products and accessories.
B. LaserSight desires to engage BD as a distributor of the Products (as
herein defined) to customers in the Territory (as herein defined) on the terms
and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the recitals and mutual promises
and covenants contained in this Agreement, the parties agree as follows:
1. Definition of BD. For purposes of this Agreement, BD shall mean and
include Becton, Xxxxxxxxx and Company and its affiliates, including but
not limited to all corporations, partnerships, sole proprietorships and
other forms of business organizations which are controlled by Becton
Xxxxxxxxx and Company, any corporation in which Becton, Xxxxxxxxx and
Company owns at least 50 percent of the stock entitled to vote for
directors, and any corporation, firm, partnership, proprietorship or
other form of business in which Becton, Xxxxxxxxx and Company has the
maximum amount of ownership permitted by local law.
2. Engagement of BD. LaserSight hereby engages BD as a distributor of
the products and accessories described on Exhibit A attached hereto
(collectively, the "Products") in the territory described on Exhibit B
attached hereto (the "Territory") during the Term (as defined herein),
and BD hereby accepts such appointment. In accordance with the terms of
this Agreement, LaserSight hereby grants to BD the right to promote,
market, distribute and sell the Products within the Territory. Except
as described in Section 3(a) below, BD agrees not to promote, market,
distribute or sell the Products outside the Territory without
LaserSight's prior written consent, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld. Except as may be specifically provided for
herein, BD will not be an agent of LaserSight and will have no
authority to contract for, or act on behalf of, LaserSight.
3. Agreements Regarding Distribution and Sale of Products.
(a) During the Term BD shall have the exclusive right to
distribute the Products in the Territory, provided that BD agrees not
to solicit or take orders for TLC The Laser Center Inc. ("TLC") and its
affiliated corporate centers as listed on Exhibit C (the "Direct
Account") and BD acknowledges that LaserSight may sell Products to the
Direct Account. The parties acknowledge and agree that Exhibit C may be
amended from time by either party providing notice to the other that

kit of instruments and supplies to be utilized in connection with
refractive surgery that includes any of the Products (a "Kit"), then
nothing in this Agreement shall restrict BD from marketing the Kit to
any account, including, but not limited to the Direct Account and
accounts outside the Territory.
(b) If either party desires to distribute, market or sell a
New Product (as defined herein) then prior to taking any such action
the party desiring to take such action shall notify the other party and
for a period of 30 days after the date of such notice the parties agree
to explore possibilities for the parties to jointly develop and market
the New Product. If the parties agree to jointly pursue the development
and marketing of the New Product then the parties shall agree to an
amendment to this Agreement that will include such New Product as a
"Product". If at the conclusion of such 30 day period the parties are
unable to agree on terms for jointly developing and marketing the New
Product, then for the next 15 days the parties shall attempt to agree
on the terms for excluding such New Product from the terms of this
Agreement. If at the conclusion of such 15 day period the parties are
unable to agree on the terms of such exclusion, then either party may
terminate this Agreement by providing at least 180 days advance written
notice of such termination.
For purposes of this Section 2(b) "New Product" shall mean products
related to refractive surgery, including enhanced Products and products
that compete with the Products. The term New Products shall not include
laser systems, laser related capital products and products in that BD
product catalog that is most current as of the Effective Date (a copy
of which shall be promptly provided to LaserSight).
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this
Agreement shall limit or preclude LaserSight from (i) marketing,
displaying or selling the Products at any trade show or exhibition or
in connection with marketing and selling its excimer laser, as long as
LaserSight complies with the terms of Section 5(e) in connection with
such sales, or (ii) receiving and filling sales orders directly from
the Direct Account.
4. Term and Renewal. The term of this Agreement (the "Term") and BD's
engagement hereunder, shall begin on the Effective Date and shall
continue for the five year period immediately following the Purchase
Minimum Commencement Date (as defined in Section 7(a)), unless sooner
terminated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
5. Pricing of the Products; Orders and Delivery.
(a) LaserSight and BD have agreed to the per unit transfer
price (the "Transfer Price") for each of the Products and standard
payment terms (the "Payment Terms") for each of the Products all as set
forth on Exhibit D attached hereto. After consultation with LaserSight,
from time to time BD will establish a per unit purchase price (the
"Purchase Price") that BD will utilize for marketing and selling the
Products to end users.
2
(b) The Transfer Price may be amended by LaserSight providing
at least 90 days advance written notice to BD. Prior to LaserSight
amending the Transfer Price LaserSight agrees to consult with BD.
(c) In addition, the Transfer Price for those Products that
are keratome blades may be amended by BD pursuant to this Section 4(c)
if market conditions require BD to lower the Purchase Price for such
keratome blades in order for such products to be competitively priced.
The reductions in Transfer Price contemplated by this Section 4(c)
shall be implemented by BD providing LaserSight with written notice of
such reduction and such reduction becoming effective as of the first
day of the calendar quarter immediately following the date of such
notice. The reductions in Transfer Price contemplated by this Section
4(c) may only be implemented once per calendar quarter. In no event
will this Section 4(c) allow BD unilaterally to reduce the Transfer
Price for those Products that are keratome blades by an aggregate
amount in excess of 10% of the Transfer Price for such Products that is
set forth on Exhibit D as of the Effective Date.
(d) As provided for herein each of BD and LaserSight will
solicit orders for the Products. With respect to end users ordering the
UltraShaper(TM) durable keratome or the keratome console and orders
from the Direct Account LaserSight shall ship the applicable Products
directly to such parties. With respect to all other orders, BD shall
ship the applicable Products to the end users. On a quarterly basis, or
more frequently if reasonably requested by LaserSight, BD will provide
LaserSight with a list of customers that have purchased Products since
the date of the last report. Such list shall contain a description of
the type and volume of Products purchased. In addition, LaserSight
shall ship Products to BD in order to allow BD to fill orders from
international end users and create the Kits. With respect to end users
outside of the United States and end users that purchase the Kits BD
shall ship the applicable Products to such parties. LaserSight and BD,
as applicable, shall use its reasonable best efforts to ship the
Product or Products within 10 days after such party's receipt of all
required documentation with respect to an order. Upon shipping Products
LaserSight shall invoice BD for the Products shipped (the "LaserSight
Invoice"). The LaserSight Invoice shall require BD to pay LaserSight
the Transfer Price for all Products shipped and such payment will be
made in accordance with the Payment Terms.
If the parties determine that the Product handling processes
contemplated by this Section 5(d) are creating end user
dissatisfaction, then the parties will discuss an alternative Product
handling process in order to resolve such dissatisfaction.
(e) If LaserSight receives orders for Products from parties
other than the Direct Account, then LaserSight shall forward such
orders to BD.

Anti-Boycott laws.
7. BD's Duties and Restrictions.
(a) Beginning on the Purchase Minimum Commencement Date (as
defined herein) and continuing during the two years of the Term
immediately thereafter, BD agrees to buy, on an annual basis, at least

attached hereto (the "Purchase Minimums"). The parties acknowledge that
the product mix contained on Exhibit E is for planning purposes and
does not indicate required purchase minimums for any of the Products.
For purposes hereof the term "Purchase Minimum Commencement Date" shall
4

number of Products available for commercial shipment; such Products are
performing in a manner consistent with the specifications established
by LaserSight; and LaserSight has supplied BD with clinical validations

For purposes of determining whether BD has satisfied the
Purchase Minimums a Product shall be deemed purchased by BD if BD has

the Purchase Minimum Commencement Date there is not a sufficient number
of Products available for commercial shipment, such Products are not

validations from sources mutually agreeable to both parties, then the
Purchase Minimums for such Product shall cease to be applicable until
all of these conditions are again satisfied. Any time period during
which any of these conditions are not met shall not be applicable to
determining whether Purchase Minimums have been satisfied; Purchase
Minimums are counted only against those 12 month periods, whether or
not consecutive, when each of these conditions is satisfied.
During the second year of the Term LaserSight and BD shall
attempt to agree on purchase minimums for the third, fourth and fifth
years of this Agreement (the "Final Minimums"). If the parties are
unable to agree on the Final Minimums at least 90 days prior to the
third anniversary of the Effective Date then this Agreement will
terminate as of the date that is the third anniversary of the Effective
Date.
(b) BD shall notify all parties that purchase Products from BD
that the Products may not be resold outside of the Territory. If BD
becomes aware that a party is reselling the Products outside of the
Territory, BD shall immediately notify LaserSight and immediately cease
soliciting orders for the Products from such party.
(c) LaserSight's obligations with respect to the Products are
strictly limited to LaserSight's standard written warranty (copies of
which will be promptly provided in a form reasonably acceptable to BD)
included with the Products from time to time, and BD shall not make any
representation, warranty or guaranty purporting to bind LaserSight,
except as set forth in such standard written warranty, if any.

market for the Products in an attempt to obtain as large a sales volume

incurred by BD with respect to any Claim, provided that BD notifies
LaserSight in writing of the Claim within 10 business days after

LaserSight shall not be responsible for defending BD from any Claim
brought against BD relating to Products sold after the date of such
notice.
(e) During the Term, BD hereby agrees to allow LaserSight the
use of copyrighted promotional material and the trademarks and trade
names owned by BD reasonably necessary in promoting and selling the

other party has invoked this Section to excuse its performance for a continuous
period of at least 30 days. Suspension of a party's performance for such cause
as described herein shall not affect the running of the term of this Agreement.
In the event of a shortage of supply of any of the Products the Purchase

expressly reserves the right without liability to BD to determine the proportion
of the available supply thereof to be allocated to any of its distributors and
