1. DEFINITIONS

1.1. “Affiliate” of a Party shall mean any corporation or other business entity directly or indirectly owned or controlled by a Party through ownership of more than twenty-five percent (25%).

1.3. “Closing Date” shall mean the date that is ninety (90) days after the Effective Date, or such earlier date as the Parties mutually agree.

1.6. “Licensed Use” shall mean the right to make, manufacture, and have made, use and sell the Product, the Technology, the Patents and the Trademark, as applicable, pursuant to Sections 2.1-2.4.

1.7. “Net Sales” shall mean gross sales of Product, less transportation charges, insurance, taxes and other governmental charges, normal and customary trade, quantity and cash discounts, and allowances or credits to customers.

1.8. “Patents” shall mean all patents and patent applications related to the Product or to the Licensed Use of the Product, in existence as of the Effective Date, and any divisions, re-issues, continuations, and continuations-in-part of their equivalents, and any foreign equivalents thereof that may or may not yet have been filed. Patents shall also include any patents or patent applications filed by MGI before or during the Term, which disclose improvements made to the Product, use of Product, or methods of manufacturing Product, as described in Section 2.4.

Exhibit B to this Agreement lists all known MGI owned and licensed Patents related to the Product or to the Licensed Use of the Product, filed on or before the Closing Date, which are relevant to Territories One and Two. If the contents of Exhibit B change between the Effective Date and the Closing Date, MGI shall update Exhibit B, which updated version shall become part of this Agreement.

1.9. “Product” shall mean “MyHPV Kit™” and any improvements made solely to the specific “MyHPV Kit™” system at anytime before or during the Term. “MyHPV Kit™” is an HPV chip diagnostic test kit, as described in the license agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A, to which MGI has an exclusive worldwide license, excluding North Korea and South Korea, and to which MGI has granted AMDL a right to the Licensed Use of the Product in Territory One and Territory Two.

2.2. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, MGI also grants to AMDL, during the Term, an Exclusive sublicense to the Licensed Use of the Product, Patents, Trademark and Technology for Territory Two.

2.3. AMDL will not directly or indirectly manufacture, make, have made, market, sell or distribute the Product (a) outside the Territories or (b) inside the Territories for use other than the Licensed Use, in each case without prior written consent from MGI.

2.4. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, AMDL acknowledges that MGI owns and shall continue to own the Product, the Patents, Technology and the Trademark worldwide. The sub-license that MGI is granting to AMDL pursuant to this Agreement does not constitute a sale by MGI to AMDL of MGI’s ownership interests in the Product, the Patents, Technology and the Trademark within or without Territories One and Two. If, during the term of this Agreement, MGI materially develops or otherwise materially acquires any modifications to the Product or methods of manufacturing the Product, such modifications shall be the sole and exclusive property of MGI, and shall be included within the scope of Product as defined in Article 1 of this Agreement.

Sixty (60) days after the Effective Date, AMDL shall remit to MGI a third non-refundable ten thousand dollar ($10,000) deposit. This initial aggregate thirty thousand dollar ($30,000) deposit is non-refundable and represents AMDL’s payment in exchange for its right to perform due diligence between the Effective Date and the Closing Date. On the Closing Date AMDL shall remit to MGI an additional non-refundable twenty thousand dollar ($20,000) deposit. AMDL shall pay MGI the final two hundred thousand dollars ($200,000) of the initial license fee on or before the date that is ninety (90) days after the Closing Date.

(b) At any time during the first ninety (90) days from the Effective Date, AMDL shall have the unconditional right to terminate the Agreement based on the findings of its due diligence investigation; provided that if AMDL elects to so terminate, AMDL shall expressly inform MGI in writing of its intent at anytime up to and including the Closing Date, at which point this Agreement shall terminate; if AMGL does not so notify MGI, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect through the remainder of the Term, unless otherwise terminated as provided herein. In the event of such an early termination by AMDL, all license fees paid will remain non-refundable and all the Parties’ costs in connection with their due diligence will remain the responsibility of the Party incurring such costs.

3.2. In consideration for the license granted hereunder, and in addition to the license fees due under Section 3.1 above, AMDL shall pay MGI the following royalty fees in U.S. Dollars:

(a) During the term of the Agreement, a royalty fee of fifteen percent (15%) on the Net Sales of Product in Territory One and Two, until such time as royalty fee payments reach a total of seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars ($750,000). The payment of royalty fees on Net Sales shall be payable within thirty (30) days of the end of each calendar quarter. AMDL shall have the right to prepay any and all such royalty fees and shall have the right to deduct such prepayment from future royalty payments as required under this Agreement.

(b) Once AMDL has paid MGI the seven hundred and fifty thousand dollar ($750,000) minimum threshold royalty fee payments, the royalty fee will decrease to seven and one half percent (7.5%) on Net Sales of the Product in Territory One and Two for the remainder of the Term.

3.3. AMDL shall pay to MGI royalties as set forth in Section 3.2 within thirty (30) days of the end of each calendar quarter. If the payment is not mailed within the thirty (30) day grace period, it is considered delinquent, and MGI may charge AMDL an annual interest rate, compounded monthly of up to the Wall Street Journal published Prime Rate.

Such accountant shall maintain in confidence, and shall not disclose to MGI, any information concerning AMDL or its operations or properties other than information directly relating to the correctness of such reports and payments.
