As all calculations for total rebates are based on the purchase information supplied at a given point in time, adjustments to these purchase credits are always a possibility due to a variety of factors not necessarily under the control of Bayer.

27. Notwithstanding anything in this BayerValue Program, Bayer may delay payment of any entitlements earned under the BayerValue Program until the cumulative amount owing to a grower exceeds certain minimal amounts determined by Bayer CropScience from time to time in its sole discretion. Bayer shall endeavor to make payment of such earned entitlements at the next scheduled issuance of BayerValue payments.
