9.4 If the Licensee’s auditor does not provide the unqualified certificate within 90 days of Deswik issuing the request to the Licensee (or such longer period as Deswik may in its sole discretion agree), the Licensee will be considered to be in breach of the terms of this EULA and Deswik may terminate this EULA and all licenses granted under it.
