3. Partial fulfillment of the recipient's contractual obligation by the practice of dentistry as provided for in this contract shall reduce the amount of restitution by a percentage based on the number of whole months that the recipient has practiced dentistry in an approved location and the total number of months of the contractual obligation the recipient has incurred.
