           existing as of the date of signature of this Agreement, not
           reasonably foreseeable as of such date and not reasonably within the
           control of either party, which prevents in whole or in material part
           the performance of one of the parties of its obligations hereunder or
           which renders the performance of such obligations so difficult or
           costly as to make such performance commercially unreasonable. Without
           limiting the foregoing, the following shall constitute events or
           conditions of Force Majeure: acts of State or governmental action,
           riots, disturbance, war, industry-related strikes, lockouts,

           an event of Force Majeure shall be released without any liability on
           its part for the performance of its obligations under this Agreement,
           except for the obligation to pay any amounts due and owing hereunder,
           but only to the extent and only for the period that its performance
           of such obligations is prevented by the event of Force Majeure. Such
           notice shall include a description of the nature of the event of
           Force Majeure, and

                                      -13-
<PAGE>

           its cause and possible consequences. The party claiming Force Majeure

           event.

           where available, or a statement describing in detail the facts
           claimed to constitute Force Majeure.

     16.4  Suspension of Performance.  During the period that performance by
           -------------------------
           one of the parties of its obligations under this Agreement has been

           likewise suspend the performance of all or part of its obligations
           hereunder to the extent that such suspension is commercially
           reasonable.

     16.5  Period of Force Majeure.  Should the period of Force Majeure
           -----------------------
           continue for more than [***] either party may terminate this

           reach an amicable settlement through negotiation. If the parties are
