this Agreement (including the first year), Klear Knit shall pay to Pivot Rules

exceeds $2,500,000.00 during any year, provided, however, that total payments
during the five year period, in the aggregate, will be capped at $290,000.00,

owed to Pivot Rules, and such deficiency is substantiated, Klear Knit agrees to
pay the reasonable cost of the inspection, which shall not exceed $5,000.00,
unless such discrepancy is the result of fraud, gross negligence or bad faith,
in which case Klear Knit agrees to pay the reasonable cost of the inspection.

ten (10) business days written notice to Klear Knit and shall take place during
reasonable business hours. Pivot Rules agrees that all information learned
during any inspection shall be confidential and agrees not to make any use,
