(b)       Statement
of Work. On or after the Effective Date, the Parties may enter into one or more written statement(s) of work mutually agreed
upon by the Parties (each, a “SOW”) to describe specific consulting services, projects, and obligations of each
Party with respect to the Collaboration described in such SOW. All SOWs must be approved by the Joint Steering Committee (as defined
below) prior to the commencement thereof. Each SOW shall describe the respective obligations of and services to be provided by
each Party and, once executed by each Party, shall be incorporated herein by reference as though fully set forth herein. If there
is a conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any SOW, the provisions of this Agreement shall control unless the SOW
expressly and specifically provides otherwise by reference to this Section 2(b) with intent to modify.


(c)       Change
Order. Changes to any SOW shall become effective only upon the execution of a written change order (“Change Order”)
by the authorized representatives of each of the Parties. Each Change Order shall describe the impact of the change on the respective
obligations of each Party, and once executed by each Party, shall be incorporated herein by reference as though fully set forth
herein. For each Change Order, the Parties will evaluate in good faith any change that increases or decreases the scope or magnitude
of performance of the Collaboration, corresponding commercially reasonable increases or decreases in compensation to a Party, appropriate
and commercially reasonable revisions to the services and deliverable schedule, and the availability of the required resources
and prior commitments to other customers.


(d)       Research
and Development Commitments. The Parties acknowledge and agree that MRI will engage AMS and certain Key Personnel to perform
development services in connection with the Development of the New Products and the Collaboration (“Development Services”).
Promptly following the Effective Date, the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to agree upon the scope of the Development Services
to be performed by AMS and the Key Personnel, the fees, milestones, and milestone payments related thereto in a separate SOW to
be mutually agreed upon and executed by the Parties (the “Development Plan”) no later than ninety (90) days
after the Effective Date. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, MRI shall exercise general power of supervision and
to direct and control over the results of the development of the New Products to assure satisfactory performance, including the
right to inspect, the right to stop work, the right to make suggestions or recommendations as to the details of the work, and the
right to request modifications to the scope of the Development Services as necessary for the development of the New Products. AMS
shall perform the Development Services as set forth in the Development Plan and as otherwise reasonably directed by MRI and has
the right to determine the method, details and means of performing the Development Services requested by MRI. To the extent that
MRI directs AMS in writing to stop work under the Development Plan, the Parties agree that for a maximum applicable period of ninety
(90) days from the date AMS receives written notice to AMS to cease work under the Development Plan, or from any later date specified
in that notice, (the “Wind Down Period”), MRI shall reimburse AMS the amount to be mutually agreed upon by the
Parties in a SOW. The types of costs to be reimbursed by MRI shall include AMS’s reasonable, non-cancellable costs and expenses
that cannot be reasonably allocated to other licensees or AMS internal or external development 



    	 	4	 



     


    

work and would be actually incurred
by AMS pursuant to the Development Plan if MRI had not directed AMS to stop performance, and amounts, including salaries and benefits,
incurred by AMS for AMS Personnel that would have performed the work under the Development Plan, and such amounts shall be calculated
based on the percentage of time AMS dedicated such AMS Personnel to the Development Services and the rates applied to such Development
Services prior to the Wind Down Period.


(e)       Field
of Use.


(i)       The
Parties agree that the initial field in which the Parties shall pursue the Development of New Products is for products, technology
and applications in the field of medical procedures, processes and therapies related to the pancreas via vessels, pancreatic ducts
or percutaneous access (“Field”).


(ii)       The
Parties acknowledge and agree that Parties may desire to amend this Agreement, or enter into a separate agreement, for the development
of new products or technology to be used and Commercialized in connection with medical procedures, processes, and therapies related
to the brain (the “Brain Field”). In order to allow sufficient time for discussions between the Parties concerning
potential opportunities in the Brain Field, AMS shall not license or grant any rights to the AMS IP in the Brain Field to any third
parties until after July 15, 2017.


3.
       RESALE OF AMS SYSTEM. 


(a)       AMS
System. AMS hereby grants MRI (i) the exclusive right to Commercialize the AMS System in the Field; and (ii) subject to the
right of AMS to terminate this right at any time at its sole discretion, the non-exclusive right commencing September 1, 2017 to
Commercialize the AMS System as it exists and is configured as of July 1, 2017 in connection with medical procedures and processes
related to liver, kidney and/or muscle therapies, products, services and applications (each a “Non-Exclusive Field”).
MRI intends to exercise its rights under Section 3(a)(ii) in good faith to Commercialize the AMS System in the clinical
setting for the mutual benefit of the Parties. The Parties acknowledge that initial human treatments using the AMS System must
be conducted under an institutional review board protocol (“IRB Protocol”), and AMS agrees to participate and
be present for the initial five (5) patients treated by any MRI customer of the AMS System. To the extent that (i) any third party
seeks to obtain exclusive rights from AMS to a Non-Exclusive Field or (ii) AMS seeks to Commercialize the AMS System itself exclusively
in a Non-Exclusive Field, AMS shall provide ninety (90) days prior written notice to MRI thereof to allow MRI to conclude its Commercialization
efforts in such Non-Exclusive Field, and to the extent applicable, enter in good faith negotiations with MRI for any continued
use in such Non-Exclusive Field.


(b)       Purchase
Orders. The AMS Systems marketed, licensed, and sold by MRI pursuant to Section 3 may also be branded and sold under
the MRI trademarks; provided, that MRI shall include, and shall not remove, any AMS trademarks from the AMS System, the AMS System
packaging and/or materials. MRI shall purchase from AMS and AMS agrees to sell to MRI the AMS System in the amounts, prices, and
quantities and pursuant to terms specified in written purchase orders mutually agreed upon by the Parties (each a “Purchase
Order”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the prices offered to MRI or set forth on such Purchase Order(s) shall be comparable
to or more favorable to MRI than the prices offered by AMS to any of its other resellers or customers during the Term of this Agreement,
including any renewal hereof. If at any time during the Term of this Agreement or any renewal hereof, AMS contracts or has contracted,
with any other reseller or customer for the purchase or license of the AMS System pursuant to a grant substantially the same as
the grant in this Section 3 on a basis that provides prices to the reseller or customer for AMS more favorable than those
provided MRI hereunder, then (i)



    	 	5	 



     


    

AMS shall, within thirty (30) calendar days after the effective date of such other contract, notify
MRI in writing of such fact, explaining the more favorable basis in reasonable detail subject to any restrictions on confidentiality;
and (ii) this Agreement shall be amended to provide the more favorable prices, benefits, or terms to MRI; provided, however, that
MRI shall have the right and option at any time to decline to accept such change.


4.
       GOVERNANCE.


(a)       Joint
Steering Committee. The Parties will form a joint steering committee, which will be responsible for the oversight of the development
and implementation of the Collaboration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (“Joint Steering Committee”
or “JSC”). The Joint Steering Committee shall, among other things, (i) assist in the management of the development,
implementation, optimization and coordination of the New Products; (ii) review, and provide comment on SOWs; (iii) provide single-point
communication for seeking consensus within both Parties’ organizations regarding the development, testing and Commercialization
of the New Products and any other significant activities relating to the Collaboration and this Agreement; and (iv) address business
disputes between the Parties as provided in Section 12(r), and (v) monitor the progress of and facilitate changes to the
Collaboration as industry requirements and the Parties’ interests evolve over time. The Parties acknowledge and agree that
the Joint Steering Committee shall not have the power to amend any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement or to bind either
Party with respect to any obligations not expressly provided in this Agreement or in any SOW. This Agreement shall not be amended
expect pursuant to Section 12(f)(Amendment). The JSC shall be composed of four (4) members — two (2) AMS executives
or Personnel appointed by AMS, and two (2) MRI executives or Personnel appointed by MRI (Collectively, the “JSC Members”);
provided, however, that in the event a member appointed by a party shall not be in attendance at any meeting, the other member
appointed by that same party shall have full authority to vote for both such members. The initial JSC Members are as set forth
on Exhibit C to this Agreement. The removal of any JSC Member may be effected only by the Party entitled to appoint such
JSC Member. Any vacancy on the Joint Steering Committee may be filled only by the Party entitled to appoint such JSC Member.


(b)       Meetings.
The Joint Steering Committee shall hold meetings regularly during the performance of work or Development Services under the Development
Plan or any other SOW at times, dates, and locations to be mutually agreed upon by the JSC Members. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
during the pendency of the Development Plan, the Parties shall hold meetings no less than monthly unless otherwise mutually agreed
upon by the Parties. In addition, meetings of the Joint Steering Committee may be called by any two of the JSC members, at any
time upon written notice delivered to the other JSC members at least fourteen (14) days prior to the proposed meeting date. Joint
Steering Committee meetings may be held, and individual JSC Members may attend, in person, by audio or video teleconference or
similar communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other. Each Party shall
be responsible for all of its own expenses in participating in any Joint Steering Committee meetings.


 


5.
       INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY.


(a)       New
Products. Subject to Sections 8(b)(vi) and 8(b)(vii), MRI shall have the perpetual, worldwide, and exclusive
right within the Field to use, manufacture, Commercialize, import, export and otherwise distribute any New Products incorporating
the AMS IP or that were developed, in whole or in part, by AMS pursuant to a SOW. For the avoidance of doubt, any New Products
not incorporating the AMS IP and that were not developed, in whole or in part, by AMS, do not require any license or consent from
AMS and may be Commercialized by MRI in any field whatsoever.



    	 	6	 



     


    

(b)       AMS
IP. Subject to the terms of this Section 5 and Sections 8(b)(vi) and 8(b)(vii), AMS hereby grants to MRI
and its Affiliates(s), a fully-paid up, worldwide, sublicensable, transferable right and license to, within the Field, access,
modify, create derivative works of, enhance, improve, and otherwise use and exploit (i) the AMS IP during the Term, in connection
with the Development of New Products and other Collaboration activities under this Agreement or any SOW; and (ii) any AMS IP incorporated
into or necessary for (1) the use or Commercialization within the Field by MRI of the AMS System as permitted pursuant to this
Agreement, and/or (2) the use, manufacture, or Commercialization by MRI of any New Products within the Field. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, but subject to Section 8(b)(vi) and 8(b)(vii), the license in the AMS IP granted by AMS to MRI under this Section
5(b)(ii) shall be perpetual and survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement; provided, that in the event of any
termination other than pursuant to Section 8(b)(vi) or 8(b)(vii), MRI agrees to use the AMS IP solely as used or
incorporated in the New Products or Newly Developed IP after any such expiration or termination. MRI agrees not to use the AMS
IP to manufacture the AMS System as it exists as of August 1st, 2017 and for the purposes of exercising the rights set
forth in Section 3 it shall purchase AMS Systems from AMS; provided, however, MRI shall have the right to manufacture any
New Products.


(c)       AMS
Patents. Subject to the terms of this Section 5, with respect to any and all AMS Patents included in the AMS IP, unless
terminated earlier pursuant to Section 8(b)(vi) or 8(b)(vii), the licensed rights set forth above in Section 5(b),
solely with respect to any subject matter or claims expressly covered by the AMS Patents, shall terminate on the earlier of (i)
the expiration of the Term; or (ii) the last of any AMS Patents (or valid claims thereunder) expires or is held revoked, invalid
or unenforceable by decision of a court or other governmental agency of competent jurisdiction, unappealable or unappealed with
the time allowed for appeal having been expired (the “AMS Patent Term”).


(d)       Exclusivity.
The Parties agree that the licenses set forth above in Section 5(b) and Section 5(c) shall be exclusive to MRI as
between (i) MRI and any third party, and (ii) MRI and AMS, in the Field. For avoidance of doubt, except as necessary to perform
its activities under the Collaboration, AMS shall have no right to use, license, sell, offer for sale, Commercialize or exploit
the AMS IP within the Field or grant any third party the foregoing rights in the Field without the prior written consent of MRI.
The Parties agree that all use by MRI of the AMS IP pursuant to the licenses set forth above outside of the Field shall be non-exclusive.


(e)       Newly
Developed IP. Except to the extent expressly otherwise provided in an applicable SOW (and subject to AMS’s rights in
the AMS IP licensed to MRI hereunder), MRI shall exclusively own all right, title, and interest in and to all (i) New Products,
including all Newly Developed IP therein; and (ii) Newly Developed IP. Without limiting the foregoing, MRI shall at all times have
(i) an undivided right to possess all Newly Developed IP, including the right to offer, use, exploit or license (and sublicense)
the Newly Developed IP, without any duty or obligation to obtain AMS’s consent to any licensing, sublicensing or other exploitation
thereof; and (ii) the right (but not an obligation) to assert the intellectual property and/or proprietary rights and collect for
all past, present, and future acts of infringement that have occurred or may occur. AMS will, and hereby does irrevocably and without
further consideration, assign, transfer, and set over, and shall cause its Personnel to assign, transfer, and set over to MRI and
its permitted successors and assigns, without requirement of additional consideration, all rights, title, and interests in and
to the New Products and Newly Developed IP. At any time and from time to time after the Effective Date, without further consideration,
AMS will execute and deliver such other instruments of sale, transfer, conveyance, assignment, and delivery and confirmation and
take such action as the MRI may reasonably deem necessary or desirable, in order to more effectively carry out the purposes of
this Agreement and to transfer, convey and assign to MRI and to confirm MRI’s ownership of and title to, all New Products
and Newly Developed IP and to assist MRI in exercising all rights and enjoying all benefits with respect thereto.

(f)       Licenses
to AMS.


(i)       Subject
to the terms of this Agreement, including Section 12(h) of this Agreement, MRI grants to AMS, during the Term, a limited,
non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, non-transferable (except as set forth herein) right and license to access and use the MRI IP

to the terms of this Agreement, including Section 12(h) of this Agreement, MRI hereby grants to AMS a perpetual, worldwide,
non-exclusive, transferable, fully paid, sublicenseable right and license to access modify, create derivative works of, enhance,
improve, and otherwise use and exploit Newly Developed IP Developed, in whole or in part, by AMS; provided, however, any sublicense
granted by AMS under this Section 5(f)(ii) shall be on terms no less protective of the Newly Developed IP as those set forth herein;
and further provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, the license granted by MRI to AMS under this Section 5(f)(ii) shall not
include Newly Developed IP Developed by MRI without contribution from AMS or without the use of AMS IP. In the event MRI terminates
this Agreement due to AMS’s material breach of this Agreement, the foregoing license in this Section 5(f)(ii) shall
not terminate and shall survive the termination of this Agreement.


(iii)       Except
for the rights granted in this Section 5(f), no other right in the MRI IP or Newly Developed IP is conveyed, transferred,
assigned or licensed to AMS or any other person or entity, including by way of any implied license and MRI retains all right, title
and interest therein.


(g)       Records;
Disclosure of Newly Developed IP.


(i)       Each
Party shall maintain contemporaneous, complete, and accurate written records of the activities of its Personnel concerning Newly
Developed IP that provide proof of the conception date and reduction to practice date of any Newly Developed IP.


(ii)       Each
Party shall disclose to the other Party all Newly Developed IP that is Developed during the Term, including copies of all invention
disclosures and other similar documents created in the normal course of its business that disclose any conception or reduction
to practice of any Intellectual Property constituting Newly Developed IP. Such disclosures shall be made on at least a quarterly
basis during the Term by each Party to the JSC.


(h)       Intellectual
Property Prosecution and Enforcement.


(i)       Each
Party is responsible for all costs associated with the Intellectual Property it solely owns. With respect to Intellectual Property
solely owned by a Party, such Party shall have sole discretion to decide whether to file for protection, the countries in which
it will file for protection, the content of such filings, the conduct of the prosecution of such filings, and whether to maintain
such protection. With respect to Newly Developed IP, MRI will have the sole right and to prepare, file, prosecute and maintain
any applications or registrations for Intellectual Property associated therewith, provided, that AMS shall provide MRI with all
reasonable assistance and cooperation, including the preparation and filing of any assignments, terminal disclaimers and other
documents, required to procure, preserve and the protections for all Newly Developed IP under the U.S. Patent Act and the patent
laws of any other country or jurisdiction, 



    	 	8	 



     


    

as applicable. The Parties shall promptly notify the other in writing of any alleged
or threatened infringement of any Intellectual Property of the other Party of which they become aware; provided, that AMS acknowledges
and agrees that MRI shall have the sole right to bring any enforcement action against any third-party infringer of the New Products
and any Newly Developed IP. AMS shall cooperate, at MRI’s expense, with MRI in such enforcement action(s), including without
limitation, by executing such documents and providing such assistance as reasonably deemed necessary by MRI in connection with
any action(s) taken by MRI against such infringement.


(ii)       At
its request at reasonable times, MRI shall have the right to review any patent application, appeal, response or other correspondence
with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (or any other governmental or regulatory patent issuing authority located outside of
the United States) related to the AMS Patents within the Field and request amendments, modifications or new claims with respect
thereto as MRI reasonably deems appropriate at MRI’s sole cost and expense, subject to AMS’s agreement which shall
not be unreasonably withheld. If AMS fails to timely fulfill any prosecution or maintenance obligations with respect to the AMS
Patents within the Field, including without limitation, payment of any fees or other obligations under this Section 5(h)(ii),
MRI is hereby authorized, and granted a limited power of attorney, to fulfill such obligations on behalf of AMS at MRI’s
expense.


(iii)       With
respect to Newly Developed IP, if MRI decides not (i) to file for intellectual property protection in any country, (ii) to cease
prosecution of any application or registration, (iii) or to maintain a patent or registration, MRI shall give prompt written notice
to AMS at least 30 days prior to the expiration of any rights. In such event, AMS may, at its sole discretion and cost, elect to
file for patent protection in the respective country and/or continue to prosecute or maintain.


(i)       Trade
Secrets. Pursuant to the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, the Parties acknowledge and understand, and shall cause any Personnel
to acknowledge and understand, that:


(i)       an
individual may not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade
secret that: (a) is made (i) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or
to an attorney; and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (b) is made in a
complaint or other document that is filed under seal in a lawsuit or other proceeding.


(ii)       Further,
an individual who files a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of law may disclose the employer’s

6.
       COMPENSATIONS AND ROYALTIES. Subject to the terms and conditions of
this Agreement, in consideration of the rights and licenses granted herein, MRI shall pay to AMS the following payments, royalties,
and shares of MRI stock:


(a)       Payments.


(i)       On
the Effective Date of this Agreement, MRI shall pay to AMS $[***], and issue to AMS [***] shares of unregistered MRI common stock.


(ii)       On
August 1st, 2017, or earlier, if financially feasible in MRI’s sole discretion, MRI shall pay to AMS $[***], and
issue to AMS [***] shares of unregistered MRI common stock in consideration for the rights granted to MRI in the Field.


(iii)       For
the initial 510(k) or initial PMA submitted to the FDA for the first New Product in the Field, (the “Initial FDA Application”),
MRI shall pay to AMS $[***] and issue to AMS [***] shares of unregistered MRI common stock.


(iv)       To
the extent MRI receives 510(k) or PMA clearance from the FDA for an Initial FDA Application, MRI shall pay to AMS $[***] and issue
to AMS [***] shares of unregistered MRI common stock.


(v)       On
the one (1) year anniversary of any 510(k) or PMA clearance received from the FDA for the Initial FDA Application, MRI shall pay
to AMS $[***] and issue to AMS [***] shares of unregistered MRI common stock.


(vi)       The
number of shares of unregistered MRI common stock to be issued pursuant to this Section 6(a) shall be automatically, and
without any further act of the Parties, adjusted to give effect to any MRI stock split, business combination or other similar corporate
transaction.


(vii)       For
a period of one year from the date of issuance with respect to each grant (and only that grant) contemplated in this Section
6(a), if MRI proposes to register any shares of its common stock under the Securities Act in connection with the secondary
offering of such securities by stockholders of MRI, MRI will, at such time, promptly give AMS notice of such registration. Upon
the request of AMS given within ten (10) days after such notice is given by MRI, MR will, subject to the provisions below, cause
to be registered all of the Registrable Securities (as defined below) that AMS has requested to be included in such registration.
MRI will have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 6(a)(vii) before the
effective date of such registration, whether or not AMS has elected to include Registrable Securities in such registration. The
expenses (other than AMS selling expenses) of such withdrawn registration will be borne by MRI. If the total number of securities,
including Registrable Securities, requested by AMS to be included in such offering exceeds the number of securities to be sold
that the underwriters in their reasonable discretion determine is compatible with the success of the offering, then MRI will be
required to include in the offering only that number of such securities, including Registrable Securities, which the underwriters
and MRI in their sole discretion determine will not jeopardize the success of the offering. For purposes of this Agreement, “Registrable
Securities” means the shares of unregistered MRI common stock issued to AMS within the past twelve months.

(viii)       Upon
the occurrence of any Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and
after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of Section 6(a) of this Agreement referring to the “MRI”
and the obligations to issues shares of MRI common stock shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right
and power of MRI and shall assume all of the obligations of MRI under this Agreement with the same effect as if such Successor
Entity had been named as MRI herein. Upon consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall deliver to AMS
confirmation at any time after the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, in lieu of the shares of MRI common stock issuable
under this Agreement prior to such Fundamental Transaction, the same amount and kind of securities, cash or property as AMS would
have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction had the shares been issued prior to such Fundamental
Transaction, as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. For purposes hereof, (i) “Fundamental Transaction”
means that (A) MRI shall, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions, (1) consolidate or merge with or into (whether
or not MRI is the surviving corporation) another person (but excluding a migratory merger effected solely for the purpose of changing
the jurisdiction of incorporation of MRI), or (2) sell, assign, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all
of the properties or assets of MRI to another person, or (3) allow another person to make a purchase, tender or exchange offer
that is accepted by the holders of more than the 50% of the outstanding shares of MRI common stock (not including any shares of
MRI common stock held by the person or persons making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the persons making or party
to, such purchase, tender or exchange offer), or (4) consummate a stock purchase agreement or other business combination (including,
without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with another person whereby such other
person acquires more than 50% of the outstanding shares of MRI common stock (not including any shares of MRI common stock held
by the other person or other persons making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other Persons making or party to,
such stock purchase agreement or other business combination), or (5) reorganize, recapitalize or reclassify its common stock, or
(B) any “person” or “group” (as these terms are used for purposes of Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange
Act) is or shall become the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly,
of 50% of the aggregate ordinary voting power represented by issued and outstanding MRI common stock, and (ii) “Successor
Entity” means the person formed by, resulting from or surviving any Fundamental Transaction or the person with which such
Fundamental Transaction shall have been entered into.


(b)       Development
Plan Fees. The Parties agree to work in good faith to develop a budget for the Development Plan. MRI shall use reasonable efforts
to provide commercially reasonable prior notice to AMS of the scope of the Development Services requested by MRI and the fees payable
for such Development Services so that AMS shall have sufficient time to staff and allocate resources to the Development Services
requested by MRI. In consideration of the performance by AMS under the Development Plan, MRI agrees to pay AMS the fees agreed
to by Parties in the Development Plan; provided, that such fees shall be no less than: (i) an initial payment of $[***] on the
date the Development Services commence under the Development Plan; (ii) an additional $[***], thirty (30) days thereafter; and
(iii) three (3) additional payments of $[***], each thirty (30) days thereafter (for a total of 5 months of payments by MRI to
AMS in the amounts set forth in this Section 6(b)).

(c)       Royalties.


(i)       In
consideration of the rights granted under this Agreement with respect to the AMS IP, beginning on August 1, 2018, MRI shall pay
to AMS a royalty equal to [***] Percent ([***]%) of Net Sales of New Products incorporating AMS IP in the Field (collectively,
the “Royalty”).


(ii)       In
addition, MRI agrees that for each twelve (12) month period following August 1, 2018, the minimum royalty paid by MRI during such
twelve (12) month period shall be either 1) $[***] if MRI is not Commercializing New Products incorporating AMS IP in the Field;
or 2) equal to or greater than $[***] if MRI is Commercializing New Products incorporating AMS IP in the Field.


(iii)       For
the avoidance of doubt, the Parties agree that MRI may sell products as kits containing other products, components, and technology
that do not contain or incorporate the New Products, and that the Royalty set forth in this Section 6(c) shall be calculated
based only on the portion of the revenues received for the New Products incorporating AMS IP.


7.
       Confidentiality. Each Recipient shall: (i) maintain Discloser’s
Confidential Information in confidence during the Term and for a period of five (5) years thereafter, provided that any Confidential
Information that comprises a trade secret shall be maintained in confidence in perpetuity until such trade secret ceases to constitute
a trade secret within the meaning of any Applicable Law related to such trade secret, so long the reason such trade secret no longer
so constitutes is not due the breach of confidentiality by Recipient or its Personnel (or any person or entity to which such Party
may have provided access to such trade secret), or due to any violation of law (e.g. hacking of computer systems); (ii) limit dissemination
to those of its Personnel who reasonably require use or access to such Confidential Information in order to perform under this
Agreement; (iii) not disclose such Confidential Information to any other person or entity (other than Affiliates); and (iv) use
such Confidential Information only to the extent necessary to perform this Agreement. The Joint Steering Committee may establish
additional procedures and requirements with respect to the treatment of Confidential Information, including the establishment of
different clearance levels for Personnel having access to Confidential Information, classification and marking of Confidential
Information based on level of sensitivity (e.g. Confidential, Highly Confidential, etc.), and the storage and transfer of Confidential
Information by and between the Parties and their Personnel. If Recipient is compelled to disclose any Confidential Information
of Discloser by order of a court of competent jurisdiction, any such disclosure will not be a breach of this Agreement; provided,
that Recipient first gives Discloser prompt written notice of such required disclosure in order to permit Discloser to seek all
applicable governmental or judicial protection available. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, each Party shall also
have the right to share copies of this Agreement (as it may be redacted to protect any commercially sensitive information) as part
of any due diligence data room established by such Party.


8.
       TERM AND TERMINATION.


(a)       Term.

cure of the breach.


(ii)       This
Agreement may be terminated upon written notice immediately by either Party upon the filing or institution of bankruptcy, reorganization,
liquidation, or receivership proceedings, or upon an assignment of a substantial portion of the assets for the benefit of creditors
by the other Party; provided, that in the case of any involuntary bankruptcy proceedings, such right to terminate shall only become
effective if the Party consents to the involuntary bankruptcy or such proceeding is not dismissed within ninety (90) days after
the filing thereof.


(iii)       MRI
may terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to AMS in the event of the resignation or termination of
Key Personnel.


(iv)       MRI
may terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to AMS in the event AMS or any Key Personnel commits any

of any other event which has a material negative or detrimental impact on the commercial or business reputation of AMS.


(v)       Without
limiting the foregoing, MRI may terminate this Agreement without cause and without penalty by providing thirty (30) days’
prior written notice to AMS if MRI reasonably determines that (i) no New Products are likely to be Developed or offered for sale,
or (ii) market conditions are not favorable to the launch and sales of New Products.


(vi)       To
the extent a 510(k) or PMA is not submitted to the FDA for a New Product in the Field by [***], AMS shall have the right to terminate
this Agreement by providing thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to MRI, in which event, and notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement to the contrary, all of MRI’s rights and licenses under this Agreement will terminate as of the
effective date of such termination.


(vii)       In
the event that MRI fails to pay any fees or other amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement, any SOW entered pursuant to this
Agreement or the Development Plan, other than amounts that are disputed in good faith and in accordance with the provisions of
Section 12(r), within fifteen (15) days after the date specified, and if no date is specified then within fifteen (15) days
of MRI’s receipt of an invoice from AMS for such payment, and MRI does not make such overdue payment within thirty (30) days
after AMS provides written notice to MRI of the amount overdue, AMS shall have the right to terminate this Agreement, in which
event, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, all of MRI’s rights and licenses under
this Agreement will terminate as of the effective date of such termination. For the avoidance of doubt, AMS shall have the right
to proceed under this Section 8(b)(vii) if any disputed amount that is addressed pursuant to Section 12(r) is not
resolved within the thirty (30) day period referenced therein.

or destroy all Confidential Information (except to the extent incorporated into or comprising any Newly Developed IP) of the other
Party then in its possession, and each Party shall certify in writing that all such Confidential Information has been returned
or destroyed. To the extent that any such Confidential Information cannot be returned or destroyed using commercially reasonable
efforts, or if any such Confidential Information is required to be retained following the expiration or termination of this Agreement
(such as pursuant to any “litigation hold” letter), any such Confidential Information shall maintained in confidence
in accordance with Section 7 until it has ceased to constitute Confidential Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing or
anything contained herein, neither Party shall be required to destroy or alter any computer or network archival and backup tapes,
or archival and backup files (collectively, “Archives”), provided that such Archives shall be kept confidential
in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason, including any
termination for breach by the other Party, but subject to Sections 8(b)(vi) and 8(b)(vii), all provisions of this

Without limiting the foregoing, the following Sections of this Agreement shall survive and remain binding on the Parties following

10.       INDEMNIFICATION.


(a)       Indemnification
by MRI. MRI agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless AMS, its Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, Personnel,
and agents (collectively, the “AMS Indemnitees”) from and against any and all third-party claims, suits, actions,
demands, damages, and liabilities, including reasonable legal costs and fees to which any AMS Indemnitee may become subject to
as a result of any claim, demand, action, or other proceeding by any third party (each, a “Claim”) to the extent
such Claim arises out of: (i) any allegation that the MRI IP infringes, misappropriates, or otherwise violates the Intellectual
Property, proprietary, or other rights of any third party; or (ii) MRI’s gross negligence, fraud, or willful misconduct,
or violation of applicable law.


(b)       Indemnification
by AMS. AMS agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless MRI, its Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, Personnel,
and agents (collectively, the “MRI Indemnitees”) from and against any and all third-party claims, suits, actions,
demands, damages, and liabilities, including reasonable legal costs and fees to which any MRI Indemnitee may become subject to
as a result of any Claim to the extent such Claim arises out of: (i) any allegation that the AMS IP infringes, misappropriates,
or otherwise violates the Intellectual Property, proprietary, or other rights of any third party; or (ii) AMS’s gross negligence,
fraud, or willful misconduct, or violation of applicable law.


(c)       Indemnification
Process. The Party seeking indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) shall provide prompt written notice
of any Claim to the indemnifying Party (the “Indemnifying Party”); provided, however, that failure to give prompt
notice shall not affect the Indemnifying Party’s obligations under this Section 10 unless and to the extent that the
failure materially prejudices the defense of the matter. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in all
reasonable respects, and at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, in connection with the investigation and defense of any such
Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall have sole control of the defense of any action on any such Claim and all negotiations for its
settlement or compromise; provided, that the Indemnified Party, at its sole cost and expense, shall have the right to engage its
own legal counsel, and if such settlement or compromise would (i) impose any costs, obligations, or limitations on the Indemnified
Party, or (ii) admit fault by the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall not settle or compromise the Claim without
the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent.


11.       LIMITATION
OF LIABILITY. Except to the extent arising out of (i) a Party’s indemnification obligations under Section 10,
(ii) a Party’s breach of its confidentiality obligations under Section 7, or (iii) its gross negligence, fraud, or
willful misconduct, neither Party nor its Affiliates will be liable under any contract, negligence, strict liability, product liability
or other legal or equitable theory for any indirect, incidental, consequential, multiple, special or punitive damages or loss of
profits or revenues, whether arising out of breach of contract, tort (including negligence) or otherwise (including the entry into,
performance, or breach of this Agreement), regardless of whether such loss or damage was foreseeable or the Party against whom
such liability is claimed has been advised of the possibility of such loss or damage, and notwithstanding the failure of any agreed
or other remedy of its essential purpose.


12.       MISCELLANEOUS
PROVISIONS.


(a)       Assignment.
Neither Party may assign or otherwise transfer this Agreement, directly or indirectly, including by operation of law, or otherwise,
or any of its rights or obligations, without the prior written consent of the other Party; provided, that MRI may assign or transfer
this Agreement (i) to an Affiliate, or (ii) pursuant to a change of control, by operation of law, or in connection with the sale
of all or substantially all of its business or assets, however structured. Any assignment or transfer in violation of this Agreement
will be null and void.



    	 	16	 



     


    

(b)       Entire
Agreement. This Agreement and any exhibits, SOWs, or Change Orders hereto constitute the entire agreement between the Parties
with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all prior discussions, understandings, negotiations, representations,
or commitments, whether written or oral.


(c)       Governing
Law; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. This Agreement is governed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving
effect to any choice of law rules that may direct the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY
AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY FOR ANY COURT PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS
AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY FOR WHICH A PARTY MAY BRING SUCH A COURT PROCEEDING.


(d)       Equitable
Relief. In any claim for equitable relief, each Party acknowledges that a breach by the other Party of this Agreement, including
Section 5 or 7, may cause the non-breaching party irreparable harm, for which an award of damages would not be adequate
compensation and, in the event of such a breach or threatened breach, the non-breaching Party shall be entitled to seek equitable
relief, including in the form of a restraining order, orders for preliminary or permanent injunction, specific performance, and
any other relief that may be available from any court, and the Parties hereby waive any requirement for the showing of actual monetary
damages in connection with such relief. These remedies shall not be deemed to be exclusive but shall be in addition to all other
remedies available under this Agreement at law or in equity, subject to any express exclusions or limitations in this Agreement
to the contrary.


(e)       Waiver;
Discharge. The failure of any Party to enforce at any time any of the provisions of this Agreement shall not, absent an express
written waiver signed by the authorized representative of the Party making such waiver specifying the provision being waived, be
construed to be a waiver of any such provision, nor in any way to affect the validity of this Agreement or any part thereof or
the right of the Party thereafter to enforce each and every such provision. No waiver of any breach of this Agreement shall be
held to be a waiver of any other or subsequent breach.


(f)       Amendment.
This Agreement, and any SOW, may not be amended, by course of conduct or otherwise, except pursuant to a written amendment that
expressly refers to this Agreement and this Section 12(f) and signed by the authorized representatives of each of the Parties.


(g)       No
Recruitment. During the Term and for one (1) year after the termination of this Agreement, each Party agrees not to recruit
any employees of the other Party who are directly involved in the Collaboration. This Section 12(g) does not preclude the
recruitment of employees through general advertisements nor the recruiting efforts conducted by persons not covered by this Section
12(g) and are not acting at the direction of persons so involved, and either Party may discuss employment with, and hire, persons
who respond or who initiate contact on their own. This Section 12(g) also does not prohibit a Party from hiring a terminated
employee of the other Party. For purposes of this paragraph, an announcement that a Party makes on its own site, LinkedIn (or comparable
online network), or a job posting or career website (including, without limitation, Craigslist, Monster.com, HotJobs, etc.) will
not constitute a recruitment unless it is directed specifically at employees of the other Party.


(h)       Non-Competition.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, during the Term, AMS will not, directly or indirectly, itself
or through an Affiliate, (i) sell, license, sublicense or offer its AMS System or products incorporating AMS IP to any third party
in the Field, (ii) enter into any arrangement to develop, deliver, provide or Commercialize products or services that compete with
MRI Products within the Field or New Products within the Field to any third party; or (iii)
