will be made in writing in the form attached to Exhibit B and will be
attached and incorporated into this Agreement as an Attachment to this
Agreement.
5.2 All Change Orders must be mutually agreed by the parties and comply with
Section 5.1. Pending such agreement, AGILENT will continue to perform and
be paid as if such Change Order had not been requested or recommended,

the right to terminate the affected Statement of Work pursuant to Section

6. ACCEPTANCE
6.1 AGILENT will provide notice to CUSTOMER when the Deliverables are ready for
acceptance. Acceptance of Deliverables will occur upon the earlier of: a)
the date AGILENT demonstrates to CUSTOMER, by the successful completion of
acceptance tests, or that the Deliverables substantially conform to the
acceptance criteria specified in the applicable Statement of Work; or b)
the date that CUSTOMER uses any substantial part of the Deliverables for
any purpose other than performing acceptance tests. Acceptance of Component
Development and Deliverables Services will occur upon AGILENT's performance
of such Component Development and Deliverables Services and CUSTOMER's
acknowledging of its acceptance of such performance in writing.
6.2 In the event that any Deliverable fails to conform to the acceptance
criteria specified in the applicable Statement of Work or Product
Specifications, or otherwise do not comply with other provisions of this
Agreement, AGILENT will have a reasonable time to remedy such substantial
non-conformance, following AGILENT's receipt of written notice from
CUSTOMER specifying in reasonable detail the nature of such
non-conformance. In the event that AGILENT is unable to remedy the
non-conformance: a) CUSTOMER may accept the Deliverable without warranty,
on an "AS IS" basis, subject to an agreed upon price adjustment; or b)
CUSTOMER may return the Deliverable to AGILENT and receive a refund of
amounts paid to AGILENT for the Deliverable. All non-conforming
Deliverables returned by CUSTOMER to AGILENT and all replacements shipped
by AGILENT to CUSTOMER therefore will be at AGILENT'S risk and expense.
6.3 If acceptance testing is delayed for reasons attributable to CUSTOMER,
acceptance will be deemed to occur on the [ * ] day after notice by AGILENT
that the Deliverable is ready for acceptance testing.

the Deliverable without additional charge or, at CUSTOMER's request and
direction, correct such non-conformance or provide a remedy which
substantially corrects the non-conformance.

obligations, AGILENT will refund the paid price stated in the Statement of
Work upon prompt return of the affected Deliverable to AGILENT, and/or
delivery to AGILENT of proof of the destruction of the affected
Deliverable.
7.6 The warranties provided in this Section 7 will not apply in the event of
deemed acceptance under Sections 6.1, 6.2 or 6.3above, or to defects or
