SCHEDULE 2 VIRUS



WHEREAS, GATC has developed an artificial intelligence-driven genetic analysis engine based on patient test swabs to produce specific results for precision risk stratification and viral response platform for multi system analysis of viral infection, currently formatted to assess sars-cov-2 infection (the Viruses Engine), and produces the Reports; and


WHEREAS, COMANY is desirous of obtaining exclusive rights to receive the Reports generated from the Viruses Engine for use in the Licensed Territories, under the terms set forth herein.


For purposes of this Schedule, the term Sample Test shall mean a Viruses Sample Test which means a laboratory clinical test of a sample of human saliva for genetic sequencing and analysis of precision risk stratification and viral response platform for multi system analysis of viral infection, currently formatted to assess sars-cov-2 infection.


Analysis and Interpretation Fees:


The Fees for the Analysis and Interpretation Services (Analysis and Interpretation Fees) in the Licensed Territory will be $70.00 per Report generated for an End User. Upon mutual written agreement, the Parties may agree to change the Analysis and Interpretation Fee.


If AL partners with a philanthropic non-for-profit organization to subsidize the cost of the Test Kits and Reports, GATC agrees to reduce the Analysis and Interpretation Fees based on purchase commitment.
