ADDENDUM TO 

AMENDED AND RESTATED DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT

 

This ADDENDUM TO AMENDED AND
RESTATED DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT (this “Addendum”), is
made effective and entered into as of November 5, 2010 (the “Effective Date”), by and among Novadaq Technologies Inc., a
Canadian corporation (“Novadaq Parent”),
Novadaq Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Novadaq”),
which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Novadaq Parent, PLC Systems Inc., a Yukon
Territory corporation (“PLC Parent”),
and PLC Medical Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“PLC”), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of PLC Parent.

 

WHEREAS, Novadaq Parent,
Novadaq and PLC Parent and PLC are parties to the AMENDED AND RESTATED
DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”),
dated as of March 20, 2007 (the “Distribution Agreement”);
and

 

WHEREAS, Novadaq, PLC and
PLC Parent have entered into that certain Asset Purchase Agreement concurrent
with the execution of this Addendum for the purchase and sale of PLC’s assets
pertaining to its TMR (transmyocardial revascularization) business (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”).

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the mutual agreements and covenants contained herein and for
other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are
hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties
hereto agree as follows:

 

1.             Full Payment of Novadaq
Obligations.  Novadaq,
Novadaq Parent, PLC Parent and PLC hereby acknowledge and agree that full
payment by Novadaq of all amounts due PLC Parent or PLC shall be paid at
Closing. This payment shall include (a) all outstanding accounts payable
properly billed to Novadaq by PLC prior to the Closing, (b) all sums due
and owing to PLC under the Distribution Agreement as of the Closing, including
normal prior monthly true-up payments still outstanding as of the Closing and (c) all
final sums due and owing to PLC pursuant to a final interim true-up, which
shall account for all activities from the date of the last normal month end
true-up performed and the Closing date (the “Final
True-up Payment”). The parties agree that the Final True-up Payment
will be calculated in accordance with the normal month-end true up accounting
practice that has historically been followed by the parties. PLC Parent and PLC
acknowledge and agree upon receipt of payment of all these amounts, Novadaq
shall be deemed to have been paid up in full.

 

2.             Special Purchase Order.  Novadaq has submitted to PLC, and PLC hereby
acknowledges acceptance of Purchase Order No 3925, (the “Special PO”) for six hundred (600) TMR
Disposable Kits at the per unit price of $110, none of which shall be subject
to the true-up provisions set forth in Section 7.1 of the Distribution
Agreement except to the extent that Paragraph 3 or Paragraph 4 below applies.  A copy of the Special PO is attached as Appendix
A to this Addendum.  PLC hereby
acknowledges receipt from Novadaq of payment in the amount

 

 

of Sixty Six Thousand
Dollars ($66,000) as payment in connection with the Special PO.  For clarity, unless the conditions set forth
in either Paragraph 3 or 4 apply, the net amount payable by Novadaq to PLC for
the six hundred (600) TMR Disposable Kits purchased under the Special PO shall
be Sixty Six Thousand Dollars ($66,000). 
One hundred and fifty (150) of the TMR Disposable Kits ordered under the
Special PO shall be delivered as soon as reasonably practicable after the
Effective Date and the remaining four hundred and fifty (450) of the TMR
Disposable Kits shall be delivered on the Closing date of the Asset Purchase
Agreement.

 

3.             If Shareholders’ Approval Not
Obtained or if Dissenters’ Rights Are Exercised.  In the event that the Asset Purchase
Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby do not close or otherwise
complete as a consequence of (a) PLC and PLC Parent having failed to
obtain the requisite approval of each company’s respective shareholders or (b) holders
of PLC Parent shares (other than shares held by officers and directors of PLC
Parent and any affiliate of any officer or director) with a fair market value
of at least $200,000 (as measured based upon the closing price of PLC Parent’s
common stock reported on the OTC Bulletin Board on the last business day
immediately prior to the PLC Parent Shareholders’ Meeting (as defined in the
Asset Purchase Agreement)) and who are entitled to vote at the PLC Parent
Shareholders’ Meeting having exercised their rights to dissent/object at or
prior to the PLC Parent Shareholders’ Meeting under Section 193 of the
Yukon Business Corporations Act, as amended (which dissension or objection has
not been legally withdrawn by the time of the stockholder vote), then the
true-up provisions in Section 7.1 of the Distribution Agreement shall
apply to four hundred and fifty (450) of the six hundred (600) TMR Disposable
Kits supplied under the Special PO with credit allowance for the One Hundred
and Ten Dollars ($110) for each which Novadaq has paid.  Novadaq shall have the right to request
delivery of these four hundred and fifty (450) TMR Disposable Kits at on a schedule
determined in its reasonable discretion but not later than twelve (12) months
after the Effective Date.  For clarity,
the remaining one hundred and fifty (150) TMR Disposable Kits in the Special PO
shall remain the fully paid-up property of Novadaq and exempt from the true-up
provisions in Section 7.1 of the Distribution Agreement.

 

4.             If Novadaq Customer Demand Depletes
TMR Kit Inventory. In the event that Novadaq’s on-hand inventory of TMR
kits as of the Effective Date, including an additional 75 TMR Disposable Kits
recently ordered by Novadaq and to be delivered by PLC shortly after the
Effective Date, is depleted down to zero kits anytime prior to the Closing
date, then Novadaq shall be permitted to ship some or all of the 150 TMR
Disposable Kits ordered on the Special PO to meet end-user customer demand.
However, in this event, the number of TMR Disposable Kits shipped out by
Novadaq prior to Closing from the lot of 150 TMR Disposable Kits shall be
subject to the true-up provisions in Section 7.1 of the Distribution
Agreement with credit allowance for the One Hundred and Ten Dollars ($110), and
PLC’s requirement to deliver 600 TMR Disposable Kits at Closing shall be
correspondingly reduced by the same number of TMR Disposable Kits shipped from
the lot of 150 TMR Disposable Kits prior to the Closing date.

 

5.             Regulatory Authorizations.  All TMR Disposable Kits
purchased by Novadaq under the New PO and Special PO shall be deemed to have
been duly approved and authorized for distribution and sale by Novadaq and use
by customers and end-users in the United States under the FDA’s premarket
approval (“PMA”) for such products
held by PLC and/or PLC Parent and corresponding approvals and/or certifications
applicable in markets outside of the

United States.

 

6.             Other Provisions.  Except as expressly amended by this Addendum,
the Distribution Agreement shall remain in full force and effect as presently
written, and the rights, duties, liabilities and obligations of the parties
thereto, as presently constituted, will continue in full effect.  This Addendum and it Exhibits, together with

and shall inure to the benefit of each of the parties hereto and their

Director shall receive Options or Shares for a pro rata share of the total
number of Shares available under the 2004 Plan. All Options granted under the

this Section III, (ii) subject to the exercise restriction set forth

adjustment as provided in Section VII and to the terms and conditions set

stock option grant pursuant to Section III (a) will be issued,

Common Stock; provided, however, for independent directors elected since the September 2009
annual stockholders meeting, the annual grant is increased to 2,000 shares for

independent director designated as Chairman, the annual grant shall be 4,000
shares; provided further, that for fiscal year 2010, the grant for independent
directors shall be adjusted to one-half of the 875 share annual grant
heretofore plus one-half of the new independent director annual grant of 2,000

further adjustment.  If, as of such
annual meeting date there are not sufficient Shares available under the 2004
Plan to allow the grant to each eligible Independent Director of Shares or
Options pursuant to Section III (a) for the number of shares provided
herein, each eligible Independent Director will receive Shares or Options for a
pro rata share of the total number of Shares available under the 2004 Plan. All
Shares granted under this Section III(d) are non-transferable for six
months following the grant date.  [amended March 24, 2010]

Director shall be required to forfeit or otherwise return to the Company any
Shares of Common Stock issued to him or her as a grant pursuant to the 2004
Plan notwithstanding any change in status of such Independent Director which
renders him or her ineligible to continue as a Participant in the 2004 Plan.

Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders shall be entitled to receive an Option
or Stock grant notwithstanding any change in status of such Independent

Stock.

VII.                          Adjustments

 

(a)                                 The existence
of outstanding Stock Options shall not affect in any way the right or power of
the Company or its stockholders to make or authorize any or all adjustments,
recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in the Company’s capital
structure or its business, or any merger or consolidation of the Company, or
any issue of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference stock ahead of,
or affecting, the Common Stock or the rights thereof, or the dissolution or
liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its
assets of business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a
similar character or otherwise.

shall effect a subdivision or consolidation of shares or other capital
readjustment, the payment of a stock dividend, or other increase or reduction
of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding, without receiving
compensation therefor in money, services or property, then: (i) the number
and per share price of shares of Common Stock subject to outstanding Stock
Options hereunder shall be appropriately adjusted in such a manner as to
entitle a Participant to receive upon exercise of a Stock Option, for the same
aggregate cash consideration, the same total number and class or classes of
Shares as the Participant would have received had he or she exercised his or
her Stock Option in full immediately prior to the event requiring the
adjustment; and (ii) the number and class or classes of shares then
reserved for issuance under the 2004 Plan shall be adjusted by substituting for
the total number of Shares of Common Stock then reserved that number and class
or classes of Shares of Common Stock that would have been received by the owner
of an equal number of outstanding Shares of Common Stock as the result of the
event requiring the adjustment.

 

(c)                                  If, while
unexercised Stock Options remain outstanding under the 2004 Plan: (i) the
Company is merged into or consolidated with another corporation under
circumstances where the Company is not the surviving corporation or the Common
Stock is converted into other securities, cash or other property in connection
with such merger or consolidation; (ii) the Company sells or otherwise disposes
of substantially all its assets to another person, corporation or entity; (iii) the
Company is liquidated or dissolved; (iv) over 50 percent of the
outstanding Common Stock is acquired by another corporation in exchange for
stock (or stock and other securities) of such corporation; or (v) over 50
percent of the then outstanding Common Stock is acquired in a single
transaction or a series of related transactions, then after the effective date
of such merger, consolidation, exchange, liquidation, sale or acquisition, as
the case may be, each holder of an outstanding Stock Option shall be entitled,
upon exercise of such Stock Option, to receive, in lieu of shares of Common
Stock, shares of such stock or other securities of the Company or the surviving
or acquiring corporation or such other property at the same rate per share as
the holders of shares of Common Stock received pursuant to the terms of the
merger, consolidation, exchange liquidation, sale or acquisition.

 

4

 

(d)                                 Except as
expressly provided herein, the issuance by the Company of shares of stock of
any class, or securities convertible into shares or stock of any class, for
cash, property, labor, or services, either upon direct sale, exercise of tights
of warrants to subscribe therefor, or conversion of shares or obligations of
the Company convertible into such shares or other securities, shall not affect,
and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number,
class or price of Shares of Common Stock then subject to outstanding Stock
Options.

 

VIII.                     Terms
and Conditions of Stock Options

Participant’s life, the Stock Option is exercisable only by the Participant or
by his or her guardian or legal representative.

 

(b)                                 A Stock Option
under this 2004 Plan is not assignable or transferable, except by will or by
the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a qualified domestic
relations order (as defined in the Code), and is not subject, in whole or in
part, to attachment, execution or levy of any kind.

 

(c)                                  Any Stock
Option or portion thereof that is exercisable shall be exercisable for the full
amount or for any part thereof.

 

(d)                                 Stock Options
shall be exercised by the delivery of written notice to the Company setting
forth the number of Shares of Common Stock with respect to which the Stock
Option is to be exercised and, subject to the provisions hereof, the address to
which the certificates representing shares issuable upon the exercise of such
Stock Option shall be mailed. In order to be effective, such written notice
shall be accompanied at the time of its delivery to the Company by payment of
the exercise price of such Shares, which payment shall be made in cash or by
check, bank draft, or postal or express money order payable to the order of the
Company in an amount (in United States dollars) equal to the exercise price of
such Shares or as provided in subsection (e) below. Such notice shall be
delivered in person to the Secretary of the Company, or shall be sent by
registered mail, return receipt requested, to the secretary of the Company, in
which case, delivery shall be deemed made on the date such notice is deposited
in the mail. When Shares are to be issued or delivered pursuant to the 2004
Plan, but only to the extent that the Company determines that tax withholding
is required pursuant to applicable law or regulation, the Company shall require
the Participant to remit to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy
federal, state and local withholding tax requirements prior to the delivery of
any certificate or certificates for such Shares, which payment may be made in
the manner set forth above or in the manner permitted by clause (c) below.

 

(e)                                  Alternatively,
payment of the exercise price may be made, in whole or in part, by delivery of
Shares previously issued to the Participant. Unless otherwise permitted by the
Board, payment of the exercise price in Shares shall be made only with Shares
owned by the Participant for at least six (6) months. If payment is made
in whole or in part in Shares owned by the Participant, then the Participant
shall deliver to the Company, exercised: (i) certificates registered in
the name of such Participant, free of all liens, claims and encumbrances of
every kind and having a Fair Market Value as of the date of delivery of such
notice that is not greater than the exercise price of the Shares of Common
Stock with respect to which such Stock Option is to be exercised plus any
applicable tax required to be withheld by the Company, such certificates to be
accompanied by stock powers duly endorsed in blank by the record holder of the
Shares represented by such certificates; and (ii) if the exercise price of
the Shares with respect to which such Stock Option is to be exercised exceeds
such Fair Market Value, cash or check, bank draft or postal or express money
order payable to the order of the Company in an amount (in United States
dollars) equal to the amount of such excess.

 

(f)                                   Stock Options
granted to any Participant under this 2004 Plan shall be subject to the
following conditions:

 

(1)                                 The price per
share shall be as set forth in Section III.

 

5

 

(2)                                 Except as
otherwise provided in paragraph (3) below, each Stock Option shall have a
term of ten (10) years from the date such Option is granted and shall vest
in accordance with Section III(c) hereof.

 

(3)                                 A Stock Option
shall lapse and expire in the following situations:

 

(i)                   If a Termination of
Directorship occurs with respect to any Participant, for any reason other than
death or Disability, any and all unexercised and vested Stock Options held by
such Participant shall expire: (A) as of 12:01 AM (Hawaii Standard Time)
on the date which is three (3) months after the date of such Termination
of Directorship; or (B) on the expiration date of the term of the Stock
Option, whichever date is earlier.

 

(ii)                If a Termination of
Directorship occurs with respect to any Participant by reason of the death or
Disability of such Participant, any and all unexercised and vested Stock
Options shall expire: (A) as of 12:01 AM (Hawaii Standard Time) on the
date which is one (1) year from the date of the Termination of
Directorship due to such death or Disability; or (B) on the expiration
date of the term of the Stock Option, whichever date is earlier. Any such
vested and unexercised Stock Option may be exercised by the Designated
Beneficiary of a deceased Participant, or the legal guardian of a disabled
Participant, subject to all applicable provisions of the 2004 Plan.

 

(iii)             In the event of Participant’s
Termination of Directorship for any reason other than not being re-elected at
an annual meeting of stockholders, including death or disability, any portion
of a previously granted Stock Option that was not exercisable on the date of
such Termination of Directorship shall automatically expire as of 12:01 AM
(Hawaii Standard Time) on the date of Termination of Directorship, and no
further vesting of such Stock Option shall occur.

 

IX.                              Power
to Amend

 

The
Board of Directors may modify, revise or terminate the 2004 Plan at any time
and from time to time; provided, however, that the 2004 Plan shall not be
amended more than once every six (6) months, other than to comport with
changes in the Code, or the regulations thereunder, or the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or the regulations thereunder; and
provided, further, that without the approval of the holders of at least a
majority of the outstanding Shares of the Company’s voting stock, the Board of
Directors may not (i) materially increase the benefits accruing to
Participants under the 2004 Plan; (ii) change the aggregate number of
Shares which may be issued under the 2004 Plan; (iii) reduce the Option
price at which Options have been granted; or (iv) change the class of
persons eligible to receive Options. However, no termination or amendment of
the 2004 Plan may, without the consent of the holder of any Option then
outstanding adversely affect the rights of such holder under the Option.

 

X.                                   Exercise
of Options; No Registration

 

The
Company shall not be required to sell or issue any shares of Common Stock under
any Stock Option or grant Shares if the issuance of such shares shall
constitute a violation by the Participant or the Company of any provision of
any law, statute, or regulation of any governmental authority whether it be
Federal or State. Specifically, in connection with the Securities Act, upon
grant of Shares or exercise of any Stock Option, unless a registration statement
under the Securities Act is in effect with respect thereto, the Company shall
not be required to issue such shares unless the Board has received evidence
satisfactory to it to the effect that the holder is acquiring such shares of
Common Stock for investment and not with a view to the distribution thereof,
and that such shares of Common Stock may otherwise be issued without
registration under the Securities Act or state securities laws. Any
determination in this connection by the Board shall be final, binding and
conclusive. The Company may, but shall in no event be obligated to, register
any securities covered hereby pursuant to the Securities Act. The Company shall
not be obligated to take any affirmative action in order to cause the exercise
of a Stock Option, or the issuance of shares pursuant thereto, to comply with
any law or regulation of any governmental authority. Certificates for Stock issued
under the 2004 Plan are subject to such legends, stock transfer orders and
other restrictions as the Company may consider necessary or advisable.

XI.                              Withholding

 

The
provisions of this section shall apply only to the extent that the Company
determines that tax withholding is required, pursuant to applicable law or
regulation, at the time that Shares are to be issued or delivered pursuant to
the 2004 Plan. If the Company determines that tax withholding is required, the
Company shall require the Participant to remit to the Company and amount
sufficient to satisfy any applicable federal, state and local withholding tax
requirements prior to the delivery of any certificate or certificates for
Shares. The Company shall also have the right to withhold from any fees or
other compensation payable by the Company to the Participant an amount
sufficient to satisfy any applicable federal, state and local withholding tax
requirement.

 

XII.                         Stock
Option Agreement

 

The
Stock Options awarded to a Participant shall be evidenced by a separate written
agreement (the “Stock Option Agreement”) which shall be subject to the terms
and provisions of the 2004 Plan, and which shall be signed by the Participant
and by a duly authorized officer, other than the Participant, in the name of
and on behalf of the Company. In the event of any inconsistency or conflict
between the terms of the 2004 Plan and a Stock Option Agreement, the terms of
the 2004 Plan shall govern.

 

XIII.                    No
Rights as Stockholder

 

A
holder of a Stock Option shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to
any Shares of Common Stock until the issuance of a certificate for such Shares.
Except as otherwise provided in Section VII, no adjustment shall be made
for dividends (ordinary or extraordinary, whether in cash, securities, or other
property) or distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior
to the date such certificate is issued.

 

XIV.                     No
Right to Reelection

 

Nothing
in the 2004 Plan is to be deemed to create any obligation on the part of the
Board to nominate any of its members for reelection by the Company’s
stockholders, nor confer upon an Independent Director the right to remain a
member of the Board for any period of time, or at any particular rate of
compensation.

 

XV.                          No
Assignment or Allocation of Benefits

 

No
right or benefit under this 2004 Plan shall be subject to anticipation,
alienation, sale assignment, pledge, encumbrance, or charge and any such act
shall be void, except for any transfer pursuant to the Participant’s will or
under the laws of descent and distribution or as otherwise permitted pursuant
to Section VIII hereof. No right or benefit hereunder shall in any manner
be liable for or subject to any debts, contract, liabilities, or torts of the
person entitled to such right or benefit.

 

XVI.                     Gender,
Tense and Headings

 

Whenever
the context so requires, words of the masculine gender used herein shall
include the feminine and neuter, and words used in the singular shall include
the plural. Section headings as used herein are inserted solely for
convenience and reference and constitute no part of the construction of this
2004 Plan. The words, “hereunder,” “herein,” “hereof’ and similar compounds of
the word “here” shall refer to the entire 2004 Plan and not to any particular
section or provision.

 

XVII.                No
Guarantee of Tax Consequences

 

The
Company makes no commitment or guarantee that any federal, state or local tax
treatment will apply or be available to any Non-Employee Director participating
or eligible to participate herein.

XVIII.           Severability

 

In
the event that any provision of this 2004 Plan is held to be illegal, invalid
or unenforceable, such provision shall be fully severable, but shall not affect
the remaining provisions of the 2004 Plan, and the 2004 Plan shall be construed
and enforced as if the illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision had not
been included herein.

 

XIX.                    Stockholder
Approval

 

Notwithstanding
any other provision of the 2004 Plan, the 2004 Plan must be approved by the
holders of at least a majority of the shares of Stock present, or represented,
and entitled to vote thereon, at a duly held stockholders’ meeting within 12
months after the date of its adoption by the Board, and no Stock Options or no
shares of Common Stock shall be issued under the 2004 Plan until such approval
has been secured.

 

XX.                         Interpretations

 

The
provisions of the 2004 Plan shall be construed, administered, and governed by
the laws of the State of Hawaii, without giving effect to principles of
conflicts of laws, and, to the extent applicable, the laws of the United States
of America and the State of Nevada.

 

XXI.                    Government
Regulations

 

The
2004 Plan, the granting and exercise of Stock Options and Shares thereunder,
and the obligations of the Company to sell and deliver Shares under such Stock
Options, are subject to all applicable laws, rules and regulations, and to
such approvals by any governmental agencies or national securities exchanges as
may be required.
