agents and/or representatives and/or any third party on Elgressy's behalf the

lose its exclusivity with respect to all the States. However
notwithstanding the above, if an annual target is not met, the Marketing
Arm shall have the option to pay Elgressy a cash payment equal to
Elgressy's share in the shortfall with regard to 75% of the relevant
annual target, in order to keep its exclusivity in the aforementioned
Territories or Fields (the "Marketing Arm Option").
The Marketing Arm Option must be exercised and funded within sixty (60)
days of the end of a relevant year, after which it shall
expire.

Notwithstanding
the above, in the event that (i) the Marketing Arm did not exercise the
Marketing Arm Option, and (ii) Elgressy has not granted any third party
exclusive rights for any Chosen State or Germany or Field, and (iii) in the year
following the Non-Performance, the Marketing Arm has achieved the relevant
targets for a Chosen State or Germany or Field for the year for which
Non-Performance occurred and for the following year, the exclusivity shall be
reinstated for such Chosen State or Germany or Fields, as the case may be and
the above paragraph of this Section 3.8 shall apply. For the purpose of this
section, the target for the Chosen States shall be reduced proportionally for
the Chosen States in which exclusivity has been granted by
Elgressy to a third party. (i.e., if Elgressy grants exclusivity with respect to
one of the Chosen States, and assuming there are three Chosen
States, the annual target with respect to the
Chosen States left shall be reduced from US$750,000 (seven
hundred and fifty thousands US dollars) to US$500,000 (five hundred thousands US
