and the commercialization of such Systems by Elitech or its Affiliates in the Territory.

7.2.                              Corgenix License Grant.  To the extent that Corgenix owns such rights and has the authority to license such rights in the Territory, Corgenix grants to Elitech and its Affiliates a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to the Corgenix Assay Proprietary Technology solely to develop, make, have made, use, sell, offer to sell, distribute, import and commercialize Products and perform services for those Products developed pursuant to this Agreement.

7.3.                              Exclusivity.  During the period that is the earlier of (a) five (5) years after the Effective Date, or (b) three (3) years after the Sale of the first Product, Corgenix will not directly or indirectly develop or commercialize any product that would compete with the Systems, except to the extent that such products are commercially available or in development prior to the Effective Date.  For the avoidance of doubt, a list the products referred to in the preceding sentence is set forth on Exhibit A.  For purposes of this Section 7.3, a “competing product” is a product that (i) could be applied to the Elitech Analyzers; or (ii) would utilize the same delivery technology as the Elitech Analyzers and be reasonably considered to be competing for the same market segment or Consumers based on general price range or test volume capability, among other factors.  Notwithstanding the prohibition set forth in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence, Corgenix will be permitted to commercialize New Corgenix IT Assays labeled as Corgenix

10

products through sales and distribution agreements existing on May 1, 2011, provided that such products are not sold for use on Elitech Analyzers.  Any disagreement between the Parties as to whether a product competes with a System will be referred to the Executive Committee for resolution.

7.4.                              Manufacturing.

7.4.1.                     Corgenix will be responsible for manufacturing New Corgenix Assays during the Phase I Co-Development Program.  Corgenix will also have a right of first refusal, but not an obligation, to manufacture the New Corgenix IT Assays developed during the Phase II Co-Development Program for a period of three (3) years commencing on the First Commercialization Date for the specific New Corgenix IT Assay.  Notwithstanding the first sentence of this Section 7.4.1, either Elitech or Wescor may elect in its sole discretion to manufacture New Corgenix Assays to be incorporated into the Systems at any manufacturing facility owned or operated by Elitech or one of its Affiliates.  Moreover, if Corgenix exercises its right of first refusal set forth in the second sentence of this Section 7.4.1, then following the expiration of the three-year term set forth in the second sentence of this Section 7.4.1, Elitech or Wescor may also elect to manufacture the New Corgenix IT Assays.  If Elitech or Wescor elects to manufacture New Corgenix Assays or New Corgenix IT Assays, Corgenix will be responsible for the transfer from development to manufacturing in Elitech’s or Wescor’s facility, as appropriate.  Elitech or Wescor, as appropriate, will reimburse Corgenix for the reasonable direct costs of such manufacturing transfer, provided that the Parties have mutually agreed upon and documented a budget for such costs prior to the commencement of such manufacturing transfer.

7.4.2.                     If Elitech and Wescor elect to have Corgenix manufacture the New Corgenix Assays to be incorporated into the Systems, then the Parties will enter into a supply agreement that will include standard provisions for such agreements including, without limitation, transfer pricing, forecasting, shipment and delivery, quality standards and other such terms and provisions as the Parties deem necessary and appropriate; provided, however, that the transfer price for the sale of New Corgenix Assays by Corgenix to Elitech or Wescor, as the case may be, as set forth in such supply agreement will not exceed an amount that results in a greater than forty percent (40%) Corgenix gross margin for the Products, which will be calculated in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.

7.4.3.                     If Corgenix elects to manufacture the New Corgenix IT Assays, then the Parties agree to enter into a similar supply agreement with respect to the New Corgenix IT Assays that will include standard provisions for such agreements including, without limitation, transfer pricing, forecasting, shipment and delivery, quality standards and other such terms and provisions as the Parties deem necessary and appropriate; provided, however, that the transfer price for the sale of New Corgenix IT Assays by Corgenix to Elitech or Wescor, as the case may be, as set forth in such supply agreement will not exceed an amount that results in a greater than forty percent (40%) Corgenix gross margin for the Products, which will be calculated in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.
