2.       AME.ND MENT OF SECTION 3.4. The ability of Licensee to maintain the exclusivity arrangement in the Original Agreement is hereby amended with the addition of the following

For instance, if only 100K TAS are purchased in Year I and Licensee pays an additional shortfall amount of $100K to maintain exclusivity, the additional shortfall amount of $100K will be applied against TAS unit purchases in the first 6 months of Year 2. If no additional TAS units are purchased in the first six (6) months of Year 2, then the shortfall amount shall be retained by Licensor and shall not be applied against any purchases after July 1, 2019.

If Licensor fails to deliver the Products within the stated delivery schedule for any reason other than due to Licensee's actions or inaction, Licensor hereby agrees that Licensee may terminate this Agreement for cause.
