the Agreement, will be granted by Omrix to MDA, and Provided further
that until that date an agreement between MDA and Omrix with respect
to cooperation in additional subjects shall have been reached.

then shall be payable immediately
5. THE RENT
Notwithstanding the provisions of the Agreement and of the Addendum dated
March 26th, 2003, the rent that Omrix shall be liable to pay as from
1.1.04 will be as follows:

USD plus an amount being *** of the overall net turnover of the sale
of products by Omrix to third parties (including also biological
glue and products which are not "Licensed Products" as defined in
the Agreement) that will be sold during the year of 2004.
In this respect, the "total net sales turnover" shall mean the sales
to third parties of all the products of any kind which Omrix has

commercial reductions given to third parties, returned products and

of 700,000 USD per annum plus an amount being *** from the overall
net turnover sales of the products (as defined in subsection (a)
above), but not less than $1.1 million and not more than 2 million
USD, in one year.

(c) It is agreed that payments based on turnover as indicated in
subsections (a) and (b) above, shall be paid twice a year, on June
30th and on December 31st each year, accompanied by sales reports.
If it appears that the sales turnover was different from what was
expected according to the actual payments, the final payment for
each year shall be determined until March 31st of the calendar year
thereafter.
6. THE TERM OF THE LEASE
(a) Notwithstanding the provisions of the Agreement, the term of the

31.12.2010, as aforesaid, and leaves the plant before that date -
Omrix shall be liable to pay MDA an amount of 500,000 USD for each
year as from the date of the actual termination of the lease and

and Omrix shall pay MDA the proper proportional price, for those
components of plasma which shall have actually been used for
manufacturing. In addition, if Omrix manufactures additional
products (which are not included in the Licensed Products) the price
of the plasma shall be accordingly increased. For the avoidance of
doubt it is hereby clarified that if Omrix exercises its right

proportion to the price of *** of fresh frozen plasma and *** of
frozen plasma.

said third party is ready to pay, by giving a notice in writing to
MDA to that effect not later than 15 days after receiving a written
letter from MDA in which MDA states the prices offered by third
party.
8. MDA is ready to purchase from Omrix approximately 2 tons of pasta for the
manufacturing of Albumin and 150 kg of the final product of Albumin, both
of which their expiry date will not be before June 30st 2005, at a total
price of ***. The transaction will take place before the end of 2004.
9. Without derogating from the obligations of the parties under the Agreement
for the maintenance of the Systems as defined therein, it is agreed, that
the following maintenance or repair works in that Plant shall be born by
MDA, in the following events:

replace some parts in it.

or system, being permanent and inseparable part of the building,
e.g. an electricity, water, sewage, which prevent the proper
operation of the system to which it belongs.

result of a wear and tear caused by the use of the Plant by Omrix
and in which is not included in the day-to-day maintenance work.
d. There is a breakdown of a system or a component, even if it does not
fall in the meaning of the term "System", as defined in the
Agreement, provided it was originally built or erected by MDA
designated solely for the Plant and the breakdown is not the result
of a negligent or intentional action of Omrix or any of its
employees or subcontractors.
e. The obligation of MDA to finance or to pay the maintenance or repair
works as per subsections b and d shall not exceed the amount of
100,000$ in one calendar year, unless and to the extend the rent
paid to MDA in such a year exceeds 1,300,000$. It is further
clarified that MDA will not have to pay for any repairs or
maintenance work unless it certifies in advance such payment. In the
event of urgent work Omrix may execute it without a prior approval
provided that in such a case MDA will not be responsible for more
than 10.000$.
10. The parties will examine positively the possibility to construct in the
area of the blood services a plant for biological glue, both from the
point of view of the laws of town planning and environmental requirements,
and from the point of view of the required investment and its financing
and also from the point of view of payments that should be made to MDA.
