(e)                                  Six (6) Months Notice. Six (6) months after Licensee delivers written notice to the Company that it intends to exercise its right to manufacture (or have manufactured) the Licensed Product; provided, that in such event the Licensee shall purchase from the Company at its cost all of the Company^’s remaining inventory related to the manufacture of the Licensed Products which is not useable by the Company in the manufacture of the Company’s products for sale to customers other than the Licensee.

4.                                       Improvements.

(a)                                  Company Improvements. Subject to Licensee’s rights under paragraph 2 (“License Grant”), the Company shall own the entire right, title and interest to all Improvements developed by it. However, the Company shall, during the term hereof, promptly disclose such Improvements to Licensee and upon the request of Licensee, shall enter into good faith negotiations with Licensee for a license to such Improvements which are developed after the Exercise Date.

5.                                       Royalties.

(a)                                  Amount of Payment. Licensee shall pay to the Company a royalty of $25,000 for each Licensed Product manufactured by Licensee, or by a third party on Licensee’s behalf, which is sold or otherwise distributed (a “Royalty Bearing Product”) until such time as the Maximum Royalty Amount (as defined below) has been paid to the Company under this Agreement; provided, however, that the Maximum Royalty Amount shall be reduced by the full amount of any research and development costs which are paid for by Licensee under the terms of the Purchase Agreement in connection with the delivery of the Initial Units (as defined in the Purchase Agreement). The Maximum Royalty Amount shall be calculated as follows:  (i) if the Exercise Date occurs on or prior to the fifth anniversary of the date hereof, the Maximum Royalty Amount shall be $2,500,000 and (ii) if the Exercise Date occurs after the fifth anniversary of the date hereof, the Maximum Royalty Amount shall be $3,750,000, $1,500,000 of which shall be paid by the Licensee in a lump sum payment upon delivery by the Company of the Documentation. Upon payment in full for the royalties accrued during such period, the licenses granted under this Agreement shall become fully-paid and royalty-free.

(b)                                 Payment Terms. Royalties shall be paid within twenty (20) business days after the end of each quarter during which Licensee ships a Royalty Bearing Product to any user. Concurrently with the royalty payment, Licensee shall submit to the Company a written report for the preceding calendar quarter setting forth the total number of Royalty Bearing Products shipped during the quarter, and a calculation of the total royalties owed to the Company for such quarter.

(c)                                  Records. Licensee shall keep accurate records of the Royalty Bearing Products for a minimum of three (3) years from shipment in sufficient detail to enable the royalties payable to the Company to be determined accurately. To enable the Company from time to time to determine the accuracy of such records, Licensee shall permit an independent certified public accountant, acceptable to both parties, to inspect its pertinent records following reasonable notice and during reasonable business hours, not more frequently than annually. To protect Licensee’s confidential business information, the report of such accountant to the Company shall be confined solely to statements regarding the accuracy of royalty payments made to the Company by Licensee. Except as specified below, such inspections shall be at the expense of the Company. If such inspection discloses an underpayment of more than 5%, Licensee shall reimburse the Company for the cost of such inspection and shall promptly pay the Company all previously unpaid amounts plus interest thereon at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum or the highest interest rate permitted by law, whichever is lower. The Company’s inspection rights pursuant to this paragraph shall terminate two (2) years after the licenses granted under this Agreement become fully-paid and royalty-free.

(d)                                 Taxes. Licensee further agrees to pay any sales, use, excise, value added, or similar tax not based on the Company’s income which the Company may incur to any state in respect of this Agreement if the Company submits an invoice to Licensee on a timely basis reflecting the amount of any such tax. If a resale certificate or other certificates or document of exemption is required in order to exempt any transaction under this Agreement from sales or use tax liability, Licensee will promptly furnish such certificate or document to the Company.

6.                                       Duties of Company.

(a)                                  Delivery of Documentation. The Company agrees to furnish to Licensee all current versions of Documentation then existing within ten (10) business days after the Exercise Date; provided, however, that if the Licensee exercises its rights under subparagraph 3(e) (“Six Months Notice”) above, the Company will furnish the Documentation to Licensee at least sixty (60) days prior to the Exercise Date. If Documentation is provided to Licensee prior to the Exercise Date, the Company shall be required to provide any updates or modifications to such Documentation which are made prior to the Exercise Date within ten (10) business days after the Exercise Date.

(b)                                 Training. The Company will furnish help to Licensee in the form of transfer of the Licensed Rights and instruction in the manufacture of the Licensed Products by providing free of charge, 500 person-hours of a qualified person’s time for engineering know-how, manufacturing know-how, and service know-how, at times reasonably requested by Licensee during the first eighteen (18) months after the Exercise Date. In addition, during the first two (2) years after the Exercise Date, Licensee shall have the right to purchase from the Company additional consultation services at the Company’s standard engineering, manufacturing or service consultant rate in effect at the time of the request. At Licensee’s request, the Company will provide this training at Licensee’s premises, provided that Licensee will pay all reasonable transportation and living expenses for training at any facility which is more than fifty (50) miles from the Company’s principal place of business.

(c)                                  Visitation Rights. Upon reasonable advance notice during the first two (2) years after the Exercise Date and provided that Licensee’s manufacturing license under paragraph 2 (“License Grant”) remains in effect, the Company shall allow Licensee’s personnel to visit the Company’s place of business and discuss and inspect the Company’s method of manufacturing the Licensed Product and related matters concerning the technology transferred to Licensee hereunder.

7.                                       Rights Under Government Grants.

(a)                                  Subcontract of Research and Development. The Company has submitted a proposal entitled “Computer Mediated Stereotaxic Radiosurgery” to the Department of Health and Human Services for a Phase II Small Business Innovation Research Grant (the “SBIR Grant”). In addition, the Company is a Private Sector Participant along with Stanford University in a project entitled “Computer Mediated Stereotaxic Radiosurgery” which is being funded by a California Competitive Technology Grant (the “CCT Grant”). If the Company is awarded the SBIR Grant, it will subcontract to Licensee the maximum amount which it is entitled for research and development to be conducted under the SBIR Grant. In addition, the Company will use Licensee’s employees as consultants wherever possible and appropriate. The Company also agrees to consult with Licensee in the selection of equipment to be purchased with funds from the SBIR Grant and will transfer to Licensee, upon completion of the research and development, all computer equipment and related equipment purchased with the SBIR Grant, subject to the rights of the U.S. Government to such equipment under the SBIR Grant.

(b)                                 Inclusion in Licensed Rights. Any patent applications, copyrights, trade secrets or other intellectual property rights which result from the research and development under

5

the SBIR Grant and/or the CCT Grant and which directly relate to the manufacture of the Licensed Products shall be included in the definition of Licensed Rights.

(c)                                  Technology Transfer. The Company will transfer and assign to Licensee all right, title and interest which it acquires at any time in any patents, patent applications, copyrights, trade secrets or other intellectual property which results from the research and development conducted utilizing the SBIR Grant and/or the CCT Grant and is not directly related to the manufacture of the Licensed Products or other linear accelerator devices.

8.                                       Subcontracting. Licensee shall have the right to contract with a third party to manufacture all or any part of the Licensed Product for Licensee’s exclusive benefit so long as such subcontractor agrees to the same obligations and limitations as are imposed upon Licensee in the manufacture of the Licensed Product under this Agreement, including the Company’s termination rights set forth in paragraph 13 (“Termination”) hereof; provided, however, that if Licensee has exercised its rights under Paragraph 2 (“License Grant”) pursuant to Paragraph 3(c) (“Acquisition of Company”) or Paragraph 3(e) (“Six (6) Months Notice”), Licensee shall not be entitled, without the prior written consent of the Company, to use any subcontractor to manufacture the Licensed Products which manufactures X-Band linear accelerators for the industrial market. Licensee agrees that a breach by its subcontractor of the obligations and limitations of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a breach by Licensee under this Agreement.

9.                                       Indemnification.

(a)                                  Infringement of Proprietary Rights. In the event that a third party makes any claim, which the Licensee reasonably believes to be valid, that (i) the manufacture, reproduction, use, sale or other distribution of the Licensed Product or any part or component thereof, and/or (ii) the use, reproduction or distribution of the Documentation infringes, violates or misappropriates the intellectual property rights of any third party, the Company will use its best efforts to modify the design of the Licensed Product at no cost to the Licensee so that is no longer infringing and continues to comply with the Specifications in all materials respects; provided, however, that this obligation will not cover any claim that the Licensed Product infringes any third party’s rights as used in combination with any software or hardware not supplied by the Company, if that claim could have been avoided by the use of the Licensed Product alone or with other software or hardware. In the event that the Company is unable, after using its best efforts, to modify the design of the Licensed Product so that it is no longer infringing, Licensee shall be entitled to offset against any portion of the Maximum Royalty Amount which remained unpaid as of the date on which Licensee gives the Company notice of the third party claim, any royalties or lump sum payments made by Licensee to the party claiming that the Licensed Product infringes its intellectual property rights.

(b)                                 Breach of Representations and Warranties. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold Licensee and its affiliates harmless from any loss, cost, damage or expense (collectively a “Loss”) suffered by Licensee and/or its affiliates to the extent such Loss arises from a breach of the Company’s representations and warranties contained in Section 10 (“Representations and Warranties”) of this Agreement.

(c)                                  Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or condition of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable for any reason, the remainder of the provisions shall continue in full force and effect, and the parties agree to substitute a valid provision with the same intent and economic effect.

(d)                                 Choice of Law. The validity, interpretation, and performance of this Agreement shall be controlled by, and construed under, the laws of the State of California, without giving effect to the principles of conflict of laws.

AMENDMENT

Made and entered into this 15th day of April, 1996, by and between SCHONBERG RESEARCH CORPORATION, a California corporation, the name of which was previously Schonberg Radiation Corporation, having its principal place of business at 3300 Keller Street, Building #101, Santa Clara, California 95054 (sometimes called “SRC” or “Company”), and ACCURAY INCORPORATED, a California corporation which was the general partner in and is the successor to Accuray Associates, a California limited partnership, having its principal office at 570 Del Rey Avenue, Sunnyvale, California 94087 (sometimes called “Accuray,” “Buyer” or “Licensee”).

The agreements between the parties which are amended hereby are:

Manufacturing License and Technology Transfer Agreement dated January 28, 1991 between Schonberg Radiation Corporation and Accuray Associates (hereinafter called the “License”) and,

OEM Purchase Agreement between Schonberg Radiation Corporation and Accuray Associates dated January 28, 1991 (hereinafter called the “Purchase Agreement.”)

The License and the Purchase Agreement are sometimes referred to herein as the “Agreements.”  Initially capitalized terms herein are intended to have the meanings given them in the Agreements.

RECITALS

Under the Agreements, SRC has built (or is in the process of building) six Licensed Products which have been (or are in the process of being) incorporated into six frameless stereotactic radiosurgery devices (variously called the “Neurotron 1000” or the “CyberKnife”) assembled and sold to providers of medical treatment by Accuray.

Unforeseen difficulties have caused delays and performance problems for the parties.

While their expectations have changed in some respects, the parties nevertheless wish to maintain a business relationship between them as described in the Agreements, but to amend the Agreements to be consistent with their experience over the past five-plus years and with their changed expectations.

AGREEMENT

In consideration of the foregoing, and of the promises contained herein, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

1.                                       In the first paragraph on page 1 of both Agreements, “Schonberg Radiation Corporation” is amended to read “Schonberg Research Corporation,” and “Accuray Associates, a California limited partnership having its principal place of business in Santa Clara, California” is amended to read “Accuray Incorporated, a California corporation having its principal place of business in Sunnyvale, California.”
