4.5 Forecasts and Allocation
4.5.1 Within thirty (30) days after the Effective Date of this
Agreement and at the beginning of each calendar quarter
thereafter, CUSTOMER will provide Orchid with a written
forecast of its requirements for Consumables for a minimum of
the next four (4) calendar quarters. The first calendar quarter
of such forecast represents a firm commitment to purchase such
Consumables in that quarter (subject to the cancellation and
deferral provisions of paragraphs 4.1.4 and 4.1.5). The
remaining portion of each forecast represents a non-binding
projection on which Orchid will base its material procurement
and manufacturing plans.
4.5.2 In the event that demand for any Consumable should at any time
exceed Orchid's capacity to fill and deliver all of its
CUSTOMER's orders (and its own need for Consumables), Orchid
will notify CUSTOMER of the excess demand. Until such time as
the excess demand abates or Orchid's capacity becomes
sufficient to meet such demand Orchid will have the right,
subject to paragraphs 4.1.3 and 4.5.3, to equitably allocate,
in any reasonable manner, its available supplies, manufacturing
capacity, inventory and other resources, among CUSTOMER, itself
and its other customers, including those not then under
contract.
4.5.3 Further to paragraph 4.5.2, in the event Orchid is unable, or
expects to be unable, to reasonably supply CUSTOMER 's total
requirements of Consumables for [*] consecutive business
days, CUSTOMER may self-supply or obtain from any other source,
reasonably acceptable to Orchid, that portion of its
requirements for Consumables which Orchid is unable to
reasonably supply for so long as Orchid is unable or expects to
be unable to supply such portion of CUSTOMER's requirements.
Any such third party alternate source will supply only
Consumables that conform to Specifications and are of the same
or better quality as those supplied by Orchid. Orchid will
provide CUSTOMER with Know How and technical assistance and
information as may be reasonably required by CUSTOMER to
establish an alternate source of Consumables, including a
license under any patent which Orchid has rights to license on
the method of manufacture of the Consumables or on the method
of use of the Consumables authorized in this Agreement. Any
Consumable that, when ordered by CUSTOMER in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement, Orchid is unable to supply shall
count toward satisfaction of CUSTOMER's Minimum Through-
put/year obligation under Schedule 2.1.1.
4.6 Inspection and Acceptance
4.6.1 CUSTOMER may conduct acceptance testing upon receipt of
Consumables to verify conformance with Specifications. In the
absence of written notice to Orchid of nonconformance and
nonacceptance within
[*] CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL OMITTED AND FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE
COMMISSION. ASTERISKS DENOTE SUCH OMISSIONS.
9
thirty (30) business days of delivery, the Consumables will be
deemed accepted.
4.6.2 If Orchid disputes CUSTOMER's notice that a Consumable fails to
conform to Specifications, such dispute will be resolved by an
independent laboratory, selected by Orchid and reasonably
acceptable to CUSTOMER, whose determination will be final and
binding, absent manifest error. All fees and disbursements
incurred in connection with the independent determination will
be borne by the party which incorrectly determined that the
Consumable did or did not conform to the Specifications and
shall be shared equally by the parties if it is determined that
the Consumables conformed in part and failed to conform in
part.
4.6.3 Orchid promptly will replace any Consumable not conforming to
the Specifications, at its expense; or, if unable to make
prompt replacement, refund any payment made on the
nonconforming Consumable. The amount of any nonconforming
Consumables that are not replaced within thirty (30) days after
final determination of nonconformity shall be deducted from the
Minimum Throughput/yr. described in Schedule 2.1.1. CUSTOMER
shall not be required to pay for any non-conforming
Consumables.
4.7 Limited License
4.7.1 Orchid grants to CUSTOMER, for the term of this Agreement, a
non-exclusive license to use the Consumables (both those
provided under Section 4 and those provided under section 4.5.3
hereof) in connection with CUSTOMER's use of the System as
provided herein. CUSTOMER acknowledges that Consumables
delivered and sold to CUSTOMER are under license from Orchid
solely for the uses specified in paragraph 2.6.2. Orchid
acknowledges that it has no right to limit, and that no such
limitation of use shall apply to, CUSTOMER Assay Data. No other
license is intended or granted through sale of Consumables to
CUSTOMER.
4.7.2 Purchase by CUSTOMER of Consumables does not include or carry
any right to resell or transfer Consumables, either as a stand
alone product or as a component of another product, or to
disassemble and use any component or part of any Consumable
separate from its other components and parts, or to otherwise
commercially exploit the Consumables. Any use of Consumables
other than the licensed use without the prior, express written
authorization of Orchid is strictly prohibited.

all countries and to vest title thereto in Orchid, its successors,
assigns or nominees. CUSTOMER agrees to perform these acts without
charge to Orchid, but at Orchid's expense. This paragraph survives
any termination or expiration of this Agreement.
8. Confidentiality
8.1 CUSTOMER agrees not to disclose publicly or to any third party, and to
keep in strictest confidence, all (i) prices and price schedules, (ii)
Technical Data, (iii) Know How, (iv) Improvements, and (v) all
information identified by Orchid as being secret or confidential. If
any information under clause (v) is disclosed in written or electronic
format, it must be prominently labeled "Confidential," "Proprietary,"
etc. If any information under clause (v) is disclosed in visual
and/or oral format, it must be stated to be confidential at the time
of disclosure and summarized in a writing sent to CUSTOMER within
thirty (30) days thereafter.
8.2 The obligation of confidentiality under this paragraph 8 does not
apply to information which CUSTOMER can demonstrate is known publicly,
is in the public domain or enters into the public domain without the
fault of CUSTOMER, was known to CUSTOMER prior to the Effective Date
of this Agreement, is disclosed to CUSTOMER by a third party not under
obligation of confidence, is independently developed by employees or
agents of CUSTOMER without access
14
to, or use of, Orchid's confidential information, or which CUSTOMER is
required to disclose in order to comply with any applicable law,
regulation or governmental order.
8.3 The obligations of this paragraph 8 survive and continue for a period
of five (5) years after any termination or expiration of this
Agreement.
9. Term and Termination
9.1 This Agreement will expire and terminate at the end of the price
schedule selected by CUSTOMER on attached Schedule 2.1.1; provided,
however, that CUSTOMER shall have the right to extend the term of this
Agreement, for a like period, up to three (3) times, upon notice and
payment to Orchid at least ninety (90) days in advance of the then
current expiration date. CUSTOMER shall pay Orchid an annual renewal
fee in connection with each such extension. The amount of such
renewal fee shall be determined by the parties, in good faith, after
delivery of CUSTOMER's renewal notice and shall be (i) based
CUSTOMER's past level of usage of Orchid's support and maintenance
services, and (ii) competitive with renewal fees Orchid is then
charging other similarly situated customers. The price of Consumables
during each successive extension period shall, notwithstanding
paragraph 4.3.3, decrease by at least [*].
9.2 Orchid and CUSTOMER have the right to terminate this Agreement if the
other fails to make any payment due and owing, or commits a breach of
any material provision of this Agreement and fails to make such
payment within thirty (30) days or remedy such breach within sixty
(60) days after receiving written notice of such default or breach.
This right of termination, however, cannot be exercised if at any time
during said time period, the party accused of default or breach cures
such default or breach or provides proof that such party is not in
default or has not committed such breach. In such event Orchid and
CUSTOMER will negotiate in good faith to resolve the disputed payment
or breach before taking any other action to resolve same.
9.3 Subject to applicable law (including the U.S. Bankruptcy Code), Orchid
and CUSTOMER each have the right to terminate this Agreement if any
proceeding is instituted by or against the other party seeking to
adjudicate it bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking liquidation, winding
up, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, protection, relief or
composition of it or its debts under any law relating to bankruptcy,
insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors, or seeking an entry
of an order for relief or the appointment of a receiver, trustee or
other similar official for it or any substantial part of its property
or taking any action to authorize any of the foregoing or similar
actions. No assignee for the benefit of creditors, receiver,
liquidator, sequestrator, trustee in bankruptcy, sheriff or any other
officer of the court or official charged with taking over custody of
CUSTOMER's assets or business will have any right to continue the
performance of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Agreement, Orchid acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement
constitutes a

9.4 In the event this Agreement is terminated by CUSTOMER pursuant to the
provisions of paragraph 9.2 or 9.3, upon written notice from CUSTOMER,
Orchid will remove the SNPstream Instrument(s), at no cost to
CUSTOMER, in accordance with its Standard Terms and Conditions of
Removal set forth in attached Schedule 2.5. In addition Orchid shall
refund to CUSTOMER that portion of the then current Access Fee or
renewal fee, as the case may be, applicable, on a pro rata basis, to
the portion of the initial term or any renewal term of this Agreement,
as the case may be, from and after the effective date of any such
termination. This paragraph survives any termination or expiration of
this Agreement.
9.5 In the event this Agreement is terminated by Orchid pursuant to the
provisions of paragraph 9.2 or 9.3, upon written notice to CUSTOMER,
Orchid may remove the SNPstream Instrument, at CUSTOMER's expense, in
accordance with its Standard Terms and Conditions of Removal set forth
in attached Schedule 2.5; and, CUSTOMER will pay to Orchid, within
thirty (30) days of such termination, the early termination fee set
forth in the price schedule of attached Schedule 2.1.1. This paragraph
survives any termination or expiration of this Agreement.
9.6 Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement for any cause or
reason neither CUSTOMER nor Orchid will be released from any
obligation theretofore accrued. The parties' respective rights and
obligations under the following provisions shall survive pay
termination or expiration of this Agreement: Paragraphs 2.4.2, 2.6.1,
3.2.1, 3.2.5, 3.2.6, 4.3.3, 4.6, 5, 6, 8, 9.5, 9.6, 9.7, 10.2, 10.3
and 10.9.
10. Miscellaneous
10.1 The relationship of Orchid and CUSTOMER under this Agreement is that
of both licensor and licensee and seller and buyer. The provisions of
this Agreement may not be construed to create between Orchid and
CUSTOMER the relationship of principal and agent, joint venturers, co-
partners or any other similar relationship, the existence of which is
hereby denied by Orchid and CUSTOMER. Neither party hereto is liable
in any way for any engagement, obligation, liability, contract,
representation or warranty of the other party to or with any third
party. Orchid is not an agent for CUSTOMER and CUSTOMER is not an
agent for Orchid for any purpose whatsoever and each party has no
right or authority to assume or create any obligations, express or
implied, on behalf or in the name of the other party.
10.2 Orchid, in its performance of this Agreement, may delegate its
obligations or duties to one or more Authorized Representatives as
agent(s) for Orchid under this Agreement. However, no Authorized
Representative has the right or authority to make any representation
or warranty to CUSTOMER, or to assume or
16
create any obligations with or for CUSTOMER, whether express or
implied, on behalf or in the name of Orchid except as expressly set
forth in this Agreement. Notwithstanding any such delegation, Orchid
shall remain liable for the performance of such obligations and duties
and for the performance of any Authorized Representatives to which
Orchid may delegate performance of same.
10.3 During the term of this Agreement and for a period of one year
thereafter, neither Orchid nor CUSTOMER will actively solicit for
employment any of the other's technical personnel.
10.4 No waiver of any breach of any provision of this Agreement will
constitute a waiver of any prior, concurrent or subsequent breach of
the same or any other provision of this Agreement; and no waiver will
be effective unless in writing.
10.5 Any notice required or permitted under this Agreement will be deemed
to have been sufficiently provided and effectively made if sent by
facsimile and either hand-delivered or sent by overnight express
courier (e.g., Federal Express), signature required, and addressed to
the receiving party at its respective address as follows:

or such other address of which the receiving party has given notice

10.6 In the event that the performance of this Agreement or of an
obligation hereunder, other than the payment of money, is prevented,
restricted or interfered with by reason of any cause not within the
control of the respective party, and which could not by reasonable
diligence have been avoided by such party, the party so affected,
upon the giving of prompt notice to the other party, as to the nature
and probable duration of such event, is excused from such performance
to the extent and for the duration of such prevention, restriction or
interference, provided that
17
the party so affected uses its reasonable efforts to avoid or remove
such cause of non-performance and continues performance under this
Agreement whenever and to the extent such cause or causes are
removed. For the purpose of this paragraph 10.6, but without limiting
the generality hereof, the following will be considered as not being
within the control of a party: acts of God; acts or omissions of a
governmental agency or body; compliance with requests,
recommendations, rules, regulations, or orders of any governmental
authority or any officer, department, agency, or instrument thereof;
flood; storm; earthquake; fire; war; insurrection; riot; accidents;
acts of the public enemy; invasion; quarantine restrictions; strike;
labor lockout; differences with workmen; embargoes; delays or
failures in transportation; and acts of a similar nature.
10.7 If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal,
unenforceable or void, such will be without effect on the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or this
Agreement as a whole. Both parties will endeavor to replace the
invalid, illegal, unenforceable or void provision with a valid and
enforceable one which in its equitable effect is most consistent with
the prior provision.
10.8 The paragraph headings are for convenience only and cannot have any
effect on the interpretation or construction of this Agreement.
10.9 The laws of the State of New Jersey, excluding the principles of
conflicts of laws, govern this Agreement.
10.10 This Agreement is binding upon and inures to the benefit of the
heirs, successors and assigns of the parties hereto, provided that
this Agreement, in whole or in part, is not assignable by either
party without the prior written consent of the other party, such
consent not to be unreasonably withheld, except that Orchid may
assign this Agreement to an Affiliate of Orchid without any such
consent. As a condition precedent to any such permitted assignment,
the assignee shall agree, in writing, to be bound by the provisions
of this Agreement applicable to its assignor. Any effort to assign in
violation hereof is considered void. In the event of any assignment,
the assigning party must provide the other party with appropriate
documentation of the assignment.
10.11 Each party acknowledges that it has read this Agreement, understands
it, and agrees to be bound by its terms and further agrees that it
constitutes the complete and exclusive understanding between the
parties, which supersedes and merges all prior proposals,
understandings and all other agreements, oral and written, between
the parties regarding the subject matter of this Agreement; and no
party has relied on any representation not expressly set forth or
referred to in this Agreement.
10.12 No amendment, variation, waiver or modification of any of the terms
or provisions of this Agreement will be effected unless set forth in
writing,
18
specifically referencing this Agreement, and duly signed by an
authorized officer of the party to be bound thereby.
10.13 Except as expressly provided herein, nothing in this Agreement shall
create or imply any license or grant of rights to either party under,
or act as a waiver as of, any rights that the other party may have to
prevent infringement or misappropriation of any patents, patent
applications, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets, know how or
other intellectual property rights owned or controlled by such other
party or any of its Affiliates.
10.14 Except with the express written consent of a party in each instance,
neither party nor its Affiliates, officers or employees will at
anytime include such party's name (or that of any of its Affiliates,
shareholders, officers, directors, employees or personnel) in any
written material, marketing or advertising brochures, bids,
contracts, proposals, applications or otherwise, except as may be
required by law, or in any way represent or imply that such party or
its Affiliates, shareholders, officers, directors, employees or
personnel have endorsed the other party or its business.
10.15 This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of
which constitute one and the same legal instrument.
10.16 CUSTOMER and Orchid agree to execute, acknowledge, and deliver such
further instruments and to do all such other acts as may be necessary
or appropriate to effect the purpose and intent of this Agreement.
10.17 Each party hereby represents and warrants to the other that: (i)
such party is duly organized and validly existing under the laws of
the state of its incorporation and has full corporate power and
authority to enter into this Agreement and to carry out the
provisions hereof; (ii) such party has the requisite power and
authority and the legal right, and has taken all necessary actions on
its part, to enter into this Agreement and to perform its obligations
and grant the rights extended by it hereunder; (iii) this Agreement
has been duly executed and delivered on such party's behalf, is a
legal and valid obligation binding upon it and is enforceable in
accordance with its terms; (iv) the execution, delivery and
performance of this Agreement by such party do not conflict with any
agreement, instrument or understanding, oral or written, to which it
is a party or by which it may be bound, nor violate any law or
regulation of any court, governmental body or administrative or other
agency having authority over it; and (v) all necessary consents,
approvals and authorizations of all governmental authorities and

2.1.2 Standard Terms and Conditions of Delivery and Installation:
Orchid or its Authorized Representative will install the SNPstream instrument at
a site designated by the client. The client must have the designated location
for installation prequalified by Orchid or an Authorized Representative to meet
certain criteria defined as such:
. Space Requirements
The 3m ORCA will require a working surface space of 180" (457cm) x 90"
(229cm). It is also recommended to include a 36" (91cm) access space
around the entire system. The entire floor spacing surrounding the
system should be completely unobstructed from any plumbing,
electrical, conduits, chases, other mechanical features, etc.
. Air Requirements
The Multimek system requires clean, filtered air regulated to 85 psi to the
system for use. The air supply should terminate at the system with a
1/4" NPT FEMALE fitting. If house air is not available, a compressor
will be provided with the SNPstream Instrument.
. Electrical Requirements
The minimum requirement for this system is four 15Amp circuits, or three
20Amp circuits for power. The optimal case is four 20 amp circuits. For
each of the 6 optical tables required there should be a 6-outlet power
strip. Each of these outlet strips is then connected to the provided
circuits.

This system includes a tip-wash station, refillable reservoirs, waste
reservoirs, and plate washers. Use of any of these components will
require tubing routing and some regard to placement of the system, as
these require regular maintenance in the form of filling and/or
emptying.
Orchid or an Authorized Representative will perform installation of the
SNPstream Instrument after delivery. Installation will require
approximately 10 days to complete. Commissioning, verification of the
SNPstream functionality for GBA-based SNP genotyping, will occur within the
installation time frame and the installation shall not be considered
complete until such functionality is verified to CUSTOMER's reasonable
satisfaction.
