FABRICATION AND SERVICES AGREEMENT

This Fabrication and Services Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made effective as of this 1st day of January, 2021 (the “(“Effective Date”) by and between Myomo, Inc. a Delaware corporation, whose principal executive offices are located at One Broadway, 14th Floor, Cambridge, MA 02142 (the “Company”) and Geauga Rehabilitation Engineering, Inc. (“GRE”) an Ohio corporation, with a business address of 13376 Ravenna Road, Chardon, OH. 44024. Hereinafter, referred to as the “Parties”.

The Company and GRE, for valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

 

  1)

SCOPE OF WORK:

GRE shall provide central fabrication and services (the “Work”) for the Company, including, but not limited to:

 

   

MyoPro® orthosis fabrication of each customer order from a certified Myomo customer;

 

   

MARK Units non-custom units with adjustable orthotic components;

 

   

MyoPal® orthosis fabrication of each customer order from a certified Myomo customer;

 

   

Orders from the Company for Demonstration (“Demo”) Units of MyoPro® or MyoPal® Orthosis;

Company will ship its MyoPro Kits (“Kits”) to GRE. Company will ship kits based on customer orders or minimum stock quantities subject to adjustment by the Parties on a periodic basis. Kit components may be shipped in packaging with single quantities of each item such as the motor unit, sensor assembly, battery and charger, while other items may be shipped in bulk, such as documentation, so they can be drawn from to fulfill each order. Accessories such as laptops, tablets and other mobile devices, carrying bags and merchandising materials may also be included in orders based upon Company’s sales campaigns and customer orders.

Custom MyoPro orthosis fabrication shall include all rigid frames, thermo-formed plastic, soft goods (padding, strapping, and harnessing), and fasteners and assembly.

Kits shall include MyoPro motor units, sensor assembly, battery and case, charger and product documentation, finger components, axel adapters, and product carry cases.

Each party shall source and stock components and supplies for their respective portion of the product.

 

   

Company shall provide GRE expected volume forecasts, in writing with management signoff every quarter with updates to those forecasts completed monthly.


   

GRE will inspect incoming Cogmedix motors and other parts that Company instructs GRE to perform inspections @ $75/hr.

 

   

GRE to charge $2.10, per sq. ft per month for the storage of all Company kits, Lunas, HCB, foam, bubble wrap and Hanke+ Protect bags. (Storage and Warehouse fee).

 

   

GRE shall charge the Company a $25 administration fee when orders are modified or otherwise incomplete, such as but not limited to coming off hold, put on hold, return to fabrication, require collection of missing elements such as color, measurements, or other invalid order intake. For clarity, the administrative fee shall not be applied to the first occurrence of orders being placed on insurance hold.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, incoming casts are not opened and touched for 48 hours after being received. After the 48 hour quarantine, normal intake and time for fabrication procedures begin. The COVID-19 environment is dynamic and subject to change. Both parties agree work together to resolve any production delays caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, neither party may terminate this Agreement prior to the expiration of the Term as defined in Section 25 with or without cause during a temporary shutdown or due to a COVID-19 outbreak.

CHANGES TO THE WORK:

Company and GRE may, by mutual written consent, make changes to the scope of Work.

TIME OF COMPLETION:

Revenue Units to be performed under this Agreement shall be completed within 7 business days from GRE receipt of the Valid Order (“the Completion Period”).

If a Valid Order is received past 12:00pm (after allowing for COVID-19 incoming hold described in Section 1), the Completion Period begins the following business day. A Valid Order is defined by a patient mold and order form that is within the tolerance set forth by the Company’s Valid Order process. This includes measurements that fall within the accepted Company order intake standards as defined in the order intake quality system, such as usable hand photos as applicable, a purchase order, and completed order form. Business days are non-weekend and non-Federal holidays. GRE shall work such reasonable hours with facility and personnel as determined by GRE to complete the Work in accordance with the Valid Order as specified within that time frame. Company is not to send GRE orders that are not otherwise on hold.

Myomo is responsible for vetting and approving all orders prior to being received at GRE. Incomplete or invalid orders shall be subject to the administrative fee as discussed in Section 1. When Company authorizes a fabrication order, in writing, in spite of an intake non-conformance, such as bad hand photos, GRE shall not be held accountable for fit metrics.

GRE will fabricate to the best of its ability a well-fitting brace based on the intake measurements and molds

At the Company’s request, rapid response service, when available, may be offered to the Company. An additional $200.00 will be charged to Company and approved by written PO. A rapid response request is chargeable when Company asks for an order less than the normal tum-around time of seven business days. GRE, in good faith, will always try and get orders out less than 7 business days if overall volume allows.

At the Company’s request, GRE shall accelerate the completion of RMA’s and GRE agrees that the processing time of RMA’s shall not exceed seven (7) business days from date of receipt. Should a request to accelerate RMA processing result in a potential delay in production of revenue orders, GRE and Company will mutually agree as to what revenue orders will be delayed without penalty to GRE. GRE is not able to control delays caused by inventory or other kit or part shortages or non-working Company components. The Company shall be charged for any RMA associated with fit remakes when the patient volume or size has changed. The Company shall not be charged for RMAs with regard to braces not made to the patient measurements or mold.


  6)

GRE shall maintain compliance for specific parts, identified in the bill of materials and device master record that is consistent with the Myomo Quality Management System as applicable for the work performed for Myomo. For additional compliance requests required at GRE, GRE and Company shall negotiate in good faith on new charges to Company for extra time, labor, documentation, or other requirements set for by Company. Should the Company require additional or new quality control measures beyond the current Myomo Quality Management System, GRE can negotiate in good faith extra charges for new quality requirements.
