If any materials or supplies provided by BUYER are destroyed or damaged by SELLER as a result of SELLER’s negligence or intentional misconduct, then SELLER shall be responsible for replacing the destroyed or damaged materials or paying BUYER the replacement value of the damaged or destroyed materials and any costs or expenses to accelerate the supply chain for such materials or supplies. For the avoidance of doubt, each party shall retain title to all materials and supplies while they are in the other party’s facility.

4. EXCLUSIVITY

4.1 SELLER agrees to manufacture and supply Exclusive Products (as defined below) exclusively to BUYER, as and when BUYER may order the same, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any applicable Statements of Work. During the Term and for [***] thereafter, SELLER agrees not to manufacture or supply any Exclusive Product for itself, for any of its affiliates, or for any third party, or to manufacture, sell or supply any Exclusive Product to any third party without BUYER’s prior written consent. For the purposes of this Section 4.1, “Exclusive Products” means superconducting magnets for synchrocyclotrons for proton therapy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the exclusivity restrictions set forth in this Section 4.1 shall terminate if BUYER: (a) fails to take delivery of the Minimum System Quantities (as defined below) [***], and such failure is not due to SELLER’s failure to perform its obligations hereunder; or (b) BUYER is in material default of this Agreement and BUYER fails to cure such default within [***] of BUYER’s receipt of written notice of such default from SELLER. “Minimum System Quantities” means (a) four (4) Systems in calendar year 2012, and (b) six (6) Systems in each of calendar years 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2016.

4.2 During the term of this Agreement and subject to the provisions of Section 4.3 below, BUYER shall not outsource or secure from any other vendor the Exclusive Products. BUYER agrees that Seller shall be the exclusive supplier of the Exclusive Products aside from provisions below for partial supply by BUYER.

4.3 Subject to BUYER having sufficient orders for Mevion S250 systems to support BUYER’s purchase of the Minimum System Quantities, BUYER agrees to purchase the Minimum System Quantities from SELLER. In addition, during the Term and subject to the remainder of this Section 4.3, BUYER agrees to purchase Systems exclusively from SELLER, and not to manufacture Systems for sale nor have Systems manufactured by a third party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the exclusivity restrictions set forth in this Section 4.3 shall terminate if (a) SELLER fails to deliver any Product within [***] following the applicable Delivery Date for such Product, (b) [***] or (c) SELLER is unable or unwilling to supply the Minimum System Quantities. In addition, the exclusivity restrictions set forth in this Section 4.3 shall not apply with respect to Systems in excess of the Minimum System Quantities, if BUYER has forecasted such excess Systems and SELLER has notified BUYER of Seller’s inability or unwillingness to provide such excess Systems. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall restrict BUYER from developing internal manufacturing capabilities for System so that BUYER is capable of manufacturing Systems in the event the exclusivity restrictions herein do not prohibit such manufacture. In the event that (a) BUYER has not been relieved of its exclusivity obligations set forth in Section 4.3, and (b) BUYER delivers a MEVION S250 to a customer which includes a superconducting magnet system that was manufactured by BUYER (and not by SELLER), BUYER agrees to pay to SELLER a fee of $[***] for each such delivered MEVION S250 (the “Magnet Manufacturing Fee”). The payment obligations set forth in this Section 4.4 shall terminate upon the earlier to occur of (i) the date that BUYER pays to SELLER $5,000,000 of aggregate Magnet Manufacturing Fees hereunder, (ii) the date that BUYER has purchased the Deposit Materials in accordance with Section 18, and (iii) expiration or termination of this Agreement.

4.4 BUYER shall maintain accurate shipping records in sufficient detail to permit the identification of superconducting magnet systems manufactured by BUYER for which a Magnet Manufacturing Fee is payable. Upon reasonable prior written notice to BUYER, an independent accountant selected by SELLER and reasonably acceptable to BUYER and not paid in whole or in part by a contingent fee arrangement, shall have reasonable access during normal business hours, but not more often that once in any calendar year, to BUYER’s shipping records as may reasonably be necessary to conduct a review for the purpose of verifying the accuracy of BUYER’s payment of Magnet Manufacturing Fees hereunder. Prior to commencing any such inspection, the accountant shall enter into a reasonable and customary confidentiality agreement with BUYER which prohibits the disclosure of any information, except as provided in said confidentiality agreement, relating to BUYER to any person or entity, except that such accountant may issue a report to SELLER, the sole purpose of which shall be to report to SELLER whether BUYER complied with the payment provisions of Section 4.5 above.

SELLER shall sell the Products to BUYER at the purchase prices set forth on the applicable Statement of Work (as such prices may be adjusted hereunder, “Purchase Price(s)”). Beginning on the first anniversary of the Effective Date and each anniversary of the Effective Date thereafter, the Purchase Prices shall be subject to adjustment, both upwards and downwards, as the case may be, by a percentage amount not to exceed the percentage change in (a) the BEAMA Index (“BEAMA”) for work performed in the U.K. or Europe, or (b) the U.S. Department of Labor Producer Price Index (“PPI”) for work performed in the United States. The percentage change in the BEAMA and PPI shall be based on the average of the monthly values of the previous twelve months for which BEAMA and PPI data is available as the parties determine the price adjustments, compared to the BEAMA and PPI data for the same twelve months a year prior. In addition, in the event that extraordinary and unforeseen circumstances materially impact the costs of raw materials in the marketplace for reasons that are outside of SELLER’s reasonable control, SELLER may propose an adjustment in the Purchase Prices that exceeds [***]. Upon BUYER’s receipt of such proposal, the parties shall promptly discuss in good faith an equitable adjustment to the Purchase Price. In the event the parties are unable to agree to such adjustment, the matter shall be addressed in accordance with the arbitration provision set forth in Section 22.5. The adjusted prices shall be effective as set forth in Section 5.4. Purchase Prices shall be honored by SELLER for delivery to all BUYER sites or locations, and if authorized by BUYER, to any BUYER-authorized subcontractors or customers.

5.2 All-Inclusive

The Purchase Price for each Product shall be all-inclusive and represents the sole and exclusive consideration to SELLER hereunder for the Products or otherwise, except for (i) any freight and insurance costs for which BUYER is responsible under Section 8 (collectively, “Freight Charges”), and (ii) certain taxes assessed on the Purchase Prices for which BUYER is responsible under Section 5.3. BUYER shall not be billed for, nor shall BUYER have any obligation to pay, any charge or amount not specifically authorized in BUYER’s duly issued Purchase Order.

5.3 Taxes

BUYER shall pay and be responsible for all taxes that are measured directly by the Purchase Price payments made by BUYER to SELLER for the Products hereunder and which SELLER is legally required to collect and pay over to tax authorities. The taxes for which BUYER is responsible hereunder shall include sales, use and excise taxes, but shall exclude, without limitation, SELLER’s franchise or business taxes, taxes based on SELLER’s net income or gross receipts, and taxes from which BUYER is exempt by law as shown by a valid tax exemption certificate, when such a certificate is required.

5.4 Effective Date of Purchase Price Changes

All changes in Purchase Prices shall be effective only for new Purchase Orders for Products.

5.5 Process Improvement

The parties shall jointly manage process improvements for the manufacturing process for the Products. The parties shall conduct an annual review for material and labor cost reductions, lead time reduction, and inventory reduction, and SELLER shall keep a material and labor cost breakdown containing all particulars that may be necessary for the purpose of performing such reviews. The parties shall make appropriate personnel available for such annual review, including operations management, procurement, and planning resources for such party.

6.2 The first [***] of each forecast (the “Confirmed Firm Order Period”) shall be binding on BUYER. BUYER shall issue Purchase Orders for each System within the [***] lead time for Systems. As part of the forecast and firm order detail issued quarterly, BUYER shall confirm the orders already specified for delivery during the Confirmed Firm Order Period, and reconcile those firm orders in the second quarter of the Confirmed Firm Order Period to the previously forecast Systems.

6.3 In each forecast following the initial forecast, BUYER may increase or decrease the aggregate quantity of Systems specified for delivery during the [***] of the forecast (The “Mid-Term Forecast Period”) from the amount set forth in corresponding calendar period in the immediately preceding forecast by a net total of one System without incurring any penalty or additional liability hereunder. In the event that BUYER decreases the net quantity of Systems set forth in the Mid-Term Forecast Period of a forecast by [***] Systems from the quantity forecasted for corresponding period in the immediately preceding forecast, BUYER agrees to pay to SELLER a rescheduling fee of [***] (the “Rescheduling Fee”) for [***]. In the event that BUYER increases the aggregate quantity of Systems specified for delivery during the Mid-Term Forecast Period by [***] over the amount set forth for the corresponding calendar period in the immediately preceding forecast, SELLER shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide, but shall not be obligated to provide, such excess quantities of Systems.

6.4 The quantity of Systems set forth in a forecast for the period following the Initial and Mid-Term Forecast Period [***] (the “Long Term Forecast Period”) shall be non-binding estimates only and BUYER shall have no obligation to purchase the quantity of Systems forecast for the Long Term Forecast Period.

6.5 Rescheduling Purchase Orders

Within [***] of the scheduled delivery date for a Product as set forth in the BUYER’s Purchase Order (the “Delivery Date”), but prior to the date that the SELLER has shipped such Product, BUYER may, free of charge and once per each such Product, reschedule the Delivery Date by delivering notice to Seller (delivered electronically, by facsimile, or by mail) to another date that is within [***] following the original Delivery Date. Rescheduling the delivery of a Product to a date that is earlier than the Delivery Date set forth in the Purchase Order is subject to SELLER’s written consent. The new Delivery Date specified in BUYER’s notice (or as agreed to by SELLER, if the proposed rescheduled date is earlier than the Delivery Date set forth in the Purchase Order) shall then become the new Delivery Date for the applicable Product, and the Purchase Order shall in all other respects remain in full force and effect.

10. SELLER SAFETY STOCK

10.1 In the event that BUYER is capable of supplying SELLER with sufficient conductor material for SELLER to manufacture two excess Systems [***] (each, a “Surplus System”), BUYER shall promptly notify SELLER of same. BUYER shall supply such conductor material to SELLER, and SELLER shall manufacture the Surplus Systems at SELLER’s expense in accordance with a schedule to be discussed and agreed upon by the parties in good faith. Following completion of the manufacture of the first Surplus System, SELLER shall ship such Surplus System, at SELLER’s expense, along with a complete set of drawings, manufacturing documents and other data and information that are at least sufficient to enable a reasonably skilled manufacturer in the trade to manufacture Systems [***] (including part drawings, bills of material, assembly, test, and inspection process travelers and data collection forms) (the “System Manufacturing Information”), to the facility of SELLER’s wholly owned subsidiary, Everson Tesla Incorporated (“Everson Tesla”), located at Everson Tesla Incorporated, 615 Daniels Road, Nazareth, PA 18064. SELLER shall be solely responsible for storage costs and risk of damage and loss of the Surplus System while in transit to and stored at Everson Tesla’s facility. The second System manufactured pursuant to this Section 10 shall be stored in a suitable container at SELLER’s manufacturing facility located at Unit 1, Water Lane, Storrington, RH20 3EA, United Kingdom. Nothing in this section shall preclude Tesla and Mevion from mutually agreeing to supply conductor and produce cold masses or systems in addition to the two safety stock in order to maximize efficiency of the production process.

10.2 Production of Surplus Systems is of secondary importance to production demands, and shall be done without impacting the System production and/or delivery schedule. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Surplus Systems will be utilized by BUYER on a first in, first out basis as follows. Provided there is a Surplus System at the Everson Tesla Facility in Nazareth, PA, the BUYER shall take delivery of a regularly forecasted system from that location. SELLER shall replace that system with a system already in stock at SELLER’s facility in StorrmgtoiLUK. SELLER shall then replace the Surplus System at the Storrington location in no more than 2 months to provide for the balance of 2 Surplus Systems to continue. SELLER shall organize production and BUYER shall supply sufficient conductor to enable the first surplus system to be available in Nazareth, PA within one year of signing this agreement.

10.3 Notwithstanding the foregoing, SELLER’s obligations with respect to maintenance of Surplus Systems shall terminate as set forth in Section 17.

hereto as Attachment V. In the event that either SELLER or BUYER requests a design change to a Product and SELLER reasonably determines that, as a result of such design change, an adjustment is required to the proposed delivery schedule set forth in a Purchase Order or Statement of Work, as applicable, the parties shall discuss in good faith, agree on such adjustment and modify the Purchase Order or Statement of Work, as applicable, accordingly.

11.2 SELLER shall not change material, components, manufacturing process, dimensions, tolerances, or specifications for the Products without prior written consent of BUYER, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. In all cases, SELLER shall provide BUYER with at least [***] written notice (or such longer period as agreed to by the parties) in advance of SELLER’s proposed implementation of any modification, and shall continue to manufacture unmodified Products until such time as BUYER approves of the proposed change. BUYER retains sole discretion to accept or reject proposed design changes. For the purposes of this Agreement, a Product shall be “compatible” if it shall continue to perform all significant functions of the Product before such modification when used in conjunction with Existing Systems, without any modification to such Existing Systems. SELLER shall assure that all Products that are modified after the Effective Date (“Modified Product(s)”) shall be “compatible” (as defined herein) in such modified form with all hardware and software utilized by BUYER in conjunction with such Modified Products (including monitoring software) prior to the modification thereof (collectively, “Existing Systems”).

11.3 Notwithstanding Section 11.2, if a supplier of SELLER is no longer able or willing to supply to SELLER materials or components as the case may be, SELLER shall notify BUYER of the same and SELLER shall be permitted to secure a different supplier with the consent of the BUYER, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

12.1 Shipping Condition

SELLER shall ship all Products to BUYER in new condition. SELLER shall fill each Purchase Order in accordance with its terms and the provisions hereof, except as otherwise expressly provided herein

12.2 Inspection; Acceptance

(a) Before shipping any Product, SELLER shall test the Product in accordance with testing and quality assurance procedures to be mutually agreed to by the parties in writing (the “Testing Procedures”) to ensure that such Product is free from defects and conforms to the applicable Specifications. Any Product that is not free from defects or does not conform to the applicable Specifications is referred to herein as a “Defective Product.” SELLER shall notify BUYER [***] of performing any Testing Procedures so that a BUYER representative has the opportunity to be present at SELLER’s facility to observe such Testing Procedures. At or before shipment of any Product, SELLER shall furnish the BUYER with a certificate, in form and substance

reasonably satisfactory to the BUYER, to the effect that SELLER has performed the Testing Procedures on such Product and did not identify any defects or nonconformities to the Specifications (“Initial Acceptance”). If the Testing Procedures establish that the Product is a Defective Product, BUYER may (i) elect to take delivery of the Product and equitably reduce the Purchase Price by a mutually agreed upon amount [***]; or (ii) require SELLER to promptly replace or correct the Defective Product. SELLER shall document a corrective action for all rejected Defective Products. For any Defective Products that are manufactured using BUYER provided materials or supplies, SELLER is responsible for reimbursement of BUYER, or recovering the BUYER materials or supplies in a method to be approved by BUYER. BUYER agrees that there will be no hold-back from any future payments for a Product regarding a prior Defective Product.

(b) Upon receipt of a Product, BUYER shall have a period of up to [***] from shipment to test (through installation, inspection, or use thereof) the Product to confirm that such Product, as delivered, is free from defects and conforms to the applicable Specifications. BUYER shall notify SELLER as soon as practicable whether or not such Product is free from defects and conforms to the applicable Specifications. If BUYER tests the Product during such [***] period, “Final Acceptance” shall be deemed to occur when (i) BUYER’s delivery of notice to SELLER confirming that the PRODUCT complies with the Specifications, (ii) or, if BUYER reasonably determines that the Product does not conform to the Specifications, the date that such non-conformity is remedied pursuant to Section 13.2. If, however, BUYER does not test the PRODUCT during such [***] period, or does not notify SELLER that such PRODUCT does or does not conform to the Specifications during such [***] period, “Final Acceptance” shall be deemed to have occurred upon the expiration of such [***] period.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Intellectual Property” shall mean all patents, patent applications, all provisional, divisional, continuations, renewals, continuations-in-part, re-examinations, patents of addition, supplementary protection certificates, extensions, letters of patent, registration or confirmation patents and reissues with respect to any patents described in the foregoing clauses, any know-how, data, technology, copyrights, industrial property and technical information.

For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing license grant does not provide BUYER with any rights under SELLER’s Intellectual Property to manufacture any products other than Products, and does not permit BUYER to sublicense or otherwise transfer any such rights to any third party (other than a third party that is manufacturing Products on a contract manufacture basis as BUYER’s agent for sale to BUYER.) The foregoing license does not provide BUYER with any rights to enforce any of SELLER’s Intellectual Property against any third party or to prosecute or otherwise control SELLER’s maintenance of its Intellectual Property.

Shocklog Setup Procedure

[Edit by BDL to correct a couple of points — 9th March 2011]

Scope

The following procedure details the process for mounting, setting parameters and starting the ShockLog instruments for monitoring shipment of the Still River Systems superconducting magnet system.

Procedure

  1. Install the Shocklog Software application onto personal computer (PC) according to instructions from Shocklog User Manual RD298 and with license number provided in LicenseCode.txt file.

 

  2. Install a new battery into RD298 shocklog according to instructions from Shocklog User Manual. Note: Alkaline batteries provide 1 month of operation but Send, Clear and Reset, and Download operations should be performed only once. Write the installation date on the battery with indelible marker pen.

 

  3. Mount the ShockLog to the shipping frame using rubber isolation mounting hardware provided with the ShockLog and in the locations with a matching ShockLog serial number.

 

  4. Connect the Shocklog (connector ‘B’) to the PC using the serial cable supplied with the Shocklog according to instructions from Shocklog User Manual.

 

  5. Start the Shocklog software application and press button ‘2’ (if not greyed-out) to establish communications with and adjust the setup of the attached ShockLog. If button ‘2’ is greyed-out, first press ‘3’ to adjust serial communications settings to establish communication to Shocklog per instructions in the Shocklog User Manual.

[***]

 

  6. Check that recorded data is not required because the next step will erase the data and the setup configuration.

 

  7. Check the system clock is correctly on the PC that is being used because the next step will erase the data and the setup configuration.

 

  8. Clear the data and reset the ShockLog by clicking the “Clear and reset to defaults” button on the Download tab.

[***]

 

  10. Set the clock on ShockLog instrument by clicking the “Set Clock” button on the Download tab.

Nothing in this Clause 11.17 will exclude any liability if such misrepresentation was made fraudulently.

 

11.18 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument.

 

11.19 Survival. Clauses 6 (Term and Termination), 7 (General Indemnity), 8 (Warranties), 9 (Confidential Information), 10 (Limitation of Liability), and 11 (General) of this Agreement, shall survive termination of this Agreement or any Exhibit attached hereto together with any other clauses which should, by implication survive termination.
