	***	Confidential treatment requested 








	 	(iii)	any sales, excise, use or ad valorem taxes and any direct governmental charges included in such invoice as a separately stated charge, as adjusted for rebates, charge backs and
refunds. 

  

	 	(d)	The parties agree and acknowledge that with respect to those certain customers set forth on Exhibit D attached hereto, only the amounts received from those customers in excess of
the amounts set forth on Exhibit D shall be included in Revenue for the purposes of this Agreement. 

  

	 	(e)	All commission payments shall be made on a calendar quarter basis within thirty (30) days after the end of each quarter for which commissions are due. Each commission payment shall
be accompanied by a written report setting forth the calculation of Revenue and the calculation of commission due. Such reports shall include at least the total amount invoiced for the Creation Services, the amount of the allowable deductions and
the amount of the total commissions due. If no commission payments are due for a particular quarter, the report shall be delivered as required above and shall state that no commissions are due. 

  

	 	(f)	All commissions shall be payable in full in United States Dollars, regardless of the countries in which sales are made. For the purpose of computing Revenue for which a currency

quarter. 

  

	 	(g)	Any payment due and payable by Xenogen and XenogenBio to Charles River under this Agreement not made on the date such payment is due and payable, including without limitation any
installment of the Annual Fee, shall bear interest as of the date such payment was due and shall continue to accrue interest until such payment is made at a rate equal to the lesser of one and one-half percent (1.5%) interest per month or the
maximum rate permitted by applicable law. 

  

	5.	 Record Retention; Audits. XenogenBio shall keep for three (3) years from the date of each commission payment complete and accurate records of sales by
XenogenBio of the Creation Services in sufficient detail to allow the accruing commissions hereunder to be determined accurately. Charles River shall have the right for a period of three (3) years after receiving any report or statement with respect
to commissions due and payable to appoint an independent certified public accountant, at Charles’s expense, to inspect the relevant records of Xenogen to verify such report or statement. XenogenBio shall make its records available for
inspection by such independent certified public accountant during regular business hours at such place or places where such records are customarily kept, upon reasonable notice from Charles River, solely to verify the accuracy of the reports and
payments. Such inspection right shall not be exercised more than once in any calendar year. Charles River agrees to hold in strict confidence all information concerning commission payments and reports, and all information learned in the course of
any audit or inspection, except to the extent necessary for Charles River to reveal such information in order to enforce its rights under this Agreement or if disclosure is required by law, regulation or judicial order. The results of each
inspection, if any, shall be binding on both Parties. The cost of the inspection shall be borne by Charles River, provided however that if the inspection reveals that the records were not kept as required hereunder, or that an underpayment of ten

percent (10%) or more has occurred in any quarterly period, XenogenBio shall pay the cost of the inspection, together with the underpayment and interest
calculated as set forth above.

	 	(ii)	is acquired by receiving party from a third party and such third party did not obtain such information directly or indirectly from the disclosing party under obligation not to

provided, however, that Charles River may disclose the existence of the Agreement for the purposes of marketing and selling the Creation Services and any party may make such a disclosure to the extent required by law, including the rules of a stock
exchange on which it is listed. Such disclosure shall be on reasonable notice to the other parties and after taking all reasonable steps to maintain confidentiality.***

(the “Xenogen Rights”) for the term of this Agreement solely for the purposes of marketing and selling the Creation Services as described in the Marketing Plan. Xenogen reserves all rights not expressly granted herein. Charles River
acknowledges that it has no interest in the Xenogen Rights other than the licenses granted under this Agreement, and that Xenogen will remain the sole and exclusive owner of all right, title and interest in the Xenogen Rights. Charles River agrees
that Charles River’s use of the Xenogen Rights and any good will in such trademarks, service marks, tradenames and copyrights resulting from Charles River’s use will inure solely to the benefit of Xenogen and will not create any right,
title or interest for Charles River in the Xenogen Rights. Charles River shall not contest, oppose or challenge Xenogen’s ownership of the Xenogen Rights. Charles River agrees that it will do nothing to impair Xenogen’s ownership or rights
in the Xenogen Rights. Charles River shall not, during the term of this Agreement or thereafter, register, use, or attempt to obtain any right in and to any Xenogen Right (other than those rights granted herein) or in and to any name, logo or
trademark confusingly similar thereto or any derivative work of a Xenogen Right. Charles River agrees that at no time during or after the term of this Agreement to challenge or assist others to challenge the Xenogen Rights or the registration
thereof or attempt to register any trademarks, marks or trade names confusingly similar to such Xenogen Rights or that are derivative works of a Xenogen Right. Charles River shall not use any Xenogen Right or other proprietary mark of Xenogen or
Xenogen’s suppliers or licensors in a manner that has not been approved by Xenogen, and shall only use such Xenogen Rights in conformity with the style and usage developed by Xenogen.
