manufactured, controlled and released according to the Specifications and all
relevant QS requirements at the Facility stipulated under Section 3.1 above.
Without limiting the foregoing, if NBC's performance of the inspection and
applicable testing procedures described in Exhibit D requires [C.I.], then DUSA
agrees to either (i) [C.I.] or (ii) [C.I.]; provided that in either such case
the following shall apply: NBC shall hold such equipment at NBC's risk and shall
replace the same if they are lost, damaged or destroyed. NBC shall maintain such
equipment in good condition (subject to normal wear and tear); and such
equipment shall be subject to [C.I.] upon expiration or termination of this

3.3 Acceptance/Returns.
3.3.1 General. Acceptance by DUSA of Light Source units
delivered by NBC hereunder shall be subject to inspection and applicable testing
as generally described in Exhibit D by DUSA or its designee. If on such
inspection DUSA or its designee discovers that any Light Source shipped
hereunder fails to materially conform with the Specifications or otherwise fails
to materially conform to the warranties given by NBC in Section 6.1 below, DUSA
or such designee may reject such Light Source, which rejection shall be
accomplished by giving written notice to NBC specifying the manner in which such
Light Source fails to meet the foregoing requirements and request a Return
Material Authorization ("RMA") from NBC. DUSA or its designee shall return the
nonconforming Light Source in accordance with NBC's reasonable instructions with
the RMA attached [C.I.]. Upon receipt of the nonconforming Light Source NBC
shall promptly issue to DUSA a credit for all amounts invoiced (including
shipping and handling charges) for such Light Source. NBC shall use its best
efforts to replace the Light Source returned by DUSA within the shortest
possible time. The replacement of nonconforming Light Source units shall have
priority over the supply of Light Source units ordered for shipment under
Section 2.2 prior to the return or any time after the return of the
nonconforming Light Source unit to NBC. The warranties given by NBC in Section
6.1 below shall survive any failure to reject by DUSA under this Section 3.3.
3.3.2 Settlement of Claims. In case of a disagreement between
the parties regarding whether a particular Light Source unit materially complies
with the Specifications, the claim shall be [C.I.] or [C.I.] mutually agreed
upon by the parties [C.I.], the appointment of which shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed by either party. The determination of [C.I.] with respect to
such dispute shall be final and binding upon the parties. The parties and the
[C.I.] shall use their best efforts to [C.I.] as set forth above. The fees and
expenses of the [C.I.] shall be paid [C.I.] is made.

Source to have defects which are not be discovered upon reasonable physical
inspection or testing ("Latent Defects"). As soon as either party becomes aware
of a Latent Defect in any Light Source it shall immediately notify the other
party as to the serial number(s) of the Light Source(s) involved, which at
DUSA's election, shall be deemed rejected as of the date of such notice. NBC
agrees to [C.I.] all Light Source(s) so involved [C.I.]. For purposes of this
Section 3.4, "defect" shall mean that a Light Source fails to conform to the
warranties given by NBC herein; however, "defect" for purposes of the foregoing,
shall [C.I.].
3.5 Presence at Facility. Upon [C.I.] given by DUSA to NBC, DUSA shall
have the right to assign a reasonable number of employees or consultants of DUSA
to inspect and audit the Facility at which Light Source are manufactured in
order to verify NBC's compliance with QS and other agreed requirements,
provided, however that (i) such employees or consultants shall not unreasonably
interfere with other activities being carried out at the Facility, (ii) that
such employees or consultants shall observe all rules and regulations applicable
to visitors and to individuals employed at the Facility, and (iii) such
employees or consultants agree to maintain the Confidential Information of NBC
in accordance with Article 9 below.
3.6 Changes. DUSA shall have the right to modify the Specifications
from time to time. All such modifications shall be in writing and shall be
signed by an authorized representative of DUSA and NBC, and shall be effective
for orders of applicable units placed after such notice. If such modifications
result in a material change in [C.I.] as shown by [C.I.], the parties shall
agree upon [C.I.] of the Light Source hereunder; and if such modifications
result in a delay in delivery, the parties shall negotiate a reasonable
extension of the affected lead times. NBC shall not make any changes in the
manufacturing process, materials or critical suppliers without the prior written
consent of DUSA which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

NBC HEREBY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR
[C.I.]. EXCEPT FOR LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF ARTICLE 11 BELOW AND NOTWITHSTANDING
ANYTHING HEREIN TO THE CONTRARY, [C.I.].
6.3 Warranty Service. During the Warranty Period, NBC agrees, [C.I.]
