2. DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM

2.1 Development of Product. The Program is directed toward the development of three prototypes of a Product that meets the applicable Specifications set forth in Attachment 1 (including the documents referenced therein) and is expected to have a duration of four (4) months.

2.2 Progress Reports. (a) ViewRay and MSC shall periodically meet, in person or by telephone or videoconference at such times and places as are mutually agreed upon, for MSC to provide ViewRay with an update on the status of the progress of the Program. ViewRay and MSC shall each be responsible for its own expenses incurred in connection with attending such meetings. The parties’ representatives for purposes of meetings under this Section 2.2 will be MSC’s Director of Engineering, or closest equivalent existing at the time, and ViewRay’s Manager of Hardware Development, or closest equivalent existing at the time.

(b) MSC shall provide ViewRay in advance of each meeting pursuant to Section 2.2(a) an agenda for such meeting and reasonably-detailed written reports describing the results of the Program, including difficulties encountered in achieving the technical objectives of the Program during the period since their last meeting.

[***] Certain information in this document has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.


2.3 Deliverables. (a) MSC will produce the deliverables due under Attachment 1 (each, a “Deliverable”) on the schedule set forth in Attachment 1. ViewRay and MSC shall jointly work to test each Deliverable against the Specifications as shown in Attachment 1. ViewRay shall be responsible for paying for any testing and testing related cost. Said testing may include [***] in the Depleted Uranium (“DU”) portions of the Deliverable which could adversely impact its shielding effectiveness; and may require shipment of the Deliverable(s) to a third party facility or to ViewRay’s Oakwood Village facility. If shipment to a third party facility or ViewRay’s facility is made, then ViewRay will work with MSC to arrange for shipment of the Deliverable(s) and ViewRay will pay for all shipping related costs. If ViewRay accepts the Deliverable based on such testing, ViewRay shall acknowledge its acceptance (“Acceptance”) of the Deliverable in writing. If ViewRay rejects the Deliverable, ViewRay shall provide MSC with notice of rejection, including a reasonably specific description of the deficiencies alleged. MSC will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to cure any such deficiencies in an expedient manner and either “re-deliver” such Deliverable to ViewRay within ten (10) Business Days following the notice of rejection or, if MSC cannot accomplish such re-delivery within such 10-Business Day period deliver to ViewRay within such 10-Business Day period a plan for curing said deficiencies. If MSC makes re-delivery of the Deliverable, ViewRay shall, following its receipt of the re-delivered Deliverable, accept or reject the Deliverable using the procedure specified above. If MSC instead provides a correction plan for such Deliverable, ViewRay shall within five (5) Business Days following receipt of such correction plan either agree to, offer modifications of or reject said correction plan. The parties shall repeat the above process until the earlier of the date that a mutually acceptable correction plan is agreed or thirty (30) Business Days following ViewRay’s notice of rejection. If the parties are unable to agree on a mutually acceptable correction plan, and do not extend the timeframe for reaching an accepting a mutually acceptable plan, then ViewRay may terminate this Agreement and ViewRay will “return” the Deliverable to MSC and MSC shall, within thirty (30) days following receipt of the rejected Deliverable, return to ViewRay all sums (if any) paid by ViewRay to MSC for the Deliverable that is the subject of such rejection (but shall not be required to return the funding provided pursuant to Paragraph 1 of Attachment 2 through the date of termination). If the parties do agree upon a correction plan, then MSC shall perform such correction plan and “re-deliver” the Deliverable within the agreed time period. ViewRay shall, following its receipt of the re-delivered Deliverable, accept or reject the Deliverable using the procedure specified above. The process specified in this Section 2.3 shall be repeated until the earliest of the date: (i) ViewRay accepts the re-delivered Deliverable; or (ii) ViewRay rejects the Deliverable two (2) times for failure to comply with the Specifications; or (iii) one hundred eighty (180) days elapses from the initial notice of rejection. If the parties are unable to resolve such nonconformity within such time period, then ViewRay may terminate this Agreement and ViewRay may “return” the Deliverable to MSC and MSC shall, within thirty (30) days following receipt of the rejected Deliverable, return to ViewRay all sums (if any) paid by ViewRay to MSC for the Deliverable that is the subject of such rejection (but shall not be required to return the funding provided pursuant to Paragraph 1 of Attachment 2 through the date of termination.

(b) It is understood and agreed that the Deliverables need not be error-free to have achieved the requirements for ViewRay to make payment of the progress payments (if any) specified in Attachment 2, but if any Deliverable delivery or redelivery contains errors that individually or in the aggregate adversely affect ViewRay’s ability to use such Deliverable in accordance with

 

[***] Certain information in this document has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.


the applicable Specifications, ViewRay may rightfully reject such Deliverable delivery or redelivery. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Acceptance will not relieve MSC of its obligation to fix all identified errors in a timely fashion. ViewRay’s obligations to pay for the Deliverables are subject to Acceptance, ViewRay shall have no obligation to pay for Deliverables except to the extent they are the subject of ViewRay’s Acceptance.

(c) ViewRay will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to test each Deliverable as quickly as practicable and in any event within thirty (30) days of “delivery” of such Deliverable. In the event that ViewRay has not tested a Deliverable within sixty (60) days, then such Deliverable shall be deemed to have been acceptable and accepted by ViewRay.

2.4 Changes. (a) During the Program, ViewRay may request amendments to Attachment 1 to effect changes in the Specifications. If ViewRay wishes to make a change it shall notify MSC of the requested change specifying the change with sufficient details to enable MSC to evaluate it (a “Change Request”). Within ten (10) Business Days, or such longer period as may be agreed to between the parties, following the date of MSC’s receipt of a ViewRay Change Request, MSC shall deliver a document that: (i) assesses the impact of the change on the schedule, and (ii) incorporates a description of the requested change and the price therefor (a “Change Control Document”).

(b) Within ten (10) Business Days following ViewRay’s receipt of a MSC Change Control Document (“Response Period”), ViewRay will notify MSC whether or not it accepts the Change Control Document. If ViewRay accepts the Change Control Document, then the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed amended to incorporate such change in accordance with the Change Control Document. If ViewRay notifies MSC not to proceed within the Response Period, then the Change Request shall be deemed withdrawn and MSC shall take no further action in respect of it. If MSC has not received any notice by the expiration of the Response Period, then ViewRay shall be deemed to have advised MSC not to proceed. A separate Change Control Document will be required for each Change Request but a Change request may include multiple changes; and each Change Control Document will become subject to this Agreement when signed by MSC and ViewRay.

(c) MSC may not make any changes in the form, fit, function, design, manufacturing process, manufacturing location or appearance of the Products or the Specifications without ViewRay’s prior written approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(d) It is the intent of the parties that the Specifications have been defined broadly enough and with sufficient detail to accomplish ViewRay’s goal for the Product without price increases even if the services are changed pursuant to this Section 2.4; provided that such changes, as documented in a Change Control Document, do not change the scope of the tasks contemplated by the Specifications, as reasonably determined by MSC.

2.5 Success Criteria. If the Product prototypes delivered at the completion of the Program meets the applicable Specifications, then the provisions of Section 3 shall take effect. If the Product prototype delivered at the completion of the Program does not meet the Specifications or if ViewRay and MSC determine during the course of the Program that the results of the Program are unsatisfactory; which determination shall be made with reference to the prospects for

realizing Products that meet the Specifications then in each case they may mutually agree to terminate the Program under Section 9.2(b). If the parties do not agree with respect to termination of the Program, they shall resolve such dispute using the procedure specified in Section 10.2(a)-(b). ViewRay’s notice of Acceptance of the final Deliverables shall confirm the end of the Program and the initiation of the commercial supply arrangements described in Section 3.

2.6 Pricing. Pricing for effort and items delivered under this Section 2 will be as set forth in Attachment 2.

2.7 Payment. All payments under this Section 2 will be made by check or wire transfer. Payments will be made in US dollars. All amounts due under this Section 2 will be due within thirty (30) days of Acceptance (to the extent applicable as indicated on Attachment 2) and following receipt of invoice. MSC will invoice ViewRay upon completion of each Program Phase Milestone as per Attachment 2.

3. PURCHASE OF PRODUCTS AND TERMS OF SALE

3.1 Supply. If the Products meet the Specifications then ViewRay will purchase from MSC during the period ending on the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date ViewRay’s requirements for the Products.

3.2 Purchase Forecasts. At least one hundred twenty days (120) days prior to the first delivery to ViewRay of commercial Products, ViewRay will deliver to MSC a six month (6) month rolling forecast (the “Forecast”). The Forecast will cover the 6 months commencing with and including the calendar month in which the first delivery of Products is to occur. After delivery of the initial Forecast, the Forecast will be updated on a monthly basis. During the period prior to the date when ViewRay Product demand (as measured by units of Product received by ViewRay), averages [***] or more Products per month over a [***] period the Forecast shall be non-binding until [***] prior to the forecast shipment date at which time the quantities become binding on ViewRay. Thereafter (the “Full Production Period”), the Forecast shall be non-binding until [***] prior to the forecast shipment date at which time the quantities become binding on ViewRay.

3.3 Product Orders. ViewRay will submit to MSC firm written purchase orders (each a “Purchase Order”) for the purchase of Products at least sixty (60) days prior to the specified delivery date of the ordered Products. Each Purchase Order will specify the quantity or, if more than one shipment is requested, quantities of Products ordered, the requested delivery date or dates, and ship-to locations. Orders will be placed by ViewRay to MSC by mail or facsimile, or by other means agreed upon by the parties. In the case of conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and either the standard printed terms of any Purchase Order or the standard printed terms of sale of MSC, the provisions of this Agreement will control. Purchase Orders may not be cancelled, but ViewRay may delay shipment for up to thirty (30) days with notice to MSC delivered at least thirty (30) days prior to the scheduled delivery date.

3.4 Acceptance; Obligation to Supply. (a) MSC will acknowledge all Purchase Orders within five (5) Business Days following receipt of same and will deliver all orders within ninety (90) days following the date such Purchase Order is received. MSC will accept all Purchase

Orders for a particular calendar month to the extent that the Purchase Order (i) does not exceed the amount of the firm Forecast for such calendar month, and (ii) requires delivery no less than sixty (60) days following the date on which MSC receives the Purchase Order. MSC will not be in breach of this Section 3.4 if MSC’s failure to supply Products is due to a Force Majeure event or if MSC’s failure is limited to quantities in excess of the quantities specified in the binding Forecast period.

(b) Each party will promptly notify the other party of any circumstances that it believes may be of importance as to MSC’s ability to meet ViewRay’s needs for the Products in a timely manner. If the Forecasts indicate that ViewRay’s need for the Products will exceed MSC’s existing capacity to supply the Products, the parties will determine in good faith whether MSC successfully can expand its production capacity so as to meet ViewRay’s needs in a timely manner.

3.5 Pricing. (a) After furnishing [***] under the Program covered by Section 2, the next [***] of Products purchased, pursuant this Section 3 (i.e., units [***]), will be priced at $[***] per unit.

(b) The prices for subsequent units of Product, from unit [***] up to and including unit [***], purchased by ViewRay pursuant to this Section 3 shall be priced at $[***] per unit. Prices stated are firm for such [***] units of Product ordered and for which delivery is requested within [***] after the Effective Date. The pricing for any portion of such [***] units of Product ordered after the expiration of such [***] period or with delivery requested after such [***] period, the price per unit of Product will increase by [***].

(c) Pricing and the pricing scheme, including quantity discounts, for additional units of Product purchased by ViewRay beyond the initial [***] units will be established using the procedure set forth in this Section 3.5(c). Not later than the date MSC delivers the [***] unit of Product to ViewRay pursuant to this Section 3, at MSC’s option, MSC may calculate and compare its actual direct costs of production for Products (i.e., for the [***] units of Products delivered pursuant to this Section 3), against its forecasted direct costs of production of Products, which formed the basis of the pricing applicable for Product units [***] in Section 3.5(b) and request a pricing adjustment pursuant to this Section 3.5(c). If MSC determines that it will perform the estimated versus actual direct cost of production comparison, then MSC will provide, ViewRay with a copy of such comparison, including documentation of such price components, and may request a one-time price adjustment that will be applicable for units of Product after unit [***] to cover any variance between the estimated direct costs of production and the actual direct costs of production. ViewRay will have thirty (30) days to review the proposed price adjustment and will either accept it or reject it; it being understood that in the event ViewRay rejects the proposed pricing adjustment, and the parties are unable to negotiate pricing that is mutually acceptable within sixty (60) days following such rejection, ViewRay’s obligation to purchase its requirements of Products under Section 3.1 shall be of no further effect. If MSC does not exercise its option pursuant to this Section 3.5(c) it shall notify ViewRay at the time it delivers the [***] unit of Product and the pricing for additional units of Product supplied to ViewRay pursuant to this Section 3 shall be $[***] per unit, subject to the adjustments set forth in Sections 3.5(d)-(e).

 

[***] Certain information in this document has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.


For purposes of this Section 3.5(c), MSC’s “direct costs of production” means the [***] (including [***]) and [***] (including [***]) specifically allocable to the [***] of the [***]; such calculation and allocation being based upon generally accepted accounting principles and contract manufacturing industry standards and consistent with the normal accounting practices for all products manufactured in the applicable facility. Any significant costs not described above or unusual cost items (i.e. [***]) shall be provided to ViewRay and subject to approval prior to inclusion in the direct costs of production.

(d) Not more than [***] of the date that MSC delivers the [***] unit of product per Section 3.5(c), MSC will adjust the prices for the Products, units [***] and beyond, during the next [***] period to reflect increases or decreases in the cost of [***] for the production of Products, provided that the adjustment for [***] shall not exceed the change, if any, in the [***] as compared to the [***]. Any such price adjustment shall be made with notice to ViewRay, including documentation of such [***] price changes and upon ViewRay’s request, MSC shall make all applicable books and records available for such inspection during normal business hours at MSC’s facility for purposes of verifying such cost adjustments.

3.10 Manufacturing Rights. (a) if MSC fails to supply Product ordered by ViewRay in accordance with the terms of this Agreement regarding the quantity or quality of Products supplied to ViewRay, then MSC shall within ten (10) Business Days of said failure present ViewRay with a plan to remedy the problem and shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to execute such plan and remedy the problem or MSC shall secure an alternative source of supply within a reasonable time at no cost to ViewRay. Any such alternative source of supply shall be on terms substantially identical with the terms of this Agreement. If MSC is unable to provide a plan to remedy the problem or secure an alternative source of supply within [***] after its initial failure to supply, then MSC shall consult with ViewRay and the parties shall work together to remedy the problem. If MSC is unable to remedy the supply problem after an [***] (or longer as agreed in writing by the parties), commencing with the date upon which such failure to supply began, then ViewRay may at its option, and upon notice to MSC, manufacture the Products itself or through a third party in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.10(b).

(b) If ViewRay notifies MSC that ViewRay will manufacture the Products itself or through a third party, MSC shall (1) deliver to ViewRay within thirty (30) days media embodying or disclosing all Program technology and Program proprietary or intellectual property rights necessary to enable ViewRay or its designee to manufacture Products conforming with the Specifications; and (2) provide ViewRay or its designee, upon request, with reasonable assistance in establishing a back-up manufacturing line.

(c) Within three (3) months following the date ViewRay accepts the final Deliverable pursuant to Section 2, MSC shall provide ViewRay, upon request, with assistance in qualifying a second source for the Products in the event that ViewRay should need to resort to this Section 3.10 upon a MSC supply failure. MSC shall deliver to ViewRay or the proposed second source manufacturers media embodying or disclosing all information necessary to enable ViewRay and such second source manufacturer to evaluate their ability to manufacture Products conforming with the Specifications; and MSC shall make itself available to respond to reasonable requests for information concerning the manufacturing requirements for the Products.

 

[***] Certain information in this document has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.


All such disclosure to ViewRay shall be subject to Section 6 and all such disclosures to second source manufacturers shall be made to such second source manufacturers under a written confidentiality containing terms no less restrictive than Section 6. ViewRay shall pay MSC’s labor cost at the then current hourly rates plus reasonable travel and out of pocket expenses in providing such assistance.

3.11 Changes. (a) The Product Specifications for “commercial” Product supplied pursuant to this Section 3 may be modified or changed only by ViewRay. ViewRay shall use the procedure specified in Section 2.4(a)-(b) to request such modifications or changes, except as modified in this Section 3.11. To the extent that any such modification or change results in an increase or decrease in the cost of manufacturing any Product or requires additional capital investment or other material changes to the manufacturing process, the parties shall jointly examine and mutually agree upon the consequences thereof and shall make an appropriate increase or decrease to the purchase price of such Product arising from such modification or change.

10. GENERAL PROVISIONS.

10.1 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the internal, substantive laws of New York, to the exclusion of any choice or conflict of laws rule or provision that would result in the application of the substantive law of any other jurisdiction. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods shall not apply to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

10.2 Dispute Resolution. (a) The parties will attempt to settle any claim or controversy arising out of this Agreement or the subject matter hereof through consultation and negotiation in good faith in a spirit of mutual cooperation. Such matters will be initially addressed by the Manager of Hardware Development of ViewRay and the Director of Manufacturing and Engineering of MSC, who shall use reasonable efforts to attempt to resolve the dispute through good faith negotiations by telephone or in person as may be agreed. In addition, all disputes brought by ViewRay will also be copied to the MSC Manager of Contracts. If they fail to resolve the dispute within thirty (30) days after either party notifies the other of the dispute, then the matter will be escalated to the Senior Vice President of Engineering of ViewRay and the President and General Manager of MSC, or their designees for resolution. They will use reasonable efforts to attempt to resolve the dispute through good faith negotiations by telephone or in person as may be agreed. If they fail to resolve the dispute within thirty (30) days after it is referred to them and do not mutually agree to extend the time for negotiation, then the dispute will be submitted to arbitration in accordance with the procedure set forth in Section 10.2(b).

(b) Except with respect to actions by either party seeking equitable or declaratory relief, any claim or controversy arising in whole or in part under or in connection with this Agreement or the subject matter hereof that is not resolved pursuant to Section 10.2(a) will be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association as such Rules may be modified by this Agreement, by one arbitrator, who will be agreed upon by the parties. If the parties are unable to agree upon a single arbitrator within thirty (30) days following the date arbitration is demanded, three arbitrators will be used, one selected by each party within ten (10) days after the conclusion of the 30-day period and a third selected by the first two within 10 days thereafter. Unless the parties agree otherwise, they will be limited in their discovery to directly relevant documents. Responses or objections to a document request will be served twenty (20) days after receipt of the request. The arbitrator(s) will resolve any discovery disputes. The foregoing arbitration proceedings may be commenced by either party by notice to the other party. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, all such arbitration proceedings will be held in Cleveland, Ohio or at alternative location if mutually agreed, provided that proceedings may be conducted by telephone conference call with the consent of the arbitrator. All arbitration proceedings will be

conducted in the English language and the arbitrator(s) will apply the law of Delaware. The arbitrator(s) will only have the authority to award actual money damages (with interest on unpaid amounts from the date due) and, except with respect to a breach or nonperformance of any provision of this Agreement relating to Confidential Information, the arbitrator(s) will not have the authority to award indirect, incidental, consequential, exemplary, special or punitive damages, and the parties expressly waive any claimed right to such damages. The arbitration will be of each party’s individual claims only, and no claim of any other party will be subject to arbitration in such proceeding. The costs and expenses of the arbitration, but not the costs and expenses of the parties, will be shared equally by the parties. If a party fails to proceed with arbitration, unsuccessfully challenges the arbitration award, or fails to comply with the arbitration award, the other party is entitled to costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, for having to compel arbitration or defend or enforce the award. Except as otherwise required by law, the parties and the arbitrator(s) will maintain as confidential all information or documents obtained during the arbitration process, including the resolution of the dispute. Judgment on the award granted in any arbitration hereunder may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the award or any of the parties or any of their respective assets. The provisions of this Section 10.2(b) will not apply to any claim or controversy involving infringement or misappropriation of any Intellectual Property Right of either party, in which case the claim or controversy may be brought in a state or federal court having jurisdiction over the matter. The parties knowingly and voluntarily waive their rights to have their dispute tried and adjudicated by a judge and jury except as expressly provided herein.

10.3 Amendment and Waiver. No provision of or right under this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived by any act or acquiescence on the part of either party, its agents or employees, but only by an instrument in writing signed by an authorized officer of each party. No waiver by either party of any breach of this Agreement by the other party shall be effective as to any other breach, whether of the same or any other term or condition and whether occurring before or after the date of such waiver.

10.4 Independent Contractors. Each party represents that it is acting on its own behalf as an independent contractor and is not acting as an agent for or on behalf of any third party. This Agreement and the relations hereby established by and between ViewRay and MSC do not constitute a partnership, joint venture, franchise, agency or contract of employment. Neither party is granted, and neither party shall exercise, the right or authority to assume or create any obligation or responsibility on behalf of or in the name of the other party or its Affiliates. Each party shall be solely responsible for compensating all its personnel and for payment of all related FICA, workers’ compensation, unemployment and withholding taxes. Neither party shall provide the other party’s personnel with any benefits, including but not limited to compensation for insurance premiums, paid sick leave or retirement benefits.

10.5 Assignment. Neither party may assign this Agreement or any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party; provided, that either party may assign this Agreement without the consent of the other party to an Affiliate or in connection with any merger, acquisition, or sale a majority of such party’s voting stock or a sale of substantially all such party’s assets; provided, further, that in each instance the assignee expressly assumes all obligations imposed on the assigning party by this Agreement in writing and the other party is notified in advance of such assignment. Any purported assignment in violation of this Section 10.5 shall be null and void.

10.8 Severability. In the event any provision of this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision hereof. The parties agree that they will negotiate in good faith or will permit a court to replace any provision hereof so held invalid, illegal or unenforceable with a valid provision which is as similar as possible in substance to the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.

10.9 Captions. Captions of the sections and subsections of this Agreement are for reference purposes only and do not constitute terms or conditions of this Agreement and shall not limit or affect the meaning or construction of the terms and conditions hereof.

10.10 Word Meanings.

The singular shall include the plural, and each masculine, feminine and neuter reference shall include and refer also to the others, unless the context otherwise requires.

10.11 Entire Agreement.

No agreement or understanding extending this Agreement or varying its terms (including any inconsistent terms in any purchase order, acknowledgment or similar form) shall be binding upon either party unless it is in a writing specifically referring to this Agreement and signed by a duly authorized representative of the applicable party.

10.12 Rules of Construction. The parties agree that they have participated equally in the formation of this Agreement and that the language and terms of this Agreement shall not be construed against either party by reason of the extent to which such party or its professional advisors participated in the preparation of this Agreement.

10.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Facsimile signatures shall be accepted as original signatures, orders may be transmitted electronically and any document created pursuant to this Agreement may be maintained in an electronic document storage and retrieval system, a copy of which shall be considered an original.

10.14 Force Majeure. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, in the event that a delay or failure of a party to comply with any obligation created by this Agreement is caused by acts of God, wars (declared or undeclared and including the continuance, expansion or new outbreak of any war or conflict now in existence), revolution, civil commotion, acts of public enemy, labor strikes (other than employees of the affected party), terrorism, embargo or acts of government in its sovereign capacity (“Force Majeure”), the “affected party” will, after giving prompt notice to the “disadvantaged party,” be excused from such performance on a day-to-day basis during the continuance of such prevention, restriction, or interference (and the disadvantaged party will likewise be excused from performance of its obligations on a day-to-day basis during the same period), provided, however, that the affected party will use its best efforts to avoid or remove the causes of nonperformance and both parties will proceed immediately with the performance of their obligations under this Agreement whenever the causes are removed or cease. If Force Majeure conditions continue for more than 60 consecutive days or an aggregate 120 days in any 12-month period, then the disadvantaged party may terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.2(d).

10.15 Further Assurances. Each party covenants and agrees that, subsequent to the execution and delivery of this Agreement and without any additional consideration, it will execute and deliver any further legal instruments and perform any acts which are or may become reasonably necessary to effectuate the purposes of this Agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF the parties have caused this Agreement to be executed on their behalf by their duly authorized representatives intending it to take effect as an instrument under seal as of the Effective Date.
