technology available to MASIMO. Thereafter, this license shall be nonexclusive.
Such license shall include the right to sell such devices on an OEM basis
(excluding companies in glucose monitoring business) to no more than two OEM
companies at any one time. At the initiation of the exclusive license, MASIMO
agrees to pay LABS five million dollars ($5,000,000) in monthly payments over a
period of two years as a license fee. Such license will require MASIMO to pay to
LABS royalties in the amount of ten percent (10%) of the Net Selling Price of
products incorporating the LABS Technology for use in blood glucose measurement
and total hemoglobin applications and ten percent (10%) of the Net Selling Price
of sensors and accessories incorporating the LABS Technology for use in blood
glucose and total hemoglobin measurement applications. The Parties understand
that the exclusivity in this license to MASIMO will in no way preclude LABS from
conducting testing and studies in hospitals relating to blood glucose and total
hemoglobin measurement. Upon exercise of the option, the provisions of Section
2.3, except 2.3.2 and 2.3.3, shall apply in reverse with respect to the LABS
trademarks and any LABS product designation, as required by LABS,
4.5 Payment on Change in Control. Upon any change in control of Masimo
(defined as a change in ownership of more than 50% of masimo's assets or stock),
the option of Sections 4.3 and 4.4 is automatically exercised, unless objected
to by LABS. Upon such change in control, MASIMO agrees to pay LABS the five
million dollars ($5,000,000) license fee of Section 4.4 immediately.
4.6 Minimum Royalties. In addition to the license fee, MASIMO agrees to the
