Fiscal years 2009 and 2008 are eachcomprised of 52 weeks. For ease of presentation purposes, we refer to June 30 as the Company's fiscal year end. On June 23, 2009, our board ofdirectors determined to change the Company's fiscal year end to June 30, beginning with fiscal 2010.Item 1. BUSINESS The Company We, Accuray Incorporated, have developed what we believe to be the first and only commercially available intelligent robotic radiosurgery system,CyberKnife® Robotic Radiosurgery System, designed to treat solid tumors anywhere in the body as an alternative to traditional surgery. OurCyberKnife system represents the next generation of radiosurgery systems, combining continuous image-guidance technology with a compact linearaccelerator, or linac, which has the ability to move in three dimensions according to the treatment plan. Our image-guidance technology enables thesystem to continuously acquire images to track a tumor's location and transmit any position corrections to the robotic arm prior to delivery of each doseof radiation. Our linac is a compact radiation treatment device that uses microwaves to accelerate electrons to create high-energy X-ray beams to destroythe tumor. This combination, which we refer to as intelligent robotics, extends the benefits of radiosurgery to the treatment of tumors anywhere in thebody. The CyberKnife system autonomously tracks, detects and corrects for tumor and patient movement in real-time during the procedure, enablingdelivery of precise, high dose radiation typically with sub-millimeter accuracy. The CyberKnife procedure requires no anesthesia, can be performed onan outpatient basis and allows for the treatment of patients who otherwise would not have been treated with radiation or who may not have been goodcandidates for surgery. In addition, the CyberKnife procedure is designed to avoid many of the potential risks and complications that are associated withother treatment options and is more cost effective than traditional surgery. As of June 30, 2010, 206 CyberKnife systems were installed: 132 in the Americas, three of which are pursuant to our shared ownership program,45 in Asia and 29 in Europe. Our customers have reported that over 95,000 patients worldwide have been treated with the CyberKnife system since its1Table of Contentscommercial introduction. Our customers have increasingly used the CyberKnife system for indications outside of the brain for tumors on or near thespine and in the lung, liver, prostate and pancreas. Based on customer data, over 50% of patients treated with the CyberKnife system in the UnitedStates during the year ended June 30, 2010 were treated for tumors outside of the brain. The CyberKnife system received U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, 510(k) clearance in July 1999 to provide treatment planning andimage-guided robotic radiosurgery for tumors in the head and neck. In August 2001, the CyberKnife system received 510(k) clearance to treat tumorsanywhere in the body where radiation treatment is indicated. The CyberKnife system has also received a CE mark for sale in Europe and has beenapproved for various indications in Japan, Korea, Taiwan, China and other countries. In Europe, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and China, the CyberKnifesystem has received approval to provide treatment planning and image-guided robotic radiosurgery for tumors anywhere in the body where radiationtreatment is indicated. We were incorporated in California in 1990 and commenced operations in 1992. We reincorporated in Delaware in 2007. Our principal offices arelocated at 1310 Chesapeake Terrace, Sunnyvale, CA 94089, and our telephone number is (408) 716-4600.Cancer Market Overview According to the World Health Organization, or WHO, an estimated 7.9 million people died of cancer in 2007, accounting for 13% of all deathsworldwide. Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States, after heart disease. The American Cancer Society, or ACS, estimates thatapproximately 569,000 Americans will die as a result of cancer in 2010. The ACS also estimates that approximately 1.4 million new cases of cancer willbe diagnosed in the United States in 2010, with continued increases in the prevalence of cancer forecasted as the U.S. population ages. Cancers can be broadly divided into two groups: solid tumor cancers, which are characterized by the growth of malignant tumors within the bodyin areas such as the brain, lung, liver, breast or prostate, and hematological, or blood-borne cancers, such as leukemia. The ACS estimates that solidtumor cancers will account for approximately 1.4 million, or approximately 94%, of new cancer cases diagnosed and will account for approximately527,000 cancer related deaths in the United States in 2010. In addition, tumors at the original cancer site, called primary tumors, such as in the breast orprostate, even when diagnosed and treated, can lead to the development of tumors in other locations of the body, called secondary tumors. This isreferred to as metastatic disease, the movement of cancer cells from one part of the body to another. We are focused on the treatment of solid cancertumors.Development of Radiosurgery Traditional methods for the treatment of solid tumor cancers include surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy and other drugs. Surgery andradiation are forms of local therapy, because the tumor is either directly removed through surgery or irradiated with the objective of destroying thecancer cells comprising the tumor. Chemotherapy is a systemic treatment method which involves the administration of drugs with the objective of killingcancer cells anywhere in the body, and when used in conjunction with local therapy, any remaining cancer cells that were not destroyed by the localtherapy. Based on the demonstrated principles of radiation as a method of destroying cancer cells, manufacturers have developed radiosurgery systems thathave initially shown to be effective in the treatment of brain tumors and there have been various attempts to develop similarly accurate systems toperform radiosurgery elsewhere in the body. By destroying the tumor with a high dose of radiation, radiosurgery systems have been shown to beeffective at local control without the risks, costs and other limitations of traditional surgery. Radiosurgery systems differ from traditional radiationtherapy systems in that they are designed to deliver a very high cumulative dose of radiation, in a single or a small number of treatments preciselytargeted at the tumor rather than at a region that consists of the tumor2Table of Contentsplus healthy tissue that surrounds the tumor area. The more accurate delivery of radiation allows higher doses to be delivered, increasing the probabilityof tumor cell death and better local control. In addition, radiosurgery can be used on patients who cannot, due to advanced age or other health reasons,tolerate traditional surgery. One of the initial radiosurgery techniques was frame-based radiosurgery for the treatment of brain tumors, which requires attaching a rigid frame tothe patient's head by screwing it into the skull through the skin to immobilize the patient's head and to aid in targeting the tumor. Besides immobilizingthe patient, the frame forms a fixed coordinate system that is used to target a tumor inside the head. Once the frame is attached, the physician thenimages the head, typically with a computed tomography, or CT scan, to identify the tumor location relative to the frame. The physician then uses theacquired images to develop a treatment plan, and the patient receives treatment while being held in position by the rigid frame. The entire process usuallylasts between four and eight hours. Although frame-based radiosurgery represents an advancement in cancer treatment, it has significant shortcomings. The necessity for a rigid frameto be screwed into a patient's skull or affixed to the body restricts the area of the body which can be treated. In addition, frame-based radiosurgerysystems do not generally succeed in conforming the radiation dose to the tumor, because beam orientations are limited, and therefore it is difficult tomatch the shape of the treated volume with the shape of the tumors. Further, because it is difficult to precisely reposition the head frame for multipletreatments, these systems are very rarely used when more than one dose of radiation is required. Frame-based radiosurgery approaches have been usedfor treatment of tumors in other parts of the body, but suffer from significant drawbacks. In particular, it is not practical to attach a frame rigidly to partsof the body other than the head. Tumors in soft tissue organs such as the lung, liver, pancreas and prostate are not rigidly fixed to any external referencepoints and can move significantly during treatment due to normal bodily functions. Frame-based approaches to delivering radiosurgery for tumors insuch locations are rarely as accurate as frame-based systems used to treat brain tumors. This lack of accuracy for tumors located outside the head maycompromise the efficacy of traditional radiosurgery and increase the likelihood of delivering significant radiation doses to otherwise healthy tissue.The CyberKnife System SolutionOur Strategy Our goal is to have the CyberKnife system become the standard of care for the treatment of solid tumors, particularly those that are difficult to treatwith traditional surgery. We believe our technology can significantly enhance the applications of radiosurgery by increasing the number and type oftumors which can be treated effectively. Key elements of our strategy include the following: Increase physician adoption and patient awareness to drive utilization. We are continually working to increase adoption and awareness of ourCyberKnife system and demonstrate its advantages over traditional treatment methods. We hold and sponsor symposia and educational meetings andsupport clinical studies in an effort to demonstrate the clinical benefits of the CyberKnife system. We assist our customers to increase patient awarenessin their communities by helping them develop marketing and educational campaigns. Continue to expand the radiosurgery market. While radiosurgery has traditionally been used to treat brain tumors, the CyberKnife system hasreceived FDA clearance for and is increasingly being used to treat tumors anywhere in the body where radiation is indicated. Based on customer data,over 50% of patients treated with the CyberKnife system in the United States during the year ended June 30, 2010 were treated for tumors outside of thebrain. We are facilitating studies to further demonstrate the CyberKnife system's efficacy for treating tumors outside of the brain, and we believe thesestudies will increase overall utilization of the CyberKnife system and continue to expand the number of patients3Table of Contentseligible for radiosurgery. In addition, we have developed and are continuing to develop new upgrades to enable the CyberKnife system to be even bettersuited for treating tumors anywhere in the body where radiation is indicated. Continue to innovate through clinical development and collaboration. The clinical success of the CyberKnife system is due in large part to thecollaborative partnerships we have developed over the last decade with clinicians, researchers and patients. We proactively seek out and rely onconstructive feedback from CyberKnife system users to learn what is needed to enhance the technology. Due to this collaborative process, wecontinually refine and upgrade the CyberKnife system, which ultimately improves our competitive position in the radiosurgery market. Our upgrades aredesigned to improve the ease of use and accuracy of treatment, decrease the treatment times, and improve the utilization for specific types of tumors. Forexample, in recent years, we introduced Synchrony, a motion tracking system that is designed to track tumors that move with patient respiration and theXsight Spine Tracking System, a new target tracking technology, which eliminates the need for surgical implantation of small, inert metal markers,known as fiducials, in the treatment of spinal tumors. In the year ended June 30, 2008, we introduced a higher output linear accelerator, the Iris VariableAperture Collimator, Monte Carlo Dose Calculation software, Sequential Optimization treatment planning and a seated RoboCouch, enabling improvedpatient positioning capabilities. In the year ended June 30, 2009, we introduced the InTempo Adaptive Imaging system, MultiPlan MD Suite, andMultiPlan Quick Review. In the year ended June 30, 2010, we introduced the CyberKnife VSI™ System, which includes support for the delivery ofconventional fractioned robotic image guided intensity-modulated radiation therapy, or Robotic IMRT, AutoSegmentation for Prostate, MultiPlanQuickPlan and the Radiosurgery DICOM Interface to the Varian ARIA System. In addition, the CyberKnife VSI system includes a 1000MU/minutelinac, which reduces treatment times making it feasible to deliver radiosurgery treatments in the same time as other machines deliver radiotherapytreatments. Leverage our installed base to generate additional recurring revenue. We have designed the CyberKnife system so that generally customerscan upgrade their previously purchased systems as we introduce new features. We generate additional revenue by selling multiyear service plans thatprovide eligibility to receive upgrades, when and if available. These contracts are typically signed prior to the CyberKnife system installation andgenerate additional revenue throughout the life of the contract. In addition, we sell upgrades to our existing customers who are not covered by serviceplans or who have exhausted the upgrades deliverable pursuant to their service plans. Finally, we offer the shared ownership program, which enablescustomers to reduce the upfront investment required for the CyberKnife system in exchange for sharing a significant portion of revenue with us that isderived from each procedure. Expand sales in international markets. We intend to increase our sales and distribution capabilities outside of the United States to takeadvantage of the large international opportunity for our products. We currently have regional offices in Paris, France, Hong Kong, China and Tokyo,Japan and direct sales staff in most countries in Western Europe, Japan, India and Canada. Combined with distributors in Eastern Europe, Russia, theMiddle East, the Asia Pacific region and Latin America our sales and distribution channels cover more than 80 countries. We intend to increase ourinternational revenue by select additions of direct sales and marketing personnel in targeted areas to further penetrate our most promising internationalmarkets. Pursue acquisitions, strategic partnerships and joint ventures. We intend to actively pursue acquisitions, strategic partnerships and jointventures that we believe may allow us to complement our growth strategy, increase market share in our current markets and expand into adjacentmarkets, broaden our technology and intellectual property and strengthen our relationships with our customers. As an example, we entered into aStrategic Alliance Agreement, or Alliance Agreement with Siemens Aktiengesellschaft, or Siemens, pursuant to which (i) Accuray has granted Siemensdistribution rights to4Table of ContentsAccuray's CyberKnife system when sold along with Siemens systems in multiple product sales, (ii) Accuray and Siemens will create a research anddevelopment relationship, and (iii) Siemens will incorporate certain Accuray technology into its linear accelerator products.The CyberKnife System Our principal product is the CyberKnife system, an intelligent robotic radiosurgery system that enables the treatment of tumors anywhere in thebody where radiation is indicated without the need for invasive surgery or rigid frames. The current United States list price for the CyberKnife systemranges from approximately $3.6 million to $6.2 million, depending upon system configuration and options purchased by the customer. The list pricetypically includes initial training, installation and a one-year warranty. We also offer optional hardware and software, technical enhancements andupgrades to the CyberKnife system, as well as service contracts and training to assist customers in realizing the full benefits of the CyberKnife system. The CyberKnife system combines continuous image-guidance technology with a compact linear accelerator mounted on a computer-controlledmanipulator arm to precisely deliver high doses of radiation to the tumor from numerous directions during treatment. Our patented image-guidancetechnology correlates low dose, real-time treatment X-rays with images previously taken with a CT scan of the tumor and surrounding tissue toprecisely direct each beam of radiation. This enables delivery of a highly conformal, non-isocentric dose of radiation to the tumor, with minimalradiation delivered to surrounding healthy tissue. With its autonomous ability to track, detect and correct for even the slightest tumor and patientmovement throughout the entire treatment, the CyberKnife system gives clinicians an effective, uninterrupted and accurate treatment alternative. Key components and technologies of the CyberKnife system and the CyberKnife VSI system include the following: CyberKnife VSI System. With the ability to offer a full range of treatment options, from radiosurgery to high precision radiation therapy, theversatile CyberKnife VSI system provides the flexibility to optimize treatments for the unique needs of each patient. Using intelligent capabilities to notonly enable expert-level treatments with an intuitive planning process, but also to adapt treatment delivery to the distinct characteristics of each patientwith continual image guidance, the CyberKnife VSI system instills confidence that the plan created is the plan delivered. A comprehensive set of tools tomanage every aspect of patient treatment, ready integration into existing institution infrastructure and a logical workflow make the use of the CyberKnifeVSI system simple and convenient in daily clinical practice. Treatment of inoperable or surgically complex tumors. The CyberKnife system can be used to target tumors that cannot be easily treated withtraditional surgical techniques because of their location, number, size, shape or proximity to vital tissues or organs, or because of the age or health of thepatient. The CyberKnife system's intelligent robotics are designed to enable the delivery of radiation doses that conform closely to the shape of thetumor. This enables the precise targeting of a tumor, while at the same time minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue. Radiosurgery treatmentsperformed with the CyberKnife system can also be staged over two to five treatment sessions. Robotic IMRT treatments performed with the CyberKnifesystem can be delivered in as many as 40 treatment sessions, or fractions. Treatment of tumors throughout the body. The CyberKnife system has been cleared by the FDA to provide treatment planning and image-guided radiosurgery for tumors anywhere in the body where radiation treatment is indicated. Unlike frame-based radiosurgery systems, which aregenerally limited to treating brain tumors, the CyberKnife system is being used for the treatment of primary and5Table of Contentsmetastatic tumors outside the brain, including tumors on or near the spine and in the lung, liver, prostate and pancreas. Real-time tracking of tumor movement. We believe the CyberKnife system is the first device that is designed to enable the treatment of tumorsthat change position due to respiration, tumor or patient movement during treatment. That ability is achieved with a level of accuracy typically associatedwith radiosurgery procedures for brain tumors. Significant patient benefits. Patients may be treated with the CyberKnife system on an outpatient basis without anesthesia and without the risksand complications inherent in traditional surgery. The CyberKnife treatment procedure is well tolerated. Patients do not require substantial pre-treatmentpreparation, and typically there is little to no recovery time or hospital stay associated with the CyberKnife procedure. In addition, the CyberKnifesystem eliminates the need for an invasive rigid frame to be screwed into the patient's skull or affixed to other parts of the body. Facilitates additional revenue generation through increased patient volumes. We believe that clinical use of the CyberKnife system allows ourcustomers to effectively treat patients who otherwise would not have been treated with radiation or who may not have been good candidates for surgery.Therefore, we believe the treatment of these patients generates additional revenue without affecting our customers' traditional radiation therapy practices.In addition, because the CyberKnife treatment is a non-invasive, outpatient procedure requiring little or no recovery time, hospitals can treat morepatients than with traditional surgery. In traditional surgery, the time a patient must be at the facility for the procedure and recovery time tends to bemeasured in days. With the CyberKnife system, the entire procedure is generally completed within 60 minutes, and the patient often leaves the facilityvery shortly after treatment. Even if the patient receives four to five treatments, the total time the patient is at the hospital or treatment center is stillshorter than with traditional surgery. Furthermore, the more time the patient must be at the hospital, the more resources the hospital must dedicate to thepatient. The reduction in overall time and resources required for the CyberKnife procedure, when compared to traditional surgery, leads to an increase inthe volume of procedures performed and potentially lower per procedure costs for the hospital. This makes the CyberKnife system an attractive additionto our customers' cancer treatment practice. Upgradeable modular design. The CyberKnife system has a modular design which facilitates the implementation of upgrades that generally donot require our customers to purchase an entirely new system to gain the benefits of new features. We continue to work to develop and offer newclinical capabilities enhancing ease of use, reducing treatment times, improving accuracy and improving patient access. Key components andtechnologies of the CyberKnife system include the following: Compact X-band linear accelerator (linac). The linac generates the radiation that is used to treat the tumor. We believe we are the onlycommercial manufacturer of a compact X-band linac. This technology allows us to manufacture linacs that are smaller and weigh significantly less thanstandard medical linacs used in traditional gantry-based radiation therapy systems while achieving similar performance. The CyberKnife linac provideshigh energy X-ray beams of different diameters and intensities without the use of radioactive material. In fiscal 2010, we introduced a linac capable ofdelivering 1000 monitor units per minute of energy output, representing the highest output linac we have offered. Robotic manipulator. The robotic manipulator arm, with six-degrees-of-freedom range of movement, is designed to move around the patient toposition the linac and direct the radiation with an extremely high level of precision and repeatability. The manipulator arm provides a unique method ofpositioning the linac to deliver doses of radiation from nearly any direction and position, without the limitations inherent in gantry-based systems,creating a non-isocentric composite dose pattern that can precisely conform to the shape of each treated tumor. This flexibility enhances the ability todiversify6Table of Contentsbeam trajectories and beam entrance and exit points, helping to minimize risks of radiation damage to healthy cells near the tumor. Furthermore, therapid response time of the manipulator arm allows tracking of tumors that move with respiration. Real-time image-guidance system with continuous target tracking and feedback. Without the need for clinician intervention or treatmentinterruption, the CyberKnife system's revolutionary real-time image-guided robotics enables continuous monitoring and correction for patient and tumormovements throughout each treatment as it is being delivered. The CyberKnife system is able to precisely deliver the prescribed radiation dose due to thevirtually instantaneous and continuous feedback loop between X-ray-based target localization and automatic correction of the radiation beam throughoutthe entire treatment. This target tracking and feedback technology uses two digital image detectors to capture low energy X-ray images. The imageguidance software carries out an automated comparison of the X-ray images with the patient's CT scan to detect, track and correct for any movement ofthe tumor or patient before and during the treatment delivery. This allows the CyberKnife system to dynamically target the tumor and adjust the positionof the beam to follow the motion of the tumor throughout the treatment, directing the beam to precisely match tumor movement. X-ray sources. The low-energy X-ray sources generate the X-ray images that help to determine the location of bony or other anatomiclandmarks, or implanted fiducials, which are used for tracking throughout the entire treatment. Image detectors. The image detectors capture high-resolution anatomical images throughout the treatment. These live images are continuallycompared to the patient's CT scan to determine real-time patient positioning. Based on this information, the robotic manipulator automatically correctsfor any detected movement. In addition to the key components listed above, we also offer the following components and features: Synchrony Respiratory Tracking System. The CyberKnife system's proprietary motion tracking system, the Synchrony System, is used to tracktumors that move with respiration. Synchrony software and hardware correlate tumor movement due to respiration with the CyberKnife systemtreatment beam allowing it to continuously track the tumor as it moves throughout the respiratory cycle. Through this process the CyberKnife systemdelivers beams synchronized in real-time to tumor position while adapting to changes in breathing patterns, allowing for the delivery of highlyconformed radiation beams while reducing areas exposed to radiation. The Synchrony System provides an unprecedented clinical accuracy ofapproximately 1.5 millimeters for tumors that move with respiration. Xsight Spine Tracking System. The Xsight Spine Tracking System eliminates the need for surgical implantation of fiducials for the delivery ofradiosurgery treatments on or near the spine. The Xsight Spine Tracking System utilizes skeletal structures to automatically locate and track tumors withsub-millimeter accuracy. We believe no other commercially available technology today offers this capability. Xsight Lung Tracking System. The Xsight Lung Tracking System delivers radiosurgical accuracy to some lung tumors without the need forimplanted fiducials. The Xsight Lung Tracking System directly tracks the anatomy of the tumor. Integrated with the Synchrony Respiratory TrackingSystem, treatment margins are significantly minimized by tracking the motion of the tumor as it moves during respiration. RoboCouch Patient Positioning System. Fully integrated with the CyberKnife system, the RoboCouch intelligently positions the patient to theplanned treatment position with extreme accuracy, providing not only greater set up precision, but significantly streamlining the patient set up process.The RoboCouch offers greater positioning flexibility, a lower patient loading height, and a higher patient weight capacity limit when compared to ourStandard Treatment Couch.7Table of Contents Standard Treatment Couch. The Standard Treatment Couch is used to automatically align the patient for treatment. Xchange Robotic Collimator Changer. The Xchange Robotic Collimator Changer automatically exchanges secondary fixed collimators, withoutclinician involvement, and is required for use with the Iris Variable Aperture collimator. These collimators determine the radiation beam size during thetreatment. Iris Variable Aperture Collimator. The Iris Variable Aperture Collimator enables delivery of beams in 12 unique sizes with a single collimator.This significantly reduces treatment times as well as the total radiation dose delivered to the patient. 4D Treatment Optimization and Planning System. Our 4D Treatment Optimization and Planning System optimizes treatment by taking intoaccount the movement of the tumor as well as the movement and deformation, or change in shape, of the surrounding tissue, thereby minimizingmargins and radiation exposure to healthy tissue. InTempo Adaptive Imaging System. The InTempo System is a time-based target tracking technology used to compensate for intrafractionprostate motion during treatment delivery. With the InTempo System, our users can utilize adaptive imaging to automatically adjust for large movementsin patients during treatment by increasing the X-ray imaging frequency. The user also manages the image age of X-ray images by specifying how longto wait between image acquisitions. MultiPlan Treatment Planning System. The proprietary intuitive planning system is designed for CyberKnife radiosurgery and includes thehardware necessary for treatment planning. The MultiPlan System generates a series of beams and calculates the dose that must be delivered from eachbeam and provides these as a treatment plan. The treatment plan defines the pattern of radiation that meets the physician's dose prescription. TheMultiPlan system uses input images from multiple modalities, including computed tomography, or CT, magnetic resonance imaging, or MRI, positronemission tomography, or PET, and 3D angiography. After the physician outlines a tumor and critical adjacent tissues on the computer, a medicalphysicist (or dosimetrist) uses the MultiPlan system to plan the number, intensity, position and direction of radiation beams. Using unique and patentedsoftware algorithms, the system calculates and displays the resultant treatment plan for evaluation, optimization and approval by the physician. MultiPlan MD Suite. The MultiPlan MD Suite solution allows remote users to perform pre-planning preparation and post-planning review oftreatment plans. MultiPlan MD Suite provides the ability to perform tasks such as contouring, fusion, setting of treatment plan parameters, and reviewof treatment plans. CyberKnife® Data Management System. The CyberKnife® Data Management System provides comprehensive storage and processing of thepatient data that is generated as the patient progresses through the CyberKnife planning and treatment workflow. Pre-planning data, such as planning CTimages, are imported and stored in the data management system. This information is then available for review by the clinician. The results of a patient'streatment delivery, such as dose delivered from each beam, each path and each fraction, as well as details about the images acquired and correctionsapplied are recorded and stored in the data management system. MultiPlan Quick Review. The MultiPlan Quick Review feature allows multiple sessions of the MultiPlan Treatment Planning System to be runsimultaneously. One primary and up to three secondary sessions are available. The primary session has full treatment planning functionality while thesecondary sessions can perform all planning functions except for optimization. MultiPlan Quick Review improves clinical workflow by allowing datafrom multiple patients, or multiple plans from the same patient, to be accessed simultaneously.8Table of Contents Radiosurgery DICOM Interface. In a typical oncology department there are many individual systems that play a role in patient diagnosis andtreatment delivery. Each of these systems separately manages their own specialized piece of information about a patient. Often a centralized informationmanagement system such as an Oncology Information Systems, or OIS, is used to minimize the need for the clinical user to access each of theseseparate systems individually to gather information. Centralization of the patient's oncology treatment record into a single digital record provides clinicalbenefits that can be realized immediately. Data management systems, such as the CyberKnife Data Management System, utilize industry-standardinterface protocols, such as DICOM, to export patient information to the OIS. With the Radiosurgery DICOM Interface, the CyberKnife RoboticRadiosurgery System completes the OIS electronic medical record with a comprehensive export of the radiosurgery treatment history. Note: TheRadiosurgery DICOM Interface requires a compatible version of the OIS. Monte Carlo dose calculation. Our Monte Carlo dose calculation software uses Monte Carlo simulation algorithms in treatment planning anddose calculation. Our Monte Carlo dose calculation algorithm can perform the necessary treatment planning calculations in a significantly shorter timeframe as compared to conventional Monte Carlo dose calculation methods, thereby accelerating the treatment planning process. Sequential Optimization treatment planning. Sequential optimization treatment planning enables CyberKnife system users to define andprioritize treatment planning objectives for each treatment plan. These objectives can include treatment dose to the targeted tumor, dose minimization insurrounding areas and total radiation delivery throughout the treatment. Sequential optimization enables these objectives to be prioritized and tailored tothe unique clinical characteristics of each patient. Robotic IMRT. Robotic IMRT combines the proven technical effectiveness of IMRT delivery with the robotic intelligence of the CyberKnifesystem—superior conformality, steep dose gradient and fully automated treatment delivery with continual image guidance—to deliver high precisionradiation therapy using a conventionally fractionated approach. AutoSegmentation for Prostate. The AutoSegmentation option provides a method for the CyberKnife system to automatically generate accuratecontours of the male pelvic anatomy, including the prostate, rectum, bladder, seminal vesicles and femoral heads. AutoSegmentation leverages a unique,model-based approach to automated contouring. Since these structures can now be defined quickly, accurately and with minimal user input, clinicalworkflow is greatly improved. QuickPlan. Our QuickPlan technology allows for a complete treatment plan to be generated automatically, and the results presented to the userfor review. The entire planning process, including the ability to automatically contour certain anatomical structures, automatically fuse image series andautomatically identify fiducials, as well as the scriptable nature of the Sequential Optimization algorithm are leveraged in the QuickPlan option. Since thetreatment planning process can now be largely automated, CyberKnife staff can now utilize their time and resources in the clinic more effectively. Report Administration Application. The ability to easily access the data stored in the CyberKnife Data Management System is essential to thesmooth management of the CyberKnife department. The Report Administration application makes the ability to review stored patient and usage datasimple and straightforward by providing the easy availability of a variety of departmental reports.Sales and Marketing We currently market the CyberKnife system through a direct sales force in the United States and a combination of direct sales personnel anddistributors in the rest of the world. Support of our9Table of Contentsinternational sales is handled through our European and Asian headquarters in Paris, France; Hong Kong, China and Tokyo, Japan. In the United States we use a combination of regional sales directors, account specialists, product managers, training specialists and field marketingmanagers. Regional sales directors and account specialists are responsible for selling the CyberKnife system, upgrades and services to hospitals andstand-alone treatment facilities. Our product managers help market our current products and work with our engineering group to identify and developupgrades and enhancements for the CyberKnife system. Our training specialists train radiation oncologists, surgeons, physicists and radiation therapists. In addition to marketing to hospitals and stand-alone treatment facilities, we market to radiation oncologists, neurosurgeons, general surgeons,oncology specialists and other referring physicians. We will continue to increase our focus on marketing and education efforts to surgical specialists andoncologists responsible for treating tumors throughout the body. Our marketing activities also include efforts to inform and educate cancer patientsabout the benefits of the CyberKnife system. According to estimates published by the American Society for Therapeutic Radiation Oncology, or ASTRO, there are over 2,000 hospitals andstand-alone treatment facilities in the United States providing radiation therapy services. Our current United States sales and marketing focus is to targetthe hospitals and treatment facilities currently providing radiation therapy services, however, in the future we believe that the CyberKnife system willalso be marketed to hospitals that do not have radiation therapy facilities. From time to time, we may provide our linac system for use in non-medical areas. These areas may include non-destructive testing, visualinspection and other potential applications. We do not currently expect these non-medical uses to represent a significant portion of our revenue in thenear term.Manufacturing and Assembly We purchase major components of the CyberKnife system, including the robotic manipulator, treatment table or robotic couch, magnetron, whichcreates the microwaves for use in the linac, imaging cameras and computers, from outside suppliers. We manufacture certain other electronic andelectrical subsystems, including the linac, at our Sunnyvale, California and Mountain View, California facilities. We then assemble and integrate thesecomponents with our proprietary software for treatment planning and treatment delivery and perform essential testing prior to shipment to customersites. Single source suppliers presently provide us with several components, including the magnetron, the treatment couches, the robot and the imagingplates. In most cases, if a supplier were unable to deliver these components, we believe that we would be able to find other sources for thesecomponents subject to any regulatory qualifications, if required. In the event of a disruption in any of these suppliers' ability to deliver a component, wewould need to secure a replacement supplier. Additionally, any disruption or interruption of the supply of key subsystems could result in increasedcosts and delays in deliveries of CyberKnife systems, which could adversely affect our reputation and results of operations.Intellectual Property The proprietary nature of, and protection for, our products, product components, processes and know-how are important to our business. We seekpatent protection in the United States and internationally for our product systems and other technology where available and when appropriate. Ourpolicy is to patent or in-license the technology, inventions and improvements that we consider important to the development of our business. In addition,we use license agreements to selectively convey rights to our intellectual property to others. We also rely on trade secrets, know-how and continuinginnovation to develop and maintain our competitive position.10Table of Contents We had 15 U.S. patents issued in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010. As of June 30, 2010, we held 55 U.S. patents, 55 pending U.S. patentapplications and are pursuing additional patent applications on additional key inventions to enhance our intellectual property rights. The first of ourpatents will expire in October 2010 and currently the last of our patents will expire in 2026. As of June 30, 2010, we also held 23 foreign patents, 8pending published Patent Cooperation Treaty applications and 66 foreign patent applications which correspond to our issued U.S. patents and pendingU.S. patent applications. We cannot be sure that any patents will be issued from any of our pending patent applications, nor can we assure you that anyof our existing patents or any patents that may be granted to us in the future will be commercially useful in protecting our technology. An additional keycomponent of our intellectual property is our proprietary software used in planning and delivering the CyberKnife system's therapeutic radiation dose. In addition to our patents, we also rely upon trade secrets, know-how, trademarks, copyright protection and continuing technological and licensingopportunities to develop and maintain our competitive position. We require our employees, consultants and outside scientific collaborators to executeconfidentiality and invention assignment agreements upon commencing employment or consulting relationships with us. Patents may provide some degree of protection for preventing others from making, using, selling, or offering for sale a system that shares one ormore features of the CyberKnife. However, patent protection involves complex legal and factual determinations and is therefore uncertain. The lawsgoverning patentability and the scope of patent coverage continue to evolve, particularly in the areas of technology of interest to us. As a result, wecannot assure you that patents will issue from any of our patent applications. The scope of any of our issued patents may not be sufficiently broad tooffer meaningful protection. In addition, our issued patents or patents licensed to us may be successfully challenged, invalidated, circumvented orunenforceable so that our patent rights would not create an effective competitive barrier. Moreover, the laws of some foreign countries may not protectour proprietary rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States. In view of these factors, our intellectual property positions bear somedegree of uncertainty. In April 2007, we entered into a License and Development Agreement with CyberHeart, Inc., or CyberHeart. As part of this agreement, we willlicense certain intellectual property rights and technologies to CyberHeart, which CyberHeart will use to develop and commercialize new systems andapplications in the field of cardiac disease. In the event CyberHeart is able to successfully develop and commercialize such an application, under theagreement, we would be the sole supplier of radiosurgery equipment to CyberHeart and would also be entitled to receive specified payments based onusage of the CyberHeart system. Roderick Young, a former member of our board of directors, is a founder, officer and director of CyberHeart, Inc. In June 2010, we entered into an Agreement with Siemens, pursuant to which (i) Accuray has granted Siemens the right to sell the Company'sCyberKnife system globally as part of its portfolio of healthcare products in multi-product sales, (ii) Accuray and Siemens will create a research anddevelopment relationship, and (iii) Siemens will purchase and incorporate elements of Accuray's technology into its linear accelerator products. TheCompany will retain the sole ownership and rights related to inventions it develops, and Siemens retains the sole ownership and rights related toinventions it develops. The Company and Siemens have joint ownership and rights related to any jointly developed inventions in connection with theAgreement, and each party has the right to use those inventions. Any other jointly developed inventions will be allocated (a) to Accuray if they relate tospecified Accuray technology, (b) to Siemens if they relate to specified Siemens technology, (c) as joint inventions, similar to the previous sentence.Each party will be granted a limited license to inventions allocated to the other party.11Table of ContentsResearch and Development Continued innovation is critical to our future success. Our current product development activities include projects expanding clinical applications inradiosurgery, driving product differentiation, and continually improving the CyberKnife system's capabilities. Some of our product upgrades have beendiscussed above under the heading "The CyberKnife System". Research activities strive to enable new product development opportunities by developing new technologies and advancing areas of existing coretechnology such as next generation linear accelerator, patient imaging, or treatment planning capabilities. The modular design of our products supports rapid development for new clinical capabilities and performance enhancements by generally allowingeach subsystem to evolve within the overall platform design. Access to regular product upgrades protects customer investment in the CyberKnifesystem, facilitates the rapid adoption of new features and capabilities among existing installed base customers, and drives increasing value in ourmultiyear service plans. These upgrades will generally consist of software and hardware enhancements designed to increase the ease of use of ourCyberKnife system and improve the speed and accuracy of treatment. As of June 30, 2010, we had 117 employees in our research and development departments. Research and development expenses for the fiscalyears ended June 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008 were $31.5 million, $36.0 million and $32.9 million, respectively. We plan to increase our investment inresearch and development in future periods, including in connection with our strategic alliance with Siemens.Competition The medical device industry in general, and the non-invasive cancer treatment field in particular, are subject to intense and increasing competitionand rapidly evolving technologies. Because our products often have long development and regulatory approval cycles, we must anticipate changes in themarketplace and the direction of technological innovation and customer demands. To compete successfully, we will need to continue to demonstrate theadvantages of our products and technologies over well-established alternative procedures, products and technologies, and convince physicians and otherhealthcare decision makers of the advantages of our products and technologies. Traditional surgery, minimally invasive procedures, radiation therapy,chemotherapy and other drugs are other means to treat cancer. Also, we compete directly with frame-based radiosurgery systems primarily from ElektaAB (publ), or Elekta, BrainLAB AG, and the Integra Radionics business of Integra Life Sciences Holding Corporation. The market for standard linacs is dominated by three companies: Elekta, Siemens, and Varian Medical Systems, Inc., or Varian. In addition,TomoTherapy Incorporated, or TomoTherapy, markets a radiation therapy product. Some manufacturers of standard linac systems, including Varianand Elekta, have products that can be used in combination with body and/or head frame systems and image-guidance systems to perform radiosurgery.Our newest CyberKnife system, the CyberKnife VSI system, was designed with a focus on radiosurgery, however, it can be also used to performRobotic IMRT which uses low doses of radiation over a long period of time with fractionated treatments to treat cancer cells. Many government,academic and business entities are investing substantial resources in research and development of cancer treatments, including surgical approaches,radiation treatment, drug treatment, gene therapy (which is the treatment of disease by replacing, manipulating, or supplementing nonfunctional genes),and other approaches. Successful developments that result in new approaches for the treatment of cancer could reduce the attractiveness of our productsor render them obsolete.12Table of Contents Our future success will depend in large part on our ability to establish and maintain a competitive position in current and future technologies. Rapidtechnological development may render the CyberKnife system and its technologies obsolete. Many of our competitors have or may have greatercorporate, financial, operational, sales and marketing resources, and more experience in research and development than we have. We cannot assure youthat our competitors will not succeed in developing or marketing technologies or products that are more effective or commercially attractive than ourproducts or that would render our technologies and products obsolete. We may not have the financial resources, technical expertise, marketing,distribution or support capabilities to compete successfully in the future. Our success will depend in large part on our ability to maintain a competitiveposition with our technologies. Our competitive position also depends on:•Widespread awareness, acceptance and adoption of our products by the radiation oncology and cancer therapy markets; •The discovery of new technologies that improve the effectiveness and productivity of the CyberKnife system radiosurgery process; •Availability of coverage and reimbursement from third-party payors, insurance companies and others for procedures performed usingthe CyberKnife system; •Properly identifying customer needs and delivering new upgrades to address those needs; •Published studies supporting the efficacy and safety of the CyberKnife system; •Limiting the time required from proof of feasibility to routine production; •Limiting the timing and cost of regulatory approvals; •The manufacture and delivery of our products in sufficient volumes on time, and accurately predicting and controlling costs associatedwith manufacturing, installation, warranty and maintenance of the products; •Our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; •The extent of our patent protection or our ability to otherwise develop proprietary products and processes; and •Obtaining any necessary United States or foreign regulatory approvals or clearances.Reimbursement The CyberKnife procedure is currently covered and reimbursed by Medicare and other governmental and non-governmental third-party payors.Medicare coverage currently exists in the hospital outpatient setting and in the freestanding clinic setting. For calendar year 2010, the national unadjustedaverage Medicare payment rates under Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System, or HCPCS, are $3,572 under code G0339, the billing code forthe first treatment, and $2,488 under code G0340, the billing code for each of the second through fifth treatments. Payment for the freestanding clinicsetting is governed by the final Medicare Physician Fee Schedule. For 2010, payment for CyberKnife procedures in the freestanding clinic settings forfirst and subsequent treatments is set by local Medicare carriers and rates may vary from low payment to a payment rate exceeding the hospitaloutpatient payment rates. We will continue to evaluate the impact that the health care legislation bill, HR 4872, and the effect the implementation of itsstatutes may have on Medicare reimbursement rates.13Table of Contents In late June and early July of 2010 Medicare published its proposed rules for hospital outpatient services, for physicians, and services performedin the freestanding center setting. After a 60 day comment period Medicare will review and analyze the comments. Once Medicare's analysis is completethe final rules will be published, which we anticipate to occur near the end of October 2010. The proposed rates in the hospital outpatient setting reflect a4.4% decrease for G0339 and a 1.1% increase for G0340. Proposed payment in the freestanding clinic setting for the first and subsequent treatmentscontinues to be set by local Medicare carriers and rates may vary from low payment to a payment rate exceeding the hospital outpatient payment rates. In addition to Medicare reimbursement to hospitals and clinics, physicians receive reimbursement for their professional services in the hospitaloutpatient setting and the freestanding clinic setting. Payment to physicians is based on the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule, and payment amounts areupdated on an annual basis. For 2010, Medicare adjusted reimbursement rates for the Current Procedural Terminology, or CPT, code series describingthe surgeon's role in the delivery of CyberKnife cranial and spinal procedures beginning with 61796 and 63620 to varying degrees. For example, therate for treating five simple cranial lesions was reduced by less than one percent, and the rate for treating one complex cranial lesion was increased bymore than 40%. For 2011, Medicare has proposed adjustments to reimbursement rates for CPT code series describing the surgeon's role in the deliveryof CyberKnife cranial and spinal procedures beginning with 61796 and 63620 to varying degrees. These adjustments vary from a 27% increase to a33% increase. Radiosurgery procedures in other anatomies require other surgeons to bill unlisted CPT codes with no assigned payment rates. Payment rates forunlisted codes are set by the local Medicare carrier and rates may vary from no payment to rates equivalent to the comparable CPT rates for the seriesbeginning with 61796 and 63620. Coding for other physicians (primarily radiation oncologists) involved in the delivery of CyberKnife treatmentincreased by one percent. Medicare did not propose changes for 2011 to payment rates in other anatomies not described by the cranial and spinalprocedure codes. In November of 2009, we announced the introduction of the CyberKnife VSI system, which allows physicians to perform conventionallyfractioned robotic image guided intensity-modulated radiation therapy, or Robotic IMRT, in addition to Robotic Stereotactic Radiosurgery procedures.Reimbursement for Robotic IMRT is expected to be similar to conventional IMRT. Medicare 2011 proposed physician fee schedule rules reflect an11% increase in 2011 for the treatment delivery code used to report IMRT services delivered by the CyberKnife VSI system.Regulatory MattersDomestic Regulation Our products and software are medical devices subject to regulation by the FDA, as well as other regulatory bodies. FDA regulations govern thefollowing activities that we perform and will continue to perform to ensure that medical products distributed domestically or exported internationally aresafe and effective for their intended uses:•Product design and development; •Document and purchasing controls; •Production and process controls; •Acceptance controls; •Product testing; •Product manufacturing; •Product safety;14Table of Contents•Product labeling; •Product storage; •Recordkeeping; •Complaint handling; •Pre-market clearance or approval; •Advertising and promotion; and •Product sales and distribution. FDA pre-market clearance and approval requirements. Unless an exemption applies, each medical device we wish to commercially distributein the United States will require either prior 510(k) clearance or pre-market approval from the FDA. The FDA classifies medical devices into one ofthree classes. Devices deemed to pose lower risks are placed in either class I or II, which requires the manufacturer to submit to the FDA a pre-marketnotification requesting permission to commercially distribute the device. This process is generally known as 510(k) clearance. Some low risk devicesare exempted from this requirement. Devices deemed by the FDA to pose the greatest risks, such as life-sustaining, life-supporting or implantabledevices, or devices deemed not substantially equivalent to a previously cleared 510(k) device, are placed in class III, requiring pre-market approval. Allof our current products are class II devices. 510(k) clearance pathway. When a 510(k) clearance is required, we must submit a pre-market notification demonstrating that our proposeddevice is substantially equivalent to a previously cleared 510(k) device or a device that was in commercial distribution before May 28, 1976 for whichthe FDA has not yet called for the submission of pre-market approval applications, or PMA. By regulation, the FDA is required to clear or deny a510(k) pre-market notification within 90 days of submission of the application. As a practical matter, clearance may take longer. The FDA may requirefurther information, including clinical data, to make a determination regarding substantial equivalence. In July 1999, we received 510(k) clearance for the CyberKnife system for use in the head and neck regions of the body. In August 2001, wereceived 510(k) clearance for the CyberKnife system to provide treatment planning and image guided stereotactic radiosurgery and precisionradiotherapy for lesions, tumors and conditions anywhere in the body where radiation treatment is indicated. In April 2002, we received 510(k)clearance for the Synchrony Motion Tracking System as an option to the CyberKnife system, intended to enable dynamic image guided stereotacticradiosurgery and precision radiotherapy of lesions, tumors and conditions that move under influence of respiration. Pre-market approval (PMA) pathway. A PMA must be submitted to the FDA if the device cannot be approved through the 510(k) clearanceprocess. A PMA must be supported by extensive data, including but not limited to, technical, preclinical, clinical trials, manufacturing and labeling todemonstrate to the FDA's satisfaction the safety and effectiveness of the device. No device that we have developed has required pre-market approval,nor do we currently expect that any future device or indication will require pre-market approval. Product modifications. After a device receives 510(k) clearance or a PMA, any modification that could significantly affect its safety oreffectiveness, or that would constitute a significant change in its intended use, will require a new clearance or approval. We have modified aspects of ourCyberKnife system family of products since receiving regulatory clearance, and we have applied for and obtained additional 510(k) clearances for thesemodifications when we determined such clearances were required for the modifications. The FDA requires each manufacturer to make thisdetermination initially, but the FDA can review any such decision and can disagree with a manufacturer's determination. If the FDA disagrees with ourdetermination not to seek a new 510(k) clearance or PMA, the FDA may15Table of Contentsretroactively require us to seek 510(k) clearance or pre-market approval. The FDA could also require us to cease marketing and distribution and/or recallthe modified device until 510(k) clearance or pre-market approval is obtained. Also, in these circumstances, we may be subject to significant regulatoryfines or penalties. During our fiscal year ended June 30, 2009, we submitted one 510(k) clearance notification for modifications made to the operationof the CyberKnife system. The submission was cleared on September 18, 2009. Pervasive and continuing regulation. After a device is placed on the market, numerous regulatory requirements apply. These include:•Quality System Regulation, or QSR, which require manufacturers, including third-party manufacturers, to follow stringent design,testing, control, documentation and other quality assurance procedures during product design and throughout the manufacturing process;•Labeling regulations and FDA prohibitions against the promotion of products for uncleared, unapproved or off-label uses; and •Medical device reporting regulations, which require that manufacturers report to the FDA if their device may have caused or contributedto a death or serious injury or malfunctioned in a way that would likely cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if the malfunctionwere to recur. The FDA has broad post-market and regulatory enforcement powers. We are subject to unannounced inspections by the FDA and the Food andDrug Branch of the California Department of Health Services to determine our compliance with the QSR and other regulations, and these inspectionsmay include the manufacturing facilities of some of our subcontractors. In the past, our prior facility has been inspected, and observations were noted.In August 2008, during routine inspections performed by the FDA, one minor observation was made. We have taken corrective action on the minorobservation in response to the FDA's observation. There were no observations that involved a material violation of regulatory requirements. We believethat we are in substantial compliance with the QSR. Failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in enforcement action by theFDA, which may include any of the following sanctions:•Fines, injunctions, consent decrees and civil penalties; •Recall or seizure of our products; •Operating restrictions, partial suspension or total shutdown of production; •Refusing our requests for 510(k) clearance or pre-market approval of new products or new intended uses; •Withdrawing 510(k) clearance or pre-market approvals that are already granted; and •Criminal prosecution. The FDA also has the authority to require us to repair, replace or refund the cost of any medical device that we have manufactured or distributed. Ifany of these events were to occur, they could have a material adverse effect on our business. On August 3, 2010, the FDA, or Agency, released for public comment two internal working group reports with numerous recommendations (1) toimprove the 510(k) process and (2) to utilize science in regulatory decision making in ways that encourage innovation yet maintain predictability.Comments are due in 60 days and the FDA is targeting the implementation of or setting timelines for the implementation of "non-controversial"recommendations by the end of the year. At the same time, the FDA acknowledges that the recommendations are preliminary and no decisions havebeen made on specific changes to pursue. Nevertheless, we anticipate significant changes will result in the way 510(k)16Table of Contentsprograms will operate and the data requirements, including clinical data, to obtain 510(k) clearance or PMA approval. We cannot predict what effectthese reforms will have on our ability to obtain 510(k) clearances or PMA approvals in a timely manner or the effect on our business. On June 9 and 10, 2010, the FDA held a public meeting entitled "Device Improvements to Reduce the Number of Under-doses, Over-doses, andMisaligned Exposures from Therapeutic Radiation." The expressed purpose of the meeting was to discuss steps that could be taken by manufacturers ofradiation therapy devices to help reduce misadministration and misaligned exposures. In advance of and at the meeting, the FDA requested comments inthe following areas: features that should be incorporated into radiation therapy devices and their related software, user training, and quality assurancemeasures. It is likely that the Agency will use the information gleaned at this meeting to revise the standards and requirements for designing,manufacturing and marketing devices such as ours, creating uncertainty in the current regulatory environment around our current products anddevelopment of future products. Radiological health. Because our CyberKnife system contains both laser and X-ray components, and because we assemble these componentsduring manufacturing and service activities, we are also regulated under the Electronic Product Radiation Control Provisions of the Federal Food, Drug,and Cosmetic Act. This law requires laser and X-ray products to comply with regulations and applicable performance standards, and manufacturers ofthese products to certify in product labeling and reports to the FDA that their products comply with all such standards. The law also requiresmanufacturers to file new product reports, and to file annual reports and maintain manufacturing, testing and sales records, and report product defects.Various warning labels must be affixed. Assemblers of diagnostic X-ray systems are also required to certify in reports to the FDA, equipmentpurchasers, and where applicable, to state agencies responsible for radiation protection, that diagnostic and/or therapeutic X-ray systems they assemblemeet applicable requirements. Failure to comply with these requirements could result in enforcement action by the FDA, which can include injunctions,civil penalties, and the issuance of warning letters. In the past, we failed to submit required reports to the FDA in a timely fashion. To correct ourreporting deficiencies, in 2003 we initiated a corrective action plan that included, among other things, filing all past due reports with the FDA, applicablestate agencies, and customers. We have also developed and implemented procedures to ensure future reports are made in a timely manner. While webelieve all past reporting deficiencies have been corrected, we cannot assure you that the FDA will deem our corrective actions sufficient or that theFDA will not initiate enforcement action against us.Fraud and Abuse Laws We are subject to various federal and state laws pertaining to healthcare fraud and abuse, including anti-kickback laws and physician self-referrallaws. Violations of these laws are punishable by significant criminal and civil sanctions, including, in some instances, exclusion from participation infederal and state healthcare programs, including Medicare and Medicaid. Because of the far-reaching nature of these laws, there can be no assurance thatwe would not be required to alter one or more of our practices to be in compliance with these laws. Evolving interpretations of current laws, or theadoption of new federal or state laws or regulations could adversely affect many of the arrangements we have with customers and physicians. Inaddition, there can be no assurance that the occurrence of one or more violations of these laws or regulations would not result in a material adverseeffect on our financial condition and results of operations. Anti-kickback laws. Our operations are subject to broad and changing federal and state anti-kickback laws. The Office of the Inspector Generalof the Department of Health and Human Services, or the OIG, is primarily responsible for enforcing the federal Anti-Kickback Statute and generally foridentifying fraud and abuse activities affecting government programs. The federal Anti-Kickback Statute prohibits persons from knowingly andwillfully soliciting, receiving, offering or17Table of Contentsproviding remuneration directly or indirectly to induce either the referral of an individual, or the furnishing, recommending, or arranging of a good orservice, for which payment may be made under a federal healthcare program such as Medicare and Medicaid. "Remuneration" has been broadlyinterpreted to include anything of value, including such items as gifts, discounts, the furnishing of supplies or equipment, credit arrangements, waiver ofpayments, and providing anything of value at less than fair market value. Penalties for violating the federal Anti-Kickback Statute include criminal fines of up to $25,000 and/or imprisonment for up to five years for eachviolation, civil fines of up to $50,000 and possible exclusion from participation in federal healthcare programs such as Medicare and Medicaid. Manystates have adopted prohibitions similar to the federal Anti-Kickback Statute, some of which apply to the referral of patients for healthcare servicesreimbursed by any source, not only by the Medicare and Medicaid programs, and do not include comparable exceptions. The OIG has issued safe harbor regulations which set forth certain activities and business relationships that are deemed safe from prosecutionunder the federal Anti-Kickback Statute. There are safe harbors for various types of arrangements, including, without limitation, certain investmentinterests, leases and personal services and management contracts. The failure of a particular activity to comply in all regards with the safe harborregulations does not mean that the activity violates the federal Anti-Kickback Statute or that prosecution will be pursued. However, conduct andbusiness arrangements that do not fully satisfy each applicable safe harbor may result in increased scrutiny by government enforcement authorities suchas the OIG. The OIG has identified the following arrangements with purchasers and their agents as ones raising potential risk of violation of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute:•Discount and free good arrangements that are not properly disclosed or accurately reported to federal healthcare programs; •Product support services, including billing assistance, reimbursement consultation and other services specifically tied to support of thepurchased product, offered in tandem with another service or program (such as a reimbursement guarantee) that confers a benefit to thepurchaser; •Educational grants conditioned in whole or in part on the purchase of equipment, or otherwise inappropriately influenced by sales andmarketing considerations; •Research funding arrangements, particularly post-marketing research activities, that are linked directly or indirectly to the purchase ofproducts, or otherwise inappropriately influenced by sales and marketing considerations; and •Other offers of remuneration to purchasers that are expressly or impliedly related to a sale or sales volume, such as "prebates" and"upfront payments," other free or reduced-price goods or services, and payments to cover costs of "converting" from a competitor'sproducts, particularly where the selection criteria for such offers vary with the volume or value of business generated. We have a variety of financial relationships with physicians who are in a position to generate business for us. For example, physicians who ownour stock also provide medical advisory and other consulting and personal services. Similarly, we have a variety of different types of arrangements withour customers. For example, our shared ownership program provides a CyberKnife system to customers in exchange for the greater of fixed minimumpayments or a portion of the service revenues generated by the customer from use of the CyberKnife. Included in the fee we charge for the sharedownership program are a variety of services, including physician training, educational and marketing support, general reimbursement guidance andtechnical support. In the case of our former placement program, certain services and upgrades were provided without additional charge based onprocedure volume. In18Table of Contentsthe past, we have also provided loans to our customers. We also provide research grants to customers to support customer studies related to, amongother things, our CyberKnife systems. If our past or present operations are found to be in violation of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute or similar government regulations to which we orour customers are subject, we or our officers may be subject to the applicable penalty associated with the violation, including significant civil andcriminal penalties, damages, fines, imprisonment, and exclusion from the Medicare and Medicaid programs. The impact of any such violation may leadto curtailment or restructuring of our operations. Any penalties, damages, fines, or curtailment or restructuring of our operations could adversely affectour ability to operate our business and our financial results. The risk of our being found in violation of these laws is increased by the fact that some ofthese laws are open to a variety of interpretations. Any action against us for violation of these laws, even if we successfully defend against it, couldcause us to incur significant legal expenses, divert our management's attention from the operation of our business and damage our reputation. If anenforcement action were to occur, our reputation and our business and financial condition could be harmed, even if we were to prevail or settle theaction. Similarly, if the physicians or other providers or entities with whom we do business are found to be non-compliant with applicable laws, theymay be subject to sanctions, which could also have a negative impact on our business. Several recently enacted state and federal laws, including laws inMassachusetts and Vermont, and the federal Physician Payment Sunshine Act, now require, among other things, extensive tracking, maintenance ofdata bases regarding and disclosures of relationships and payments to physicians and healthcare providers. These laws require us to implement thenecessary and costly infrastructure to track and report certain payments to healthcare providers. Failure to comply with these new tracking and reportinglaws could subject us to significant civil monetary penalties. Physician self-referral laws. We are also subject to federal and state physician self-referral laws. The federal Ethics in Patient Referral Act of1989, commonly known as the Stark Law, prohibits, subject to certain exceptions, physician referrals of Medicare and Medicaid patients to an entityproviding certain "designated health services" if the physician or an immediate family member has any financial relationship with the entity. The StarkLaw also prohibits the entity receiving the referral from billing any good or service furnished pursuant to an unlawful referral. In addition, in July 2008, CMS issued a final rule implementing significant amendments to the regulations under the federal Ethics in PatientReferrals Act, which is more commonly known as the Stark Law. The final rule, which was effective October 1, 2009, imposes additional limitations onthe ability of physicians to refer patients to medical facilities in which the physician has an ownership interest for treatment. Among other things, therule provides that leases of equipment between physician owners that may refer patients and hospitals must be on a fixed rate, rather than a per usebasis. Prior to enactment of the final rule, physician owned entities had increasingly become involved in the acquisition of medical technologies,including the CyberKnife system. In many cases, these entities entered into arrangements with hospitals that billed Medicare for the furnishing ofmedical services, and the physician owners were among the physicians who referred patients to the entity for services. The rule limits thesearrangements and could require the restructuring of existing arrangements between physicians owned entities and hospitals and could discouragephysicians from participating in the acquisition and ownership of medical technologies. The final rule also prohibits percentage-based compensation inequipment leases. As a result of the finalization of these regulations, some existing CyberKnife system operators have modified or restructured theircorporate or organizational structures. In addition, certain customers that planned to open CyberKnife centers in the United States involving physicianownership have restructured their legal ownership structure. Certain entities were not able to establish viable models for CyberKnife system operationand therefore canceled their CyberKnife system purchase agreements. Accordingly, these regulations have resulted in cancellations of CyberKnifesystem purchase agreements and could also reduce the attractiveness of medical technology acquisitions, including CyberKnife system purchases, byphysician-owned joint ventures or similar19Table of Contentsentities. As a result, these regulations have had, and could continue to have, an adverse impact on our product sales and therefore on our business andresults of operations. A person who engages in a scheme to circumvent the Stark Law's referral prohibition may be fined up to $100,000 for each such arrangement orscheme. In addition, any person who presents or causes to be presented a claim to the Medicare or Medicaid programs in violations of the Stark Law issubject to civil monetary penalties of up to $15,000 per bill submission, an assessment of up to three times the amount claimed, and possible exclusionfrom federal healthcare programs such as Medicare and Medicaid. Various states have corollary laws to the Stark Law, including laws that requirephysicians to disclose any financial interest they may have with a healthcare provider to their patients when referring patients to that provider. Both thescope and exceptions for such laws vary from state to state. Federal False Claims Act. The federal False Claims Act prohibits the knowing filing or causing the filing of a false claim or the knowing use offalse statements to obtain payment from the federal government. When an entity is determined to have violated the False Claims Act, it must pay threetimes the actual damages sustained by the government, plus mandatory civil penalties of between $5,500 and $11,000 for each separate false claim.Suits filed under the False Claims Act, known as "qui tam" actions, can be brought by any individual on behalf of the government and such individuals,sometimes known as "relators" or, more commonly, as "whistleblowers", may share in any amounts paid by the entity to the government in fines orsettlement. In addition, certain states have enacted laws modeled after the federal False Claims Act. Qui tam actions have increased significantly in recentyears, causing greater numbers of healthcare companies to have to defend a false claim action, pay fines or be excluded from Medicare, Medicaid orother federal or state healthcare programs as a result of an investigation arising out of such action. We have retained the services of a reimbursementconsultant, for which we pay certain consulting fees, to provide us and facilities that have purchased a CyberKnife system or acquired a CyberKnifesystem through our shared ownership program, with general reimbursement advice. While we believe this will assist our customers in filing properclaims for reimbursement and such consultants do not submit claims on behalf of our customers, the fact that we provide these consultant services couldexpose us to additional scrutiny and possible liability in the event one of our customers is investigated as a result of any of these laws. HIPAA. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, created two new federal crimes: healthcare fraud and falsestatements relating to healthcare matters. The healthcare fraud statute prohibits knowingly and willfully executing a scheme to defraud any healthcarebenefit program, including private payors. A violation of this statute is a felony and may result in fines, imprisonment or exclusion from governmentsponsored programs. The false statements statute prohibits knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making anymaterially false, fictitious or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services. A violation ofthis statute is a felony and may result in fines or imprisonment. As a participant in the healthcare industry, we are also subject to extensive laws and regulations protecting the privacy and integrity of patientmedical information, including privacy and security standards required under HIPAA. The HIPAA privacy standard was recently amended by theHealth Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act (HITECH), enacted as part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of2009. HITECH significantly increases the civil money penalties for violations of patient privacy rights protected under HIPAA. Furthermore, as ofFebruary 2010, Business Associates who have access to patient health information provided by hospitals and healthcare providers are now directlysubject to HIPAA, including a new enforcement scheme and inspection requirements.20Table of ContentsInternational Regulation International sales of medical devices are subject to foreign government regulations, which vary substantially from country to country. The timerequired to obtain clearance or approval by a foreign country may be longer or shorter than that required for FDA clearance or approval, and therequirements may be different. The primary regulatory environment in Europe is that of the European Union and the three additional member states of the European EconomicArea, or EEA, which have adopted similar laws and regulations with respect to medical devices. The European Union has adopted numerous directivesand the European Committee for Standardization has promulgated standards regulating the design, manufacture, clinical trials, labeling and adverseevent reporting for medical devices. Devices that comply with the requirements of the relevant directive will be entitled to bear CE conformity marking,indicating that the device conforms with the essential requirements of the applicable directives and, accordingly, may be commercially distributedthroughout the member states of the European Economic Area. The method of assessing conformity to applicable standards and directives depends on the type and class of the product, but normally involves acombination of self-assessment by the manufacturer and a third-party assessment by a notified body, an independent and neutral institution appointed bya European Union member state to conduct the conformity assessment. This relevant assessment may consist of an audit of the manufacturer's qualitysystem (currently ISO 13485), provisions of the Medical Devices Directive, and specific testing of the manufacturer's device. In September 2002, ourfacility was awarded the ISO 13485 certification, which replaces the ISO 9001 and EN 46001 approvals, which has been subsequently maintainedthrough periodic assessments, in accordance with the expiration dates of the standards, and we are currently authorized to affix the CE mark to ourproducts, allowing us to sell our products throughout the European Economic Area. We are also currently subject to regulations in Japan. A Japanese distributor received the first government approval to market the CyberKnifesystem from the Ministry of Health and Welfare, or MHLW, in November 1996. In December, 2003, we received approval from the MHLW to marketthe CyberKnife system in Japan for clinical applications in the head and neck, and a new distributor, Chiyoda Technol Corporation, was appointed todistribute the CyberKnife system. In June 2008, we received approval from the MHLW to market the CyberKnife system for treatments throughout thebody where radiation treatment is indicated. On June 30, 2009, our subsidiary, Accuray Japan KK, became the Marketing Authorization Holder inJapan, which allowed the Company to directly sell our products in Japan. In August 2010, we received Shonin approval from the Japanese Ministry ofHealth, Labor and Welfare (MHLW) to market the CyberKnife G4 system to treat tumors non-invasively anywhere in the body, inclusive of head andneck. We are subject to additional regulations in other foreign countries, including, but not limited to, Canada, Taiwan, China, Korea, and Russia in orderto sell our products. We intend that either we or our distributors will receive any necessary approvals or clearance prior to marketing our products inthose international markets.State Certificate of Need Laws In some states, a certificate of need or similar regulatory approval is required prior to the acquisition of high-cost capital items or the provision ofnew services. These laws generally require appropriate state agency determination of public need and approval prior to the acquisition of such capitalitems or addition of new services. Certificate of need regulations may preclude our customers from acquiring the CyberKnife system, whether throughpurchase or our shared ownership program, and from performing stereotactic radiosurgery procedures using the CyberKnife system. Several of ourprospective customers currently are involved in appeals of certificate of need determinations. If these21Table of Contentsappeals are not resolved in favor of these prospective customers, they may be precluded from purchasing and/or performing services using theCyberKnife system. Certificate of need laws are the subject of continuing legislative activity, and a significant increase in the number of states regulatingthe acquisition and use of the CyberKnife system through certificate of need or similar programs could adversely affect us.Employees As of June 30, 2010, we had 451 employees worldwide, including 117 in research and development, 75 in sales and marketing, 132 in installationand service, 32 in manufacturing, and 95 in administration. None of the employees is represented by a labor union or is covered by a collectivebargaining agreement. We have never experienced any employment related work stoppages and we believe our relationship with our employees is good.Geographic Information For financial reporting purposes, net sales and long-lived assets attributable to significant geographic areas are presented in "Note 2.

RISK FACTORS Risks Related to Our BusinessIf the CyberKnife system does not achieve widespread market acceptance, we will not be able to generate the revenue necessary to support ourbusiness. Achieving physician, patient, hospital administrator and third-party payor acceptance of the CyberKnife system as a preferred method of tumortreatment will be crucial to our continued success. Physicians will not begin to use or increase the use of the CyberKnife system unless they determine,based on experience, clinical data and other factors, that the CyberKnife system is a safe and effective alternative to current treatment methods. We oftenneed to educate physicians about the use of stereotactic radiosurgery, convince healthcare payors that the benefits of the CyberKnife system and itsrelated treatment process outweigh its costs and help train qualified physicists in the skilled use of the CyberKnife system. For example, the complexityand dynamic nature of stereotactic radiosurgery and IMRT requires significant education of hospital personnel and physicians regarding the benefits ofstereotactic radiosurgery and IMRT and require departures from their customary practices. We have expended and will continue to expend significantresources on marketing and educational efforts to create awareness of stereotactic radiosurgery and IMRT generally and to encourage the acceptance andadoption of our products for these technologies. The CyberKnife system was initially used primarily for the treatment of tumors in the brain, and the broader use of the system to treat tumorselsewhere in the body has been a more recent development. As a result, physician and patient acceptance of the CyberKnife system as a22Table of Contentscomprehensive tool for treatment of solid tumor cancers anywhere in the body has not yet been fully demonstrated, particularly as compared toproducts, systems or technologies that have longer histories in the marketplace. The CyberKnife system is a major capital purchase and purchasedecisions are greatly influenced by hospital administrators who are subject to increasing pressures to reduce costs. These and other factors, including thefollowing, may affect the rate and level of the CyberKnife system's market acceptance:•The CyberKnife system's price relative to other products or competing treatments; •Our ability to develop new products and enhancements to existing products in a timely manner; •Effectiveness of our sales and marketing efforts; •The impact of the current economic environment on our business, including the postponement by our customers of purchase decisions orrequired build-outs; •Capital equipment budgets of healthcare institutions; •Perception by physicians and other members of the healthcare community of the CyberKnife system's safety, efficacy and benefitscompared to competing technologies or treatments; •Publication in peer-reviewed medical journals of data regarding the successful use and longer term clinical benefits of the CyberKnifesystem; •Willingness of physicians to adopt new techniques and the ability of physicians to acquire the skills necessary to operate the CyberKnifesystem; •Extent of third-party coverage and reimbursement rates, particularly from Medicare, for procedures using the CyberKnife system; •Development of new products and technologies by our competitors or new treatment alternatives; •Regulatory developments related to manufacturing, marketing and selling the CyberKnife system both within and outside the UnitedStates; •Perceived liability risks arising from the use of new products; and •Unfavorable publicity concerning the CyberKnife system or radiation-based treatment alternatives. If the CyberKnife system is unable to achieve or maintain market acceptance, our revenue levels would decrease and our business would beharmed.If we are unable to develop new products or enhance existing products, we may be unable to attract or retain customers. Our success depends on the successful development, introduction and commercialization of new generations of products, treatment systems, andenhancements to and/or simplification of existing products. The CyberKnife system is technologically complex and must keep pace with, among otherthings, the products of our competitors. We are making significant investments in long-term growth initiatives. For example, in November of 2009 weannounced the introduction of the CyberKnife VSI system, which allows physicians to perform conventionally fractioned robotic intensity modulatedradiation therapy, or Robotic IMRT, in addition to stereotactic radiosurgery. Such initiatives require significant capital commitments, involvement ofsenior management and other investments on our part, which we may be unable to recover. Our timeline for the development of new products orenhancements may not be achieved and price and profitability targets may not prove feasible. Commercialization of new products may provechallenging, and we may be required to invest more23Table of Contentstime and money than expected to successfully introduce them. Once introduced, new products may adversely impact orders and sales of our existingproducts, or make them less desirable or even obsolete. Compliance with regulations, competitive alternatives, and shifting market preferences may alsoimpact the successful implementation of new products or enhancements. Our ability to successfully develop and introduce new products, treatment systems and product enhancements and simplifications, and the revenuesand costs associated with these efforts, are affected by our ability to:•Properly identify customer needs; •Prove feasibility of new products; •Educate physicians about the use of new products and procedures; •Limit the time required from proof of feasibility to routine production; •Comply with internal quality assurance systems and processes timely and efficiently; •Limit the timing and cost of regulatory approvals; •Accurately predict and control costs associated with inventory overruns caused by phase-in of new products and phase-out of oldproducts; •Price our products competitively; •Manufacture and deliver our products in sufficient volumes on time, and accurately predict and control costs associated withmanufacturing, installation, warranty and maintenance of the products; •Manage customer acceptance and payment for products; •Manage customer demands for retrofits of both old and new products; and •Anticipate and compete successfully with competitors. Even if customers accept new products or product enhancements, the revenues from these products may not be sufficient to offset the significantcosts associated with making them available to customers. We cannot be sure that we will be able to successfully develop, manufacture or introduce new products, treatment systems or enhancements, theroll-out of which involves compliance with complex quality assurance processes, including the quality system regulation, or QSR, and enforced by theFDA. Failure to complete these processes timely and efficiently could result in delays that could affect our ability to attract and retain customers, orcould cause customers to delay or cancel orders, causing our backlog, revenues and operating results to suffer.If we are unable to provide the significant education and training required for the healthcare market to accept our products, our business willsuffer. In order to achieve market acceptance of the CyberKnife system, we often need to educate physicians about the use of stereotactic radiosurgery,convince healthcare payors that the benefits of the CyberKnife system and its related treatment process outweigh its costs and help train qualifiedphysicists in the skilled use of the CyberKnife system. For example, the complexity and dynamic nature of stereotactic radiosurgery and Robotic IMRTrequires significant education of hospital personnel and physicians regarding the benefits of stereotactic radiosurgery and Robotic IMRT and requiredepartures from their customary practices. We have expended and will continue to expend significant resources on marketing and educational efforts tocreate awareness of stereotactic radiosurgery and Robotic IMRT and to encourage the acceptance and adoption of our products for these technologies.We cannot be24Table of Contentssure that any products we develop will gain significant market acceptance among physicians, patients and healthcare payors, even if we spendsignificant time and expense on their education. Failure to gain significant market acceptance would adversely affect our product sales and revenues,harming our business, financial condition and results of operations.We have a large accumulated deficit, may incur future losses and may be unable to maintain profitability. As of June 30, 2010, we had an accumulated deficit of $117.7 million. We may incur net losses in the future, particularly as we increase ourmanufacturing, research and development, and marketing activities in connection with, among other things, the Strategic Alliance Agreement we enteredinto with Siemens AG on June 8, 2010. Our ability to maintain long-term profitability is largely dependent on our ability to successfully market and sellthe CyberKnife system and to control our costs and effectively manage our growth. We cannot assure you that we will be able to maintain profitability.In the event we fail to maintain profitability, our stock price could decline.We face risks related to the current global economic environment, which could delay or prevent our customers from obtaining financing topurchase the CyberKnife system and implement the required facilities, which would adversely affect our business, financial condition and resultsof operations. The state of the global economy continues to be uncertain. The current global economic conditions pose a risk to the overall economy that couldimpact consumer and customer demand for our products, as well as our ability to manage normal commercial relationships with our customers,suppliers and creditors, including financial institutions. If the current situation deteriorates or does not improve, our business could be negativelyaffected, including such areas as reduced demand for our products resulting from a slow-down in the general economy, supplier or customerdisruptions and/or temporary interruptions in our ability to conduct day-to-day transactions through our financial intermediaries involving the paymentto or collection of funds from our customers, vendors and suppliers. In addition, due to tight credit markets and concerns regarding the availability of credit, particularly in the United States, some of our customershave been delayed in obtaining, or have not been able to obtain, necessary financing for their purchases of the CyberKnife system or for the constructionor renovation of facilities to house CyberKnife systems. To date, these delays have primarily affected customers that were planning to operatefreestanding CyberKnife systems, rather than hospital-based customers. These delays have in some instances led to our customers postponing theshipment and installation of previously ordered systems or cancelling their system orders, and may cause other customers to postpone their systeminstallation or to cancel their agreements with us. An increase in delays and order cancellations of this nature would adversely affect our product salesand revenues, and therefore harm our business and results of operations.The high unit price of the CyberKnife system, as well as other factors, may contribute to substantial fluctuations in our operating results, whichcould adversely affect our stock price. Because of the high unit price of the CyberKnife system and the relatively small number of units installed each quarter, each installation of aCyberKnife system can represent a significant percentage of our revenue for a particular quarter. Therefore, if we do not install a CyberKnife systemwhen anticipated, our operating results will vary significantly from our expectations. This is of particular concern in the current volatile economicenvironment, where we have had experiences with customers cancelling or postponing orders for our CyberKnife system and delaying the requiredbuild-outs. These fluctuations and other potential fluctuations mean that you should not rely upon our operating results25Table of Contentsin any particular period as an indication of future performance. In particular, factors which may contribute to these fluctuations include:•Timing of when we are able to recognize revenue associated with sales of the CyberKnife system, which varies depending upon theterms of the applicable sales and service contracts; •The proportion of revenue attributable to purchases of the CyberKnife system, our shared ownership program and installations, which isassociated with our legacy service plans; •Timing and level of expenditures associated with new product development activities; •Regulatory requirements in some states for a certificate of need prior to the installation of a radiation device; •Delays in shipment due, for example, to unanticipated construction delays at customer locations where our products are to be installed,cancellations by customers, natural disasters or labor disturbances; •Delays in our manufacturing processes or unexpected manufacturing difficulties; •Timing of the announcement, introduction and delivery of new products or product upgrades by us and by our competitors; •Timing and level of expenditures associated with expansion of sales and marketing activities such as trade shows and our overalloperations; •Fluctuations in our gross margins and the factors that contribute to such fluctuations, as described in the Management Discussion andAnalysis Results of Operations below; •How well we execute on our strategic and operating plans; •The extent to which our products gain market acceptance; •Actions relating to regulatory matters; •Demand for our products; •Our ability to develop, introduce and market new or enhanced versions of our products on a timely basis; •Our ability to protect our proprietary rights and defend against third party challenges; •Disruptions in the supply or changes in the costs of raw materials, labor, product components or transportation services; and •Changes in third party coverage and reimbursement, changes in government regulation, or a change in a customer's financial condition orability to obtain financing. These factors are difficult to forecast and may contribute to substantial fluctuations in our quarterly revenues and substantial variation from ourprojections, particularly during the periods in which our sales volume is low. These fluctuations may cause volatility in our stock price.Because the majority of our revenue is derived from sales of the CyberKnife system, and because we experience a long and variable sales andinstallation cycle, our quarterly results may be inconsistent from period to period. These fluctuations in revenue may make it difficult to predictour revenue. Our primary product is the CyberKnife system. We expect to generate substantially all of our revenue for the foreseeable future from sales of andservice contracts for the CyberKnife system. The CyberKnife system has lengthy sales and purchase order cycles because it is a major capital equipmentitem and requires the approval of senior management at purchasing institutions. The sales process in26Table of Contentsthe United States typically begins with pre-selling activity followed by sales presentations and other sales-related activities. After the customer hasexpressed an intention to purchase a CyberKnife system, we negotiate and enter into a definitive purchase contract with the customer. Typically,following the execution of the contract, the customer begins the building or renovation of a facility to house the CyberKnife system, which together withthe subsequent installation of the CyberKnife system, can take up to 24 months to complete. During the period prior to installation, the customer mustbuild a radiation-shielded facility to house its CyberKnife system. In order to construct this facility, the customer must typically obtain radiation deviceinstallation permits, which are granted by state and local government bodies, each of which may have different criteria for permit issuance. If a permitwere denied for installation at a specific hospital or treatment center, our CyberKnife system could not be installed at that location. In addition, some ofour customers are cancer centers or facilities that are new, and in these cases it may be necessary for the entire facility to be completed before theCyberKnife system can be installed, which can result in additional construction and installation delays. Our sales and installations of CyberKnifesystems tend to be heaviest during the third month of each fiscal quarter. Under our revenue recognition policy, we generally do not recognize revenue attributable to a CyberKnife system purchase until after installationhas occurred, if we are responsible for providing installation, or delivery. For international sales through distributors, we typically recognize revenuewhen the system is shipped with evidence of sell through to the end user. Under our current forms of purchase and service contracts, we receive amajority of the purchase price for the CyberKnife system upon installation or delivery of the system. Events beyond our control may delay installationand the satisfaction of contingencies required to receive cash inflows and recognize revenue, such as:•Procurement delay; •Customer funding or financing delay; •Delay in or unforeseen difficulties related to customers organizing legal entities and obtaining financing for CyberKnife systemacquisition; •Construction delay; •Delay pending customer receipt of regulatory approvals, including, for example, certificates of need; •Delay pending customer receipt of a building or radiation device installation permit; and •Delay caused by weather or natural disaster. In the event that a customer does not, for any of the reasons above or other reasons, proceed with installation of the system after entering into apurchase contract, we would only recognize up to the deposit portion of the purchase price as revenue, unless the deposit was refunded to the customer.Therefore, the long sales cycle together with delays in the shipment and installation of CyberKnife systems or customer cancellations would adverselyaffect our cash flows and revenue, which would harm our results of operations and may result in significant fluctuations in our reporting of quarterlyrevenues. Because of these fluctuations, it is likely that in some future quarters, our operating results will fall below the expectations of securitiesanalysts or investors. If that happens, the market price of our stock would likely decrease. These fluctuations also mean that you will not be able to relyupon our operating results in any particular period as an indication of future performance.27Table of ContentsOur ability to increase our profitability depends in part on maintaining or increasing our gross margins on product sales and service, which wemay not be able to achieve. A number of factors may result in adverse impacts to our gross margins, including:•The timing of revenue recognition and revenue deferrals; •Sales discounts; •Changes in product configurations; •Increases in material or labor costs; •Increased service costs; •Increased warranty costs; •Excess inventory and inventory holding charges; •Obsolescence charges; •Our ability to reduce production costs; •Increased price competition; •Variation in the margins across products installed in a particular period; and •How well we execute on our strategic and operating plans.If third-party payors do not provide sufficient coverage and reimbursement to healthcare providers for use of the CyberKnife system, demand forour products and our revenue could be adversely affected. Our customers rely significantly on reimbursement for CyberKnife procedures. Our ability to commercialize our products successfully will dependin significant part on the extent to which public and private third-party payors provide adequate coverage and reimbursement for our products andrelated procedures. Third party payors, and in particular managed care organizations, challenge the prices charged for medical products and services andinstitute cost containment measures to control or significantly influence the purchase of medical products and services. If reimbursement policies orother cost containment measures are instituted in a manner that significantly reduces the coverage for or payment of our products, our existingcustomers may not continue using our products or may decrease their use of our products, and we may have difficulty obtaining new customers. Suchactions would likely have a material adverse effect on our operating results. In October 2009, the centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS,issued the 2010 Medicare payment rates. The reimbursement rates are modestly lower than in the prior year, which could have a negative impact on thecontinued use of our products by existing customers and our ability to obtain new customers. CMS reviews such rates annually, and could implementmore significant changes in future years. If in the future CMS significantly decreases reimbursement rates for stereotactic radiosurgery and RoboticIMRT services, or if other cost containment measures are implemented in the United States or elsewhere, such changes could discourage cancertreatment centers and hospitals from purchasing our products. We have seen our customers' decision making process complicated by the uncertaintysurrounding the proposed reduction in Medicare reimbursement rates for radiotherapy and radiosurgery at freestanding clinics in the United States andfor physician reimbursement for radiation oncology, which has resulted in delay and sometimes even failure to purchase our products.28Table of ContentsOur industry is subject to intense competition and rapid technological change, which may result in products or new tumor treatments that aresuperior to the CyberKnife system. If we are unable to anticipate or keep pace with changes in the marketplace and the direction of technologicalinnovation and customer demands, our products may become less useful or obsolete and our operating results will suffer. The medical device industry in general and the non-invasive cancer treatment field in particular are subject to intense and increasing competitionand rapidly evolving technologies. Because our products often have long development and government approval cycles, we must anticipate changes inthe marketplace and the direction of technological innovation and customer demands. To compete successfully, we will need to continue to demonstratethe advantages of our products and technologies over well-established alternative procedures, products and technologies, and convince physicians andother healthcare decision makers of the advantages of our products and technologies. Traditional surgery and other forms of minimally invasiveprocedures, chemotherapy or other drugs remain alternatives to the CyberKnife system. Also, we compete directly with traditional standard linac basedradiation therapy systems primarily from Elekta AB (publ), or Elekta, BrainLAB AG, the Integra Radionics business of Integra LifeSciences HoldingsCorporation, or Radionics, and Varian Medical Systems, Inc., or Varian, and we believe that new competitors will enter our market. The market for standard linear accelerators is dominated by three companies: Elekta, Siemens AG and Varian. In addition, TomoTherapyIncorporated markets and sells a radiation therapy product. The CyberKnife system has not typically been used to perform traditional radiation therapyand therefore competition has been limited with standard medical linacs that perform traditional radiation therapy. However, the CyberKnife VSIsystem, which we introduced in November of 2009, may be used to perform Robotic IMRT, an advanced method of traditional radiation therapy, whichproducts of these competitors are also capable of performing. In addition, some manufacturers of standard linac based radiation therapy systems,including Varian and Elekta, have products that can be used in combination with body and/or head frames and image-guidance systems to performradiosurgery. Furthermore, many government, academic and business entities are investing substantial resources in research and development of cancertreatments, including surgical approaches, radiation treatment, drug treatment, gene therapy, which is the treatment of disease by replacing, manipulating,or supplementing nonfunctional genes, and other approaches. Moreover, at least one other company has announced that it is developing a product that,if introduced, would be directly competitive with the CyberKnife. Successful developments that result in new approaches for the treatment of cancercould reduce the attractiveness of our products or render them obsolete. Our future success will depend in large part on our ability to establish and maintain a competitive position in current and future technologies. Rapidtechnological development may render the CyberKnife system and its technologies obsolete. Many of our competitors have or may have greatercorporate, financial, operational, sales and marketing resources, and more experience in research and development than we have. We cannot assure youthat our competitors will not succeed in developing or marketing technologies or products that are more effective or commercially attractive than ourproducts or that would render our technologies and products obsolete. We may not have the financial resources, technical expertise, marketing,distribution or support capabilities to compete successfully in the future. Our success will depend in large part on our ability to maintain a competitiveposition with our technologies. Our competitive position also depends on:•Widespread awareness, acceptance and adoption by the radiation oncology and cancer therapy markets of our products; •The discovery of new technologies that improve the effectiveness and productivity of the CyberKnife system radiosurgery process;29Table of Contents•Product coverage and reimbursement from third-party payors, insurance companies and others; •Properly identifying customer needs and delivering new products or product enhancements to address those needs; •Published studies supporting the efficacy and safety and long-term clinical benefit of the CyberKnife system; •Limiting the time required from proof of feasibility to routine production; •Limiting the timing and cost of regulatory approvals; •Our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; •The extent of our patent protection or our ability to otherwise develop proprietary products and processes; •Securing sufficient capital resources to expand both our continued research and development, and sales and marketing efforts; and •Obtaining any necessary United States or foreign marketing approvals or clearances. If customers choose not to purchase a CyberKnife system or choose to purchase our competitors' products, our revenue and market share would beadversely impacted. In addition, companies in the pharmaceutical or biotechnology fields may seek to develop methods of cancer treatment that are moreeffective than radiation therapy and radiosurgery, resulting in decreased demand for the CyberKnife system. Because the CyberKnife system has a longdevelopment cycle and because it can take significant time to receive government approvals for changes to the CyberKnife system, we must anticipatechanges in the marketplace and the direction of technological innovation. Accordingly, if we are unable to anticipate and keep pace with new innovationsin the cancer treatment market, the CyberKnife system or an aspect of its functionality may be rendered obsolete, which would have a material adverseeffect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results.As a result, current and potential stockholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which could have an adverse effect on ourbusiness and our stock price. Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and to protect from fraudulent, illegal or unauthorizedtransactions. If we cannot provide effective controls and reliable financial reports, our business and operating results could be harmed. Our managementdetermined, as of June 30, 2008 and September 30, 2008, that we had material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting and that ourdisclosure controls and procedures were not effective. We began our remediation efforts in fiscal year 2009 and we concluded that there were nodeficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting that would constitute a material weakness as of June 30, 2009 or since then. Although we aremaking additional improvements in our internal controls over financial reporting, in future periods we may conclude that we have one or more materialweaknesses, and remedying these material weaknesses may require significant additional financial and managerial resources and could result in a loss ofinvestor confidence in our internal controls and financial reporting.We may have difficulties in determining the effectiveness of our internal control due to our complex financial model. The complexity of our financial model contributes to our need for effective financial reporting systems and internal controls. We recognize revenuefrom a range of transactions including CyberKnife system sales, our shared ownership program and services. The CyberKnife system is a complexproduct30Table of Contentsthat contains both hardware and software elements. Since the software element is a significant component in our solution, we are bound by the softwarerevenue recognition rules for our business. The complexity of the CyberKnife system and of our financial model pertaining to revenue recognitionrequires us to process a broader range of financial transactions than would be required by a company with a less complex financial model. Accordingly,deficiencies or weaknesses in our internal controls would likely impact us more significantly than they would impact a company with a less complexfinancial model. If we were to find that our internal controls were deficient, we could be required to amend or restate our historical financial statements,which would likely have a negative impact on our stock price.Our reliance on single source suppliers for critical components of the CyberKnife system could harm our ability to meet demand for our productsin a timely and cost effective manner. We currently depend on single source suppliers for some of the critical components necessary for the assembly of the CyberKnife system,including the robotic manipulator, imaging plates, treatment table, robotic couch and magnetron, which creates the microwaves for use in the linearaccelerator. If any single source suppliers were to cease delivering components to us or fail to provide the components on a timely basis, we might berequired to find alternative sources for these components. We may have difficulty or be unable to find alternative sources for these components. As aresult, we may be unable to meet the demand for the CyberKnife system, which could harm our ability to generate revenue and damage our reputation.Even if we do find alternate suppliers, we might be required to qualify any such alternate suppliers and we would likely experience a lengthy delay inour manufacturing processes or a cessation in production, which would result in delays of shipment to end users. We cannot assure you that our singlesource suppliers will be able or willing to meet our future demands. We generally do not maintain large volumes of inventory, which makes us even more susceptible to harm if a single source supplier fails to delivercomponents on a timely basis. Furthermore, if we are required to change the manufacturer of a critical component of the CyberKnife system, we will berequired to verify that the new manufacturer maintains facilities, procedures and operations that comply with our quality and applicable regulatoryrequirements. We also will be required to assess the new manufacturer's compliance with all applicable regulations and guidelines, which could furtherimpede our ability to manufacture our products in a timely manner. If the change in manufacturer results in a significant change to the product, a new510(k) clearance would be necessary, which would likely cause substantial delays. The disruption or termination of the supply of key components forthe CyberKnife system could harm our ability to manufacture our products in a timely manner or within budget, harm our ability to generate revenue,lead to customer dissatisfaction and damage our reputation.It is difficult and costly to protect our intellectual property and our proprietary technologies, and we may not be able to ensure their protection. Our success depends significantly on our ability to obtain, maintain and protect our proprietary rights to the technologies used in our products.Patents and other proprietary rights provide uncertain protections, and we may be unable to protect our intellectual property. For example, we may beunsuccessful in defending our patents and other proprietary rights against third party challenges. In addition to patents, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, copyright and trademark laws, nondisclosure agreements and other contractualprovisions and technical security measures to protect our intellectual property rights. These measures may not be adequate to safeguard the technologyunderlying our products. If these measures do not protect our rights adequately, third parties could use our technology, and our ability to compete in themarket would be reduced. Although we have attempted to obtain patent coverage for our technology where available and appropriate, there are aspectsof the technology for which patent coverage was never sought or never received. There are also31Table of Contentscountries in which we sell or intend to sell the CyberKnife system but have no patents or pending patent applications. Our ability to prevent others frommaking or selling duplicate or similar technologies will be impaired in those countries in which we have no patent protection. Although we have severalissued patents in the United States and in foreign countries protecting aspects of the CyberKnife system, our pending United States and foreign patentapplications may not issue, may issue only with limited coverage or may issue and be subsequently successfully challenged by others and held invalidor unenforceable. Similarly, our issued patents and those of our licensors may not provide us with any competitive advantages. Competitors may be able to designaround our patents or develop products which provide outcomes comparable or superior to ours. Our patents may be held invalid or unenforceable as aresult of legal challenges by third parties, and others may challenge the inventorship or ownership of our patents and pending patent applications. Inaddition, the laws of some foreign countries may not protect our intellectual property rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States. In theevent a competitor infringes upon our patent or other intellectual property rights, enforcing those rights may be difficult and time consuming. Even ifsuccessful, litigation to enforce our intellectual property rights or to defend our patents against challenge could be expensive and time consuming andcould divert our management's attention. We may not have sufficient resources to enforce our intellectual property rights or to defend our patents againsta challenge. We also license patent and other proprietary rights to aspects of our technology to third parties in fields where we currently do not operate as wellas in fields where we currently do operate. Disputes with our licensees may arise regarding the scope and content of these licenses. Further, our abilityto expand into additional fields with our technologies may be restricted by our existing licenses or licenses we may grant to third parties in the future. In October 2006, January 2007 and February 2007, we received correspondence from American Science and Engineering, Inc., or AS&E,expressing concerns that we may be using certain intellectual property we acquired from AS&E through the HES acquisition in a manner that breaches,or may breach, our contractual obligations under a license agreement with them in certain non-medical fields. The intellectual property at issue relates tothe development of a next-generation linac that could be used for medical as well as non-medical purposes. We are developing the technology used inthe next-generation linac independently from the intellectual property we obtained from the HES acquisition. In January of 2010 we entered into aSupply Agreement with AS&E, pursuant to which AS&E has acknowledged and agreed that our use of the intellectual property at issue did not breachor contravene the license agreement. The policies we have in place to protect our trade secrets may not be effective in preventing misappropriation of our trade secrets by others. Inaddition, confidentiality agreements executed by our employees, consultants and advisors may not be enforceable or may not provide meaningfulprotection for our trade secrets or other proprietary information in the event of unauthorized use or disclosure. Litigating a trade secret claim isexpensive and time consuming, and the outcome is unpredictable. In addition, courts outside the United States are sometimes less willing to protect tradesecrets. Moreover, our competitors may independently develop equivalent knowledge methods and know-how. If we are unable to protect ourintellectual property rights, we may be unable to prevent competitors from using our own inventions and intellectual property to compete against us, andour business may be harmed.Third parties may claim we are infringing their intellectual property, and we could suffer significant litigation or licensing expenses or beprevented from selling our product. The medical device industry is characterized by a substantial amount of litigation over patent and other intellectual property rights. In particular, thefield of radiation treatment of cancer is well established and crowded with the intellectual property of competitors and others. We also expect that32Table of Contentsother participants will enter the field—in particular, at least one other company has announced that it is developing a product that would be directlycompetitive with the CyberKnife. A number of companies in our market, as well as universities and research institutions, have issued patents and havefiled patent applications which relate to the use of stereotactic radiosurgery to treat solid cancerous and benign tumors. Determining whether a product infringes a patent involves complex legal and factual issues, and the outcome of patent litigation actions is oftenuncertain. We have not conducted an extensive search of patents issued to third parties, and no assurance can be given that third party patents containingclaims covering our products, parts of our products, technology or methods do not exist, have not been filed, or could not be filed or issued. Because ofthe number of patents issued and patent applications filed in our technical areas or fields, our competitors or other third parties may assert that ourproducts and the methods we employ in the use of our products are covered by United States or foreign patents held by them. For example, onAugust 6, 2010, Best Medical International, Inc. ("Best Medical") filed an additional lawsuit against the Company in the U.S. District court for theWestern District of Pennsylvania, claiming the Company has infringed U.S. Patent No. 5,596,619, a patent that Best Medical alleges protects a methodand apparatus for conformal radiation therapy. They are seeking declaratory and injunctive relief as well as unspecified compensatory and trebledamages and other relief. In addition, because patent applications can take many years to issue and because publication schedules for pending applications vary byjurisdiction, there may be applications now pending of which we are unaware, and which may result in issued patents which our current or futureproducts infringe. Also, because the claims of published patent applications can change between publication and patent grant, there may be publishedpatent applications that may ultimately issue with claims that we infringe. There could also be existing patents that one or more of our products or partsmay infringe and of which we are unaware. As the number of competitors in the market for less invasive cancer treatment alternatives grows, and as thenumber of patents issued in this area grows, the possibility of patent infringement claims against us increases. Regardless of the merit of infringementclaims, they can be time-consuming, result in costly litigation and diversion of technical and management personnel. Some of our competitors may beable to sustain the costs of complex patent litigation more effectively than we can because they have substantially greater resources. In addition, anyuncertainties resulting from the initiation and continuation of any litigation could have a material adverse effect on our ability to raise the funds necessaryto continue our operations. In the event that we become subject to a patent infringement or other intellectual property lawsuit and if the relevant patents or other intellectualproperty were upheld as valid and enforceable and we were found to infringe or violate the terms of a license to which we are a party, we could beprevented from selling our products unless we could obtain a license or were able to redesign the product to avoid infringement. Required licenses maynot be made available to us on acceptable terms or at all. If we were unable to obtain a license or successfully redesign our system, we might beprevented from selling our system. If there is an allegation or determination that we have infringed the intellectual property rights of a competitor orother person, we may be required to pay damages, or a settlement or ongoing royalties. In these circumstances, we may be unable to sell our products atcompetitive prices or at all, our business and operating results could be harmed.We could become subject to product liability claims, product recalls, other field actions and warranty claims that could be expensive, divertmanagement's attention and harm our business. Our business exposes us to potential liability risks that are inherent in the manufacturing, marketing and sale of medical device products. We maybe held liable if the CyberKnife system causes injury or death or is found otherwise unsuitable during usage. Our products incorporate sophisticatedcomponents and computer software. Complex software can contain errors, particularly when first33Table of Contentsintroduced. In addition, new products or enhancements may contain undetected errors or performance problems that, despite testing, are discovered onlyafter installation. Because our products are designed to be used to perform complex surgical procedures, defects could result in a number ofcomplications, some of which could be serious and could harm or kill patients. Any weaknesses in training and services associated with our productsmay also be subject to product liability lawsuits. It is also possible that defects in the design, manufacture or labeling of our products might necessitate aproduct recall or other field corrective action, which may result in warranty claims beyond our expectations and may harm our reputation. A productliability claim, regardless of its merit or eventual outcome, could result in significant legal defense costs. The coverage limits of our insurance policiesmay not be adequate to cover future claims. If sales of our products increase or we suffer future product liability claims, we may be unable to maintainproduct liability insurance in the future at satisfactory rates or with adequate amounts. A product liability claim, any product recalls or other field actionsor excessive warranty claims, whether arising from defects in design or manufacture or otherwise, could negatively affect our sales or require a changein the design, manufacturing process or the indications for which the CyberKnife system may be used, any of which could harm our reputation andbusiness and result in a decline in revenue. In addition, if a product we designed or manufactured is defective, whether due to design or manufacturing defects, improper use of the product orother reasons, we may be required to notify regulatory authorities and/or to recall the product, possibly at our expense. We have voluntarily conductedrecalls and product corrections in the past. There were no recalls during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010. A required notification to a regulatoryauthority or recall could result in an investigation by regulatory authorities of our products, which could in turn result in required recalls, restrictions onthe sale of the products or other civil or criminal penalties. The adverse publicity resulting from any of these actions could cause customers to reviewand potentially terminate their relationships with us. These investigations or recalls, especially if accompanied by unfavorable publicity or termination ofcustomer contracts, could result in our incurring substantial costs, losing revenues and damaging our reputation, each of which would harm ourbusiness.The safety and efficacy of our products for certain uses is not yet supported by long-term clinical data and may therefore prove to be less safe andeffective than initially thought. Although we believe that the CyberKnife system has advantages over competing products and technologies, we do not have sufficient clinical datademonstrating these advantages for all tumor indications. For example, because our CyberKnife procedures are relatively new, we have limited clinicaldata relating to the effectiveness of the CyberKnife system as a means of controlling the growth of cancer at a particular body site. In addition, we haveonly limited five-year patient survival rate data, which is a common long-term measure of clinical effectiveness in cancer treatment. Further, futurepatient studies or clinical experience may indicate that treatment with the CyberKnife system does not improve patient outcomes. Such results couldslow the adoption of our products by physicians, significantly reduce our ability to achieve expected revenues and could prevent us from becomingprofitable. In addition, if future results and experience indicate that our products cause unexpected or serious complications or other unforeseen negativeeffects, the FDA could rescind our clearances, our reputation with physicians, patients and others may suffer and we could be subject to significant legalliability.The CyberKnife system has been in use for a limited period of time for uses outside the brain, and the medical community has not yet developed alarge quantity of peer-reviewed literature that supports safe and effective use in those locations in the body. The CyberKnife system was initially cleared by a number of regulatory authorities for the treatment of tumors in the brain and neck. More recently,the CyberKnife system has been cleared in34Table of Contentsthe United States to treat tumors anywhere in the body where radiation is indicated, and our future growth is dependent in large part on continuedgrowth in full body use of the system. Currently, however, there are a limited number of peer-reviewed medical journal publications regarding the safetyand efficacy of the CyberKnife system for treatment of tumors outside the brain or spine. If later studies show that the CyberKnife system is lesseffective or less safe with respect to particular types of solid tumors, or in the event clinical studies do not achieve the results anticipated at the outset ofthe study, use of the CyberKnife system could fail to increase or could decrease and our growth and operating results would therefore be harmed.International sales of the CyberKnife system account for a significant portion of our revenue, which exposes us to risks inherent in internationaloperations. Our international sales have increased over the last four fiscal years. To accommodate our international sales, we have invested significant financialand management resources to develop an international infrastructure that will meet the needs of our customers. We anticipate that a significant portion ofour revenue will continue to be derived from sales of the CyberKnife system in foreign markets and that the percentage of our overall revenue that isderived from these markets will continue to increase. This revenue and related operations will therefore continue to be subject to the risks associatedwith international operations, including:•Economic or political instability; •Shipping delays; •Changes in foreign regulatory laws governing sales of medical devices; •Difficulties in enforcing agreements with and collecting receivables from customers outside the United States; •Longer payment cycles associated with many customers outside the United States; •Adequate reimbursement for the CyberKnife procedure outside the United States; •Failure of local laws to provide the same degree of protection against infringement of our intellectual property; •Protectionist laws and business practices that favor local competitors; •The possibility that foreign countries may impose additional taxes, tariffs or other restrictions on foreign trade; •Failure of Accuray employees or distributors to comply with export laws and requirements which may result in civil or criminal penaltiesand restrictions on our ability to export our products; •The expense of establishing facilities and operations in new foreign markets; •Building an organization capable of supporting geographically dispersed operations; •Risks relating to foreign currency; and •Contractual provisions governed by foreign laws and various trade restrictions, including U.S. prohibitions and restrictions on exportsof certain products and technologies to certain nations. Our international operations are also subject to United States laws regarding the conduct of business overseas by U.S. companies. In particular, theU.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, or FCPA, prohibits the provision of illegal or improper inducements to foreign government officials in connectionwith the obtaining of business overseas. Violations of the FCPA by us or any of our employees, executive officers or distributors could subject us orthe individuals involved to criminal or civil liability and could therefore materially harm our business.35Table of Contents In addition, future imposition of, or significant increases in, the level of customs duties, export quotas, regulatory restrictions or trade restrictionscould materially harm our business.Our results may be impacted by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Currently, the majority of our international sales are denominated in U.S. dollars. As a result, an increase in the value of the U.S. dollar relative toforeign currencies could require us to reduce our sales price or make our products less competitive in international markets. Also, as our internationalsales increase, we may enter into a greater number of transactions denominated in non-U.S. dollars, which would expose us to foreign currency risks,including changes in currency exchange rates. If we are unable to address these risks and challenges effectively, our international operations may not besuccessful and our business would be materially harmed.We depend on third-party distributors to market and distribute the CyberKnife system in international markets. If our distributors fail tosuccessfully market and distribute the CyberKnife system, our business will be materially harmed. We depend on a limited number of distributors in our international markets. We cannot control the efforts and resources our third-party distributorswill devote to marketing the CyberKnife system. Our distributors may not be able to successfully market and sell the CyberKnife system, may notdevote sufficient time and resources to support the marketing and selling efforts and may not market the CyberKnife system at prices that will permit theproduct to develop, achieve or sustain market acceptance. In some jurisdictions, we rely on our distributors to manage the regulatory process and we aredependent on their ability to do so effectively. For example, our regulatory approval in Japan was suspended for a period of twelve months during 2003as a result of a failure of our former distributor to coordinate product modifications and obtain necessary regulatory clearances in a timely manner. As aresult, the CyberKnife system was recalled in Japan and our former Japanese distributor was told to stop selling the CyberKnife system. In response,we retained a regulatory consultant who was not affiliated with our former Japanese distributor and worked with the Japanese Ministry of Health, Laborand Welfare and applied for, and received, approval to sell an updated version of the CyberKnife system under the name of CyberKnife II in Japan. Byworking with a new distributor, Chiyoda Technol Corporation, we were able to begin distributing the CyberKnife II system in 2004 with noprobationary period. In addition, if a distributor is terminated by us or goes out of business, it may take us a period of time to locate an alternativedistributor, to seek appropriate regulatory approvals and to train its personnel to market the CyberKnife system, and our ability to sell and service theCyberKnife system in the region formerly serviced by such terminated distributor could be materially adversely affected. Any of these factors couldmaterially adversely affect our revenue from international markets, increase our costs in those markets or damage our reputation. If we are unable toattract additional international distributors, our international revenue may not grow. If our distributors experience difficulties, do not actively market theCyberKnife system or do not otherwise perform under our distribution agreements, our potential for revenue and gross margins from internationalmarkets may be dramatically reduced, and our business could be harmed.We have limited experience and capability in manufacturing. If we encounter manufacturing problems, or if our manufacturing facilities do notcontinue to meet federal, state or foreign manufacturing standards, we may be required to temporarily cease all or part of our manufacturingoperations, which would result in delays and lost revenue. The CyberKnife system is complex, and requires the integration of a number of components from several sources of supply. We must manufactureand assemble these complex systems in commercial quantities in compliance with regulatory requirements and at an acceptable cost. We have a limitedhistory of manufacturing commercial quantities of the CyberKnife system. In particular, we36Table of Contentsmanufacture compact linacs as a component of the CyberKnife system. Our linac components are extremely complex devices and require significantexpertise to manufacture, and as a result of our limited manufacturing experience we may have difficulty producing needed materials in a commerciallyviable manner. We may encounter difficulties in scaling up production of the CyberKnife system, including problems with quality control andassurance, component supply shortages, increased costs, shortages of qualified personnel and/or difficulties associated with compliance with local, state,federal and foreign regulatory requirements. If our manufacturing capacity does not keep pace with product demand, we will not be able to fulfill ordersin a timely manner which in turn may have a negative effect on our financial results and overall business. Conversely, if demand for our productsdecreases, the fixed costs associated with excess manufacturing capacity may adversely affect our financial results. Our manufacturing processes and the manufacturing processes of our third-party suppliers are required to comply with the FDA's Quality SystemRegulation, or QSR. The QSR is a complex regulatory scheme that covers the methods and documentation of the design, testing, production processes,controls, manufacturing, labeling, quality assurance, packaging, storage and shipping of our products. We are also subject to state requirements andlicenses applicable to manufacturers of medical devices, and we are required to comply with International Organization for Standardization, or ISO,quality system standards in order to produce products for sale in Europe. Because our manufacturing processes include diagnostic and therapeutic X-rayequipment and laser equipment, we are subject to the electronic product radiation control provisions of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, whichrequires that we file reports with the FDA, applicable states and our customers regarding the distribution, manufacturing and installation of these typesof equipment. The FDA enforces the QSR and the electronic product radiation control provisions through periodic unannounced inspections. We havebeen, and anticipate in the future to be, subject to such inspections. Our failure or the failure of a third-party supplier to pass a QSR inspection or tocomply with these, ISO and other applicable regulatory requirements could result in disruption of our operations and manufacturing delays. Our failureto take prompt and satisfactory corrective action in response to an adverse inspection or our failure to comply with applicable standards could result inenforcement actions, including a public warning letter, a shutdown of our manufacturing operations, a recall of our products, civil or criminal penalties,or other sanctions, which would cause our sales and business to suffer. We cannot assure you that the FDA or other governmental authorities wouldagree with our interpretation of applicable regulatory requirements or that we or our third-party suppliers have in all instances fully complied with allapplicable requirements. If we cannot achieve the required level and quality of production, we may need to outsource production or rely on licensing and other arrangementswith third parties who possess sufficient manufacturing facilities and capabilities in compliance with regulatory requirements. Even if we couldoutsource needed production or enter into licensing or other third party arrangements, this could reduce our gross margin and expose us to the risksinherent in relying on others. We also cannot assure you that our suppliers will deliver an adequate supply of required components on a timely basis orthat they will adequately comply with the QSR. Failure to obtain these components on a timely basis would disrupt our manufacturing processes andincrease our costs, which would harm our operating results.We depend on key employees, the loss of whom would adversely affect our business. If we fail to attract and retain employees with the expertiserequired for our business, we may be unable to continue to grow our business. We are highly dependent on the members of our senior management, operations and research and development staff. Our future success willdepend in part on our ability to retain these key employees and to identify, hire and retain additional personnel. Competition for qualified personnel inthe medical device industry, particularly in northern California, is intense, and finding and retaining qualified personnel with experience in our industryis very difficult. We believe there are only a limited37Table of Contentsnumber of individuals with the requisite skills to serve in many of our key positions and we compete for key personnel with other medical equipmentand software manufacturers and technology companies, as well as universities and research institutions. It is increasingly difficult to hire and retainthese persons, and we may be unable to replace key persons if they leave or fill new positions requiring key persons with appropriate experience. Asignificant portion of our compensation to our key employees is in the form of stock option grants. A prolonged depression in our stock price couldmake it difficult for us to retain our employees and recruit additional qualified personnel. We do not maintain, and do not currently intend to obtain, keyemployee life insurance on any of our personnel. If we fail to hire and retain personnel in key positions, we may be unable to continue to grow ourbusiness successfully.If we do not effectively manage our growth, our business may be significantly harmed. The number of our employees increased from 194 as of June 30, 2005 to 451 as of June 30, 2010. In order to implement our business strategy, weexpect continued growth in our employee and infrastructure requirements, particularly as we expand our manufacturing and research and developmentcapacities in connection with, among other things, our Strategic Alliance Agreement with Siemens AG. To manage our growth, we must expand ourfacilities, augment our management, operational and financial systems, hire and train additional qualified personnel, scale-up our manufacturing capacityand expand our marketing and distribution capabilities. Our manufacturing, assembly and installation process is complex and occurs over many months,and we must effectively scale this entire process to satisfy customer expectations and changes in demand. We also expect to increase the number of salesand marketing personnel as we expand our business. Further, to accommodate our growth and compete effectively, we will be required to improve ourinformation systems. We cannot be certain that our personnel, systems, procedures and internal controls will be adequate to support our futureoperations. If we cannot manage our growth effectively, our business will suffer.Any failure in our physician training efforts could result in lower than expected product sales and potential liabilities. A critical component of our sales and marketing efforts is the training of a sufficient number of physicians to properly utilize the CyberKnifesystem. We rely on physicians to devote adequate time to learn to use our products. If physicians are not properly trained, they may misuse orineffectively use our products. This may result in unsatisfactory patient outcomes, patient injury and related liability or negative publicity which couldhave an adverse effect on our product sales.Changes in interpretation or application of generally accepted accounting principles may adversely affect our operating results. We prepare our financial statements to conform with GAAP. These principles are subject to interpretation by the Financial Accounting StandardsBoard, American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the Securities and Exchange Commissionand various other regulatory or accounting bodies. A change in interpretations of, or our application of, these principles can have a significant effect onour reported results and may even affect our reporting of transactions completed before a change is announced. Additionally, as we are required to adoptnew accounting standards, our methods of accounting for certain items may change, which could cause our results of operations to fluctuate from periodto period. For example, due to the significance of the software component of the CyberKnife system, we are currently bound by the software revenuerecognition rules for our business. The Company anticipates adopting ASU 2009-13 and ASU 2009-14 in fiscal 2011 and is currently assessing theimpact of the adoption of ASU 2009-13 or ASU 2009-14 on the Company's consolidated financial statements. The application of different types ofaccounting principles and related potential changes may make it more difficult to compare our financial results from quarter to quarter, and the tradingprice of our common stock could suffer or become more volatile as a result.38Table of ContentsAs a strategy to assist our sales efforts, we may offer extended payment terms, which may potentially result in higher DSO and greater paymentdefaults. We offer longer or extended payment terms for qualified customers in some circumstances. As of June 30, 2010, customer contracts with extendedpayment terms of more than one year amounted to less than 4% of our accounts receivable balance. While we qualify customers to whom we offerlonger or extended payment terms, their financial positions may change adversely over the longer time period given for payment. This may result in anincrease in payment defaults, which would affect our net earnings. Also, longer or extended payment terms have and may in the future result in anincrease in our days sales outstanding, or DSO.Our ability to raise capital in the future may be limited, and our failure to raise capital when needed could prevent us from executing our growthstrategy. While we believe that our existing cash and short-term and long-term investments will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for at leastthe next 12 months, the timing and amount of our working capital and capital expenditure requirements may vary significantly depending on numerousfactors, including:•Market acceptance of our products; •The need to adapt to changing technologies and technical requirements; •The existence of opportunities for expansion; and •Access to and availability of sufficient management, technical, marketing and financial personnel. If our capital resources are insufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements, we may seek to sell additional equity securities or debt securities orobtain other debt financing, which could be difficult or impossible in the current economic and capital markets environments. The sale of additionalequity securities or convertible debt securities would result in additional dilution to our stockholders. We have not made arrangements to obtainadditional financing, and we cannot assure that financing, if required, will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all.We may attempt to acquire new businesses, products or technologies, or enter into collaborations or strategic alliances, and if we are unable tosuccessfully complete these acquisitions or to integrate acquired businesses, products, technologies or employees, we may fail to realize expectedbenefits or harm our existing business. Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to expand our product offerings and grow our business in response to changing technologies,customer demands and competitive pressures. In some circumstances, we may determine to do so through the acquisition of complementary businesses,products or technologies, or through collaborating with complementary businesses, rather than through internal development. The identification ofsuitable acquisition or alliance candidates can be difficult, time consuming and costly, and we may not be able to successfully complete identifiedacquisitions or alliances. Other companies may compete with us for these strategic opportunities. Furthermore, even if we successfully complete anacquisition or alliance, we may not be able to successfully integrate newly acquired organizations, products or technologies into our operations, and theprocess of integration could be expensive, time consuming and may strain our resources, and we may not realize the expected benefits of anyacquisition, collaboration or strategic alliance. Furthermore, the products and technologies that we acquire or with respect to which we collaborate maynot be successful, or may require significantly greater resources and investments than we originally anticipated. In addition, we may be unable to retainemployees of acquired companies, or retain the acquired company's customers, suppliers, distributors or other partners who are our competitors or whohave close relationships with our competitors. Consequently, we may not achieve anticipated benefits of the acquisitions or alliances which could harmour existing business. In addition, future acquisitions or alliances could result in39Table of Contentspotentially dilutive issuances of equity securities or the incurrence of debt, contingent liabilities or expenses, or other charges such as in-processresearch and development, any of which could harm our business and affect our financial results or cause a reduction in the price of our common stock.We may face numerous risks in connection with our strategic alliance with Siemens AG. In June of 2010, we entered into a Strategic Alliance Agreement with Siemens AG, or the Alliance Agreement, pursuant to which (1) we grantedSiemens certain distribution rights to our CyerKnife systems, (2) Siemens agreed to incorporate certain Accuray technology into certain of its linearaccelerator products, the combined products being known as the Cayman Products, and (3) created a research and development relationship betweenAccuray and Siemens for the pursuit and implementation of other potential collaboration opportunities in the future. There can be no assurance that thestrategic alliance with Siemens AG will be successful or that the economic terms of the Alliance Agreement will ultimately prove to be favorable to us.We are not able to control the amount and timing of resources that Siemens will devote to the development, sales or marketing of the Cayman Products,the distribution of CyberKnife systems, or to future collaboration opportunities. Our own business may be disrupted, and we may have to divertattention from our other research and development activities, in order to satisfy our obligations under the Alliance Agreement. We may incur costs inexcess of the consideration to be paid to us by Siemens. Even if Siemens successfully completes the development of the Cayman Products, the CaymanProducts may not receive the regulatory approvals necessary to be marketed and sold. Failure to successfully develop, market and sell the CaymanProducts, failure of Siemens to distribute the CyberKnife system, and the failure of Accuray and Siemens to successfully collaborate on futureopportunities could negatively impact our stock price and our future business and financial results.Our liquidity could be adversely impacted by adverse conditions in the financial markets. At June 30, 2010, we had cash and cash equivalents of $45.4 million. These available cash and cash equivalents are held in accounts managed bythird party financial institutions and consist of invested cash and cash in our operating accounts. The invested cash is invested in interest bearing fundsmanaged by third party financial institutions. These funds invest in direct obligations of the government of the United States. To date, we haveexperienced no loss or lack of access to our invested cash or cash equivalents; however, we can provide no assurances that access to our invested cashand cash equivalents will not be impacted by adverse conditions in the financial markets. At any point in time, we also have funds in our operating accounts that are with third party financial institutions that exceed the Federal DepositInsurance Corporation ("FDIC") insurance limits. While we monitor daily the cash balances in our operating accounts and adjust the cash balances asappropriate, these cash balances could be impacted if the underlying financial institutions fail or become subject to other adverse conditions in thefinancial markets. To date we have experienced no loss or lack of access to cash in our operating accounts.Our operations are vulnerable to interruption or loss due to natural disasters, epidemics, terrorist acts and other events beyond our control,which would adversely affect our business. Our manufacturing facility is located in a single location in Sunnyvale, California. We do not maintain a backup manufacturing facility, so wedepend on our current facility for the continued operation of our business. In addition, we conduct a significant portion of other activities includingadministration and data processing at facilities located in the State of California which has experienced major earthquakes in the past, as well as othernatural disasters. We do not carry earthquake insurance. In the event of a major earthquake or other disaster affecting our facilities, it could significantlydisrupt our operations, delay or prevent product manufacture and shipment for the time required to repair, rebuild or replace our manufacturing facilities,which could be lengthy, and result in large expenses to40Table of Contentsrepair or replace the facilities. Likewise, events such as widespread blackouts could have similar negative impacts.Risks Related to the Regulation of our Products and BusinessHealthcare reform legislation could adversely affect demand for our products, our revenue and our financial condition. Healthcare costs have risen significantly over the past decade. There have been and continue to be proposals by legislators, regulators, and third-party payors to keep these costs down. Certain proposals, if passed, may impose limitations on the amounts of reimbursement available for our productsfrom governmental agencies or third-party payors. These limitations could have a negative impact on the demand for our products and services, andtherefore on our financial position and results of operations a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations. On March 23, 2010, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act was signed into law, and on March 30, 2010, the Health Care and EducationReconciliation Act of 2010 was signed into law. Together, the two measures make the most sweeping and fundamental changes to the U.S. health caresystem since the creation of Medicare and Medicaid. The Health Care Reform laws include a large number of health-related provisions to take effectover the next four years, including expanding Medicaid eligibility, requiring most individuals to have health insurance, establishing new regulations onhealth plans, establishing health insurance exchanges, requiring manufacturers to report payments or other transfers of value made to physicians andteaching hospitals, modifying certain payment systems to encourage more cost-effective care and a reduction of inefficiencies and waste and includingnew tools to address fraud and abuse. Effective in 2013, there will be a 2.3% excise tax on the sale of certain medical devices. In addition, various healthcare reform proposals have also emerged at the state level. We cannot predict the exact effect newly enacted laws or anyfuture legislation or regulation will have on us. However, the implementation of new legislation and regulation may lower reimbursements for ourproducts, reduce medical procedure volumes and adversely affect our business, possibly materially. In addition, the enacted excise tax may materiallyand adversely affect our operating expenses and results of operations.Modifications, upgrades and future products related to the CyberKnife system or new indications may require new FDA 510(k) clearances orpremarket approvals, and such modifications, or any defects in design or manufacture may require us to recall or cease marketing the CyberKnifesystem until approvals or clearances are obtained. The CyberKnife system is a medical device that is subject to extensive regulation in the United States by local, state and the federal government,including by the FDA. The FDA regulates virtually all aspects of a medical device's design, development, testing manufacturing, labeling, storage,record keeping, reporting, sale, promotion, distribution and shipping. Before a new medical device, or a new use of or claim for an existing product, canbe marketed in the United States, it must first receive either premarket approval or 510(k) clearance from the FDA, unless an exemption exists. Eitherprocess can be expensive and lengthy. The FDA's 510(k) clearance process usually takes from three to twelve months, but it can last longer. Theprocess of obtaining premarket approval is much more costly and uncertain than the 510(k) clearance process and it generally takes from one to threeyears, or even longer, from the time the application is filed with the FDA. Despite the time, effort and cost, there can be no assurance that a particulardevice will be approved or cleared by the FDA through either the premarket approval process or 510(k) clearance process. Even if we are grantedregulatory clearances or approvals, they may include significant limitations on the indicated uses of the product, which may limit the market for thoseproducts.41Table of Contents Medical devices may be marketed only for the indications for which they are approved or cleared. The FDA also may change its policies, adoptadditional regulations, or revise existing regulations, each of which could prevent or delay premarket approval or 510(k) clearance of our device, orcould impact our ability to market our currently cleared device. We are also subject to medical device reporting regulations which require us to report tothe FDA if our products cause or contribute to a death or a serious injury, or malfunction in a way that would likely cause or contribute to a death or aserious injury. We also are subject to Quality System and Medical Device Reporting regulations, which regulate the manufacturing and installation andalso require us to report to the FDA if our products cause or contribute to a death or serious injury, or malfunction in a way that would likely cause orcontribute to a death or serious injury. Our products are also subject to state regulations and various worldwide laws and regulations. A component of our strategy is to continue to upgrade the CyberKnife system. Upgrades previously released by us required 510(k) clearancebefore we were able to offer them for sale. We expect our future upgrades will similarly require 510(k) clearance; however, future upgrades may besubject to the substantially more time consuming and uncertain premarket approval process. If we were required to use the premarket approval processfor future products or product modifications, it could delay or prevent release of the proposed products or modifications, which could harm ourbusiness. The FDA requires device manufacturers to make their own determination of whether or not a modification requires an approval or clearance;however, the FDA can review a manufacturer's decision not to submit for additional approvals or clearances. Any modification to an FDA approved orcleared device that would significantly affect its safety or efficacy or that would constitute a major change in its intended use would require a newpremarket approval or 510(k) clearance. We cannot assure you that the FDA will agree with our decisions not to seek approvals or clearances forparticular device modifications or that we will be successful in obtaining 510(k) clearances for modifications. We have obtained 510(k) clearances for the CyberKnife system for the treatment of tumors anywhere in the body where radiation is indicated. Wehave made modifications to the CyberKnife system in the past and may make additional modifications in the future that we believe do not or will notrequire additional approvals or clearances. If the FDA disagrees and requires us to obtain additional premarket approvals or 510(k) clearances for anymodifications to the CyberKnife system and we fail to obtain such approvals or clearances or fail to secure approvals or clearances in a timely manner,we may be required to cease manufacturing and marketing the modified device or to recall such modified device until we obtain FDA approval orclearance and we may be subject to significant regulatory fines or penalties. In addition, even if the CyberKnife system is not modified, the FDA and similar governmental authorities in other countries in which we marketand sell our products have the authority to require the recall of our products in the event of material deficiencies or defects in design or manufacture. Agovernment mandated recall, or a voluntary recall by us, could occur as a result of component failures, manufacturing errors or design defects, includingdefects in labeling and user manuals. There were no recalls during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010. We cannot ensure that the FDA will not requirethat we take additional actions to address problems that resulted in previous recalls. A full list of recalls is available on the FDA website. Any recallcould divert management's attention, cause us to incur significant expenses, harm our reputation with customers, negatively affect our future sales andbusiness, require redesign of the CyberKnife system, and harm our operating results. In these circumstances, we may also be subject to significantenforcement action. If any of these events were to occur, our ability to introduce new or enhanced products in a timely manner would be adverselyaffected, which in turn would harm our future growth.42Table of ContentsWe must obtain and maintain regulatory approvals in international markets in which we sell, or seek to sell, our products. If we do not obtain andmaintain the necessary international regulatory approvals, we will not be able to market and sell our products in foreign countries. In order for us to market and sell the CyberKnife system internationally, either through direct sales personnel or through distributors, we mustobtain and maintain regulatory clearances applicable to the countries and regions in which we are selling, or are seeking to sell, our products. Theseregulatory approvals and clearances, and the process required to obtain and maintain them, vary substantially among international jurisdictions, and canbe time consuming, expensive and uncertain, which can delay our ability to market products in those countries. In some jurisdictions, we rely on ourdistributors to manage the regulatory process and we are dependent on their ability to do so effectively. For example, our regulatory approval in Japanwas suspended for a period of twelve months during 2003 as a result of a failure of our former distributor to coordinate product modifications andobtain necessary regulatory clearances in a timely manner. As a result, the CyberKnife system was recalled in Japan and our former Japanese distributorwas told to stop selling the CyberKnife system. In response, we retained a regulatory consultant who was not affiliated with our former Japanesedistributor and worked with the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare and applied for, and received, approval to sell an updated version ofthe CyberKnife system under the name of CyberKnife II in Japan. By working with a new distributor, Chiyoda Technol Corporation, we were able tobegin distributing the CyberKnife II system in 2004 with no probationary period. In the event that we are unable to obtain and maintain, or are undulydelayed in obtaining, regulatory clearances for the CyberKnife system, including new clearances for system upgrades and use of the system anywhere inthe body, in international markets we have entered or desire to enter, or if a clearance or approval includes significant limitations on the indicated uses ofthe product, our international sales could fail to grow or decline. Within the European Union, we are required under Medical Device Directive to affix the Conformité Européene, or CE, mark on our products inorder to sell the products in member countries of the EU. This conformity to the applicable directives is done through self declaration and is verified byan independent certification body, called a Notified Body, before the CE mark can be placed on the device. Once the CE mark is affixed to the device,the Notified body will regularly audit us to ensure that we remain in compliance with the applicable European laws or directives. CE markingdemonstrates that our products comply with the laws and regulations required by the European Union countries to allow free movement of trade withinthose countries. If we cannot support our performance claims and/or demonstrate compliance with the applicable European laws and directives, we loseour CE mark, which would prevent us from selling our products within the European Union. Under the Pharmaceutical Affairs Law in Japan, an import approval, or shonin, must be obtained from the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare,or MHLW, for our products. Before issuing approvals, MHLW examines the application in detail with regard to the quality, efficacy, and safety of theproposed medical device. The shonin is granted once MHLW is content with the safety and effectiveness of the medical device. The time required forapproval varies. A delay in approval could prevent us from selling our products in Japan, which could impact our ability to generate revenue and harmour business. In addition, we are subject to a variety of environmental laws regulating our manufacturing operations and the handling, storage, transport anddisposal of hazardous materials, which laws impose compliance costs on our business and can also result in liability. For example, we are in the processof updating the way our products are built such that they will be compliant with the Restriction of the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electricaland Electronic Equipment Regulations 2008, or the RoHS Regulations, upon their effectiveness. The RoHS Regulations implement EU Directive2002/95 which bans the placing on the EU market of new electrical and electronic equipment containing more43Table of Contentsthan agreed levels of lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyl (PBB) and polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE) flameretardants.Future legislative or regulatory changes to the healthcare system may affect our business. Even if third-party payors provide adequate coverage and reimbursement for the CyberKnife procedure, adverse changes in third-party payors'general policies toward reimbursement could preclude market acceptance for our products and materially harm our sales and revenue growth. In theUnited States, there have been, and we expect there will continue to be, a number of legislative and regulatory changes and proposals to change thehealthcare system, and some could involve changes that significantly affect our business. In addition, certain federal regulatory changes occur at leastannually. In April 2008, at the time CMS published final 2009 Medicare inpatient reimbursement rates, CMS issued final rules implementing significantamendments to the regulations under the federal Ethics in Patient Referrals Act, which is more commonly known as the Stark Law, with an effectivedate of October 1, 2009. These regulations, among other things, impose additional limitations on the ability of physicians to refer patients to medicalfacilities in which the physician has an ownership interest for treatment. Among other things, the regulations provide that leases of equipment betweenphysician owners that may refer patients and hospitals must be on a fixed rate, rather than a per use, basis. Physician owned entities have increasinglybecome involved in the acquisition of medical technologies, including the CyberKnife system. In many cases, these entities enter into arrangements withhospitals that bill Medicare for the furnishing of medical services, and the physician owners are among the physicians who refer patients to the entity forservices. The regulations limit these arrangements and could require the restructuring of existing arrangements between physicians owned entities andhospitals and may also discourage physicians from participating in the acquisition and ownership of medical technologies. As a result of the finalizationof these regulations, some existing CyberKnife system operators may have to modify or restructure their corporate or organizational structures. Inaddition, certain existing customers that planned to open CyberKnife centers in the United States involving physician ownership could also have torestructure. Accordingly, these regulations could reduce the attractiveness of medical technology acquisitions, including CyberKnife system purchases,by physician-owned joint ventures or similar entities. As a result, these regulations could have an adverse impact on our product sales and therefore onour business and results of operations. On August 3, 2010, the FDA released for public comment two internal working group reports with numerous recommendations (1) to improve the510(k) process and (2) to utilize science in regulatory decision making in ways that encourage innovation yet maintain predictability. Comments are duein 60 days and the FDA is targeting the implementation of or setting timelines for the implementation of "non-controversial" recommendations by theend of the year. At the same time, the FDA acknowledges that the recommendations are preliminary and no decisions have been made on specificchanges to pursue. Nevertheless, we anticipate significant changes will result in the way 510(k) programs will operate and the data requirements,including clinical data, to obtain 510(k) clearance or PMA approval. We cannot predict what effect these reforms will have on our ability to obtain510(k) clearances or PMA approvals in a timely manner or the effect on our business. On June 9 and 10, 2010, the FDA held a public meeting entitled "Device Improvements to Reduce the Number of Under-doses, Over-doses, andMisaligned Exposures from Therapeutic Radiation." The expressed purpose of the meeting was to discuss steps that could be taken by manufacturers ofradiation therapy devices to help reduce misadministration and misaligned exposures. In advance of and at the meeting, the FDA requested comments inthe following areas: features that should be incorporated into radiation therapy devices and their related software, user training, and quality assurancemeasures. It is likely that the Agency will use the information gleaned at this meeting to revise the standards and requirements for designing,manufacturing and marketing devices such as ours,44Table of Contentscreating uncertainty in the current regulatory environment around our current products and development of future products. Future legislative or policyinitiatives directed at reducing costs could be introduced at either the federal or state level. We cannot predict what healthcare reform legislation orregulations, if any, will be enacted in the United States or elsewhere, what impact any legislation or regulations related to the healthcare system that maybe enacted or adopted in the future might have on our business, or the effect ongoing uncertainty about these matters will have on the purchasingdecisions of our customers.We are required to comply with federal and state "fraud and abuse" law, and if we are unable to comply with such laws, we could face substantialpenalties and we could be excluded from government healthcare programs, which would adversely affect our business, financial condition andresults of operations. We are directly or indirectly through our customers, subject to various federal, state and foreign laws pertaining to healthcare fraud and abuse.These laws which directly or indirectly affect our ability to operate our business primarily include, but are not limited to, the following:•The federal Anti-Kickback Statute, which prohibits persons from knowingly and willfully soliciting, offering, receiving or providingremuneration, directly or indirectly, in cash or in kind, to induce either the referral of an individual, or furnishing or arranging for a goodor service, for which payment may be made under federal healthcare programs such as Medicare and Medicaid; •State law equivalents to the Anti-Kickback Statute, which may not be limited to government reimbursed items; •The Ethics in Patient Referral Act of 1989, also known as the Stark Law, which prohibits, subject to certain exceptions, physicianreferrals of Medicare and Medicaid patients to an entity providing certain "designated health services" if the physician or an immediatefamily member has any financial relationship with the entity. The Stark Law also prohibits the entity receiving the referral from billingfor any good or service furnished pursuant to an unlawful referral; •State law equivalents to the Stark Law, which may provide even broader restrictions and require greater disclosures than the federal law; •The federal False Claims Act, which prohibits the knowing filing or causing the filing of a false claim or the knowing use of falsestatements to obtain payment from the federal government; and •Similar laws in foreign countries where we conduct business. The following arrangements with purchasers and their agents have been identified by the Office of the Inspector General of the Department ofHealth and Human Services as ones raising potential risk of violation of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute:•Discount and free good arrangements that are not properly disclosed or accurately reported to federal healthcare programs; •Product support services, including billing assistance, reimbursement consultation and other services specifically tied to support of thepurchased product, offered in tandem with another service or program (such as reimbursement guarantee) that confers a benefit to thepurchaser; •Educational grants conditioned in whole or in part on the purchase of equipment, or otherwise inappropriately influenced by sales andmarketing considerations; •Research funding arrangements, particularly post-market research activities, that are linked directly or indirectly to the purchase ofproducts, or otherwise inappropriately influenced by sales and marketing considerations; and45Table of Contents•Other offers of remuneration to purchasers that is expressly or impliedly related to a sale or sales volume, such as "prebates" and"upfront payment," other free or reduced-price goods or services, and payments to cover costs of "converting" from a competitor'sproducts, particularly where the selection criteria for such offers vary with the volume or value of business generated. We have various arrangements with physicians, hospitals and other entities which implicate these laws. For example, physicians who own ourstock also provide medical advisory and other consulting and personal services. Similarly, we have a variety of different types of arrangements with ourcustomers. For example, our shared ownership program entails the provision of our CyberKnife system to our customers under a deferred paymentprogram, where we generally receive the greater of a fixed minimum payment or a portion of the revenues of services. Included in the fee we charge forthe placement and shared ownership program are a variety of services, including physician training, educational and marketing support, generalreimbursement guidance and technical support. In the past, we have also provided loans to our customers. We also provide research grants to customersto support customer studies related to, among other things, our CyberKnife systems. Certain of these arrangements do not meet Anti-Kickback Statutesafe harbor protections, which may result in increased scrutiny by government authorities having responsibility for enforcing these laws. If our past or present operations are found to be in violation of any of the laws described above or other similar governmental regulations to whichwe or our customers are subject, we may be subject to the applicable penalty associated with the violation, including significant civil and criminalpenalties, damages, fines, imprisonment and exclusion from the Medicare and Medicaid programs. The impact of any such violations may lead tocurtailment or restructuring of our operations, which could adversely affect our ability to operate our business and our financial results. The risk of ourbeing found in violation of these laws is increased by the fact that many of these laws are open to a variety of interpretations. Any action against us forviolation of these laws, even if we successfully defend against it, could cause us to incur significant legal expenses, divert our management's attentionfrom the operation of our business and damage our reputation. If enforcement action were to occur, our reputation and our business and financialcondition may be harmed, even if we were to prevail or settle the action. Similarly, if the physicians or other providers or entities with which we dobusiness are found to be non-compliant with applicable laws, they may be subject to sanctions, which could also have a negative impact on ourbusiness.If we are found to have violated laws protecting the confidentiality of patient health information, we could be subject to civil or criminal penalties,which could increase our liabilities and harm our reputation or our business. There are a number of federal and state laws protecting the confidentiality of certain patient health information, including patient records, andrestricting the use and disclosure of that protected information. In particular, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has promulgatedpatient privacy rules under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA. These privacy rules protect medical records andother personal health information by limiting their use and disclosure, giving individuals the right to access, amend and seek accounting of their ownhealth information and limiting most uses and disclosures of health information to the minimum amount reasonably necessary to accomplish theintended purpose. Although we are not a covered entity under HIPAA, we have entered into agreements with certain covered entities under which weare considered to be a "business associate" under HIPAA. As a business associate, we are required to implement policies, procedures and reasonableand appropriate security measures to protect individually identifiable health information we receive from covered entities. Our failure to protect healthinformation received from customers could subject us to liability and adverse publicity, and could harm our business and impair our ability to attractnew customers.46Table of Contents As a participant in the healthcare industry, we are also subject to extensive laws and regulations protecting the privacy and integrity of patientmedical information, including privacy and security standards required under HIPAA. The HIPAA privacy standard was recently amended by theHealth Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act (HITECH), enacted as part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of2009. HITECH significantly increases the civil money penalties for violations of patient privacy rights protected under HIPAA. Furthermore, as ofFebruary 2010, Business Associates who have access to patient health information provided by hospitals and healthcare providers are now directlysubject to HIPAA, including a new enforcement scheme and inspection requirements. Certain governmental agencies, such as the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the Federal Trade Commission, have the authorityto protect against the misuse of consumer information by targeting companies that collect, disseminate or maintain personal information in an unfair ordeceptive manner. We are also subject to the laws of those foreign jurisdictions in which we sell the CyberKnife system, some of which currently havemore protective privacy laws. If we fail to comply with applicable regulations in this area, our business and prospects could be harmed.Risks Related to Our Common StockThe price of our common stock is volatile and may continue to fluctuate significantly, which could lead to losses for stockholders. The trading prices of the stock of smaller high-technology companies can experience extreme price and volume fluctuations. These fluctuationsoften have been unrelated or out of proportion to the operating performance of these companies. Our stock price has experienced periods of volatility.Broad market fluctuations may also harm our stock price. Any negative change in the public's perception of the prospects of companies that employsimilar technology or sell into similar markets could also depress our stock price, regardless of our actual results. Factors affecting the trading price of our common stock include:•Regulatory developments related to manufacturing, marketing or sale of the CyberKnife system; •Economic changes and overall market volatility; •Political uncertainties; •Changes in product pricing policies; •Variations in our operating results; •Changes in our operating results as a result of problems with our internal controls; •Announcements of technological innovations, new services or service enhancements, strategic alliances or significant agreements by usor by our competitors; •Recruitment or departure of key personnel; •Changes in the estimates of our operating results or changes in recommendations by any securities analyst that elects to follow ourcommon stock; •Market conditions in our industry, the industries of our customers and the economy as a whole; •Sales of large blocks of our common stock; and •Changes in accounting principles or changes in interpretations of existing principles, which could affect our financial results.47Table of ContentsSubstantial sales of our common stock by our stockholders, including sales pursuant to 10b5-1 plans, could depress our stock price regardless ofour operating results. If our existing stockholders sell a large number of shares of our common stock or the public market perceives that existing stockholders might sellshares of common stock, including sales pursuant to 10b5-1 plans, the market price of our common stock could decline significantly. These sales mightalso make it more difficult for us to sell equity securities at a time and price that we deem appropriate.Our directors, executive officers and major stockholders own approximately 42.6% of our outstanding common stock as of July 30, 2010, whichcould limit our ability to influence the outcome of key transactions, including changes of control. As of July 30, 2010, our directors, executive officers, and current holders of 5% or more of our outstanding common stock, held, in the aggregate,approximately 42.6% of our outstanding common stock. This concentration of ownership may delay, deter or prevent a change of control of ourcompany and will make some transactions more difficult or impossible without the support of these stockholders.We have implemented anti-takeover provisions that could discourage or prevent a takeover, even if an acquisition would be beneficial in theopinion of our stockholders. Provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us, even if doing so would bebeneficial in the opinion of our stockholders. These provisions include:•Authorizing the issuance of "blank check" preferred stock that could be issued by our board of directors to increase the number ofoutstanding shares and thwart a takeover attempt; •Establishing a classified board of directors, which could discourage a takeover attempt; •Prohibiting cumulative voting in the election of directors, which would limit the ability of less than a majority of stockholders to electdirector candidates; •Limiting the ability of stockholders to call special meetings of stockholders; •Prohibiting stockholder action by written consent and requiring that all stockholder actions be taken at a meeting of our stockholders; and•Establishing advance notice requirements for nominations for election to the board of directors or for proposing matters that can be actedupon by stockholders at stockholder meetings. In addition, Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law may discourage, delay or prevent a change of control of our company.Generally, Section 203 prohibits stockholders who, alone or together with their affiliates and associates, own more than 15% of the subject companyfrom engaging in certain business combinations for a period of three years following the date that the stockholder became an interested stockholder ofsuch subject company without approval of the board or 662/3% of the independent stockholders. The existence of these provisions could adverselyaffect the voting power of holders of common stock and limit the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our commonstock.We have not paid dividends in the past and do not expect to pay dividends in the future. We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our capital stock. We currently intend to retain all future earnings for the operation andexpansion of our business and, therefore, do not anticipate declaring or paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. The payment of dividends willbe at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on our results of operations, capital requirements, financial condition, prospects,contractual arrangements, and other factors our board of directors may48Table of Contentsdeem relevant. If we do not pay dividends, a return on a stockholders' investment will only occur if our stock price appreciates.Item 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS None.Item 2. PROPERTIES Facilities We currently lease approximately 177,000 square feet of product development, manufacturing and administrative space in three buildings inSunnyvale, California. The manufacturing building is approximately 50,000 square feet and is leased to us until December 2011. Our headquartersbuilding, which is approximately 74,000 square feet, is leased to us until May 31, 2015. We currently occupy an additional building, which isapproximately 53,000 square feet, but we have negotiated the termination of the lease of that building, or the Old Building, and entered into a lease for adifferent building, or the New Building, on the same campus. The New Building is approximately 40,000 square feet, The lease term for the NewBuilding will commence following completion of certain improvements to it and will expire on May 31, 2015. The lease term for the Old Building willexpire on the later of September 30, 2010 or the day preceding the commencement of the lease for the New Building. We have the right to renew thelease term of our headquarters office buildings for two five-year terms upon prior written notice and the fulfillment of certain conditions. We also lease approximately 25,000 square feet of development and manufacturing space in Mountain View, California. We subleaseapproximately 1,350 square feet of this space. The sublease term is through September 2010. This facility is leased to us until September 2010. Inaddition, we maintain offices in: Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; Miami, Florida; France; China; Japan; Spain; India; Singapore; Russia; Germany; Turkeyand the United Kingdom. We believe our current facilities are adequate to meet our current needs, but additional space, including additional radiation-shielded areas in whichsystems can be assembled and tested, will be required in the future to accommodate anticipated increases in manufacturing needs.Item 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS On July 22, 2009, a securities class action lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California against the Companyand certain of its current and former directors and officers. On August 7, 2009 and August 9, 2009, two securities class action complaints, both similarto the one filed on July 22, 2009, were filed against the same defendants in the same court. These three actions were consolidated. The consolidatedcomplaint generally alleges that the Company and the individual defendants made false or misleading public statements regarding the Company'soperations and seek unspecified monetary damages and other relief. On August 5, 2009, a shareholder derivative lawsuit was filed in Santa Clara County Superior Court against certain of the Company's current andformer officers and directors. The Company is named as a nominal defendant. The complaint generally alleges that the defendants breached theirfiduciary duties by misrepresenting and/or failing to disclose material information regarding the Company's business and financial performance, andseeks unspecified monetary damages and other relief. On February 25, 2010, the plaintiff dismissed the action without prejudice. On November 24, 2009, a shareholder derivative lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California against certainof the Company's current and former officers and directors. The Company is named as a nominal defendant. Three other shareholder derivative lawsuitswere filed in the same court on November 30, 2009, December 1, 2009 and March 16, 2010. These49Table of Contentsactions have been consolidated. The amended consolidated complaint generally alleges that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties bymisrepresenting and/or failing to disclose material information regarding the Company's business and financial performance, and that certain defendantsalso violated federal and California securities laws. The amended consolidated complaint seeks unspecified monetary damages and other relief. On September 3, 2009, Best Medical International, Inc. ("Best Medical") filed a lawsuit against the Company in the US District Court for theWestern District of Pennsylvania claiming the Company induced certain individuals to leave the employment of Best Medical and join the Company inorder to gain access to Best Medical's confidential information and trade secrets. They are seeking monetary damages and other relief. At this time theCompany does not have enough information to estimate what, if any, financial impact this claim will have. On August 6, 2010, Best Medical filed an additional lawsuit against the Company in the U.S. District Court for the Western District ofPennsylvania, claiming the Company has infringed U.S. Patent No. 5,596,619, a patent that Best Medical alleges protects a method and apparatus forconformal radiation therapy. They are seeking declaratory and injunctive relief as well as unspecified compensatory and treble damages and other relief.At this time the Company does not have enough information to estimate what, if any, financial impact this claim will have. As of June 30, 2010, the Company has not recorded any liabilities for the above referenced lawsuits as a loss is not considered probable orestimable. From time to time we are involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business.Item 4. (Removed and Reserved) PART II Item 5.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS You should read the following discussion of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with the financialstatements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this report. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans,estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause orcontribute to these differences include those discussed below and elsewhere in this report on Form 10-K, particularly in "Risk Factors."Overview We have developed what we believe to be the first and only commercially available intelligent robotic radiosurgery system, the CyberKnife system,designed to treat solid tumors anywhere in the body as an alternative to traditional surgery. The CyberKnife system combines continuous image-guidance technology with a compact linear accelerator that has the ability to move in three dimensions according to the treatment plan. Our image-guidance technology enables the system to continuously acquire images to track a tumor's location and transmit any position corrections to the roboticarm prior to delivery of each dose of radiation. Our compact linear accelerator ("linac") is a compact radiation treatment device that uses microwaves toaccelerate electrons to create high-energy X-ray beams to destroy the tumor. This combination, which we refer to as intelligent robotics, extends thebenefits of radiosurgery to the treatment of tumors anywhere in the body. The CyberKnife system autonomously tracks, detects and corrects for tumorand patient movement in real-time during the procedure, enabling delivery of precise, high dose radiation typically with sub-millimeter accuracy. TheCyberKnife procedure requires no anesthesia, can be performed on an outpatient basis and allows for the treatment of patients who otherwise would nothave been treated with radiation or who may not have been good candidates for surgery. In addition, the CyberKnife procedure is designed to avoidmany of the potential risks and complications that are associated with other treatment options and is more cost effective than traditional surgery.53 Years Ended June 30, 2010 2009 2008 2007 2006 Selected Operating Data: Number of CyberKnife systems installed per year United States 18 25 19 22 22 International 13 11 12 11 6 Total 31 36 31 33 28 As of June 30, 2010 2009 2008 2007 2006 (in thousands) Consolidated Balance Sheet Data: Cash and cash equivalents $45,434 $36,835 $36,936 $204,830 $27,856 Short-term investments $99,881 $64,634 $85,536 $— $— Long-term investments $— $57,252 $37,014 $— $— Deferred cost of revenue $11,102 $21,917 $43,391 $61,231 $56,588 Total assets $263,184 $274,386 $295,004 $332,109 $138,623 Short-term debt $— $— $— $— $— Deferred revenue $47,393 $75,882 $114,175 $154,257 $149,664 Working capital (deficit) $152,048 $80,083 $87,744 $148,522 $(3,783) Redeemable convertible preferred stock $— $— $— $— $27,504 Stockholders' equity (deficiency) $170,076 $153,902 $130,763 $125,443 $(80,855)Table of Contents In July 1999, we obtained 510(k) clearance from the United States Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, to market the CyberKnife system forthe treatment of tumors and certain other conditions in the head, neck and upper spine. In August 2001, we received FDA clearance for the treatment oftumors anywhere in the body where radiation treatment is indicated. In September 2002, we received a CE mark for the sale of the CyberKnife systemin Europe. CE mark is an international symbol that represents adherence to certain essential principles of safety and effectiveness mandated in theEuropean Medical Device Directive. We received approval for full-body treatment in Japan in June 2008; previously our CyberKnife regulatoryapprovals in Japan were limited to treatment for indications in the head and neck. The CyberKnife system has also been approved for various indicationsin Korea, Taiwan, China and other countries. To date, our CyberKnife system has been used to deliver more than 95,000 patient treatments. In the United States, we sell to customers, including hospitals and stand-alone treatment facilities, directly through our sales organization. Outsidethe United States, we sell to customers in over 80 countries directly and through distributors. We have sales and service offices in Paris, France, HongKong, China, Tokyo, Japan, Madrid, Spain, New Delhi, India, Singapore, Moscow, Russia, Munich, Germany, Istanbul, Turkey and London, UK. Asof June 30, 2010, we had 45 employees in our sales organization. Our CyberKnife systems are either sold to our customers or placed with our customers pursuant to our shared ownership program. As of June 30,2010, we had 206 CyberKnife systems installed at customer sites, including 203 sold and three pursuant to our shared ownership program. Of the 206systems installed, 132 are in the Americas, 45 are in Asia and 29 are in Europe. In addition to selling the CyberKnife system to customers through direct sales, we offer alternative arrangements to customers who may not havethe financial means to purchase a CyberKnife system. For example, under our shared ownership program, we retain title to the CyberKnife system whilethe customer has use of the system. Our shared ownership contracts generally require a minimum monthly payment from the customer, and we mayearn additional revenue through the use of the system at the site. Generally, minimum monthly payments are equivalent to the revenue generated fromtreating three to four patients per month, and any revenue received from additional patients is shared between us and the customer. We expect tocontinue to offer our shared ownership program to new customers. The shared ownership program typically has a term of five years, during which thecustomer has the option to purchase the system at pre-determined prices. We manufacture and assemble our CyberKnife systems at our manufacturing facility in Sunnyvale, California. We purchase major components,including the robotic manipulator, the treatment table or robotic couch, the magnetron, which creates the microwaves for use in the linear accelerator, theimaging cameras and the computers, from outside suppliers, some of which are single source. Our reliance on single source suppliers could harm ourability to meet demand for our products in a timely and cost effective manner. However, in most cases, if a supplier were unable to deliver thesecomponents, we believe that we would be able to find other sources for these components subject to any regulatory qualifications, if required. Wewould, however, likely suffer some delays as a result of qualifying any new supplier. We manufacture certain other electronic and electrical subsystems,including the linear accelerator. We then assemble and integrate these components with our proprietary software and perform testing prior to shipment tocustomer sites. We generate revenue from sales of products and by providing ongoing services and upgrades to customers following installation of theCyberKnife system. The current United States price for the CyberKnife system typically includes initial training, installation, and a one-year warranty.We also offer optional hardware and software when and if available, technical enhancements and upgrades to the CyberKnife system, as part of ourmultiyear service plans. Currently, our most comprehensive service plan is our Diamond Elite multiyear service plan, or Diamond plan. Under ourDiamond plan,54Table of Contentscustomers are eligible to receive up to two upgrades per year, when and if available. Prior to introducing our Diamond plan, we offered our Platinumservice plan which provided specified future upgrade obligations. For systems sold with a Platinum service plan, all revenue, including CyberKnifeproduct and service revenue, is deferred until all upgrade obligations have been satisfied and then is recognized ratably over the remaining life of thePlatinum service contract. As of June 30, 2010 and 2009, 150 out of 160 and 123 out of 147 of our customers that purchased service plans hadpurchased non-Platinum service plans. The CyberKnife procedure is currently covered and reimbursed by Medicare and other governmental and non-governmental third-party payors.Medicare coverage currently exists in the hospital outpatient setting and in the freestanding clinic setting. For calendar year 2010, the national unadjustedaverage Medicare payment rates under Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System, or HCPCS, are $3,572 under code G0339, the billing code forthe first treatment, and $2,488 under code G0340, the billing code for each of the second through fifth treatments. Payment for the freestanding clinicsetting is governed by the final Medicare Physician Fee Schedule. For 2010, payment for CyberKnife procedures in the freestanding clinic settings forfirst and subsequent treatments is set by local Medicare carriers and rates may vary from low payment to a payment rate exceeding the hospitaloutpatient payment rates. We will continue to evaluate the impact that the health care legislation bill, HR 4872, and the effect the implementation of itsstatutes may have on Medicare reimbursement rates. In late June and early July of 2010 Medicare published its proposed rules for hospital outpatient services, for physicians, and services performedin the freestanding center setting. After a 60 day comment period Medicare will review and analyze the comments. Once Medicare's analysis is completethe final rules will be published, which we anticipate to occur near the end of October 2010. The proposed rates in the hospital outpatient setting reflect a4.4% decrease for G0339 and a 1.1% increase for G0340. Proposed payment in the freestanding clinic setting for the first and subsequent treatmentscontinues to be set by local Medicare carriers and rates may vary from low payment to a payment rate exceeding the hospital outpatient payment rates. In addition to Medicare reimbursement to hospitals and clinics, physicians receive reimbursement for their professional services in the hospitaloutpatient setting and the freestanding clinic setting. Payment to physicians is based on the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule, and payment amounts areupdated on an annual basis. For 2010, Medicare adjusted reimbursement rates for the Current Procedural Terminology, or CPT, code series describingthe surgeon's role in the delivery of CyberKnife cranial and spinal procedures beginning with 61796 and 63620 to varying degrees. For example, therate for treating five simple cranial lesions was reduced by less than one percent, and the rate for treating one complex cranial lesion was increased bymore than 40%. For 2011 Medicare has proposed adjustments to reimbursement rates for the CPT code series describing the surgeon's role in thedelivery of CyberKnife cranial and spinal procedures beginning with 61796 and 63620 to varying degrees. These adjustments vary from a 27% increaseto a 33% increase. Radiosurgery procedures in other anatomies require other surgeons to bill unlisted CPT codes with no assigned payment rates. Payment rates forunlisted codes are set by the local Medicare carrier and rates may vary from no payment to rates equivalent to the comparable CPT rates for the seriesbeginning with 61796 and 63620. Coding for other physicians (primarily radiation oncologists) involved in the delivery of CyberKnife treatmentincreased by one percent. Medicare did not propose changes for 2011 to payment rates in other anatomies not described by the cranial and spinalprocedure codes. In November of 2009, we announced the introduction of the CyberKnife VSI system, which allows physicians to perform conventionallyfractioned robotic image guided intensity-modulated radiation therapy, or Robotic IMRT, in addition to Robotic Stereotactic Radiosurgery procedures.Reimbursement for Robotic IMRT is expected to be similar to conventional IMRT. Medicare 201155Table of Contentsproposed physician fee schedule rules reflect an 11% increase in 2011 for the treatment delivery code used to report IMRT services delivered by theCyberKnife VSI system. Our future success will depend in large part on our ability to maintain and increase our position in the market. To compete successfully, we willneed to continue to demonstrate the advantages of our products and technologies over alternative procedures, products and technologies, and convincephysicians and other healthcare decision makers of the advantages of our products and technologies. Our business and sales and installation cycle doesnot immediately create recognizable revenue. As such, we must invest in sales and marketing activities generally 1 to 2 years before we are able togenerate revenue from those activities. Our ability to achieve and maintain long-term profitability is largely dependent on our ability to successfullymarket and sell the CyberKnife system and to control our costs and effectively manage our growth.Financial OperationsSales and Installation Cycle The CyberKnife system has a long sales and installation cycle because it is a major capital purchase for our typical customer and requires theapproval of senior management at purchasing institutions. The sales and installation cycle is typically 1 to 2 years in duration and involves multiplesteps. The cycle begins with customer meetings with sales and products specialists, and ends upon resolution of all contingencies and either uponshipment, if a customer is responsible for installation, or upon installation by us. Prior to installation, a purchasing institution must typically obtain aradiation device installation permit, and in some cases, a certificate of need or CON, both of which must be granted by state and local governmentbodies and can add time to the cycle. Recently, as a result of healthcare cost considerations and sensitivity to the cost of major capital equipment items,some state CON boards have become more stringent in the evaluation of CON applications. This trend, if it continues, may make the CON processmore protracted and uncertain. In addition, the purchasing institution must build a radiation shielded facility or upgrade an existing facility to house theCyberKnife system. We generally receive a deposit at the time the purchase agreement is entered into, or shortly thereafter, an additional payment priorto shipment and the remaining balance for the sale of the CyberKnife system after delivery and installation. The customer also typically selects a serviceplan at the time of signing a CyberKnife system purchase agreement and enters into the service plan agreement prior to installation of the system. Upon installation, we typically recognize the CyberKnife system sale price less the fair value of at least one year of service and training. Werecognize the fair value of the first year of service as revenue pro rata over the twelve months following installation and training as delivered. Inaddition, if the customer has purchased our Diamond or Emerald service plan and assuming annual renewals, we would receive payment at thebeginning of each of the second, third, fourth and fifth years of the multiyear service plan and recognize that revenue pro rata over each year.Legacy Service Plans Prior to introducing our Diamond plan, we offered a Platinum Elite multiyear service plan, or Platinum plan. This legacy service plan wasstructured so that we have an obligation to deliver two upgrades per year over the course of the multiyear service plan. If we fail to deliver the upgrades,our customers are entitled to receive a refund of up to $100,000 for each upgrade not offered. To date, no refunds have been required pursuant to thePlatinum plan. Beginning in November 2005, we phased out offering this legacy service plan to new customers.56Table of Contents The Platinum plan obligates us to deliver up to two upgrades per year during the term of the contract. We have not established fair value for thosefuture obligations; hence, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP, requires that we cannot begin to recognize any of therevenue derived from the sale of the CyberKnife system or the associated service plan until all upgrade obligations have been fulfilled. Therefore, thepayments made by our customers who have our legacy Platinum plan are categorized as deferred revenue. Once we fulfill all upgrade obligations withrespect to a specific Platinum plan, we ratably recognize the revenue from the sale of the CyberKnife system and the Platinum plan over the remaininglife of the contract. As of the end of June 2010 we had installed the final upgrades on all systems sold under Platinum agreements. We anticipate that wewill satisfy our final obligations under the remaining Platinum service plans and recognize Platinum service revenue of approximately $5 million infiscal 2011. Customers who purchased Platinum plans may purchase additional upgrades as optional extras prior to the delivery of all originally specifiedupgrade obligations. Such additional upgrades are considered elements of the original arrangement and associated revenues are deferred until the earlierof: (1) delivery of all elements (upgrade obligations), or (2) establishment of vendor specific objective evidence, or VSOE, of fair value for allundelivered elements. Sales of additional upgrades after delivery of all specified upgrade obligations, as stated in the original contract, are consideredseparate arrangements and are recognized once all revenue recognition criteria applicable to the separate arrangements are met. As of June 30, 2010 we had fulfilled all upgrade obligations with respect to the sale of systems in connection with Platinum plans.Warranty All customers purchasing a CyberKnife system receive up to a two year warranty. In circumstances where we have VSOE of fair value for allundelivered elements, we recognize the CyberKnife system purchase price minus the fair value of support services upon installation, if we areresponsible for providing installation, or delivery, and we recognize the value of the support ratably over the corresponding period followinginstallation.Shared Ownership Program Revenue We recognize revenue monthly from our shared ownership program that consists of a minimum monthly payment. We also recognize usage-basedrevenue in excess of the monthly minimum based on usage reports from our customers. We recognized revenue from our shared ownership program of$1.9 million, $3.7 million and $10.3 million for the years ended June 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008. The decrease in shared ownership revenue fromJune 30, 2010 compared to June 30, 2009 and 2008 is due to the buyout of a large portion of the placement units throughout the previous fiscal years.In limited cases, we received nonrefundable upfront payments from shared ownership program customers which are treated as deferred revenue andrecognized over the term of the contract. The CyberKnife system shared ownership systems are recorded within property and equipment and are depreciated over their estimated life ofseven years. Depreciation and warranty expense attributable to shared ownership systems are recorded within cost of shared ownership program as theyare incurred.International Sales Revenue We sell our products internationally through a combination of direct sales force and a network of distributors. We have strategically developeddistributor relationships to serve our customers. Many of our distributors are responsible for installation and service support.57Table of Contents For international sales, we recognize revenue once we have met all of our obligations associated with the purchase agreement, other than forundelivered service elements for which we have VSOE of fair value. In situations where we are directly responsible for installation, we recognizerevenue once we have installed the CyberKnife system and have confirmed performance against specification. For sales through distributors, werecognize revenue upon shipment provided we have received proof of sell-through to the end user from the distributor and assuming all of ourremaining obligations have been satisfied. Net revenue from international customers was $74.2 million, $62.0 million and $67.8 million for the yearsended June 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008. We believe the increase in international sales for the year ended June 30, 2010 is due to a number of factors,including the following: increased focus on international markets through regionalization, different impact of the economic downturn by country, greatersignificance of government affiliated hospital customers, and growth in select country markets.Backlog Backlog consists of the sum of deferred revenue, future un-invoiced payments that our customers are contractually committed to make, signed,non-contingent CyberKnife system sale agreements that meet the detailed criteria set forth below, service plans and minimum payment requirementsassociated with our shared ownership program. In previous fiscal years, we reported both contingent and non-contingent CyberKnife system saleagreements as backlog, however, as previously disclosed, we refined our definition of backlog in fiscal year 2010 to enhance the usefulness of thisinformation in analyzing and building models of our business. Beginning July 1, 2009, in order for a CyberKnife system sale agreement to be countedas backlog under the refined definition, it must meet the following criteria:•The contract is signed and properly executed by both the customer and Accuray; •The contract is non-contingent—it either has cleared all its contingencies or contains no contingencies when signed; •Accuray has received a deposit or a letter of credit, or the sale is a direct channel sale to a government entity; •The specific end customer site has been identified by the customer in the written contract or written amendment; and •Less than 2.5 years have passed since the contract met all the criteria above. Included in customers' agreements to purchase a CyberKnife is an option to select the type and term of service coverage that they desire. Backlogincludes the value of this service coverage selected by customers in their original agreement to purchase a CyberKnife system. Before installation of theCyberKnife is complete and service commences the customer must complete and sign a separate service agreement for service coverage (i.e. Diamond orEmerald service). If at the time of signing the service agreement a customer selects a different type of service than the option selected in the CyberKnifesystem purchase agreement, our backlog is adjusted to reflect the service agreement the customer signed. At June 30, 2010, our backlog under our refined definition was approximately $374.1 million. Of total backlog under the refined definition,$131.9 million represented CyberKnife system sales at June 30, 2010, and $242.2 million represented revenue from service plans and other recurringrevenues at June 30, 2010. We anticipate that this backlog will be recognized over the next five years as installations occur, upgrades are delivered andservices are provided. We have not provided comparisons of our backlog in fiscal 2010 to our backlog from fiscal 2009. Given the change in ourbacklog definition from fiscal 2009 to fiscal 2010, such comparisons would not be meaningful, as the definitions of backlog were based on differentcriteria.58Table of Contents Although our backlog includes only contractual agreements from our customers, we cannot make assurances that we will convert it into recognizedrevenue due to factors outside our control including without limitation, changes in customers' needs, changes in reimbursement, changes to regulatoryrequirements, or other cancellation of orders.Results of OperationsOverview Our results of operations are divided into the following components: Net revenue. Our net revenue consists primarily of product revenue (revenue derived primarily from the sale of CyberKnife systems and the saleof linacs for other uses), shared ownership program revenue (revenue generated from our shared ownership program), services revenue (revenuegenerated from sales of post contract support service plans, installation and training) and other revenue (revenue from specialized upgrade services forunits previously sold in Japan, other specialized services and other non-medical products). Deferred Revenue—Platinum Multiyear Service Plans. We are required to defer all of the revenue associated with our legacy multiyearservice plans, including our Platinum plan, until we have satisfied all of the specified obligations related to the delivery of upgrades to the CyberKnifesystem during the life of the service plan. This includes deferring revenue for the cash received for the purchase of the CyberKnife system and multiyearservice plans until we have delivered all upgrades which the customer is eligible to receive. Once we have satisfied our obligations for delivery ofupgrades under the plan, we recognize revenue ratably over the remaining life of the service plan. We have not offered the Platinum service plan to newcustomers since we phased it out when we introduced our Diamond plan in November 2005. Prior to fiscal 2009 we had installed the final upgradesand recognized all revenue on systems sold under Gold agreements. As of the end of June 2010 we had installed the final upgrades on all systems soldunder Platinum agreements. We recognized approximately $28.9 million of revenue related to these Platinum agreements in fiscal 2010. We anticipatethat we will satisfy our final obligations under the remaining Platinum service plans and recognize Platinum service revenue of approximately $5 millionin fiscal 2011. Cost of revenue. Cost of revenue consists primarily of material, labor and overhead costs. In future periods, we expect cost of revenue mayfluctuate from quarter to quarter depending on system configurations ordered by our customers and overall revenue mix. Selling and marketing expenses. Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of costs for personnel and costs associated withparticipation in medical conferences, physician symposia, and advertising and promotional activities. We expect marketing expenses may fluctuate fromquarter to quarter due to the timing of major marketing events, such as significant trade shows. Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses consist primarily of activities associated with our productdevelopment, regulatory and clinical study arrangements. General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation and related costs for finance, in-house legal, and human resources, and external expenses related to accounting, legal and other consulting fees. Other income, net. Other income, net consists primarily of interest earned on our cash and cash equivalents and investments, unrealized losseson our long-term trading securities, net of unrealized gains on our put option, foreign currency transaction gains and losses, losses on fixed assetdisposals, and state and local sales and use tax fines and penalties.59Table of ContentsYears ended June 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008Net revenue Total net revenue for the year ended June 30, 2010 decreased $12.0 million from the year ended June 30, 2009. During the year ended June 30,2010, 31 CyberKnife systems were installed, of which 30 were sold and one was attributable to our shared ownership program, compared to 36systems installed, including 35 sold and one attributable to our shared ownership program during the year ended June 30, 2009. Not including our revenue recognized for systems sold under our Platinum plan, we recognized $128.7 million of product revenue in fiscal 2010,associated with 38 CyberKnife systems sold. By comparison, during fiscal 2009, we recognized product revenue of $123.7 million associated with41 CyberKnife systems, which included 39 units sold and two units purchased out of our shared ownership program. The increase in fiscal 2010 is dueprimarily to the remaining deferred revenue for units sold in prior periods recognized in fiscal year 2010 in accordance with our revenue recognitionpolicy and an increase in upgrades and accessories sold. Excluding revenue recognized for systems sold under our Platinum plan, we recognized non-Platinum service revenue of $61.2 million for the yearended June 30, 2010, which increased approximately $19.3 million from the year ended June 30, 2009, due to the continued growth in our installedbase under service plans. As of June 30, 2010 and 2009, 150 out of 160 and 123 out of 147 of our customers that had purchased service plans,respectively, had purchased non-Platinum service plans. We recognized $28.9 million of revenue in fiscal 2010 from systems sold under our Platinum plan, $12.6 million for product revenue and$16.3 million for service revenue. We recognized $60.1 million of revenue in fiscal 2009 from systems sold under our Platinum plan, $35.6 million forproduct revenue and $24.5 million for service revenue. By the end of June 2010 we had satisfied all upgrade delivery obligations on the 30 units soldunder our Platinum plan. Once all upgrade delivery obligations have been satisfied, revenue is recognized over the remaining term of the contract serviceterm. Shared ownership program revenue for the year ended June 30, 2010 decreased approximately $1.8 million from the year ended June 30, 2009,primarily due to the sale of one CyberKnife system at the end of fiscal year 2009 that had been in our shared ownership program. We anticipate revenuefrom our shared ownership program will increase slightly in future periods due to the installation of one new shared ownership system in fiscal year2010. Revenue from upgrade services in Japan, classified as "Other revenue" in our consolidated statements of operations for the year ended June 30,2010, decreased approximately $3.4 million from the year ended June 30, 2009 due to a decrease in upgrade services provided to our installed systemsin Japan. Total net revenue for the year ended June 30, 2009 increased $23.2 million from the year ended June 30, 2008. During the year ended June 30,2009, 36 CyberKnife systems were installed, of which 35 were sold and one was attributable to our shared ownership program, compared to 31systems installed,60 Years Ended June 30, (Dollars in thousands) 2010 2009 2008 Products $141,297 $159,257 $152,374 Shared ownership program 1,890 3,651 10,262 Services 77,504 66,344 38,808 Other 934 4,346 8,937 Net revenue $221,625 $233,598 $210,381 Table of Contentsincluding 27 units sold and four attributable to our shared ownership program during the year ended June 30, 2008. Excluding revenue recognized for systems sold under our Platinum plan, we recognized $123.7 million of product revenue in fiscal 2009,associated with 41 CyberKnife systems, which included 39 units sold and two units purchased out of our shared ownership program. By comparison,during fiscal 2008, we recognized product revenue of $130.9 million associated with 46 CyberKnife systems, which included 34 units sold and 12 unitspurchased out of our shared ownership program. The decrease in fiscal 2009 is due primarily to the sale in fiscal 2008 of twelve CyberKnife systemsthat had been in our shared ownership program for an aggregate purchase price of $23.7 million offset partially by the increase from 34 to 38 units soldnot related to our shared ownership program. Excluding revenue recognized for systems sold under our Platinum plan, we recognized non-Platinum service revenue of $41.9 million for the yearended June 30, 2009, which increased approximately $15.5 million from the year ended June 30, 2008, due to the continued growth in our installedbase under service plans. As of June 30, 2009 and 2008, 123 and 77 of our customers, respectively, had purchased non-Platinum service plans. We recognized $60.1 million of revenue in fiscal 2009 from systems sold under our Platinum plan, $35.6 million for product revenue and$24.5 million for service revenue. We recognized $34.0 million of revenue in fiscal 2008 from systems sold under our Platinum plan, $21.5 million forproduct revenue and $12.5 million for service revenue. By the end of June 2009 we had satisfied all upgrade delivery obligations on 29 of the 30 unitssold under our Platinum plan. Once all upgrade delivery obligations have been satisfied, revenue is recognized over the remaining term of the contractservice term. Shared ownership program revenue for the year ended June 30, 2009 decreased approximately $6.6 million from the year ended June 30, 2008,primarily due to the sale of 12 CyberKnife systems through the year ended June 30, 2008 that had been in our shared ownership program. Revenue from upgrade services in Japan, classified as "Other revenue" in our consolidated statements of operations for the year ended June 30,2009, decreased approximately $4.6 million from the year ended June 30, 2008 due to a decrease in upgrade services provided to our installed systemsin Japan.Gross profit Gross profit as a percentage of net revenue for the year ended June 30, 2010 decreased from the year ended June 30, 2009. This decrease is due toa change in the mix of revenue sources as well as changes in the gross profit margin for these revenue sources. Services revenue, with a gross profitmargin lower than for product revenue, increased as a percentage of total net revenues due to the continued installation of new systems and a decline inproduct revenues. In addition product margins declined due to a number of factors including a trend towards higher functionality configurations whichcarry higher costs. The increase in service revenue margins was attributable to a greater number of systems on a service contract and lower replacementparts consumption over the prior year.

Gross profit as a percentage of net revenue for the year ended June 30, 2009 decreased slightly from the year ended June 30, 2008. This decreaseis attributable to an increase in services revenue as a percentage of total net revenues, which have higher costs of revenue as compared to productrevenue and decrease in shared ownership revenue as a percentage of total net revenues, which have lower costs of revenue as compared to productrevenue. The increase in service revenue margins was attributable mainly to an increase in platinum service margins due to high margins on fivePlatinum systems that were fully recognized during the year ended June 30, 2009, in accordance with the final upgrades being installed at these sitesduring the final period of the service contract term, compared to one site that was fully recognized during the year ended June 30, 2008. Sharedownership program revenue as a percentage of net revenues for the year ended June 30, 2009 decreased primarily due to the sale of two CyberKnifesystems that had been in our shared ownership program during the year ended June 30, 2009 compared to the sale of 12 CyberKnife systems that hadbeen in our shared ownership program during the year ended June 30, 2008.Selling and marketing expenses Selling and marketing expenses for the year ended June 30, 2010 decreased $11.3 million from the year ended June 30, 2009. The decrease wasprimarily attributable to a decrease of $4.6 million in salaries, benefits and stock-based compensation as we reduced headcount in selling and marketingby approximately 12% year over year. We increased efforts to control spending in fiscal year 2010 resulting in the reduction of $2.2 million in travel,entertainment and meetings, $1.7 million in advertising and trade show expenses, $573,000 of other outside services and $690,000 in allocated facilityexpenses as a result of the reduction in sales and marketing headcount. Sales commissions decreased $823,000 due to lower total sales and amounts thatwere expensed for employees terminated during the year ended June 30, 2009 Selling and marketing expenses for the year ended June 30, 2009 increased $2.8 million from the year ended June 30, 2008. The increase wasprimarily attributable to an increase of $1.8 million in sales commissions due to an increase in sales and previously paid amounts that were expensed foremployees terminated during the year ended June 30, 2009, an increase of $468,000 in expenses primarily related to a contribution made to theCyberKnife Society, and an increase of $462,000 in severance related charges recorded as a result of the Workforce Alignment Plan, or 2009 Plan,completed in January 2009, to reduce headcount and improve efficiency and productivity.Research and development expenses62 Years Ended June 30, (Dollars in thousands) 2010 2009 2008 Selling and marketing $34,187 $45,493 $42,726 % of net revenue 15.4% 19.5% 20.3% Years Ended June 30, (Dollars in thousands) 2010 2009 2008 Research and development $31,523 $35,992 $32,880 % of net revenue 14.2% 15.4% 15.6%Table of Contents Research and development expenses for the year ended June 30, 2010 decreased $4.5 million from the year ended June 30, 2009. The decreasewas primarily attributable to a decrease of $1.4 million in salaries and benefits and $340,000 in stock-based compensation related to lower headcount infiscal year 2010. We increased efforts to control spending in 2010 resulting in the reduction of $1.6 million in contract labor and consulting fees and$699,000 in materials. Additionally, we incurred $301,000 of severance expense in fiscal year 2009 related to the 2009 Plan, which we did not incur infiscal year 2010. Research and development expenses for the year ended June 30, 2009 increased $3.1 million from the year ended June 30, 2008. The increase wasprimarily attributable to an increase of $1.4 million in spending on clinical development studies primarily for lung and prostate, an increase of$1.4 million in costs related to additional quality assurance and technical publications activities, and an increase of $287,000 in severance related chargesrecorded under the Plan.General and administrative expenses General and administrative expenses for the year ended June 30, 2010 decreased by $751,000 from the year ended June 30, 2009. The decreasewas primarily attributable to a decrease of $1.3 million in severance and $1.9 million in stock-based compensation as a result of the 2009 Plan. Weincreased efforts to control spending in 2010 resulting in the reduction of $1.2 million in contract labor, recruiting cost and rent. Further, bad debtexpense decreased $837,000 year over year primarily due to resolution of prior year reserves. The decrease in general and administrative expense waspartially offset by a $4.3 million increase in consulting services primarily associated with increased legal and tax fees driven mainly by the strategicalliance negotiations with Siemens and the shareholder lawsuit. General and administrative expenses for the year ended June 30, 2009 increased $3.9 million from the year ended June 30, 2008. The increase wasprimarily attributable to an increase of $2.4 million in severance benefits due to employee separation costs and costs recorded under the Plan, an increaseof $428,000 in outside consulting services related mainly to expenses recorded for Morphormics, Inc., or Morphormics, our variable interest entitywhich we are required to consolidate in our financial results subsequent to the acquisition in July 2008, an increase of $883,000 in legal fees andaccounting, audit and tax fees mainly as a result of the investigation of the handling and accounting for certain inventory items conducted during the yearended June 30, 2009, and an increase of $444,000 in bad debt expense.Other income, net Other income, net for the year ended June 30, 2010 decreased $3.1 million from the year ended June 30, 2009. We recorded $1.8 million ofinterest income in fiscal year 2010 which represented a $2.1 million decline from 2009 due to a decrease in both the average daily balances kept ininterest bearing accounts and the interest rates earned on amounts kept in those accounts during the year. Interest income was offset by $1.7 million inforeign currency transaction loss resulting from the decline in the Euro's international conversion rate.63 Years Ended June 30, (Dollars in thousands) 2010 2009 2008 General and administrative $35,472 $36,223 $32,280 % of net revenue 16.0% 15.5% 15.3% Years Ended June 30, (Dollars in thousands) 2010 2009 2008 Other income, net $1 $3,082 $7,184 % of net revenue 0.0% 1.3% 3.4%Table of Contents Other income, net for the year ended June 30, 2009 decreased $4.1 million from the year ended June 30, 2008 primarily due to a decrease of$3.8 million in interest income due to a decrease in both the average daily balances kept in interest bearing accounts and the interest rates earned onamounts kept in those accounts during the year ended June 30, 2009 compared to the year ended June 30, 2008 and net unrealized losses of $319,000related to the change in fair value of our trading securities.Provision for income taxes The provision for income taxes for the year ended June 30, 2010 decreased $59,000 from the year ended June 30, 2009, resulting in a $4,000 netbenefit. In fiscal 2010, we recorded an increase in foreign taxes of $430,000 as compared to the prior year as the result of changes in our jurisdictionalmix of income. We also recorded a decrease in federal and state taxes of $489,000 as compared to the prior year due to benefits we recognized as theresult of the enactment of The Worker, Homeownership, and Business Assistance Act of 2009, which permits some relief from federal alternativeminimum tax. As of June 30, 2010, we had federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of $45.2 million and $35.2 million, respectively. These federal andstate net operating loss carryforwards are available to offset against future taxable income, if any, in varying amounts and will begin to expire in 2019for federal and 2012 for state purposes, respectively. Such net operating loss carryforwards include tax benefits from employee option exercises inexcess of the stock-based compensation expense that has been recognized for those awards in accordance with ASC 718-10. We will recordapproximately $7.4 million as a credit to additional paid in capital if and when such excess benefits are ultimately realized. We also had federal and stateresearch and development tax credit carryforwards of approximately $3.6 million and $4.7 million, respectively. If not utilized, the federal tax creditcarryforwards will begin to expire in 2019, while the state tax credits have no expiration date. In addition, among other matters, realization of the entiredeferred tax asset is dependent on our ability to generate sufficient taxable income prior to the expiration of the carryforwards. Due to the inconsistenthistory of net operating income as adjusted for permanent differences, we cannot conclude that the net domestic deferred tax assets will more likely thannot be realized. Accordingly, we have recorded a full valuation allowance against our domestic net deferred tax assets. At June 30, 2010, there was no provision for U.S. income tax for undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries as it is currently our intentionto reinvest these earnings indefinitely in operations outside the U.S. If repatriated, these earnings could result in a tax expense at the current U.S. Federalstatutory tax rate of 35%, subject to available net operating losses and other factors. Subject to limitation, tax on undistributed earnings may also bereduced by foreign tax credits that may be generated in connection with the repatriation of earnings.Stock-Based Compensation Expense Stock-based compensation expense was recorded net of estimated forfeitures for the years ended June 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008 such that expensewas recorded only for those stock-based awards that are expected to vest. For the years ended June 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008 we recorded$10.4 million, $15.5 million and $16.9 million respectively, of stock-based compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, for stock options, 2007Employee Stock Purchase Plan, or ESPP, shares issued and RSUs granted to employees.64 Years Ended June 30, (Dollars in thousands) 2010 2009 2008 Provision for income taxes $(4)$55 $867 % of net revenue 0.0% 0.02% 0.4%Table of Contents As of June 30, 2010, there was approximately $11.1 million, net of estimated forfeitures, of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvestedstock options, ESPP options and restricted stock units which we expect to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.24 years.Liquidity and Capital Resources At June 30, 2010, we had $45.4 million in cash and cash equivalents. As we have exercised our put option with UBS, we no longer have anoutstanding line of credit. No other borrowings were outstanding as of June 30, 2010. We believe that we have sufficient cash resources and anticipatedcash flows to continue in operation for at least the next 12 months.Years ended June 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008 Cash Flows From Operating Activities. Net cash used in operating activities was $5.1 million for the year ended June 30, 2010. Our netincome of $2.8 million during fiscal year 2010 was offset by a decrease in deferred revenue, net of deferred cost of revenue, of $18.6 million, anincrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $4.2 million, an increase in accounts receivable of $2.5 million and a decrease in accountspayable of $5.4 million. The decrease in deferred revenue, net of deferred cost of revenue, was primarily a result of the recognition of revenuepreviously deferred for systems sold under our Platinum plan offset partially by differences between invoicing customers for products and services andthe recognition of the invoicing as revenue. The increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets was due to an insurance receivable amountrecorded for insurance claims. Accounts payable decreased as a result of the timing of the receipt of invoices and when payment was made. Positivecash flow from working capital changes includes an increase of $4.4 million of accrued liabilities, which was primarily due to an increase incompensation accruals and taxes payable due to higher profitability compared to the prior fiscal year. Non-cash charges included $10.6 million of stock-based compensation, $0.8 million of charges for write-downs of inventories and loss on disposal of property and equipment, $0.4 million reduction inthe provision for bad debts and $7.1 million of depreciation and amortization. Net cash used in operating activities was $3.7 million for the year ended June 30, 2009. Our net income of $609,000 during fiscal year 2009 wasoffset by an increase in accounts receivable of $2.8 million, a decrease in deferred revenue, net of deferred cost of revenue, of $16.5 million, and anincrease in inventories of $9.7 million. The increase in accounts receivable was primarily a result of the timing difference between the shipment ofproducts and the receipt of customer payment. The decrease in deferred revenue, net of deferred cost of revenue, was primarily a result of therecognition of revenue previously deferred for systems sold under our Platinum plan offset partially by differences between invoicing customers forproducts and services and the recognition of the invoicing as revenue. The increase in inventories was due primarily to an increase in our businessvolume and the increase in our worldwide installed base and associated service inventory requirements. Positive cash flow from working capitalchanges include an increase in accrued liabilities of $4.9 million of which $1.3 million was related to the inventory investigation in the first quarter andthe balance was due to the timing differences between the receipt of goods and service and vendor payments and a decrease in restricted cash of$4.3 million. The decrease in restricted cash is due to the release of amounts related to contracts with customers requiring that deposited cash amountsbe secured via letter of credit until delivery of the CyberKnife unit occurs. Non-cash charges included $15.5 million of stock-based compensation,$2.7 million of charges for write-downs of inventory and $6.7 million of depreciation and amortization expense. Net cash used in operating activities was $22.8 million for the year ended June 30, 2008. Our net income of $5.4 million during fiscal year 2008was offset by an increase in accounts receivable of $23.9 million, a decrease in deferred revenue, net of deferred cost of revenue, of $13.8 million, anincrease in inventories of $10.4 million and an increase of $4.8 million in restricted cash. The increase65Table of Contentsin accounts receivable was primarily a result of the timing difference between the shipment of products and the receipt of customer payment. Thedecrease in deferred revenue, net of deferred cost of revenue, was primarily a result of the timing of differences between invoicing customers underservice contracts and the recognition of revenue over the contractual service period, the continued satisfaction of specified obligations to begin revenuerecognition for units covered by our Platinum plans and the recognition of revenue and cost of revenue for units previously shipped to a distributor inChina. The increase in inventories was due primarily to an increase in our business volume. The increase in restricted cash is due to arrangements incontracts with customers requiring that deposited cash amounts be secured via letter of credit until delivery of the CyberKnife unit occurs. Non-cashcharges included $16.9 million of stock-based compensation and $7.7 million of depreciation and amortization expense. Cash Flows From Investing Activities. Net cash provided by investing activities was $10.5 million for the year ended June 30, 2010 and wasattributable to net marketable security activities of $15.7 million, which consisted of $127.1 million of sales and maturities of marketable securities offsetby $111.4 million in purchases. The net increase in investment activity for the current fiscal year is due to the exercise of the put option with UBS andthe sale of our ARS holdings on June 30, 2010. We used $5.1 million of cash for purchases of property and equipment. Net cash used in investing activities was $2.4 million for the year ended June 30, 2009 and was attributable net marketable security activities of$1.8 million, which consisted of $157.7 million of sales and maturities of marketable securities offset by $155.9 million in purchases. We also used$4.2 million of cash for purchases of property and equipment. Net cash used in investing activities was $128.6 million for the year ended June 30, 2008 and was attributable to net investment of our excess cashand cash equivalents in higher yielding investment accounts of $123.6 million, which consisted of $177.7 million of purchases and $54.1 million ofsales and maturities of marketable securities and $5.0 million of purchases of property and equipment. The increase in investment activity during theyear ended June 30, 2008 is due primarily to the January 2008 investment of proceeds from our initial public offering in February 2007. Purchases ofproperty and equipment in all periods were due to the expansion of our facilities and operations. Cash Flows From Financing Activities. Net cash provided by financing activities was $3.8 million for the year ended June 30, 2010 and wasprimarily attributable to proceeds from the exercise of common stock options and the purchase of common stock under our ESPP. Net cash provided by financing activities was $5.8 million for the year ended June 30, 2009 and was primarily attributable to proceeds from theexercise of common stock options and the purchase of common stock under our ESPP. Net cash used in financing activities was $16.2 million for the year ended June 30, 2008 and was primarily attributable to stock repurchases of$24.0 million, partially offset by proceeds from the exercise of common stock options of $4.4 million and proceeds from our ESPP of $3.0 million.Operating Capital and Capital Expenditure Requirements Our future capital requirements depend on numerous factors. These factors include but are not limited to the following:•Revenue generated by sales of the CyberKnife system, our shared ownership program and service plans; •Costs associated with our sales and marketing initiatives and manufacturing activities; •Facilities, equipment and IT systems required to support current and future operations;66Table of Contents•Rate of progress and cost of our research and development activities; •Costs of obtaining and maintaining FDA and other regulatory clearances of the CyberKnife system; •Effects of competing technological and market developments; and •Number and timing of acquisitions and other strategic transactions. We believe that our current cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for working capital and capitalexpenditures for at least 12 months. If these sources of cash and cash equivalents are insufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements, we may seek tosell additional equity or debt securities or obtain additional credit facilities. The sale of additional equity or convertible debt securities could result indilution to our stockholders. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of debt securities, these securities could have rights senior to thoseassociated with our common stock and could contain covenants that would restrict our operations. Additional financing may not be available at all, or inamounts or on terms acceptable to us. If we are unable to obtain this additional financing, we may be required to reduce the scope of our plannedproduct development and marketing efforts.Contractual Obligations and Commitments The following table is a summary of our non-cancelable contractual cash obligations, net of sublease income as of June 30, 2010:Off Balance Sheet Arrangements We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements.Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our consolidated financial statements, which have beenprepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgmentsthat affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financialstatements, as well as revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. We evaluate our estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base ourestimates on historical experience and on various other factors we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis formaking judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could therefore differmaterially from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Note 2, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," in Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, which is included in Item 8. FinancialStatements and Supplementary Data, describes our significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of our Consolidated FinancialStatements. The methods, estimates and judgments that we use in applying our accounting policies67 Payments due by period Total Less than1 year 1 - 3 years 3 - 5 years More than5 years (in thousands) Operating leases $13,052 $3,590 $7,524 $1,939 $— Sublease income $(57)$(57)$— $— $— Total $12,995 $3,533 $7,524 $1,939 $— Table of Contentsrequire us to make difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates regarding matters that are inherently uncertain. Ourmost critical accounting estimates include:•The valuation of revenue and allowance for sales returns and doubtful accounts, which impacts revenue; •The valuation of inventory, which impacts gross margins; •The estimation and calculation of certain tax liabilities and in the determination of the recoverability of certain deferred tax assets; and •The valuation and recognition of stock-based compensation, which impacts gross margin and operating expenses.Item 7A. QUANTITATIVE & QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK We do not utilize derivative financial instruments, derivative commodity instruments or other market risk sensitive instruments, positions ortransactions.Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk For the year ended June 30, 2010, a number of our sales contracts were denominated in a foreign currency. Based on our exposure as of June 30,2010, a 10% movement in currency rates would result in a gain or loss of $4.3 million. Future fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar may affect theprice competitiveness of our products outside the United States. For direct sales outside the United States, it is likely we will sell in the local currency,which could expose us to additional foreign currency risks, including changes in currency exchange rates. Some of our commissions related to sales ofthe CyberKnife system are payable in Euros. To the extent that management can predict the timing of payments under these or contracts we enter intothat are denominated in foreign currencies, we may engage in hedging transactions to mitigate such risks in the future.Interest Rate Risk At June 30, 2010, we had $45.4 million of cash and cash equivalents and $99.9 million invested in other financial instruments. Our earnings areaffected by changes in interest rates due to the impact those changes have on interest income generated from our cash and investment balances. Webelieve that while the instruments we hold are subject to changes in the financial standing of the issuer of such securities, and except as described below,we are not subject to any material risks arising from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices or othermarket changes that affect market risk sensitive instruments. However, should interest rates increase, the market value of our investments may decline,which could result in a realized loss if we are forced to sell before their scheduled maturity. If overall interest rates had risen by 100 basis points, the fairvalue of our net investment position at June 30, 2010 would have decreased by approximately $0.5 million, assuming consistent levels.Credit Risk Our previously held auction rate securities, or ARS, have been sold as of June 30, 2010 as part of our exercise of our put option. Exercise of thisput option has also eliminated the secured line of credit with UBS. We received $9.9 million on July 1, 2010 as a result of the sale of the ARS. This$9.9 million was in-transit as of June 30, 2010 and therefore was reflected as a short-term receivable (not as cash or short-term available-for-salesecurities) within other current assets on our consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2010.68Table of ContentsItem 8.

Our audits of the basic financial statements included the financial statement schedule listed in the index appearing underItem 15(a)(2). These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is toexpress an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standardsrequire that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. Anaudit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includesassessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statementpresentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of AccurayIncorporated and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2010 and 2009, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in theperiod ended June 30, 2010 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, therelated financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all materialrespects, the information set forth therein. We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), AccurayIncorporated's internal control over financial reporting as of June 30,

The Company designs,develops and sells the CyberKnife system, an image-guided robotic radiosurgery system used for the treatment of solid tumors anywhere in the body. The Company has formed thirteen wholly-owned subsidiaries: Accuray International SARL, located in Geneva, Switzerland, Accuray EuropeSAS, located in Paris, France, Accuray UK Ltd, located in London, United Kingdom, Accuray Asia Limited, located in Hong Kong, SAR, AccurayJapan KK, located in Tokyo, Japan, Accuray Spain, S.L.U., located in Madrid, Spain, Accuray Medical Equipment (India) Private Ltd., located in NewDelhi, India, Accuray Medical Equipment (SEA) Private Limited, located in Singapore, Accuray Medical Equipment (Rus) LLC, located in Moscow,Russia, Accuray Medical Equipment GmbH, located in Munich, Germany, Accuray Tibbi Cihazlar Ve Malzemeler Ithalat Ihracat Anonim Sirketi,located in Istanbul, Turkey, Accuray Mexico SA de CV located in Mexico City, Mexico and Accuray Medical Equipment Canada Ltd. located inVancouver, Canada. The purpose of these subsidiaries is to market and/or service the Company's products in the various countries in which they arelocated.2. Summary of Significant Accounting PoliciesFiscal Year For fiscal years 2009 and 2008, the Company's fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to June 30th, so that in a 52 week period, each fiscalquarter consists of 13 weeks. The additional week in a 53-week year was added to the fourth quarter, making such quarter consist of 14 weeks. Fiscalyears 2009 and 2008 were each comprised of 52 weeks. For ease of presentation purposes, the consolidated financial statements and notes refer toJune 30 as the Company's fiscal year end. Beginning with the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 ("fiscal 2010"), the Company changed its fiscal year endfrom the Saturday closest to June 30, to June 30.Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries and the Company's variable interestentity, Morphormics, Inc. ("Morphormics"). All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.Reclassifications Certain amounts reported in previous periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. The reclassifications did notaffect previously reported revenues, total operating expense, operating income, net income, or stockholders' equity.Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of Americarequires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and relateddisclosures at the date of the financial statements. Key estimates and assumptions made by the75Table of ContentsAccuray IncorporatedNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)Company relate to stock-based compensation, valuation allowances for deferred tax assets, estimate of allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation ofexcess and obsolete inventories, impairment of long-lived assets and goodwill, deferred revenue and deferred cost of revenue and estimates of the fairvalue of certain investments. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.Foreign Currency The Company's international subsidiaries use their local currencies as their functional currencies. For those subsidiaries, assets and liabilities aretranslated at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and income and expense accounts at the previous months ending exchange rate. Resultingtranslation adjustments are excluded from the determination of net income and are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as aseparate component of stockholders' equity. Net foreign currency exchange transaction gains or losses are included as a component of other income, net,in the Company's consolidated statements of operations.Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less on the date of purchase to be cashequivalents. Cash equivalents consist of amounts invested in highly liquid investment accounts and money market accounts and amounted to$1.8 million and $19.5 million at June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Cash and cash equivalent balances denominated in a foreign currency amountedto $20.7 million and $3.4 million at June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.Restricted Cash Restricted cash has historically included amounts deposited as collateral per the terms of contracts with customers requiring that deposited cashamounts be secured via letters of credit until delivery of the CyberKnife unit occurs. The current year restricted cash balance represents funds held toguarantee funding of certain foreign taxes. Restricted cash amounts were $22,000 and $527,000 at June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.Marketable Securities The Company's available-for-sale securities on the consolidated balance sheets include commercial paper, corporate debt and debt issued by U.S.government sponsored enterprises. All marketable securities designated as available-for-sale are reported at estimated fair value, with unrealized gainsand losses recorded in stockholders' equity and included in accumulated other comprehensive income. Realized gains and losses on the sale of available-for-sale marketable securities are recorded in other income, net. The cost of available-for-sale marketable securities sold is based on the specificidentification method. Available-for-sale marketable securities with original maturities greater than approximately three months and remaining maturitiesof one year or less are classified as short-term available-for-sale marketable securities. Available-for-sale marketable securities with remaining maturitiesof greater than one year are classified as long-term available-for-sale marketable securities. The Company has the ability and the intent to hold thesesecurities for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in market value. The Company's trading securities on the consolidated balance sheet for fiscal year 2009 consisted of (i) auction-rate securities ("ARS") that aresecured by pools of student loans guaranteed by state76Table of ContentsAccuray IncorporatedNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)regulated higher education agencies and reinsured by the U.S. Department of Education and (ii) a put option held in respect to these ARS (see Note 4).Changes in the fair value of the Company's trading securities are reported in other income, net.Other-than-Temporary Impairment Assessment The Company regularly reviews all of its investments for other-than-temporary declines in fair value. The review includes but is not limited to(i) the consideration of the cause of the impairment, (ii) the creditworthiness of the security issuers, (iii) the length of time a security is in an unrealizedloss position, and (iv) the Company's positive intent and ability to hold the security for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recoveryin fair value.Fair Value of Financial Instruments The carrying values of the Company's financial instruments including cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, restricted cash, accountsreceivable and accounts payable are approximately equal to their respective fair values due to the relatively short-term nature of these instruments.Concentration of Credit Risk and Other Risks and Uncertainties There were no customers that represented more than 10% of revenue for the years ended June 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008. The followingsummarizes the accounts receivable from customers in excess of 10% of total accounts receivable: Accounts receivable are typically not collateralized. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains reserves forpotential credit losses. Accounts receivable are deemed past due in accordance with the contractual terms of the agreement. Accounts are charged againstthe allowance for doubtful accounts once collection efforts are unsuccessful. Historically, such losses have been within management's expectations. The Company's cash and cash equivalents are mainly deposited with two major financial institutions. At times, deposits in these institutions exceedthe amount of insurance provided on such deposits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes that it is not exposed toany significant risk on these balances. Single source suppliers presently provide the Company with several components. In most cases, if a supplier were unable to deliver thesecomponents, the Company believes that it would be able to find other sources for these components subject to any regulatory qualifications, if required.Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (on a first-in, first-out basis) or market value. Excess and obsolete inventories are written down based onhistorical sales and forecasted demand, as judged77 As ofJune 30, 2010 2009 Customer A — 10%Customer B — 11%Table of ContentsAccuray IncorporatedNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)by management. The Company determines inventory and product costs, which include allocated production overheads, through use of standard costs.Revenue Recognition The Company earns revenue from the sale of products, the operation of its shared ownership program, and the provision of related services, whichinclude installation services, post-contract customer support ("PCS"), and training. The Company records its revenues net of any value added or salestax. From time to time, the Company introduces customers to third party financing organizations. No amounts received from these third party financingorganizations are at risk. The Company recognizes product revenues for sales of the CyberKnife system, optional upgrades, components and replacement parts andaccessories when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, the fee is fixed or determinable, collection of the fee is probable and delivery hasoccurred. Payments received in advance of product shipment are recorded as customer advances and are recognized as revenue or deferred revenueupon product shipment or installation. For arrangements with multiple elements, the Company allocates arrangement consideration to each element based upon vendor specific objectiveevidence ("VSOE") of fair value of the respective elements. VSOE of fair value for each element is based upon the Company's standard rates chargedfor the product or service when such product or service is sold separately or based upon the price established by management having the relevantauthority when that product or service is not yet being sold separately. When contracts contain multiple elements, and VSOE of fair value exists for allundelivered elements, the Company accounts for the delivered elements, principally the CyberKnife system and optional product upgrades, based uponthe residual method. If VSOE of fair value does not exist for all the undelivered elements, all revenue is deferred until the earlier of: (1) delivery of allelements, or (2) establishment of VSOE of fair value for all remaining undelivered elements. The Company assesses the probability of collection based on a number of factors, including past transaction history with the customer and thecredit-worthiness of the customer. The Company generally does not request collateral from its customers. If the Company determines that collection of afee is not probable, the Company will defer the fee and recognize revenue upon receipt of cash. The Company's agreements with customers and distributors generally do not contain product return rights.CyberKnife sales with legacy service plans For sales of CyberKnife systems with PCS arrangements that include specified or committed upgrades for which the Company has not establishedVSOE of fair value, all revenue is deferred. Once all such upgrade obligations have been delivered, all accumulated and deferred revenue is recognizedratably over the remaining life of the PCS arrangement. Sales of additional upgrades as optional extras prior to the delivery of all originally specified upgrade obligations are considered additionalelements of the original arrangement and associated revenues are deferred and accounted for as described above. Sales of additional upgrades afterdelivery of all specified upgrade obligations, as stated in the original contract, are recognized once all revenue recognition criteria applicable to thosearrangements are met.78Table of ContentsAccuray IncorporatedNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)CyberKnife sales with non-legacy service plans The Company sells CyberKnife systems with PCS contracts that only provide for upgrades when and if they become available. The Company hasestablished VSOE of the fair value of PCS in these circumstances. For arrangements with multiple elements that include the CyberKnife system,installation services, training services and a PCS service agreement, the Company recognizes the CyberKnife system and installation services revenuefollowing installation, if the Company is responsible for providing installation, or delivery, and acceptance of the system by application of the residualmethod when VSOE of fair value exists for all undelivered elements in the arrangement, including PCS.Other revenue Other revenue primarily consists of revenue earned on research and development contracts as well the sale of specialized services specificallycontracted to provide current technology capabilities for units previously sold through a distributor into the Japan market. Some upgrade sales includeelements where VSOE of fair value has not been established for the PCS. As a result, for these sales, associated revenues are deferred and recognizedratably over the term of the PCS arrangement, generally four years.PCS and maintenance services Service revenue for providing PCS, which includes warranty services, extended warranty services, unspecified when and if available productupgrades and technical support is deferred and recognized ratably over the service period, generally one year, until no further obligation exists. At thetime of sale, the Company provides for the estimated incremental costs of meeting product warranty if the incremental warranty costs are expected toexceed the related service revenues. Training and consulting service revenues that are not deemed essential to the functionality of the CyberKnife systemare recognized as such services are performed. Costs associated with providing PCS and maintenance services are expensed when incurred, except when those costs are related to units whererevenue recognition has been deferred. In those cases, the costs are deferred and are recognized over the period of revenue recognition.Distributor sales Sales to third party distributors are evidenced by a distribution agreement governing the relationship together with binding purchase orders orsigned quotations on a transaction-by-transaction basis. The Company records revenues from sales of CyberKnife systems to distributors based on asell-through method where revenue is only recognized upon sell-through of the product to the end user customer and once all other revenue recognitioncriteria are met including completion of all obligations under the terms of the purchase order or signed quotation. For sales of product upgrades andaccessories to distributors, revenue is recognized on either a sell-through or sell-in basis, depending upon the terms of the purchase order or signedquotation and once all revenue recognition criteria are met. These criteria require that persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the fees are fixed ordeterminable, collection of the resulting receivable is probable and there is no right of return.79Table of ContentsAccuray IncorporatedNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)Shared ownership program The Company also enters into arrangements under its shared ownership program with certain customers. Agreements under the shared ownershipprogram typically have a term of five years, during which the customer has the option to purchase the system, either at the end of the contractual periodor in advance, at the customer's request, at pre-determined prices. Under the terms of such program, the Company retains title to its CyberKnife system,while the customer has use of the product. The Company generally receives a minimum monthly payment and earns additional revenues from thecustomer based upon its use of the product. The Company may provide unspecified upgrades to the product during the term of each program when andif available. Upfront payments from the customer are deferred and recognized as revenue over the contractual period. Revenues from the sharedownership program are recorded as they become earned and receivable and are included within shared ownership program revenues in the consolidatedstatements of operations. Future minimum revenues under the shared ownership arrangements as of June 30, 2010 are as follows (in thousands): Total usage-based fee revenues included in shared ownership program revenue amounted to $1.6 million, $3.2 million and $8.1 million for theyears ended June 30, 2010, 2009, and 2008, respectively. Under the terms of the shared ownership program, the customer has the option to purchase the CyberKnife system at pre-determined prices basedon the period the system has been in use and considering the lease payments already received. Revenue from such sales is recorded in accordance withthe Company's revenue recognition policy, taking into account the PCS and any other elements that might be sold as part of the arrangement. AtJune 30, 2010, the Company had three systems installed under its shared ownership program. During the years ended June 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008,nil, $3.2 million and $23.7 million, respectively, of revenue was recognized in the consolidated statements of operations for the sale of nil, two andtwelve CyberKnife systems, respectively, that were formerly under the shared ownership program. At June 30, 2010 and 2009, nil and $747,000,respectively, of amounts for extended warranty and training services related to these sold shared ownership units remained recorded as deferredrevenue, and will be recognized over the life of the extended warranty service period and as training service obligations are fulfilled. The CyberKnife systems associated with the Company's shared ownership program are recorded within property and equipment. Effective April 1,2009, the estimated useful life of the Company's placement units was reduced from ten to seven years due to a change in estimated useful life.Depreciation and warranty expenses attributable to the CyberKnife shared ownership systems are recorded within cost of shared ownership program.80Year Ending June 30 2011 756,000 2012 756,000 2013 696,000 2014 and thereafter 1,032,000 Total $3,240,000 Table of ContentsAccuray IncorporatedNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)Long-term manufacturing contracts The Company recognizes revenue and cost of revenue related to long-term manufacturing contracts using contract accounting on the percentage-of-completion method. During the years ended June 30, 2010, 2009, and 2008, contract revenue of $120,000, $2.4 million and $1.0 million, respectively,was recorded with related costs of $131,000, $2.4 million and $943,000, respectively. The Company recognizes any loss provisions from the totalcontract in the period such loss is identified. During the years ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, estimated loss provisions of $11,000 and $97,000,respectively, were recorded. No loss provision was recognized during the year ended June 30, 2008. As of June 30, 2010 and 2009, no costs wererecorded in deferred cost of revenue related to long-term manufacturing contracts.Deferred Revenue and Deferred Cost of Revenue Deferred revenue consists of deferred product revenue, deferred shared ownership program revenue, deferred service revenue and deferred otherrevenue. Deferred product revenue arises from timing differences between the shipment of product and satisfaction of all revenue recognition criteriaconsistent with the Company's revenue recognition policy. Deferred shared ownership program revenue results from the receipt of advance paymentsthat will be recognized ratably over the term of the shared ownership program. Deferred service revenue results from the advance payment for servicesto be delivered over a period of time, usually one year. Service revenue is recognized ratably over the service period. Deferred other revenue resultsprimarily from the Japan upgrade services programs and is due to timing differences between the receipt of cash payments for those upgrades and finaldelivery to the end user customer. Deferred cost of revenue consists of the direct costs associated with the manufacturing of units, direct service costsfor which the revenue has been deferred in accordance with the Company's revenue recognition policies, and deferred costs associated with the Japanupgrade services. Deferred revenue, and associated deferred cost of revenue, expected to be realized within one year are classified as current liabilitiesand current assets, respectively.Customer Advances Customer advances represent payments made by customers in advance of product shipment.Property and Equipment Property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-linemethod over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Leasehold improvements are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the remaining term ofthe lease or the estimated useful life of the asset, whichever is shorter. Machinery and equipment are depreciated over five years. Furniture and fixturesare depreciated over four years. Computer and office equipment are depreciated over three years. Repairs and maintenance costs, which are notconsidered improvements and do not extend the useful life of the property and equipment, are expensed as incurred.Impairment of Long-Lived Assets The Company reviews long-lived assets, including property and equipment, for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstancesindicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. Impairment, if any, is measured as the amount by which the carrying81Table of ContentsAccuray IncorporatedNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)value of a long-lived asset exceeds its fair value. Through June 30, 2010, there have been no such impairment losses.Goodwill and Purchased Intangible Assets Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition cost over the fair value of tangible and identified intangible net assets of businesses acquired.Goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for impairment on an annual basis whenever events and changes in circumstances suggest that the carryingamount may not be recoverable, and written down when impaired. In the first step of the analysis, the Company's assets and liabilities, includingexisting goodwill and other intangible assets, are assigned to the identified reporting units to determine the carrying value of the reporting units. Basedon how the business is managed, the Company has only one reporting unit. If the carrying value of the reporting unit is in excess of its fair value, animpairment may exist, and the Company must perform the second step of the analysis, in which the implied fair value of the goodwill is compared to itscarrying value to determine the impairment charge, if any. The fair value of the reporting unit is determined using the market approach. Under the market approach, the Company estimates the fair value theeach reporting unit based on the Company's closing stock price on the trading day closest to the annual review date multiplied by the outstanding shareson that date. If the estimated fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets assigned to that unit, goodwill is not impairedand no further analysis is required. Through June 30, 2010, there have been no such impairment losses. Purchased intangible assets other thangoodwill, including purchased completed technology and customer contracts, are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful livesunless their lives are determined to be indefinite. Purchased intangible assets are carried at cost, less accumulated amortization. Amortization iscomputed over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets which is typically seven years. Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basisand whenever events and changes in circumstances suggest that the carrying amount may not be recoverable, written down accordingly. To date, nosuch events have occurred and the Company has not recorded any impairment charges.Shipping and Handling The Company's billings for shipping and handling for product shipments to customers are included in cost of products. Shipping and handlingcosts incurred for inventory purchases are also included in cost of products.Software Development Costs Software development costs relating to assets to be sold in the normal course of business are included in research and development and areexpensed as incurred. After technological feasibility is established, material software development costs are capitalized. The capitalized cost is thenamortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated product life, or on the ratio of current revenues to total projected product revenue, whichever isgreater. To date, the period between achieving technological feasibility, which the Company has defined as the establishment of a working model whichtypically occurs when the beta testing commences, and the general availability of such software has been short and software development costsqualifying for capitalization have been insignificant.82Table of ContentsAccuray IncorporatedNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) We have capitalized software development costs relating to internal use software as identified and discussed below at "Note 5. Balance SheetComponents."Advertising Expenses The Company expenses the costs of advertising and promoting its products and services as incurred. Advertising expenses were approximately$0.4 million, $1.8 million and $1.0 million for the years ended June 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.Research and Development Costs Costs related to research, design and development of products are charged to research and development expense as incurred. These costs includedirect salaries, benefits, and other headcount related costs for research and development personnel; costs for materials used in research and developmentactivities; costs for outside services and allocated portions of facilities and other corporate costs. The Company has entered into research and clinicalstudy arrangements with selected hospitals, cancer treatment centers, academic institutions and research institutions worldwide. These agreementssupport the Company's internal research and development capabilities. The Company has also entered into an Agreement with Siemens for research anddevelopment work. Payments earned and received from Siemens will be recorded as contra research and development costs. Refer also to "Note 3.Collaboration Agreement."Stock-Based Compensation The Company accounts for stock-based compensation by measuring and recognizing the fair value of all stock-based payment awards made toemployees based on the estimated grant date fair values, including employee stock options, restricted stock awards and the employee stock basedpurchase plan. The determination of fair value involves a number of significant estimates. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model toestimate the value of employee stock options which requires a number of assumptions to determine the model inputs. These include the expectedvolatility of stock, the expected term of the stock-based payment, the expected risk free rate of interest and dividend yields. As stock-basedcompensation expense is based on awards ultimately expected to vest it has been reduced for estimated forfeitures. Forfeitures are estimated at the timeof grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. As the Company has been operating as a publiccompany for a period of time that is shorter than its estimated expected option life, the Company concluded that its historical price volatility does notprovide a reasonable basis for input assumptions within its Black-Scholes valuation model when determining the fair value of its stock options. As aresult, the Company continues to use the "simplified" method as described under ASC 718. Expected volatility was based on the historical volatility of apeer group of publicly traded companies. Management's estimate of forfeitures is based on historical experience but actual forfeitures could differmaterially as a result of voluntary employee actions which could result in a significant change in future stock-based compensation expense. See "Note 9.Stockholder's Equity" for additional information.83Table of ContentsAccuray IncorporatedNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)Net Income Per Common Share Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period.Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and other dilutivecommon shares outstanding during the period. The potential dilutive shares of the Company's common stock resulting from the assumed exercise ofoutstanding stock options, vesting of restricted stock awards and ESPP shares to be purchased are determined under the treasury stock method. The number of anti-dilutive shares excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share was as follows: The following table sets forth the basic and diluted per share computations:Income Taxes The Company is required to estimate its income taxes in each of the tax jurisdictions in which it operates prior to the completion and filing of taxreturns for such periods. This process involves estimating actual current tax expense together with assessing temporary differences in the treatment ofitems for tax purposes versus financial accounting purposes that may create net deferred tax assets and liabilities. The Company accounts for incometaxes under the asset and liability method, which requires, among other things, that deferred income taxes be provided for temporary differencesbetween the tax bases of the Company's assets and liabilities and their financial statement reported amounts. In addition, deferred tax assets are recordedfor the future benefit of utilizing net operating losses, research and development credit carryforwards and temporary differences.84 Years Ended June 30, 2010 2009 2008 Options to purchase common stock 4,056,934 3,504,979 1,993,964 Restricted stock units 259,789 552,120 669,449 4,316,723 4,057,099 2,663,413 Years Ended June 30, 2010 2009 2008 Numerator: Net income (in thousands) $2,841 $609 $5,383 Denominator: Basic weighted-average sharesoutstanding 57,560,219 55,413,025 54,530,650 Stock options and restricted stockunits 2,630,448 3,315,730 5,903,613 Diluted weighted-average shares ofcommon stock outstanding 60,190,667 58,728,755 60,434,263 Basic net income per share: $0.05 $0.01 $0.10 Diluted net income per share: $0.05 $0.01 $0.09 Table of ContentsAccuray IncorporatedNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred tax assets to the amount the Company believes is more likely than not to berealized. Because of the uncertainty of the realization of the deferred tax assets, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against its domesticnet deferred tax assets. The calculation of unrecognized tax benefits involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex global tax regulations. Managementregularly assesses the Company's tax positions in light of legislative, bilateral tax treaty, regulatory and judicial developments in the countries in whichthe Company does business. Management does not believe there will be any material changes in the unrecognized tax benefits within the next12 months.Comprehensive Income Comprehensive income is comprised of net income and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income consists of foreign currencytranslation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on investments that have been excluded from the determination of net income. The Company hasreported the components of comprehensive income for the years ended June 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008 in its consolidated statements of stockholders'equity.Segment Information The Company has determined that it operates in only one segment as it only reports profit and loss information on an aggregate basis to its chiefoperating decision maker. The Company's long-lived assets maintained outside the United States are not material. Revenue by geographic region is based on the shipping addresses of the Company's customers. The following summarizes revenue by geographicregion (in thousands):Recent Accounting Pronouncements The Company's management has reviewed recent accounting pronouncements issued through the date of the issuance of financial statements. Inmanagement's opinion, except for those pronouncements detailed below, no other pronouncements apply or will have a material effect on the Company'sconsolidated financial statements. In April, 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2010-17, RevenueRecognition (Topic 605)—Milestone Method of Revenue Recognition—a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force. ASU No. 2010-17provides guidance on defining a milestone and determining when it may be appropriate to apply the milestone method of85 Years Ended June 30, 2010 2009 2008 United States (including Puerto Rico) $147,381 $171,563 $142,557 Europe 58,049 30,874 10,138 Asia (excluding Japan) 5,608 19,848 40,770 Japan 10,587 11,313 16,916 Total $221,625 $233,598 $210,381 Table of ContentsAccuray IncorporatedNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)revenue recognition for research or development transactions. This ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after June 15,2010. The adoption of ASU No. 2010-17 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-09, Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements. ASU No. 2010-09amends FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 855 and removes the requirement to disclose the date through which management evaluatedsubsequent events in the financial statements. This ASU is effective immediately for all financial statements that have not been issued or have not yetbecome available to be issued. The adoption of ASU No. 2010-09 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06, Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. ASU No. 2010-06 amendsFASB ASC 820 and clarifies and provides additional disclosure requirements related to recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements andemployers' disclosures about postretirement benefit plan assets. The new disclosures and clarifications under this ASU are effective over a period oftwo fiscal years, for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009 and after December 15, 2010. The first adoption dateupdates under ASU No. 2010-06 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. The adoption of the second date ofupdates is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-13, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements, (amendments to ASC Topic 605, RevenueRecognition) ("ASU 2009-13") (formerly EITF Issue 08-1) and ASU No. 2009-14, Certain Arrangements That Include Software Elements,(amendments to FASB ASC Topic 985, Software) ("ASU 2009-14") (formerly Emerging EITF 09-3). ASU 2009-13 requires entities to allocaterevenue in an arrangement using estimated selling prices of the delivered goods and services based on a selling price hierarchy. The amendmentseliminate the residual method of revenue allocation and require revenue to be allocated using the relative selling price method. ASU 2009-14 removestangible products from the scope of software revenue guidance and provides guidance on determining whether software deliverables in an arrangementthat includes a tangible product are covered by the scope of the software revenue guidance. ASU 2009-13 and ASU 2009-14 should be applied on aprospective basis for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with early adoptionpermitted. The Company will adopt ASU 2009-13 and ASU 2009-14 in fiscal 2011 and is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of ASU 2009-13 and ASU 2009-14 on the its consolidated financial statements. In December 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-17, Consolidations—Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises with VariableInterest Entities, (formerly SFAS No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)). ASU 2009-17 eliminates the quantitative approachpreviously required for determining the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity and to require ongoing qualitative reassessments of whether anenterprise is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. ASU 2009-17 requires additional disclosures about an enterprise's involvement invariable interest entities. ASU 2009-17 is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity's first annual reporting period that begins afterNovember 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Earlierapplication is prohibited. The adoption of ASU 2009-17 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.86Table of ContentsAccuray IncorporatedNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) In June 2009, the FASB issued ASC No. 860-10, Transfers and Servicing ("ASC 860-10") (formerly SFAS No. 166, Accounting for Transfersof Financial Assets, an amendment to SFAS No. 140). The new standard eliminates the concept of a "qualifying special-purpose entity," changes therequirements for derecognizing financial assets, and requires additional disclosures in order to enhance information reported to users of financialstatements by providing greater transparency about transfers of financial assets, including securitization transactions, and an entity's continuinginvolvement in and exposure to the risks related to transferred financial assets. ASC 860-10 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15,2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. The adoption of ASC 860-10is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.3. Collaboration Agreement In June of 2010, the Company entered into a Strategic Alliance Agreement, or the Alliance Agreement, with Siemens AG, or Siemens, pursuant towhich (1) the Company agreed to grant Siemens certain distribution rights to CyberKnife systems, (2) Siemens agreed to incorporate certain technologyof the Company into certain of its linear accelerator products, the combined products being known as the Cayman Products, and (3) a research anddevelopment relationship was created between the Company and Siemens for the pursuit and implementation of other potential collaborationopportunities in the future. The Alliance Agreement provides that Accuray will grant Siemens distribution rights to the CyberKnife system, allowing Siemens to include theCyberKnife system in multi-product sales when it also sells its own linear accelerator products or imaging products. The Company and Siemens enteredinto a Multiple Linac and Multi-Modality Distribution Agreement, or Distribution Agreement, which sets forth the terms of these distribution rights.Each sale under the Distribution Agreement is subject to pre-approval by the Company. The Alliance Agreement also provides that Siemens and theCompany will negotiate in good faith separate distribution agreements for the distribution by Siemens of the CyberKnife system in certain countries andregions throughout the world not currently able to be fully served by the Company. In consideration of the Company's development efforts with respect to the first Cayman Product, Siemens has agreed to pay the Company anarrangement fee, which fee is payable in installments based on the achievement of various milestones. The Company is obligated to incur certaindevelopment costs for the first Cayman Product in excess of the arrangement fee it receives from Siemens, provided that Siemens pays the Company thefull amount of the arrangement fee. The development of a second Cayman Product is contingent upon the satisfaction of certain conditions andmilestones. As of June 30, 2010, no payments had been earned and research and development costs incurred were minimal. Siemens will have the exclusive right to purchase from the Company certain technology solely for use in Cayman Products, but the Company mayterminate Siemens' exclusivity if Siemens fails to meet certain specified sales targets, or if the initial shipment of a Cayman Product does not occurwithin a specified period of time. Pursuant to the Alliance Agreement, Siemens and the Company agreed to develop a product concept for future joint technology developmentwithin six months following execution of the Alliance87Table of ContentsAccuray IncorporatedNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)3. Collaboration Agreement (Continued)Agreement. The Company and Siemens further agree to cooperate in good faith to explore additional opportunities for ongoing collaboration oncomplementary technology developments. The Alliance Agreement has a five year initial term, which will automatically renew for successive one year terms unless a party gives notice oftermination to the other party at least six months before the end of a term.4. Financial Instruments The Company is permitted to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized inearnings each reporting period. The election, called the fair value option, enables entities to achieve an offset accounting effect for changes in fair valueof certain related assets and liabilities without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. In November 2008, the Company had entered into an agreement ("Rights Agreement") with UBS, which provides the Company with ARS Rights("Rights") to sell its ARS at par value to UBS at any time during the period June 30, 2010 through July 2, 2012. On June 30, 2010, the Companyexercised its Right to sell its ARS and sold all ARS holdings. As a result of exercising the ARS right, the ARS balance of $21.5 million was liquidatedand the put option value of $0.4 million was realized, resulting in a net recognized gain of $65,000. Of the balance of ARS liquidated, $9.9 million wasin-transit as of June 30, 2010 and is therefore reflected as a current receivable within "Prepaid expenses and other current assets" on the Company'sconsolidated balance sheet. In addition, $4.0 million of securities were purchased on June 30, 2010, which resulted in an increase in "Short-termavailable-for-sale securities" plus an offsetting increase in "Other accrued liabilities" as of June 30, 2010. Both the $9.9 million sale of ARS and$4.0 million purchase of securities settled for cash in the first week of July 2010 which will increase the combined total of "Cash and cash equivalents"plus "Short-term available-for-sale securities" by $5.9 million in the first week of July 2010. The Company elected fair value accounting for the put option recorded in connection with the Rights Agreement. This election was made in orderto mitigate volatility in earnings caused by accounting for the purchased put option and underlying ARS under different methods. The initial election offair value resulted in a gain included in "Other Income, Net" for the put option which was recorded in long-term trading securities on the accompanyingconsolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2009. Due to UBS's ability to sell the ARS at any time under the Rights Agreement, the ARS previously reported as available-for-sale were transferredto trading securities and are classified as long-term trading securities on the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2009. Due to the change inclassification to trading securities, at the time of entering into the Rights Agreement, the Company transferred the previously accumulated unrealizedloss of $3.8 million from "Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)" to "Other income, net" and recorded additional unrealized gains of$2.1 million relating to the change in fair value of the trading securities from November 2008 through June 30, 2009 in "Other income, net". AtJune 30, 2009, the total fair value of the ARS was $20.7 million, net of $1.7 million of unrealized losses. Additionally, the Company recorded unrealized gains of $3.3 million related to the fair value of the put option at the time it entered into the RightsAgreement and recorded unrealized losses relating to the change in fair value of the put option from November 2008 through June 30, 2009 of88Table of ContentsAccuray IncorporatedNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)4. Financial Instruments (Continued)$2.0 million, for a total fair value of the put option of $1.3 million as of June 30, 2009. During the year ended June 30, 2009, the $1.7 million unrealizedloss in fair value of the ARS and the $2.0 million of unrealized loss on the put option, partially offset by the $3.3 million gain recognized on the putoption, resulted in a net $319,000 decrease to "Note 11. Other income, net". The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal ormost advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair valuehierarchy contains three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value, as follows: Level 1—Unadjusted quoted prices that are available in active markets for the identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date. Level 2—Other observable inputs available at the measurement date, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, either directly or indirectly,including:•Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; •Quoted prices for identical or similar assets in non-active markets; •Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and •Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by other observable market data. Level 3—Unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data and reflect the use of significant management judgment.These values are generally determined using pricing models for which the assumptions utilize management's estimates of market participantassumptions. The following tables sets forth by level within the fair value hierarchy the Company's financial assets that were accounted for at fair value on arecurring basis at June 30, 2010, according to the valuation techniques the Company used to determine their fair values (in thousands):89 Fair Value MeasurementsUsing Inputs Considered as Fair Value atJune 30, 2010 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Money market funds $1,104 $1,104 $— $— Corporate notes 34,992 — 34,992 — Commercial paper 22,513 — 22,513 — U.S. government and governmental agency obligations 43,774 — 43,774 — Total $102,383 $1,104 $101,279 $— Table of ContentsAccuray IncorporatedNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)4.

Financial Instruments (Continued) The table below presents a reconciliation of all assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservableinputs (Level 3). The Company classifies financial instruments in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy when there is reliance on at least one significantunobservable input to the valuation model. In addition to these unobservable inputs, the valuation models for Level 3 financial instruments typically alsorely on a number of inputs that are readily observable either directly or indirectly. Thus, the gains and losses presented below include changes in the fairvalue related to both observable and unobservable inputs. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument: Money market funds. Money market funds are open-ended mutual funds that typically invest in short-term debt securities. Money market fundsare classified as cash and cash equivalents on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. The Company classified these funds that are specificallybacked by debt securities as Level 1 instruments due to its usage of unadjusted quoted prices that are available in active markets for the identical assetsor liabilities at the measurement date. Corporate notes. Corporate notes are floating-rate obligations that are payable on demand. These are classified as available-for-sale within short-term marketable securities on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. The market approach was used to value the Company's variable-rate demandnotes. The Company classified these securities as Level 2 instruments due to either its usage of observable market prices in less active markets or, whenobservable market prices were not available, its use of non-binding market prices that are corroborated by observable market data or quoted marketprices for similar instruments. Commercial paper. Commercial paper is an unsecured, short-term debt instrument issued by corporations and financial institutions that generallymature within 270 days. The total fair value of commercial paper held as of June 30, 2010 of $22.5 million includes $1.4 million of money market fundsinvested in commercial paper which is classified as cash equivalents. The portion in cash and cash equivalents represents highly liquid debt instrumentswith insignificant interest rate risk and maturities of ninety days or less at the time of purchase. The market approach was used to value the Company'scommercial paper. The Company classified these securities as Level 2 instruments due to either its91 Year EndedJune 30, 2010 Year EndedJune 30, 2009 (in thousands) Beginning balance $22,007 $21,509 Change in temporary valuation adjustment previouslyrecorded in Accumulated Other ComprehensiveIncome — 891 Acquisition of put option — 3,316 Unrealized gain on auction rate securities included inearnings 1,656 (1,731) Unrealized loss on put option included in earnings (1,338) (1,978) Redemption of auction rate securities (22,325) — Ending balance $— $22,007 Table of ContentsAccuray IncorporatedNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)4.

U.S. government and governmental agency obligations. U.S. government and governmental agency obligations are issued by U.S. Federal, stateand local governments, government-sponsored enterprises ("GSE") and other governmental entities such as authorities or special districts that generallymature within 2 years. These are classified as short-term and long-term, when long term, available-for-sale securities on the Company's consolidatedbalance sheets. The market approach was used to value the Company's U.S. government and governmental agency obligations. The Company classifiedthese securities as Level 2 instruments due to either its usage of observable market prices in less active markets or, when observable market prices werenot available, its use of non-binding market prices that are corroborated by observable market data or quoted market prices for similar instruments. Auction-rate securities. Through June 30, 2010, there was insufficient observable market information available to determine the fair value of theCompany's ARS. Prior to December 31, 2008, the Company estimated Level 3 fair values for these securities based on the financial institutions broker'svaluations. The financial institution broker valued student loan ARS as floating rate notes with three pricing inputs: the coupon, the current discountmargin or spread, and the maturity. The coupon was generally assumed to equal the maximum rate allowed under the terms of the instrument, thecurrent discount margin was based on an assessment of observable yields on instruments bearing comparable risks, and the maturity was based on anassessment of the terms of the underlying instrument and the potential for restructuring the ARS. The primary unobservable input to the valuation wasthe maturity assumption which was set at five years for the majority of ARS instruments. Through January 6, 2008, the ARS were valued at par valuedue to the frequent resets that historically occurred through the auction process. As of December 31, 2008, the Company determined Level 3 fair value using an income approach. The pricing assumptions for the ARS includedthe coupon rate, the estimated time to liquidity, current market rates for publicly traded corporate debt of similar credit rating and an adjustment for lackof liquidity. The coupon rate was assumed to equal the stated maximum auction rate being received, which is the lesser of (i) an average trailing twelvemonth yield for the ARS that is equal to the average trailing twelve month 91-day U.S. Treasury rate plus 1.20% or 1.50% premium according toprovisions outlined in each security's agreement, (ii) the one-month LIBOR rate as of the auction date plus 1.5%, or (iii) a maximum interest rate ofeither 17% or 18% (specific to each ARS). The estimated time to liquidity was 3.25 years based on (i) expectations from industry brokers for liquidityin the market and (ii) the period over which UBS and other broker-dealers that had issued ARS have agreed to redeem certain ARS at par value. The put option gave the Company the right to sell the ARS to UBS for a price equal to par value during the period June 30, 2010 to July 2, 2012,providing liquidity for the ARS sooner than the estimated five years. Historically, the value of the put option lied in (i) the ability to sell the securitiesthereby creating liquidity approximately two years before the ARS market is expected to become liquid and (ii) the avoidance of receiving below-marketcoupon rate while the security is illiquid and auctions are failing. The fair value of the put option represented the difference between the ARS with anestimated time to liquidity in excess of the estimated time to liquidity of the put option, which allowed for the acceleration of liquidity and the avoidanceof a below market coupon rate.92Table of ContentsAccuray IncorporatedNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)5.

In exchange, Morphormicsgranted the Company a non-exclusive worldwide license to integrate several of its software products into the Company's treatment planning software.The equity investment afforded the Company a voting interest of approximately 18% in Morphormics. The Company's equity is considered to be at riskand is deemed not sufficient to finance Morphormics' current product development activities without additional subordinated financial support. Inaddition, the Company is deemed to be Morphormics' primary beneficiary; therefore, it would absorb a majority of expected losses. The Companyconsolidates Morphormics in its financial results. The consolidation of Morphormics' assets and liabilities did not have a material effect on theCompany's consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2010. The Company recorded losses in fiscal years 2010 and 2009 of $537,000 and $934,000,respectively. As of June 30, 2010, the investment amount has been fully utilized by Morphormics.7.

The Company performed the annual test for impairment of goodwill inDecember 2009 concluding that there was no impairment of goodwill. At June 30, 2010, there had been no indicators to perform an interim test. Theamortization expense relating to intangible assets for the years ended June 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008 was $280,000, $258,000 and $258,000,respectively.

The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make underthese indemnification agreements is unlimited; however, historically the Company has not incurred claims or costs to defend lawsuits or settle claimsrelated to these indemnification agreements. The Company has recorded no liability associated with its indemnification as it is not aware of any pendingor threatened actions that are probable losses as of June 30, 2010.Royalty Agreements In March 2007, the Company entered into a license and royalty agreement with Deutsches Krebsforschungszentrum ("DKFZ"), a German cancerresearch center.

The Company has recorded no liability associated with this indemnification, as it is not aware of any pending or threatened actionsthat are probable losses as of June 30, 2010.Litigation On July 22, 2009, a securities class action lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California against the Companyand certain of its current and former directors and officers. On August 7, 2009 and August 9, 2009, two securities class action complaints, both similarto the one filed on July 22, 2009, were filed against the same defendants in the same court. These three actions were consolidated. The consolidatedcomplaint generally alleges that the Company and the96Table of ContentsAccuray IncorporatedNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)8. Commitments and Contingencies (Continued)individual defendants made false or misleading public statements regarding the Company's operations and seek unspecified monetary damages and otherrelief. On August 5, 2009, a shareholder derivative lawsuit was filed in Santa Clara County Superior Court against certain of the Company's current andformer officers and directors. The Company is named as a nominal defendant.

On November 24, 2009, a shareholder derivative lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California against certainof the Company's current and former officers and directors. The Company is named as a nominal defendant. Three other shareholder derivative lawsuitswere filed in the same court on November 30, 2009, December 1, 2009 and March 16, 2010. These actions have been consolidated. The amendedconsolidated complaint generally alleges that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties by misrepresenting and/or failing to disclose materialinformation regarding the Company's business and financial performance, and that certain defendants also violated federal and California securitieslaws. The amended consolidated complaint seeks unspecified monetary damages and other relief. On September 3, 2009, Best Medical International, Inc.

Stockholders' Equity In August 2007 the Company announced that the Board of Directors had approved a stock repurchase plan that authorized the Company torepurchase shares of its common stock. Under the plan, the Company has the ability to acquire up to $25.0 million of common shares in the openmarket over a period of one year. No shares were repurchased during the years ended June 30, 2010 or 2009. As of June 30, 2008, the Company hadrepurchased 2,140,018 shares of its common stock for $24.0 million. Such shares were not retired nor returned to the status of authorized, unissuedshares. Accordingly, such shares remain issued and classified as treasury stock as of June 30, 2010. The Company accounts for its treasury stock underthe par value method. At June 30, 2010, the par value of the Company's treasury stock was immaterial. The stock repurchase plan expired in August2008 and was not renewed by the Board of Directors.Options and Restricted Stock Units In 2007, in connection with the Company's IPO, the Board of Directors approved the 2007 Incentive Award Plan (the "2007 Plan"). Under the2007 Plan, the Board of Directors is authorized to award stock-based grants to employees, directors, and consultants for up to 7,500,000 shares, of97Table of ContentsAccuray IncorporatedNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)9. Stockholders' Equity (Continued)which 3,038,641 were available for future issuances as of June 30, 2010. As of June 30, 2010, the 1993 Plan and the 1998 Plan continued to remain ineffect along with the 2007 Plan; however, options can no longer be granted from the 1993 and 1998 Plans, and all options which expire or are forfeitedwill be retired from the pool. Only employees are eligible to receive incentive stock options. Non-employees may be granted non-qualified options. The Board of Directors hasthe authority to set the exercise price of all options granted, subject to the exercise price of incentive stock options being no less than 100% of the fairvalue of a share of common stock on the date of grant; and no less than 85% of the fair value for non-qualified stock options. Generally, the Company's outstanding options and restricted stock units ("RSUs") vest at a rate of 25% per year, however, certain RSU's grantedvest 10% upon the first anniversary year of the grant date, 20% upon the second anniversary year of the grant date, 30% upon the third anniversary yearof the grant date and 40% upon the fourth anniversary year of the grant date. Continued vesting typically terminates when the employment or consultingrelationship ends. The maximum term of the options granted to persons who own at least 10% of the voting rights of all outstanding stock on the date ofgrant is 5 years. The maximum term of all other options is 10 years. The Company's current practice with options is to issue new shares to satisfy shareoption exercises. As of June 30, 2010, there was approximately $3.1 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to RSUs, which is expected to berecognized over a weighted-average period of 2.1 years. As of June 30, 2010, there was approximately $7.5 million, net of estimated forfeitures, ofunrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.4 years. The weighted-average assumptions used to value options granted during the years ended June 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008 were as follows: During the year ended June 30, 2009, the Company recognized $929,000 of stock-based compensation expense related to accelerated vesting ofstock options and RSUs in conjunction with employee separation costs. No such expenses were recognized during the years ended June 30, 2010 and2008. At June 30, 2010 and 2009, $207,000 and $456,000 of capitalized stock-based compensation costs were included as components of inventoryand deferred cost of revenue.98 Years Ended June 30, 2010 2009 2008Risk-free interest rate 2.11% - 3.04% 1.66% - 3.59% 2.71% - 4.88%Dividend yield — — — Expected life 6.25 6.25 6.25 Expected volatility 56.6% - 64.7% 61.2% - 68.5% 59.8% - 61.4%Table of ContentsAccuray IncorporatedNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)9.

The total intrinsic value of options exercised in the years ended June 30, 2010, 2009, and 2008 wasapproximately $6.6 million, $4.4 million and $29.2 million, respectively. The total fair value of shares vested during the years ended June 30, 2010,2009 and 2008 was $7.7 million, $10.8 million and $14.3 million, respectively.

The ESPP is deemed compensatory andcompensation costs are accounted for under ASC 718. Under the ESPP, the Company is authorized to issue up to 1,000,000 shares of common stock. Qualified employees are entitled to purchase theCompany's common stock at 85% of the lower of the fair market value of the common stock on the commencement date of each offering period or thefair market value on the specified purchase date. Employees' payroll deductions may not exceed 10% of their salaries. Employees may purchase up to2,500 shares per period provided that the value of the shares purchased in any calendar year may not exceed $25,000, as calculated pursuant to thepurchase plan.100Table of ContentsAccuray IncorporatedNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)9. Stockholders' Equity (Continued) During the years ended June 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008 the estimated fair value of ESPP shares was calculated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, using fair values of the ESPP shares between $1.75 per share and $6.94 per share. Expected volatility was based on thehistorical volatility of a peer group of publicly traded companies. The expected term of six months was based upon the offering period of the ESPP. Therisk-free rate for the expected term of the ESPP option was based on the U.S. Treasury Constant Maturity rate for each offering period. For the yearsended June 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008, the Company recognized $841,000, $998,000 and $1.0 million of compensation expense related to its ESPP,respectively. The weighted-average assumptions were as follows: As of June 30, 2010, there was approximately $424,000 of unrecognized compensation cost related to the ESPP, which is expected to berecognized over a weighted-average period of 0.4 years.

In addition, as of June 30, 2010, the Company had federal and state research and development tax credits of approximately $3.6 million and$4.7 million, respectively. The federal research credits will begin to expire in 2019 and the state research credits have no expiration date. Utilization of the Company's net operating loss and credit carryforwards is subject to annual limitation due to the ownership change limitationsprovided by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code and similar state provisions. However, none of the Company's federal and state carryforwardswill expire as a result of the ownership change limitation. Based on the available objective evidence and history of losses, the Company has established a 100% valuation allowance against its domestic andcertain foreign net deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty surrounding the realization of such assets.103 June 30, 2010 2009 Deferred tax assets: Federal and state net operating losses $10,127 $10,336 Accrued vacation 1,019 1,043 Deferred revenue 2,904 5,134 Credits 6,692 6,868 Capitalized research and development 48 82 Stock-based compensation expense 9,008 8,596 Reserves not deductible for tax purposes 6,104 4,337 Fixed assets 389 634 Other 1,648 1,160 Total deferred tax assets 37,939 38,190 Deferred tax liabilities: Unrealized gain on investment (15) (176) Total deferred tax liabilities (15) (176)Valuation allowance (37,734) (37,941) Net deferred tax assets: $190 $73 Table of ContentsAccuray IncorporatedNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)10. Income Taxes (Continued) The following is a rollforward of the Company's gross unrecognized tax benefit and liabilities associated with its uncertain tax positions at June 30,2010, 2009, and 2008 (in thousands):Rollforward of gross unrecognized tax benefit: The calculation of unrecognized tax benefits involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex global tax regulations. Managementregularly assesses the Company's tax positions in light of legislative, bilateral tax treaty, regulatory and judicial developments in the countries in whichthe Company does business. Management does not believe there will be any material changes in the unrecognized tax benefits within the next12 months. The Company has unrecognized tax positions of $331,000 reserved for foreign tax issues which if recognized would impact the taxprovision in future years. The Company's continuing practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. Such interest andpenalties were immaterial as of June 30, 2010. The Company files income tax returns in the United States, various states and foreign jurisdictions. Due to attributes being carried forward andutilized during open years, the statute of limitations remains open for the US federal jurisdiction and domestic states for tax years from 1999 andforward. The statute of limitations in France remains open from 2008, Hong Kong remains open from 2003 and Japan remains open from 2007. Currently, the Company is not under audit in any of its tax jurisdictions, both domestic and foreign.

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE Not applicable.Item 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES (a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design andoperation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2010. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief FinancialOfficer concluded that as of the end of the period covered by our Annual Report on Form 10-K, our disclosure controls and procedures were effectivein providing reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of1934 is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allowtimely decisions regarding required disclosure and that such information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periodsspecified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.(b) Internal Control over Financial ReportingManagement's Annual Report Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Under the supervision and with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, managementconducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based upon the framework in "Internal Control—IntegratedFramework" issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, management concludedthat our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of June 30, 2010, based upon the framework in "Internal Control—IntegratedFramework". Grant Thornton LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, has audited the consolidated financial statements included in this AnnualReport on Form 10-K and, as part of the audit, has issued a report, included herein, on the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reportingas of June 30, 2010.Inherent Limitations of Internal Controls Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherentlimitations. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment andbreakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper managementoverride. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal controlover financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to designinto the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.107Table of ContentsREPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the Board of Directors and StockholdersAccuray Incorporated We have audited Accuray Incorporated and subsidiaries' (the "Company") internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2010, based oncriteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission(COSO). The Company's management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of theeffectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over FinancialReporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standardsrequire that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting wasmaintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that amaterial weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performingsuch other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financialreporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company'sinternal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail,accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions arerecorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts andexpenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) providereasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have amaterial effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of anyevaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that thedegree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. In our opinion, Accuray Incorporated and subsidiaries maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as ofJune 30, 2010, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by COSO. We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the accompanyingconsolidated balance sheets of Accuray Incorporated and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2010 and 2009 and the related consolidated statements ofoperations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2010, and our report dated August 31, 2010,expressed an unqualified opinion thereon./s/ GRANT THORNTON LLPSan Francisco, CaliforniaAugust 31, 2010108Table of ContentsItem 9B.

Following the execution of this Agreement, Accuray shall prepare, withthe assistance and cooperation of Siemens as reasonably requested by Accuray, a detailed, medical device industry-level-quality project plan for thedevelopment of the Cayman 1 Product, which shall include (i) descriptions of the personnel requirements and the required materials to implement such plan,(ii) a development schedule for the Cayman 1 Product, (iii) detailed acceptance criteria for the prototype model, and (iv) detailed descriptions of the deliverablesrequired from Siemens and Accuray (the “Cayman 1 Detailed Plan”), and a medical device industry-level-quality functional specification for the Cayman 1Product (the “Cayman 1 Functional Specification”). The Cayman 1 Detailed Plan and the Cayman 1 Functional Specification shall be initially approved, andthereafter periodically reviewed, by the Steering Committee and may be updated and revised by such committee. (c) Development Efforts by Accuray. Upon initial approval by the Steering Committee of the Cayman 1 Detailed Plan and theCayman 1 Functional Specification, Accuray shall commence development of the Cayman 1 Product on the basis of the Cayman 1 Detailed Plan, andSiemens shall assist as set forth therein; provided, however, that the obligation of Accuray to perform such development shall be an obligation to use bestefforts, it being understood that, in this context, “best efforts” shall mean the undertaking by Accuray to perform such development at a cost to itself(including direct cost and overhead, as calculated in accordance with Accuray’s regular calculation standards to calculate such cost set forth in Schedule2.2(c), and including any amount of damages paid by Accuray to Siemens for breach of contract or otherwise relating to this best efforts clause) of up to theamount of Arrangement Fee actually received by Accuray (and which has not previously been repaid by Accuray), subject to the last sentence of this Section2.2(c). For example, if Accuray actually received {*****} million of the Arrangement Fee and Accuray had previously repaid {*****} million of theArrangement Fee, Accuray would only be liable for up to {*****} million of development efforts under this best efforts clause, subject to the followingsentence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in addition to the amount set forth above, “best efforts” shall also include Accuray incurring development costs forthe Cayman 1 Product (calculated as set forth above) of up to a maximum of {*****} (inclusive of the amounts of the Arrangement Fee it actually receivesfrom 4 Siemens), provided that Siemens pays to Accuray the full amounts of the Arrangement Fee set forth in paragraphs (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) of Schedule 2.2(d)(i)and any other amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.2(d)(iii). (d) Arrangement Fee. (i) In consideration of the development efforts of Accuray related to the Cayman 1 Product, Siemens hereby agrees to payto Accuray an arrangement fee in an amount calculated pursuant to Schedule 2.2(d)(i) (the “Arrangement Fee”). The Arrangement Fee shall be payable as setforth on Schedule 2.2(d)(i); provided, however, that in the event that Accuray is prevented from achieving the second and third milestones set forth onSchedule 2.2(d)(i) due to the non-performance by Siemens of its obligation to assist Accuray, including, without limitation, to deliver the deliverables set forthon the Cayman 1 Detailed Plan, and Siemens, after written notice from Accuray, continues to fail to provide such assistance and/or deliver such deliverables,then Accuray shall be entitled to receive from Siemens, regardless of whether any of such milestones have been achieved, a portion of the Arrangement Feeequal to the cost to Accuray (as calculated in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 2.2(c)) of Accuray’s development efforts made prior to suchdate, and in such event Accuray shall provide to Siemens a written summary of its test results and development efforts made prior to such date (but, in anyevent, Accuray shall not provide any source code, object code, or prototypes). (ii) The Arrangement Fee is an agreed upon fee for the scope of development provided for above and is intended tocompensate Accuray for expenditures or expenses (as calculated in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 2.2(c)) incurred in connection withsatisfying its obligations under, and pursuing the objectives of, this Section 2.2 jointly with Siemens, including, without limitation, the objectives set forth inSchedule 2.2(d)(ii). Accuray shall make available to the Steering Committee, on a quarterly basis, detailed documentation of such expenditures and expensesand, upon request and not more often than monthly, estimates of such expenditures and expenses. By way of clarification, nothing in this Agreement shallcreate a liability of Accuray for a successful implementation of the foregoing objectives or otherwise a contract for works obligation (werkvertraglicheVerpflichtung). (iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Accuray shall be obligated to incur development costs for the Cayman 1 Product (ascalculated in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 2.2(c)) of up to a maximum of {*****} above the amount of the Arrangement Fee it actuallyreceives from Siemens, provided that Siemens pays to Accuray the full amounts of the Arrangement Fee set forth in paragraphs (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) ofSchedule 2.2(d)(i). If the Accuray Gross Profits do not exceed the Accuray Excess Expenditures, Siemens shall, within 10 days of the date that is 18 monthsafter the Initial Shipment Date, pay to Accuray an amount equal to the difference between the Accuray Excess Expenditures and the Accuray Gross Profits. (e) Prototype Acceptance. Upon completion by Accuray of the development of the Cayman 1 Product, Accuray shall make availableone prototype thereof to Siemens for acceptance testing. The Steering Committee will oversee the performance of an acceptance review by Siemens of theCayman 1 Product to confirm that such prototype conforms with the Cayman 1 Functional Specification and the acceptance criteria set forth in the Cayman 1 5 Detailed Plan. If the Cayman 1 Product passes the acceptance review and is CE Marked, the Cayman 1 Product shall be deemed accepted by Siemens asbeing in accordance with such functional specification and such acceptance criteria. By way of clarification, such acceptance review shall includeconsideration of factors related to the functionality and performance of the Cayman 1 Product (including the Accuray Components and Interface incorporatedtherein), but shall not include consideration of the status of 510(k) clearance. 2.3 Development of Cayman 2.

General Indemnification 18.1 In addition to Supplier’s indemnification obligations set forth in Article 17, Supplier shall indemnify and hold Customer harmless fromand against all losses, liabilities, damages and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) resulting from any claims,demands, actions or other proceedings by any Third Party arising from (a) the breach of any representation, warranty, or covenant bySupplier under these Terms and Conditions or (b) the negligence or willful misconduct of Supplier in performing its obligations under theseTerms and Conditions. 18.2 In addition to Customer’s indemnification obligations set forth in Article 17, Customer shall indemnify and hold Supplier harmless fromand against all losses, liabilities, damages, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) resulting from any claims,demands, actions or other proceedings by any Third Party arising from (a) the breach of any representation, warranty, or covenant byCustomer under these Terms and Conditions or (b) the negligence or willful misconduct of Customer in performing its obligations underthese Terms and Conditions. 18.3 A party (the “Indemnitee”) that intends to claim indemnification under this Article shall promptly notify the other party (the “Indemnitor”)of any claim, demand, action or other proceeding for which the Indemnitee intends to claim such indemnification. The Indemnitor shallhave the right to participate in, and, to the extent the Indemnitor so desires, jointly with any other indemnitor similarly noticed, to assumethe defense thereof with counsel selected by the Indemnitor; provided, however, that the Indemnitee shall have the right to retain its owncounsel, with the reasonable fees and expenses to be paid by the Indemnitor, if the Indemnitee reasonably determines that representation ofthe Indemnitee by counsel retained by the Indemnitor would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between theIndemnitee and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceedings. The indemnity obligations under this Article shall notapply to amounts paid in settlement of any claim, demand, action or other proceeding if such settlement is effected without the consent ofthe Indemnitor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The failure to deliver notice to the Indemnitor promptly afterthe commencement of any such action or other proceeding, if, and to the extent, prejudicial to its ability to defend such action or otherproceeding, shall relieve such Indemnitor of any liability to the Indemnitee under this Article, but the omission so to deliver notice to theIndemnitor will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any Indemnitee otherwise than under this Article. The Indemnitor shall notsettle, or 11 otherwise consent to an adverse judgment in, any such action or other proceeding that diminishes the rights or interests of the Indemniteewithout the express written consent of the Indemnitee.

This document lists theminimum requirements for suppliers of Siemens Medical Solutions describing · how parts, components and systems are identified with their attributes and· how attributes are labeled both as plain text as well as barcode on products and its packaging. Detailed specifications with regards to the labeling of products are defined for the individual product concerned. 2 Definitions and abbreviations 2.1 Material No. The Siemens Medical Solutions Material No. is used to uniquely identify products (parts, components and systems). It consists of an 8-digit identification no.assigned by Siemens Medical Solutions. Previously, the term ‘‘Part no.” was also used; it is replaced by the term “Material No.”. 2.2 Revision The Revision (abbreviated ‘‘Rev.”) serves to distinguish between different update statuses of hardware. It is assigned by Siemens Medical Solutions. The English term “Revision” replaces the German term “Erzeugnisstand” (abbreviated “ES”) and “Ausführungsstand” (abbreviated “AS”). 2.3 Serial No. The Serial No. is an identifying attribute used to uniquely identify hardware or software with the same Material No. . For suppliers the Serial No. can consist of up to 15 alphanumeric digits; it is however recommended to use only a 6 digit numerical Serial No. where possible. The Serial No. may contain a dash (-) or a slash (/), but no other special characters (e.g. # + * ?). Spaces, lower-case letters or language-specific characters(e.g. Ä, Ö, Ü) are not allowed within the Serial No. . The characters “L”, “SxxL” or “Sxx” at the end or the beginning of the Serial No. should be avoided (xx = any alphanumerical character). For any Serial No. that is numeric only (i.e. has no letters) it is allowed to omit printing of leading zeros („0”). It is recommended to use the Serial No. of the supplier if it complies with the principles described above. 2.4 Data Identifier Data Identifiers are used in the barcode to indicate that the information following the Data Identifier is data of a certain attribute. The Data Identifier enablesthe barcode reading program to recognize that the following information represents a certain type of attribute. Data Identifiers to be used: 1PMaterial No.2PRevision (for packaging only)SSerial No.QQuantity (for packaging only)14DExpiration date (for packaging only)TBatch (for packaging only) 3 2.5 Expiration date The format of the expiration date shall be definite and specified as follows: YYYYMMDD 2.6 Batch The batch is an alphanumeric ident number with 10 digits, used to identify parts manufactured or shipped together. Is no batch provided on the packing butrequired, a batch is initiated in the stock. 2.7 Shelf life If a shelf life is defined for parts the shelf life has to be filed in calendar days. (365 days per year) 3 Reference documents n.a. 4 Requirements 4.1 Identification of parts, components and systems Non-serialized parts (including spare parts) and components are identified using a Material No. . If necessary, different statuses of a part, component orsystem can be distinguished via the Revision. Serialized parts, components and systems are identified using the combination of Material No. and Serial No. . In addition, the Revision may be used todistinguish between different statuses of hardware. 4.2 Labeling of parts, components, systems and its packaging In general, requirements with respect to labeling have to be defined for the product concerned. However, minimum requirements are specified in order to allowproper identification throughout all processes involved. This chapter lists those minimum requirements. For all material numbers specified by Siemens the parts and its packaging have to be labeled according to the requirements listed below. The label depends onwhether a part/component/system · is serialized· contains a revision level· is classified as an IVK (“Installed Volume Component”)· shall be handled by expiration date or batch Siemens defines those requirements per individual Material No. . 4 ColorUsually white label with black printing other colors are allowed as long as barcode/plain text can beread Barcode content1P
