<br />including, April 24, 2025 (the “Initial Term”). Upon the expiration of the Initial Term, the Agreement shall
<br />automatically renew for successive one (1) year periods (each an “Extended Term” and collectively with the Initial
<br />Term as it may be extended, “Term”), unless either Party gives written notice of such Party’s intent to terminate
<br />the Agreement no less than forty-five (45) days prior to the start of any Extended Term. Notwithstanding the
