to sell these PRODUCTS to other distributors who are not AMERSHAM
Affiliates or AMERSHAM Distributors (EXHIBIT C) and
- 2 -
that any commercial use or development of these PRODUCTS without the
express written authorization of ENZO is strictly prohibited.
2. Relationship between ENZO and AMERSHAM
2.1 Nothing herein creates or constitutes a partnership or an agreement of
agency between the parties with respect to any activities whatsoever. The
relationship between ENZO and AMERSHAM shall be that of seller and buyer,
and neither party shall conclude any contract or agreement or make any
commitment, representation or warranty which binds the other party or

of said COMPONENTS, COMPONENTS 1 and PRODUCTS by AMERSHAM, AMERSHAM
Affiliates and AMERSHAM Distributors.
2.4 ENZO and AMERSHAM agree that the distribution relationship between them
does not constitute, nor does it imply a license of any of ENZO's
technology or patents, nor does it abrogate any of ENZO's rights under
its patents. ENZO maintains full rights under its PATENTS. The foregoing
statements are paramount to this AGREEMENT.
3. PRODUCTS, Price and Payment
3.1 PRODUCTS covered by this Agreement are listed in EXHIBIT B attached
hereto. The price to AMERSHAM for each product shall be as listed in
- 3 -
EXHIBIT B. Prices are based upon the purchase by AMERSHAM of at least
* kits per calendar year as follows. If this volume purchased by
AMERSHAM falls below * kits, the discount to AMERSHAM will be
lowered to *% of the selling price; if the volume purchased by AMERSHAM
falls below * kits, the discount to AMERSHAM will be lowered to *%
of the selling price.
Prices to AMERSHAM may be adjusted no more than once during a calendar
year. ENZO has the right to negotiate to adjust prices to AMERSHAM after
providing AMERSHAM with forty-five (45) days written notice. Any price
adjustment will affect future purchases, but will not affect those
already under existing firm purchase order commitment. AMERSHAM shall be
free to set all resale prices to its customers.
3.2 ENZO or AMERSHAM may propose in writing to add, to modify or to delete a
PRODUCT or PRODUCTS in EXHIBIT B. Both ENZO and AMERSHAM must agree to

4.2 Net, thirty (30) days from the end of the month in which the COMPONENTs
are delivered to ENZO.
4.3 AMERSHAM agrees to permit its books and records to be examined by ENZO on
reasonable prior notice, as necessary, but not more often than once per
year to verify receipts. Such examination is to be made by ENZO, at
ENZO's expense, except in the event that the results of the audit reveal
a discrepancy benefiting ENZO by five percent (5%) then the audit fees
shall be paid by AMERSHAM.
5. PRODUCT Shipments
5.1 ALL PRODUCTS shipped by ENZO to AMERSHAM will be shipped F.O.B.
Farmingdale, NY. ENZO shall ensure PRODUCTS are suitably, safely and
securely packaged and labeled before dispatch.
5.2 ALL COMPONENTS shipped by AMERSHAM to ENZO will be shipped F.O.B. Cardiff

6. Forecasts and Purchase Orders
6.1 AMERSHAM shall issue a forecast schedule during the mid-month of each
calendar quarter covering its estimated requirements for PRODUCTS for the
succeeding two (2) calendar quarters. Such forecast shall be considered
for planning purposes only and do not represent a purchase commitment.
6.2 A purchase order will be issued by AMERSHAM at least sixty (60) days in
advance of the requested delivery date of PRODUCT. This purchase order
will indicate specific delivery and/or shipping requirements. Purchase
orders will be delivered to ENZO by Federal Express or similar carrier so
that the receipt can be confirmed. ENZO shall meet such requirements
unless it advises AMERSHAM within fifteen (15) business days of the date
of the receipt of such purchase order that it is unable to supply PRODUCT
as ordered by AMERSHAM whereupon the parties agree to discuss a revised
schedule for delivery of PRODUCT to AMERSHAM. After ENZO and AMERSHAM
have agreed to the provisions of a revised schedule, ENZO will make its
best efforts to fulfill the provisions of the revised schedule, but if
unable to do so
- 5 -
or if agreement on a revised schedule cannot be reached, ENZO by good
faith effort will designate AMERSHAM as an interim or temporary
manufacturer for such PRODUCT for ENZO until such time as ENZO gives
AMERSHAM written notice that ENZO is ready to recommence supply.
6.3 ENZO shall place orders for COMPONENTS within fourteen (14) days
following receipt of AMERSHAM's purchase order for PRODUCTS. COMPONENTS
shall comply with the written specification therefor supplied by AMERSHAM
with COMPONENTS. ALL OTHER WARRANTIES EXPRESS OR IMPLIED INCLUDING
WITHOUT LIMITATION WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE ARE HEREBY EXCLUDED.
6.4 Each purchase order shall be governed by the relevant provisions of this
AGREEMENT (unless otherwise expressly provided in the individual purchase
order and confirmed in writing by ENZO) and no term or condition which
may appear in the printed matter in AMERSHAM's order form or any form
from ENZO shall be binding on either party or apply to any transaction
under this AGREEMENT.
7. PRODUCT Deliveries and Specifications
7.1 Within about forty five (45) days after the effective date of this
AGREEMENT, ENZO and AMERSHAM shall agree on PRODUCT specifications and
package inserts for the PRODUCTS which shall otherwise be in the form set
out in EXHIBIT B. Quality Control (QC) specifications for the PRODUCTS in
EXHIBIT B, to be agreed upon by ENZO and AMERSHAM, are also listed in
EXHIBIT B.
7.2 When an order is placed by AMERSHAM, ENZO shall ship the PRODUCT in
accordance with section 5 above. Failure by AMERSHAM to notify ENZO of
rejection of the PRODUCT within thirty (30) days of receipt of PRODUCT
will constitute acceptance. ENZO shall supply, at the time of shipment of
the PRODUCT to AMERSHAM, a statement that the PRODUCT conforms to the
PRODUCT specifications. If after receipt of the PRODUCT, AMERSHAM
determines that it does not conform to the PRODUCT specifications
provided by ENZO, and that the failure to conform to the PRODUCT
specifications was not the result of shipping and handling or quality of
COMPONENTS delivered by AMERSHAM, AMERSHAM will provide ENZO with
- 6 -
documentation of this failure to conform to the PRODUCT specifications.
If ENZO accepts the documentation provided by AMERSHAM, ENZO will replace
the order. If ENZO does not accept the documentation provided by
AMERSHAM, then the differences in the determination of the manufacturing
specifications will be settled by representatives of the technical staffs
of ENZO and AMERSHAM.
7.3 If AMERSHAM receives a notice from a third party asserting that any of
the PRODUCTS infringe on an issued patent in the country in which they
are sold, then AMERSHAM shall immediately give notice to ENZO. Upon
notice to ENZO or AMERSHAM from a third party asserting that any of the
PRODUCTS of this AGREEMENT infringe on an issued patent in the country in
which such PRODUCTS are sold, ENZO has the right to exclude such PRODUCTS
from this AGREEMENT for that country and can further instruct AMERSHAM to
cease all such distribution of such PRODUCT in that country. Further
distribution of PRODUCTS after such instruction from ENZO to AMERSHAM
will be at the sole risk of AMERSHAM and AMERSHAM shall indemnify and
hold harmless ENZO from all infringement liability and damages with
respect to such PRODUCTS, including legal costs, compensatory and
punitive damages, and attorneys fees.
7.3.1 ENZO will use its best efforts to obtain a license under commercially
reasonable terms from any such third party asserting patents as described
in Paragraph 7.3. In this event ENZO has the right to adjust prices to
AMERSHAM to reflect the licensing cost and ENZO and AMERSHAM will
negotiate in good faith to arrive at the amended price.
7.3.2 In the absence of instructions from ENZO to cease sales, ENZO will
indemnify AMERSHAM against claims or proceedings for infringements.
7.3.3 Notwithstanding any third party infringement claims, all provisions of
this AGREEMENT, including Section 7, shall not be affected but shall
remain in full force and effect.
8. Sales Promotions
8.1 AMERSHAM shall use its best efforts in sales promotions and advertisement
of the PRODUCTS such as direct mailings, direct customer contact, catalog
listings and trade meeting promotions. ENZO will provide AMERSHAM with
one copy of the literature, technical data, specifications and the like
describing the PRODUCTS as they are currently produced for the assistance
of AMERSHAM in the preparation of advertising, catalog and other sales
and promotional material. AMERSHAM will list PRODUCTS in its next
available
- 7 -
or published product catalog(s) in which the PRODUCTS can be listed and
continued such listing after the effective date of this AGREEMENT.
AMERSHAM will modify the listings of PRODUCTS in its product catalog(s)
as soon as reasonably possible after any corresponding modification of
the list of such PRODUCTS in EXHIBIT B.
9. PRODUCT Warranty
9.1 ENZO warrants that the PRODUCTS sold by ENZO to AMERSHAM shall meet the
specifications accompanying the PRODUCT delivery. ENZO's sole obligation
is to replace the PRODUCTS or give credit therefor to the extent of the
purchase price. THIS WARRANTY IS EXPRESSLY IN LIEU OF ANY OTHER
WARRANTIES OR LIABILITIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE WARRANTIES
OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
9.2 ENZO further warrants that all relevant quality control tests and quality
assurance procedures will be performed for each batch of PRODUCTS so that
each batch of PRODUCT conforms with the Product Specifications as listed
in EXHIBIT B, that the PRODUCTS will be contained, packaged and labeled
as specified by the Product Specifications for such PRODUCTS and that the
PRODUCTS will comply with product safety regulations as indicated in
EXHIBIT G.
10. Storage and Stock Rotation
10.1 ENZO agrees to share with AMERSHAM all necessary storage and stock
rotation practices which apply to the PRODUCTS.
10.2 AMERSHAM further agrees to take diligent care not to ship PRODUCTS to its
