Intellectual Property in the Territory.  Subject to the terms
and conditions in this Agreement, Remedent hereby grants to Den-Mat a sole and
exclusive (even as to Remedent) transferable and sublicensable right and license
to use within the Territory the Intellectual Property owned or used by Remedent
that is related to the Products as it exists on the Amendment No. 2 Effective
Date.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) Remedent retains the right
to use and license to any Person performing contract manufacturing for Remedent
(concurrently with Den-Mat’s right to use) such Intellectual Property solely in
connection with the manufacture of the Products and for internal product
development related to the Products, (b) this grant shall not include any rights
to the name or trademark ‘Remedent’, or ‘GlamSmile’ and (c) Den-Mat and Remedent
agree that Den-Mat’s right and license to use the Intellectual Property within
the Territory to the B2C Market shall be non-exclusive.  For purposes
of clarity, Den-Mat shall not use the name or trademark ‘GlamSmile’ without the
prior written consent of Remedent and, other than in the B2C Market (subject to
the terms of this Agreement), Remedent shall not use the name or trademark
‘GlamSmile’ in the Territory without the prior written consent of
Den-Mat.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement,
neither Remedent nor any B2C Market Licensee nor any Affiliate, permitted
successor or assignee of any of the foregoing, shall, directly or indirectly,
make any reference or comparison in its marketing materials or in any
advertising or sales efforts to any Den-Mat product or trademark including, but
not limited to, LumiSmile, Lumineers, Luminate, or Lumitray, without the prior
written consent of Den-Mat.  Likewise, neither Den-Mat nor any
Affiliate, permitted successor or assignee of any of the foregoing shall,
directly or indirectly, make any reference or comparison in its marketing
materials, or in any advertising or sales efforts to any Remedent product or
trademark, including, but not limited to, Remedent or GlamSmile, without the
prior written consent of Remdent, provided, however, that nothing contained
herein shall be interpreted to preclude or prohibit Den-Mat from indicating in
its marketing materials, packaging or otherwise that the Products are based upon
or incorporate Remedent’s Intellectual Property, including without limitation
the GlamSmile Technology.

Fee.  In consideration of the services already provided by
Remedent to Den-Mat, which included, without limitation, support and development
of the Tray Technology and advice regarding and improvements to the Intellectual
Property licensed to Den-Mat pursuant to this Agreement, and other legal and
valuable consideration, during the term of this Agreement, Den-Mat shall pay to
Remedent a consulting fee (the “Consulting Fee”)
equal to two percent (2%) of the aggregate Net Revenue received by Den-Mat from
the sale of Unit/Teeth and any Tray that may be associated with the sale of
Unit/Teeth, whether or not such sales utilized the Intellectual Property
licensed under this Agreement.  For purposes of this Section 6.3, a sale
shall be deemed to have been made by Den-Mat at the time the related revenue is
recognized by Den-Mat for its internal accounting purposes (in accordance with
GAAP), and “Net Revenue” shall mean the amount charged per Unit/Tooth and its
associated Tray, if any, as it is invoiced to the end customer from Den-Mat's
perspective (e.g., the
dentist, group practice corporation, distributor), net of any returns,
discounts, special pricing, rebates or additional reasonable price
deductions.  Within sixty (60) days after the end of each calendar
quarter, Den-Mat shall deliver to Remedent a certified statement from an officer
of Den-Mat setting forth (a) the total amount of Den-Mat sales of Unit/Teeth and
any associated Trays during such quarter, and (b) a calculation of the
Consulting Fee payable to Remedent under this Section
6.3.  Concurrently with delivering such statement, Den-Mat
shall pay to Remedent the amount of the Consulting Fee set forth on such
statement.  An advance of $25,000.00 against the Consulting Fees shall
be paid to Remedent upon execution of this Amendment, which amount shall be
promptly refunded to Den-Mat if this Amendment does not become binding on or
before the end of the Option Period (as defined below).”

7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 7.5 and 7.6 are hereby deleted in their
entirety.  Den-Mat shall order and purchase from Remedent such
quantities of the Products as it may desire, subject to acceptance of such
orders by Remedent, at such price and upon such terms and conditions as the
Parties may mutually agree.  Except as the Parties may hereafter
mutually agree, Den-Mat shall have no obligation to purchase from Remedent, and
Remedent shall have no obligation to sell to Den-Mat, any Products.

Consulting Fees payable by Den-Mat to Remedent with respect to the twelve (12)
month period immediately preceding the Change of Control and (b) the EBITDA
Multiple for which Den-Mat is sold.  In the event that the Change of

concurrently with payment of the Exit Fee.”
