CANCELLATION American Holistic Nurses Association agrees to provide Hotel with written notice of any decision to cancel or to otherwise essentially abandon its use of the total room nights (a “Cancellation�) within five (5) business days of such decision.

American Holistic Nurses Association therefore agrees to pay Hotel, within thirty (30) days after any Cancellation, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, the amount listed in the Chart below.

Date of Decision to Cancel Date of Agreement to 365 days From 364 to 180 days Less than 179 days

Amount of Liquidated Damages Due 60% of estimated room revenue 80% of estimated room revenue 100% of estimated room revenue
