9.2 Effect of Termination.

(a) Each party’s right of termination under Section 9.1, is in addition to any other rights it may have under this Agreement or otherwise, and the exercise of such right of termination will not be an election of remedies. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9.1, all obligations of the parties under this Agreement will terminate, except that the obligations of the parties in this Section 9.2 and ARTICLE 12 and ARTICLE 13 will survive, provided, however, that, if this Agreement is terminated because of a breach of this Agreement by the non-terminating party or because one or more of the conditions to the terminating party’s obligations under this Agreement is not satisfied as a result of the party’s failure to comply with its obligations under this Agreement, the terminating party’s right to pursue all legal remedies will survive such termination unimpaired.

(b) If (x) this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9.1(g) or (y) this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Sections 9.1(b), 9.1(d) or 9.1(f) on account of the failure to satisfy Section 7.3 due to (1) the revocation, termination, rescission or modification of the Shareholder Consents with the consent of any shareholder or beneficial owner of shares of Sellers’ capital stock or (2) any other act of Sellers that is intended to prevent the satisfaction of Section 7.3, then:

(i) Buyer would incur expenses and may suffer direct and substantial damages, which damages cannot be determined with reasonable certainty and, in order to compensate Buyer for such damages, Sellers shall pay Buyer Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) as liquidated damages (the “Termination Fee”) by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Buyer. The Termination Fee will be payable within five (5) business days after such termination. Buyer shall be entitled to recover any costs and expenses incurred in order to collect such Termination Fee or enforce the covenants set forth in this subsection, with interest on the Termination Fee at two percentage points over the then current prime rate of Bank of America until paid in full; and

(ii) Buyer shall have the right to elect, within sixty (60) days following the termination of this Agreement, to resolve all claims in the Pending Litigation that are between Buyer and Sellers as they exist on the date hereof in the Pending Litigation, in arbitration proceedings. Should Buyer make such election, the following procedures would apply: The arbitration would be before Buyer’s choice of one of the following: (1) Mr. Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx at his first available time or (2) any one of two arbitrators on the AAA panel in San Francisco or Los Angeles who has federal judicial experience and who are to be designated by Sellers, such arbitration to be conducted in Hawaii, if conducted before Xx. Xxxxxx, or at such other location as is required by any other arbitrator selected by the Parties. If the selected arbitrator is not available and the Parties are unable to agree on an arbitrator within thirty (30) days, after it is determined that the selected arbitrator is not available, or a mutually agreed extension thereof, the arbitrator will be selected by the AAA. If Buyer elects to arbitrate the Disputed Claims, then the Parties shall dismiss certain claims against each other pursuant to the Settlement Document in the form of Exhibit T. The arbitration shall be binding on the Parties with no right of appeal, and shall occur as soon as reasonably possible after termination of the Agreement. The Parties agree that Judge White’s Claims Construction Order dated May 13, 2005 in Case No. C 02-3220 JSW is binding on such arbitration and shall control for the purposes of the patent issues.

-37-

Unless the Parties agree otherwise, the arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the applicable commercial Arbitration Rules of the AAA then in effect. Each Party shall be responsible for its own attorney’s fees and costs. The fees for arbitration and fees for an arbitrator shall be apportioned 50% to Buyer and 50% to the Sellers. The findings of the arbitrator will be final, binding, and enforceable as between the Parties, and any judgment on any award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The Parties agree to submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of California for purposes of implementing, without limitation, the enforcement of any award obtained through the arbitration proceedings. Subject to payment of a damage award, if any, that may be awarded by the arbitrator, Buyer will receive at the time of the arbitration award a non-exclusive, worldwide license to the intellectual property which is the subject of the Pending Litigation which license shall have a term for the life of the applicable patents and be for a field of use, which shall be the dental channel, the material terms of which are attached hereto as Exhibit U. For purposes of the arbitration, should the arbitrator award any damages to Sellers, the Parties agree that such award may be paid by Buyer as follows: (1) 25% of such damages shall be payable within 60 days following the decision of the arbitrator and (2) the remaining 75% of such damages shall be payable in 16 equal monthly increments on the last business day of each month beginning on the third month following the decision of the arbitrator. In order to avoid biasing the arbitrator regarding whether any award should be made, this provision regarding payment terms shall not be communicated to the arbitrator until after the award of the arbitrator is issued and final; and nothing herein shall prevent the arbitrator from awarding payment terms more favorable to Buyer than those set forth in this paragraph.

(b) If an Indemnified Person gives notice to the Indemnifying Person pursuant to Section 11.5(a) of the assertion of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Person shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Third-Party Claim and, to the extent that it wishes (unless (i) the Indemnifying Person is also a Person against whom the Third-Party Claim is made and the Indemnified Person determines in good faith that joint representation would be inappropriate or (ii) the Indemnifying Person fails to provide reasonable assurance to the Indemnified Person of its financial capacity to defend such Third-Party Claim and provide indemnification with respect to such Third-Party Claim), to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim with counsel satisfactory to the Indemnified Person. After notice from the Indemnifying Person to the Indemnified Person of its election to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Person shall not, so long as it diligently conducts such defense, be liable to the Indemnified Person under this ARTICLE 11 for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defense of such Third-Party Claim, in each case subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Person in connection with the defense of such Third-Party Claim, other than reasonable costs of investigation.

-44-

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Indemnified Person determines in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that a Third-Party Claim may adversely affect it other than as a result of monetary damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Person may, by notice to the Indemnifying Person, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise or settle such Third-Party Claim, but the Indemnifying Person will not be bound by any determination of any Third-Party Claim so defended for the purposes of this Agreement or any compromise or settlement effected without its consent.

(d) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 13.4, Sellers hereby consents to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any court in which a Proceeding in respect of a Third-Party Claim is brought against any Buyer Indemnified Person for purposes of any claim that a Buyer Indemnified Person may have under this Agreement with respect to such Proceeding or the matters alleged therein and agree that process may be served on Sellers with respect to such a claim anywhere in the world.

(e) With respect to any Third-Party Claim subject to indemnification under this ARTICLE 11: (i) both the Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Person, as the case may be, shall keep the other Person fully informed of the status of such Third-Party Claim and any related Proceedings at all stages thereof where such Person is not represented by its own counsel and (ii) the parties agree (each at its own expense) to render to each other such assistance as they may reasonably require of each other and to cooperate in good faith with each other in order to ensure the proper and adequate defense of any Third-Party Claim.

(f) With respect to any Third-Party Claim subject to indemnification under this ARTICLE 11, the parties agree to cooperate in such a manner as to preserve in full (to the extent possible) the confidentiality of all Confidential Information and the attorney-client and work-product privileges. In connection therewith, each party agrees that: (i) it will use commercially reasonable efforts, in respect of any Third-Party Claim in which it has assumed or participated in the defense, to avoid production of Confidential Information (consistent with applicable law and rules of procedure) and (ii) all communications between any party hereto and counsel responsible for or participating in the defense of any Third-Party Claim shall, to the extent possible, be made so as to preserve any applicable attorney-client or work-product privilege.

11.6 Other Claims. A claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a Third-Party Claim may be asserted by notice to the party from whom indemnification is sought and shall be paid promptly after such notice.

11.7 Escrow for Sellers Obligations.

(a) Simultaneous with the Closing, Buyer, for the benefit of Sellers, will deposit with an escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”) an amount equal to $3,500,000 in immediately available funds (as increased by any earnings thereon and as reduced by any disbursements, amounts withdrawn under ARTICLE 11, or losses on investments, the “Escrow Fund”).

-45-

(b) From time to time on or before the expiration of the Survival Period, Buyer may give notice (a “Notice”) to Sellers and Escrow Agent specifying in good faith in reasonable detail the nature and dollar amount of any claim (a “Claim”) it may have under ARTICLE 11; Buyer may make more than one claim with respect to any underlying state of facts. If Sellers give notice to Buyer and Escrow Agent disputing any Claim (a “Counter Notice”) within 30 days following receipt by Escrow Agent of the Notice regarding such Claim, such Claim shall be resolved as provided in Section 11.7(c). If no Counter Notice is received by Escrow Agent within such 30-day period, then the dollar amount of Damages claimed by Buyer as set forth in its Notice shall be deemed established for purposes of this Agreement and, at the end of such 30-day period, Escrow Agent shall pay to Buyer the dollar amount claimed in the Notice from (and only to the extent of) the Escrow Fund.

(c) If a Counter Notice is given with respect to a claim, Escrow Agent shall make payment with respect thereto only in accordance with (i) joint written instructions of Buyer and Sellers or (ii) a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(d) Within five (5) business days after the expiration of the representations and warranties, Escrow Agent shall pay and distribute the then amount of Escrow Fund to Sellers, unless any Claims are then pending, in which case an amount equal to the aggregate dollar amount of such Claims (as estimated in the Notices of such Claims) shall be retained by Escrow Agent in the Escrow Fund (and the balance paid to Sellers) until it receives joint written instructions of Buyer and Sellers or a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction as contemplated by Section 11.7(c).

11.8 Insurance Proceeds. To the extent that any Damage is covered by insurance held by Sellers for the benefit of Buyer, Buyer shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE 11 only with respect to the amount of Damages that are in excess of the proceeds actually received by Buyer pursuant to such insurance. If Buyer receives such insurance proceeds prior to the time a claim hereunder is paid, then the amount payable by the Sellers pursuant to such claim shall be reduced by the amount of such insurance proceeds. If Buyer receives such insurance proceeds after such claim is paid, then upon receipt by Buyer of any cash proceeds pursuant to such insurance up to the amount of the Damages incurred by Buyer with respect to such claim, Buyer shall repay to Sellers any portion of such amount which was previously paid to Buyer in satisfaction of such claim. In addition, any Damages incurred by any Indemnified Person under this ARTICLE 11 will be reduced by and shall be exclusive of any amounts recovered by the Indemnified Person pursuant to any indemnification by, or indemnification agreement with, any third party. Indemnified Party shall have no obligation to file any insurance claim or seek recovery from any third party.

11.9 No Limitations. The representations, warranties, covenants and obligations of Sellers, and the rights and remedies that may be exercised by Buyer, shall not be limited or otherwise affected by or as a result of any information furnished to, or any investigation made by or knowledge of, any of Buyers or any of their Representatives.

ARTICLE 12

CONFIDENTIALITY

12.1 Definition of Confidential Information.

(a) As used in this ARTICLE 12, the term “Confidential Information” includes any and all of the following information of Sellers or Buyer that has been or may hereafter be disclosed in any form, whether in writing, orally, electronically or otherwise, or otherwise made available by observation, inspection or otherwise by either party (Buyer on the one hand or Sellers on the other hand) or its Representatives (collectively, a “Disclosing Party”) to the other party or its Representatives (collectively, a “Receiving Party”):

(i) all information that is a trade secret under applicable trade secret or other law;

(ii) all information concerning product specifications, data, know-how, formulae, compositions, processes, designs, sketches, photographs, graphs, drawings, samples, inventions and ideas, past, current and planned research and development, current and planned manufacturing or distribution methods and processes, customer lists, current and anticipated customer requirements, price lists, market studies, business plans, computer hardware and computer software and database technologies, systems, structures and architectures;

(iii) all information concerning the business and affairs of the Disclosing Party (which includes historical and current financial statements, financial projections and budgets, tax returns and accountants’ materials, historical, current and projected sales, capital spending budgets and plans, business plans, strategic plans, marketing and advertising plans, publications, client and customer lists and files, contracts, the names and backgrounds of key personnel and personnel training techniques and materials, however documented) and all information obtained from review of the Disclosing Party’s documents or property or discussions with the Disclosing Party regardless of the form of the communication; and

(iv) all notes, analyses, compilations, studies, summaries and other material prepared by the Receiving Party to the extent containing or based, in whole or in part, upon any information included in the foregoing.

(b) Any trade secrets of a Disclosing Party shall also be entitled to all of the protections and benefits under applicable trade secret law and any other applicable law. If any information that a Disclosing Party deems to be a trade secret is found by a court of competent jurisdiction not to be a trade secret for purposes of this ARTICLE 12, such information shall still be considered Confidential Information of that Disclosing Party for purposes of this ARTICLE 12 to the extent included within the definition. In the case of trade secrets, each of Buyer and Sellers hereby waives any requirement that the other parties submits proof of the economic value of any trade secret or post a bond or other security.

-47-

12.2 Restricted Use of Confidential Information.

(a) Each Receiving Party acknowledges the confidential and proprietary nature of the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party and agrees that such Confidential Information (i) shall be kept confidential by the Receiving Party, (ii) shall not be used for any reason or purpose other than to evaluate and consummate the Contemplated Transactions and (iii) without limiting the foregoing, shall not be disclosed by the Receiving Party to any Person, except in each case as otherwise expressly permitted by the terms of this Agreement or with the prior written consent of an authorized representative of Sellers with respect to Confidential Information of Sellers (each, a “Seller Contact”) or an authorized representative of Buyer with respect to Confidential Information of Buyer (each, a “Buyer Contact”). Each of Buyer and Sellers shall disclose the Confidential Information of the other party only to its Representatives who require such material for the purpose of evaluating the Contemplated Transactions and are informed by Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, of the obligations of this ARTICLE 12 with respect to such information. Each of Buyer and Sellers shall (1) enforce the terms of this ARTICLE 12 as to its respective Representatives, (2) take such action to the extent necessary to cause its Representatives to comply with the terms and conditions of this ARTICLE 12 and (3) be responsible and liable for any breach of the provisions of this ARTICLE 12 by it or its Representatives.

(b) Unless and until this Agreement is terminated, Sellers shall maintain as confidential any Confidential Information of Sellers relating to any of the Acquired Assets or the Assumed Liabilities. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Sellers may use any Confidential Information of Sellers before the Closing in the Ordinary Course of Business in connection with the transactions permitted by Section 5.2.

(c) From and after the Closing, the provisions of Section 12.2(a) above shall not apply to or restrict in any manner Buyer’s use of any Confidential Information of Sellers relating to any of the Acquired Assets or the Assumed Liabilities.

12.3 Exceptions. Sections 12.2(a) and 12.2(b) do not apply to that part of the Confidential Information of a Disclosing Party that a Receiving Party demonstrates (a) was, is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a breach of this ARTICLE 12 by the Receiving Party or its Representatives, (b) was or is developed by the Receiving Party independently of and without reference to any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party, or (c) was, is or becomes available to the Receiving Party on a nonconfidential basis from a third party not bound by a confidentiality agreement or any legal, fiduciary or other obligation restricting disclosure. Sellers shall not disclose any Confidential Information of Sellers relating to any of the Acquired Assets or the Assumed Liabilities in reliance on the exceptions in clauses (b) or (c) above.

12.4 Legal Proceedings. If a Receiving Party becomes compelled in any Proceeding or is requested by a Governmental Body having regulatory jurisdiction over the Contemplated Transactions to make any disclosure that is prohibited or otherwise constrained by this ARTICLE 12, that Receiving Party shall provide the Disclosing Party with prompt notice of such compulsion or request so that it may seek an appropriate protective order or other appropriate remedy or waive compliance with the provisions of this ARTICLE 12. In the absence of a protective order or other remedy, the Receiving Party may disclose that portion (and only that portion) of the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party that, based upon advice of the Receiving Party’s counsel, the Receiving Party is legally compelled to disclose or that has been requested by such Governmental Body, provided, however, that the Receiving Party shall use reasonable efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded by any Person to whom any Confidential Information is so disclosed. The provisions of this Section 12.4 do not apply to any Proceedings between the parties to this Agreement.

-48-

12.5 Return or Destruction of Confidential Information. If this Agreement is terminated, each Receiving Party shall (a) destroy all Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party prepared or generated by the Receiving Party without retaining a copy of any such material, (b) promptly deliver to the Disclosing Party all other Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party, together with all copies thereof, in the possession, custody or control of the Receiving Party or, alternatively, with the written consent of a Seller Contact or a Buyer Contact (whichever represents the Disclosing Party) destroy all such Confidential Information and (c) certify all such destruction in writing to the Disclosing Party, provided, however, that the Receiving Party may retain a list that contains general descriptions of the information it has returned or destroyed to facilitate the resolution of any controversies after the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information is returned.
