EXHIBIT 10.6
PURCHASE AND RESALE AGREEMENT
This Agreement is entered into by and between EXCEL, INC., a corporation
organized under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, with its usual
place of business at 355 Old Plymouth Road, Sagamore Beach, Massachusetts
(hereinafter called "Excel") and
BOSTON TECHNOLOGY, INC., whose address is, 100 Quannapowitt Parkway
Wakefield Ma.(hereinafter called "BTI"). This agreement shall constitute the
entire agreement between the parties and shall supersede any and all previous
agreements with respect to the subject matter hereof.
1. EQUIPMENT PURCHASE AND SOFTWARE LICENSE
a. BTI agrees to purchase and by its acceptance, Excel agrees to sell
and/or license (as applicable), on the terms set forth below, the equipment and
spare parts together with all applicable Software, as that term is further
defined below (collectively referred to as the "Products") listed on the
attached Exhibit I or listed on any of BTI's purchase orders referencing this
Agreement ("Purchase Orders").
b. This Agreement shall not constitute an obligation of BTI to purchase
and/or license any Product(s) unless either (a) implemented by Purchase Orders
issued by BTI, or (b) Otherwise required by Exhibit II.
c. The parties agree that each of BTI's Purchase Orders shall be only an
offer to enter into a contract. Subject to the parameters of Exhibit II, BTI may
revoke, amend or modify each Purchase Order at any time prior to Excel's
acceptance of same.
d. Within five (5) days of receipt of a Purchase Order, Excel shall issue
a Sales Order or similar notice acknowledging its acceptance or rejection of
BTI's Purchase Order and advising BTI of Excel's delivery schedule. Excel's
failure to issue a Sales Order or similar notice within said five (5) day time
period shall constitute Excel's acceptance of BTI's Purchase Order.
2. PRICES
a. The prices, license fees, and other charges for the Products are set
forth in Excel's price list as attached as Exhibits I and II of this Agreement,
prices to be amended from time to time. Any change in prices will become
effective ninety (90) days after Excel has delivered notice of such change to
BTI in writing, and all orders accepted by Excel at expiration of said ninety
day notice period shall be invoiced at the new price.
Excel agrees that it shall, for all sales of its equipment to BTI , limit
said price increases to 15 % per year, for two years, which period shall begin
to run on upon the signing hereof.
-2-
Notwithstanding the above, BTI shall be entitled to rely on those prices in
effect on Exhibits I and II at the time it gives written quotes to its
customers. Any increase in such prices made in accordance with the previous
paragraph will not apply to Purchase Orders subsequently issued by BTI in
connection with such quotes, provided Purchase Order issuance occurs not later
than six months after the corresponding quote. BTI must furnish to Excel copies
of any such quotes in order for this paragraph to become binding upon Excel.
b. Purchase Orders accepted by Excel shall not be subject to such price
increases before the end of said ninety (90) day period. All prices expressed
and all payments made must be in U.S. dollars. The prices shown are F.O.B.
Excel's plant.
c. Prices are exclusive of all federal, state, local, municipal, or other
excise, sales, use, occupation, or similar taxes now in force or enacted in the
future, all of which shall be paid by BTI exclusive of Excel's income taxes. BTI
shall not be responsible for any tax levied or based upon the income of Excel.
Excel may invoice BTI for any such taxes and remit any payments made on such
invoice directly to the appropriate taxing authorities. It shall be BTI's
responsibility to provide written proof, satisfactory to Excel of any applicable
tax exemptions.
d. The prices for Products contained herein, with applicable discounts
and with any increase permitted hereunder, shall be at least as favorable as
these prices and discounts offered by Excel to any of its other customers for
comparable Products. If Excel at any time extends to any other customer lower
prices or higher discounts for any Products, then Excel shall promptly notify
BTI in writing and extend such favorable prices or discounts to BTI as of the
date such prices or discounts were first offered to any other customer of Excel.
If, after the effective date of a resulting price decrease, BTI shall have
overpaid for affected Products at the preexisting price, then the amount of the
overpayment shall be allowed as a credit against the price of Products on an
existing Purchase Order for which payment has not been made.
Notwithstanding the above, EXCEL may, at its sole option and discretion,
provide more favorable pricing or greater discounts to third parties purchasing
limited numbers of systems (i) for Product evaluation, testing, developmental or
beta site installations, or (ii) as an inducement to a third party to order
Products in quantity, without triggering this provision.
3. PAYMENT
a. Payment for Products is due on or before the date specified on Excel's
invoice, that is, net thirty (30) days after receipt of Product or invoice
whichever is later.
b. All balances due Excel by BTI not paid within thirty (30) days after
due date shall accrue a late payment fee equal to 1.5% per month on such unpaid
amounts together with all costs and expenses including reasonable attorney's
fees incurred by Excel in collecting such overdue amounts. Any payment made by
BTI to Excel shall first be applied to the late payment fees and costs and
expenses incurred in collection and then to the oldest invoice due, regardless
of any contrary instructions received from BTI.
4. DELIVERY
-3-
a. Excel's normal delivery schedule is ninety (90) days after receipt and
acceptance of an order. This delivery schedule is expressly conditioned upon the
accuracy of the Product purchase forecast and volume purchase commitments
supplied to Excel by BTI in Exhibit II to this Agreement. Should BTI desire to
shorten (or lengthen) said delivery schedule, Excel shall use reasonable efforts
to comply with BTI'S request. Excel shall, within two (2) business days of such
request, notify BTI if additional charges are required to facilitate any
expedited delivery. BTI shall have 24 hours from said notification to elect to
proceed with expedited delivery at the specified additional cost or to proceed
under the normal delivery schedule at the original price.
b. Excel will not assume any liability in connection with shipment for
any loss or damage caused by any carrier. Upon request, shipments will be
insured at the BTI's expense, and BTI shall be responsible for making claims
with carriers, insurers, warehousemen, and others for its and/or their
misdelivery, nondelivery, loss, damage or delay.
c. BTI may inspect and test all Products at reasonable times during and
after manufacture. If any such inspection or test is to be made on Excel's
premises, BTI shall first give Excel 10 days notice in writing of its desire to
make such inspection. Excel shall provide reasonable facilities and assistance
for the safety and convenience of BTI's inspectors in such manner that shall not
unreasonably hinder or delay Excel's performance. All Products shall be received
subject to BTI's inspection, testing, approval and acceptance at its premises,
notwithstanding any inspection or testing at Excel's premises or any prior
payment for such Products. Products rejected by BTI as not conforming to the
relevant Purchase Order or to Excel's or BTI's Specifications (as applicable)
may be returned to Excel at BTI's risk and expense and shall not be replaced by
Excel without BTI's written authorization.
5. SHIPMENT, RISK OF LOSS, TITLE
a. All Products shall be packaged, marked and otherwise prepared for
shipment by Excel in suitable containers in accordance with BTI's packing and
shipping specifications for such Products, or if no such specifications are
given to Excel, in accordance with sound commercial practices. Excel shall mark

modifications to the Products. Should BTI fail to provide notice of said
disapproval in writing to Excel as prescribed above, Excel shall assume BTI's
consent to the incorporation of such modifications for use by BTI, and shall
invoice BTI for the products so delivered. If BTI disapproves of such
modifications for its use, BTI shall have the right, within sixty days (60) of
such disapproval, to place additional purchase orders for Products without such
modifications, provided that BTI's requested shipping dates for such Products
occur within the succeeding six (6) month period. Upon such disapproval, BTI
shall within ten (10) days, either return the Products so modified to Excel , or
be invoiced for such Products.
Should Excel determine that any of such modifications do not alter the
form, fit, or function of said Products such that they remain functionally
equivalent to the Products they are to replace, Excel shall notify BTI in
writing of said change but shall not be obligated to provide a sample of such
Product to BTI for testing or evaluation.
b. The parties agree that this section 9. a. is not meant to cover
changes made to the Products by Excel to correct errors in the Products that
have been either reported by BTI or discovered by Excel. The parties further
agree that nothing in section 9. a. above should be interpreted as a restriction
on Excel's right to generally commercially distribute the Products with the
design modifications described herein.
c. Excel agrees that any new Products that it develops during the term of
this Agreement and which it makes generally commercially available, shall be
made available to BTI pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof.
10. NOTICES

forth in DOD FAR Supplement at 52.227-7013(b). BTI also agrees to inform all
U.S. Government Contracting Officers, when applicable, that the Products are
commercial software and subject to the restrictions described above.
12. PATENT AND COPYRIGHT INDEMNITY
a. If notified promptly in writing of any action (and all prior claims
relating to such action) brought against BTI based on a claim that any of the
Products supplied to BTI infringes a patent, copyright or trademark, Excel shall
defend such action at its sole expense and pay any costs or damages finally
awarded in such action which are attributable to such claim; provided that Excel
shall have sole control of the defense of any such action and all negotiations
for its settlement or compromise. Notwithstanding the provisions of the previous
sentence, Excel's obligation to defend as stated therein shall not be excused in
the event that BTI engages its own counsel at its own expense, to assist BTI in
determining the relevant issues in, and the merits of, said claims and to
provide general advice with respect to such claims. If an injunction is obtained
against BTI's use of any of the Products by reason of infringement of a patent,
copyright or trademark, or if in Excel's opinion any of the Products hereunder
is likely to become the subject of a successful claim of infringement of a
patent, copyright or trademark, Excel shall, at its option and expense, either
procure for BTI the right to continue using such Product or replace or modify
the same so that it becomes noninfringing or if neither of the foregoing
alternatives are possible, grant BTI a credit for such Product (as depreciated
in the case of equipment over four (4) years) and accept its return.
b. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Excel shall not have any liability to
BTI under the foregoing provision if such infringement or claim is based upon.
1. the use of any of the Products in combination with other
equipment or software which is not furnished by Excel where the Products would
not, by themselves, be infringing.
c. If notified promptly in writing of any action (and all prior claims
relating to such action) brought against Excel based on a claim that any of the
Products that were Manufactured or supplied by Excel in Compliance with BTI'S
written designs, specifications or instructions, or any designs, specifications
or instructions relayed to Excel orally by BTI which are confirmed by Excel in
writing to BTI, ("BTI designed Products") infringes a patent, copyright or
trademark, then BTI shall defend such action at its sole expense and pay costs
or damages finally awarded in such action which are attributable to such claim,
provided however, that BTI shall have sole control of the defense of any such
action and all negotiations for its settlement or compromise. Notwithstanding
the provisions of the previous sentence, BTI'S obligation to defend as stated
therein shall not be excused in the event that Excel engages its own counsel at
its own expense to
-9-
assist Excel in determining the relevant issues in, and merits of, said claims
and to provide general advice with respect to said claims.
d. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Section 12.c. above, BTI
shall not have any liability to Excel if such infringement or claim is based
upon:
1. The use of any of the BTI Designed Products in combination with
other equipment or software which is manufactured or supplied by Excel and is
not in compliance with BTI'S written designs, specifications or instructions
and/or where BTI Designed Products would not, by themselves, be infringing.
e. In no event shall either party's total liability to the other party
under section 12.a. or 12.c. respectively exceed two (2) times the aggregate sum
paid to EXCEL by BTI for the allegedly infringing Products or Programs.
f. The foregoing provision state the entire liability of Excel and BTI
with respect to infringement of patents, trademarks or copyrights by any of the
Products or any part thereof or their operation.

a. Excel hereby agrees that, within thirty (30) days of the effective
date of this Agreement, it will place in escrow with Data Securities
International, Inc. ("DSI") all materials necessary for BTI to manufacture the
Products, including but not limited to, blueprints, artwork, process sheets,
test procedures, tooling drawings, schematics, computer software source code,
performance specifications and all related documentation. BTI agrees that it
shall pay all fees associated with said deposit in escrow for the entire term of
Escrow.
b. Excel agrees, on an ongoing basis, to promptly provide DSI with any
modifications or improvements of any materials placed in escrow pursuant to this
Section 16. and to notify BTI of any such modifications or improvements
promptly.
c. In the event that any of the release conditions described below (the
"Release Conditions") occurs, then the parties agree that: (1) DSI shall release
to BTI all materials held in escrow; (2) Excel will grant to BTI a royalty-free
license to manufacture such Products; and (3) BTI shall utilize such materials
only to manufacture or otherwise procure Products to satisfy existing Purchase
Orders and forecasted orders as required by Exhibit II, and to support existing
Products already distributed by BTI. BTI further agrees to treat such materials
as the Proprietary Information of Excel subject to the provisions of Section
17.d below.
-13-
d. For the purpose of this Section 16., the Release Conditions shall mean
one or more of the following events:
(1) Excel commits a material breach of its obligations hereunder and
fails to cure such breach within forty five (45) days of the receipt of notice
from BTI which details such breach; or
(2) Excel fails to continue to do business in the ordinary course,
which failure continues for more than forty five (45) days; or
(3) One of the following circumstances materially affect Excel's
ability to comply with the terms of this Agreement and such condition remains
uncorrected for more than sixty (60) days:
(i) entry of an order for relief by or against Excel under Title 11
of the United States Code;
(ii) the making by Excel of a general Assignment for the benefit of
creditors;
(iii) the appointment of a general receiver of trustee in bankruptcy
of Excel's business or property; or
(iv) action by Excel under any state insolvency or similar law for
the purpose of its bankruptcy, reorganization or liquidation.
17. GENERAL
a. The obligations of Excel under this Agreement shall be subject to the
procurement by, and at the expense of, BTI of any import or export licenses,
documents, permits or clearances required with respect to this Agreement and are
subject to the condition precedent that all necessary approvals from
governmental authorities (including exchange control authorities) have been
obtained. BTI agrees to comply with all laws applicable to BTI as they relate to
the Products, of the United States of America and its states at all times and
shall not take or refrain from taking any action which would result in the
violation of such laws by Excel. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be
construed as creating a joint venture, partnership or employment relationship
between Excel and BTI.
b. If the financial condition of BTI at any time does not justify
continuation of the work called for, or shipment on the terms of payment
originally specified, Excel, in its sole discretion, may require full payment in
advance of delivery.
c. The validity, construction and interpretation of this Agreement and
the rights and duties of the parties hereto shall be governed and construed in
accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, excluding its
conflict of law rules.
-14-
d. BTI agrees it shall protect all such information and hold such
information so provided in accordance with the provisions of the Mutual Non-
Disclosure Agreement between the parties, dated February 3, 1994.
e. This Agreement and the above referenced Non-Disclosure Agreement is
the complete and exclusive statement of this agreement between the parties and
supersedes all prior agreements and communications with respect to the subject
matter herein. Excel makes no representations to BTI except as expressly set
forth herein. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing, the terms of
this Agreement and the said Non-Disclosure Agreement shall apply and govern the
parties' dealings notwithstanding any proposed variations or additions which may
be contained in any Purchase Order or other communications submitted by BTI or
in any Sales Order or similar notice provided by Excel.
f. This Agreement may not be modified, amended or waived in whole or in
part, except by written agreement of the parties hereto. No Excel employee other
than its President, shall have any actual or apparent authority to modify the
terms of this Agreement in any way. Any authorized modifications shall be in
writing and signed by such representative of Excel. Any item or service
furnished by Excel in furtherance of this Agreement, although not specifically
identified herein, shall nevertheless be covered and governed by this Agreement
unless specifically covered by some other written agreement executed by BTI and
an authorized representative of Excel.
g. Either party may assign this Agreement, or any of its rights hereunder
or delegate any of its obligations hereunder, provided such party's transferee
agrees in writing to be bound by all of the provisions of this Agreement and
such writing is provided to the other party within a reasonable period of time
prior to the effective date of such assignment or delegation.
h. Section headings are for descriptive purposes only and shall not
control or alter the meaning of this Agreement.
i. All rights and remedies of either party shall be cumulative and may be
exercised singularly or concurrently. The failure of either party, in any one or
more instances, to enforce any of the terms of this Agreement shall not be
construed as a waiver of future enforcement of that or any other term.
j. If any provisions of this Agreement shall for any reason be held
illegal or unenforceable, such provisions shall be deemed separable from the
remaining provisions of this Agreement and shall in no way affect or impair the
validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement.
k. In the event either party is unable, in its reasonable judgment, to
perform in accordance with this Agreement, due in whole or in part to any cause
beyond the party's control, including without limitation, Acts of God, acts of
the enemy, events of war, embargoes, strikes, lockouts, dispute with workers,
shortage of fuel, unusually severe weather conditions, fires, floods,
earthquakes, and unreasonably dangerous situations, the affected party shall
promptly notify the other party in writing and the date of performance shall be
extended for a period equal
-15-
to the period of such delay. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such period of
delay extends beyond ninety (90) days, the other party may, upon written notice
to the affected party, terminate this Agreement with no further liability except
for any payments owed and then due.
18. TERMINATION
This Agreement shall terminate two years from the date of the signing
hereof. Unless otherwise notified in writing by Excel 6 months prior to any
termination date, this Agreement shall be automatically renewed for successive
two year periods.
-16-
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have signed this Agreement this 27th
day of May, 1994.

DEMAND FORECAST
AND
DISCOUNT SCHEDULE
Demand Forecast
- ---------------
As required by the Purchase and Resale Agreement, BTI will provide a rolling
demand forecast for all Excel Products as described below. This demand forecast
will be used in determining a discount rate for all BTI purchases of Products.
A demand forecast will include an estimated quarterly purchase of specific Excel
Products (by Excel part numbers) and their quantities during the next 12-month
period. This forecast will be revised by BTI at 3-month/quarterly intervals. BTI
will assure the accuracy of its demand forecast by issuing purchase orders to
meet at least a minimum purchase requirement for each forecast quarter as
specified below:
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Quarterly Minimum QDF Adjustment Parameter for QDF Adjustment Parameter for
Demand Forecast Purchase XLDX Products LNX Products
(QDF) Requirement for
Products in the QDF
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Current - Q1 100% 0% 0%
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q1+1 75% 0% + 15%
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q1+2 50% + 25% + 25%
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q1+3 25% + 50% + 50%
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In essence, at the beginning of each quarter, BTI is to make a 12-month purchase
commitment by issuing purchase orders (at 100% of QDF for current quarter - Q1,
at 75% of QDF for one quarter immediately follow the current quarter - Q1+1, at
50% of QDF for two quarters immediately follow the current quarter - Q1+2, and
at 25% of QDF for three quarters immediately follow the current quarter - Q1+3).
BTI is required to submit a new/revised QDF on or within one week from February
15, May 15, August 15, and November 15.
Upon revising a QDF at the beginning of each quarter, BTI will issue addendum
(to all relevant open purchase orders) to maintain the above minimum purchase
requirement. In lieu of delivery on a purchase order, a cancellation/restocking
charge will be assessed at 50% of purchase price.
Excel will rely on and utilize BTI's QDF in its material and resource planning
and all delivery obligations set forth herein shall only apply to those products
specified in QDF. Should the new/revised QDF contain orders for Products beyond
the specified QDF adjustment parameters,
Excel shall not be obligated to deliver those Products within the 90-day
delivery schedule contained in this Agreement. A 5% surcharge from list price
will also be added to the
EXHIBIT II PAGE 2 OF 2

- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3,000,001 to 10,000,000 35% 100%
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*Software discounts can only be applied to base software, ISDN/PRI software, and
PPL software.
OEM discounts (from list price) are applicable to all standard Excel Products.
Applicable discount rates are determined by an annualized "moving average" of
total purchases (based on list price) during a 4-quarter or one-year period.
This 4-quarter period consists of the current quarter (Q1), two quarters
immediately prior to the current quarter (Q1-1 and Q1-2), and one quarter
immediately following the current quarter (Q1+1).
The above discount schedule is effective on the date this agreement is signed.
It is not applicable to any previously issued BTI purchase orders.
Cash Discount
- -------------
Excel will extend an additional 1% discount (from list price) to BTI for
purchase orders received with down payments (at 33% of purchase price). Or, a 2%
discount (from list price) for each purchase commitment (with purchase orders)
at more than $2,000,000 and a down payment equal to 33% of purchase price.

EXTENDED WARRANTY AND SUPPORT PROGRAM
Excel offers Extended Warranty and Support services to its customers,
on all of its products, in the form of an annually renewable agreement. These
services are available to the Customer in four options; the "Prepaid Hardware
Extended Warranty and Support Program", the "Prepaid Software Extended Warranty
& Support Program", the "Hardware Extended Warranty & Support Program" and the
"Software Extended Warranty and Support Program". These Programs assure that the
Customer will have continuous support, and repair services available to it on
all Excel products, even after the initial warranty has expired.
PROCEDURE TO OBTAIN SERVICE
To obtain service under any of Excel's Extended Warranty Programs,
Customer shall contact Excel by phone, at 1-800-541-7002, and request such
service. Customer shall identify itself and present its Extended Warranty
Program identification number, together with the serial number of any piece of
equipment sought to be repaired under this Program. These numbers will be
verified by Excel, and subject to such verification, Customer shall be connected
to authorized Excel maintenance and support personnel.
Customer shall make available to such Excel personnel, one of its own
employees, previously trained in the Excel training program, to perform
recommended corrective services on Customer's site. Should the problem persist
after all efforts to remotely repair the product have been exhausted, EXCEL
shall provide the Customer with a return material authorization number, which
must accompany all returned items, and Customer shall then at its expense,
return the hardware to EXCEL for factory servicing. All returned items must be
appropriately packaged by Customer, in the original shipping container. EXCEL
shall then inspect the said hardware. If EXCEL, in its reasonable judgment,
determines that the hardware is functioning normally and in no need of repair,
EXCEL will return the hardware to the Customer, and shall invoice the Customer
in accordance with the price list for "Out of Warranty Service". If EXCEL in its
reasonable judgment determines that the hardware is defective, it shall, if
possible, repair the hardware at no cost to the Customer. All factory repaired
products shall be tested before return to Customer, and shall be continuously
warranted for the duration of the Extended Warranty Program. If EXCEL determines
in its reasonable judgment that the return item cannot be repaired, it shall
offer to Customer a replacement item for 50% of the item's list price.
EXCEL's standard time to repair and return hardware is 60 days from
receipt of such hardware by EXCEL. All repaired items will be shipped by EXCEL,
prepaid, (U.S. and Canada only) to Customer. Should Customer desire to shorten
said repair time, it shall so notify EXCEL and EXCEL shall notify Customer both
of the availability of such expedited repair, and the additional cost associated
with such expedited repair.
SOFTWARE SUPPORT
With the purchase of the "Prepaid Software Extended Warranty and
Support Program" or the "Software Extended Warranty and Support Program",
Customer shall be entitled to unlimited software support per year. Customer may
receive said support by calling the aforementioned number and requesting
software support.
ON SITE SERVICE
EXCEL will, subject to personnel availability, provide on site service
to Customer (Continental United States and Canada only) upon request. Upon
receipt of request for on site service, EXCEL shall send qualified technical
personnel to the site indicated by Customer, for on site repair or consultation.
Customer shall pay for all on site service. Customer will pay an hourly fee of
$100/hour, travel time included. Customer will also pay for all travel and
associated costs. It is suggested that Customer exhaust all possible remote
repair attempts before requesting on site service.
EXTENDED WARRANTY AND SUPPORT PROGRAM PRICING

of original purchase of equipment, or, after the original date of purchase with
EXCEL's approval. If purchased at the time of equipment purchase, or during the
initial warranty period, the Extended Warranty and Support Program will
automatically cover the Equipment for the first twelve months commencing with
the expiration of the initial warranty period. Under this option, Customer will
be invoiced at the time of initial equipment purchase. Should Customer desire to
purchase the Program after the initial warranty period has elapsed, EXCEL may,
at its option, refuse to supply said extended warranty coverage, or make its
acceptance conditional upon a satisfactory site survey of Customers Equipment,
at Customers expense. Should EXCEL elect to supply such service, the Extended
Warranty and Support Program will become effective upon signing of the Extended
Warranty and Support Agreement, and receipt of payment therefore by EXCEL. EXCEL
reserves the right not to renew the Extended Warranty and Support Program for
any reason.
The Extended Warranty and Support Program is offered at an annual
charge per system based on system configuration. The prices for said Program are
contained on the Extended Warranty and Support Program Price List attached
hereto. EXCEL reserves the right to modify its prices for the Extended Warranty
Programs, which modification shall become effective as of the next annual
renewal of said Program. EXCEL shall give Customer at least sixty days prior
written notice of any price increase.

together with its initial purchase of equipment, the price for the first year of
the Extended Warranty and Support Program will be discounted in accordance with
the attached price schedule.
