made, sell, distribute, or use any proprietary materials or methods or other intellectual property right of MProbes, whether or not protected by patent, trademark or copyright, unless agreed in
writing beforehand between the parties. 


        3.5   If,
during the term of this Agreement, Immunicon desires to grant rights to MProbes with respect to new Licensed MP Products to be marketed and sold by MProbes within
the scope of the Licensed Use as herein defined, the parties shall consider a separate written definitive agreement, or an appropriate amendment to this Agreement, as determined by MProbes and
Immunicon through good faith negotiations. 




        4.    MARKETING OF LICENSED MP PRODUCTS.    



        4.1   MProbes
shall in good faith make reasonable commercial efforts and make reasonable expenditures to diligently market and promote sales of Licensed MP Products for the
Licensed Use in the Territory. MProbes' good faith efforts and expenditures will be at least comparable to MProbes' efforts and expenditures for other MProbes' products. 



        4.2   MProbes
shall provide Immunicon with information about any proposed Licensed MP Products to be marketed and promoted for sale by MProbes as a catalog item, at least
sixty (60) days prior to the first commercialization of such proposed Licensed MP Products. 


        4.3   MProbes
shall cause to have placed on all Licensed MP Products or IC Hardware produced, marketed or sold hereunder, or on the accompanying product literature, a suitable
and clearly legible legend that clearly restricts such Licensed MP Products and IC Hardware to the Licensed Use, such legend to be in content and language(s) appropriate to the particular country or
countries where such Licensed MP Products and IC Hardware are produced, marketed and/or sold and in conformance with all applicable governmental regulatory requirements. Such legend should include, by
way of example but not limitation, the phrase "This product is licensed solely for use in life science applications that are not clinical diagnostic or therapeutic applications" or substantially
equivalent language, indicating appropriate restrictions on use of Licensed MP Products and IC Hardware in accordance with the rights granted MProbes hereunder, and in accordance with US Food and Drug
Administration labeling requirements for products that are not approved for use in diagnostic applications. 


        4.4   MProbes
shall provide a copy of the initial versions of labels and product literature for Licensed MP Products and IC Hardware to Immunicon for review and approval as to
compliance with the requirements of paragraphs 4.3 and 6.2, at least ten (10) days prior to distribution, sale or release of the associated Licensed MP Product or IC Hardware to the market. 


        4.5   MProbes
hereby recognizes and acknowledges that because of the legal and regulatory requirements concerning certain uses of Magnetic Separation Materials, IC Technology
and Licensed MP Products, there exists the legitimate interest of Immunicon in assuring that the foregoing are not used in inappropriate and impermissible ways. Accordingly, in addition to the
marketing requirements of paragraph 4.3 above, MProbes shall use reasonable commercial efforts to monitor its customers and end users of Licensed MP Products sold hereunder to assure 



5





 




compliance
with the Licensed Use hereunder, and shall promptly inform Immunicon in writing of any use by any such customer or end user of which it becomes aware which is not in accordance with the
Licensed Use. 


        4.6   MProbes
shall maintain a bibliography of scientific research publications relating to technical advances in and useful modifications of Licensed MP Products and Licensed
Uses thereof that shall come to its knowledge. Immunicon shall from time to time furnish MProbes with IC Technology as and to the extent Immunicon reasonably determines is necessary to assist MProbes
in such efforts. Management reviews shall be held quarterly, or at intervals mutually agreed between the parties, to review goals, status of marketing and sales activities with respect to Licensed MP

        5.    PURCHASE OF MAGNETIC SEPARATION MATERIALS AND IC HARDWARE.    



        5.1   During
the term of the Agreement, and subject to all the terms and conditions hereof, Immunicon shall sell Magnetic Separation Materials to MProbes for use and/or
incorporation in Licensed MP Products in the Territory in such quantities as Immunicon is capable of supplying and MProbes may require, expressly subject to the pricing provisions of Article 7
hereof, and MProbes shall purchase such Magnetic Separation Materials exclusively from Immunicon. While this Agreement is in effect and except as provided in Article 11. MProbes shall not,
without Immunicon's prior written consent, sell any other magnetic particle separation product or substance substantially capable of being used, or incorporated into Licensed MP Products, in a similar
manner to Magnetic Separation Materials. For the purposes of this paragraph 5.1, in a "similar manner" means use or incorporation into a product for which Magnetic Separation Materials are
technically and commercially suitable, but does not cover use or incorporation into a product for which Magnetic Separation Materials are not technically or commercially suitable, and for which
MProbes may therefore sell any other magnetic particle separation product or substance without the prior written consent of Immunicon. 


        5.2   The
Magnetic Separation Materials and IC Hardware to be supplied and sold by Immunicon and purchased by MProbes hereunder shall conform to the specifications for same as
set forth in Appendix A, which may be amended from time to time by the parties in writing. 


        5.3   Upon
receipt by Immunicon of a purchase order or equivalent document for Magnetic Separation Materials or IC Hardware from MProbes, Immunicon shall use reasonable
commercial efforts to meet the schedule for delivery requested by MProbes in such document. For each item listed in Appendix A, there is established a commercially reasonable and economical
delivery schedule, and Immunicon shall have no obligation to manufacture or supply Magnetic Separation Materials or IC Hardware to MProbes in advance of such delivery schedule. Immunicon shall notify
MProbes just prior to the shipment of an order. 


        5.4   Except
as otherwise mutually agreed, Immunicon shall ship Magnetic Separation Materials and IC Hardware to MProbes FCA common carrier (INCOTERMS 2000) from the facility
in which such items are manufactured or obtained by Immunicon, and title to and risk of loss of such items shall pass to MProbes upon their delivery to a common carrier. 




        6    MAINTENANCE OF QUALITY/TRADEMARKS.    



        6.1    Quality Standards.    Immunicon shall be responsible for maintaining commercially acceptable quality control
standards in all manufacturing relating to the Magnetic Separation Materials and IC Hardware that it supplies to MProbes hereunder. 


        6.2    Use of IC Trademarks.    The IC Trademarks shall be solely owned by Immunicon. MProbes agrees to use the IC
Trademarks solely in connection with the Licensed MP Products as indicated in Appendix A and in accordance with trademark standards set by Immunicon, and to 



6





 




avoid
taking any action that would in any manner impair or detract from the value of the IC Trademarks or the goodwill and reputation of Immunicon. MProbes hereby acknowledges Immunicon's sole
ownership of the IC Trademarks and related goodwill. MProbes agrees to provide a copy of the use of such IC Trademarks to Immunicon for review, pursuant to paragraph 4.4 above. 




        7.    CONSIDERATION/PRICING.    



        7.1   MProbes
shall compensate Immunicon for the supply of Magnetic Separation Materials and IC Hardware according to the pricing schedule in Appendix B. 


        7.2   In
additional consideration of the rights granted to MProbes hereunder, MProbes shall pay to Immunicon certain percentages of the Net Sales received by MProbes from
sales of Licensed MP Products, on a product-by-product basis while this Agreement is in effect, and other applicable fees, according to the schedule set forth in
Appendix C attached hereto. 


        7.3   Such
payments of percentages of Net Sales due Immunicon hereunder shall be accounted for and paid to Immunicon within thirty (30) days following the close of the
accounting period for each quarter during the term of this Agreement. 




        8.    FORECASTS: ORDERS AND DELIVERIES.    



        8.1   MProbes
shall deliver to Immunicon, within one year after the Effective Date, MProbes' forecast for its requirements of Magnetic Separation Materials for Licensed MP
Products for the remainder of 2001. Thereafter, at least sixty (60) days prior to the start of the next and each succeeding calendar
quarter during the term of the Agreement, MProbes shall provide Immunicon with its non-binding best estimate of its requirements for Magnetic Separation Materials and IC Hardware for the
next succeeding three (3) calendar quarters. Immunicon shall not ship the forecasted items to MProbes, however, until MProbes places an order. 


        8.2   It
is the intent of the parties that MProbes and Immunicon shall cooperate with each other with respect to changes in their requirements and capacity so that each party
may use reasonable commercial efforts to efficiently accommodate the needs of the other. Accordingly, in addition to the forecasts of quarterly requirements required by Section 8.1, MProbes
shall discuss with Immunicon any dramatic changes in its requirements, and Immunicon shall use reasonable commercial efforts, consistent with its then current capacity, to accommodate such dramatic
changes within the next two (2) calendar quarters. In no event shall this Agreement be deemed to be breached or subject to termination if MProbes' requirements hereunder should be reduced to
zero from time to time, or if Immunicon shall fail to supply all of MProbes' requirements of Magnetic Separation Materials from time to time. 




        9.    ACCESS TO BOOKS AND RECORDS.    



        9.1   From
time to time during the term of this Agreement, but not more frequently than two (2) times per year, MProbes shall upon reasonable notice from Immunicon
afford reasonable access to its offices to independent public accountants of Immunicon or other appropriate agents of Immunicon and permit such accountants or agents to inspect MProbes' information,
books and records, subject to appropriate assurances of confidentiality, to verify manufacturing and sales of Licensed MP Products, Net Sales, and the accuracy and completeness of the financial and
other information related to the fulfillment by MProbes of its obligations hereunder.

compliance with governmental laws, or rules and regulations or any other cause which is beyond the control of such party; provided, however, that the party whose performance is prevented from due
performance hereunder by the force majeure shall use its reasonable efforts to remove the disability and recommence due performance hereunder at the earliest reasonable time.

        11.2   On
the happening of an event of force majeure, the party forced by the event of force majeure to suspend performance (the "Suspending Party") shall
promptly advise the other party (the "Recipient Party") of the event of force majeure, the cause thereof and, to the extent reasonably possible its best estimate of the duration of the suspension (the
"Failure Period"). The notice described in this paragraph shall hereinafter be referred to as the "Suspension Notice." 


        11.3   If
a failure of performance due to a force majeure occurs and continues for a period in excess of fourteen (14) days, or if a Suspension Notice
advises the Recipient Party that a failure of performance will continue for a period in excess of fourteen (14) days, then the Recipient Party may, at its option, contract with any person for
an alternate supply of any item or service to which the failure of performance applies. Any such contract shall be referred to hereafter as an "Alternate Source Contract." 



        11.4   The
Recipient Party shall use all good faith, consistent with sound business practice, to obtain an Alternate Source Contract which will not extend for a
period longer than the length of any stated Failure Period; provided, however, no Alternate Source Contract shall extend for a period longer than six (6) months unless consented to in writing
by the Suspending Party, or unless the Failure Period described in any Suspension Notice is greater than six (6) months (in which case an Alternate Source Contract may extend for the length of
the Failure Period described in the Suspension Notice). 


        11.5   If
any Failure Period continues for a period in excess of twelve (12) months, or if the Suspension Notice states that the Failure Period will
continue for greater than twelve (12) months, the Recipient Party may at its option terminate this Agreement, only with respect to the Licensed MP Products or services subject to such force
majeure, by thirty (30) days written notice. If not terminated, however, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until this Agreement is terminated by its terms. 




        12.    ASSIGNMENT.    



        12.1   Except
as otherwise expressly provided herein, this Agreement may not be assigned by either party hereto, whether by operation of law or otherwise,
without the prior written consent of the other party hereto, and any such attempted assignment shall be void and unenforceable; provided, however, that either party may assign its rights and
obligations hereunder without the consent of the other party to an Affiliate of such party, or to a successor in interest to substantially all of the stock, equity or assets of such party to which
this Agreement relates. 




        13.    NOTICES.

        14.    CONFIDENTIALITY OF INFORMATION.    



        14.1   The
parties may wish, from time to time, in connection with this Agreement, to disclose certain of their confidential information to each other. While
this Agreement is in effect and for five (5) years thereafter, a party receiving any such confidential information (the "Receiving Party") shall not itself use for any purpose other than for
which it was disclosed, and shall prevent the disclosure to third parties of, any and all of such confidential information, provided that the Receiving Party's obligation hereunder shall not apply to
information that: 



        a)    is
already in the Receiving Party's possession at the time of disclosure thereof, as evidenced by its written records; 


        b)    is
or subsequently becomes part of the public domain through no fault or action of the Receiving Party; 


        c)     is
subsequently received by the Receiving Party from a third party having no obligation of confidentiality to the party disclosing the confidential information; or 


        d)    is
disclosed to third parties as required by law or governmental regulation. 




        14.2   Paragraph 14.1
notwithstanding, information disclosed by one party to another shall still be deemed confidential information of the party
disclosing such information subject to the protection of this Article 14 if such disclosed information is: 



        a)    a
specific embodiment that is only generally described by information in the public domain or the Receiving Party's possession; or 



        b)    a
combination that can be pieced together and reconstructed from multiple sources, none of which shows the whole combination of materials, its principle of operation, and
method of use. 





        15.    CONTRACT INTERPRETATION.    



        15.2    Governing Law.    This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without giving regard to its choice of law or conflict of laws provisions. 



        15.3    Publicity.    Neither party shall issue any press release or other publicity materials, or make any
presentation with respect to the existence of this Agreement or the terms and conditions hereof without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
This restriction shall not apply to disclosures required by law or regulation, including as may be required in connection with any filings made with the US Securities and Exchange Commission or by the
disclosure policies of a major Stock Exchange. 



11





 




        15.4    Modification and Amendment.    No supplement, modification or amendment of this Agreement, including the
Appendices thereof, shall be binding unless in writing and executed by MProbes and Immunicon. 


        15.5    Severability.    To the extent that any provision of this Agreement is found by a court of competent
jurisdiction to violate any applicable law or regulation in any jurisdiction, or does so in the opinion of counsel mutually acceptable to both parties, such provision shall be deemed modified only in
that jurisdiction and only to the extent necessary to comply with such law or regulation. In such circumstances, the parties agree to negotiate in good faith amendments to this Agreement designed to
restore to the parties the economic benefits they held under this Agreement prior to the modification. 


        15.6    Counterparts and Headings.    This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall
be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. All headings and captions are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the meaning
or interpretation of any provision hereof. 


        15.7    Relationship of the Parties.    The status of Immunicon and MProbes hereunder is solely that of independent
contractors. This Agreement shall not create an agency, partnership, joint venture, or employer/employee relationship between the parties, and nothing hereunder shall be deemed to authorize either
party to act for, represent or bind the other except as expressly provided in this Agreement. 



        15.8    Waiver.    No waiver of any right under this Agreement shall be deemed effective unless contained in writing
and signed by the party charged with such waiver, and no waiver of any right shall be deemed to be a waiver of any future right or any other right arising under this Agreement. All rights, remedies,
undertakings, obligations and agreements contained in this Agreement shall be cumulative and none of them shall be a limitation of any other remedy, right, undertaking, obligation or agreement. 


        15.9    Patents and Trademarks.    No right or license is granted by either party hereunder, except as expressly
stated herein, to use or practice any patent rights of the other party, or to use the name, trademarks or tradenames of the other party. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as conferring any
right on either party to use or exploit any trade secret or other proprietary right of the other party, except as expressly set forth herein or as may be otherwise separately agreed in writing by the
parties. 


        15.10    Dispute Resolution.    In the event of any dispute between the parties concerning this Agreement, the parties
shall first attempt a resolution thereof by referring the dispute to senior management representatives of each party who shall discuss the matter between them and attempt to reach a reasonable
compromise or other disposition of the dispute. In the event such a compromise or disposition cannot be achieved, the dispute shall be referred to Endispute or a similar dispute resolution
organization for a decision, in accordance with the rules of dispute resolution proceedings of such organization, resolving the dispute, which decision shall be binding upon the parties. 


        15.11    Entire Agreement.    This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto relating to
the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous negotiations, representations, agreements and understandings of the parties relating thereto, whether written or oral. Any
Appendices referred to in this Agreement are incorporated by reference and made a part of this Agreement. The terms of any purchase order, equivalent document or acknowledgement prepared in connection
with this Agreement shall be binding on the parties only to the extent not inconsistent herewith.
