PuriCore shall use commercially reasonable efforts to develop a sterile Vashe solution product in an IV-hangable, pre-filled container that has 510(k) clearance within the first Contract Year. Should such a sterile Licensed Product not be available by the end of the first Contract Year, PuriCore will solicit the technical support of Misonix to cooperate with PuriCore in pursuing the development and validation of such a sterile Licensed Product.

4.4

Samples. PuriCore will furnish Misonix with samples of Licensed Products at no charge (except that Misonix will pay all delivery costs and charges related to delivery of samples) up the following maximum amounts of samples per Contract Year:


Contract Year		Maximum Quantity of Samples
One		[* * *]% of Licensed Product units purchased
Two		[* * *]% of Licensed Product units purchased
Three		[* * *]% of Licensed Product units purchased
All Extension Periods		[* * *]% of Licensed Product units purchased

4.5

At least thirty (30) days prior to the start of each quarter of each Contract Year, Misonix will provide PuriCore with its good faith written rolling forecast of its supply requirements for Licensed Products for the next four (4) quarters, the first quarter of which shall be binding and the succeeding three (3) quarters of which shall be non-binding (the “Supply Forecast”).

4.6

Purchase Orders. Misonix shall obtain Licensed Products pursuant to individual purchase orders that are issued by Misonix or its Affiliates to PuriCore (each, a “Purchase Order”). PuriCore shall accept any Purchase Order that is consistent with the Supply Forecast. Such Purchase Order shall specify quantities ordered of each Licensed Product by category, delivery dates, and delivery and shipping instructions.

4.7

Conflict. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms and conditions of any Purchase Order, an Order Acknowledgement and this Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall govern.

4.8

Invoice and Payment Terms. Invoices will be issued on the shipment date for all Licensed Product. Unless Misonix has notified PuriCore, in accordance with Section 5.2, of non-conformity of Licensed Products delivered to Misonix, all payments for Licensed Product shall be made within forty-five (45) days of invoice either (a) by payment by Misonix to PuriCore of the invoice amount by wire transfer or (b) by a written account notice from Misonix applying a credit note balance on a credit note previously issued by PuriCore to Misonix pursuant to Clause 3.1 of the terms of the Notes as varied (as described in Section 6.3 of this Agreement) against the invoice amount. PuriCore agrees to promptly issue credit notes to Misonix after request therefor by the Issuer (as defined in Clause 3.1 of the Notes as amended by Deed). Such credit notes will be applied only at Misonix’s written direction and can be applied in whole or in part and during one or more quarters. Payments on outstanding balances not received within such time period shall bear interest at the lesser of (x) the maximum rate permitted by law, and (y) the Prime Rate as published in the Wall Street Journal. Any claims arising from alleged failures in shipment or delivery shall be waived and released by Misonix unless made in writing to PuriCore within forty-five (45) days from the date of shipment of such Licensed Product. PuriCore may refuse all further Purchase Orders and refuse to supply any Licensed Product until Misonix’s account is in compliance with the payment terms of this Agreement.

4.9

Failure to Supply.

(a)

In the event that (a) PuriCore fails to provide the Licensed Products as required by this Agreement for a period of ninety (90) consecutive days; or (b) PuriCore provides less than seventy percent (70%) of Licensed Products required under this Agreement in any twelve (12)-month period, then Misonix will be granted a license to manufacture the Licensed Products during the term of this Agreement (including any Extension Periods) using a manufacturing vendor of its choice. If Misonix gains the right to have the Licensed Products manufactured under this Section 4.9 and the aggregate Minimum Gross Profit has not yet been earned by PuriCore, then the Take or Pay Payments will be made regardless of who is manufacturing and supplying the Licensed Product, but such Take or Pay Payments will be suspended until Misonix (or its designee) has been manufacturing the Licensed Products for ninety (90) days. All such suspended Take or Pay Payments will be paid by Misonix before the end of the Initial Term plus a period of time equal to the time that such Take or Pay Payments have been suspended.

(b)

In the event that PuriCore provides less than ninety percent (90%) but more than seventy percent (70%) of Licensed Products required under this Agreement in any twelve (12)-month period, the Take or Pay Payments will be adjusted to reflect the difference between the ninety percent (90%) requirement and the percentage of Licensed Products actually delivered. The amount of the foregoing adjustment shall be added to amounts due, if any, under the Take or Pay Payments at the end of the Initial Term. By way of example, assume that (i) PuriCore supplies eighty percent (80%) of the Licensed Products required under this Agreement during the applicable period and (ii) the applicable Take or Pay Payment is $10,000. Because the shortfall is ten percent (10%), $1,000 of the Take or Pay Payment due shall be suspended and shall instead be added on to any Take or Pay Payment due at the end of the Initial Term (assuming the Minimum Gross Profit amount had not yet been otherwise achieved).

(c)

In the event Misonix’s right to manufacture Licensed Products has been triggered under this Section 4.9, and, despite its commercially reasonable efforts, Misonix is unable to manufacture Licensed Products or to have Licensed Products manufactured by manufacturing vendors (the date of written notice to PuriCore of such failure, which shall include reasonable detail of the efforts taken, shall be a “Trigger Date”), then the Minimum Gross Profit shall be reduced and certain payment obligations will be eliminated as set forth in Section 6.6.

4.10

Royalty. In the event that Misonix is manufacturing Licensed Products pursuant to Section 4.9(a), and after Misonix has satisfied the required Take or Pay Payments under this Agreement (as required by Section 4.9(a)), Misonix shall pay PuriCore a royalty (the “Royalty”) of [* * *] percent ([* * *]%) of Net Sales of Licensed Products.

4.11

Audit. Upon the written request of Misonix, and not more than once in each calendar year and upon at least thirty (30) days notice, PuriCore shall permit an independent consultant selected by Misonix and approved by PuriCore, at Misonix’s expense, to have access during normal business hours to PuriCore’s manufacturing facilities (including any contract manufacturer of PuriCore), as may be reasonably necessary to verify PuriCore’s compliance with cGMP. Such consultant shall enter into a reasonably acceptable confidentiality agreement with PuriCore, obligating such consultant to retain all such information in confidence pursuant to such confidentiality agreement, including Misonix, provided that such consultant can provide a report to Misonix with regard to its findings.

DELIVERY

5.1

Delivery. Licensed Product shall be delivered to Misonix, or to a location designated by Misonix in the Purchase Order, FOB (Incoterms, 2000) PuriCore’s facility loading dock, by a common carrier designated by Misonix in the Purchase Order.

5.2

Inspection. No later than twenty (20) days after Misonix’s receipt of delivered Licensed Product, Misonix will inspect the Licensed Product and will notify PuriCore of any claim that any such Licensed Product does not conform with the Specifications. Such notice shall be in writing and shall indicate the non-conforming characteristics of the Licensed Product. If Misonix does not notify PuriCore of non-conformity within such twenty (20)-day period, such Licensed Product shall be deemed accepted and PuriCore shall be released from any claim of non-conformity. If Misonix does notify PuriCore of non-conformity within such twenty (20)-day period, the appropriate personnel at the Parties shall in good faith investigate and attempt to resolve such non-conformity for a period of thirty (30) days. In the event that Misonix claims that the Licensed Product does not conform to the Specifications and PuriCore does not agree after such thirty (30)-day period, the Parties will mutually agree (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) upon a qualified Third Party to review records, test data and other relevant information and ascertain conformity or non-conformity. Such Third Party shall execute an appropriate confidentiality agreement reasonably approved in form and substance by both Parties. The Third Party’s findings will be binding on both Parties, and the costs of such third-Party testing and review will be borne by the Party found to be wrong.

5.3

Returns and Sole Remedy. Misonix may only return Licensed Product that the Parties have agreed do not conform to Specifications or that are found to be non-conforming pursuant to the process described in Section 5.2. As the sole remedy to Misonix for such non-conformity, PuriCore, at is option, shall either replace the non-conforming product or refund the payment for such non-conforming product.

CONSIDERATION

6.1

Payment by Misonix. On the Effective Date, Misonix will pay to PuriCore $650,000 in immediately available funds by wire transfer pursuant to the instructions set forth on Schedule 6.1.

6.2

Forgiveness of Commissions Under SPA. As of the Effective Date, Misonix hereby forgives in full PuriCore International Limited’s and PuriCore plc’s obligation under the SPA to pay $1,000,000 of Commissions (as defined in the SPA prior to amendment).

6.3

Modification to the Notes. The Parties acknowledge that, as additional consideration hereunder, the Notes will be amended by Deed to modify the payment terms. Specifically,

(a)

Clause 3.1 shall be amended by adding at the end “such repayment to be either by payment by the Issuer to the Noteholders as provided for in paragraph 3.1 of the Schedule 3 Conditions or by the Issuer procuring that PuriCore, Inc. forthwith issues a credit note to Misonix, Inc. to the value of such repayment to fund purchases by Misonix, Inc. from PuriCore, Inc. under the Product License and Distribution Agreement, dated July 18, 2011, by and between PuriCore, Inc. and Misonix, Inc. (the “PLDA”);

(b)

Paragraph 1.1 of Schedule 3 Conditions shall be amended by adding after the words Loan Note Instrument the words “under the payment or credit note mechanism provided for in Clause 3.1 of this Instrument”.

6.4

Purchase Price for Licensed Product; Minimum Gross Profit; Volume Targets.

(a)

Purchase Price. The purchase price for all Licensed Product purchased by Misonix under this Agreement shall be at a discount to PuriCore’s list price for each such Licensed Product. The discount rate shall be [* * *] percent ([* * *]%) of list price in Contract Year one; [* * *] percent ([* * *]%) of list price in Contract Year two; and [* * *] percent ([* * *]%) of list price in Contract Year three and all Extension Periods. Exhibit C sets forth PuriCore’s list price and cost of goods sold for each Licensed Product. Exhibit C will be updated in writing by the Parties for all Licensed Products as different Licensed Products become available for purchase by Misonix, and each such update shall become a part of this Agreement as if it were contained in this Agreement on the Effective Date.

(b)

Minimum Gross Profit. During the Initial Term only, and on a quarterly basis, Misonix will endeavor to purchase enough Licensed Product so that payment of the purchase price for such Licensed Products will provide to PuriCore enough Gross Profit in the applicable quarter to equal the applicable Quarterly Minimum Gross Profit and the aggregate Minimum Gross Profit during the Initial Term, as may be extended in accordance with Section 4.9(a). Except as otherwise provided in Section 6.6, to the extent that purchases of Licensed Products will not achieve the volume levels needed to provide the applicable Quarterly Minimum Gross Profit or the aggregate Minimum Gross Profit, then Misonix will make the Take or Pay Payments.

(c)

Minimum Volume Targets. Within the ninety (90) days before the end of the Initial Term and before the end of each Extension Period thereafter, the Parties shall mutually agree in writing to sales volume targets for the upcoming Extension Period, provided that such volume targets shall not increase by more than ten percent (10%) year over year unless mutually agreed in writing by the Parties. Misonix will not be obligated to purchase certain minimums, to provide additional minimum Gross Profit or to make Take or Pay Payments (unless mutually agreed in writing otherwise); however, if Misonix fails to purchase the agreed upon volume targets in the applicable agreed-upon time periods during any Extension Period, then PuriCore may, at is option, terminate this Agreement, which Misonix could, at its option, avoid by making a payment to PuriCore to provide the Gross Profit that would have been provided to PuriCore if Misonix had purchased amounts of Licensed Products to reach the applicable volume target.

6.5

Take or Pay. During the Initial Term of this Agreement, and on a quarterly basis, Misonix is obligated to pay to PuriCore a purchase price for quantities of Licensed Products that will provide the Quarterly Minimum Gross Profit whether or not it actually purchases enough Licensed Products from PuriCore to provide each applicable Quarterly Minimum Gross Profit. Therefore, it is the intention of the Parties that, to the extent that Misonix does not purchase sufficient quantities of Licensed Product under this Agreement to provide the applicable Quarterly Minimum Gross Profit, Misonix, unless as otherwise provided in Section 4.9 or Section 6.6, is subject to a take-or-pay arrangement for the Initial Term. Any payments necessary under the take-or-pay arrangement to reach the applicable Quarterly Minimum Gross Profit shall be referred to as

“Take or Pay Payments”. Misonix agrees that it will make Take or Pay Payments no matter what (unless such payments are relieved under Section 6.6 or suspended or relieved under Section 4.9). If this Agreement terminates for any reason before any Quarterly Minimum Gross Profit or the aggregate Minimum Gross Profit is earned by PuriCore from payments by Misonix for Licensed Product, then Misonix shall continue to be obligated to make the Take or Pay Payments if, as and when due pursuant to the terms of this Agreement unless relieved under Section 6.6. Misonix hereby waives its right of offset, recoupment, protest, suspension and presentment with regard to any claim, counterclaim or defense that arises under any agreement among PuriCore, or any Affiliate of PuriCore, and Misonix, or any Affiliate of Misonix, in existence now or in the future against any Take or Pay Payments, the Quarterly Gross Profit amounts and the aggregate Minimum Gross Profit. Misonix hereby waives its right to assert against PuriCore or its Affiliates any damage claim for or to offset against Take or Pay Payments, the Quarterly Gross Profit amounts and the aggregate Minimum Gross Profit. Nothing in the foregoing Section 6.5 is intended to negate credit notes to be issued by PuriCore to Misonix pursuant to Clause 3.1 of the Notes (as described in Section 6.3 of this Agreement) or Misonix’s right to apply such credit notes against any payments owed to PuriCore as provided in Section 4.8.

6.6

Reduction in Minimum Gross Profit; Elimination of Take or Pay Payments. Upon any Trigger Date (as defined in Sections 2.2, 4.9(c) or 7.5), (a) the aggregate Minimum Gross Profit amount shall be reduced to the sum of all Quarterly Minimum Gross Profit amounts due in each full contract quarter prior to the Trigger Date plus that amount of Gross Profit that would have been generated by all sales of Licensed Product delivered in the then current contract quarter, and subject to delivery under open purchase orders, as of the Trigger Date, (b) all remaining Quarterly Gross Profit amounts will be eliminated, and (c) once the reduced amount described in Section 6.6(a) is paid, Misonix will no longer be subject to any Take or Pay Payment obligations or Quarterly Minimum Gross Profit or aggregate Minimum Gross Profit requirements.

6.7

Currency. Any and all payments shall be made in United States Dollars and shall be remitted to PuriCore in immediately available funds by wire transfer pursuant to the instructions set forth on Schedule 6.1.

6.8

Settlement and Dismissal of Action. The parties acknowledge that the representations, warranties, covenants, obligations, benefits, and consideration provided for in this Agreement are also given in consideration of the settlement of the dispute between Misonix and certain Affiliates of PuriCore relating to the SPA and as soon as reasonably practicable on or after the Effective Date the claims and counterclaims in the action shall by consent be dismissed with no order as to costs.

6.9

If Royalties are due under Section 4.10, Royalties shall be paid to PuriCore on a quarterly basis, within forty-five (45) days after the end of each calendar quarter, based upon the Net Sales during such calendar quarter.

If (i) it is established that the Licensed Product was nonconforming pursuant to Section 5.2 upon delivery by PuriCore to Misonix, or (ii) such Recall arises from any breach by PuriCore of the provisions of this Agreement or Applicable Law, then PuriCore shall hold Misonix harmless and shall bear all expenses related to the Recall, including the replacement of the recalled or withdrawn Licensed Product, which shall be replaced as soon as reasonably practicable.

(ii)

If such Recall arises as a result of actions or omissions on the part of Misonix, or from any breach by Misonix of the provisions of this Agreement, then Misonix shall hold PuriCore harmless and shall bear all costs and expenses in connection with such Recall.

(c)

The Parties shall reasonably cooperate in good faith to effect a Recall. Misonix shall have sufficient quality control policies and procedures in place that it can track its shipments of Licensed Product so that Licensed Product sold by Misonix can be Recalled or customers notified of the Recall.

(d)

In the event that a Recall is triggered because of nonconforming Licensed Product (as determined under Section 5.2), the provisions of Section 4.9, if triggered, will control.

7.5

FDA Prohibition of Licensed Product. In the event that the FDA prohibits the sale of Licensed Product for use in the Field, and such FDA prohibition is final, permanent and no longer subject to appeal (the date of such shall be a “Trigger Date”), then (a) this Agreement shall terminate and (b) the Minimum Gross Profit shall be reduced and certain payment obligations will be eliminated as set forth in Section 6.6. During any such appeal period, Misonix’s obligations to make any Take or Pay Payments or meet Quarterly Minimum Gross Profit or aggregate Minimum Gross Profit requirements shall be suspended if Misonix is prohibited from selling the Licensed Products. If Misonix is (if ever) again permitted to sell Licensed Products, its obligations to make Take or Pay Payments and meet Quarterly Minimum Gross Profit and aggregate Minimum Gross Profit requirements will resume and all such suspended Take or Pay Payments will be paid by Misonix before the end of the Initial Term plus a period of time equal to the time that such Take or Pay Payment have been suspended.

14.

TERM AND TERMINATION

14.1

Initial Term; Extensions. The “Initial Term” of this Agreement shall begin on the Effective Date, shall endure until completion of three Contract Years, and shall end at midnight on the final day of the third Contract Year (the “Expiration Date”), unless earlier terminated under the express provisions of this Section 14. If Misonix is in material compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement at the Expiration Date or the end of any Extension Period, then the Agreement shall automatically renew for successive two-year periods (each an “Extension Period”); provided that the Parties have mutually agreed in writing to sales volume targets for each Extension Period as provided under Section 6.4(c), and each year within such Extension Period, within the ninety (90) days prior to the end of the Initial Term or then current Extension Period (as set forth in Section 6.4(c)) and provided that the cost terms shall be no less favorable than the twelve (12) months leading up to the start of the then current Extension Period. If, after using good faith efforts, the Parties do not reach any such mutual agreement as to sales volume targets, or the Parties mutually agree to terminate this Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate. This Agreement shall terminate under the circumstances and provisions of Section 7.5. Any Extension Period can be terminated early under the express provisions of this Section 14. In no event shall this Agreement survive beyond the expiration or invalidation of all of the PuriCore Patents.

14.2

Termination for Cause. At any time prior to termination pursuant to Sections 14.1 or 14.3, a non-breaching Party may terminate this Agreement for “Cause”. Cause for termination of this Agreement shall be deemed to exist when a Party has materially breached any term of this Agreement and (a) for a breach related to the payment of money, the breaching Party has failed to cure such breach within five (5) Business Days after receipt of written notice from the non-breaching Party describing such breach, (b) for all other breaches, the breaching Party has failed to cure such breach within ninety (90) days after receipt of written notice from the non-breaching Party describing such breach, or (c) the Parties have not entered into a written agreement for the cure of said breach or other resolution thereof, conditionally waiving or temporarily staying termination for cause. Such termination rights shall be in addition to and not in substitution for any other remedies that may be available to the non-breaching Party at law or at equity. Termination pursuant to this Section 14.2 shall not relieve the Party in default from liability and damages to the other Party for breach. In the event this Agreement is terminated by PuriCore due to Misonix’s Cause, Misonix’s payment obligations under this Agreement shall be an amount equal to (i) amounts outstanding for Licensed Products previously delivered to Misonix, plus (ii) such amount, if any, needed to reach the two million dollars ($2,000,000) cumulative Gross Profit provided for by this Agreement, unless said two million

dollars ($2,000,000) requirement has been reduced in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, plus (iii) any Royalties that may be due, minus (iv) any unapplied credits issued by PuriCore pursuant to Clause 3.1 of the Notes (as described in Section 6.3 of this Agreement) that may remain outstanding, and minus (v) any amounts due and owing under the Notes for which no credit was issued; provided that nothing in this sentence shall be a waiver or serve to limit any damages or any other obligation that Misonix might owe to PuriCore under this Agreement or as a consequence of such breach. Termination shall not impair the obligations of the maker under the Notes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any breach by PuriCore of the exclusivity covenant in Section 2.2, due to non-conformity to Specifications as provided in Section 5, or any failure to supply Licensed Product shall not be considered “Cause” under this provision, shall not give rise to a termination right, and shall give rise to Misonix of the sole remedies and consequences expressly provided in Sections 2.2, 4.9 and 5.3, as applicable.

14.3

Additional Termination Rights.

(a)

PuriCore may terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.4(c), which Misonix could avoid pursuant to Section 6.4(c).

(b)

After the Initial Term, PuriCore may terminate this Agreement for any or no reason upon twelve (12) months written notice with no financial obligations imposed upon Misonix related to the purchased Licensed Product hereunder other than to pay (i) amounts outstanding for Licensed Products previously delivered to Misonix and (ii) any Royalties that may be due.

(c)

PuriCore may terminate this Agreement effective immediately upon written notice by PuriCore to Misonix in the event that there is a “change in control” of Misonix in which a competitor of PuriCore (a “Competitor”) has gained direct or indirect control of Misonix. For purposes of this Section 14.3, a “change in control” shall mean any of the following: (i) the sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of Misonix to a Competitor, (ii) the acquisition by a Competitor or any group of persons or entities who are Competitors acting in concert, other than an employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by Misonix or any of its Affiliates, of more than 50% of Misonix’s outstanding shares of voting capital stock (e.g., capital stock entitled to vote generally for the election of directors), (iii) the appointment or election to the board of directors of Misonix of members constituting a majority of such board who were not appointed, approved or recommended for election by the board of directors as constituted immediately prior to the appointment or election of such majority and who were nominated, appointed, approved or recommended by or on behalf of a Competitor, or (iv) the merger or consolidation of Misonix or an Affiliate of

Misonix with or into another corporation or entity that is, is an Affiliate of or is controlled by a Competitor, other than, in the case of (ii) or (iv), an acquisition or a merger or consolidation of Misonix or an Affiliate of Misonix in which holders of shares of Misonix’s voting capital stock immediately prior to the acquisition, merger or consolidation have at least 50% of the ownership of voting capital stock of the acquiring Competitor or the surviving entity in such merger or consolidation, as the case may be, immediately after the merger or consolidation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a “change of control” will not be deemed to occur on account of the acquisition of securities of Misonix by an institutional investor that acquires Misonix’s securities in a transaction or series of related transactions as a passive investment which does not affect the management of Misonix, or a sale of assets, merger or other transaction effected exclusively for the purpose of changing the corporate domicile of Misonix. For purposes of this Section 14.3(c), the term “Competitor” shall also include any Affiliate of such Competitor.

(d)

Misonix may terminate this Agreement upon ninety (90) days written notice if it no longer has exclusivity under Section 2.2.

14.4

Effect of Expiration or Termination on Agreement.

(a)

No Relief from Accrued Obligations. Termination of this Agreement shall not relieve the parties of any obligation occurring or incurred prior to such termination, nor shall it relieve Misonix from making all Take or Pay Payments and paying to PuriCore the Quarterly Minimum Gross Profit or the aggregate Minimum Gross Profit pursuant to Section 6.5, unless expressly provided otherwise under Section 6.6.

(b)

Reversion of License. Upon termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 14, all license rights granted by PuriCore in and to Licensed Technology under this Agreement shall terminate and revert to PuriCore. Consequently, neither Misonix nor its Affiliates shall have any license rights to use or sell Licensed Products in the Field or in the Territory.

(c)

Right to Sell Off. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Misonix is not in breach of any payment obligations under this Agreement at the time of termination, Misonix shall be permitted to continue selling the Licensed Products until the earlier of (i) Misonix’s inventory is exhausted, (ii) PuriCore has repurchased all Licensed Products in Misonix’s possession pursuant to clause (d) below, or (iii) twelve (12) months from termination has elapsed.

(d)

Right to Repurchase. Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason, PuriCore shall have the right but not the obligation to purchase Misonix’s unsold inventory of the Licensed Products in merchantable condition or having a remaining shelf life acceptable to PuriCore at the actual purchase price paid by Misonix.

(e)

Return of Materials. Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason, each Party shall upon request promptly return to the requesting Party all of the requesting Party’s relevant records, materials and Confidential Information in the possession or control of the other Party.

15.
