FORM OF OEM SUPPLY AND PURCHASE AGREEMENT

          This OEM Supply and Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”) is made as of January 1, 2008 (the “Effective Date”) by and between Nihon Kohden Corporation with offices at 31-4 Nishiochiai 1-chome, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo 161-8560 Japan (hereinafter referred to as “NK”), and Cardiac Science Corporation, formerly known as Cardiac Science Inc., with offices at 3303 Monte Villa Parkway, Bothell, Washington, USA 98021 (hereinafter referred to as “CSC”) (NK and CSC each being a “Party”, and collectively the “Parties”).

RECITALS

          CSC is a manufacturer of various medical devices including, without limitation, an automated external defibrillator known as the AED 9231 (the “AED 9231”) and Replacement Electrodes referred to collectively as “Products” as defined in Appendix 1 below which, among other things, externally defibrillate a human heart.

          NK develops, manufactures, distributes and sells various medical devices and systems including patient monitoring systems and defibrillators.

          NK and CSC previously entered into an OEM Supply and Purchase Agreement, dated March 1, 2002, as amended by Amendment No. 1 dated March 16, 2005 (the “Prior Agreement”) for the purchase and sale of Products. The term of the Prior Agreement expires on December 31, 2007. NK desires to continue to purchase from CSC, and CSC desires to continue to sell to NK AED 9231s and Replacement Electrodes made by CSC for resale under one or more of NK’s trademarks or brand names. CSC Products sold under the NK trademark or brand name will be sold exclusively by NK.

          NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants hereinafter contained, and other consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, it is hereby agreed between the parties as follows:

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

1. GRANT OF RIGHTS

          1.1 License. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, CSC grants to NK the non-assignable and non-transferable right and license to:

               (a) Resell and sub-license the NK-branded AED 9231s to end-users or to other third parties for sale;

               (b) Resell and sub-license the Replacement Electrodes to end-users or to other third parties for sale and sub-license to end-users for use only with AED 9231s;

          (c) Use CSC Marks in connection with the marketing, resale and sublicensing of Products, pursuant to CSC’s prior written approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld; and

          (d) Resell and sub-license the Products as provided herein under NK’s own Marks and using NK’s own labeling and packaging; provided, however, that NK maintains all CSC Marks and other proprietary notices contained on the Products.

     1.2 Exclusive Appointment. CSC appoints NK as it exclusive distributor to market, sell and distribute the AED 9231 to end user customers in Japan during the Term. Throughout the Term, NK shall use its best efforts to market, sell and distribute AED 9231 in Japan. NK may supplement, but not replace, its marketing, sales and distribution of AED 9231s in Japan with the marketing, sales and distribution of AED 1200s that contain circuit boards purchased from CSC under the OEM Supply and Purchase Agreement dated March 31, 2005 or any successor agreement (the “Parts Agreement”). For the avoidance of doubt, the AED 1200 is referred to in the Parts Agreement as the AED 1x.

     1.3 Enforcement. NK shall enforce its obligations under this Agreement with respect to sublicenses granted by NK pursuant to this Agreement and, upon the request of CSC, shall enforce, at NK’s cost, the rights of CSC with respect to any such sublicense and shall cooperate with CSC, at NK’s cost, in any action by CSC to enforce its rights with respect to any such sublicense, including by providing to CSC all information and assistance that CSC considers reasonably useful to pursue such action. NK’s sale, distribution or other transfer of Products to a distributor or a third party for resale to an End-User shall not prevent CSC from enforcing its rights pursuant to this section.

     1.4 Reservation of Rights. Except as expressly provided herein, CSC does not grant to NK any license or Intellectual Property Rights, whether by implication, estoppel or otherwise in and to the Products, CSC Marks and CSC Confidential Information. NK shall not: (a) reverse engineer, decompile, or otherwise tamper with the Products; (b) permit any third party including distributors or end user customers to do any of the foregoing.

2. SCOPE OF THE OEM SUPPLY AND PURCHASE AGREEMENT

     2.1 For the term of this Agreement, on the terms and conditions provided herein, CSC agrees to sell and NK agrees to purchase the Products more closely specified in Appendix 1 hereto in such quantities as NK orders from time to time pursuant to Section 3.

     2.2 CSC shall supply to NK Products that conform to the technical specifications defined in Appendix 3 hereto and in accordance with the warranty in Section 9.1.

     2.3 Parties shall cooperate and provide to each other in a timely fashion all information necessary to facilitate the OEM version of the AED 9231s.

     2.4 NK agrees to pay CSC for any and all non-recurring engineering (“NRE”) costs and other expenses associated with any modifications to the Products requested by NK including the NK color and labeling under one or more of NK’s trademarks or brand names and any modifications to the casing, internal electronics, software or interfaces of the AED 9231. The Parties will agree in advance as to the nature and the amount of the NRE costs and expenses associated with the aforementioned modifications.

     2.5 All artwork, packages and labels (if any) prepared by CSC in connection with the NK name shall be sent to NK for approval.

     2.6 For convenient reference, certain of the capitalized terms used in this Agreement is defined in Appendix 4.

     2.7 During the Term, NK shall not, directly or indirectly (e.g., through any Affiliate or distributor), promote, market, sell or distribute any product that directly competes with the AED 9231. However, for purposes of this Section 2.7 any automated external defibrillator with a lower specification than AED 9231, including but not limited to an AED 1200 that contains circuit boards purchased from CSC under the Parts Agreement and any automated external defibrillator equivalent or similar to the AED 1200, shall not be considered to be a product that competes with the AED 9231.

     2.8 NK shall not, directly or indirectly (e.g., through any Affiliate or distributor), promote, market, sell or distribute any AED 9231 or AED 1200 in North America.

3. TERM AND TERMINATION

Such cooperation and assistance may include, without limitation, the transfer of any such approvals held by NK to CSC or its designee.

          (g) Neither party shall by reason of the termination or expiration of this Agreement in accordance with its terms be liable to the other for compensation, reimbursement or damages on account of lost prospective profits or anticipated sales, or on account of expenditures, investments, leaves or commitments by the other or on any other account.

     7.5 Failure to Pay Duties. NK shall bear all applicable taxes (such as sales, use or similar taxes); all customs, duties, and similar charges; and all personal property taxes assessable on Products after delivery to the carrier at CSC’s plant. In the event of NK’s failure to pay any amounts due CSC within the time herein provided, CSC may, in addition to other remedies available to it, cease acceptance and /or delivery of orders for Products from NK until such time as NK’s payments are current and may thereafter condition acceptance and delivery of future orders on such other or additional payment terms as it shall, in its discretion, determine.

     7.6 Inspection.

CSC agrees to evaluate such recommendation in good faith. CSC agrees to take all appropriate measures in order to ensure compliance of its sub-suppliers with the foregoing. Any circumstance which might lead to modification or cancellation of CSC’s ISO quality system certificate(s) or status as an FDA registered manufacturer in good standing, shall be immediately informed to NK in writing.
