Under the terms of the Agreement, VNUS has granted to VSI a non-exclusive and non-sublicensable license to the applicable patents for use in endovenous laser therapy and VSI has agreed to pay VNUS a royalty on all of its Vari-Lase® products shipped within the U.S. Within three business days after execution of the Agreement, VSI is obligated to pay VNUS an aggregate amount of $3.1 million to cover royalties under the Agreement on Vari-Lase products shipped within the U.S. from the launch of the product in 2003 through the end of the first quarter of 2008. Commencing with the second quarter of 2008, VSI will make quarterly royalty payments under the Agreement on on-going U.S. shipments of Vari-Lase products through the remaining life of the applicable patents. VNUS and VSI have also agreed under the Agreement to dismiss all of the pending litigation between the parties.
