Summary: 
This paper proposes a method to generate exceptional scenarios from a normal scenario written with a scenario language. This method includes (1) generation of exceptional plans and (2) generation of exceptional scenario by a user's selection of these plans. The proposed method enables users to decrease the omission of the possible exceptional scenarios in the early stages of development. The method will be illustrated with some examples.
