covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto do hereby
covenant and agree as follows:
1. All defined terms set out in this Agreement shall have the same meaning as
the defined terms set out in the License Agreement, except that any
reference to Antenna(s) shall mean only one Antenna.
2. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Initial Testing has been
completed by World Tracking and IAS has been advised by World Tracking that
one of the sample antennas is acceptable and the GPS antenna is not
suitable to World Tracking.
3. IAS acknowledges and agrees that since World Tracking has approved only one
of the two antennas, the non-recurring engineering fee shall be reduced
from $30,000 to $15,000.
4. World Tracking acknowledges and agrees that of the $15,000 Retainer paid by

construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never
been contained herein. IAS and World Tracking hereby agree, however, to
negotiate an equitable amendment of this Agreement if a material provision
is adversely affected.
7. This Agreement and any modification or waiver of any provision hereof shall
be binding only if set forth in writing and signed by both parties hereto

waiver and for the particular occasion.
