Recitals


WHEREAS, Segami and Digirad are parties to that certain Software License Agreement, dated June 16, 1999, as amended November 15, 2001 (as may be amended, restated, replaced or superceded, the “Agreement”, pursuant to which Segami has licensed to Digirad and supported certain software for use and distribution in connection with Digirad products; and

WHEREAS, the parties hereby wish to amend the Agreement and its Exhibits in certain respects as set forth below.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree to the following amended terms and conditions as follows:

Agreement


1.    Exhibits A and D to the Agreement shall be replaced in their entirety by Exhibit A-1, and Exhibit D-l, respectively, attached hereto.   Exhibit B-1, and Exhibit C-l are additions to the terms of the Agreement.


2.    Anything to the contrary in the Agreement notwithstanding, effective as stated herein, Digirad, and not Segami, will be responsible for developing and employing software required (a) for the acquisition of the images (effective as of April 1, 2005); and (b) to perform iterative SPECT reconstruction (effective as of the Effective Date).  The definitions of “Base Software” and “Interface Development” stated in section 1 of the Agreement are amended to exclude any functional reference to the acquisition of images or iterative SPECT reconstruction.   As a result, effective April 1, 2005, except for “bug fixes” (i.e., corrections of malfunctions in Segami’s original software), (a) Segami shall not support the original acquisition software it had developed for Digirad; (b) Digirad shall assume complete responsibility for acquisition and iterative SPECT reconstruction; and (c) neither the Base Software nor the Interface Development, as revised, shall support or interface with previous versions.  Changes required in Segami’s software to allow Digirad’s own acquisition software to interface with Segami’s software are described in Exhibit B-1 attached hereto.  To determine whether the source of any overall software malfunction resides in the acquisition or iterative SPECT reconstruction

software, on the one hand, or the Base Software or Interface Development, on the other hand, Digirad’ s acquisition software shall be tested against Segami’s software version v5.310, copies of which shall be maintained by both Digirad and Segami; and Digirad’s iterative SPECT reconstruction software shall be tested against Segami’s software v5.308b, copies of which shall also be maintained by both Digirad and Segami.  If the malfunction does not occur in such a test, the malfunction is presumptively determined to be caused by the Base Software and/of Interface Development.


3.    The Base Software shall be available for license in (a) SPECT- enabled configurations and (b) non-SPECT -enabled configurations, restricted to upgrades of licenses sold to Digirad customers prior to January 1, 2005.


4.    Section 1 of the Agreement is amended to add the following definition:  “End-Users.”  Customers of Digirad, who have acquired Products directly from Digirad or from Digirad authorized distributors for their own use (and not for unauthorized redistribution or, remarketing, timesharing, or service bureau use) in accordance with the terms of End-User License Agreements.


5.    The following subsection 2(d) is added to Section 2 of the Agreement:


(d)        Web Vue License and Fee.  Effective as of January 1, 2005, and subject to all the terms of this Agreement, Segami grants to Digirad a nonexclusive, worldwide license to sublicense to an unlimited number of End-Users (including Digirad Imaging Solution physician customers) in connection with the sale and use of the Products unlimited access to Web Vue, a program that enables remote viewing of data processed by Mirage software (and its successor programs) via a web browser.  The Web Vue License shall be free to Digirad until December 31, 2005.  Thereafter, the annual License Fee to Digirad for the Web Vue License shall be $  ***   per year, payable no later than ten (l0) days after the beginning of any calendar year in advance.


6.    The second sentence of section 3.2 of the Agreement is deleted and replaced by the following:


Digirad shall pay such additional minimum License Fees to Segami stated in Exhibit A-1 as follows.  Upon sublicense to End-Users, Digirad shall place a written order for the acquisition of new licenses from Segami.  At the time of order, Digirad shall pay a deposit of $ ***  per licensed unit ordered.  The balance of any License Fee for each licensed unit ordered shall be paid within ninety (90) days of the order placed with Segami.  Notwithstanding the foregoing provision, all orders for upgrades or revised versions

EXHIBIT B-1
(Addendum to Exhibit B to the Agreement)


SPECIFICATIONS


I.    Mirage Acquisition Button

The processing button that is labeled “Acquisition” in Mirage (and/or its successor program) shall be configurable so that it will call the Digirad acquisition instead of Digirat_A.exe.

II.    Number of Heads and Orbit Range

Digirad will label its Interfile headers with the key “originating system” being set to “Digirad” instead of “Mirage”.  This will tell Segami’s software that this is a Digirad file and that Segami’ s software should allow the import of studies that are labeled with rotations other than 180° or 360°.

Segami will make modifications so that the key “number of detector heads” can have a value of 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 instead of just 1 or 2.

Segami will also account for the “H3_COR_X” and “H3_COR_Y” fields in its processing stream and properly COR correct studies based upon these fields.

III.    Requirements for Mirage patient database interface

Introduction

Digirad acquisition applications and Segami’s processing applications share the same patient database (Mirage Patient Database).

Patient database management (creation, maintenance) is done from the processing application.

Digirad acquisition application accesses the patient database by calling API functions (the interface) implemented by Segami.
