Such audits, if necessary, will be performed at mutually agreed-upon times. E2V agree to have any necessary personnel present for any such audits and agree to cooperate with TOMO in conducting any necessary audits. In the event that issues arise as a result of these audits then the Parties will work together to resolve these issues and will not use issues arising from the audit as grounds for finding E2V in default of the Agreement unless such issues cannot be resolved by the Parties and cause the Product to fail to meet the Specification. In the event that any issues arise from the audit that cannot be resolved and such issues make it such that continued use of the Product by TOMO in the System would cause TOMO to fail to meet its regulatory and quality obligations with respect to the System, then TOMO shall have the right to terminate the Agreement, either in whole or in part, subject to paying the costs for termination specified in Section 11.3 herein.

 

 


 

6.

EXHIBIT A
MAGNETRON SUBSCRIPTION PROGRAM (MSP)
I.  
MSP Processes
  A.  
PROCEDURES
The Procedures used to manage the activities outlined in this section shall be managed through the work groups and through the steering teams via the agreed MSP Policies and Processes document, not attached hereto but known by the Parties, which will be subject to revision control and maintained by TOMO, which may be amended from time to time upon agreement by the Parties. It is the spirit of this agreement that both parties will work to achieve the most effective, low cost solution to administrative issues. It is anticipated that the processes will evolve over time with experience and to accommodate external events that might affect the program.
  B.  
SERVICE FEES: THE MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION BLANKET ORDER FOR MSP SITES AND THE MONTHLY NFF CHARGE
  1.  
At start-up an allowance will be made for TOMO-owned Products currently in use. These Products currently have an estimated average remaining life of [ * ]. Therefore, Systems containing Product already purchased by TOMO will be credited for an average remaining Product life over the first year of the program in the form of a discount of [ * ]% to the first year’s Subscription Price, deducted monthly. After the first year under the MSP, this discount will lapse and revert to non discounted Subscription Price with effect from the thirteenth month of the Agreement.
  2.  
New Systems added to the MSP list (increasing the baseline) chargeable at the prevailing per System Subscription Prices. New systems shall assume to ATP on the 15th of the month in which the ATP occurs and thus shall be discounted [ * ] for the ATP month. The controlling document will be the MSP Systems list provided by TOMO and reviewed each month.
  3.  
The monthly NFF Service Fee shall be charged against a separate purchase order. This shall be for an assumed number of NFF devices, the basis at Effective Date shall be [ * ] NFF per month at [ * ] per NFF. This will be reviewed on a regular basis to take account of actual NFF during previous period, and may be rebased by agreement of the Parties if the actual NFF changes substantially. It is understood that both parties shall work together to reduce or eliminate NFF Product and subsequently the NFF fee.

 

 


 

  C.  
ORDERING PRODUCTS
An inventory of Products is maintained internally for testing and disposition. This supply of Products is replenished weekly from orders placed to E2V. Products are not considered part of the MSP program until they are tested (TOMO Initial Tests) and dispositioned.
In general, Product demand is created when
  1)  
new sites ATP;
 
  2)  
when service Products fail,
  3)  
or when Products are needed for to supply Product Development, to increase Tomo stock, or to replenish Product consumption from non-MSP sites
Under the MSP program weekly orders will be placed to E2V to fill all needs for the week against specific Purchase Orders.
Unless changed by the Parties;
   
The order for MANUFACTURING (ATP) and SERVICE Products is created and managed from tube test results data and made available to E2V on a weekly basis. In both cases purchases are offset by full tube credits when the Products are issued to an MSP site. In the case of SERVICE Products the debit/credit transaction will always be simultaneous. Any instances of outstanding credit or debit on the SERVICE Products will be resolved by the Parties immediately.
   
It is understood that every tube released and assigned to MANUFACTURING will be offset by a corresponding credit when the system that the Product is assigned to reaches ATP. At this time the ATP site will be added to the MSP site list as a new system.
   
Products released to replace SERVICE failure shall be determined from failure data provided by Tomo on a weekly basis. It is understood that once E2V sends a SERVICE Product it will send a corresponding invoice immediately for the new Product along with an offsetting credit for the new TOMO Product installed into the system. The Order for SERVICE failure replacement shall always be immediately netted to zero and no net debit or credit should ever be created by this order.
   
Non-MSP orders shall be made by separate discrete orders. It is understood that non-MSP sites such as Distributors may draw Products from any Tomo Inventory and that Tomo will replenish these Products with Non-MSP orders. Serial number tracking will not be available for Distributor Products, but quantities will be known and shared upon request.
  D.  
CHANGES TO TOMO INVENTORY
   
Increases to TOMO Inventory
   
TOMO may place non-MSP orders to increase net TOMO Inventory (beyond orders to replenish other Non-MSP needs)
   
Decreases to TOMO Inventory

 

 


 

   
Should TOMO elect to reduce inventory this may be accomplished as follows;
   
By fully consuming an ATP Product rather than returning it for full credit (and thereby delaying the addition of the site to the MSP program until the end of the initial Product life)
   
By not replenishing Products taken by non-MSP sites
   
TOMO will not reduce or increase TOMO Inventory through the MANUFACTURING (ATP) or SERVICE orders, as these orders involve net debit/credit offsets.
  E.  
DISPOSITION OF RETURNED SERVICE FAILURES
Products over [ * ] hours shall be destroyed and scrapped unless specifically requested for testing by E2V. Products with over [ * ] hours use and less than [ * ] hours shall be held for a reasonable period of time, during which e2v may request up to [ * ]% of Products to be returned for testing, those not returned shall be destroyed and scrapped.
  F.  
OPERATIONAL MATTERS
  1.  
When a Product is to be returned to E2V for any reason, TOMO will ensure that the Product is clearly identified as a Product which is part of the MSP or otherwise.
  2.  
No Fault Found Products Returned to E2V applies only to new Products receiving acceptance gantry testing (i.e., TOMO Initial Tests) at the TOMO factory. Service failures may be tested for data purposes but shall not be considered NFF for any commercial purpose. It is expected that both parties shall work together to eliminate NFF results and related fees.
  G.  
TRAINING
If E2V deems appropriate, then E2V will provide training in Product knowledge for TOMO personnel, including FSEs. TOMO’s permission for such activity will not be unreasonably withheld.
  H.  
USAGE
Should it be recognised by either TOMO or E2V that a particular System is returning Products on a more frequent than average quantity on a regular basis then the Parties will work together to investigate the cause of the returns, determine mechanisms to reduce these and implement these in the System, this may include but is not limited to System maintenance, changes in the operating environment and System user training.
  I.  
CHANGES TO THE PRODUCT
It is the intention of the parties to work together in a collaborative manner to improve the life performance of the Products and as a result, the reliability of the TOMO System. Within this collaborative approach E2V will undertake enhancement programmes, within the scope of the agreed MSP Subscription Price, that are for the purpose of extending the life of the Product. However it is also the intention of the Parties, from time to time, to agree to allocate resources to investigate specific areas of Product performance.

 

 


 

Any such investigative engineering work will be managed and agreed through bi-weekly engineering meetings and the Leadership Team who will oversee and approve any additional engineering work. E2V agrees that it will not undertake any such work without first informing TOMO as to whether the work is within the scope of the agreed MSP Price and if such work is not within the scope, E2V will not undertake such work without first providing TOMO with a project timeline, including deadlines for deliverables, and the NRE costs for the work, nor will E2V proceed with the work without written authorization from TOMO.
If, at the bi-weekly engineering meeting, it is agreed by E2V to undertake an investigation into a specific area of performance (excluding performance issues relating to the quality of the Products in their current state, which are included in the agreed MSP price), the parameters, outputs, resource level, timescale and if necessary, additional funding will be agreed by the Parties and minuted prior to the commencement of the investigation. Such investigative effort will also have the written approval of the Leadership Team before being undertaken.
Any investigative effort carried-out will be prioritized on a case-by-case basis provided this effort does not negatively impact or delay other magnetron-related projects and priorities that are within the scope of the agreed MSP Subscription Price.
1. Agreed Enhancement Projects:

Taking account of the above intentions, the Parties agree that TOMO will undertake an enhancement project relating to [ * ]. Subject to completion of this programme of work and achievement of performance enhancement objectives, to be agreed, and following in field evidencing of this programme and achievement of objectives, then E2V will make a proportionate pro rata reduction in the Subscription Price for each Subscription Product incorporating the [ * ]enhancement(s).
2. The Parties understand that changes to the System may impact the Product. The Parties therefore commit through the bi-weekly engineering meetings, to fully communicate and disclose any changes to the System or its components that may impact the performance of the magnetron. Subject to clause 8 E2V and TOMO will agree all changes to the Product prior to incorporation. All improvements to the Product will be at E2V’s sole discretion.
  J.  
IMPACT OF CHANGES TO TYPICAL OPERATING CONDITIONS
The Parties recognize that certain projects or changes to the System may result in a change in the Typical Operating Conditions of the System from the [ * ] hour average beam on hours that is typical as of the Effective Date of the MSP. The Parties further recognize that a significant change in Typical Operating Conditions across the base of installed Systems could impact overall Product consumption in a manner not anticipated at the time of execution of the MSP.

 

 


 

The Parties thereby agree that should the Typical Operating Conditions of the Systems (meaning the average Typical Operating Conditions of all of the Systems in the MSP) change in either direction by 10% then E2V reserves the right to adjust the Subscription Price accordingly by a proportionate amount unless TOMO can present reasonable evidence that the change in the Typical Operating Conditions has not affected the overall Product consumption rate.
In the instance of a change to some identifiable sub-group of the Systems under the MSP, such as for example the addition of TomoDirect™, then the above adjustments in the Subscription Price will be implemented in the identifiable sub-group only.

PURPOSE & SCOPE
This document details the technical specification for the [ * ] magnetron supplied by e2v technologies (uk) limited. The magnetron is used in conjunction with electromagnet [ * ] and transition [ * ] to provide RF power to medical linar accelerators. The magnetron is powered by Solid-State Modulator [ * ]

[ * ] Test Specification
TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS
Frequency

Frequency range (with cooling water at [ * ]° C):[ * ] to [ * ] MHz.
On rotation of the magnetron through 360° the frequency will not vary by more than [ * ] kHz. To minimise the frequency deviation the rotational axis should be parallel to the axis of the tuner.
For information only; the steady state temperature coefficient of frequency is approximately [ * ] kHz/°C. Typically at start-up the frequency will be [ * ] MHz high, [ * ] seconds after switching on the high voltage supply.
Power Output

Peak output power [ * ] MW (see Performance Chart). The maximum variation of output power is [ * ]% when the magnetron is rotated through 360° around any axis.
Power Input

The maximum power input is [ * ] kW (mean).
Pulse Width

The maximum pulse width is [ * ] µs. Longer pulses are possible but may impact magnetron life.
Rate of Rise of Voltage Pulse

The steepest tangent to the leading edge of the voltage pulse above [ * ] % amplitude must be between [ * ] kV/µs and [ * ] kV/µs. Any capacitance in the viewing system must not exceed [ * ] pF.
Missing Pulses

Missing pulses will not exceed [ * ]%. Test duration is a minimum of [ * ] minutes.
Pulses are defined as missing if the total energy within the pulse is less than [ * ]% of normal value. The pulses may be of reduced duration, amplitude, or at a frequency outside the linac bandwidth. These faults may be caused by a number of magnetron failure modes. [ * ]
Missing pulses due to arcing can periodically increase to higher levels for short periods throughout the life of the magnetron. This is considered normal magnetron behaviour. If the tube is not at end of life then the missing pulse count should recover to the normal level if the tube is allowed to run.

HEALTH AND SAFETY HAZARDS
    e2v technologies magnetrons are safe to handle and operate, provided that the relevant precautions stated herein are observed. e2v technologies does not accept responsibility for damage or injury resulting from the use of the electronic devices it produces. Equipment manufacturers and users must ensure that adequate precautions are taken. Appropriate warning labels and notices must be provided on equipments incorporating e2v technologies devices and in operating manuals.
    High voltage
    Equipment must be designed so that personnel cannot come into contact with high voltage circuits. All high voltage circuits and terminals must be enclosed and fail-safe interlock switches must be fitted to disconnect the primary power supply and discharge all high voltage capacitors and other stored charges before allowing access. Interlock switches must not be bypassed to allow operation with access doors open.
    RF Radiation
    Personnel must not be exposed to excessive RF radiation. All RF connectors must be correctly fitted before operation so that no leakage of RF energy can occur and the RF output must be coupled efficiently to the load. It is particularly dangerous to look into open waveguide or coaxial feeders while the device is energised. Screening of the cathode sidearm of high power magnetrons may be necessary.
    X-Ray Radiation
    High voltage magnetrons emit a significant intensity of X-rays not only from the cathode sidearm but also from the output waveguide. These rays can constitute a health hazard unless adequate shielding for X-ray radiation is provided. This is a characteristic of all magnetrons and the X-rays emitted correspond to a voltage much higher than that of the anode.

Exhibit C
Standard Conditions of Warranty for e2v Products
e2V
The following Standard Conditions of Warranty are issued in conjunction with e2v General Terms and Conditions of Sale for the Purchaser’s benefit and contain important information relating to the Warranty in respect of the Product and a Return Procedure. Please read this carefully.
1.   CONDITION
Except where otherwise agreed in writing, the Product shall be subject to the following conditions of warranty.
Each Product for which a warranty is offered is guaranteed against defects in workmanship and materials and designed to perform to its specification when operated in accordance with e2v’s instructions. The warranty applicable to each Product is defined in a warranty code contained in e2v’s written quotation and confirmed on e2v’s written order acknowledgement.
A warranty code is comprised of a letter and one or two groups of numbers.
The letter gives the total warranty period commencing from the date of despatch of the Product from e2v, subject to the group or groups of numbers.
A.   indicates 2 years.
 
B.   indicates 18 months.
 
C.   indicates that the number following gives the warranty period in months.
 
E.   indicates 1 year.
 
G.   indicates 3 years.
 
H.   indicates 4 years.
 
J.   indicates that the number following gives the warranty period in months.
Where the letter is followed by two groups of numbers (e.g. A100/1000):
a.  
the first group (e.g. A 100/1000) gives the filament or high tension (HT) life in hours within which the Product may, at e2v’s sole option, be repaired or replaced free of charge or credited in full; except for J terms, which gives this period in months.
b.  
the second group (e.g. A100/1000) gives the total warranted number of filament or HT life in hours; except for J terms, which gives this period in months. For a Product failing with a filament or HT life in excess of the hours specified by the first group of numbers (100) but less than the total number of hours/months given by the second group (1000), repairs, replacements or credit will be given on a pro-rata basis, determined by the ratio of the unused portion of the total warranted hours to the second group of numbers, provided that the period indicated by the letter (A = 2 years) has not expired.
Where the letter is preceded by a number (e.g. 6C24), this indicates an agreed shelf life before use. Therefore, the warranty period begins as soon as the product is used, or at latest, six months after delivery of the product by e2v.
Where the letter is followed by one group of numbers (e.g. C12), this gives the total warranted period either in months for ‘C’ terms or in filament or HT hours for other terms during which, at e2v’s sole option, the Product will be repaired, or full replacement or credit will be given.
In the unlikely event that a quotation or acknowledgement does not contain a warranty coding for your specific Product, or in the event that you require clarification of a warranty coding, please contact the appropriate e2v Sales Department Personnel.
2.   CLAIMS
2.1   Damage in Transit
a.  
Each Product is inspected by e2v prior to despatch and should be examined by the Purchaser immediately on receipt.
 
b.  
The carton or packing crate should be examined for signs of damage and the Carrier’s note endorsed accordingly. If inspection is not possible at this stage the item should be signed for as “unexamined”. The Product must then be unpacked with minimum delay and, after inspection for damage to its glasswork or internal structure, an electrical test applied. Where a static test is impracticable, a functional test in its intended equipment is recommended.
 
c.  
Where damage in transit is suspected, the original packing materials should be retained to return the product. If the Product has been damaged in transit, and if e2v has arranged the insurance cover on behalf of the Purchaser, the Purchaser should, within 7 days of receipt of the Product, either (a) inform the nearest Lloyds Representative, or (b) notify e2v, who will file an insurance claim. If insurance has been arranged by the Purchaser, then the Purchaser should deal with this in his usual way.
2.2   Conditions of Warranty
This warranty is valid only if the following conditions are met:
a.   The Product has been supplied directly by e2v or via a distributor, representative or other selling medium authorised by e2v.
 
b.   The Product has been operated within its specification and in accordance with e2v instructions.

 
c.   The Product has not been subjected to any accident, abuse, alteration, misuse or neglect in storage, transportation, handling or use.
 
d.   The return procedure specified in Paragraph 3 below is followed.
 
e.   The decision of e2v on the cause of failure and on the value and form of any applicable allowances is accepted by the Purchaser.
 
f.   Right of access to equipment for the purpose of checking operating conditions is granted to any representative of e2v where e2v may so require.
 
g.   e2v is notified within 30 days of the Product failure.
 
h.   The Product is withdrawn from service as soon as possible after the alleged failure has occurred.
2.3 Limitation of Liability
Unless expressly stated in a separate written agreement between e2v and the Purchaser, this warranty defines fully the extent of e2v’s liability for the Product and shall be in lieu of any warranty condition or liability express or implied by law or otherwise, including warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose which are hereby expressly excluded. The sole obligation of e2v under this warranty is to carry out repairs, supply replacement Products or give credit as specified herein.

RETURN PROCEDURE
The return procedure specified below must be followed if returning a product under warranty:
3.1  
A Product Service Report Form, which is despatched with the product, must be completed giving all information requested and noting, in Particular, any unusual occurrences before or at the time of failure. The Form must be returned with the returned product.
 
3.2  
The returned product should be packed in the same manner as originally, preferably by use of the same packaging materials. If the purchaser cannot provide suitable packing it can be provided at the purchaser’s expense.
 
3.3  
The returned product must be insured and carriage paid by the Purchaser, and e2v accepts no responsibility for loss of, or damage to, a returned product during transit.
 
3.4  
If repair or replacement is offered, the Purchaser will be notified in writing and the product will be despatched, carriage and insurance paid, to destinations within the United Kingdom or to a suitable United Kingdom port of embarkation in the case of overseas Purchasers.
 
3.5  
Where credit is offered in settlement of a claim such credit shall, in all cases, unless otherwise agreed, be based on the FCA (UK Port or Airport) INCOTERMS 2000 selling price of the product for overseas Purchasers, or on the net delivered price for Purchasers within the United Kingdom. If the returned Product is not defective and is still serviceable, it will be returned at the Purchaser’s expense.
 
3.6  
It may be necessary for an inoperative product to be dismantled by e2v to determine the cause of failure and permission for this to be done is granted automatically by the Purchaser in returning the Product. An inoperative product will only be returned to the Purchaser at his expense if no repair, credit or replacement can be allowed. Where credit or replacement is allowed, the returned Product shall become the property of e2v.
4.  
RE-WARRANTY
Products that have been repaired or replaced under warranty will be re-warranted to the end of the original period of warranty of the repaired or replaced product or for three months, whichever is longer. The expiry of the original period of warranty for the purposes of re-warranty will be extended to take account of the duration of the interruption of use as a result of the failure under warranty.
