**Pricing tiers for Beads apply only to the specific tier and are not retroactive for the entire volume purchased in a Calendar Year (i.e., the volume discounts will apply as volume thresholds are crossed in a Calendar Year and discounts above are not cumulative). For example, if DiaCarta purchases [***] mL of Beads in a Calendar Year and assuming the 2018 Bead price is still in effect, the first [***] mL will be priced at [***] per mL, and milliliters [***] through [***] will be priced at [***] per mL, milliliters [***] through [***] will be priced at [***] per mL, and milliliters [***] through [***] will be priced at [***] per mL. For the avoidance of doubt, in order to obtain the volume discount, Beads must be ordered and shipped within the same Calendar Year, and annual volume discounts as set forth above shall be reset on January 1 of each Calendar Year.
