Product Changes; Retrofit Activities. AMS shall have the right at any time (i) to change the design or specifications of any Equipment without notice and without obligation to make the same or any similar change on any Equipment previously purchased by Agency; and (ii) to retrofit or replace (during routine maintenance or otherwise) any Equipment to incorporate any upgrades or updates then available. However, nothing herein shall obligate AMS to provide Agency with all new models of Equipment at no additional cost, and AMS may charge a fee for Equipment model upgrades in certain circumstances including, but not limited to, a new line of products or a change in underlying technology or technological advancements requiring significant changes to an existing Equipment model. Regarding the foregoing, in any case where AMS charges a fee for an Equipment model upgrade, it will provide no less than six (6) months’ notice to Agency prior to discontinuing the sale or rental of the discontinued Equipment model. In addition, AMS will continue to offer repair and/or replacement services for the discontinued Equipment models under the Maintenance and Repair Policy referenced in this Section 7 for no less than three (3) years after the date of notice of Equipment discontinuation as provided by AMS to Agency.
