4. Section 4.2 shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with a new Section 4.2 as follows:

As additional consideration for the License, Licensee shall pay APL the sales milestone payments set forth below (each, a “Sales Milestone Payment” and together with the Performance Milestone Payments, the “Milestone Payments”) on a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product and Licensed Service-by-Licensed Service basis, the first time that aggregate worldwide Net Sales for such Licensed Product or Licensed Service reach the thresholds set forth below (each, a “Sales Milestone” and together with the Performance Milestones, the “Milestones”), whether achieved by Licensee or an Affiliate or Sublicensee.
