    identifiable information or protected health information is provided to or accessible by FYR.

    guaranteed to produce any particular result. In the event that any Result obtained by FYR is
    “inconclusive” or “invalid” or a Customer Sample is otherwise delivered to FYR in a non-
    testable condition, FYR will not be obligated to test and/or retest such Customer Sample without
    further authorization from Customer and agreement to pay any necessary additional fees.

    excise, charge or other tax assessment and any penalties and interest associated therewith,
    assessed or charged on the sale of the Services will be paid by Customer.

  • c.        Late Fees and Collection. Any amount not paid when due will accrue interest
    until paid at the rate of 1.5% per month or the maximum amount allowed by law, whichever is
    less. Customer will be responsible for any reasonable costs of collection (including collection
    agency fees and attorneys’ fees) incurred by FYR. If invoices for Services are not timely paid,
    subsequent Services may be canceled, delayed or subject to prepayment until overdue amounts
    are paid.

  • d.        Third Party Reimbursement. Neither Party will be entitled to bill any third party
    reimbursement programs for the Services. As used herein, the term “third-party reimbursement
    programs” will include, but not necessarily be limited to, health maintenance organizations,
    private health insurance companies, Medicare and Medicaid programs and other third-party
    payors.

  • e.        Fair Market Value. The Parties acknowledge that the compensation set forth in
    this Agreement is consistent with fair market value in arms-length transactions and is not based
    upon the volume or value of referrals or business between the Parties. The Parties will, in good
    faith, periodically review the amount of the payments to ensure they remain at fair market value.

  • f.        No Inducement to Refer. It is not the purpose of this Agreement to induce patient
    referrals. The Parties acknowledge that there is no requirement or understanding under this

    or penalty, upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the other Party.

  • c.        Effect of Termination. Upon the termination of this Agreement for any reason or
    for no reason, neither Party will have further rights against, or obligations to, the other Party

    except with respect to any rights or obligations accruing prior to the date and time of termination
    and any obligations, promises or agreements that expressly extend beyond the termination or
    which by their nature extend beyond the termination.

5.Confidentiality.

Each Party will maintain the confidentiality of any information
provided to it by the other Party that is identified as confidential or can reasonably be regarded as
confidential and will take precautions that are at least as protective of its own information to
prevent the unauthorized disclosure or use of such confidential information (“Confidential
Information”). Confidential Information does not include: any information or material that is (a)
already known to the recipient Party; (b) publicly known other than by a wrongful act of the
recipient Party; (c) received from a third party lawfully entitled to disclose it; (d) disclosed
pursuant to an enforceable order of a court or administrative agency; and/or (e) is independently
developed by or for the recipient Party. Upon written request, each Party will return all of the
other Party’s Confidential Information. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that a breach or
violation of this Section by it will have an irreparable, material and adverse effect upon the other
Party and that damages arising from any such breach or violation may be difficult to ascertain.
Without limiting any other remedy at law or in equity available to such Party, in the event of any
breach of any covenant contained in this Agreement by a Party, the other Party will have the
right to seek an immediate injunction enjoining the Party from breaching or violating of such
covenant or covenants, without the need to post any security or bond. The confidentiality
obligations set forth in this Section 5 will survive for a period of one (1) year after expiration or
termination of this Agreement.

6.Ownership.

As between the Parties, Customer will be the exclusive owner of Customer
Confidential Information, Customer Samples and Results, and FYR will be the exclusive owner
of FYR IP and any improvement, modifications or derivative works thereof, even if developed
during the performance of the Services. Customer hereby grants to FYR a worldwide, non-
exclusive, royalty-free, transferable, sublicensable, perpetual and irrevocable license to use the
Results for any purpose, including providing the Services, improving existing services and
products and developing new products and services; provided, however, that FYR’s use of the
Results in no way identifies Customer. Nothing in the Agreement will be construed as
conferring to Customer explicitly or by implication, estoppel or otherwise any license, right or
immunity under FYR’s intellectual property rights, including FYR IP.

OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, SUCCESSORS OR ASSIGNS BE
