Scientology has already violated the agreement

 WHEREAS, in October of 1991, the key officials of the Church, David
 Miscavige and Mark Rathbun, approached the Service seeking to
 negotiate the resolution of the above-described matters, and met with
 the then Commissioner;

This is the meeting that they claim didn't take place!

 2. Zolin. The Service further agrees that following dismissal of the
 litigation listed on Exhibit II-2 as Zolin, it shall use its best
 efforts to return to the CTCC all materials and all copies thereof
 produced to the Service in response to the summons at issue in that
 litigation by no later than April 1, 1994. The CTCC hereby certifies
 that CSI shall retain all such materials during the transition period.
 No inference shall be drawn from the fact the Service is returning
 these materials that they were summonsed for an improper law
 enforcement purpose and the CTCC agrees not to assert such an
 inference in any future litigation.

Well, well... these are the tapes that could prove that scientology is criminal! I always wondered why nothing was heard about this litigation after the supreme court decision.

 4. The Service hereby issues individual determination letters (copies
 attached as Exhibits III-15 and III-16, respectively) that the
 following Scientology-related entities are organizations described in
 Code sections 501 (c) (3), 170 (c) (2), 509 (a) (1) and, 170 (b) (1)
 (A) (vi):
 
 The Way to Happiness Foundation ("TWTH")
 
 Association for Better Living and Education ("ABLE")

Yet another evidence that these are part of scientology. Not that anyone would doubt this, but they still claim that they are independent.

And here again:

 Thus, for example, Citizens Commission
 on Human Rights, National Commission on Law Enforcement and Social
 Justice, Scientology Defense Fund Trust, Association for the Better
 Living and Education, Applied Scholastics Incorporated, Narconon
 International, The Way to Happiness Foundation, and the Foundation for
 Religious Freedom are Scientology-related entities.

(!!!!!! That "foundation" is the one that runs CAN !!!!!!!!)

There is a large part on "self-dealing". This seems to be giving money to people who are not part of scientology:

 iii. furnishing of goods, services, or facilities between a
 Scientology-related entity and a disqualified person;

For example, supporting Dennis Erlich's or William T. Jordan's Ex-wives.

Here another good one:

 b. On Individual CTCC members. There is hereby imposed on the
 agreement of any Individual CTCC member to the making of an
 expenditure or undertaking an activity, knowing that it is a
 noncharitable expenditure, a penalty equal to 2 1/2 percent of the
 amount involved, unless such an agreement is not willful and is due to
 reasonable cause.

People who have knowledge of such activities should reference the proper number in the agreement. If enough such activities are found, this might "revive" the Scientology IRS litigation!

It can get better:

 1. If there has been (i) willful, repeated and flagrant misconduct,
 and (ii) a failure to correct such misconduct, giving rise to
 penalties under paragraphs B. and/or C. of this section VI., there is
 imposed on the Corporate members of the CTCC a penalty equal to
 50,000,000ドル.

Wow! That's a lot of $$.

 10. The members of the CTCC shall, no later than December 31, 1995,
 effectuate the dissolution of WISE, Inc. and the transfer of all of
 its assets, including but not limited to its rights to the Scientology
 religious marks, to the Inspector General Network.

Well, here we have a first violation.
