Each party may at any time terminate this Agreement for whatever reason with advance written notice of at least 30 days; provided, however, that the termination of the Agreement by the Company shall not release the Company from its obligation to pay the Fees set forth in Section 3 below until the end of the Term, unless the Company terminated the Agreement due to (i) the failure of the Service Provider and/or Rivel to perform the Services (as defined below) or (ii) the Service Provider and/or Rivel violating their non-competition obligations to the Company, in which case the Company shall not be required to pay any additional Fees.

During the Term, the Service Provider shall render its advice and assistance, based on Rivel's experience as the Company's founder and former CEO, to the Company's Board of Directors and management as shall be directed and instructed from time to time by the Chairman of the Company's Board of Directors and the Company's Chief Executive Officer up to a maximum of one day a week (the "Services").
