EQUIPMENT PERFORMANCE GUARANTEES. For purposes of this section 1 of Part 1 addendum A only, the term "Availability Requirement" means the lesser of the Equipment availability requirement (or "utilization capability" or "100% uptime" requirement) as set forth in the Purchase Spec per SEMI E10-96. The warranty on a unit of Equipment will be extended one (1) month for each month that such Equipment performs below the Availability Requirement. Seller has the right to request a mutual review process, to review equipment performance data, at which Seller may exclude downtime caused by the Buyer in the availability calculations. This provision for warranty extensions does not apply until three (3) months after Equipment final acceptance. If the Availability Requirement is not met for more than six (6) consecutive months during the warranty period, Buyer may, at Buyer's option: (a) return Equipment for full credit; (b) obtain replacement parts, including major components, at no cost to Buyer; or (c) have the non-complying Equipment replaced with new Equipment within ninety (90) days. Warranty extensions may be reduced by one (1) month for every two (2) months that the Equipment performs better than three percent (3%) above the Availability Requirement. Buyer must be in general compliance with Seller's recommended or a mutually agreed upon preventative maintenance schedule for warranty extensions to be invoked. Extensions will be agreed upon within ninety (90) days after the month in which the Equipment performance dictated the extension.
