rights granted hereunder.
b. TERMINATION. In addition to other provisions hereof

intellectual property rights in the Software as set forth in section
38.2(c)(iii)(a) or (b) of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Agreement and one of the following is true:

Software license fees which shall be at a reasonable market price as of the date

(2) until such time as the outstanding balance of the
Notes have been paid off, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ makes payments to each of the two Holders
respectively of half of Software license fees which shall be at a reasonable
market price as of the date of termination (which would have otherwise been
paid to Statmon under (1) above). In the event ▇▇▇▇▇▇ chooses to make such
payments to the two Holders, Statmon hereby waives any rights that it might
otherwise have to receive such amounts and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall be relieved from its
obligations to make such payments to Statmon.
In addition, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall receive a credit in the amount
of the aggregate Software license fees paid pursuant to paragraphs (1) and (2)
above, to be applied toward the purchase price of the intellectual property
