Common use of GOALS OF THE GEMINI PROJECT Clause in Contracts

GOALS OF THE GEMINI PROJECT. As the first project under this Agreement, HP and Bruker undertake to develop the Gemini MS for HP and the Gemini R&D MS for Bruker. The Gemini MS will be a high-performance, rugged, easy-to-use, relatively low cost, bench-top ITMS for high performance liquid chromatography with MS(n) capability. The Gemini R&D MS will be a high-performance, flexible, research-oriented ITMS for high performance liquid chromatography with MS(') capability. The Gemini MS / Gemini R&D MS is described in more detail and the required functionality, features, and performance characteristics are set out in the Gemini Product Data sheet, which is incorporated herein as Appendix 1. The Gemini MS and the Gemini R&D MS will be based upon essentially the same components, but will have different configurations, as well as differences in names and appearances as provided in Section 5.7. HP and Bruker will complete the development so that HP and Bruker can begin shipping the Gemini MS and the Gemini R&D MS respectively to their demo centers and to their first customers between January 1, 2000 and March 1, 2000. The Gemini Project if successful may lead to the [*](2) as further described in Article 11. Improvements to or further developments of the Gemini MS / Gemini R&D MS after the product is introduced and first marketed, particularly any software developed during any continuing development program, may be made available as an upgrade to the Gemini MS / Gemini R&D MS or as part of the next generation platform, [*].
