Each party shall have the right, at its own expense, upon fourteen (14) business days' written notice to the other party and during normal business hours (and, in any event, not more than once in any twelve month period), to inspect and audit the records of the other party for the purpose of verifying any reports, information, payments or credits due to the other under this Agreement. Any such audit may be conducted by a firm of independent certified public accountants mutually chosen by Kodak and Supplier. In the event of any shortfall in payment or credit is found which exceeds five percent (5%) of the total due for the reporting period audited, the other party shall be reimbursed for the reasonable fees of the accountants conducting the audit. Any overpayment or underpayment exceeding five percent (5%), or credit shall be made good between the parties within 14 days of the audit report.

Such modifications shall include both modifications made by Supplier pursuant to Section 6.1 and Article 14 (Warranty). During the term of this Agreement Supplier may develop new programs and related documentation that would provide new functional capability for the Supplier Software. Should such new software and documentation be made available generally to other similarly situated Supplier customers, Supplier shall offer to license such software and documentation to Kodak on terms and conditions no less favorable than those terms and conditions, when considered in the aggregate, offered to any other of Supplier's similarly situated customers. A similarly situated customer shall mean a customer of Supplier ordering similar products at similar volumes under similar terms and conditions as provided for herein.


6.3. New Supplier Software


Supplier will give Kodak the right of first notice for new Computer Aided Detection ("CAD") applications developed solely by Supplier during the period of exclusivity provided for in Section 11.6 and Article 12 for Developed Software. Supplier agrees not to secure partnerships and/or license agreements until sixty (60) days after the first day of notice by Supplier to Kodak with respect to a particular CAD application. During those sixty (60) days Supplier and Kodak will use their best efforts to discuss/negotiate the rights to such CAD application. If Kodak elects to not participate in a particular CAD application, or in the event the parties cannot reach agreement within the sixty (60) day period on mutually agreeable terms for Kodak to, Supplier shall be free to exploit such CAD application, either by itself or with any third party.


Kodak will have equal access, as those given to similarly situated third parties, to negotiate non-exclusive rights to all CAD applications and upgrades that R2 has provided exclusively to other customers. Where it is commercially feasible, in R2's reasonable determination, the time period for Kodak access will not exceed 18 months after FDA (or other regulatory agencies) approval of the application for each such CAD application. Where it is commercially feasible, in R2's reasonable determination, Kodak and R2 will be able to begin unique product development and integration efforts prior to and during the period of exclusivity to other customers.
