Agreement

In consideration of the matters stated in the Recitals hereto and the mutual covenants contained in this Agreement the parties agree as follows:

1.0 DEFINITIONS. When used in this Agreement, each of the following terms shall have the definition set out below:

1.1 Agreement means this Agreement, together with all Exhibits which are attached hereto or incorporated by reference herein, and which are an integral part hereof.

1.2 Commission Schedule means the commission schedule attached hereto as Exhibit A.

1.3 PSS Territory means only the United States.

1.4 Products means Altus’ CoolGlide CV-, CoolGlide Excel-, and CoolGlide Vantage laser systems. In the event Altus manufacturers, markets or sells new or different products other than the foregoing Products, the parties agree that they will first discuss the possibility of PSS becoming a sales agent for such products prior to Altus approaching, soliciting or discussing with any other third party a possible sales agency relationship for the sale of such products to Physicians in the PSS Territory. Notwithstanding any other term in this Agreement, Altus may from time to time discontinue the manufacture and/or sale of any or all Products, and/or change its pricing, service policies, warranties, credit requirements, product designs, and terms of sale without any obligation or liability to PSS; provided, that Altus will not, without PSS’ consent, sell a Product outside the range as provided in Altus’ then-current pricing matrix.

2.0 APPOINTMENT.

2.1 Sales Agent. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Altus hereby appoints PSS as its authorized U.S. sales agent with exclusive rights solely to promote and solicit orders for sales of the Products to licensed physicians (“Physicians”) for delivery and use within the PSS Territory. Notwithstanding the foregoing (but subject to Altus’ obligations to pay PSS for commissions earned hereunder), Altus shall have the right, without any compensation owing to PSS, to market and sell Products in the PSS Territory through its employees and third-party leasing companies, however, Altus will not, during this Agreement, authorize any third-party sales agent to market or sell the Product(s) to Physicians in the PSS Territory.

2.2 Competitive Products. During the Term of this Agreement, PSS shall not engage, either directly or indirectly, in the manufacture, marketing, promotion or sale of products that are similar to or competitive with the Products covered by this Agreement, unless Altus and PSS agree in advance in writing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, PSS shall have the right to sell its remaining inventory of the Candela V Beam lasers.

2.3 Nature of Relationship. In entering into this Agreement. PSS does so as an independent contractor and not as a franchisee, partner or joint venturer. PSS does not have any right or authority, nor shall PSS hold itself out as having any right or authority, to assume, create or enter into any contract or obligation, either express or implied, on behalf of, in the name of, or binding upon, Altus. PSS will make no representations or warranties, or incur any liabilities, for which Altus may be obligated, without first having obtained Altus’ written consent.

2.4 Orders. PSS will not accept orders in Altus’ name, or make quotations of price or other terms, without Altus’ prior written approval. Altus will have the sole right, without any liability or obligation to PSS, to: provide sales quotes; establish and modify pricing and all other terms and conditions of sales; reject any orders and/or offers; disapprove the credit of any customers; accept or reject the return of its Products from any customers; and, make allowances and/or give any credits, discounts or adjustments it deems appropriate to any customers. PSS will forward promptly to Altus all monies or remittances in any form which PSS may receive by customers. Invoices will be sent by Altus directly to the customer.

3.0 SALES PROCEDURE

3.1 The parties agree to meet, discuss and cooperate in good faith in order to agree on and implement mutually beneficial policies and procedures with respect to the marketing, solicitation and sales of the Products, including without limitation those relating to the identification of leads and prospective customers (“Prospects”), marketing and solicitation activities, and closing of sales to Prospects. In this regard, the Market Manager for PSS (“Market Manager”) and the Vice President of Sales for Altus shall take the lead in such discussions toward reaching mutual agreement on such details.

3.2 Subject to the specific polices and procedures that are hereafter agreed upon by the parties in writing, the Market Manager shall submit the Prospect information to Altus via email. Altus will then determine whether the Prospect is currently being actively pursued by Altus (an “Altus Prospect”). For purposes of this Agreement, a Prospect will be considered an “Altus

Prospect” if, for example, Altus has engaged in bilateral discussions with the Prospect (as opposed to, for example, an unanswered solicitation from Altus). Altus shall provide to PSS on a regular basis a current, accurate and complete list of all Altus Prospects.

3.3 In the event the Prospect is not an Altus Prospect, an Altus Sales Representative (as defined below) shall promptly follow up with the Prospect. Altus shall use commercially reasonable efforts to consummate a sale with the Prospect within one hundred and twenty (120) days after the Prospect information is first submitted by PSS to Altus.

3.4 In the event a sale is consummated within one hundred and twenty (120) days after the Prospect information is first submitted by PSS to Altus, PSS shall be entitled to a commission on such sale pursuant to the Commission Schedule attached as Exhibit A. Commissions, which will be the sole compensation for PSS’ performance under this Agreement, shall be based on the net selling price of the Product(s), less amounts for discounts; returns; allowances and credits issued by Altus or taken by customers; purchase, sales, or other similar taxes; freight and insurance; and duties (“Net Selling Price”). Overpayments in commissions may be deducted from commissions subsequently earned. Additionally, in the event a customer, who has purchased a Product for which PSS earned a commission hereunder, purchases an upgrade from Altus of that Product under circumstances which, if that upgrade were a Product, then PSS would have earned a commission hereunder, then PSS shall earn a commission on the sale of that Product upgrade in the amounts as set forth on Exhibit A.

4.0 PSS OBLIGATIONS

4.1 PSS shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promote, market and solicit orders for the Products, and to represent the interests of Altus at all times, to Physicians in the PSS Territory. PSS will also assist in collections of customer payments by performing such reasonable tasks as reminding delinquent customers that they are late in payments.

4.2 PSS shall, at its expense, maintain a properly trained sales force of adequate size to represent and promote the sale of the Products to Physicians throughout the PSS Territory. All of PSS’s sales staff shall be employees of PSS. PSS recognizes and agrees that Altus will be working cooperatively with PSS’s sales persons, including efforts to qualify leads and conduct demonstrations.

4.3 PSS shall, for at least three years from their respective dates of creation, maintain accurate books and records of marketing and sales activities relating to Products, Prospects, Altus Prospects and PSS’ obligations under this Agreement as may be reasonably necessary to document compliance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon the reasonable request of Altus no more than once in any 12-month period, PSS shall permit Altus to inspect and audit such books and records in order to confirm PSS’ compliance with the terms of this Agreement.

5.0 ALTUS OBLIGATIONS.

5.1 Altus shall, at its expense, contribute the personnel resources of its U.S. sales force (“Altus Sales Representatives”) to help support PSS in its efforts under this Agreement.

These persons shall be properly trained, knowledgeable, experienced and qualified with respect to all Products, and shall be geographically located strategically throughout the United States.

5.2 Altus shall provide demonstrations of the Product to Prospects as needed, and will provide all installation work for Products. PSS will not provide any product demonstrations and will not perform any product installation services. Altus agrees to provide sales and promotional support and after-sale service support to all Prospects and customers referred by PSS to Altus with the same diligence, quality and timeliness as Altus provides to Altus Prospects and direct customers.

5.3 Altus will provide, at its expense, sales literature, marketing material, and appropriate competitive information (“Marketing Materials”), in such quantities as may hereafter be agreed in writing by the parties, for use by PSS in connection with its marketing, promotion and sales efforts hereunder. Altus shall immediately provide notice to PSS of any inaccuracies, mistakes or incorrect statements in any Marketing Materials, and shall promptly provide to PSS any revised, updated or new Marketing Materials in such quantities as may hereafter be agreed in writing by the parties. All Marketing Materials are, and shall remain, Altus’ property, and will be returned promptly by PSS upon Altus’ request or upon the termination of this Agreement, whichever is first to occur.

5.4 Altus will provide with respect to all new Products sold its then-current product warranty.

5.5 Altus shall include PSS as an additional insured on Altus’ product liability and commercial general liability insurance policies. A certificate of insurance for two million dollars ($2,000,000) evidencing PSS as such additional insured is available upon request.

5.6 Altus shall provide initial training to PSS sales representatives and leaders. Such training shall include lecture and hands on demonstrations on the use and application of all Products. Each party shall be responsible for its own costs and expenses, including employee and travel expenses, in connection with such training.

5.7 Altus shall, for at least three years from their respective dates of creation, maintain accurate books and records of marketing and sales activities relating to Products, Prospects, Altus Prospects and Altus’ obligations under this Agreement as may be reasonably necessary to document compliance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon the reasonable request of PSS no more than once in any 12-month period, Altus shall permit PSS to inspect and audit such books and records in order to confirm Altus’ compliance with the terms of this Agreement.

6.0 REGULATORY COMPLIANCE AND APPROVAL.

6.1 Altus shall be responsible to ensure that the design and production of the Products conform to the laws and regulations administered by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and to the state and federal laws and regulations of any applicable governmental authority or jurisdiction within the PSS Territory.

6.2 PSS shall be responsible for complying with all laws, regulations and rules which may be applicable to the marketing or selling of the Product in the PSS Territory. Specifically, but without limitation, PSS shall be responsible for any applications, licenses, or other submittals or approvals required by regulations or rules related to the marketing or selling of the Products in the PSS Territory and PSS shall comply with such laws, regulations or rules at its own expense.

7.0 PRODUCT WARRANTY AND LIMITATIONS.

7.1 Product Warranty. Products sold pursuant to this Agreement will come with Altus’ then-current product warranty, which will be for the customer’s benefit.

7.2 Disclaimer of Warranties. EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 7.1, ALTUS MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AND ALTUS EXCLUDES AND DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. NEITHER PARTY SHALL HAVE LIABILITY FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND/OR THE SALE OR USE OF THE PRODUCTS.

7.3 Survival. The terms and conditions of this Section 7 shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

8.0 PRICE AND PAYMENT TERMS.

8.1 Price Schedule. The prices to be quoted by PSS for Products shall be provided in writing by Altus to PSS. Altus shall promptly notify PSS in writing of any price changes. PSS will not quote any prices outside the range of Altus’ pricing matrix without Altus’ prior written consent, which must be given in each instance.

8.2 All commissions earned by PSS hereunder shall be paid to PSS no later than the 30^th day of the month following the month in which the commission was earned. The commission shall be earned, during this Agreement or within 120 days thereafter, at the time Altus submits an invoice to the customer for the underlying Product(s) or Product upgrade(s). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a customer has not made full payment to Altus within 90 days from an invoice’s date, then Altus will have the right to offset the corresponding portion of the commission that had been paid to PSS. If that customer ultimately brings its balance current, Altus will then re-issue the commission that it had earlier offset. Altus shall pay interest to PSS at the lower of (a) eighteen percent (18%) per annum or (b) the highest amount permitted by law on all amounts not paid to PSS within thirty (30) days of their due date. With each payment to PSS, and no less than monthly, Altus shall submit a detailed report identifying all sales of Products during the prior period for which payment of commission is being made.

9.1 Return of Confidential Information. Each party shall return to the other all Confidential Information (as defined below) received from that other party, along with all copies, immediately upon the termination of this Agreement.

9.2 Remedies. Each party shall be liable to the other for damages caused by any breach of this Section 9 or by any unauthorized disclosure or use of the other’s Confidential Information by such party or third parties to whom unauthorized disclosure was made. In addition to any other rights or remedies which may be available to it, each party shall be entitled to seek appropriate injunctive relief or specific performance to prevent unauthorized use or disclosure of Confidential Information. Each party acknowledges and agrees that the unauthorized use or disclosure of the other party’s Confidential Information will cause irreparable injury to the other party and that money damages will not provide adequate remedy to the other party.

9.3 Confidential Information. The business and technical information developed or acquired by, or entrusted by a third party to, each party (“Confidential Information”) are the exclusive property of such party, are among such party’s most valuable assets, and their value to that party may be lost by their unauthorized use or disclosure to persons or entities not related to such party.

11.0 INDEMNIFICATION.

11.1 PSS shall and does hereby agree to indemnify and hold harmless Altus and its affiliates from and against any and all liability, loss, cost, claim, injury, damage, demand or expense (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) of any kind whatsoever arising out of, on account of, or in connection with (a) any instruction, specification or labeling supplied by PSS regarding the Product, unless Altus has concurred in writing with such instruction, specification or labeling; (b) any use of the Product in a manner described by PSS, unless Altus

has prescribed such use in written materials; (c) any marketing, sale, installation, servicing or repair of the Product by PSS not in accordance with Altus’ written consent and procedures; (d) any breach by PSS of this Agreement; or (e) PSS’ negligence or willful misconduct. This Indemnity shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

11.2 Altus Indemnification.

(a) Altus agrees to indemnify and hold harmless PSS and its affiliates from and against any loss, liability, claim, or damage (including reasonable attorneys fees) sustained by it or them as a result of any (i) breach by Altus of this Agreement or (ii) claim that the Product(s) infringe any patent, copyright, trade secret, or other intellectual property right of any third party; provided, that PSS notifies Altus immediately of any such claim, cooperates with Altus in the defense thereof, and allows Altus, at Altus’ option, to fully control the defense thereof with Altus’ own counsel. If such a claim arises, or in Altus’ judgment is likely to arise, PSS agrees to allow Altus, at Altus’ option and expense, to procure the right for PSS and all customers to continue to exercise their rights in the Product(s) or to replace or modify them in an equivalent manner (i.e., without adversely affecting the functionality or compatibility of the Products) so they become non-infringing, and any such actions will not be deemed to be a breach of this Agreement. If neither of the foregoing alternatives is available on terms that are commercially reasonable in Altus’ reasonable judgment, PSS, upon written request by Altus or the customers, shall cease all infringing activity relating to the Products, and neither party will be deemed to be in breach of this Agreement. The foregoing remedial actions, however, shall not relieve Altus of its indemnity obligations with respect to any loss, liability, or damage that has or may be incurred with respect to existing Product(s) prior to the cessation of the infringement. Altus shall have no obligation under this Section 11.2 with respect to any claim of infringement based upon PSS’s or any customer’s modification of the Product(s) or their combination, operation, or use with programs or equipment, but only insofar as such infringement would otherwise have been avoided bur for such modification, combination, operation or use. THE FOREGOING IS ALTUS’ SOLE LIABILITY RELATING TO ANY CLAIMS OF INFRINGEMENT OF ANY THIRD PARTY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS. ALTUS EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, RELATING TO CLAIMS THAT ITS PRODUCTS INFRINGE ANY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS.

(b) Property Damage and Personal Injury. Altus agrees to indemnify and hold harmless PSS and its affiliates from and against any loss, liability, claim, injury or damage (including reasonable attorneys fees) sustained by it as a result of any claim by any third party for property damage, or personal injury or death suffered by a third party to the extent such damage or injury is caused by Altus’ negligence, willful misconduct or breach of this Agreement, or any defect in the design or manufacture of the Product(s).

11.3 Procedure. With respect to any claim for which indemnification is available hereunder, the indemnified party shall (a) provide prompt notice of such claim to the indemnifying party, (b) reasonably cooperate with the indemnifying party with respect to the investigation and defense of the claim and (c) permit the indemnifying party to control the defense and settlement of the claim.

12.0 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.

NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER TERM IN THIS AGREEMENT, NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS OF USE, REVENUE OR ANTICIPATED PROFITS, OR FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES RELATING TO OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE SALE OR USE OF THE PRODUCTS.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a party’s performance is prevented, restricted or interfered with for more than ninety days due to a force majeure event, then the other party may terminate this Agreement by written notice without any liability.

The initial term together with any renewal terms shall be referred to herein as the “Term”.

14.2 Automatic Termination and Termination Without Cause.

Altus hereby grants PSS the right to use its names and trademarks to perform its duties pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and solely in compliance with such rules as Altus may establish from time to time.

AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO SALES AGENT AGREEMENT

This Amendment No. 2 To Sales Agent Agreement (“Amendment”) is made this 6th day of November 2003, between Altus Medical, Inc. (“Altus”) and PSS World Medical, Inc. (“PSS”).

WHEREAS, Altus and PSS entered into that February 14, 2003 Sales Agent Agreement and that March 17, 2003 Amendment No. 1 To Sales Agent Agreement (collectively, “Agreement”), and are hereby amending the Agreement as follows:

1. Recital C. is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:

“C. The parties desire that PSS act as a distributor for certain of Altus’ products pursuant to the terms and conditions herein.”

2. Sections 1.2, 3.4 and 5.4 are hereby deleted. Also deleted is the second sentence of Section 4.1, and the second, third and fourth sentences of Section 14.2.(c).

3. Section 1.4 is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:

“1.4 Products means Altus’ CoolGlide CV-, CoolGlide Excel-, CoolGlide Vantage-, CoolGlide Genesis-, CoolGlide Xeo- and CoolGlide Genesis Plus systems. Notwithstanding any other term in this Agreement, Altus may from time to time discontinue the manufacture and/or sale of any or all Products, and/or change its service policies, warranties and product designs without any obligation or liability to PSS. Products will be newly manufactured but may contain used components. Any software and/or firmware included with the Products are licensed (and not sold) to PSS. Altus grants to PSS a nonexclusive license (transferable only to PSS’ customers) to use such software and/or firmware in connection with the use of the Products. PSS may not modify, decompile or reverse engineer any such software or firmware. No other license, by implication or otherwise, is granted to PSS.”

4. Section 2.1 is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:

“2.1 Appointment. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Altus hereby appoints PSS as its exclusive third party distributor of the Products to licensed physicians (“Physicians”) in the Territory, and PSS accepts such appointment. Altus agrees to sell Products to PSS, and PSS agrees to purchase the same from Altus only for resale to Physicians for delivery and use within the Territory, under the terms and conditions herein. The ‘exclusivity’ of this appointment means that Altus will not appoint any other third-party distributors to resell Products to Physicians for delivery and use within the Territory. (For purposes of the foregoing sentence, an entity that is a beauty- or spa chain or franchise or otherwise an entity that may purchase multiple units of Products foritself and its affiliates will not be deemed to be a ‘distributor.’) Notwithstanding any other term in this Agreement, Altus reserves the right, without any compensation owing to PSS, to market and sell the Products in the Territory through its employees and third-party leasing companies.”

5. Section 2.4 is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:

“2.4 Orders.

a. PSS will submit purchase orders for the Products from time to time, and each order will be subject to Altus’ acceptance. Each order will specify the types and quantities of requested Products, and the proposed delivery dates and destination points. No other terms or conditions on any PSS order shall be binding on Altus unless expressly accepted in writing by Altus. The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be incorporated into each PSS order. In the event of any conflicts, differences or inconsistencies between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and those of any PSS order, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall govern. PSS will provide Altus with the contact information of each entity that purchases Products from PSS.

b. PSS will provide Altus monthly with written forecasts, containing non-binding projections of the types and quantities of Products PSS expects to purchase during a rolling six-month period from the date of that Forecast, broken down by months.

c. Title and risk of loss and damage will pass to PSS at Altus’ factory. Products are deemed accepted upon shipment. Delivery dates are approximate only. Products may be drop shipped to PSS’ customers. PSS may, without any liability to Altus, cancel an order in whole or in part anytime before original scheduled shipment date; provided, that written notice of cancellation must be received by Altus prior to such date.

d. Products may be returned only under warranty and only after PSS has obtained a Return Material Authorization (RMA) number from Altus. Returned Products must be shipped to Altus’ factory with freight and insurance prepaid by Altus.”

6. Section 3.3 is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:

“3.3.a. If the Prospect is an Altus Prospect, then PSS will not sell, or attempt to sell, any Products to that Prospect for one hundred twenty days from the date that Altus notified PSS that that is an Altus Prospect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to the provisions of Section 2.2, nothing herein shall prohibit PSS from calling, communicating with, marketing to or selling non-Altus Products to Altus Prospects.

3.3.b. If the Prospect is not an Altus Prospect, than Altus will not sell, or attempt to sell, any Products to that Prospect for one hundred twenty days from the date that PSS first identified it to Altus as a Prospect.”

7. The third sentence of Section 5.2 is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:

“Altus shall provide demonstrations of the Product to Prospects as needed, and will provide all installation work for Products. Altus agrees to provide sales and promotional support and after-sale service support to all Prospects and PSS customers with the same diligence, quality and timeliness as Altus provides to its Prospects and customers.”

8. Section 5.3 is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:

“By December 1, 2003, the parties will negotiate in good faith and sign a marketing agreement. Under the terms of that agreement: (i) Altus will provide sales literature, marketing material and competitive information (“Marketing Materials”), in such reasonable quantities as may hereafter be agreed in writing by the parties, for use by PSS in connection with its marketing and distribution efforts hereunder; and, (ii) PSS will allow Altus, at costs to be mutually agreed to by the parties, to participate in PSS’ sales

and marketing events, including product fairs, workshops and sales meetings, and to list Altus’ Products in PSS’ catalogs.”

8a. Section 5.5 is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:

“5.5 Altus shall maintain product liability and commercial general liability insurance policies with coverage in at least the amount of two million dollars ($2,000,000). Altus shall provide proof of such insurance upon the request of PSS.”

8b. The following is added as Sections 6.3 and 6.4:

“6.3 Altus shall comply with all laws, regulations and orders relating to its performance under this Agreement, including without limitation all anti-fraud and anti-kickback laws, regulations and orders.

6.4 Altus shall not, directly or indirectly, pay any compensation, amounts, benefits or other consideration to any PSS employee, or any family member of a PSS employee, (other than customary gifts valued under $100 in the course of one year, and business meals in the ordinary course) without the express written consent of PSS. This section shall survive termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason.”

9. Section 7.1 is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:

“7.1 Product Warranty. Products sold pursuant to this Agreement will come with Altus’ then-current product warranty, which will be solely for benefit of, and assignable to, PSS’ customers. Altus’ current product warranty is attached hereto as Exhibit B; provided, that Altus may from time to time modify this warranty without any obligation or liability to PSS.”

10. Section 8 is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:

“8.0 Price and Payment.

8.1. Price. The purchase prices to PSS for the Products will be as set forth in Exhibit A, attached hereto. The difference between the Purchase Price and PSS’ selling price (which shall be determined in PSS’ sole discretion) shall be PSS’ sole compensation for sales of the Products. Freight and insurance will be prepaid by Altus and is included in the purchase price. Prices exclude taxes, which are PSS’ responsibility (excluding only taxes based on Altus’ net income). Wherever applicable, all such taxes may be added to the invoice or invoiced separately.

8.2. Payment. Payment terms are fifty (50) days from the date of Altus’ invoice. Delinquent invoices shall have a late payment charge of the lesser of eighteen percent per year or the maximum legal rate assessed against any unpaid balance from the original due date until the date of payment. (Any payments owing by Altus to PSS hereunder will be due fifty (50) days from the date of PSS’ invoice, and will be subject to the foregoing late-payment charge.) Altus may withhold shipments if PSS is delinquent in making payments or in breach of this Agreement. Until the full purchase price has been received by Altus, Altus shall retain a security interest in the Products (and any proceeds thereof) and the right to immediate possession thereof (without prejudice to any other available remedies). PSS shall, from time to time, take all acts requested by Altus to transfer, create, perfect, preserve and/or enforce this security interest.”

11. Section 14.2.(c) is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:

“Notwithstanding Section 14.1, either party may terminate this Agreement, without cause, by delivering a written notice to the other party, which termination will take effect 180 days following delivery of such written notice. After 90 days following delivery of such notice, PSS’ appointment will convert to ‘nonexclusive,’ meaning that Altus may, without any compensation owing to PSS, appoint third parties to market, sell and distribute the Products to Physicians in the Territory. PSS and Altus agree to work cooperatively in this transition period.”

11a. Section 14.5 is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:

“14.5 Immediately upon the termination of this Agreement, PSS will discontinue holding itself out as an authorized Altus distributor, and will return to Altus at PSS’ expense, or destroy, all price lists, catalogs, Marketing Materials and all other sales aids that were furnished by or through Altus to PSS hereunder.”

12. A new Section 17 is hereby added to the Agreement as follows:

“17. PSS’ Agreements With Its Customers. All sales and other agreements between PSS and its customers are PSS’ exclusively, and shall have no effect on the respective obligations of Altus and PSS under this Agreement.”

13. Exhibit A is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:

“Product Pricing

For Products sold to PSS from the date of this Amendment until March 31, 2004, the unit pricing will be as set forth below. The pricing for Products sold after March 31, 2004 will be negotiated by the parties in good faith at least two months before that date.

Altus warrants solely to the end-user customer for one year from initial shipment of a Product that such Product will be free from defects in workmanship and materials. This warranty is subject to proper use, operation and maintenance of the Product in accordance with the operator manual, and shall not apply if the Product has been damaged after delivery, or misused, altered, disassembled or serviced by any person other than Altus. Altus’ sole obligation under this warranty shall be, at Altus’ option, to repair or replace any Product defect that was present when the Product was first shipped, or to refund the applicable purchase price upon the return of the Product to Altus. Repaired or replacement Products or components thereof will be warranted as provided in this subsection for either the remainder of the original Product’s original warranty period or thirty days from when the defective Product or component was repaired or the replacement Product or component was first shipped, whichever is longer. Product upgrades and components purchased separately (including the Cool Glide Xeo hand piece) will be warranted as provided in this section for either the remainder of the related Product’s original warranty period or ninety days from initial shipment, whichever is longer. Software and firmware licensed herein will be warranted as provided in this subsection for ninety days from initial shipment. Altus makes no warranties with respect to a Product’s removable hand piece window. THE FOREGOING PRODUCT WARRANTIES AND REMEDIES ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHERS.
