The Incremental Price Per Unit will be triggered upon meeting the Minimum Sales Level for a
particular year. After meeting the Minimum Sales Level, the Incremental Price Per Unit shall be
determined by the Cumulative Sales Level. In calculating the Cumulative Sales Level, all sales
under the Agreement of AEDs or Wall Mounts, as applicable, shall be considered.
The Incremental Marketing Fee is calculated by multiplying the Incremental Price Per Unit by the
number of units sold in a particular year less the number of units sold to reach the Minimum Sales
Level.
Example,
If 500 AEDs are sold in Year 1, the Incremental Marketing Fee will be $22,500 (225 x $100). In
Year 2, if 100 Units are sold, the Incremental Marketing Fee will be $0 (since the Minimum Sales
Level was not reached). In Year 3, if 1,000 AEDs are sold, the Incremental Marketing Fee will be
$141,450 ((1000-57) x $150). In Year 4, if 2 AEDs are sold the Incremental Marketing Fee will be
$300 (2 x $150).
