	7.3
	 
	The parties agree that by mutual written consent this Agreement shall immediately terminate. Additionally, the parties agree that if PURITY PRODUCTS is sold to
an unrelated third party, then MICROBEST shall have two months from the date of such sale to notify, in writing, PURITY PRODUCTS of MICROBEST’s election to terminate this Agreement due to such sale. A termination by MICROBEST due to such sale
of PURITY PRODUCTS shall become effective two months after MICROBEST provides such written notice to PURITY PRODUCTS. 
 

  

	7.4
	 
	This Agreement may be terminated by any party in the event that the other party shall fail to perform any material covenant, obligation, representation or
warranty made by it or to be performed hereunder, provided, however, that no termination may be effected hereunder unless and until the terminating party shall have delivered to the other party written notice informing the other party of any alleged
default. If such default is not cured within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice, this Agreement shall automatically terminate on the last day of such thirty (30) day period. Any cure of a default shall be retroactively effective prior to
default. However, should a party receive notice of breach under this provision Section 7.4 more than two (2) times during any one (1) calendar year period, and even if the party cures each such breach, the party shall, regardless of such cures, be
in material breach of this Agreement without a right to further cure and the other party may terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days written notice. 
 

  

	7.5
	 
	Specifically, a non-breaching party will have the right to terminate this Agreement upon occurrence of a material breach of this Agreement as follows:

 

  

	 	(i)
	 
	The non-breaching party notifies the breaching party, and the breaching party does not cure any of the following material breach conditions within thirty (30)
days of notification. 
 

  

	 	(a)
	 
	PURITY PRODUCTS fails to timely pay a monthly royalty payment to MICROBEST within 10 days written notice by MICROBEST of a default in payment under paragraph
6.2, herein. 
 

  

	 	(b)
	 
	PURITY PRODUCTS, with no fault on MICROBEST’s part, fails to maintain commercially acceptable quality, as defined in paragraph 5.8 of this Agreement, in
LICENSED PRODUCT delivered to customers, resulting in actual, or clearly threatened, harm to the reputation and good will of MICROBEST. 
 

  

	 	(b)
	 
	MICROBEST, with no fault on PURITY PRODUCTS’ part, fails to maintain a total monthly sales volume of LICENSED PRODUCT of not less than $100,000 during at
least three consecutive calendar months, subsequent to the “grace period,” se paragraph 6.1(c). 
 

  

	 	(ii)
	 
	A breaching party engages in any of the following acts, which may result in immediate termination after written notice by the other party: 



  

	 	(a)

	7.6
	 
	Effect of Termination. In the event either party has any business dealings with the other party after termination of this Agreement, those business
relations shall not be construed as a renewal of this Agreement nor as a waiver of any such termination. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to create any express or implied obligation on either party to renew or extend this
Agreement or to create any right to continue this Agreement on the same terms and conditions contained herein. Upon termination of this Agreement, each party shall return to the other party, any and all materials containing CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION,
which were received from the other party for the purposes of this Agreement. The following Sections shall survive expiration or termination of this Agreement: Articles 2.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, and CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION Article 9.0, and Sections 13.2,
13.4, 13.7, and 13.9, and those clauses of other Sections of this Agreement that survive by their very nature.
