Amount of Net Sales on which royalties are paid to	Percentage of
Rosetta Genomics by Sublicensees	Sublicensee
	Royalty to
	Be paid to U.S
	Genomics
Up to and including US$[***] million	[***]%
Above US$[*] million up to and including US$[*] million	[***]%
Above US$[***] million	[***]%

(iv)

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and in consideration of the rights granted by US Genomics hereunder, Rosetta Genomics will pay US Genomics an amount equal to the following percentages of all royalties received from Sublicensees with respect to sale of Other US Genomics Patented Products by Sublicensees within the Field in the Territory in each Royalty Year:

Amount of Net Sales on which royalties are paid to	Percentage of
Rosetta Genomics by Sublicensees	Sublicensee
	Royalty to
	Be paid to U.S
	Genomics

Up to and including US$[***] million	[***]%
Above US$[*] million up to and including US$[*] million	[***]%
Above US$[*] million up to and including US$[*] million	[***]%
Above US$[***] million	[***]%

(v)

In the event Rosetta Genomics or any of its Affiliates pays royalties on Net Sales in excess of [***] percent ([***]%) in the aggregate to US Genomics and one or more Third Parties to obtain rights that are determined to be necessary, based on the advice of patent counsel to Rosetta Genomics, with respect to the sale of any Product or Service in the Field, Rosetta Genomics shall have the right to reduce the amount of royalties owing to US Genomics under Section 5.1(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) by [***] percent ([***]%) of the amount by which such aggregate royalties to US Genomics and such Third Party or Third Parties exceeds [***] percent ([***]%) of Net Sales; provided, however, that, the royalty paid to US Genomics shall not be reduced by operation of this Section 5.1(v) by more than [***] percent ([***]%) of what would otherwise be owed under Section 5.1(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv). For example, if Net Sales by Rosetta Genomics and its Affiliates under Section 5.1(i) were $[***] million, and Rosetta Genomics paid a royalty equal to [***] percent ([***]%) of Net Sales to a Third Party, then the royalty paid by Rosetta Genomics to US Genomics on the first $[***] million of Net Sales would not be reduced; the royalty paid by Rosetta Genomics to US Genomics on the second $[***] million of Net Sales would be reduced by [***] of [***] percent ([***]%) and the royalty paid by Rosetta Genomics to US Genomics on the last $[***] million of Net Sales would be reduced by [***] percent ([***]%).

(vi)

In the event that as a result of the sale by Rosetta Genomics of any Product or Service, US Genomics is required to pay royalties to any Third Party in consideration for the license of patent rights then Rosetta Genomics will reimburse US Genomics for [***] percent ([***]%) of such payment so long as such reimbursement, together with all royalties paid to US Genomics and Third Parties (including amounts reimbursed by Rosetta Genomics pursuant to this Section) by Rosetta Genomics or any of its Affiliates with respect to the sale of such Product or Service, does not exceed [***] percent ([***]%) of Net Sales in the aggregate. To the extent such reimbursement and royalties would exceed [***] percent ([***]%) of Net Sales in the aggregate, Rosetta Genomics shall instead reimburse US Genomics for [***] percent ([***]%) of such payment by US Genomics to the Third Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the amount payable by Rosetta Genomics under this Section 5.1(vi) with respect to the sale of any Product or Service exceed [***] percent ([***]%) of the Net Sales thereof.

As a first example, if the Rosetta royalty obligation to US Genomics was [***]% and Rosetta was required to pay an [***]% royalty for necessary 3^rd party rights, it would be entitled to deduct [***]% ([***]% of [***]%) from the amount owed to US Genomics. However, if US Genomics was also obligated to pay [***]% to another 3^rd party, Rosetta would reimburse [***]% ([***]% of [***]%) of this to US Genomics. Under this combined scenario, US Genomics would net [***]% of sales ([***] - [***] - [***] +[***]). Rosetta’s total royalty obligation would be [***]% ([***] + [***] - [***] + [***]).

As a second example, if the Rosetta royalty obligation to US Genomics was [***]% and Rosetta was required to pay a [***]% royalty for necessary 3^rd party rights and US Genomics was obligated to pay [***]% to another 3^rd party, US Genomics would net [***]% of sales ([***] - [***] +[***]) and Rosetta’s total royalty obligation would be [***]% ([***] + [***] + [***]).

(vii)

Royalties on Net Sales, at the rates set forth above, shall accrue as of the date of the applicable First Commercial Sale in any country and shall continue and accrue on Net Sales (a) in a country where a Valid Claim included within the US Genomics Patent Rights exists, until the later of the date of expiry of such patent in such country or the expiry of the period of twelve (12) years commencing with the date of the First Commercial Sale (b) in any other country, until the expiry of the period of twelve (12) years commencing with First Commercial Sale in such country.

(viii)

Following the expiration of the last applicable period set forth in subsection (v) above, (a) Rosetta Genomics shall have the right under this Agreement to directly and indirectly (through sublicensees or otherwise) continue to manufacture, use, market, commercialize, distribute and sell and otherwise dispose of Products and Services, throughout the world, without having to pay royalties or any other consideration to US Genomics and (b) US Genomics shall not grant any exclusive license to the US Genomics Know How to any Third Party for the Field.

(ix)	Rosetta Genomics shall have the right, at any time and in its sole discretion, to terminate its obligation to make any further payment to US Genomics under this Article 5 by paying to US Genomics the sum of [*] Dollars ($[*]) less all amounts previously paid to US Genomics hereunder.

(x)

In the event that (i) Rosetta Genomics does not commercialize either any US Genomics Based Product or any Other US Genomics Patented Product, and (ii) Rosetta Genomics commercializes a product or service for Early Detection of Lung Cancer based on microRNA markers in sputum and/or blood that is not a US Genomics Based Product or an Other US Genomics Patented Product, then Rosetta Genomics will pay US Genomics [***] percent ([***]%) of the direct cost to US Genomics of the US Genomics Platforms and reagent kits provided to Rosetta Genomics for use in the Development Program pursuant to Section 3.1(iii), such payment to be made on the first anniversary of the first commercial sale of the first such product or service.

5.2.	Sublicense Income. Rosetta Genomics will pay US Genomics [***]% of all Sublicense Income received from Sublicensees in each Calendar Quarter.

5.3.

Reports; Payment of Royalty. Commencing with the first Calendar Quarter in which royalty or other payments are due, Rosetta Genomics shall furnish to US Genomics a quarterly written report for such Calendar Quarter (the “Quarterly Report”), each showing the sales of all Products and Services subject to royalty or other payments sold by Rosetta Genomics and its Affiliates and all Sublicense Income and royalties received from Sublicensees during the reporting period and the royalties or other payments payable under this Agreement. Quarterly Reports shall be due on the sixtieth (60th) day following the close of each Calendar Quarter. Royalties and other payments shown to have accrued by each Quarterly Report, if any, shall be due and payable on the date such Quarterly Report is due. Rosetta Genomics shall keep (and shall require its Affiliates to keep) complete and accurate records in sufficient detail to enable Net Sales and the royalties and other payments payable hereunder, to be determined, reconciled and verified.

5.4.

Audits.

5.4.1

Upon the written request of US Genomics and not more than once in each Calendar Year, Rosetta Genomics shall permit an independent certified public accounting firm of recognized standing in the United States or Israel, selected by US Genomics and reasonably acceptable to Rosetta Genomics, to have access during normal business hours at times mutually convenient to the Parties and upon reasonable notice to Rosetta Genomics to such of the records of Rosetta Genomics as may be reasonably necessary to verify the accuracy of the royalty and other payment reports hereunder for any Royalty Year, for a period of up to three (3) years from the completion of such Royalty Year. The accounting firm shall report to US Genomics only the results of the work performed as contemplated by this Section 5.4.1 and the details concerning any discrepancies.

5.4.2

If such accounting firm concludes that additional royalties or other payments were owed during such Royalty Year , Rosetta Genomics shall pay the additional royalties or other payments (plus accrued interest at the LIBOR rate as in effect on the date that such payment was first due, plus [***] ([***]%) percent) within ten (10) Business Days of the date US Genomics delivers to Rosetta Genomics such accounting firm’s written report so concluding, provided however, that in the event that Rosetta Genomics shall not be in agreement with the conclusions of such report Rosetta Genomics shall provide US Genomics with a written notice to such effect within such ten (10) Business Day period and such matter shall be resolved pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.6. In the event such accounting firm concludes that Rosetta Genomics overpaid amounts during such period, US Genomics shall reimburse Rosetta Genomics the amount of such overpayment within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such accounting firm’s written report, provided however, that, in the event that US Genomics shall not be in agreement with the conclusions of such report US Genomics shall provide Rosetta Genomics with a written notice to such effect within such ten (10) Business Day period and such matter shall be resolved pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.6. The fees charged by such accounting firm shall be paid by US Genomics unless the audit (or in the case of a disagreement, the dispute resolution under Section 11.6) establishes an underpayment by Rosetta Genomics of [***] percent ([***]%) or more.

5.4.3

Each Party reviewing information under this Section 5.4 shall treat all financial information subject to review under this Section 5.4 in accordance with the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement and shall request a confidentiality agreement to the same effect from any accounting firm reviewing information under this Section 5.4.

5.5.

Payments. All payments to be made under this Agreement shall be made in United States Dollars and shall be paid by bank wire transfer or by automated clearinghouse (electronic funds transfer) in immediately available funds to such bank account designated in writing by each Party to the other from time to time. Bank charges necessary for making the bank transfer shall be incurred by the Party making the transfer.

5.6.

Payment Exchange Rate. In the case of sales outside the United States, the rate of exchange to be used in computing the amount of currency equivalent in United States dollars due any Party shall be calculated quarterly in accordance with GAAP and based on the conversion rates for buying United States dollars on the last Business Day of each Calendar Quarter published in the Wall Street Journal, Eastern edition.

5.7.

Tax Withholding. The royalties, milestones and other amounts payable by Rosetta Genomics to US Genomics pursuant to this Agreement (“Payments”) shall not be reduced on account of any taxes and are net of all such taxes. US Genomics alone shall be responsible for paying any and all taxes (other than withholding taxes or deduction of tax at source required by applicable law to be paid by Rosetta Genomics) levied on it by account of its receipt of any Payments it receives under this Agreement.

5.8.

Interest on Late Payments. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, any payment by Rosetta Genomics that is not paid on or before the date such payment is due under this Agreement shall bear interest, to the extent permitted by applicable law, at a rate per annum equal to the LIBOR rate as in effect on the date that such payment was first due, plus [***] percent ([***]%) calculated on the number of days such payment is delinquent.

5.9.

Blocked Currencies. If by law, regulations or fiscal policy of a particular country in the Territory, remittance of royalties in United States Dollars is restricted or forbidden, written notice thereof shall promptly be given to US Genomics, and payment of the royalty shall be made by the deposit thereof in local currency to the credit of US Genomics in a recognized banking institute reasonably designated by US Genomics by written notice to Rosetta Genomics. When in any country in the Territory the law or regulations prohibit both the transmittal and the deposit of royalties on sales in such country, royalty payments shall be suspended for as long as such prohibition is in effect and as soon as such prohibition ceases to be in effect, all royalties that Rosetta Genomics would have been under an obligation to transmit or deposit but for the prohibition shall forthwith be deposited or transmitted, to the extent allowable.

11.5.

Applicable Law. The Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York (USA) without reference to any rules of conflict of laws.

11.6.

Dispute Resolution. In the event of any dispute arising between the Parties in connection with this Agreement, the construction thereof, or the rights, duties or liabilities of either Party (each a “Disputed Matter”), the Disputed Matter shall be submitted to the Chief Executive Officers of the Parties for good faith resolution. In the event the Disputed Matter cannot be resolved by the good faith efforts of the Chief Executive Officers on or before thirty (30) days from the date such Disputed Matter is first presented for resolution, then such Disputed Matter shall be resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with the following procedures:

(a)

The arbitration shall be conducted by a panel of three (3) persons experienced in the diagnostics industry who are independent of both Parties. Within thirty (30) days after initiation of arbitration, each Party shall select one person to act as arbitrator and the two Party-selected arbitrators shall select a third arbitrator within thirty (30) days of their appointment. If the arbitrators selected by the Parties are unable or fail to agree upon the third arbitrator, the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The place of arbitration shall be New York, New York, and all proceedings and communications shall be in English. Except as provided for differently herein, the arbitration shall be conducted under the rules of the AAA applicable to complex business disputes.

(b)

Either Party may apply to the arbitrators for interim injunctive relief until the arbitration decision is rendered or the Disputed Matter is otherwise resolved. Either Party also may, without waiving any right or remedy under this Agreement, seek from any court having jurisdiction any injunctive or provisional relief necessary to protect the rights or property of that Party pending resolution of the Disputed Matter pursuant to this Section 11.6. The arbitrators shall have no authority to award punitive or any other type of damages not measured by a Party’s compensatory damages. Each Party shall bear its own costs and expenses and attorneys’ fees, and the Party that does not prevail in the arbitration proceeding shall pay the arbitrators’ fees and any administrative fees of arbitration.

(c)

Except to the extent necessary to confirm an award or decision or as may be required by applicable laws, neither a Party nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of an arbitration without the prior written consent of both Parties. In no event shall an arbitration be initiated after the date when commencement of a legal or equitable proceeding based on the Disputed Matter would be barred by the applicable New York statute of limitations.

(d)	The Parties agree that, in the event of a Disputed Matter involving the alleged breach of this Agreement, neither Party may terminate this Agreement until resolution of the Disputed Matter pursuant to this Section 11.6.

(e)	The Parties hereby agree that any disputed performance or suspended performance pending the resolution of a Disputed Matter that the arbitrators determine to be required to be performed by a Party must be completed within a reasonable time period following the final decision of the arbitrators.

(f)

The Parties hereby agree that any monetary payment to be made by a Party pursuant to a decision of the arbitrators shall be made in United Stales Dollars, free of any tax or other deduction. The Parties further agree that the decision of the arbitrators shall be the sole, exclusive and binding remedy between them regarding determination of Disputed Matters presented.

11.7.

Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including all exhibits hereto, contains the entire understanding of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. All express or implied agreements and understandings, either oral or written, heretofore made are expressly superseded by this Agreement. This Agreement may be amended, or any term hereof modified, only by a written instrument duly executed by all Parties hereto.

11.8.

Independent Contractors. It is expressly agreed that the Parties shall be independent contractors and that the relationship between the Parties shall not constitute a partnership, joint venture or agency. Neither Party shall have the authority to make any statements, representations or commitments of any kind, or to take any action which shall be binding on the other Party, without the prior consent of such other Party. This Agreement shall not impose any obligation on either Party except as expressly set forth herein.

11.9.

Amendment; Waiver. This Agreement may be amended, modified, superseded or canceled, and any of the terms of this Agreement may be waived, only by a written instrument executed by each Party or, in the case of waiver, by the Party or Parties waiving compliance. The delay or failure of any Party at any time or times to require performance of any provision shall in no manner affect the rights at a later time to enforce the same. The waiver by a Party hereto of any right hereunder or the failure to perform or of a breach by another Party shall not be deemed a waiver of any other right hereunder or of any other breach or failure by said other Party whether of a similar nature or otherwise.

11.10.

Headings. The captions to the several Articles and Sections hereof are not a part of the Agreement, but are merely guides or labels to assist in locating and reading the several Articles and Sections hereof.

11.11.

Counterparts. The Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

11.12.

Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns.

11.13.

No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as set forth in Article 10, no Third Party (including, without limitation, employees of either Party) shall have or acquire any rights by reason on this Agreement.

11.14.

Further Assurances. Each of the Parties agrees to duly execute and deliver, or cause to be duly executed and delivered, such further instruments and do and cause to be done such further acts and things, including, without limitation, the filing of such additional assignments, agreements, documents and instruments, as the other Party may at any time and from time to time reasonably request in connection with this Agreement or to carry out more effectively the provisions and purposes of, or to better assure and confirm unto such other Party its rights and remedies under, this Agreement.
