FORM OF SITE VISIT CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT

CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT

(Plant/Facility Visit)

This AGREEMENT, made and effective May 1^st, 2003 by and between EXACT Sciences Corporation, with a place of business at ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ (“RECIPIENT”) and Becton, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Company, a New Jersey corporation, with a place of business at ▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ (“BD”).

WHEREAS, RECIPIENT wishes to visit BD’s facilities located in Bedford, Massachusetts and Treyburn, North Carolina, to discuss BD’s proprietary information and documentation limited to BD’s General Quality System Information. The parties recognize that during the visit and in discussions between the parties in connection with or related to the visit (which conversations may be before, during or after the visit), there may be disclosure by BD of certain confidential, proprietary, trade secret or like previously undisclosed information (“CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION”).

In consideration of the premises and mutual covenants contained herein, BD and RECIPIENT agree as follows:

1. All CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION disclosed by BD (including but not limited to in-writing or other permanent visual form or orally or by visual observation) shall be deemed and shall remain the property of BD, and the RECIPIENT shall not be allowed to make any copies, drawings, sketches, designs, take photographs or videos of the facilities, equipment or processes of BD or its affiliates and other type of tangible way of reproducing information furnished by BD, nor use any other audiovisual recording equipment in any way while in BD’s facilities or its affiliates.

2. Unless expressly authorized by BD in writing, which refers by name and date to this Agreement, RECIPIENT shall retain all CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION in confidence, shall not disclose such CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION or any part thereof to any third-party and shall not use the CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION for its benefit or for the benefit of any third-party except generally for background purposes with respect to examples of good manufacturing procedures. However, the obligation of confidentiality with respect to the CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION shall not apply to any information which:

(a) is already known to RECIPIENT and its value appreciated at the time of disclosure as evidenced by written documents; or

(b) is generally available to the public without restriction or becomes publicly known through no wrongful act of RECIPIENT; or

3. Specific CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION disclosed by BD will not be deemed within any exceptions set forth in (a), (b) or (c) above merely because it is embraced by more general information to which one or more of those exceptions may apply.

Even though CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION is within one of the above exceptions, RECIPIENT will not disclose to third parties that the excepted CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION was received from BD.

4. Nothing contained herein shall be construed, either expressly or implicitly, to grant to RECIPIENT any rights to technology or license under any patent, copyright or trademark or other proprietary right now or hereinafter in existence, owned or controlled by BD.

5. In the event the parties make a later contract or agreement concerning anything covered by this Agreement, this Agreement shall continue to remain in full force and effect unless specifically stated to the contrary in such later contract.

6. RECIPIENT agrees that nothing herein shall obligate BD to disclose information by virtue of this Agreement, and that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed or otherwise interpreted by RECIPIENT as an obligation or intent to enter into any business relationship with each other, and no decisions should be made in reliance on entry into such a relationship. However, RECIPIENT recognizes that from time to time BD may wish to disclose information, which is of a character considered to be so highly proprietary and sensitive that additional restrictions on use and/or disclosure are necessary before such information can be disclosed. In such event, if mutually desired, the parties will attempt to negotiate a separate agreement governing the disclosure of such information.

7. This Agreement constitutes the complete understanding between the parties of each party’s obligations to the other party relating to the CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. This Agreement can be modified only by a written document executed by an authorized representative of the parties, which refers to this Agreement and includes a copy of this Agreement as an attachment.

8. The parties understand and agree that there is neither an expressed nor implied expectation of any kind or type of payment or other compensation by BD to RECIPIENT arising out of this Agreement or anything carried out under this Agreement, except as may be set forth in any subsequent written agreement between the parties. Further, there is no obligation or commitment by the parties hereto to enter into any agreement subsequent to this Agreement.

9. BD personnel are not authorized to receive information in confidence. RECIPIENT shall not disclose any of its trade secrets or proprietary information to BD, and all communications from RECIPIENT to BD shall be made on a non-confidential basis.

10. This Agreement shall become effective on the date first set above and has no termination date. The obligations undertaken herein as the RECIPIENT shall survive and continue with no expiration date.

11. Any notice or other communication made or given by either party in connection with this Agreement shall be sent via facsimile (with confirmation) or by registered certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or by courier service addressed or the other party at its address set forth below:

12. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of New Jersey, without reference to choice or conflict of law principles, otherwise applicable. The parties consent and agree that the United States Federal District Court for the District of New Jersey shall have sole and exclusive jurisdiction to resolve any interpretation, construction, breach, dispute or other controversy arising out of, connected with or associated with this Agreement.

This Agreement shall be executed in two or more identical counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall be deemed to constitute the Agreement when a duly authorized representative of each party has signed a counterpart. The parties intend to sign and deliver this Agreement by facsimile transmission. Each party agrees that the delivery of the Agreement by facsimile shall have the same force and effect as delivery of original signatures and that each party may use such facsimile signatures as evidence of the execution and delivery of the Agreement by all parties to the same extent that an original signature could be used.

Each person executing this Agreement further represents and warrants that they are authorized to enter into such Agreements for and on behalf of their respective Party.
