In the event that Coriell fails to obtain or maintain any insurance or maintenance agreement(s) covering the Subcontract‑funded Equipment as contemplated herein, following [****] days’ advance written notice (or such shorter notice as is required under the terms upon which any such agreement(s) may be obtained or maintained) by CDI to Coriell, provided such agreement(s) are not entered into by Coriell during such [****] day period (or shorter period as contemplated above), CDI may obtain and enter into such agreement(s) at reasonable market rates and terms, and/or pay the amounts payable by Coriell thereunder at Xxxxxxx’x cost and expense and may forward or issue (for reimbursement to CDI) to Coriell an invoice for such cost and expense, which invoice Coriell shall pay promptly following its receipt thereof.

Coriell shall, at its expense, keep the Subcontract-funded Equipment free and clear from any and all liens, pledges, security interests, encumbrances and other charges (collectively, “Encumbrances”).

Coriell shall be responsible for all costs relating to obtaining and delivering such title to CDI. The sale shall be on an “as is, where is, without warranty” basis (except as to title as set forth in the next preceding provision), and the parties shall execute such documentation as is reasonable and customary in connection with such sale including without limitation to transfer all manufacturer and supplier warranty rights (then not yet transferred to CDI) with respect to the Subcontract‑funded Equipment being purchased subject to any necessary manufacturer’s or supplier’s consent, which at the request of CDI the Parties shall cooperate to obtain.

CDI represents and acknowledges that the Subcontract-funded Equipment is of a size, design, capacity and manufacture selected by it, and that it is satisfied that the Subcontract‑funded Equipment is in those respects and of the type suitable for its purposes.

Subject to Xxxxxxx’x obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement, CDI shall look solely to the manufacturer or the supplier of the Subcontract-Funded Equipment for correction of any problems that may arise with respect thereto, and all transferable manufacturer and supplier warranty rights are, to the extent such rights have been acquired by Coriell, hereby assigned, free and clear of all Encumbrances that would in any way interfere with or limit the exercise by or benefit to CDI of any such warranty rights and otherwise without representation or warranty by Coriell to CDI for the Term, which warranties CDI is authorized to enforce at CDI’s sole cost and expense. Any non‑transferable warranty rights (including those for the transfer of which the manufacturer’s or supplier’s consent is required and has not been obtained for CDI’s benefit) shall be held, free and clear of Encumbrances that would in any way interfere with or limit the exercise by or benefit to CDI of any such warranty rights, and enforced, at CDI’s cost and expense, by Coriell for the benefit of and as requested by CDI during the Term.

Except as permitted by Section 8.c., above, CDI shall use the Subcontract-funded Equipment solely in the conduct of its business in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, in a manner and for the use contemplated by the manufacturer thereof, and in compliance with all laws, rules and regulations of every governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Subcontract-funded Equipment or CDI and with the provisions of all policies of insurance carried by CDI as required by this Agreement.

(the “Return Condition for Unpurchased Equipment”).

CDI shall be solely responsible, at its own expense, for the de-installation, packing, rigging and delivery of the Subcontract‑funded Equipment to CDI in the event of its purchase thereof pursuant to the exercise of its option in Section 8.x. Xxxxxxx shall be solely responsible, at its own expense, for the de-installation, packing, rigging and delivery to Coriell of each item of the Subcontract-funded Equipment with respect to which CDI declined to exercise its option (“Unpurchased Equipment”). In the case of any item of Unpurchased Equipment having a fair market value (as determined in accordance with Section 8.d) in excess of [****] Dollars ($[****]) at the expiration or termination of the Term, Coriell shall have such Unpurchased Equipment inspected and certified acceptable for maintenance service by the manufacturer or an authorized inspector of the manufacturer (to the extent such service is reasonably available for equipment of such type and age).
