It will assess the patient's disease condition at intake and at monthly intervals over six (6) months using a quality of life questionnaire.  The Asthma App is intended for clinical research use only and will be given away for free in the Apple Store and is intended to pioneer a new approach to performing clinical studies on a very large scale at low cost by leveraging the power of mobile applications for cost-effective patient recruiting, e-consenting, and study participation.  This project is part of a relationship with Apple, Inc. and the Parties have entered into a three-party Framework and Source Code License Agreement by and between Mount Sinai, LifeMap, and Apple, Inc. effective February 16, 2015 whereby the Parties provide Apple, Inc with specifications to build an iOS application layer focused on asthma and Apple, Inc provides the Parties with access to a third-party coding contractor and access to Apple Inc.’s proprietary framework(s) of health and fitness research-related application programming interfaces for the iOS operating system and proprietary, content-neutral implementation software.  The Parties acknowledge and agree that the posting of the Asthma App in the Apple Store for the purposes of clinical research in accordance with the project described in this Attachment A-1 does not constitute commercial use and LifeMap does not require a commercial license in accordance with Exhibit E to Mount Sinai’s interest in and to the Asthma App for such clinical research.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties acknowledge and agree that any use other than the foregoing of the Asthma App by LifeMap would require such commercial license to Mount Sinai’s interest in and to the Asthma App.”
