Exhibit 10.15

 

Agreement

 

This Agreement (this "Agreement"), effective as of September 20, 2018 (the
"Effective Date"), is by and between MYnd Analytics, Inc., ("Company") and RSJ
INVESTMENTS SICAV A.S. ACTING IN RESPECT OF ITS SUB-FUND (PODFOND) RSJ GRADUS
PODFOND, RSJ INVESTMENT SICAV A.S. ("RSJ"). Company and RSJ may be referred to
herein collectively as the "Parties" or individually as a "Party."

 

WHEREAS, Company desires to license or distribute the Company’s technology
and/or intellectual property in Europe; and

 

WHEREAS, RSJ desires a right of first refusal to license or distribute the
Company’s technology and/or intellectual property in Europe for the Term (as
defined below) of this Agreement.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants, terms, and conditions
set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

 

1.             RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL

 

1.1           Right of First Refusal. For a period from the date hereof until
September 30, 2019 (“Term”), the Company shall not enter into any agreement with
any third party that includes the grant by the Company to such third party of
any license or distribution rights with respect to any of the Company’s
technology and/or intellectual property in Europe (“Rights”), unless the Company
first offers RSJ the right to license or distribute such technology in Europe in
accordance with this Section 1.

 

1.2.          Process. Prior to the Company entering into any agreement relating
to the Rights during the Term, the Company shall first give written notice
thereof to RSJ (the “ROFR Notice”). The ROFR Notice shall identify the proposed
technology to be covered by the agreement, describe all material terms of the
proposed agreement and offer RSJ the option to provide to the Company, within 30
calendar days of RSJ’s receipt of the ROFR Notice (the “ROFR Period”), a final
proposed agreement (which may be similar to the terms in such Notice or on such
other terms as RSJ shall elect) pursuant to which the Company will grant to RSJ,
or a wholly-owned subsidiary of RSJ designated by RSJ, license or distribution
rights with respect to the Company’s technology and/or intellectual property in
Europe (the “RSJ Proposed Agreement”). During the time period while RSJ is
considering these terms, the Company shall discuss the proposed terms with RSJ
as reasonably requested. The delivery by RSJ, or a wholly-owned subsidiary of
RSJ (the “RSJ Subsidiary”), to the Company of the RSJ Proposed Agreement shall
constitute a binding offer by RSJ, or the RSJ Subsidiary, to the Company to
enter into the RSJ Proposed Agreement on the terms set forth therein, which may
be accepted by the Company at any time within 30 calendar days of the Company’s
receipt of the RSJ Proposed Agreement (the “ROFR Acceptance Period”).

 

1.3           End of Period. If RSJ, or the RSJ Subsidiary, fails to deliver to
the Company, before the expiration of the ROFR Period, the RSJ Proposed
Agreement, then the Company shall be free to enter into an agreement with any
third party with respect to the Rights on such terms as the Company shall elect
in its sole discretion.

 

1.4           Acceptance. If RSJ, or the RSJ Subsidiary, delivers to the
Company, before the expiration of the ROFR Period, the RSJ Proposed Agreement,
then the Company shall in good faith compare the terms of the RSJ Proposed
Agreement to the material terms of the third party agreement as set out in the
ROFR Notice, and, if the Company in good faith determines (taking into account
all of the terms contained therein, both financial and otherwise, but not taking
into account any terms of the third party agreement that were not set out in the
ROFR Notice) that the value of the RSJ Proposed Agreement to the Company equals
or exceeds the value of the third party agreement to the Company, then the
Company shall enter into the RSJ Proposed Agreement. If the Company in good
faith determines (taking into account all of the terms contained therein, both
financial and otherwise, but not taking into account any terms of the third
party agreement that were not set out in the ROFR Notice) that the value of the
RSJ Proposed Agreement to the Company is less than the value of the third party
agreement to the Company, then the Company may enter into the third party
agreement without any further obligation to RSJ under this Section 1.

 

 

 

 

1.5           Transfer of License. If the Company and RSJ, or the Company and
the RSJ Subsidiary, enter into the RSJ Proposed Agreement, RSJ or the RSJ
Subsidiary may assign the license or distribution rights with respect to the
Company’s technology and/or intellectual property in Europe to the RSJ
Subsidiary or any other wholly-owned subsidiary of RSJ.

 

2.             CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. From time to time during the Term,
either Party may disclose or make available to the other Party information about
its business affairs, products, confidential intellectual property, trade
secrets, third-party confidential information, and other sensitive or
proprietary information, whether orally or in written, electronic, or other form
or media, and whether or not marked, designated or otherwise identified as
"confidential" (collectively, "Confidential Information"). Confidential
Information does not include information that, at the time of disclosure is: (a)
in the public domain; (b) known to the receiving Party at the time of
disclosure; (c) rightfully obtained by the receiving Party on a non-confidential
basis from a third party; or (d) independently developed by the receiving Party.
The receiving Party shall not disclose the disclosing Party's Confidential
Information to any person or entity, except to the receiving Party's employees
and advisors who have a need to know the Confidential Information for the
receiving Party to exercise its rights or perform its obligations hereunder.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party may disclose Confidential Information
to the limited extent required (i) in order to comply with the order of a court
or other governmental body, or as otherwise necessary to comply with applicable
law, provided that the Party making the disclosure pursuant to the order shall
first have given written notice to the other Party and made a reasonable effort
to obtain a protective order; or (ii) to establish a Party's rights under this
Agreement, including to make required court filings. On the expiration or
termination of this Agreement, the receiving Party shall promptly return to the
disclosing Party all copies, whether in written, electronic, or other form or
media, of the disclosing Party's Confidential Information, or destroy all such
copies and certify in writing to the disclosing Party that such Confidential
Information has been destroyed. Each Party's obligations of non-disclosure with
regard to Confidential Information are effective as of the Effective Date and
will expire five years from the date first disclosed to the receiving Party;
provided, however, with respect to any Confidential Information that constitutes
a trade secret (as determined under applicable law), such obligations of
non-disclosure will survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement for
as long as such Confidential Information remains subject to trade secret
protection under applicable law.
