Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

The Registrant is incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware. Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or DGCL, provides that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any persons who are, or are threatened to be made, parties to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of such corporation), by reason of the fact that such person was an officer, director, employee or agent of such corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such person as an officer, director, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, provided that such person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation’s best interests and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was illegal. A Delaware corporation may indemnify any persons who are, or are threatened to be made, a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation by reason of the fact that such person was a director, officer, employee or agent of such corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit provided such person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation’s best interests except that no indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if the officer or director is adjudged to be liable to the corporation. Where an officer or director is successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action referred to above, the corporation must indemnify him or her against the expenses which such officer or director has actually and reasonably incurred. The Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws provide for the indemnification of directors and officers of the Registrant to the fullest extent permitted under the DGCL.

Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL permits a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation shall not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duties as a director, except for liability:

 

   

for any transaction from which the director derives an improper personal benefit;

 

   

for acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

 

II-2


 

   

for improper payment of dividends or redemptions of shares; or

 

   

for any breach of a director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders.

The Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws include such a provision. Expenses incurred by any officer or director in defending any such action, suit or proceeding in advance of its final disposition shall be paid by the Registrant upon delivery to the Registrant of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such director or officer, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified by the Registrant.

As permitted by Delaware law, the Registrant has entered into indemnity agreements with each of its directors and executive officers that require the Registrant to indemnify such persons against any and all expenses (including attorneys’ fees), witness fees, damages, judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts incurred (including expenses of a derivative action) in connection with any action, suit or proceeding, whether actual or threatened, to which any such person may be made a party by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, an officer or an employee of the Registrant or any of its affiliated enterprises, provided that such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Registrant and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. The indemnification agreements also set forth certain procedures that will apply in the event of a claim for indemnification thereunder.

At present, there is no pending litigation or proceeding involving a director, officer or key employee of the Registrant as to which indemnification is being sought nor is the Registrant aware of any threatened litigation that may result in claims for indemnification by any officer or director of the Registrant.

The Registrant has an insurance policy covering its officers and directors with respect to certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act or otherwise.

Prior to the completion of this offering, the Registrant will enter into an underwriting agreement which provides that the underwriters are obligated, under some circumstances, to indemnify the Registrant’s directors, officers and controlling persons against specified liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

Reference is made to the following documents filed as exhibits to this Registration Statement regarding relevant indemnification provisions described above and elsewhere herein:

Item 15. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

From January 1, 2004 through April 30, 2007, the Registrant granted stock options to purchase an aggregate of 2,360,530 shares of the Registrant’s common stock (net of expirations and cancellations) to its employees, directors and consultants under its Third Amended and Restated 1996 Incentive Stock Option, Nonqualified Stock Option and Restricted Stock Purchase Plan, or 1996 Plan, and 2004 Incentive Stock Option, Nonqualified Stock Option and Restricted Stock Purchase Plan, or 2004 Plan. These options have exercise prices ranging from $8.25 to $42.65 per share, with a weighted average exercise price of $18.88 per share. Of these, options to purchase an aggregate of 548,350 shares of common stock have been exercised through April 30, 2007 for aggregate consideration of approximately $5.5 million, at exercise prices ranging from $8.25 to $14.00 per share. The offers, sales and issuances of these securities were deemed to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act in reliance on Rule 701 in that the transactions were under compensatory benefit plans and contracts relating to compensation as provided under Rule 701, and Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act as transactions by an issuer not involving a public offering. The recipients of such securities were the Registrant’s employees, directors or bona fide consultants and received the securities under the 1996 Plan or 2004 Plan. Appropriate

legends were affixed to the securities issued in these transactions. Each of the recipients of securities in these transactions had adequate access, through employment, business or other relationships, to information about the Registrant.

Item 17. Undertakings

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the underwriters at the closing specified in the underwriting agreement, certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:

(i) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.

(ii) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

If the registrant is subject to Rule 430C, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities: The undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

  T   

where “T” is the total number of hours that the Equipment is. typically used per quarter (determined by multiplying the number of hours per day that the Equipment is typically used by the number of days per week that the Equipment is typically used, and multiplying the result by 13 weeks in a quarter), and “TNF” is the number of hours the Equipment or any component of the Equipment is not functional during the quarter (the hours calculated will only include those hours that the Equipment would typically be in use).

The check amount should be reconcilable with the Fee calculation on the applicable sales and revenue report. The reconciliation of the previous quarters’ estimated payments should be adjusted against the appropriate monthly estimated payment as scheduled above. Please also include this reconciliation information on the check remittance advice.

The following is an example of the reconciliation payment that would have been made for the first quarter of the year 2003. It shows the information that a supplier must specify on the remittance advice of a quarterly Fee reconciliation check. All other non-reconciliation months would require only the first three columns of information below to accompany payment.

6. Designation Form : Attached hereto is a Designation Form which, if reasonably deemed necessary by Seller, shall be used by Participating Members to indicate their desired level of participation under the Volume Tiers as well as designate whether they wish to invoke the Aggregation Pricing Option described in Section 4 above and direct their Authorized Distributors to automatically substitute generically equivalent Products covered under this Agreement in lieu of any products described in the Participating Member’s purchase orders which are not covered under this Agreement. The Designation Form shall not be required for Tier 1 or access pricing, or if Seller already possesses sufficient information indicating Participating Members’ preferences with respect to these issues (“Member Preference Information”) or Seller and Purchasing Partners mutually agree that the Designation Form will not be utilized. Purchasing Partners shall have the right to confirm the accuracy of any such Member Preference Information prior to Seller’s reliance thereon. In instances where Seller reasonably determines that completion of the Designation Form by Participating Members is necessary for the administration of this Agreement, Seller hereby acknowledges that Participating Members which purchase Products without completing and returning the Designation Form shall nonetheless be deemed to have purchased Products under this Agreement at Volume Tier 1 and without application of the Aggregation Pricing Option or Automatic Substitution until such time as a Designation Form is completed and returned which indicates a different preference. The Purchasing Partners Administrative Fees described in Section 10.1 of the Agreement shall be due and payable by Seller with respect to all purchases of Products by Participating Members whether or not the applicable Participating Member has completed and returned the Designation Form. Seller and Purchasing Partners shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to implement a system whereby Designation Forms (or Participating Members’ Volume Tier, and Aggregation Pricing Option and Automatic Substitution elections in lieu of the Designation Form) may be transmitted electronically rather than in paper form.

 

7. Reporting : Upon request, Seller shall provide Purchasing Partners copies of Participating Members’ Designation Forms and any other information in Seller’s possession indicating Participating Members’ Volume Tier.

MINORITY, WOMAN-OWNED AND SMALL BUSINESSES POLICY

 

SELLER:    Masimo Corporation
CONTRACT NUMBER:    PP-NS-347
PRODUCT CATEGORY:    Pulse Oximeters

Purchasing Partners desires to promote an environment that facilitates equal opportunity and access by qualified diversity suppliers, (i.e., small, minority, and woman-owned businesses) desiring to provide quality goods and services to Participating Members. Purchasing Partners is committed to encouraging such access through its procurement efforts. Purchasing Partners believes that implementing this policy is good business practice consistent with its mission and that of its members. Furthermore, Purchasing Partners and its affiliates recognize and are sensitive to the high level of importance that Premier members place on the development of minority, woman-owned and small businesses in their local communities.

Purchasing Partners will make every effort to offer a diverse supplier portfolio that meets or exceeds its’ members’ supplier diversity policies. In the event that Purchasing Partners’ supplier diversity portfolio does not meet particular members’ needs, Purchasing Partners’ policy will be to recommend to the Group Purchasing Policy Committee (the “Committee”) that it grant compliance exemption requests from affected members to the extent necessary to enable such members to comply with applicable federal, state, local or self- imposed supplier diversity policies. Any such exemption request is subject to the Committee’s normal approval process.

Purchasing Partners’ contracted suppliers are encouraged to spend a minimum of three percent (3%) of their annual production and raw material costs with minority-owned businesses and a minimum of two percent (2%) of such costs with women-owned businesses. Seller acknowledges that, subject to Purchasing Partners’ compliance with its existing contractual obligations, Purchasing Partners may enter into group purchasing agreements with any diverse suppliers and that one of the main factors underlying Purchasing Partners’ decision to enter into such agreements could be contracted suppliers’ inability or unwillingness to comply with such supplier diversity expenditure targets. Seller shall consider working with any diversity supplier reasonably recommended by Purchasing Partners to assist Seller and Participating Members in complying with the objectives described in this policy.

Seller shall provide a bi-annual report, documenting its expenditures with respect to diverse suppliers. Reporting is to commence within six months of the Effective Date and shall comply with the reporting dates and format set forth in the Premier Business Partner’s website, located under Industry Initiatives and is labeled Supplier Diversity 2nd Tier Report. Only reported purchases from minority and women-owned businesses that are certified by a valid national, state or local certification agency shall qualify for consideration under this policy. Each reported small business entity must have completed a self certification available in the format set forth at www.premierinc.com/supplierdiversity in order to qualify for consideration under this policy.

Suggested certifying agencies are:

 

   

National Minority Suppliers Development Council ( www.umsdcus.org )

 

   

Women’s Business Enterprise National Council ( www.wbenc.com )

 

   

Small Business Administration ( www.sba.gov )

Supplier Diversity Plan : Seller’s diversity plan and compliance with this policy will be discussed during Seller’s periodic business reviews with Purchasing Partners.

In the event the Samples fail to meet the Specifications, including engineering tests and field customer evaluations, as determined by BUYER, in its sole discretion, BUYER shall notify the SELLER, pursuant to Section 10.2 of this Agreement. Within 5 days of the receipt of such notice from BUYER, SELLER must notify BUYER of its intention to remedy the failure, setting forth in reasonable detail its assessment of the failure and the time period required to remedy the cause of failure. If SELLER’s proposed remedy or time frame is not acceptable to BUYER, in its sole discretion, BUYER may cancel the Initial Purchase Order, and any other Purchase Order submitted by BUYER, without penalty.

2. Med One will commit to a minimum of $20 million to the program for calendar year 2004 and each year thereafter. We are willing to participate in as much of this business as your sales organization can originate – with no maximum amount.
3. The transactions will be structured as we have previously negotiated in prior meetings and discussions. Med One’s discount rate for all business funded in this manner will be based on the US Treasury Constant Maturities interest rate (as quoted in the Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) for the week immediately preceding the request for funding. We will use the term that corresponds to the term of your transaction – or the next higher term if there is not an exact term match. Med One will add 350 basis points to this rate index for purposes of pricing this program only.
4. The documents will consist of the following:

5. Funding under this program will be non-recourse to Masimo as it pertains to customer’s performance. Notwithstanding this, Masimo will provide a fixed monthly payment to Med One based on the calculations of each specific transaction and will pay this monthly payment monthly each month during the term unless Med One is properly notified of a default by the customer. Masimo will set up an account that Med One will draft directly for each monthly payment.
6. In addition to this funding program, Med One will make available to the sales organization of Masimo, all of Med One’s current lease, rental and financing options for the use by Masimo’s customer’s on a direct basis.

Monthly Total Equipment Amortization equals the total monthly payment which shall be due and payable by Vendor to Med One monthly under this Agreement within 5 business days following the end of the month in which such amount is paid by the Customer, up to a cumulative amount not to exceed the Total Equipment Amortization, as set forth above.

Subject to the terms of this Assignment, Vendor hereby assigns all of its right, title and interest in and to the Equipment and the proceeds pertaining to the Equipment Increment under or by virtue of the Agreement to Med One and agrees that all amounts to become due or collected under Exhibit A for purchase of Products by Customer shall be designated proportionally between the “Equipment Increment” and the “Product Increment.”

Vendor shall have responsibility to invoice Customer for all purchases under Exhibit A and to accept all proceeds paid by the Customer under Exhibit A and to remit to Med One all assigned proceeds hereunder, provided, however, that Vendor is not liable to Med One for amounts due from Customer that are not collected.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, Vendor shall, at such time as Vendor determines is appropriate, or at such time as Med One may reasonably request (i) make at least one collection telephone call (talk to Customer or leave a descriptive message) and (ii) send at least one collection demand letter to Customer if the Customer does not pay within invoice terms.

Vendor and Med One hereby agree as follows:

 

  1. Vendor warrants Exhibit A is, to Vendor’s knowledge, genuine and enforceable in accordance with its terms and is the only agreement in effect with Customer with respect to the sale or use of the Equipment. Vendor has no knowledge of any facts which would impair the validity of Exhibit A or this Assignment, or the truth of any statement or warranty therein. The Vendor’s knowledge includes the fraudulent activities of Vendor’s employees and agents.

 

  2. Vendor has not, before the execution and delivery of this Assignment, assigned or pledged Equipment Increment payments due or to become due under Exhibit A to anyone or any entity other than Med One, and Vendor has no knowledge that there are any attachments or other liens which might impair Vendor’s right to receive all Equipment Increment payments due and to become due under Exhibit A other than this Assignment; and, Vendor has full right, power and authority to assign Vendor’s right, title and interest in the proceeds received by or due to Vendor pertaining to the Equipment Increment to Med One.

 

  3.

Immediately prior to the execution of Exhibit A and delivery thereof by the Customer to Vendor, Vendor was vested with good and unencumbered title to the Equipment and had full right, power and authority to the same; the description of the Equipment in Exhibit A is accurate and complete in all material respects. Upon shipment of the Equipment to the Customer, assuming a first priority security interest has been created and perfected, Vendor transfers to Med One, good title to the Equipment, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances except

 

4


 

for the rights and interests of Customer as described in Exhibit A . Vendor’s warranties pertaining to the Equipment and the Customer to Vendor’s knowledge shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by both Med One and Customer, either jointly or severally. At Med One’s request, Vendor shall use its best commercial efforts to cause UCC-1 Financing Statements in form requested by Med One to be delivered to Med One.

 

  4. Notwithstanding the Assignment made hereby, Vendor shall perform all of the obligations and duties imposed upon it by Exhibit A in accordance with the terms of Exhibit A . Med One shall have no obligations of the Vendor under Exhibit A . Subject to the terms of this Assignment, Vendor agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold Med One harmless from all claims and liability arising out of Vendor’s obligations under Exhibit A and the purchase, use, possession or operation of the Equipment.

 

  5. If Customer and Vendor enter into an arrangement with respect to service and preventative maintenance for the Equipment, then Vendor warrants to Med One that Vendor and its successors and assigns will be responsible to provide such service and preventative maintenance function relating to the Equipment in accordance with the terms of such arrangement and will hold Med One harmless with respect to claims or liabilities in connection with such service and preventative maintenance.

 

  6. Vendor will make all payments under this Assignment to Med One or to such other person and at such place, as Med One may direct, and will promptly deliver to Med One all notices and correspondence reasonably requested by Med One to exercise Med One’s rights under Exhibit A and this Assignment.

 

  7. Vendor waives presentment and demand for payment, protest or notice of the non-payment and notice as to all agreements and related documents now and hereafter assigned or endorsed to Med One. Vendor subordinates to any rights Med One may now or hereafter have against Customer under Exhibit A , and any rights Vendor may now or hereafter have or acquire by reason of payment to Med One of any payments under Exhibit A or this Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Vendor shall pay to Med One the “Equipment Increment Per Item” for each product Customer actually acquires from Vendor under the Agreement and for which Customer actually pays. Further, in the event Customer makes only a partial payment (the “Partial Payment”) for Products supplied by Vendor under the Agreement, Vendor shall pay to Med One an amount equal to the Monthly Total Equipment Amortization referred to above each month during the term of Exhibit A , but only to the extent that such amounts are received by Vendor. Each month of the term shall stand on its own for purposes of this section.

 

  8.

If Vendor, or as applicable, Customer, materially breach any of their representations, warranties or obligations under this Assignment or Exhibit A that are not cured during the time period provided therein, Med One shall be entitled

 

5


 

to exercise all of its legal, contractual and equitable rights against Vendor, Customer and the Equipment, including, without limitation, the right to repossess the Equipment from Customer.

 

  9. Vendor shall keep complete and accurate records of Customer’s compliance with the Agreement (i.e., quantities ordered, etc.) and payments to Vendor pursuant to the Agreement and Vendor shall provide Med One within fifteen (15) days of the end of each calendar month a written report showing the payments made by Customer to Vendor under the Agreement in such month. Upon Med One’s written request and not more than once in any calendar year, Vendor shall permit an independent certified public accounting firm of nationally recognized standing, selected by Med One and reasonably acceptable to Vendor, at Med One’s expense, to have access during normal business hours to such of Vendor’s records reasonably necessary to verify the accuracy of the above referenced reports. Notwithstanding, and in addition to the foregoing, in the event any payment owed by Customer to Vendor under the Agreement becomes more than sixty (60) days past due, Med One, prior to exercising its rights and remedies under this Assignment, and at its sole option and cost, shall have the right, upon reasonable notice and during regular business hours, to view Vendor’s records with respect to such delinquent Customer for the sole purpose of verifying the nature and extent of such Customer’s default. Med One shall have the right to all Service charges (defined in Schedule B # 3 of Vendor’s Terms and Conditions) pertaining to the Equipment Increment (as that term is defined herein).

 

  10. At such time that any payment by Customer to Vendor under the Agreement becomes more than sixty (60) days past due, Med One, at its sole option may exercise all of its rights and remedies under this Assignment with respect to the Equipment and the Customer, including repossessing the Equipment and filing a deficiency lawsuit against Customer. In such event, Vendor shall notify Customer of such assignment and Vendor shall execute any further documentation relating to such assignment that Med One reasonably deems necessary for such assignment and the exercise of Med One’s rights and remedies hereunder.

 

  11. Upon payment in full of the Total Equipment Amortization (set forth above) and so long as Customer is not in material default under the terms of Exhibit A , within thirty (30) days thereafter Med One will transfer, convey and assign to Customer all of its right, title and interest in and to those units of Equipment free and clear of all liens and encumbrances. Additionally, within such thirty-day period, Med One will file a UCC-3 or other forms for the purpose of releasing all liens on such fully-purchased Equipment.

 

  12. Vendor has to its knowledge complied and will comply with all requirements imposed upon it under the Agreement or under any law which may govern the Agreement.

 

6


  13. In the event of a breach of the terms of this Assignment, the breaching party shall pay all enforcement and collection costs of the non-breaching party, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses.

 

  14. This Assignment shall be governed by the laws of the state of Utah.

 

  15. This Assignment is binding upon the successors and assigns of the parties and along with the exhibits hereto constitutes their entire agreement with respect to the matters discussed herein. Med One may assign its rights under this Assignment without the consent of Vendor. All oral representations or prior negotiations are deemed to have been merged into this Assignment. This Assignment may not be changed or modified except by a writing signed by all of the parties.

 

  16. Following termination or expiration of the Agreement as set forth in Exhibit A prior to Customer completing all of its payment obligations thereunder, in the event Med One desires to sell or transfer the Equipment to a third party, Med One shall first offer to sell the Equipment to Vendor on mutually acceptable terms, which shall never be greater than any amount remaining to be paid to Med One under an Exhibit A contract relating to such Equipment. If the parties cannot agree on acceptable terms after a period of 30 days, Med One may sell the Equipment to a third party, provided that the terms of such sale are no more favorable than the terms offered Vendor.

 

  17. Vendor will provide Med One with notice of, and Med One shall approve, any proposed material, good faith and commercially reasonable renegotiated changes to signed Exhibit A contracts.

 

  18. The terms of this Assignment shall be deemed confidential and shall not, except as set forth in paragraph 10 of this Assignment, be disclosed by Med One or Vendor to anyone except their employees and professional advisors with a need to know and Customer, unless required by law.

 

  19. All notices and other communications required or permitted herein shall be in writing and shall be delivered personally (which shall include delivery by courier or reputable delivery service) or sent by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested or sent by facsimile transmission. Items delivered personally or by facsimile shall be deemed delivered on the date of delivery; items sent by certified or registered mail shall be deemed delivered three (3) days after mailing. The address of the parties for purposes of this provision are set forth in the Preamble of this Assignment.

 

  20. Vendor’s execution and delivery of this Assignment will not constitute a breach, default or event of default under any other written instrument, business organizational document or agreement to which Vendor is bound.

 

  21.

At any time during the term of this Agreement, vendor may repurchase the Equipment and all rights granted in this agreement to Med One by paying to Med

 

7


 

One an amount equal to the unamortized portion of the Equipment Purchase Price as of that date.

 

  22. Notwithstanding anything else herein, Med One understands and agrees that the enforceability of Exhibit A is subject to standard legal exceptions (e.g., bankruptcy, actual authorization, public policy, specific enforcement, etc.) and that Vendor is not a guarantor of enforceability of Exhibit A or for collection of amounts due from a Customer. Med One agrees to complete its own financial and legal due diligence as it feels is required prior to acceptance of the assignment herein and assumes the risk of enforceability and collection of the amounts under Exhibit A . For purposes of this Agreement, Vendor’s knowledge is made based on the documents provided and understanding of the CFO of Vendor, without investigation or inquiry, and without any obligation to update Med One upon any change in such knowledge.

The date of this Assignment shall be the same date as the Effective Date of the Agreement.

In other words, if a Masimo Licensed Device, sensor or accessory is Enabled to measure more than Vital Signs Parameters, then the difference between that standard product (the one that measures only Vital Signs Parameters) and the price charged for a similar type product that can also measure the Non-Vital Signs Parameter/s is the amount that will be multiplied by the 10% royalty. The differential is calculated base on the ASP on a region by region and product by product basis.

(b) For handheld products, such as Rad-57, the entire price of the product is multiplied by the 10% royalty.

(c) For multiparameter devices (i.e., a device that uses more than one sensor at a time), the Royalty Base will be (i) the Net Selling Price of the device, times (ii) the number of Non-Vital-Signs Parameter that the device is Enabled to measure, divided by (iii) the total number of Parameters that the device is Enabled to measure (excluding insignificant parameters such as temperature, PI, PVI, and Pulse Rate).

(d) Hospital Contracts . MASIMO will pay a 10% royalty on the fraction of all revenue from the contract signed after January 1, 2009 for the placement of Masimo Licensed Devices (for a committed sensor contract) in relation to the fraction of Enabled rainbow devices compared Masimo Licensed Devices with only Vital Signs Parameters Enabled as follows:

(10%)(Total revenue invoiced under contract on running basis)(# Masimo Licensed Devices on average with Non-Vital Signs Parameters Enabled.

 

14



(# Masimo Licensed Devices on average with Non-Vital Signs Parameters enabled + # Masimo Licensed Devices on average with only Vital Signs Parameters enabled).

(e) Non-Vital Signs Parameter upgrades and sensors sold separately or in addition by Masimo shall be considered a separate revenue source for which a 10% royalty shall apply.

8.1. MASIMO Probes . LABS agrees that it will not modify Masimo’s SpO 2 Sensors to be used with other than the MASIMO Boards, other boards designed by MASIMO for Vital Signs Monitoring or boards made by Labs under the licenses herein. LABS will purchase Sensors for Vital Signs Monitoring applications exclusively from MASIMO unless the measurements for Vital Signs Monitoring applications and Non-Vital Signs Monitoring are best integrated in one sensor, as determined by LABS in its sole discretion. In such case, LABS may design, develop and manufacture (including manufacturing according to any MASIMO design) integrated sensors and pay MASIMO a royalty of ten percent (10%) of LABS’ Vital Signs Monitoring Portion of the Net Selling Price of integrated sensors; provided, however, that LABS undertakes all regulatory, service and warranty obligations with respect to such sensors and that such sensors pass MASIMO’s validation and verification process such that the full capability of MASIMO SET is obtained. LABS will pay for such validation and verification services at MASIMO’s standard rates then in effect for third party OEM products. MASIMO SET will be enabled for these SpO 2 Sensors or other sensors which include MASIMO Technology for Vital Signs Monitoring. The Vital Signs Monitoring Portion is the average selling price for the similar product that measures only Vital Signs Parameters. The differential is calculated base on the ASP on a region by region and product by product basis.

8.2. Engineering Support . During the period that MASIMO is funding LABS’ research and development, or there has been no Change of Control, MASIMO shall provide reasonable engineering support to LABS for the integration of MASIMO SET into LABS Licensed Devices and Stand Alone Licensed Devices and for the manufacturing of any Masimo Products as permitted under this Agreement, by assisting Labs with engineering and technical resources, sharing lab equipment, providing prototyping parts and components, legal and financial services, delivering a copy of all MASIMO Software for MASIMO Technology and sufficient information and documentation (such as circuit diagrams, source code and specifications) to permit LABS to reasonably make, use and modify such MASIMO Software and to reasonably make, use and modify the MASIMO Technology. After a Change in Control, MASIMO shall continue to deliver, as reasonably requested by LABS, sufficient information and documentation to permit LABS to reasonably use MASIMO Technology in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. After a Change of Control, if Labs asks MASIMO for more than what MASIMO believes in its sole discretion is reasonable engineering assistance, MASIMO may charge LABS for those services at its actual costs for such support. To the extent necessary, engineering support will apply in reverse with respect to any LABS Technology licensed to MASIMO on a pari passu basis.

17.3. Intentions of Escrow . As a matter of clarity, the purpose of the escrow is only to reduce the risk of unavailability of necessary information to allow a licensed Party to continue to achieve the purposes anticipated by this Agreement by having the temporary license to such information in situations where there has been an uncured breach of this Agreement, and not alter existing economic or other obligations under this Agreement, or allow or provide for any permanent transfer of any rights or assets from one Party to the other as a result of a release of information from the escrow contemplated in this Article 17.
