The Monthly Payments are non-refundable and shall be applied against the Option Payment (see Paragraph 2 below). |

OPTION FULFILMENT – Alpha shall be considered to have exercised its Option if, prior to the end of the Option Period, it tenders Kadence the difference between $50,000.00 and the sum of its total Monthly Payments to that date (the “Option Payment”). In the event Alpha exercises the Option by payment of the Option Payment, a new PSA covering the Project shall be executed by the Parties following the general terms of the 2019 PSA, updated as may be necessary (the “2020 PSA”, as detailed in Paragraph (3)). The Parties shall work diligently and in good faith to agree on a mutually acceptable new PSA. |

c) |

Together, the Option Payment, Production Payment, and Project Payment shall satisfy the Purchase Price as defined in Article II (2.3) of the 2019 PSA. |
d) |
PAYABLES – Any outstanding debts or payables carried by Kadence pursuant the Project shall be deducted from the Project or Production Payments. |
