AMENDMENT ONE TO OEM PURCHASE AGREEMENT

     This Amendment (the “Amendment”) is made as of August 10, 2004, by and between Cardiac
Science, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Supplier” or “Cardiac Science” or “CSI”), a medical
device developer and manufacturer of automated external defibrillators having its principal place
of business at 1900 Main Street, Irvine, CA 92614 and GE Medical Systems Information
Technologies, Inc., a Wisconsin corporation (“GEMS-IT”), having its principal place of business
at 8200 W. Tower Avenue, Milwaukee, WI 53223. CSI and GEMS-IT may each be referred to herein as a
“Party” and collectively, the “Parties”.

W I T N E S S E T H:

     WHEREAS, CSI and GEMS-IT are parties to an OEM Purchase Agreement dated July 29, 2003 (the
“OEM Purchase Agreement”).

     WHEREAS, CSI and GEMS-IT desire to supplement and amend the OEM Purchase Agreement as set
forth herein.

     NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration,
the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, it is agreed as follows:

     1. Construction. Except as provided in this Amendment, the terms and conditions set
forth in the OEM Purchase Agreement shall remain unaffected by execution of this Amendment. To the
extent any provisions or terms set forth in this Amendment conflict with the terms set forth in the
OEM Purchase Agreement, the terms set forth in this Amendment shall govern and control. Terms not
otherwise defined herein, shall have the meanings set forth in the OEM Purchase Agreement. This
Amendment amends the OEM Purchase Agreement and not the OEM Purchase and Supply Agreement entered
into by the Parties on July 29, 2003.

     2. Section 1.3 of the OEM Purchase Agreement is amended to change the date set forth in such
section from September 30, 2004 to June 30, 2005.

 

 

     3. Section 3.4 (i) of the OEM Purchase Agreement is deleted in its entirety and replaced with
the following: (i) Supplier delivers the first units of OEM Products by June 30, 2005 and the OEM
Products are fully approved for sale throughout Europe by such date.

     4. The last three (3) sentences of Section 14.3 are deleted in their entirety and replaced
with the following:

     “Supplier shall be responsible for obtaining Regulatory Approval in the United
States. In Canada and Japan, GEMS-IT will utilize its in-country resources to
interface with the appropriate regulatory body and GEMS-IT will be responsible for
the filings necessary to obtain regulatory approval. Supplier shall be responsible
for providing all necessary objective evidence and other documentation to GEMS-IT to
support these filings. Failure to receive Regulatory approval in Canada and Japan
shall have no effect on the minimum purchase obligations.”

     5. Section 14.5 of the OEM Purchase Agreement is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the
following:

	 	14.5	 	Duty to Report Incidents. GEMS-IT and Supplier shall
inform each other in writing, within 5 business days from knowledge of a
reportable event, of all incidents relating to the subject matter of the
Agreement that must be reported according to the FDA Medical Device Reporting
regulation (21 CFR Part 803) or the European Medical Device Vigilance
regulations or that must be registered according to other national regulations
such as Canadian medical device regulations, including without limitation
incidents involving death or serious injury, malfunctions that, if recurrent,
may cause or contribute to death or serious injury or other material quality
problems or concerns. Supplier will be responsible for reporting such
incidents to the appropriate regulatory authority. GEMS-IT shall fully
cooperate with Supplier as may be necessary to comply with any reporting
obligations regarding such incidents or quality concerns.

     6. Section 14.6 of the OEM Purchase Agreement is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the
following:

	 	14.6	 	Recalls and Field Corrections. In the event of any recall,
product withdrawal or field correction of any OEM Product that is required
by a governmental agency, by Supplier, or by GEMS-IT for safety or efficacy reasons,

2

 

	 	 	 	the parties agree that (a) they shall promptly notify each other and (b) they shall
fully cooperate with each other concerning the necessity and nature of such action.
GEMS-IT shall be the point of contact for purchasers of any OEM Product (whether
directly or through its distributors). Supplier shall be responsible for making any
and all applicable regulatory authority contacts and for coordination of any recall
or field correction activities involving OEM Products. In the event that any OEM
Product requires field correction or is recalled as a result of (a) the supply by
Supplier of a Noncomplying Product or (b) the grossly negligent or intentionally
wrongful act or omission of Supplier or its affiliates or their representatives,
then Supplier shall bear all costs and expenses, including but not limited to the
costs and expenses related to such recall or field correction, communications and
meetings with all required regulatory agencies, replacement stock, service labor,
installation, travel, notifying customers of such recall and any replacement product
to be delivered to those same customers, including shipping costs. To the extent
that any such recall or field correction is due in part to the negligent or
intentional acts or omissions of GEMS-IT, or the non-performance of the GEMS-IT
Products, GEMS-IT shall be responsible for such costs and expenses equitably in
proportion to its fault.

     7. Exhibit A of the OEM Purchase Agreement is amended to provide for the addition of the OEM
Product known as the “Cardiac Science Powerheart 2000” (hereafter, the “PH2K” and referred to in
the OEM Purchase Agreement as the “Cardioserv’’). The specifications for the PH2K are attached
hereto as Exhibit A. The PH2K is a manual defibrillator being developed and manufactured by CSI,
exclusively for sale by CSI to GEMS-IT. GEMS-IT shall market and sell

3

 

the PH2K to its customers in the United States and Canada as either the “GE Responder 2000” or
under the CSI brand name “Cardiac Science Powerheart 2000” (or such other CSI brand name as
determined by CSI), in the discretion of GEMS-IT. GEMS-IT has no minimum purchase commitments with
respect to the PH2K. CSI shall provide sales training and support to the GEMS-IT Sub-Acute team and
shall also provide product specialists who shall be available, as necessary, to assist the GEMS-IT
representatives in selling these OEM Products.

(a) CSI will not market, distribute, promote, manufacture or sell the PH2K directly
or indirectly to any third party, via its dealer network or otherwise. CSI is
prohibited from manufacturing for any third party, or selling the PH2K, or any
upgrades, adaptions, modifications, improvements and substitutes thereof to any
third party.

(b) CSI further grants GEMS-IT the exclusive right to purchase any future device,
upgrade, adaptation, modification, add-on, substitute, or improvement
manufactured by CSI utilizing the PH2K platform (i.e., such as a more feature-rich
defibrillator; for example, a device built with the PH2K platform with an additional
feature such as Non-Invasive Blood Pressure, End-Tidal
CO2, 12-lead ECG, etc.,). Any
software patches or updates developed for PH2K by Supplier, shall also be
incorporated free of charge into any R2K product produced afterwards, and shall be
made available by Supplier at no charge to customers having purchased either device.

(c) CSI grants to GEMS-IT the exclusive right to sell PH2K on a worldwide basis.

4

 

     8. The last sentence in Section 1.1 of the OEM Purchase Agreement is amended to provide that
CSI has issued to GEMS-IT that certain warrant dated the Effective Date to purchase 750,000 shares
of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of CSI.

     9. CSI Roles and Responsibilities. To further define the role of CSI, and to more
explicitly set forth CSI’s responsibilities and obligations with respect to the OEM Purchase
Agreement, the Parties agree that CSI shall be responsible for:

     (a) Designing and manufacturing the OEM Products.

     (b) All European Medical Device Vigilance reporting and requirements.
Notwithstanding CSI’s reporting obligations, in the event a customer reports to a
governmental authority in Europe, GEMS-IT may respond with its own report.

     (c) Providing a copy of its design hazard analysis on the OEM Products to GEMS-IT with
five (5) days of its production. The design hazard analysis will be used to perform health
risk analysis.

     (d) Performing all complaint investigations on the OEM Products and providing the
results of such investigations to the GEMS-IT “Complaint Leader” via e-mail within fourteen
(14) days of the conclusion of the investigation. The “Complaint Leader” will be the GEMS-IT
employee who is responsible for the coordination and processing of complaint activities on
the OEM Products. The results of any investigation will include any correction, corrective
or preventive action, verification, and validation performed and/or recommended. The
investigative results shall include information obtained in connection with any
investigation performed at both the Copenhagen (Service repair) and Minnetonka facilities.

5

 

     (e) Ensuring that a CSI representative participates in all requested or required risk
assessments. The CSI representative may be a member of CSI’s Service, Engineering, Quality
Assurance or Regulatory Affair departments.

     (f) Notifying GEMS-IT (in writing) of any recall as soon as possible and in no event
later than twenty-four (24) hours after a recall decision has been made by CSI or is
required by a governmental agency.

     (g) Notifying GEMS-IT (in a written report) of any corrective action to be taken in
connection with the OEM Products no later than fourteen (14) days after CSI determines that
such corrective action will be taken.

     (h) Returning a Product to GEMS-IT or its distributor upon conclusion of the complaint
investigation, if appropriate.

     (i) Providing its service work order number and a copy of the actual work order
(including the results of CSI’s investigation) to GEMS-IT. The results of the CSI
investigation shall include root cause analysis and any corrective or preventive action
initiated.

     (j) Compiling weekly complaint data (with each complaint coded for trending) and
providing such trend data to GEMS-IT upon written request from GEMS-IT.

     10. GEMS-IT Roles and Responsibilities. To further define the role of GEMS-IT, and to more explicitly set forth
GEMS-IT’s responsibilities and obligations with respect to the OEM Purchase Agreement, the Parties agree that GEMS-IT shall be responsible for:

     (a) Recording complaints received on the OEM Products pursuant to the GEMS-IT Quality
Procedure — Global Product Complaint Handling and providing a copy of the Complaint to CSI
within five (5) business days of its receipt.

6

 

     (b) Scheduling a Risk Assessment when required per GEMS-IT Risk
Management Guidelines.

     (c) Providing CSI with any adverse event and malfunction report via the MedWatch 3500A
form.

     (d) Returning a “repaired” OEM Product to GEMS-IT or its distributors, regardless of
whether GEMS-IT or CSI repaired said Product.

     (e) Notifying its customers of any recall, corrective action initiated by CSI per the
GEMS-IT Global Customer Notification Procedure.

     (f) Sending GEMS-IT or its distributors a replacement OEM Product, even if CSI is

     11.
Governing Law. The validity, construction,performance and enforcebility of this
Amendment shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of New Jersey, without
reference to the choice-of-law provisions thereof.

     12. Counterparts; Facsimile. This Amendment may be executed simultaneously in
multiple counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which taken together
shall constitute one and the same instrument. Execution and delivery of this Amendment by exchange
of facsimile copies bearing the facsimile signature of a party hereto shall constitute a valid and
binding execution and delivery of this Amendment by such party. Such facsimile copies shall
constitute enforceable original documents.

     13. Severability. In the event any provision of this Amendment shall be determined to be
invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, all other provisions of this Amendment shall
continue in full force and effect unless such invalidity or unenforceability causes substantial
deviation from the underlying intent of the parties expressed in this Amendment or unless the

7

 

invalid or unenforceable provisions comprise an integral part of, or in inseparable from, the
remainder of this Amendment. If this Amendment continues in full force and effect as provided
above, the parties shall replace the invalid provision with a valid provision which corresponds as
far as possible to the spirit and purpose of the invalid provision.

     14. Interpretation. This Amendment has been negotiated at arm’s length and between
persons sophisticated and knowledgeable in the matters dealt with in this Amendment. Each party has
been represented by experienced and knowledgeable legal counsel. Accordingly, any rule of law or
legal decision that would require interpretation of any ambiguities in this Amendment against the
party that has drafted it is not applicable and is waived. The provisions of this Amendment
shall be interpreted in a reasonable manner to effect the purposes of the parties and this
Amendment.

     15. Entire Agreement. The terms of this Amendment are intended by the parties to be the
final expression of their agreement with respect to the subject matter hereof and may not be
contradicted by evidence of any prior or contemporaneous agreement. The parties further intend
that this Amendment constitute the complete and exclusive statement of its terms and shall
supersede any prior agreement with respect to the subject matter hereof.

     16. Headings. The article and section headings contained in this Amendment are for
reference purposes only and will not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this
Amendment.

EXHIBIT 10.44

SECOND AMENDMENT TO OEM PURCHASE AGREEMENT

     This Second Amendment (the “Amendment”) is made as of February 14, 2005, by and
between Cardiac Science, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Supplier” or “Cardiac Science” or “CSI”),
a medical device developer and manufacturer of automated external defibrillators having its
principal place of business at 1900 Main Street, Irvine, CA 92614 and GE Medical Systems
Information Technologies, Inc., a Wisconsin corporation (“GEMS-IT”), having its principal place
of business at 8200 W. Tower Avenue, Milwaukee, WI 53223. CSI and GEMS-IT may each be referred to
herein as a “Party” and collectively, the “Parties”.

WITNESSETH:

     WHEREAS, CSI and GEMS-IT are parties to an OEM Purchase Agreement dated July 29, 2003 and
Amendment One to OEM Purchase Agreement dated August 10, 2004 (collectively, the “OEM Purchase
Agreement”).

     WHEREAS, CSI and GEMS-IT desire to supplement and amend the OEM Purchase Agreement as set
forth herein.

     NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration,
the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, it is agreed as follows:

     1. Construction. Except as provided in this Amendment, the terms and conditions set
forth in the OEM Purchase Agreement shall remain unaffected by execution of this Amendment. To the
extent any provisions or terms set forth in this Amendment conflict with the terms set forth in the
OEM Purchase Agreement, the terms set forth in this Amendment shall govern and control. Terms not
otherwise defined herein, shall have the meanings set forth in the OEM Purchase Agreement. This
Amendment amends the OEM Purchase Agreement and not the OEM Purchase and Supply Agreement entered
into by the Parties on July 29, 2003.

 

 

     2. CSI Roles and Responsibilities. To further define the
role of CSI, and to more explicitly set forth CSI’s responsibilities and obligations with
respect to the OEM Purchase Agreement and the OEM Products, the Parties agree that CSI shall be
responsible for tracking all OEM Products (as defined in Exhibit A to the OEM Purchase and Supply
Agreement) sold by GEMS-IT in the United States, in accordance with 21 C.F.R. 821. As
the manufacturer of the OEM Products, CSI is solely responsible for establishing records that
accurately match end users with each of the OEM Products. CSI is also responsible for
establishing such records and maintaining them for accessories that are trackable per 21 C.F.R. 821.
CSI shall keep these records current and up-to-date over the life of each OEM Product,
according to FDA rules and regulations. Additionally, CSI will implement audits of the tracking
system per 21 C.F.R. 821 and make records of the audit finds available to GEMS-IT upon request. CSI
releases GEMS-IT, and agrees to indemnify, defend and hold GEMS-IT harmless, from any
obligation to maintain such records of its own, and from any damages resulting from failure to
comply with statutory or regulatory requirements with respect thereto. In the event the FDA
requests records in connection with an audit or if there is a recall of an OEM Product and such
records are requested, CSI will rely on its internal processes and compliance procedures to respond
appropriately and according to its obligations, as set forth herein and in the OEM Purchase
Agreement. GEMS-IT will share all customer contact information with CSI for the purpose of: (a) direct
order fulfillment by CSI from its manufacturing facility, and (b) device tracking.

     3. Governing Law. The validity, construction, performance and
enforceability of this Amendment shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State
of New Jersey, without reference to the choice-of-law provisions thereof.

2

 

     4. Counterparts;
Facsimile. This Amendment may be
executed simultaneously in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but
all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Execution and delivery
of this Amendment by exchange of facsimile copies bearing the facsimile signature of a party
hereto shall constitute a valid and binding execution and delivery of this Amendment by such
party. Such facsimile copies shall constitute enforceable original documents.

     5. Severability. In the event any provision of this Amendment
shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, all other provisions
of this Amendment shall continue in full force and effect unless such invalidity or
unenforceability causes substantial deviation from the underlying intent of the parties expressed in this
Amendment or unless the invalid or unenforceable provisions comprise an integral part of, or in
inseparable from, the remainder of this Amendment. If this Amendment continues in full
force and effect as provided above, the parties shall replace the invalid provision with a valid
provision which corresponds as far as possible to the spirit and purpose of the invalid provision.

     6. Interpretation. This Amendment has been negotiated at arm’s
length and between persons sophisticated and knowledgeable in the matters dealt with in
this Amendment. Each party has been represented by experienced and knowledgeable legal counsel.
Accordingly, any rule of law or legal decision that would require interpretation of any
ambiguities in this Amendment against the party that has drafted it is not applicable and is waived.
The provisions of this Amendment shall be interpreted in a reasonable manner to effect the
purposes of the parties and this Amendment.

     7. Entire
Agreement. The terms of this Amendment are intended
by the parties to be the final expression of their agreement with respect to the subject
matter hereof and may not be

3

 

contradicted by evidence of any prior or contemporaneous agreement. The
parties further intend that this Amendment constitute the complete and
exclusive statement of its terms and shall supersede any prior agreement
with respect to the subject matter hereof.

     8. Headings. The article and section headings contained in this
Amendment are for reference purposes only and will not affect in any way the
meaning or interpretation of this Amendment.

          IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Agreement to be signed
by their thereunto duly authorized representatives as of the date first
above written.
