Control No. 2007-04-0358) dated September 17, 2010 (together, the “Original Agreement”); and

WHEREAS, the Licensor is willing to grant a royalty-bearing, non-exclusive sublicense under the Original Agreement to the Licensed Patent Rights to Licensee on the terms set forth herein; and

WHEREAS, Licensee and Licensor are also parties to that certain Testing and Services Agreement of even date herewith (the “Testing and Services Agreement”) and that certain Settlement Agreement of even date herewith (the “Settlement Agreement”); and

WHERAS, Licensee does not believe it needs a license under the Licensed Patent Rights, is only entering into this Agreement in an effort to resolve the disputes under the Settlement Agreement, and would not otherwise enter into this Agreement without receiving from Licensor the Credit described in Section 4.3 below.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises below and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereto expressly agree as follows:

1.DEFINITIONS

1.1.“Affiliate” shall mean any corporation or other business entity (i) in which

Licensee owns or controls, directly or indirectly, at least fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding stock or other voting rights entitled to elect directors or (ii) which owns or controls, directly or indirectly, at least fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding stock or other voting rights of Licensee entitled to elect directors.

1.2.“Change of Control” means the sale of all or substantially all the assets of a Party; any merger, consolidation or acquisition of a Party with, by or into another Third Party; or any change in the ownership of more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting capital stock of a Party in one or more related transactions.

1.3.“Certified State(s)” shall have the meaning specified in the Testing and Services Agreement.

1.4.“Confidential Information” shall mean all confidential information disclosed by one Party to the other Party under this Agreement and marked or designated by the disclosing Party as confidential by appropriate legend or instruction. Confidential Information shall not include information which the receiving Party can demonstrate: (i) was at the time of disclosure in the public domain; (ii) has come into the public domain after disclosure through no fault of the receiving Party; (iii) was known to the receiving Party prior to disclosure thereof by the disclosing Party; (iv) was lawfully disclosed to the receiving Party by a third party which was not under an obligation of confidence to the disclosing Party with respect thereto; (v) which the receiving Party can reasonably demonstrate was independently developed by the receiving Party without use of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information.

1.5.“Customer” shall mean any individual or entity that receives a Licensed Product, provided however, that Licensee or any Affiliate of Licensee shall be deemed a Customer only if it receives a Licensed Product for its own end-use and not resale.

1.6.“Field” shall mean in vitro diagnostics for screening, diagnosing and monitoring for Ovarian Cancer in humans in the form of OVA1 tests solely for sale to or by Quest Diagnostics, Aspira Labs, and any other person or entity that has revenue in the United States of less than $2,000,000,000 per year.

1.7.“Final Sale” shall mean any sale, transfer, lease, exchange or other disposition, or provision of a Licensed Product and/or a Licensed Method to a Customer. A Final Sale shall be deemed to have occurred upon the earliest to occur of the following (as applicable): (a) the transfer of title to such Licensed Product to a Customer, (b) the shipment of such Licensed

Product to a Customer, (c) the provision of a Licensed Method to a Customer, (d) the provision of an invoice for such Licensed Product or Licensed Method to a Customer, or (e) payment by the Customer for a Licensed Product or Licensed Method.

1.8.“Licensed Method” shall mean any process or method which is covered by the Licensed Patent Rights whose use or practice absent a license would constitute an infringement of any valid claim within the License Patent Rights.

1.9.“Licensed Patent Rights” shall mean the patents and patent applications set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto; any continuing applications thereof, including divisions; but excluding continuations in part except to the extent of claims entirely supported in the specification and entitled to the priority date of the parent application; any patents issuing on these applications including reissues and reexaminations; and any patents that take priority therefrom; all of which will be automatically incorporated in and added to Appendix A and made part of this Agreement.

1.10.“Licensed Product” shall mean any article, composition, apparatus, substance, chemical or any other material covered by the Licensed Patent Rights to the extent whose manufacture, use or sale, absent a license, would constitute an infringement of any valid claim within the Licensed Patent Rights, or any service, article, composition, apparatus, chemical, substance or any other material made, used, or sold by or utilizing or practicing a Licensed Method. This definition of Licensed Product also includes a service either used by Licensee, or provided by Licensee, when such service requires the use of a Licensed Product or performance of a Licensed Method.

Where Licensee is the Customer, then Net Sales shall be based on the gross amount normally invoiced or otherwise charged to other Customers in an arms’ length transaction for such Licensed Products or Licensed Methods. For the avoidance of doubt, if Licensee supplies (directly or indirectly) a product that constitutes a Licensed Product to any Affiliate, and such Affiliate includes such

product in another product, then Net Sales shall be based on the total gross amount invoiced or otherwise charged for such other product in its entirety.

1.12.“Party” shall mean either Licensee or Licensor, as applicable, and “Parties” shall mean both Licensee and Licensor.

1.13.“Territory” shall mean all Certified States and those countries wherein Licensee shall have satisfied the conditions specified in Section 1.4 of the Testing and Services Agreement with jurisdictions where Licensed Patent Rights exist.

This Agreement is entered into for the convenience of the Parties and for purposes of compromise of the disputed claims covered by the Settlement Agreement. Nothing contained in this Agreement, or done or omitted in connection with this Agreement, is intended as or

shall be construed as an admission of or by any Party of any infringement, fault, liability or wrongdoing whatsoever. This Agreement shall not be admissible or otherwise relied upon in connection with any proceeding alleging that any product or service of Licensee infringes any of the Licensed Patent Rights.

4.CONSIDERATION

4.1.Running Royalty. Licensee shall pay the Licensor a running royalty of two percent (2%) of Net Sales. Such running royalties shall be payable as provided in Section 5.1.

4.2Annual Minimum Royalty. Beginning on the one year anniversary of the Effective Date, and on each anniversary thereof during the Term, Licensee shall pay to Licensor an Annual Minimum Royalty equal to a pro rata portion of Twenty Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) allocated across all Net Sales of Licensed Product and Licensed Methods under this Agreement, the Original Agreement and all other agreements between Licensor and any third party sublicensee of the Licensed Patent Rights, which amount will be credited against the earned royalties due and owing for the calendar year in which the minimum payment was made.

4.3Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties acknowledge and agree that, pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, Licensor has granted to Licensee a credit in the amount of up to One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) which may be applied against the Annual Minimum Royalty under Section 4.2 and any running royalties due pursuant to Section 4.1 until such credit amount is exhausted.

5.PAYMENTS AND REPORTS

5.1.Payment Due. Payment of the royalties specified in Section 4.1 above shall be made by Licensee to the Licensor within forty five (45) days after March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year during the term of this Agreement covering Net Sales of Licensed Products during the preceding calendar quarter.

0.0.Xxxxx Payment. Within forty five (45) days of termination or expiration of this Agreement, a final payment shall be made by Licensee covering Net Sales of Licensed Product during the whole or partial calendar quarter preceding such termination or expiration.

5.3.Quarterly Report. Each quarterly payment shall be accompanied by a written statement of Net Sales of Licensed Products by Licensee during such calendar quarter. Such written statements shall be duly signed by an authorized signatory of Licensee on behalf of

Licensee and shall show in reasonably specific detail, on a country by country basis, (a) the gross sales of each Licensed Product sold by Licensee during the reporting period and the calculation of Net Sales from such gross sales; (b) the royalties payable in United States dollars, if any, which shall have accrued hereunder based upon Net Sales of each Licensed Product; (c) the withholding taxes, if any, required by law to be deducted in respect of such sales, subject to Section 5.7 below; and (d) the exchange rates used in determining the amount of United States dollars.

5.4.Termination for Non-Payment. Should Licensee fail to make any payment whatsoever due and payable to the Licensor hereunder, the Licensor may, at its sole option, terminate this Agreement as provided in Section 8.2.

5.5.U.S. Currency. The gross sales, Net Sales, and royalties payable shall be expressed in United States dollars. .

5.6.Taxes. Licensee may withhold taxes on the amounts otherwise payable to the Licensor under this agreement as required by applicable law. The parties agree to cooperate in good faith to reduce or eliminate the amount of any such withholding taxes under the provisions of applicable law, include the provisions of any applicable income tax treaty. As may be required under applicable law in order to reduce or eliminate the amount of any withholding tax, Licensor shall be entitled to timely provide to Licensee a duly and properly executed certificate of exemption from withholding tax or certificate of reduced withholding tax, or such other forms as may be required under applicable law to reduce or eliminate the amount of withholding tax, and Licensee shall withhold taxes in accordance with such duly and properly executed certificate or forms. Licensee shall remit any withheld taxes to the relevant authorities on behalf of Licensor and upon request of Licensor, Licensee shall provide to Licensor appropriate evidence of the payment to the relevant authorities of the amounts withheld and remitted to the relevant authorities on behalf of Licensor.

5.7.Past Due Amounts. In the event that any payment due hereunder is not made when due, the payment shall accrue simple interest of ten percent (10%) per annum to be calculated from the date payment was due until it was actually received by Licensor, provided, however, that in no event shall said annual interest rate exceed the maximum legal interest rate for corporations. Each such royalty payment when made shall be accompanied by all interest so accrued. Said interest and the payment and acceptance thereof shall not negate or waive the right of the Licensor to seek any other remedy, legal or equitable, to which it may be entitled because of the delinquency of any payment.

5.8.If License pays a third party royalties in consideration for patent rights which arc necessary in order to practice the Licensed Patent Rights, then Licensee, as the case may be, may deduct 0.333% from the royalty rate due to Licensor under this Agreement for every percentage point paid to such third party in royalties, provided that in no event shall royalties or other amounts due to Licensor in any reporting period be reduced to less than 50%, of what would otherwise be due to Licensor.

0.0.Xx the event that a Licensed Product is sold as a combination product containing the Licensed Product and one or more other product(s) not covered by the Licensed Patent Rights (“Other Components”), Net Sales shall be calculated by multiplying the gross amount invoiced for the sale of the combination product by the fraction A/A+B where A is the average gross selling price of the Licensed Product sold separately by Licensee and B is the average gross selling price of such Other Components sold separately by Licensee during the relevant royalty payment period. In the event a substantial number of such separate sales were not made during the relevant royalty payment period, the Net Sales of such combination products shall be reasonably allocated between such Licensed Product and such Other Components based on their relative importance or value. For the avoidance of doubt, third party royalties owed on such Other Components shall not be subject to the stacking provisions set forth in Paragraph 5.8 above.

6.RECORDS AND INSPECTION

6.1.Records. Licensee shall maintain or cause to be maintained a true and correct set of records pertaining to the Net Sales by Licensee under this Agreement, and preserve such records for at least five (5) years from the date of the royalty payment to which they pertain.

6.2.Audits. During the term of this Agreement and for a one (1) year thereafter, Licensee agrees to permit an independent accountant selected and paid by the Licensor and reasonably acceptable to Licensee to have access at Licensee’s offices during ordinary business hours of Licensee to such records as are maintained by Licensee as may be necessary to determine the correctness of any royalty report and/or payment made under this Agreement. In the event that the audit reveals an underpayment of totally annual royalties by more than five percent (5%), the cost of the audit shall be paid by Licensee. In the event that the audit reveals an overpayment of any royalties, such amounts shall be promptly refunded to Licensee. Such accountant shall maintain in confidence, and shall not disclose to the Licensor, any information concerning Licensee or its operations or properties other than information directly relating to the correctness of such reports and payments.

7.INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

7.1.Confidentiality. Each Party shall maintain the Confidential Information of the other Party in strict confidence, and agrees not to use such Confidential Information except in accordance with this Agreement. The receiving Party shall have the right to disclose Confidential Information of the disclosing Party only to those employees, consultants, agents, representatives, officers and directors as necessary on a need-to-know basis. The foregoing obligation of confidentiality shall survive termination of this Agreement. Each Party acknowledges that the unauthorized disclosure or use of Confidential Information of the other Party may result in substantial damage to the disclosing Party which cannot be quantified. Therefore, each Party agrees that the other Party may seek equitable relief such as an injunction or specific performance, in addition to monetary damages and all other remedies available at law or equity, as a remedy for any such breach of this Agreement, and such disclosing Party waives any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy.

7.2.Use of Names and Trademarks. Neither Party is permitted to use any name, trade name, trademark or other designation of the other Party or its employees (including contraction, abbreviation or simulation of any of the foregoing) in any advertising, publicity or other promotional activity.

7.3.Third Party Infringement. Licensee shall promptly inform Licensor of any suspected infringement in the Field of any claims in the Licensed Patent Rights by a third party.

option, to cancel and terminate this Agreement.
