such breach is not cured within thirty (30) calendar days after written notice by the Terminating Party to the Breaching Party of such breach,
provided, however
that if the Breaching Party has used commercially reasonable efforts during such initial cure period to cure such breach, and if
such breach is not curable with such thirty (30) day period, the cure period shall be extended for an additional thirty (30) days subject to the
Breaching Party’s continued use of commercially reasonable efforts to cure such breach during such extension, or (b) repeated material breaches
