For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.1.3 shall only apply to pre-existing intellectual property that is owned or controlled by Xxxxxx immediately before a Change of Control of Xxxxxx to the extent such intellectual property covers FOSSL Technology in the applicable Licensed Fields; other intellectual property that is owned or controlled by an acquiror or entity controlling Xxxxxx after a Change of Control (or their affiliates), and any intellectual property invented, created, developed, acquired, licensed or otherwise controlled by such acquiror or entity (or their affiliates) after such Change of Control of Xxxxxx, are not subject to the covenant not to xxx of this Section 2.1.3.

2.1.4 Results of Development and Supply Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the licenses and sublicenses granted to Philips under this Agreement include access to and the right to use the results of Xxxxxx’x and Xxxx’x continuing work [***] to the extent expressly set forth in Sections 2, 5 and 8 of this Agreement, [***] under the Luna-Philips Joint Development Agreement (if any) subject to and to the extent of Xxxxxx’x rights thereto pursuant to the Xxxxxx-Xxxx Agreement.

2.1.5 Further Transfers of Licensed Xxxxxx IP. In the event that Xxxxxx would sell, assign or otherwise transfer ownership in any of the Licensed Xxxxxx IP to an Affiliate or a Third Party, Xxxxxx shall explicitly stipulate that the rights and licenses granted to Philips and its present and future Affiliates pursuant to this Agreement shall remain in force and any transfer or assignment not so construed shall be null and void.

3.2 Initial Payment. At the Closing, Philips shall pay to Xxxxxx an initial non-refundable, non-creditable payment of [***]. Until such payment is made by Philips, no licenses or assignments granted under this Agreement shall be deemed effective. The Parties acknowledge that, subject to the terms and conditions of the SPE-Philips Agreement, Philips is required to make a separate initial payment of [***] to SPE in consideration of the rights granted with respect to the Licensed Xxxx IP under the SPE-Philips Agreement.

3.3 FOSSL Enabled Product Payments. In further consideration of the rights granted hereunder by Xxxxxx to Philips, following the Closing, Philips shall make a royalty payment in the form of a FOSSL Enabled Product Payment to Xxxxxx for each calendar year from 2014 to 2020 (or as otherwise shifted for a specific Licensed Field in accordance with the terms of Section 3.3.1) for the [***] FOSSL System ([***]) of any version delivered to, accepted by, and paid for, by [***] customers in that respective year and for each unit of FOSSL Systems delivered to and accepted by Philips’ (or its Affiliates’ or their respective licensees’ or sublicensees’) customers in excess of [***] in that respective year. The FOSSL Enabled Product Payment shall be made [***]. For all FOSSL Systems for which a FOSSL Enabled Product Payment is due, the FOSSL Enabled Product Payments made in a given calendar year shall be an amount which is equal to [***] (due within [***] of receiving an invoice for the amount due after the delivery and acceptance of the [***] of a FOSSL System in the applicable calendar year when [***] plus [***] for each delivered and accepted FOSSL System after the total of such deliveries during the applicable calendar year reaches [***]. For the avoidance of doubt, [***] of this Section 3.3 shall [***].

3.3.1 Extension. If any Buy Back Period is extended or tolled pursuant to Section 4.3 and/or Section 4.4, the time period during which FOSSL Enabled Product Payments are due under Section 3.3 shall be extended with respect to that specific Licensed Field for an amount of time equivalent to the amount by which any Buy Back Period is so extended or tolled. For avoidance of doubt, if the Vascular Buy Back Period is extended for six (6) months, the payment period of Section 3.3 would be extended for six (6) months for sales in the Vascular Non-Robotic Field only.

3.4 Reduction Due to Royalty Stacking. In the event that Philips reasonably believes that it is required to make any royalty or similar payments to a Third Party for FOSSL Technology in order to exploit the licenses granted under Article 2 to Philips for Licensed Xxxxxx IP and/or under Article 2 of the SPE-Philips Agreement for Licensed Xxxx IP, Philips may deduct from the FOSSL Enabled Product Payments payable to Xxxxxx pursuant to Section 3.3 of this Agreement or Section 3.2 of the SPE-Philips Agreement, [***] of such royalties paid to such Third Parties, but in no event may the royalties payable to Xxxxxx under this Agreement and to the SPE under the SPE-Philips Agreement be reduced by more than [***] as a result of this Section 3.4.

Naked (Sub)licenses and Cross Licenses.

3.5.1 If Philips or its Affiliates enters into a Naked License or Naked Sublicense based on the FOSSL IP then Philips shall pay [***] of the Reasonably Perceived Net Value to Xxxxxx ([***]), if and when that value is realized by Philips or its present or future Affiliates. The “Reasonably Perceived Net Value” ([***]) shall include [***] consideration received by Philips or its present or future Affiliates, as applicable, less, to the extent incurred [***] costs for licensing out and patent costs and expenses for the FOSSL IP (collectively, “Licensing Out Costs”)). Philips will notify Xxxxxx promptly, and in any event within [***] following the execution of any Naked License or Naked Sublicense, which will include a description of the terms of such license, and will thereafter notify Xxxxxx within [***] of receipt of consideration therefrom, which will include a description and calculation of the Reasonably Perceived Net Value and [***] (e.g. reporting [***]). If Xxxxxx disputes Philips’ Reasonably Perceived Net Value, the Parties may submit the dispute to a neutral Third Party for [***] of the appropriate Reasonably Perceived Net Value, [***]. Such neutral Third Party shall be any one [***], provided however that it shall not at that time be engaged by [***]. Licensing Out Costs applied against such revenue [***]. The total of Out-Licensing Payments to Xxxxxx (under this Agreement) and SPE (under the SPE-Philips Agreement) from Philips shall not in any event, for any reason, exceed US [***]. Out-Licensing Payments will be due within [***] of receiving an invoice for such payment. With each Out-Licensing Payment, Philips shall provide Xxxxxx a written report specifying in reasonable detail the form of underlying revenue received or grant given and the calculation of any applicable exclusions specified in this Section 3.5.

3.5.2 If Philips or its present or future Affiliates enters into a cross-license based on the FOSSL IP, and the FOSSL IP is material to the cross license, then Philips shall pay [***] of the Reasonably Perceived Net Value attributed to the FOSSL IP ([***]). For the avoidance of doubt, Philips will not owe any payment to Xxxxxx for cross licenses where the FOSSL IP is included [***]. If Xxxxxx disputes Philips’ Reasonably Perceived Net Value, the Parties may submit the dispute to a neutral Third Party [***] the appropriate Reasonably Perceived Net Value, [***]. Such neutral Third Party shall be any [***], provided however that it shall not at that time be engaged by [***].

3.6 Limitation on Payments. Notwithstanding any provision herein, the FOSSL Enabled Product Payment is limited to FOSSL Systems and shall not apply to any other product or process derived from the Licensed Xxxxxx IP or Licensed Xxxx IP including, but not limited to, [***] that do not meet the definition of a FOSSL System.

3.7 Wiring Instructions. All payments by Philips to Xxxxxx under this Agreement shall be made by wire in U.S. Dollars to the account designated by Xxxxxx in writing.

3.8 Reporting. Subject to the extensions described in Section 3.3.1 above, within thirty (30) calendar days following [***] through 2020, Philips shall submit to Xxxxxx (even in the event that no FOSSL Systems have been manufactured or sold) a Royalty Reporting Form, duly completed by an authorized officer of Philips. Royalty reports shall start with the first

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED		EXECUTION COPY

calendar quarter after shipment of the first FOSSL System for commercial sale, and end with the reporting period that ends December 31, 2020, subject to the extensions described in Section 3.3.1 above.

3.9 Timing; Late Payments. Together with submission of Philips’ Royalty Reporting Form, subject to Section 3.3, Philips shall pay the corresponding FOSSL Enabled Payment due to Xxxxxx hereunder within [***] of receiving an invoice for such payment. Any undisputed amounts not paid when due under this Agreement shall automatically accrue interest from the date when due until actually paid at a rate equal to the sum of [***] plus the prime rate of interest quoted in the Wall Street Journal (West Coast edition) calculated daily on the basis of a 365-day year, or if such edition is unavailable, a similar reputable data source; provided, however, that in no event shall such rate exceed the maximum annual interest rate permitted under applicable law. For the avoidance of doubt, the accrual of interest shall not apply to the initial payment due under this Agreement.

3.10 Taxes. In the event that the governmental authorities of any country imposes any withholding taxes on payments made by Philips to Xxxxxx hereunder and requires Philips to withhold such tax from such payments, Philips may reduce the payment due by the amount of such tax. In such event, Philips shall promptly provide Xxxxxx with tax receipts issued by the relevant tax authorities and with reasonable assistance in obtaining any credits for, and reductions to or exemptions from, such amounts.

3.11 Records. Philips shall (and shall ensure that its Affiliates and their respective licensees and sublicensees, as applicable) maintain complete, true and accurate books of accounts and records reasonably sufficient for the purpose of determining the payments to be made to Xxxxxx under this Agreement for at least [***] following the end of the calendar quarter to which they pertain. Xxxxxx may at its own expense audit such books of account limited to Philips’ (and its Affiliates’ and their respective licensees’ and sublicensees’) sale of the FOSSL Systems and the revenue and Licensing Out Costs described in Section 3.5 at the place where such books are kept, in order to verify Philips’ royalty statements provided for in this Article 3. Any such audit shall be conducted only once per calendar year per set of books, upon at least 21 days prior written notice and by an independent professional auditor reasonably acceptable to Philips and bound by written confidentiality obligations, during normal business hours and in such a manner as not to interfere unduly with normal business activities. A copy of any report made by such auditor shall be delivered to Philips at the same time as such report is delivered to Xxxxxx. No audit in respect of any royalty statement shall commence later than [***] from the date of such royalty statement, and only one audit shall be conducted in respect of any such statement, except that if any material errors or discrepancies are uncovered during an audit, more audits shall be allowed until such material uncovered errors or discrepancies are resolved. Any materials created by the audit shall be treated by Xxxxxx and Philips as confidential information.

3.12 Reports in General. Philips’ royalty statements and its accounting records shall be final and binding on Xxxxxx unless (a) written detailed objection to them is given to Philips by Xxxxxx within [***] from the date of the relevant statement and unless any action or

[***] CONFIDENTIAL PORTIONS OF THIS DOCUMENT REDACTED AND

proceedings in respect of the same are commenced within twelve months from the date of such written objection, (b) an audit uncovers a material error or discrepancy or (c) such statements and records are the subject of fraud, gross negligence or a breach of this Agreement.

3.13 Confidential Nature of Reports. The Royalty Reporting Forms provided by Philips to Xxxxxx under this Article 3 in writing and marked as Confidential shall be treated by Xxxxxx as confidential.

3.14 Additional Payment Reductions. In the event that all of the Licensed Patents and all of the Xxxxxx Purchased Patents covering a FOSSL System are declared invalid by a court or governmental authority of competent jurisdiction (and from which decision no appeal is taken or can be taken), Philips may deduct [***] of the amounts due from the FOSSL Enabled Product Payments payable to Xxxxxx pursuant to [***] of this Agreement (and to SPE pursuant to [***] of the SPE-Philips Agreement) and the payments payable to Xxxxxx for the grant of a Naked License or Naked Sublicense pursuant to [***] of this Agreement (and to SPE for the grant of a Naked License or Naked Sublicense pursuant to [***] the SPE-Philips Agreement).

3.15 Additional Payment Reductions For Non-Patent FOSSL IP. For a given FOSSL System, Naked License, Naked Sublicense or cross license (as described in Section 3.5 of this Agreement or Section 3.3 of the SPE-Philips Agreement), FOSSL Enabled Product Payments under Section 3.3 of this Agreement and Section 3.2 of the SPE-Philips Agreement for such FOSSL System and Out-Licensing Payments for such Naked License, Naked Sublicense or cross license under Section 3.5 of this Agreement or Section 3.3 of the SPE-Philips Agreement will be reduced by an additional [***] if (a) the event described in Section 3.14 occurs and (b) the FOSSL System, Naked License, Naked Sublicense or cross license only includes non-patent FOSSL IP or FOSSL Technology that is not subject to copyright protection, and:

a) was known to the general public before the Signing Date;

b) was rightfully known by Philips or its present or future Affiliate before receipt from Xxxxxx or Xxxx;

c) becomes rightfully known to Philips or its present of future Affiliate from a source other than Xxxxxx or Xxxx without breach of a duty of confidentiality to Xxxxxx or Xxxx or its Affiliates; or

d) is independently developed by Philips or its present or future Affiliate without the use of or access to the confidential information or other FOSSL IP of Xxxxxx or Xxxx.

For the sake of clarity, in the event that both Sections 3.14 and 3.15 apply to a particular FOSSL System, Naked License, Naked Sublicense or cross license (as described in Section 3.5), [***] for FOSSL Enabled Product Payments or Out-Licensing Payments with respect to such FOSSL System, Naked License, Naked Sublicense or cross license.

4.	Anti-Shelving Provisions

4.1 Marketing Requirement; Buy Back. Philips (or its present or future Affiliates) shall [***] of any FOSSL System in each Buy Back Field for commercial sale and clinical use [***] (the “Marketing Requirement”) in each of the following periods, subject [***]. For the avoidance of doubt, Philips’ efforts with respect to satisfying or not satisfying the Marketing Requirement shall apply with respect to application of this Article 4 of this Agreement and Article 4 of the SPE-Philips Agreement and the rights of Xxxxxx and SPE under such articles.

4.1.1 Vascular Buy Back Period. Subject to any applicable cure period in Section 4.2, or any extensions set forth in Section 4.3, Philips (or its present or future Affiliates or their respective licensees or sublicensees) shall satisfy the Marketing Requirement in the Vascular Buy Back Field within [***] following the Closing Date of the Agreement (“Vascular Buy Back Period”).

4.1.2 Endoluminal Buy Back Period. Subject to any applicable cure period in Section 4.2, or any extensions set forth in Section 4.3, Philips (or its present or future Affiliates or their respective licensees or sublicensees) shall satisfy the Marketing Requirement in the Endoluminal Buy Back Field within [***] following the Closing Date of the Agreement (“Endoluminal Buy Back Period”). The Marketing Requirement for the Endoluminal Buy Back Field shall also be met in the Endoluminal Buy Back Period if the [***].

4.1.3 Orthopedics Buy Back Period. Subject to any applicable cure period in Section 4.2, or any extensions set forth in Section 4.3, Philips (or its present or future Affiliates or their respective licensees or sublicensees) shall satisfy the Marketing Requirement in the Orthopedics Buy Back Field within [***] following the Closing Date of the Agreement (“Orthopedics Buy Back Period”). The Marketing Requirement for the Orthopedics Buy Back Field shall also be met in the Orthopedics Buy Back Period if the [***].

4.1.4 For avoidance of doubt, such Marketing Requirements under this Section 4.1 in the respective Buy Back Fields are one time requirements for each applicable Buy Back Field.

4.2 Cure Periods. Philips shall have [***] after such time period to cure any Marketing Requirement deficiency. If Philips does not cure within such [***] period, then: (a) Philips shall grant (and hereby grants, effective upon the end of the Vascular Buy Back Period for the Vascular Buy Back Field if the Marketing Requirement for (i) above is not met, upon the end of the Endoluminal Buy Back Period for the Endoluminal Buy Back Field if the Marketing Requirement for (ii) above is not met, and upon the end of the Orthopedics Buy Back Period for the Orthopedics Buy Back Field if the Marketing Requirement for (iii) above is not met) a nonexclusive, worldwide, transferable, royalty-free, fully paid up license (with the right to sublicense through one or multiple tiers) under the Purchased Xxxxxx Patents and Licensed Xxxxxx IP to Xxxxxx and under the Licensed Xxxx IP to SPE to research, develop, make, have made, use, have used, import, sell, have sold and otherwise commercialize and exploit Products in each case solely within the applicable Buy Back Field(s) for which the Marketing

Requirement has not been met within the time periods specified above; (b) Philips hereby grants to Xxxxxx (with respect to the foregoing license granted to Xxxxxx) and to SPE (with respect to the foregoing license granted to SPE) the option (which must be exercised within [***]) to convert the foregoing license granted to Xxxxxx and SPE in clause (a) from a nonexclusive license to an exclusive license (except with respect to the SDOF Endoluminal Robotics Field, SDOF Orthopedics Robotics Field and SDOF Vascular Robotics Field, for which Philips acknowledges that the licenses granted to Philips in Section 2.1.1 of the SPE-Philips Agreement and Section 2.1.1 of this Agreement shall terminate), exercisable by written notice to Philips and payment of [***] to Xxxxxx and [***] to SPE with respect to the Vascular Buy Back Field, [***] to Xxxxxx and [***]to SPE with respect to the Endoluminal Buy Back Field or [***] to Xxxxxx and [***] to SPE with respect to the Orthopedics Buy Back Field (“Buy Back Price”); and (c) the scope of the licenses and rights granted to Philips for such Buy Back Field pursuant to this Agreement and the SPE-Philips Agreement shall be automatically adjusted with no further action required by the Parties to reflect the license rights of Xxxxxx and SPE under clauses (a) and/or (b) (e.g., the applicable licenses granted to Philips shall be terminated so that the corresponding rights revert back to Xxxxxx and SPE (as applicable), together with all rights to enforce the applicable patents in the applicable Buy Back Field, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Article 12). The Parties shall, however, agree upon which Party will prosecute and maintain any pending or future patent or patent application(s) relating to the Licensed Patents. To be clear, with the exception of prosecution, if Xxxxxx exercises its option for a Buy Back Field pursuant to clause (b), Philips shall thereafter have no rights under the FOSSL IP licensed from Xxxxxx or SPE for such Buy Back Field.

Any license granted by Philips to a Third Party under the applicable FOSSL IP or FOSSL Technology up until the expiration of the Buy Back Period, however, will remain in force (“Surviving Buy-Back Sublicense”) [***], and the Parties will reasonably agree on a case by case basis [***] under the Surviving Buy Back Sublicense and the scope of the Surviving Buy Back Sublicense relative to the total Buy Back Field. The [***] that may thus result for the Buy Back Price is [***].

4.3 Potential Extension of Buy Back Periods. The Vascular Buy Back Period, Endoluminal Buy Back Period and Orthopedics Buy Back Period (each, a “Buy Back Period”) may be extended under either Section 4.3.1 or Section 4.3.2 but not both. To be clear, if Philips elects to extend a Buy Back Period under Section 4.3.1, Philips may not also elect to extend the same Buy Back Period under Section 4.3.2, and vice versa.

4.3.1 Potential Extension for Filing an Application. If Philips has [***] for any FOSSL System for commercial sale and clinical use in a given Buy Back Field at least [***] prior to the expiration of the Buy Back Period for such Buy Back Field, Philips may elect by written notice to Xxxxxx to extend the Buy Back Period for such Buy Back Field as follows:

(ii) If Philips fails to meet the Marketing Requirement in the Orthopedics Buy Back Field, then Philips may, at its option (but is not required to) purchase an additional [***] extension of the Orthopedics Buy Back Period for [***] to SPE and [***] to Xxxxxx, or a [***] extension for [***] to SPE and [***] to Xxxxxx. Such payment shall be credited against [***].

(iii) If the [***] of the Development and Supply Agreement is not met by Xxxx under the Development and Supply Agreement by [***], then the [***] term of the Vascular Buy Back Period will be extended [***] up to a maximum of [***] until such time as Xxxxxx decides, in good faith, that [***] has been met. Philips shall not be entitled to any additional extension of the Vascular Buy Back Period beyond the [***]extension, except when relying on Section 4.3.1 (i).

4.4 Tolling. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, if Philips is delayed or prevented from meeting the Marketing Requirement due to the institution of a legal claim brought by a Third Party against Philips or its present or future Affiliates or administrative proceeding relating to the subject matter of this Agreement or the existence of licensing negotiations in connection with a potential legal claim brought by a Third Party against Philips or its present or future Affiliates relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, the Buy Back Period shall be tolled until such reason for Philips’ inability to meet the Marketing Requirement is eliminated.

5. Source Code Escrow. During the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending fifteen (15) years thereafter, Xxxxxx shall deposit and maintain in escrow all source code within the Licensed Xxxxxx IP and Licensed Xxxx IP (and documentation, libraries, tools, utilities and other related materials reasonably necessary for the installation, testing, deployment, operation, modification or use of such software source code) in Xxxxxx’x possession and under Xxxxxx’x control for software necessary to operate Products within the Licensed Fields and using FOSSL

5.1 During such period, Xxxxxx shall periodically update such Source Code Materials with the latest versions thereof in Xxxxxx’x possession and under Xxxxxx’x control.

5.2 During such period, the Source Code Materials shall be released to Philips in the event of the bankruptcy, liquidation or insolvency of Xxxxxx or an assignment for the benefit of creditors by Xxxxxx, or in the event that Philips requires access to the Source Code Materials to comply with any governmental request. In addition, unless otherwise provided for separately in an agreement between Xxxxxx and Philips, if Philips requests modifications to software licensed hereunder, including without limitation bug fixes or additional functionality requested by Philips, and Xxxxxx refuses to perform the development, maintenance or support of such software requested by Philips at Xxxxxx’x standard rates or other reasonable and customary terms (it being understood that Xxxxxx has no obligation to do so), then Xxxxxx shall cause the release of the applicable portion of the software to Philips. Philips shall protect the confidentiality of any source code made available to it hereunder with the same degree of care it uses to protect its own source code and in any event no less than reasonable care.

5.3 All fees and expenses payable to [***] (or such other escrow company, if any) for the establishment and maintenance of such escrow arrangement shall be borne and paid by Philips.

5.4 If Xxxxxx has in Xxxxxx’x possession and under Xxxxxx’x control any source code within the Licensed Xxxx IP (e.g., after the release of such source code to Xxxxxx pursuant to the terms and conditions of Xxxxxx’x escrow agreement with Xxxx, in the event of a default by Xxxx which causes such source code to be released from escrow), Xxxxxx shall deposit such source code into escrow for inclusion as part of the Source Code Materials hereunder.

6. Non-Competition. Except for Xxxxxx Products within a Buy Back Field for which Xxxxxx obtains rights pursuant to Section 4, during the Term of the Agreement, Xxxxxx shall not directly or indirectly develop, manufacture, distribute, sell or market any Xxxxxx Products in the Vascular Non-Robotic Field, the Endoluminal Non-Robotic Field, the Non-Robotic Medical Devices Field (including the Colonoscopy Non-Robotic Field), and the Orthopedics Field. To avoid doubt, the foregoing covenant shall not be read or interpreted to extend to the SDOF Medical Robotics Field and the Medical Robotics Field. The covenant of this Section 6 shall not apply to any entity that acquires Xxxxxx, by a Change of Control or otherwise, or any other Affiliate of Xxxxxx following a Change of Control of Xxxxxx or its Affiliates, with respect to any intellectual property rights that such entity owned or otherwise controlled prior to the Change of Control or after such Change of Control (other than the FOSSL IP), or with respect to any activities already done by that entity prior to the Change of Control or after such Change of Control (other than in connection with the FOSSL IP).

Within the later of 60 days following the Signing Date or five (5) days following the Closing Date, Xxxxxx shall transfer all files relating to the prosecution and maintenance of the Purchased Xxxxxx Patents to Philips. Xxxxxx shall advise Philips of any filing deadlines due within 90 days of such transfer, and shall be responsible for maintaining the files and satisfying all filing obligations that are due prior to the transfer at Philips’ cost and expense. Upon such transfer, Philips shall have the sole right and obligation, at Philips’ cost and expense, subject to Xxxxxx’x rights under this Section 9.1, to file, prosecute and maintain the Purchased Xxxxxx Patents. Philips shall provide Xxxxxx (through patent counsel designated as set forth in Section 9.4. of this Agreement) with copies of all material correspondence, applications and filings reasonably in advance of filing or sending them to the applicable patent office for Xxxxxx’x review and comment. Xxxxxx shall have the right to monitor and comment on patent filings of Purchased Xxxxxx Patents and the right to recommend claims directed to the Medical Robotics Field or SDOF Medical Robotics Field.

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED		EXECUTION COPY

the SDOF Medical Robotics Field or in the Medical Robotics Fields, if elections regarding obtaining patent term restoration (i.e. to take into account a regulatory review period) are to be made and the Parties do not agree, Xxxxxx shall have the right to make the election and Philips shall abide by such election. With respect to the Purchased Xxxxxx Patents, Philips shall provide Xxxxxx with copies of all material correspondence, applications and filings filed with, sent to or received from the applicable patent office (following the receipt, filing or submission thereof, as the case may be). Xxxxxx shall have the right to request filing of divisional applications, continuations, or national stage entries for claim coverage in the SDOF Medical Robotics Field or in the Medical Robotics Field. In the event that Xxxxxx requests any divisional applications, continuations or national stage entries with respect to patent applications within the Purchased Xxxxxx Patents, Xxxxxx will pay for any prosecution of those applications and other costs and expenses associated therewith and have rights to file, prosecute, maintain and enforce such patent rights as set forth in this Agreement. If Philips decides to cease prosecution or maintenance of any of the Purchased Xxxxxx Patents, Philips shall first provide Xxxxxx with written notice of such decision within a reasonable period (but at least [***] if practicable) prior to any pending filing or maintenance fee deadline of which it is aware so Xxxxxx may take, at Xxxxxx’x sole cost and expense, whatever reasonable action may be necessary with respect thereto. Xxxxxx may, in its sole discretion, thereafter assume responsibility for such prosecution or maintenance at its sole cost and expense, and shall notify Philips in writing prior to assumption if it elects to assume such responsibility. In such event, Philips and its Affiliates shall have a license under such Purchased Xxxxxx Patent as if such Purchased Xxxxxx Patent were a Licensed Xxxxxx Patent, and shall assign (and hereby assigns, effective as of Philips’ receipt of Xxxxxx’x notice therefor) to Xxxxxx such Purchased Xxxxxx Patent, and thereafter Xxxxxx shall provide Philips, upon Philips’s request, with copies of all material correspondence, applications, and other filings with respect to any such Purchased Xxxxxx Patents assumed by Xxxxxx filed with, sent to or received from the applicable patent offices (following the receipt, filing or submission thereof, as the case may be). In the event Xxxxxx so elects to assume such responsibility for a given Purchased Xxxxxx Patent, Philips shall reasonably cooperate at Xxxxxx’x cost and expense. In the event such Purchased Xxxxxx Patents become involved in any litigation, each Party shall have its respective rights set forth in Article 12 below.

9.2 Licensed Xxxx Patents. With respect to the Licensed Xxxx Patents, licensed by Philips under the SPE-Philips Agreement, Philips acknowledges that prosecution and maintenance of the Licensed Xxxx Patents is controlled by Xxxx pursuant to the terms of Section 5 of the Xxxxxx-Xxxx Agreement. Xxxxxx shall provide Philips with copies of all material correspondence, applications and filings with respect to the Licensed Xxxx Patents filed with, sent to or received from the applicable patent office that Xxxxxx receives from Xxxx. If Xxxx provides Xxxxxx written notice of Xxxx’x decision to cease prosecution or maintenance of any of the Licensed Xxxx Patents (in one or more countries), Xxxxxx may thereafter assume responsibility for such prosecution or maintenance in accordance with the Xxxxxx-Xxxx Agreement. In such event, the following shall apply: Xxxxxx shall first consult with Philips to determine whether Philips wishes to maintain an interest in the respective applications and filings. Xxxxxx shall have the sole right to file, prosecute and maintain the Licensed Xxxx Patents through outside counsel (Section 9.4). If Philips as well as Xxxxxx is interested in

maintaining an interest in the applications and filings, the Parties shall share [***] the costs of such filing, prosecution and maintenance, and Philips shall reimburse Xxxxxx for Philips’ share within sixty (60) days after the date of invoice therefor obtained from Xxxxxx or directly from prosecution counsel. If only Philips (and not Xxxxxx) is interested in maintaining an interest in the applications and filings, Philips shall take over filing, prosecution and maintenance of the respective patent family(ies).

For Licensed Xxxx Patents that are prosecuted/maintained by Xxxxxx according to this article, Xxxxxx shall provide Philips with copies of all material correspondence, applications and filings for the Licensed Xxxx Patents reasonably in advance of filing or sending them to the applicable patent office for Philips’s review and comment and the rights and duties of the Parties with respect to such Licensed Xxxx Patents will be the same as set forth below in Section 9.3 with respect to Xxxxxx Group 2 Patents, but Xxxxxx shall have the final authority with respect thereto. In the event such Licensed Xxxx Patents become involved in any litigation, each Party shall have its respective rights set forth in Article 12 below.

9.3 Xxxxxx Group 2 Patents. For the avoidance of doubt, Xxxxxx retains all rights to file, prosecute, maintain and, to the extent set forth in Article 12 of this Agreement, enforce patent rights in and to the Licensed Xxxxxx IP in Xxxxxx’x discretion. Philips shall have the right to monitor and comment on patent filings of Xxxxxx Group 2 Patents and the right to recommend claims directed to the Licensed Field. Xxxxxx shall reasonably consider any comments provided by Philips (including with respect to filing in a particular jurisdiction), but Xxxxxx shall have the final authority with respect to such correspondence, applications and filings, except that Xxxxxx shall not abandon or modify claims directed to the Licensed Fields without either Philips’s prior written consent (e.g., given by Philips’s review and approval of any draft of a submittal to a patent office which is forwarded to Philips by patent counsel designated as set forth in Section 9.4 of this Agreement) or allowing Philips at least [***] from transmittal of any such draft to Philips to review and approve or provide comments on any such draft; however, with respect to claims within the Xxxxxx Group 2 Patents related to any and all activities and applications in the Licensed Fields, if elections regarding obtaining patent term restoration (i.e. to take into account a regulatory review period) are to be made and the Parties do not agree, Philips shall have the right to make the election and Xxxxxx shall abide by such election. In the event such Xxxxxx Group 2 Patents become involved in any litigation, each Party shall have its respective rights set forth in Article 12 below.

Philips shall have the right to request filing of divisional applications, continuations, or national stage entries for claim coverage in the Licensed Fields In the event that Philips requests any divisional applications, continuations or national stage entries with respect to patent applications within the Xxxxxx Group 2 Patents, Philips will pay for any prosecution of those applications and other costs and expenses associated therewith and have rights to file, prosecute, maintain and enforce such patent rights as set forth in this Agreement.

If Xxxxxx decides to cease prosecution or maintenance of any of the Xxxxxx Group 2 Patents, Xxxxxx shall first provide Philips with written notice of such decision within a reasonable period

[***] CONFIDENTIAL PORTIONS OF THIS DOCUMENT REDACTED AND

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED		EXECUTION COPY

(but at least [***] if practicable) prior to any pending filing or maintenance fee deadline of which it is aware so Philips may take, at Philips’ sole cost and expense, whatever reasonable action may be necessary with respect thereto. Philips may, in its sole discretion, thereafter assume responsibility for such prosecution or maintenance at its sole cost and expense, and shall notify Xxxxxx in writing prior to assumption if it elects to assume such responsibility. If Philips decides to cease prosecution or maintenance of any divisional applications, continuations or national stage entries with respect to patent applications within the Xxxxxx Group 2 Patents, Philips shall first provide Xxxxxx with written notice of such decision within a reasonable period (but at least [***] if practicable) prior to any pending filing or maintenance fee deadline of which it is aware so Xxxxxx may take, at Xxxxxx’x sole cost and expense, whatever reasonable action may be necessary with respect thereto. Xxxxxx may, in its sole discretion, thereafter assume responsibility for such prosecution or maintenance at its sole cost and expense, and shall notify Philips in writing prior to assumption if it elects to assume such responsibility. In such event, Philips and its Affiliates shall continue to have a license under such Xxxxxx Group 2 Patents as if such Purchased Xxxxxx Patent were a Licensed Xxxxxx Patent. Regardless of the foregoing, ownership of the Xxxxxx Group 2 Patents shall remain with Xxxxxx.

9.4 Prosecution Counsel. Philips will select counsel for filing and prosecution of such patent applications (including continuations, divisional applications and non-U.S. national stage filings) as are paid for in whole by Philips as set forth in this Agreement, including, the Purchased Xxxxxx Patents, any Licensed Xxxx Patents for which prosecution and maintenance are assumed by Xxxxxx but paid for in whole by Philips and for which responsibility can be transferred from Xxxx as set forth in the Xxxxxx-Xxxx Agreement or other agreement between Xxxx and Xxxxxx, and any Xxxxxx Group 2 Patents where prosecution and maintenance cost and expense are paid for in whole by Philips (i.e., divisional applications, continuations, or national stage entries filed at the request of Philips for claim coverage in the Licensed Fields and paid for by Philips). Xxxxxx agrees to use reasonable efforts to retain, with respect to its obligations under this Section 9.4, the same counsel for any patent prosecution or maintenance which is continued or later initiated by Xxxxxx, as the counsel Philips uses, with respect to patent applications claiming priority to the Purchased Xxxxxx Patents. The Parties shall use reasonable efforts to assure each patent family is prosecuted by the same counsel and consistent with the efforts taken for other applications and patents governed by this Section 9, notwithstanding the fact that the patent family may include divisional applications requested by Philips. Philips will not be responsible for filing, prosecution, issue, maintenance or other patent costs and expenses related to any Licensed Xxxxxx Patents or Licensed Xxxx Patent unless set forth herein or authorized in advance, in writing, by Philips’ patent portfolio manager.

9.5 Prosecution and Maintenance of Licensed Xxxx Patents. To the fullest extent such rights have been granted to Xxxxxx under the Xxxxxx-Xxxx Agreement or other agreements between Xxxxxx and Xxxx, Philips shall have and Xxxxxx agrees to exercise on Philips’ behalf, in accordance with Section 9.2, the right to monitor and comment on patent filings of Licensed Xxxx Patents, the right to recommend or require (to the extent permitted under the Xxxxxx-Xxxx Agreement) country selection for Licensed Xxxx Patents, particularly with regard to filing and prosecution of non-U.S. counterparts. Subject to Section 9.2, Xxxxxx

shall reasonably consider any comments provided by Philips (including with respect to filing in a particular jurisdiction), and use reasonable efforts to resolve any inconsistencies between Xxxxxx and Philips’ positions with regard to the prosecution, and use reasonable efforts to incorporate Philips’ comments consistent with Xxxxxx’x positions in such Xxxx correspondence, applications and filings. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.5 and in Section 9.2, Philips’ right and ability to monitor and comment on any Licensed Xxxx Patents under this Section 9.5 and Section 9.2 shall be subject to Xxxx’x consent to the extent not already authorized under the Xxxxxx-Xxxx Agreement.

10.	Representations, Warranties and Covenants; Conditions to Closing

10.1 Xxxxxx-Xxxx Agreement. Upon the reasonable request of Philips, following the Closing, Xxxxxx shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce the representations and warranties and covenants received by Xxxxxx in the Xxxxxx-Xxxx Agreement for which Philips presents reasonable evidence of a breach thereof in such notice and which breach would have a material and adverse effect on Philips’ rights hereunder; provided, however, that Xxxxxx shall not be obligated to enforce such representations and warranties and covenants to the extent Xxxxxx reasonably determines it has legitimate concerns that such enforcement will have a significant adverse impact on the other benefits and rights Xxxxxx receives from Xxxx under the Xxxxxx-Xxxx Agreement and/or the Development and Supply Agreement.

10.2 Xxxxxx represents and warrants that, as of the Signing Date and the Closing Date:

10.2.1 Prior to the assignment to Philips hereunder, Xxxxxx is the sole owner of the Purchased Xxxxxx Patents and Xxxxxx has good and marketable title thereto.

None of the Material Contracts are subject to any Third Party lien, charge, security interest or other encumbrance except as may be set forth in the terms and conditions of the Material Contracts. Xxxxxx has not waived or allowed to lapse any of its rights under any of the Material Contracts, and no such rights have lapsed or otherwise expired or been terminated that would have an adverse effect on the rights granted to Philips and its Affiliates hereunder

10.2.9 Xxxxxx is not actually aware of any issued patents or pending patent applications owned by Third Parties that would be infringed by Xxxxxx’x and/or Philips’ practice of the FOSSL IP as such FOSSL IP exists by itself as of the Signing Date (i.e., excluding any modifications, improvements or alterations or incorporation of other technology). This representation is not intended to guarantee that no component of any commercial product of Philips, its Affiliates or its licensees would infringe or otherwise violate patents owned by a Third Party.

10.2.10 To Xxxxxx’x knowledge, Xxxx or any of the patent holders of the FOSSL IP are not due any consideration from Philips as a result of this Agreement.

expenses or loss, including reasonable legal expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees (“Losses”) resulting from or arising out of suits, claims, proceedings or causes of action brought by a Third Party (each, a “Third Party Claim”) against any one or more of the Xxxxxx Indemnitees, arising from this Agreement (i) to the extent based on a proven defect of a FOSSL System sold by Philips or its present or future Affiliates or (ii) for bodily injury including pain and suffering, death and tangible property damage arising from this Agreement to the extent based on: (a) the breach by Philips of this Agreement; (b) the negligence or willful misconduct of Philips or its Affiliates, (c) the violation of applicable law by Philips Medical Systems or its Affiliates; except to the extent for which Xxxxxx is required to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Philips pursuant to Section 11.2; and all limited to the extent the claims are related to this Agreement and connected to FOSSL Technology.

11.2 By Xxxxxx. From and after the Closing, Xxxxxx shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Philips, its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees (the “Philips Indemnitees”) from and against any and all Losses resulting from or arising out of a Third Party Claim against any one or more of the Philips Indemnitees, to the extent based on: (a) the breach by Xxxxxx of this Agreement, including without limitation a representation or warranty or covenant contained in Article 10 or Section 20.5; (b) the violation of applicable law by Xxxxxx or its Affiliates; (c) the negligence or willful misconduct of Xxxxxx or its Affiliates or (d) a claim for which Xxxxxx is indemnified by Xxxx under the Development and Supply Agreement, to the extent Xxxxxx is actually indemnified thereunder; except to the extent for which Philips is required to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Xxxxxx pursuant to Section 11.1; and all limited to the extent the claims are related to this Agreement and connected to FOSSL Technology.

The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume the defense and control of any Third Party Claim at its own cost and expense, but the Indemnitees shall have the right to be represented by its own counsel at its own cost in such matters.

12.	Enforcement of Licensed Patents and Purchased Xxxxxx Patents

12.1 Notification. Each Party shall promptly notify the other Party in writing if the notifying Party reasonably believes that any Purchased Xxxxxx Patent or any of the Licensed Patents is being threatened, being infringed or has been infringed by a Third Party. Neither Party, however, shall seek to enforce, without written consent of the other Party, any claims covering FOSSL Technology within the Purchased Xxxxxx Patents, the Licensed Xxxx Patents or the Xxxxxx Group 2 Patents [***] (as reasonably determined in good faith by the Party seeking to enforce the patent rights) or to obtain an injunction against a potential competitor [***], except to the extent required to comply with Xxxxxx’x obligations under the Xxxxxx-Xxxx Agreement, Development and Supply Agreement or [***]. To be clear, the foregoing shall not apply to Xxxxxx’x right to enforce claims covering non-FOSSL Technology within the Xxxxxx Group 2 Patents.

12.2 Enforcement within the Vascular Non-Robotic Field, the Endoluminal Non-Robotic Field or the Orthopedics Field. With respect to any infringement (or allegation of infringement) of any of the Licensed Xxxx Patents or the Xxxxxx Group 2 Patents within the Vascular Non-Robotic Field, the Endoluminal Non-Robotic Field or the Orthopedics Field (such infringement, “Exclusive License Infringement”), [***] shall have the [***] to institute enforcement actions against any person or entity engaged in perceived Exclusive License Infringement at its own cost and expense. [***] shall keep [***] reasonably informed with respect to the status of any such enforcement action. Recoveries related to Exclusive License Infringement shall be as set forth in Section 12.7. With respect to any infringement (or allegation of infringement) of any of the Licensed Xxxx Patents or the Xxxxxx Group 2 Patents other than Exclusive License Infringement or any other Licensed Xxxxxx IP (including without limitation the Xxxxxx Group 3 Patents), as between Xxxxxx and Philips, Xxxxxx shall have the [***] to institute enforcement actions against any person or entity engaged in such infringement, in each case at its own cost and expense. [***] shall retain all recoveries related thereto. [***] shall keep [***] reasonably informed with respect to the status of any such enforcement action.

If any litigation or proceedings before a patent office involves a challenge to the validity or enforceability of any of the Xxxxxx Group 2 Patents or Licensed Xxxx Patents, Xxxxxx shall consult with Philips and provide a reasonable opportunity for Philips to comment on the strategy for the defense of any invalidity or unenforceability claim, provided that [***], Xxxxxx and Philips will cooperate so as not to [***], and in no event will [***] be required to disclose information that would result in [***]. Xxxxxx will actively consult Philips and will give due consideration [***] to the arguments and advice provided by Philips regarding the defense of any [***] claim by a Third Party regarding any of the Xxxxxx Group 2 Patents or Licensed Xxxx Patents.

12.3 Enforcement of Purchased Xxxxxx Patents. With respect to any infringement (or allegation of infringement) of (a) any divisional or continuation application of U.S. Patent Application No. [***] (together with any renewal, division, continuation, continued prosecution application or continuation-in-part of any of such patents, certificates and

applications, any and all patents or certificates of invention issuing thereon, and any and all reissues, reexaminations, extensions, divisions, provisional filings, parent applications, renewals, substitutions, confirmations, registrations and revalidations of or to any of the foregoing, and any foreign counterparts of any of the foregoing (collectively, “Patent Family”)) [***], and (b) U.S. Patent Application No. [***] (together with any of its Patent Family) and U.S. Patent Application No. [***] (together with any of its Patent Family), in the [***] (such infringement, “Grantback License Infringement”), Xxxxxx shall have the first right (but not the obligation) to institute enforcement actions against any person or entity engaged in perceived Grantback License Infringement at its own cost and expense, and Xxxxxx shall retain all recoveries related thereto. Xxxxxx shall have the same right, but not the obligation, to enforce U.S. Patent Application No. [***] (together with any of its Patent Family) and U.S. Patent Application No. [***] (together with any of its Patent Family) [***]. If any litigation involves a challenge to the validity or enforceability of the foregoing patents, [***] shall consult [***] and provide a [***] to comment on the strategy for the defense of any invalidity or unenforceability claim, provided that [***], Xxxxxx and Philips will cooperate so as not to [***], and in no event will [***] be required to disclose information that would result in a [***]. Xxxxxx will actively consult Philips and will give due consideration [***] to the arguments and advice provided by Philips regarding the defense of any [***] claim.

12.4 If Xxxxxx does not bring an action to prevent or xxxxx the Grantback License Infringement within [***] after notification thereof, then Philips shall have the right (but not the obligation) to institute an enforcement action against any person or entity engaged in perceived Grantback License Infringement at its own cost and expense.

12.5 Cooperation. The Party instituting an enforcement action pursuant to Section 12.2 or Section 12.3 (“Enforcing Party”) shall keep the other Party (“Non-Enforcing Party”) reasonably apprised of all developments in such enforcement actions and shall consult with the Non-Enforcing Party regarding such enforcement activities. The Non-Enforcing Party shall, at the Enforcing Party’s cost and expense, reasonably cooperate with the Enforcing Party and provide all reasonable assistance in connection with any such litigation, including without limitation agreeing to be named as a party or in the case of Xxxxxx, causing Xxxx to be named to such action or having such action brought in the Non-Enforcing Party’s name by the Enforcing Party if and to the extent required for the Enforcing Party to have the legal right to initiate such an enforcement action.

12.6 Settlement. The Enforcing Party shall have the right to settle the dispute provided, however, no settlement, consent judgment or other voluntary final disposition of the action that involves an admission of the Non-Enforcing Party’s liability or wrongdoing, requires the Non-Enforcing Party to take or refrain from taking any action or incur any payment obligations or other liabilities or otherwise binds the Non-Enforcing Party or that involves an admission of the invalidity or unenforceability of the Licensed Xxxxxx IP or Licensed Xxxx IP or other IP of the Non-Enforcing Party or that could reasonably be likely to restrict the Non-Enforcing Party from conducting its business, may be entered into without the express written consent of the Non-Enforcing Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. To the

[***] CONFIDENTIAL PORTIONS OF THIS DOCUMENT REDACTED AND

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED		EXECUTION COPY

extent Xxxxxx incurs any indemnification liability under Section 5.2(e) of the Xxxxxx-Xxxx Agreement on account of any Philips enforcement action hereunder, Philips shall indemnify and hold harmless Xxxxxx with respect thereto.

12.7 Allocation of Proceeds. Recoveries from enforcement actions brought under Section 12.2 for Exclusive License Infringement shall be allocated first to the reimbursement of any costs and expenses incurred by Philips to the extent not previously reimbursed, and then to the reimbursement of any costs and expenses incurred by Xxxxxx, and then with respect to any remaining amounts [***].

13.	Term and Termination:

13.1 Term. This Agreement shall be effective as of the Closing Date, and shall remain in force until the expiration date of the last to expire Licensed Patent (the “Term”), unless terminated earlier pursuant to Section 13.2.

13.2 Termination.

13.2.1 Unless agreed to otherwise in writing in advance by the Parties, the termination of the SPE-Philips Agreement by a party to such agreement for a particular reason shall automatically and without any action required by the Parties terminate this Agreement as if for the same reason and any elections made with respect to termination by the terminating party under the SPE-Philips Agreement shall be deemed elections made with respect to termination of this Agreement, mutatis mutandis and with references to SPE interpreted as references to Xxxxxx. By way of non-limiting example, if Philips terminates the SPE-Philips Agreement pursuant to Section 9.2.1 of the SPE-Philips Agreement and makes the election specified in Section 9.2.2(ii)(1) of the SPE-Philips Agreement, Philips shall be deemed to have terminated this Agreement pursuant to Section 13.2.1 and to have made the election specified in Section 13.2.2(ii)(1). Without limiting the foregoing, this Agreement (and with respect to Section 13.2.1(iii), any part of this Agreement relating to the subject matter acquired by the non-practicing entity) may be terminated:

(i) by a Party in the event of a material breach of the Agreement by the other Party which has not been cured within 90 days of notice by the non-breaching Party.

(ii) by Philips, in the event Xxxxxx merges with, is purchased by, or is otherwise acquired by a competitor of the relevant business in Philips or if a majority of the Xxxxxx shares are acquired by a competitor of the relevant business in Philips.

(iii) by Philips, in the event Xxxxxx or the Licensed Xxxxxx IP is purchased or otherwise acquired by a non-practicing entity (e.g., a company that acquires patent rights solely for purposes of enforcing rights, and not for making using or selling any products or services). If Philips chooses not to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 13.2.1(iii), Article 12 shall not apply to the non-practicing entity, but rather Philips shall

[***] CONFIDENTIAL PORTIONS OF THIS DOCUMENT REDACTED AND

SEPARATELY FILED WITH THE COMMISSION.


CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED		EXECUTION COPY

control all enforcement of the Purchased Xxxxxx Patents and the Xxxxxx Group 2 Patents in all respects, and shall keep all recovery from any such enforcement.

Such rights of termination shall not be exclusive of any other surviving provisions, remedy or means of redress to which the non-defaulting Party may be lawfully entitled and all such remedies shall be cumulative.

13.2.2 In addition, the following shall apply:

(i) Termination of this Agreement by Xxxxxx for any reason other than failure of Philips to make the full payments pursuant to Section 3.2 of this Agreement and Section 3.1 of the SPE-Philips Agreement shall not result in the termination of any of the licenses granted hereunder or reversal of any of the ownership transfers effectuated hereunder, but shall entitle Xxxxxx to bring a claim for money damages arising from Philips’ uncured material breach.

(ii) In case of termination of this Agreement by Philips, Philips shall have the right to elect by written notice either (1) to terminate all licenses granted by the Parties to each other hereunder, effective from the termination date, and to return all purchased Intellectual Property, Technology, items and licensed rights and materials hereunder to Xxxxxx (and such licenses shall terminate and Philips shall comply with its obligations to return the foregoing), with reservation of the right to claim damages arising from the uncured material breach or (2) to maintain all such licenses and transfers of ownership interests in full force and effect subject to the payment obligations in Section 3.3 and Section 3.5, but with reservation of its right to damages arising from the uncured material breach.

(iii) Termination shall not release either Party from any payment or other obligation that has accrued as of the effective date of the termination. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Party shall pay the other, within thirty (30) days after such termination, amounts equal to all reimbursable expenses, patent royalties, milestone payments and other payments of whatever nature which are then owed to such Party hereunder.

(iv) Upon termination of this Agreement by Philips pursuant to Section 13.2.1, if Philips makes the election specified in 13.2.2(ii)(1): (1) all licenses granted by Xxxxxx to Philips pursuant to Section 2 shall automatically terminate (2) Philips may, if it deems appropriate as contributing to the mitigation of damages, promptly prepare, execute, deliver, transfer and assign to Xxxxxx all regulatory filings and marketing authorizations covering FOSSL Systems (and related Products) for the Licensed Fields, including any rights of reference necessary or appropriate in connection therewith; (3) Philips may, if it deems appropriate as contributing to the mitigation of damages, transfer to Xxxxxx all data, materials, results and other information generated by or for Philips in support of regulatory approval for FOSSL Systems (and related Products) for the Licensed Fields prior to the date of such termination; (4) Philips shall cease using and, within thirty (30) days after termination, return (and cause its Affiliates and its and their licensees and sublicensees to cease using and to return) to Xxxxxx all Xxxxxx Confidential Information


CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED		EXECUTION COPY

provided to Philips by Xxxxxx pursuant to this Agreement and marked as such; (5) Philips may, if it deems appropriate as contributing to the mitigation of damages, grant to Xxxxxx a nonexclusive, irrevocable, perpetual license (with the right to sublicense through one or multiple tiers) to any and all FOSSL Technology (and any IP therein or thereto) owned or controlled by Philips as of the effective date of such termination and developed, made, created, conceived, reduced to practice (in whole or in part) by or for Philips or its Affiliates or its or their licensees or sublicensees in connection with the exercise of the licenses granted to Philips and its Affiliates hereunder; (6) without limiting the license granted by Philips under Section 2.2.2, Philips may, if it deems appropriate as contributing to the mitigation of damages, grant to Xxxxxx a nonexclusive, irrevocable, perpetual license (with the right to sublicense through one or multiple tiers) under the Purchased Xxxxxx Patents in the Vascular Non-Robotic Field, the Endoluminal Non-Robotic Field, the Non-Robotic Medical Devices Field (including the Colonoscopy Non-Robotic Field), and the Orthopedics Field; and (7) Philips automatically shall be deemed to have assigned to Xxxxxx all Naked Licenses and Naked Sublicenses (or other sublicenses of FOSSL IP hereunder) existing as of the effective date of termination unless Xxxxxx declines such assignment within thirty (30) days of termination.

(v) Without limiting the foregoing, upon termination by Philips pursuant to Section 13.2.1(ii), the following provisions will terminate immediately upon payment by Philips to Xxxxxx or its acquirer of USD one million ($1,000,000): Section 3.3 (Product Payments, reporting requirements, and certain sections related thereto, e.g., 3.4, 3.6, 3.14 and 3.15); and any Naked Sublicenses (under Section 3.5) granted after the transaction contemplated by Section 13.2.1(ii). For the avoidance of doubt, all Naked Sublicenses existing prior to the transaction contemplated in Section 13.2.1(ii), shall remain in force.

13.2.3 Certain Effects for Termination by Xxxxxx. Upon termination of this Agreement by Xxxxxx pursuant to Section 13.2 for failure of Philips to make the full payments mentioned in Section 3.2 of this Agreement and Section 3.1 of the SPE-Philips Agreement (i) Philips acknowledges that no licenses shall have been granted by Xxxxxx pursuant to Section 2; (ii) Philips shall assign (and hereby assigns, effective as of the effective date of such termination) to Xxxxxx the Purchased Xxxxxx Patents, and Philips shall transfer all files relating to the prosecution and maintenance of the Purchased Xxxxxx Patents to Xxxxxx; and (iii) Philips shall cease using and, within thirty (30) days after termination, return (and cause its Affiliates and its and their licensees and sublicensees to cease using and to return) to Xxxxxx all Xxxxxx Confidential Information marked as such, provided to Philips by Xxxxxx pursuant to this Agreement.

13.3 Survival. Provided the Closing has occurred,

13.3.1 The following Sections shall survive the termination or the expiration of this Agreement for any reason and in all circumstances: 2.2.2 (except for Philips’ retained right to research, develop, make, have made, use, have used, import, sell, have sold and otherwise commercialize and exploit Products in each case solely within SDOF Medical Robotics Field), 2.6, 2.7, 3.7, 3.9, 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, 3.13, 4, 10.6, 11, and 13 through 21.


CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED		EXECUTION COPY

13.3.2 In addition to the Sections set forth in Section 13.3.1, the following Sections shall survive the termination of this Agreement (a) in the event of termination of this Agreement by Xxxxxx for any other cause than failure of Philips to make the full payment mentioned in Section 3.2 or payments due under Section 3.3 and Section 3.5 or (b) in the event of termination of this Agreement by Philips and if Philips makes the election specified in Section 13.2.2(ii)(1): 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.8, 3.14, 3.15, 5, 6, 8, 9 and 12. Further, if the licenses granted by Xxxxxx to Philips expressly survive termination of this Agreement as provided for above, then, for the avoidance of doubt, Sections 2.3, 2.4 and 2.5 shall also survive together with such rights and licenses.

14. Bankruptcy: Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Parties hereto acknowledge and agree that all rights, privileges, releases, non-assertions, immunities and licenses granted under or pursuant to this Agreement by Xxxxxx to Philips and its Affiliates are, and are intended to be, and shall be deemed to be, for purposes of Section 365(n) of title 11 of the United States Code, (as may be amended from time to time, “the Bankruptcy Code”), licenses of rights to intellectual property (including without limitation “intellectual property” as defined under Section 101(35A) of the Bankruptcy Code) and: (a) all reports, drawings, samples, prototypes and other books and records and embodiments of the intellectual property shall be deemed “embodiments” of the intellectual property protected by Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code hereunder; and (b) any escrow agreements established pursuant to this agreement shall be an “agreement supplementary” to this Agreement for the purposes of Section 365(n) of the Bankruptcy Code. All of the rights of Philips and its Affiliates under this Agreement shall be deemed to exist immediately before the occurrence of any bankruptcy proceeding in which Xxxxxx is a debtor. The Parties hereto acknowledge and agree that Philips and its Affiliates, as licensees of such rights under this Agreement, shall retain and may fully exercise all of their rights and elections under the Bankruptcy Code or equivalent law, statute, treaty or legislation in any other jurisdiction including, but not limited to, those rights and remedies under Section 365(n) of the Bankruptcy Code. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Xxxxxx further agrees that, in the event that any proceeding shall be instituted by or against Xxxxxx seeking to adjudicate it as bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking liquidation, winding up, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, protection, relief or composition of Xxxxxx or its debts under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, or reorganization or relief of debtors, or seeking an entry of an order for relief or the appointment of a receiver, trustee or other similar official for Xxxxxx or any substantial part of its property or if Xxxxxx shall take any action to authorize any of the foregoing actions (collectively, an “Insolvency Proceeding”), Philips and its Affiliates shall retain all rights, licenses, privileges, releases, non-assertions and immunities granted under or pursuant to this Agreement and their rights to enforce these rights under this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, to the maximum extent permitted by law, Philips and its Affiliates shall not be affected by the rejection of this Agreement in any such Insolvency Proceeding (a “Rejection”) and Philips and its Affiliates shall retain all rights and remedies as provided under Section 365(n) of the Bankruptcy Code. Upon any Rejection, Xxxxxx and/or any trustee shall be required to turn over the intellectual property subject to this Agreement to Philips upon written request made by Philips to Xxxxxx and/or the trustee. Philips shall under no circumstances be required to terminate this Agreement after a Rejection in order to enjoy or acquire any of its rights under this Agreement; provided, however, upon any such Rejection Philips shall have the automatic right to terminate this Agreement. In the event that this Agreement is subject to a Rejection any continuing payments required by Philips hereunder shall


CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED		EXECUTION COPY

be equitably adjusted to reflect the loss of any services or other rights of Phillips and its Affiliates or obligations of Xxxxxx or its Affiliates that are terminated as a result of any such Rejection. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that Xxxxxx files for relief or protection under the Bankruptcy Code, or there is otherwise an Insolvency Proceeding by or against Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx acknowledges and agrees that each and all of the rights, licenses, privileges, non-assertions and immunities granted to Philips under this Agreement are not assumable by Xxxxxx (or a trustee) and are not assignable to a Third Party. Upon any such Insolvency Proceeding by or against Xxxxxx, Philips shall be deemed to have made a request for enforcement of all of its rights and licenses pursuant to Section 365(n)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code, without further action by Philips.

15.	Confidentiality.

15.1 Definition. “Confidential Information” shall mean all non-public written, visual, oral and electronic data and information disclosed by one Party (“Discloser”) to the other Party (“Recipient”) under this Agreement that relates to the Discloser’s business, technology, products, processes, techniques, research, development and marketing and is marked as confidential or proprietary or disclosed under circumstances reasonably indicating that it is confidential or proprietary. All FOSSL IP (that has not otherwise been publicly disclosed or made available, such as described in Section 15.3 below) shall be Confidential Information of Xxxxxx and Xxxxxx shall be the Discloser (and Philips the Recipient) thereof. All Confidential Information (including without limitation all copies, extracts and portions thereof) shall remain the property of Discloser. Except as expressly agreed otherwise by the Parties, Recipient does not acquire any intellectual property rights under any disclosure hereunder except the limited right to use such Confidential Information in accordance with this Agreement.

15.2 Restrictions. Recipient shall hold all Confidential Information of Discloser in strict confidence and shall not disclose any such Confidential Information to any Third Party except as expressly provided in this Section 15.2. Recipient may disclose the Confidential Information of Discloser only to regulatory authorities and employees, agents, contractors, Affiliates and actual and potential licensees and sublicensees (solely to the extent, in the case of any such licensee or sublicensee, such Confidential Information to be disclosed is licenseable or sublicenseable to such licensee or sublicensee), in all such cases who have a reason to know such information for purposes of Recipient’s performance of its obligations or exercise of its rights under this Agreement and (except with respect to regulatory authorities) who are bound in writing by restrictions regarding disclosure and use at least as protective of Discloser as the terms and conditions in this Agreement. Recipient shall not use any Confidential Information of Discloser for the benefit of itself or any third party or for any purpose other than to perform its obligations and exercise its rights under this Agreement. Recipient shall take at least the same degree of care that it uses to protect its own confidential and proprietary information and materials of similar nature and importance (but in no event less than reasonable care) to protect the confidentiality and avoid the unauthorized use, disclosure, publication, or dissemination of the Confidential Information of Discloser.

15.3 Scope. The foregoing restrictions on disclosure and use shall not apply with respect to any Confidential Information of Discloser to the extent such Confidential Information: (a) was or becomes publicly known through no wrongful act or omission of the Recipient or its


CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED		EXECUTION COPY

Affiliates and their respective employees, agents and representatives; (b) was rightfully known by Recipient before receipt from Discloser; (c) becomes rightfully known to Recipient from a source other than Discloser without breach of a duty of confidentiality to Discloser or its Affiliates; or (d) is independently developed by Recipient without the use of or access to the Confidential Information of Discloser. In addition, Recipient may use or disclose Confidential Information of Discloser to the extent (i) approved by Discloser in writing or (ii) Recipient is legally compelled to disclose such Confidential Information, provided, however, that prior to any such compelled disclosure, if possible, Recipient shall give Discloser reasonable advance notice of any such disclosure and shall cooperate with Discloser, at Discloser’s cost, in protecting against any such disclosure and/or obtaining a protective order narrowing the scope of such disclosure and/or use of such Confidential Information.

15.4 Terms of this Agreement. The Parties acknowledge the confidential nature of this Agreement and, except to the extent provided in Section 15.5 and Section 15.6, neither Party shall disclose the existence or the contents of this Agreement without obtaining the prior approval of the other Party in writing, save as required by applicable law (including as required by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission) or by either Party in connection with the enforcement of its rights hereunder or on a confidential basis to actual and potential investors or acquirors and legal counsel who are bound by obligations of confidentiality at least as restrictive as those set forth in this Agreement. Any breach by either Party of any of its confidentiality obligations under this Article 15 shall not affect any right or remedy to which the non-breaching Party would be entitled at law absent this Agreement.

15.5 Press Releases. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, Philips and Xxxxxx may, with prior written consent of the other Party, issue press releases acknowledging that Philips and Philips Affiliates are licensed under the Licensed Patents, provided that the terms of this Agreement are not disclosed. Each Party agrees to the issuance of the proposed press release attached as Exhibit A. Each Party may disclose any information in such press release (or any subsequent mutually agreed press release or other public announcement) without the additional consent of the other Party.

15.6 Disclosures of Terms to Certain Third Parties. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 15.6, Philips shall be entitled to disclose the existence of this Agreement and the amount of the payment to be made to any Third Party with which Philips has an agreement, arrangement, understanding, or relationship which permits Philips or the Third Party to seek payment or reimbursement, in whole or in part, of any portion of any of the payments to be made. Before disclosing any information related to this Agreement to such a Third Party, including but not limited to Philips customers and suppliers meeting the foregoing description, Philips shall obtain agreement from the Third Party that the disclosure shall be on a confidential basis and that the disclosed information shall not be provided to anyone outside of the Third Party, other than its outside legal counsel.

15.7 Limitation of Liability. Except for a breach of Article 15 (Confidentiality), neither Party shall be liable to the other Party, its employees, directors, shareholders, agents for any indirect or consequential, incidental, punitive or special, damages (including but not limited to damages for business interruption or for personal injury) arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, even if the other Party has been advised of the possibility of such damages. To


CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED		EXECUTION COPY

the extent either Party is liable to the other Party for any claims arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, such liability shall be limited to the greater of (a) the amounts owed or paid by Philips pursuant to Sections 3.2, 3.3, and 3.5 and (b) USD 25 Million.

Press Release

Xxxxxx Medical and Philips Enter Agreements for the Development of Non-Robotic

Applications of Fiber Optic Shape Sensing and Localization Technology

Xxxxxx to Receive $29 Million Upfront and up to $78 Million in Future Payments

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. – February 3, 2011 – Xxxxxx Medical, Inc. (Nasdaq: HNSN), a global leader in flexible robotics and the developer of robotic technology for accurate 3D control of catheter movement, today announced that it has entered, directly and through a wholly owned subsidiary, into patent and technology license, sublicense and purchase agreements with Philips to allow them to develop and commercialize the non-robotic applications of Xxxxxx Medical’s Fiber Optic Shape Sensing and Localization (FOSSL) technology.

FOSSL is a potentially disruptive visualization technology that employs a fiber optic sensor designed to allow physicians to identify both the shape and position of catheters and other tools used in minimally invasive procedures. FOSSL has the potential to enable more efficient and precise control and continuous tracking of flexible tools used in these procedures. Unlike traditional visualization methods, FOSSL is designed to provide visual information in 3D with significant reduction in the use of x-ray. FOSSL is being developed by Xxxxxx Medical and Xxxx Innovations, Inc. which are jointly advancing its use in medical applications.

Under the terms of the agreements, Philips has the exclusive right to develop and commercialize the FOSSL technology in the non-robotic vascular, endoluminal and orthopedic fields. In addition, the parties have amended their previous joint development agreement to allow for Philips to potentially extend and increase certain fees to be paid by Xxxxxx Medical based on the future sales of the currently investigational flexible catheter vascular robotic system now under development at Xxxxxx Medical with


CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED		EXECUTION COPY

planned commercialization in the US and Europe in 2011. Xxxxxx Medical will receive upfront payments of $29 million in connection with these arrangements and will be eligible to receive up to an additional $78 million in future payments associated with the successful commercialization or licensing by Philips or its collaborators of products containing FOSSL technology.

“Today’s announcement is an important milestone in the history of Xxxxxx Medical,” said Xxxxx Xxxxxxx, President and CEO of Xxxxxx Medical. “As a result of the hard work by our talented employees, we have made tremendous strides evolving our business strategy and focusing on new market opportunities to create a proprietary mode of safe and effective imaging. We are pleased to expand our relationship with Philips, and are now in a position to further develop and commercialize this technology which has the potential to improve clinical outcomes for future medical products, including to significantly reduce the amount of harmful radiation generated in interventional procedures, all to the benefit of patients, physicians and hospital staffs. Finally, these agreements allow us to significantly enhance our cash position and strengthen our balance sheet without incurring a dilutive event for our shareholders.”

“These agreements represent a considerable step forward in the relationship between Xxxxxx Medical and Philips Healthcare in bringing innovative technology solutions to patients and physicians in multiple medical fields from orthopedics to interventional procedures. We are delighted to be moving forward with Philips on both the application of the FOSSL technology outside of robotics and on the advancement of our robotics technology for vascular procedures,” said Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxxx, M.D. Vice President of Marketing and Business Development at Xxxxxx Medical.

While minimally invasive procedures have advanced significantly in the past 30 years, their potential is still limited by imaging and localization, which remain critical elements to knowing where flexible tools are in the body. Since the incision is so much smaller than typical open surgery and direct visualization is not possible, physicians have to rely on X-ray imaging or localization to know where their instruments are and the shape of the instruments they are manipulating. Significant radiation exposure to the patient and physician is often the result, and


CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED		EXECUTION COPY

usually provides only two dimensional information. With FOSSL enabled devices, the potential benefits to patients and the physicians that treat them are substantial, including increased efficiency, control and reduced use of radiation in minimally invasive procedures.

About Xxxxxx Medical, Inc.

Xxxxxx Medical, Inc., based in Mountain View, California, develops products and technology using robotics for the accurate positioning, manipulation and control of catheters and catheter-based technologies. The company’s Sensei® system and its Sensei X Robotic Catheter System were cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for manipulation and control of certain mapping catheters in electrophysiology (EP) procedures. This robotic catheter system is compatible with fluoroscopy, ultrasound, 3D surface map and patient electrocardiogram data. In the United States, the Sensei System is not approved for use in guiding ablation procedures; this use remains experimental. The U.S. product labeling therefore provides that the safety and effectiveness of the Sensei and Sensei X systems for use with cardiac ablation catheters in the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias, including atrial fibrillation (AF), have not been established during EP procedures, such as guiding catheters in the treatment of AF. In the European Union, the Sensei and the Sensei X systems are cleared for use during EP procedures, such as guiding catheters in the treatment of AF. The flexible catheter vascular robotic system requires regulatory filings and approval and is not commercially available. Additional information can be found at xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx.
