Prior to exercising its right to publish any Derivatives of Licensor (or jointly owned Derivatives per Section 8.4 below), including but not limited to publishing such accounts in journals or other publications, the Licensee shall be furnished with a copy of the proposed disclosure. The Licensor agrees that it shall refrain from publishing the proposed disclosure until it has received Notice from the Licensee that such disclosure may be published, or until a period of six (6) months has elapsed from the date of initial submission of the said disclosure to the Licensee, whichever is first.

SFU/ADI License – Page 8 of 21

SFU/ADI License – Page 13 of 21

The Parties will explore all reasonable avenues available to avoid or solve problems of this nature in the shortest possible time. When the obligation is delayed at least two months due to a Force Majeure, and the Parties have not agreed upon a revised basis for performing the obligation, including adjustment of the quotas set out in Part 6, then either Party may bring the matter to arbitration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

16. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

If at any time during or after the Term, any dispute, difference or question arises between the Parties concerning the construction, meaning or effect of this Agreement or any agreement or covenant entered into between the parties pursuant to this Agreement or the termination of this Agreement, or the rights or obligations of the parties, every such dispute, difference or question will be submitted to and settled by arbitration and the decision of the arbitrator will be accepted by all parties to such dispute. The arbitration will be conducted by a single arbitrator agreed upon by the parties to the matter under the American Arbitration Association, in Chicago, IL, USA, and all proceedings shall be conducted in the English language. There shall be three arbitrators, one each shall be appointed by the respective parties and the third appointed by agreement of the first two arbitrators or, failing agreement, by the American Arbitration Association. Disputes about arbitration procedure shall be resolved by the arbitrators or, failing agreement, by the American Arbitration Association. The arbitrators may proceed to an award notwithstanding the failure of the other party to participate in the proceedings. Discovery shall be limited to mutual exchange of documents relevant to the dispute, controversy or claim; depositions shall not be permitted unless agreed to by both parties. The arbitrators shall be authorized to grant interim relief, including to prevent the destruction of goods or documents involved in the dispute, protect trade secrets and provide for security for a prospective monetary award. In no event shall punitive damages be assessed against either party. The prevailing party shall not be entitled to an award of reasonable attorney fees incurred in connection with the arbitration. The award of the arbitrators shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the parties and shall be enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief, security or other equitable remedies from any court of competent jurisdiction in furtherance of the arbitration proceedings.

Schedule A

Running Royalty

The royalty referenced in Section 6 hereof shall be determined in accordance with the following.

The royalty rate shall be one percent (1%) of Revenue with a cap of One Hundred Thousand US Dollars ($100,000) per year (where the term “year” means the fiscal year of Licensee, ending on October 31 of each calendar year); provided, however, that in the event that the US CIP application Serial No. 09/177,439 filed on October 21, 1998” does not issue as a U.S. Patent with Device Claims (i.e., claims directed to devices per se of the type now pending in such application), the royalty rate will then be reduced to one-half of one percent (0.5%) with a cap of Fifty Thousand US Dollars ($50,000) per year. Licensor will notify Licensee of the abandonment of, or issue of a patent on, such application promptly, and in any event within ten (10) days of receiving notice of the same from Licensor’s patent attorneys and the reduction of royalty rate shall be effective upon either such abandonment or issue of such patent without such Device Claims.

Further, in the event that Licensee takes a license or licenses from one or more third parties, which licenses are reasonably required to use, make, have made, or import (as applicable) any process or device covered in any patent or patent application included in the Patent Rights, the royalties due to Licensor hereunder shall be reduced by any royalties paid to such third parties in connection with the license of such rights, but in no event shall the royalties due to Licensor be reduced by more than fifty percent (50%) of the royalty that would otherwise be due if no license or licenses were reasonably required.
