Pursuant to the Agreement, a period of exclusivity through April 1, 2006 has been established for the parties to agree on alternate terms and conditions of sale, including a revised purchase price.

The parties agree that a sum of £750,000 shall be paid to Travelex and Snax on January 3, 2006, to be credited against the purchase price, should the acquisition close on or before May 2, 2006. Should the acquisition not close by that time, an additional payment of £750,000 shall be made and any remaining rights or obligations related to the transaction extinguished in full.
