Binding Term Sheet - Supply

Confidential

This binding term sheet (this “Binding Term Sheet”), dated as of October 15, 2014, is between Response Biomedical Corp., having its principle address at 0000-00xx Xxxxxx X., Xxxxxxxxx, X.X., Xxxxxx X0X 0X0 (“Response”), and 杭州中翰盛泰生物技术有限公司, HANGZHOU JOINSTAR BIOMEDICAL TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD, having its registered address at Floor 00, Xxxx Xxxxxxxx, #000 Xxxxxxx XX, Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, China (“JBT”) for supply by Response of raw materials for multiple Assays that will run on a New Analyzer developed by JBT. This Binding Term Sheet is intended to be a binding agreement between the parties until such time as the parties enter into Supply Agreement that more fully state the agreements between the parties with respect to the transactions described herein.

Concurrently with this Binding Term Sheet, JBT and Response are entering into a Technology Development Agreement that is intended to lay the framework of the key terms for a Collaboration Agreement (defined below) between the Parties for co-development activities related to the materials to be supplied by Response to JBT under the Supply Agreement (the “Technology Development Agreement”).

Concurrently with this Binding Term Sheet, Response is entering into a term sheet with each of HANGZHOU Joinstar Medical INSTRUMENT & REAGENT Co., Ltd. (“JMIR”) and Hangzhou Lizhu Medical Instrument & Reagent Co. (“HZLZ”) for JMIR and HZLZ to purchase Response common stock (the “Equity Purchases”).

The parties agree to use all reasonable efforts to complete negotiation and execution of the definitive Collaboration Agreement and the definitive Supply Agreement no later than three (3) months after execution of the Technology Development Agreement and this Binding Term Sheet. If the Collaboration Agreement or the Supply Agreement are not finalized and executed by the parties within such period, then Response may suspend activities under the Technology Development Agreement (and the timeline previously agreed by the parties shall be postponed accordingly). If the Collaboration Agreement or the Supply Agreement are not finalized and executed by the parties within six (6) months of execution of the Technology Development Agreement and this Binding Term Sheet, then the Technology Development Agreement and this Binding Term Sheet will terminate.

The parties agree to use all reasonable efforts to complete negotiation and execution of the definitive Equity Purchase Documents and transfer funds and close the equity purchase (“Equity Closing”) no later than three (3) months after execution of the Binding Term Sheet-Equity Investment (HZLZ) and Binding Term Sheet-Equity Investment (JMIR). If the Equity Closing has not occurred within such period, then Response may suspend activities under Technology Development Agreement (and the timeline previously agreed by the parties shall be postponed accordingly). If the Equity Closing has not occurred within six (6) months of execution of the Binding Term Sheet-Equity Investment (HZLZ) and Binding Term Sheet-Equity Investment (JMIR), then the Technology Development Agreement and this Binding Term Sheet, the Binding Term Sheet-Equity Investment (HZLZ) and the Binding Term Sheet-Equity Investment (JMIR), the definitive Collaboration Agreement (if executed) and the definitive Supply Agreement (if executed) will terminate; alternatively, if the Equity Closing cannot be accomplished within such period then the parties will meet to re-negotiate the financial terms of this Binding Term Sheet, the Technology Development Agreement, the definitive Collaboration Agreement (if executed) and the definitive Supply Agreement (if executed).
