ARTICLE 6
ROYALTIES; REVENUE SHARE

6.1 Compensation, Revenue Share or Royalties. Each party will pay the other party any compensation, revenue share payments or royalties due as agreed between the parties. Any revenue share or royalty due from a party shall be paid on a calendar quarter basis following shipment of the products that trigger the payment. Customer agrees to pay IM a royalty on any sale of Products by Customer, Customer Affiliate or Third Party licensee of Customer (“Royalty”) and provide reports and payments as set forth in Section 6.4. The operation of the Equipment in HPC Mode and the licenses granted by IM to Customer are subject to the payment of all applicable fees in the Quote and a Royalty on Products as set forth below. Customer shall pay a Royalty to IM equal to [*] percent ([*]%) on gross sales proceeds of Products, less the following when separately itemized on or included and identifiable in invoices related to the sale of the Product: (i) allowances, discounts, including cash discounts, rebates and returns all to the extent actually given in the trade by Customer or its affiliates; (ii) sales, excise and similar taxes (including but not limited to any value added tax) or duties; (iii) insurance, packaging (except packaging that directly encloses the Products), and handling, shipping, transportation or similar; and (iv) credits or repayment for rejection or return of Products. If Customer has suitable written

records that reflect actually incurred direct costs (including but not limited to freight out, customs, duty, distribution and warehousing). Customer may deduct such direct costs (up to an additional aggregate amount not to exceed [*]% of the gross sales proceeds for all Products during any reporting period) prior to computing the royalty on gross sales proceeds, even if such direct costs are not separately itemized to the customer. In the case that Customer enables a Third Party to make or sell a Product under license in. exchange for a royalty to Customer, the Royalty payable by Customer to IM for such use shall be calculated on the value of the Product used to calculate the royalty paid to Customer (“Product Value”). For business arrangements between Customer and Third Parties related to (i) Products for which the Product Value cannot be derived, or (ii) other Customer monetization derived through use of the Dry Workflow or Dry HPC Technology not otherwise described herein, IM and Customer agree to negotiate in good faith to set the compensation, if any, due to IM. Notwithstanding Section 12.16 of this Agreement, in the event that the parties cannot agree for a period of [*] days after escalation to their respective chief executive officers to a reasonable compensation, the parties will use the procedure of Section 4.9.3 to determine compensation due to IM.

6.2 Third Party Royalties. Each party shall be responsible for all of its own costs of commercializing Products or licensing Intellectual Property Rights, including any payments to Third Parties for work done by such Third Parties or for licenses necessary for the manufacture, sale, or use of Products by a party or its Affiliates or sublicensees.

6.3 Payment Method. All payments due under this Agreement shall be made by bank wire transfer or ACH transaction in immediately available funds to a bank account designated by the payee. Where IM is the payee, payments shall be made to the bank account below or as otherwise designated by IM. All payments hereunder shall be from a U.S. entity and made in U.S. dollars.

Nothing in this Section 6.3 shall prejudice any other rights or remedies available to either party hereunder or at law or equity.

6.4 Reports and Payments. After the first sale of a Product on which Royalties are payable by Customer, Customer shall make [*] written reports to IM within [*] days after the end of each calendar [*], stating in each such report, separately for itself and each Affiliate and each sublicense, the number, description, and total sales of each Product sold, and a calculation of the Royalties due as a result of license grants to Third Parties, the manner of calculation of each as specified in Section 6.1. Concurrently with the making of such reports, Customer shall pay IM all amounts due as set forth in the report. In the event payment are due from IM to Customer hereunder, IM shall follow the same procedure.

6.5 Currency Conversions. If any currency conversion shall be required in connection with the calculation of royalties hereunder, such conversion shall be made using the selling exchange rate for conversion of the foreign currency into U.S. Dollars, quoted for current transactions reported in The Wall Street Journal for the last business day of the quarter to which such payment pertains.

6.6 Records; Inspection. Each party and its Affiliates shall keep complete, true and accurate books of account and records for the purpose of determining the royalty amounts payable under this Agreement. Such books and records shall be kept at the principal place of business of such party, as the case may be, for at least [*] years following the end of the calendar [*] to which they pertain. Such records will be open for inspection during such [*] year period by an independent auditor reasonably acceptable to the audited party, solely for the purpose of verifying royalty statements

hereunder. Such inspections may be made no more than once each calendar year, at reasonable times and on reasonable notice. Inspections conducted under this Section 6.6 shall be at the expense of the auditing party, unless a variation or error producing an increase of at least [*] Dollars ($[*]) and exceeding [*]percent ([*]%) of the amount stated for any period covered by the inspection is established in the course of any such inspection, whereupon all reasonable costs relating to the inspection for such period and any unpaid amounts that are discovered will be paid promptly by the audited party together with interest thereon for late payments as set forth above. Each party agrees to hold in confidence all information concerning royalty payments and reports, and all information learned in the course of any audit or inspection, except to the extent necessary to enforce its rights under this Agreement or to the extent disclosure is required by law.

For purposes of this section, “Public Company” shall mean a company that is subject to the reporting requirements of either Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
