CONSULTING AGREEMENT
​
April 25, 2021
Scott Huennekens
​
Dear Scott:
​
We are pleased that you (“Consultant”) have agreed to perform consulting services for Hyperfine Research, Inc. (the “Company”). This Agreement confirms our understanding with respect to (i) Consultant rendering services to the Company, (ii) your agreement not to solicit employees of the Company and (iii) your agreement to protect and preserve information and property that is confidential and proprietary to the Company or other parties with whom the Company is affiliated or does business including, but not limited to, each of the companies that has received, may receive or currently receives services from 4Catalyzer Corporation (“4C”). (The terms and conditions agreed to in this letter shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Agreement”.) The companies that currently receive or may receive services from 4C include, but are not limited to, AI Therapeutics, Inc., Quantum-Si Incorporated, Detect, Inc., Tesseract Health, Inc., Protein Evolution, Inc., and Liminal Sciences, Inc. (such companies that have received, may receive or currently receive services from 4C herein collectively the “Supported Companies”). In consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby mutually acknowledged, we have agreed as follows:
​
1.            Services of Consultant.
​
(a)           Consultant agrees to render consulting services to the Company. The principal services will be aiding the Company in connection with its Field of Interest (as defined below). From time to time Consultant and Company shall agree in writing (via email shall be sufficient) on the requirements and scope of each project, including any deliverables to be provided, and maximum hours billable for each such project. Each project shall be completed and all deliverables delivered within the agreed number of hours (any additional hours required shall be performed without additional charge). All materials and documents produced in connection with Consultant’s services, and all versions thereof, shall be kept in an electronic folder maintained by Company. Company shall provide Consultant with access to such folder for such purpose. In performing consulting services for the Company, Consultant shall provide consultation at such times and locations as are mutually agreeable to the Company and Consultant. To the extent that Consultant has employees and/or agents that shall perform services on its behalf in connection with this Agreement, Consultant shall ensure that all such employees and agents adhere to the terms of this Agreement (as though each such employee or agent constitutes “Consultant” hereunder). Consultant shall be responsible and liable for any and all breaches of this Agreement caused by such employees or agents. In connection with Consultant’s performance of services, the Company shall have the right to publicize Consultant’s affiliation with the Company. Consultant shall use its best efforts in the performance of the services.
​
​

​

​

(b)           Consultant acknowledges and agrees that it currently is not a party to any other agreement, arrangement, understanding or other relationship pursuant to which Consultant is obligated to render advice and services to a commercial entity in the Company’s “Field of Interest.” The term “Field of Interest” currently means Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), nuclear magnetic resonance imaging (NMRI), and/or magnetic resonance tomography (MRT). The Company may modify the definition of its Field of Interest by written notice to Consultant based on the activities in which the Company is then engaged or in which the Company then proposes to be engaged.
​
2.          Term of Consulting Arrangement. The term of this Agreement shall commence on April 25, 2021 and shall continue until the date of termination by either party as set forth in written notice thereof (the “Term”). The right of the Company or Consultant to terminate this Agreement, to which Consultant hereby agrees, shall be effective as of the date of such notice or as expressly indicated in such notice.
​
3.             Compensation for Services.
​
(a)        The Company shall pay, as the exclusive compensation for the services and agreements hereunder, $10,000.00 per month of services provided by Consultant as Executive Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors, payable monthly. The Company will reimburse reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred at the Company’s request from time to time.
​
4.            Continuing Obligations. Consultant’s obligations and the Company’s obligations under this Agreement other than the provisions of Section 1 shall not be affected: (i) by any termination of this consulting arrangement, including termination upon the Company’s initiative; nor (ii) by any change in the nature of the services provided; nor (iii) by any interruption in the consulting arrangement.
​
5.            Prohibited Activity.
​
(a)          Certain Acknowledgements and Agreements.
​
(i)                 Company and Consultant have discussed, and Consultant recognizes and acknowledges the competitive and proprietary nature of the Company’s and Supporting Companies’ business operations.
​
(ii)             Consultant further acknowledges and agrees that, during the course of performing services for the Company, the Company and Supporting Companies will furnish, disclose or make available to Consultant, and Consultant may develop, confidential and proprietary information related to the Company’s and Supporting Companies’ business. Consultant also acknowledges that such confidential information has been developed and will be developed by or on behalf of the Company through the expenditure by the Company of substantial time, effort and money. For the avoidance of doubt, Company understands that (i) Consultant has provided notice of his resignation from the Viewray board of directors, and that such resignation shall take effect in mid-June, and (ii) that Consultant is a member of the board of directors for Q’Apel.
​
​

​

(b)           Covenants Not to Solicit. Consultant shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company, during the Term and for a period of two (2) years after termination thereof, for itself or on behalf of or through any third party, directly or indirectly, solicit, entice or persuade or attempt to solicit, entice or persuade any employees of or consultants to the Company or any present or future parent, subsidiary or affiliate of the Company to leave the services of the Company or any such parent, subsidiary or affiliate for any reason or to directly or indirectly hire, employ or retain or offer to hire, employ or retain on behalf of any business any employee of or consultants to the Company or any present or future parent, subsidiary or affiliate of the Company.
​
(c)           Reasonableness of Restrictions. Consultant recognizes and acknowledges that (i) the types of services which are prohibited by this Section 5 are narrow and reasonable in relation to the scope of Consultant’s services which represent its principal salable asset both to the Company and to other prospective purchasers of Consultant’s services, and (ii) the specific but broad geographical scope of the provisions of this Section 5 is reasonable, legitimate and fair to Consultant in light of the Company’s and Supported Companies’ need to market their services and sell its products in a large geographic area in order to have a sufficient customer base to make the Company’s and Supported Companies’ business profitable and in light of the limited restrictions on the type of services prohibited herein compared to the types of services that Consultant provides.
​
(d)          Survival of Acknowledgements and Agreements. Consultant’s acknowledgements and agreements set forth in this Section 5 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement and the termination, for any reason, of consulting services.
​
6.           Protected Information. Consultant shall at all times, both during the Term and after any termination of this Agreement, maintain in confidence and shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company, use, except in the course of performing consulting services for the Company, disclose or give to others any fact or information which was disclosed to or developed by Consultant during the course of performing services for, or receiving training from, the Company, (or any customer, vendor, or third party in connection with your services to Company, including, but not limited to, 4C and the Supported Companies), and is not generally available to the public including, but not limited to, this Agreement, the terms hereof, the fact that Company and Supported Companies are working with or has had discussions with you, technical data, trade secrets, know-how, show-how, research, product plans, products, services, customer lists and customers, markets, software, developments, Inventions (as defined in Section 7), processes, formulas, technology, designs, drawings, engineering, hardware configuration information, marketing, finances or any other scientific, technical, trade or business information of the Company (or any customer, vendor, or third party in connection with your services to Company, including, but not limited to, 4C and the Supported Companies) developed by you or disclosed to you by the Company or Supported Companies either directly or indirectly in writing, orally or by drawings or observation (collectively, “Confidential Information”). Confidential Information shall additionally include, without limitation, the nature and existence of the discussions and of any relationship between the parties. For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Consultant shall not use or disclose any Confidential Information (including, but not limited to, product information, plans, ideas, designs, features, functions or specifications) to, or on behalf of, any third party in connection with promotion, marketing, or solicitation of any product, service or business. Consultant also agrees not to file patents, copyrights or trademark applications based on the Company’s technology, property or Confidential Information, nor seek to make improvements thereon, without the Company’s approval. Consultant agrees not to make any copies of such Confidential Information of the Company (except when appropriate for the furtherance of the business of the Company or duly and specifically authorized to do so) and promptly upon request by the Company, whether during or after the period of the consulting arrangement, to return to the Company or otherwise dispose of as requested by the Company any and all documentary, machine-readable or other elements or evidence of such Confidential Information, and any copies that may be in Consultant’s possession or control. In the event Consultant is questioned by anyone not employed by the Company or by an employee of or a consultant to the Company not authorized to receive such information, in regard to any such information or any other secret or confidential work of the Company, or concerning any fact or circumstance relating thereto, Consultant will promptly notify the President of the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, Consultant shall not disclose to Company, and Company does not wish to receive, any confidential information of any third party, including without limitation, Viewray and Q’Apel.

The Consultant does not need the prior authorization of the Company to make any such reports or disclosures and the Consultant is not required to notify the Company that the Consultant has made such reports or disclosures. Under the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, the Company hereby provides notice and Consultant hereby acknowledges that Consultant may not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that (i) is made (A) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney and (B) is solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (ii) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal.

Confidential Information shall not include any such information, idea, data or know-how that (i) is already known to the receiving party (other than under an obligation of confidentiality) at the time of disclosure, (ii) is or becomes generally available to the public other than through any act or omission of the receiving party, (iii) is disclosed to the receiving party by a third party who had no separate nondisclosure obligation in respect of such information, idea, data or know-how, or (iv) is independently discovered or developed by or on behalf of the receiving party without use of the Confidential Information of the disclosing party.
​
“Effective Time” means the effective time of any merger in which Butterfly is a constituent party, and the other party to such merger is either (i) a corporate entity, the securities of which are listed on a public exchange or (ii) a direct or indirect parent company or subsidiary of a corporate entity, the securities of which are listed on a public exchange.
​
“Non-Core Technologies” means, with respect to Butterfly or a Participant, any technology, information or equipment owned or otherwise controlled by Butterfly or such Participant, respectively, that are not specifically related to the core business area of Butterfly or such Participant, respectively. Non-Core Technologies may include, without limitation, software, hardware, electronics, fabrication and supplier information, vendor lists and contractor lists.
​
2.NON-CORE TECHNOLOGY SHARE
​
2.1Any Participant may, in its sole discretion, permit Butterfly to use such Participant’s Non-Core Technologies as set forth in a written work order entered into by and between Butterfly and such Participant pursuant to (and subject to) this Agreement, that describes at least (i) the Non-Core Technologies permitted to be used, (ii) the terms of such use and restrictions with respect to such use, (iii) any fees or other compensation payable for such use, which shall be fair market value, (iv) payment terms, and (iv) such other terms as the two parties may agree (each a “Technology Work Order”). Butterfly may, in its sole discretion, permit a Participant to use Butterfly’s Non-Core Technologies as set forth in a Technology Work Order entered into by and between Butterfly and such Participant. Each Technology Work Order is subject to and governed by the terms of this Agreement. In the event of a conflict between the terms of a Technology Work Order and the terms of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall take precedence.
​
2.2Each party will use no less than reasonable care in its use of the other party’s shared Non-Core Technologies, and, subject to the terms of the applicable Technology Work Order and this Agreement, shall not share such Non-Core Technologies with any other party or any third party (except for consultants and contractors for use on such party’s behalf). In addition, each party may allow third parties to use the other party’s Non-Core Technologies subject to the terms of the applicable Technology Work Order, but in any case only in the same manner such party is allowed to use the same under the applicable Technology Work Order to the extent such technologies are embedded in or required for the use by such third parties of such party’s own products or services.
​

2.3For avoidance of doubt, as among the parties and any third party receiving the shared Non-Core Technology directly or indirectly from a receiving party, ownership of Non-Core Technologies (and all intellectual property rights therein) shall remain with the party that originally shared such Non-Core Technologies.
​
3.SHARED SERVICES
​
3.1Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Butterfly may, in its sole discretion, permit a Participant to engage the personnel of Butterfly, and any Participant may, in its sole discretion, permit Butterfly to engage the personnel of such Participant, in either case to perform professional, technical or consulting services for such party as shall be set forth in a written work order entered into by and between Butterfly and such Participant pursuant to (and referring to) this Agreement that, at least, identifies and describes (i) the personnel to perform the services, (ii) the services to be provided, (iii) the fees or other compensation payable for such services, which shall be fair market value, (iv) payment terms, and (v) such other terms as the two parties may agree (each a “Services Work Order”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any Service Work Order or Technology Work Order, no personnel engaged under this Agreement may solicit, perform, or provide, or attempt to perform or provide any services that compete directly or indirectly with the core business area of the Originating Participant. Each Services Work Order is subject to and governed by the terms of this Agreement. In the event of a conflict between the terms of a Services Work Order and the terms of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall take precedence.

3.2Subject to Section 3.1, unless otherwise agreed to by Butterfly and the Participant in the Services Work Order, all rights, title and interest in and to any inventions, works-of-authorship, idea, data or know-how invented, made, created or developed by the personnel (employees, contractors or consultants) of the party in the course of conducting services for the other party pursuant to a Services Work Order (the “Recipient Participant”) shall be owned by the Recipient Participant (“Created IP”). Each Originating Participant (defined below) hereby makes any assignments necessary to accomplish the foregoing ownership provision, and agrees to execute any documents reasonably requested by the Recipient Participant to further effect or provide evidence of such assignment. Each party agrees that it has and will have appropriate agreements with all of its personnel to fully effect the provisions of this Section 3.2. Unless otherwise agreed to by Butterfly and the Participant in the Services Work Order, each Recipient Participant hereby grants to the party that had its personnel provide the services that resulted in the creation of the Created IP (the “Originating Participant”) a royalty-free, perpetual, limited, worldwide, non-exclusive, sublicensable (and with respect to software, sublicensable in object code only) license to utilize the Created IP only in the core business field of the Originating Participant, including the license to create and use derivative works based on the Created IP in the Originating Participant’s core business field, subject to any restrictions as may be set forth in this Agreement and the applicable Services Work Order. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Butterfly and each Participant agree that no Recipient Participant will use Created IP to compete directly or indirectly in the core business area of the Originating Participant.
​
3.3Each party agrees that all of its personnel who conduct any services hereunder for a Recipient Participant may be required by the Recipient Participant to enter into a consulting agreement, a nondisclosure agreement, a non-solicitation agreement and/or a noncompetition agreement with the Recipient Participant with respect to the core business field of the Recipient Participant, as reasonably determined by the Recipient Participant. In the event that the obligations of each such personnel under this Agreement conflict with the obligations of such personnel under such consulting agreement and/or noncompetition agreement, as the case may be, the obligations of such personnel under this Agreement shall take precedence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless expressly permitted under this Agreement, if any obligations of such personnel under any such consulting agreement, non-disclosure agreement and/or noncompetition agreement conflict with the obligations of such personnel’s employment agreement, the obligations of such employment agreement shall take precedence.
​
4.CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION
​
Each of the parties recognizes that the Confidential Information of each other party constitutes highly valuable and proprietary confidential information. Each party agrees that it will keep confidential, and will cause its employees,
​

​
consultants, designees and affiliates to keep confidential, all Confidential Information of the other parties during the term of this Agreement and for a period of ten (10) years thereafter. Each party shall use Confidential Information of the other parties only to conduct its business. Each party will disclose Confidential Information of another party only to its employees, consultants, designees and affiliates on a “need-to-know” basis. Such disclosures shall only be made to the extent any such persons receiving the other party’s Confidential Information are bound by written confidentiality obligations to maintain the confidentiality thereof and not to use such Confidential Information except as permitted by this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, each party may disclose information to the extent such disclosure is reasonably necessary to comply with applicable laws, regulations or court orders. Each party shall take such action to preserve the confidentiality of the other parties’ Confidential Information as it would customarily take to preserve the confidentiality of its own Confidential Information, using, in all such circumstances, not less than reasonable care. Each party, upon the request of the other party but subject to such requested party’s rights under Section 7.3 will return all the Confidential Information disclosed or transferred to it by the other party pursuant to this Agreement within sixty (60) days of such request or, if earlier, the termination or expiration of this Agreement. Each party, as receiving party, will comply with any and all third party restrictions placed on the disclosing party of which it was made aware by the disclosing party with respect to the use or disclosure of Confidential Information of the disclosing party.

​

​
8.1Limitation of Liability. In no event shall any party be liable to any other party for any indirect incidental, punitive, special or consequential damages arising out of or relating to this Agreement, whether in contract, tort or otherwise, even if such party has been advised of such damages. The aggregate and cumulative liability of each party to each other party for all damages arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall in no event exceed the amounts paid and payable by such party to such other party under the Technology Work Order or Service Work Order (as applicable) under which the liability arose. Damages caused by a party’s breach of Section 4 or its violation of applicable laws are not limited by this Section 8.1.
​
8.2Governing Law/Venue. The construction, validity, performance and effect of this Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of Connecticut, without regard to provisions relating to conflicts of laws. Any controversy, dispute or claim arising out of, related to or in connection with this Agreement shall be submitted for resolution to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the District of Connecticut sitting in New Haven County, or if that court is unable to exercise jurisdiction for any reason, the Connecticut State Courts sitting in New Haven County. Each party hereby consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the District of Connecticut and the Connecticut state courts sitting in New Haven County. Accordingly, with respect to any such court action, each party: (A) submits to the personal jurisdiction of these courts; (B) waives any other requirement (whether imposed by statute, rule of court, or otherwise) with respect to personal jurisdiction or service of process; and (C) waives any objection to jurisdiction based on improper venue, improper jurisdiction, inconvenient forum, violation of public policy or any other basis. Each party expressly acknowledge that any breach or threatened breach of any of the terms and/or conditions set forth in Section 3.2 or 4 of this Agreement will result in substantial, continuing and irreparable injury to the non-breaching party. Therefore, in addition to any other relief to which the non-breaching party may be entitled, each party hereby agrees that the non-breaching party shall be entitled to temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive or other equitable relief in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, without the need to post any bond.
​
8.3Assignment. Except as specifically permitted hereunder, neither this Agreement nor any right or obligation hereunder may be assigned, delegated or otherwise transferred, in whole or part, by a party without the prior express written consent of the other parties. Each party may assign this Agreement in its entirety in connection with the sale of all or substantially all of its assets or business to which this Agreement relates or pursuant to a similar change of control or by operation of law. This Agreement binds the parties’ successors and permitted assigns.
​
8.4Force Majeure. No party shall be deemed to be in breach of this Agreement, or otherwise be liable to any other party, by reason of any delay in performance, or non-performance, of any of its obligations pursuant to this Agreement to the extent that such delay or non-performance is due in whole or in part to any act, event, omission or accident beyond the reasonable control of that party, including, without limitation, any act of God or nature (including flood, earthquake, volcanic activity or other natural disaster), extreme adverse weather conditions, pandemic or epidemic (whether or not declared by a governmental entity), sabotage, fire, explosion, war, riot, act of terrorism and embargo.
​
8.5Severability. If any provision(s) of this Agreement are or become invalid, are ruled illegal by any court of competent jurisdiction or are deemed unenforceable under then current applicable law from time to time in effect during the term hereof, it is the intention of the parties that such provision(s) be deemed to be severed from this Agreement and the remainder of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby.
​
​

​
8.6Status. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be deemed to constitute a partner, agency, employer-employee, or joint venture relationship among the parties. Each party renders services under a Services Work Order as an independent contractor and not as an employee of any other party.
​
8.7Further Assurances. Each party agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver such further instructions, and to do all such other acts, as may be necessary or appropriate in order to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.
​
8.8Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously 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.
​
8.9Entire Agreement. This Agreement and each Technology Work Order and Services Work Order sets forth the entire agreement between and among the parties and supersedes all prior agreements, promises, covenants, arrangements, communications, representations or warranties, whether oral or written, by any party or any of the parties’ agents, with respect to the subject matter hereof. For the avoidance of doubt, the terms of that certain Amended and Restated Technology Services Agreement dated _____, 2019 entered into by and among Butterfly, 4Catalyzer Corporation and certain other Participants does not cover the subject matter of this Agreement and is not affected by this Agreement.
​
8.10Miscellaneous. No provision of this Agreement may be waived, amended, modified or discharged unless the parties agree to the waiver, amendment, modification or discharge in writing. No waiver by either party at any time of any breach by the other party of any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by the other party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time. All descriptive headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall be disregarded in construing or applying any provision of this Agreement. All notices required hereunder shall be in writing and shall be sent by (a) U.S. mail (first class), or (b) nationally recognized courier service (e.g., DHL, Federal Express), with all postage or delivery charges prepaid, and shall be addressed to the parties at their principal place of business and send to the attention of “Legal Department”, or such other address and person as may be furnished by notice in the manner set forth herein.
