complete and ready for operation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Customer later discovers any
<br />additional Minor Deficiencies in the Services following the Substantial Completion Date, the Customer's sole
<br />recourse and exclusive remedy for the Company's failure to complete any Minor Deficiencies identified in the
<br />Punch List items in accordance with this Master Agreement is to seek its sole and exclusive remedy in accordance
<br />with Article 5, Warranty.
<br />4.2.3 Correction of Punch List Items. Prior to receiving a Notice of Substantial Completion,
<br />the Customer agrees it will identify and deliver to the Company a Punch List which lists one or more Minor
<br />Deficiencies in an ECO. Following such identification and receipt of a Punch List, the Company shall work
<br />diligently to complete or correct such items and work listed in the Punch List within a reasonable time period. Upon
<br />completion of any Punch List items, the Company shall deliver a written notification of Punch List completion to the
<br />Customer.
<br />4.2.4 Payment Unconditional Upon Substantial Completion. The Customer acknowledges that,
<br />notwithstanding the existence of any Minor Deficiencies, regardless of their inclusion in a Punch List, the Customer
<br />unconditionally agrees to make payment to the Company for the ECO's listed in a Notice of Substantial Completion
<br />once the ECO's are Substantially Complete in accordance with the applicable Implementation Services
<br />Authorization Form. The Customer acknowledges that, upon the Substantial Completion Date of an ECO, the
<br />Customer's payment obligation set forth in the Feasibility Report for the ECO (notwithstanding the existence of
<br />Minor Deficiencies or the failure of the Company to properly complete or correct such Minor Deficiencies), is
<br />absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including,
<br />without limitation, any set-off, abatement, counterclaim, suspension, recoupment, reduction, rescission, defense or
<br />other right. The Customer's sole recourse and exclusive remedy for the Company's failure to complete any Minor
<br />Deficiencies identified in the Punch List items in accordance with this Master Agreement is to seek its sole and
<br />exclusive remedy in accordance with Article 5, Warranty.
<br />4.2.5 Notice of Final Acceptance. Upon (i) the Customer's execution of the Notice of
<br />Substantial Completion, and in accordance with the process set forth in Section 4.3.2 to correct any material defects
<br />or deficiencies identified by the Customer, and (ii) the Company's completion of Minor Deficiencies identified in
<br />Punch List as set forth in Sections 4.2.3 and 4.2.4, the Company shall deliver a Notice of Final Acceptance to the
<br />Customer to execute. A sample of a Notice of Final Acceptance is attached to this Master Agreement as Schedule
<br />D. Subject to the requirements of Florida Statutes section 218.70 et. seq. ( the "Local Government Prompt Payment
<br />Act") the Customer acknowledges that the Customer unconditionally agrees to make final payment to the Company
<br />for the ECO's listed as of the Final Acceptance Date, or are deemed to be, complete in accordance with this Master
<br />Agreement. The Customer acknowledges that, upon the Final Acceptance Date of an ECO, the Customer's payment
<br />obligation of the remaining ten percent (10%) of the Implementation Price set forth in the Feasibility Report for the
<br />ECO, is absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever,
<br />including, without limitation, any set-off, abatement, counterclaim, suspension, recoupment, reduction, rescission,
<br />defense or other right. The Customer's exclusive recourse for any claim regarding the Implementation Services
<br />following the Final Acceptance Date is to seek its sole and exclusive remedy in accordance with Article 5,
<br />Warranty.
<br />4.2.6 Reliance. The provisions of Article 4 may be relied on by the Company and by any
<br />assignee of the Company in connection with the furnishing of ECO financing to the Customer in accordance with
<br />the provisions of the Master Agreement. Any assignee of the Company shall be entitled to the rights, but not the
<br />obligations, of the Company under this Article 4.
<br />4.2.7 ECO Responsibility. Unless otherwise mutually agreed to by the Parties, the Company
<br />assumes no responsibility for performance or maintenance of ECO's, which are to be insured by the Customer. No
<br />Vendor is an agent of Company, and no Vendor or employee of any Vendor is authorized to waive, supplement or
<br />otherwise alter any terms, conditions, or agreement between the Company and the Customer.
<br />4.2.8 Training. If applicable, and if set forth in a Customer -authorized implementation of a
<br />Feasibility Report pursuant to a Customer -authorized Implementation Services Authorization Form, the Company
<br />shall provide on-site training for a reasonable number of the Customer's operating personnel with respect to
<br />completed ECO's, and the Customer shall assist in such training, all as more fully specified in the Feasibility Report.
