(b)Paragraph 3 of Article 2 is hereby amended by deleting the fourth (4th) sentence thereof and replacing the sentence as follows:

Depending on the volume of the Products actually produced by Supplier through the end of each of Production Years 1 and 2, Supplier and Buyer agree to reconcile any underpayment or overpayment of the Tolling Fee for such Production Year. If $*** in Tolling Fees is not paid in each of Production Years 1 (inclusive of the Interim Period) and 2, the difference between $*** and the aggregate amount of Tolling Fees actually paid in such Production Year shall be promptly paid within thirty (30) days to Supplier.

The Capital Recovery Credit shall apply so long as Supplier is using the Facility for any purpose other than to manufacture and package the Products for Buyer (“Non-Product Use”), which use commenced on May 1, 2010. Buyer and Supplier agree that the year-end reconciliation of the Capital Recovery Amount for Production Year 1 (inclusive of the Interim Period) will be pro-rated effective as of May 1, 2010 due to the Non-Product Use. Buyer and Supplier agree that production of *** Products shall not constitute Non-Product Use of the Facility.
