        “HSI hereby agrees to provide distribution services in connection with the sales of such doses and to charge the end use customer no more than the price negotiated by IDB with the end user customer (HSI may charge less if it elects to do so), and HSI shall pay IDB for such doses the Purchase Price set forth in Section 2(A)(v) of Schedule 1 of the Agreement, provided that HSI’s

        “In the event that such doses are available for delivery and release in November or December and IDB is able to find a purchaser for such doses and requires distribution services, HSI hereby agrees to provide distribution services in connection with the sales of such doses and to charge the end use customer no more than the price negotiated by IDB with the end user customer (HSI may
        charge less if it elects to do so), and HSI shall pay IDB for such doses the Purchase Price set for in Section 2(A)(v) of Schedule 1 of the Agreement, provided that HSI’s obligation to pay IDB the Purchase Price for such doses shall be contingent on HSI’s receipt of payment from the end user customer for the doses.”


         


        
            	
                        4.
