FEES.

Licensor will be paid a royalty equal to [***] of Net Revenue during the Term following the Second Amended and Restated Effective Date and a royalty equal to [***] of Net Revenue during the Term prior to the Second Amended and Restated Effective Date. Pear will provide payments to Licensor within sixty (60) days following the calendar quarter during which Pear records the corresponding Net Revenue; provided, however, in the event Pear should become subject to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, then Pear will provide payments to Licensor within ten (10) days following Pear’s quarterly Form 10-Q filing or annual Form 10-K filing for the applicable period; provided such filings are made on a timely basis in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Pear will provide reports

 

13


along with license payments hereunder in sufficient detail to illustrate the basis for the payments made, including the number of units of Integrated Products sold (or units of services provided through the use of Integrated Products), the gross price charged by Pear or its Affiliates for such units, calculation of Net Revenue, including a listing of the deductions taken, the total royalty payable in U.S. Dollars, together with the exchange rates used for any currency conversion and the number of sublicenses granted.

If Pear or any Affiliate sells or leases Integrated Products (or services provided through the use of Integrated Products) in connection with other products or services for a bundled price, Pear covenants that it shall not, and that it shall cause its Affiliates to not apply any such discount in a manner that is applied in a manner that has disproportionate effect on the Integrated Products (or services provided through the use of Integrated Products).

Net Revenue means the gross amount invoiced by Pear or its Affiliates to any independent third party sublicensee, Distributor or any end user for Integrated Products (or services provided through the use of Integrated Products), less: [***].

No deductions shall be made for commissions paid to individuals whether they are with independent sales agencies or regularly employed by Pear and on its payroll, or for cost of collections.

For the avoidance of doubt, Net Revenue shall not apply with respect to units of Integrated Products (or services provided through the use of Integrated Products) that are distributed for clinical study purposes, or for other evaluation or testing purposes that are provided free of charge. Pear will not discriminate against the Integrated Products in a manner that would disproportionately discount the price of the Integrated Product and thereby reduce the royalties payable to Licensor hereunder as compared with the discount applied to any other products or services offered by Pear to the customer.

No non-Affiliate sublicensee revenue will be included in Net Revenue. In addition, Net Revenue will be calculated only once with respect to each unit of Integrated Product (or services provided through the use of Integrated Products) sold by Pear or any Affiliate to any Distributor, non-Affiliate sublicensee or end user, even if such Integrated Product (or services provided through the use of Integrated Products) is sold more than once in the course of its transfer to the ultimate end-user. For the avoidance of doubt, if there are sales of Integrated Products between or among Pear and/or any of its Affiliates for the purpose of further resale to non-Affiliated customers, such sales will not be included in the calculation of Net Revenue (however, the final sale by Pear or an Affiliate to a non-Affiliate sublicensee, Distributor or end user customer will be included in Net Revenue), and payments from licensees relating to events prior to FDA approval such as sublicense fees and development milestone payments will not be included in the calculation of Net Revenue, provided that the agreements with licensees that include such payments also include a conventional royalty provision.

 

14


Non-monetary consideration shall not be accepted by Pear or any Affiliate or sublicensee for any Integrated Products (or services provided through the use of Integrated Products), without the prior written consent of Licensor. In the event that non-monetary consideration is received for Integrated Products (or services provided through the use of Integrated Products), Net Revenue shall be calculated based on the fair market value of such non-monetary consideration (including all elements of such consideration), as determined by the parties in good faith. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that non-monetary consideration (e.g., data) received in the context of clinical validation studies or sponsored research where Integrated Products are not being commercially sold, and any non-monetary consideration (e.g., data) included in a multifaceted agreement in which the primary form of consideration is monetary, shall not be considered a violation of this clause.

If a unit of Integrated Product (or services provided through the use of Integrated Products) is leased to a Distributor or end user rather than sold to such Distributor or end user, then Net Revenue in respect of such units of Integrated Product (or services provided through the use of Integrated Products) shall be calculated on an annual basis and shall equal the aggregate lease payments paid by the Distributor or end user for the use of such unit of Integrated Product (or services provided through the use of Integrated Products).

For the avoidance of doubt, and for all purposes under this Agreement Net Revenue, including the deductions specified in clauses (i)-(iv), shall be calculated in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”).

(ii) Annual License Maintenance Fee. Pear shall pay to Licensor the following license maintenance fees within 30 days after the dates set forth below:

 

Effective Date

   $ 30,000  

First anniversary of Effective Date

   $ 35,000

   $ 40,000

   $ 45,000  

Fourth and each subsequent anniversary of the Effective Date (each, an “Annual License Maintenance Fee”)

For the avoidance of doubt, in no event will Licensor be paid less than the ALMF of [***] in any calendar year after the Second Amended and Restated Effective Date during the term of this Agreement, and the ALMF credit described above may not be applied as a credit against any subsequent ALMF payment due under this Agreement. [***].

(iii) Milestones. In addition to the above royalty, milestone payments will be paid as follows; 1) $200,000 paid to Licensor on [***], and 2) $200,000 paid to Licensor on [***].

Pear acknowledges that it has no proprietary interest in or right to use the Licensor IP or the Licensor Products except in accordance with the terms of the licenses granted in this Agreement.

2.2 Title to Pear IP. Subject to its underlying rights in the Licensor Products, Licensor acknowledges that title to the Pear IP is and will remain the sole property of Pear. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and by way of illustration only, Licensor acknowledges that it has no proprietary interest in or right to use the Pear Data or the Pear-Owned Property except in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement.

2.3 Assignment. To the extent that Licensor has or at any time acquires any right, title or interest in or to any Pear Data, Integrated Products (excluding Licensor Products), Pear Customizations or any other Pear IP, Licensor hereby assigns all of such right, title and interest, including all copyrights, patents and other intellectual property rights, in and to such Pear IP to Pear. On request from Pear, Licensor shall execute any documents necessary to confirm and perfect Pear’s ownership of the Pear IP, at no additional cost to Pear.

3. Confidentiality. Neither party will use any Confidential Information of the disclosing party except as expressly permitted in this Agreement or as expressly authorized in writing by the disclosing party. Each party shall use the same degree of care to protect the disclosing party’s Confidential Information as it uses to protect its own Confidential Information of like nature, but in no circumstances less than reasonable care. Neither party is allowed to disclose the other party’s Confidential Information to any person or entity other than the receiving party’s officers, employees, consultants and legal advisors who need access to such Confidential Information to effectuate the intent of the Agreement. Each party agrees to notify the other of any unauthorized use or disclosure of Confidential Information and to provide reasonable assistance to such other party, and its licensors, in the investigation and prosecution of such unauthorized use or disclosure.

4. Warranties. Licensor represents and warrants each of the following:

4.1 Title. Licensor has title or the right to grant licenses to the Application and the Licensor Products in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and without the obligation to pay third parties in respect of such licenses by Licensor.

4.2 Performance. The Application and Licensor Products, and any Upgrades shall substantially conform to their specifications; provided however, that the foregoing warranty will not apply to the extent the Licensor Products are modified by Pear or used beyond the scope of the licenses granted in this Agreement.

4.3 Reserved.


4.4 Other Licenses. The performance of this Agreement and Pear’s use of the Licensor Products will not require any license to use the intellectual property of a third party, except as otherwise expressly set forth on Exhibit B. If any part of the Licensor Products contains third-party software, Licensor has the full power and authority to sublicense the third-party software as part of its license grant to Pear.

4.5 No Viruses. The Licensor Products will be tested with commercially available anti-virus software to detect the presence of any viruses, worms, disabling programming codes, instructions or other such items that may threaten, infect, damage, disable or otherwise interfere with the permitted use of the Licensor Products (“Virus”) and Licensor shall not deliver any Licensor Products to Pear unless the Licensor Products pass such tests.

Pear reserves the right to pursue any available civil or criminal action against Licensor for violation of this provision. Licensor will not install, use or execute any software on any Pear CPUs without Pear’s written approval. “Malicious Technology” means any software, electronic, mechanical or other means, device or function, e.g. (key node, lock, time-out, “back door,” trapdoor,” “booby trap,” “drop dead device,” “data scrambling device,” “Trojan Horse,”) that would allow Licensor to: (i) monitor or gain unauthorized access to any Pear system, (ii) use any electronic self-help mechanism or (iii) restrict, disable, limit or impair the performance of a Pear system or network.

Licensor will obtain and keep current at its expense all governmental permits, certificates and licenses (including professional licenses, if applicable) necessary for Licensor to grant the licenses under this Agreement.

4.9 Open Source. The Licensor Products are not subject to any requirements that would give rise under applicable open source license agreements to any rights in any third parties with respect to the Licensor Products or any derivative works, or obligations for Pear to disclose or distribute the Integrated Products in source code form, or conditioning the distribution of Integrated Products on disclosure of any source code, or to license the Integrated Products for the purpose of making derivative works, or to distribute Integrated Products without charge.

4.10 Breach of Warranty; Remedy. If there is a breach of any warranty, Licensor will promptly replace and/or repair the nonconforming Licensor Products at Licensor’s sole cost. If Licensor fails to promptly replace and/or repair nonconforming Licensor Products, Pear may, in addition to exercising any other available remedies, replace or repair nonconforming Licensor Products and take as a credit against payments due Licensor an amount equal to the actual documented costs of such repair or replacement of the Licensor Products (but not costs relating to other components of Integrated Products) or terminate the license at Pear’s sole discretion and receive a pro-rata refund for any pre-paid fees prior to such date of termination.

The party seeking indemnification shall cover all costs associated with its defense until the claim is finally resolved at which time the indemnifying party shall reimburse the indemnitee for such costs associated with the prosecution of the claim. Neither party has any obligation to indemnify the other party in connection with any settlement made without the indemnifying party’s written consent.

5.2 Disruption of Use of Licensor Products. If a third-party claim subject to indemnification under Section 4.1(a) prevents Pear’s use of the Licensor Products, Licensor shall, at Licensor’s sole option: (a) replace the Licensor Products, without additional charges, with a functionally equivalent and non-infringing product; or (b) modify the Licensor Products to avoid the infringement; or (c) obtain a license for the Pear to continue use of the Licensor Products and pay for any additional fee required for such license.
