Using calendar year 2010 as an example, the combined amount of the Running Royalty payments made under Article 5.1.(c) below on July 31, 2009 and January 31, 2010 would be creditable against the Annual Maintenance Fee due on January 31, 2010. For the avoidance of doubt, Running Royalties paid in a given calendar year in excess of the corresponding Annual Maintenance Fee for that year shall not be creditable against the Annual Maintenance Fee in any other calendar year.

For example, payment of Running Royalties will be due by the last day of January on Net Sales occurring during the last half (July through December) of the immediately preceding calendar year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, LICENSEE shall owe no Running Royalties on any Sale that does not take place during the Term of this Agreement. For purposes of determining whether a Sale takes place during the Term of this Agreement, a Sale shall be deemed to occur upon the earlier of the shipment of a Licensed Product or the performance of a service using Licensed Technology or invoicing.

(d) Service Applications: Notwithstanding the foregoing, LICENSEE shall pay to UTRF Running Royalties equal to ______*________ of any Net Sales generated from the performance of medical waste processing services that utilize Licensed Technology. With respect to the potential performance of other service applications that utilize the Licensed Technology, LICENSEE and UTRF shall negotiate in good faith a Running Royalties rate that shall not exceed ___*____ nor be less than ____*____, depending upon the business aspects of the specific service application.

(e) Sublicense Royalties: In addition to all other amounts payable hereunder, LICENSEE shall pay to UTRF the following percentages of Sublicense Revenue according to the cumulative amount of Sublicense Revenue received by LICENSEE during the Term of this Agreement. ("Sublicense Royalties") Payment of Sublicense Royalties shall be made on a semi-annual basis by the last day of January and July each year on Sublicense Revenue generated during the immediately preceding calendar half-year. For example, payment of Sublicense Royalties will be due by the last day of July on Sublicense Revenue occurring during the first half (January through June) of the same calendar year.

For example, if LICENSEE received Sublicense Revenue in the amount of ____*____ during the period January through June of a particular year, and as of June 30 of the same year the cumulative Sublicense Revenue received by LICENSEE during the Term of this Agreement is ____*____, LICENSEE would be required to pay, on or before July 31 of the same year, Sublicensee Royalties in the amount of ____*____ plus Sublicense Royalties in the amount of ____*____.

(b) LICENSEE shall pay the net amount of Running Royalties due after reduction by the amount of such taxes that are actually owed and paid;

LICENSEE shall also pay all reasonable collection costs at any time incurred by UTRF in obtaining payment of amounts past due, including reasonable attorneys fees. The payment of such interest shall not foreclose UTRF from exercising any other rights it may have as a consequence of the lateness of any payment. In no event shall this interest provision be construed as a grant of permission for any payment delays.

5.5 Payment Shortage: If an examination of records provided under Article 6 of this Agreement reveals a payment shortage of greater than 5% of the total amount due under any one royalty payment, LICENSEE shall promptly reimburse UTRF for the reasonable cost of examination, the shortage in payment, and the interest accrued on the shortage under Article 5.8 of this Agreement. Each event of payment shortage of greater than 5% shall be considered a failure to make a payment under Articles 14.

5.6 Manner of Payments: All payments shall be paid in United States dollars in Knoxville, Tennessee, or at such other place as UTRF may reasonably designate consistent with the laws and regulations controlling in the United States or any foreign country. If any currency conversion shall be required in connection with the payment of royalties hereunder, such conversion shall be made by using the exchange rate listed in the Wall Street Journal for major New York banks on the last business day of the calendar quarter to which such royalty payments relate. If the transfer of moneys owed to UTRF or the conversion into United States Dollar equivalents in any such instance is not lawful or possible, the payment of such part of the royalties as is necessary shall be made by the deposit thereof, in the currency of the country where the sales were made on which the royalty was based, to the credit and account of UTRF or its nominee in any commercial bank or trust company of its choice located in that country, prompt notice of which shall be given by LICENSEE to UTRF.

5.7 Event of Default: LICENSEE's failure to make any payment at the time, in the manner, and in the amount that is required by Article 5 of this Agreement, shall constitute an event of default and UTRF shall have the option to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the terms and provisions of Article 14 of this Agreement.

5.8 Effect of Receipt or Acceptance: Receipt or acceptance by UTRF of any payment or report under this Agreement shall not prevent UTRF from subsequently challenging the validity or accuracy of such payment or report.

If such default is not corrected within the said thirty (30) day period, UTRF shall have the right, at its option, to terminate this Agreement. The failure of UTRF to exercise such right of termination for non-payment of royalties or otherwise shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any right UTRF might have, nor shall such failure preclude UTRF from exercising or enforcing said right upon any subsequent breach or default by LICENSEE.

14.5 Multiple Failures by LICENSEE to Make Payment: UTRF may also terminate this Agreement upon the occurrence of the third separate failure by LICENSEE within any consecutive three-year period for failure to make any payment under this Agreement when due, regardless of LICENSEE's compliance with Article 14.3 above.
