freight costs associated with the Shipment of the AAS eggs from Canada to Panama. 
 9.5 The monthly payment described in section 9.1 will be suspended if
the total live AAS population in the ABP Project’s rearing facilities falls below one hundred (100) AAS, for any reason other than programmed harvests mutually agreed upon by both, ABT by means of ABP, and the LANDLORD. In the event that
the AAS population in the rearing facilities has not recovered to more than one hundred (100) AAS within ninety (90) days of falling below the one hundred (100) AAS threshold, this agreement will be irrevocably terminated without the
need of previous notice or judicial authorization, unless it is remedied within the cure period stated in Article 12 of this Agreement. 

  
 -6- 








 In the event that the loss of AAS is due to an Act of God (caso fortuito as described in the second
paragraph of Article 34-D of the Civil Code of Panama) or a government imposed action (fuerza mayor as described in the first paragraph of Article 34-D of the Civil Code of Panama), that was not directly or indirectly caused by the LANDLORD,

 In the event
that the conditions of 9.5 have been triggered by loss of AAS as described above within the first thirteen (13) months of the TERM, the reduced monthly payments of $15,000.00 described above will be discounted (up to a maximum of $15,000 per
month) until the Deposit has been fully realized, at which point the $15,000.00 per month payments to the LANDLORD will continue until the termination date of the Agreement. 

9.6 ABP will pay for an independent local auditor to prepare an inventory of the AAS population in the ABP Project and to verify that no material changes have
been made to the ABP Project’s layout, production facilities, containment elements, and water distribution pathways. 
 9.7 In the event that
Panamanian legal counsel is required to defend the ABP Project against litigations or claims, ABP will assume the legal expenses if the litigation or claim arises out of (i) reasons not attributable to the LANDLORD; and/or (ii) reasons
attributable to the ABP Project or the AAS eggs. However, if the litigation or claim is a result of a direct or indirect action of the LANDLORD, then the LANDLORD will bear said legal expenses. 

9.8 ABP will transfer ownership to the LANDLORD of ABP’s vehicle (2007 Nissan Frontier, license plate: 416101) at no cost to the LANDLORD. 

ARTICLE 10. PRODUCT 
 10.1 Product
ownership: ABP is the owner of (i) the AAS contained in the tanks; and (ii) the harvested AAS. At its discretion, ABP may offer without any cost to the LANDLORD a portion of the AAS as a production performance incentive bonus, in
addition to the monthly fees described in Article 9.1, if the AAS has been approved by United States (U.S.) and Panamanian authorities as described in Article 11. 

10.2 Product sales: In the event that the AAS is approved by U.S. and the authorities of the Republic of Panama, as described in Article 11, ABP,
and/or ABT, will determine to whom and in what form the harvested AAS will be commercialized. The LANDLORD will be given first rights of refusal to purchase the harvested AAS. 

10.3 Product processing: ABT and/or ABP will decide where to process the harvested AAS. If ABT and/or ABP use the LANDLORD to process the AAS, ABT
and/or ABP will pay the LANDLORD a competitively priced processing and packing fee that shall be agreed by both parties. 
 10.4 Sales Proceeds: In
the event that the AAS is approved by the U.S. and authorities of the Republic of Panama, as described in Article 11, all sales proceeds from approved harvested AAS will belong to ABP and/or ABT. 

  
 -7- 








 ARTICLE 11. PRODUCT DISPOSITION 

Until the U.S. FDA has approved AAS in the U.S., and until ABP has complied with the regulations and laws of the Republic of Panama permitting the
commercialization and consumption of AAS in Panama, all AAS produced at the ABP Project must be destroyed according to the protocol established by the authorities in Panama and not allowed to enter commerce or be consumed. 

ARTICLE 12. CURE PERIOD 
 If any of the Parties
breaches the terms of this Agreement (“Breach”), the offended party will deliver a written notice to the breaching party (“Notice”) within thirty (30) calendar days of the Breach. The breaching party will in turn have sixty
(60) calendar days to remedy his Breach (“Cure Period”). In the event that breaching party does not satisfactorily remedy his Breach within the Cure Period, the offended party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by
written notice to the breaching party. Notwithstanding the above, shall according to the exclusive opinion of ABP, the Breach endanger the ABP Project, upon Notice the LANDLORD will be obliged to immediately remedy the Breach, and shall it not be
remedied, ABP will be entitled to terminate this Agreement without Notice and/or judicial authorization. 
 ARTICLE 13. TERMINATION 

13.1 The occurrence of any of the following events shall be deemed to be and shall be treated as a default under this Agreement and the parties shall be
entitled to terminate this Agreement without the need of Notice and/or judicial authorization: 
  

	 	1.	The breach or failure by either Party in the due observance or performance of the obligations of this Agreement; 

  

	 	2.	The extinction of the possessory rights of LANDLORD over the Property, unless that such possessory rights evolve into property rights and title; 


 

	 	3.	The resignation or death of the LANDLORD; 

  

	 	4.	The diminishment of the River Flow and/or spring water adjacent to the Parcel in such a manner that could impede ABP to continue developing its activities and/or the ABP Project;

	 	6.	If either of the Parties files or have filed a petition of bankruptcy liquidation or dissolution.
