13.1. Notwithstanding any other provisions hereunder, this Agreement may be
terminated before the expiration of its term under the following circumstances:

a)       By either party for cause by giving not less than ninety (90) days
         prior written notice of termination to the other party. For purposes of
         this Section XIII, "cause" means the other party's material breach of a
         duty or obligation under this Agreement, and /or repeated failure of
         the other party to perform one or more of its duties or obligations
         whether or not any one or more of such failures themselves constitute a
         material breach; or

b)       By either party forthwith on written notice of termination to the other
         party for the other party's voluntary or involuntary petition of
         bankruptcy, or insolvency, or winding up of its operations.

giving notice

                                      -13-

may withhold its own performance (except in respect of the payment of any amount
then due and owing to the other party) unless the other party cures or acts with
due diligence to cure the breach or failures. Provided, however, if the cause
specified in the notice is Distributor's failure to meet minimum sales
objectives for any period, then Distributor must make up the deficit during the
notice period.

normal working hours, to Distributor's place(s) of business to check books and
