                    subsequent to  delivery, for a period of three (3) months

                    rate of $_____  per  hour.   This warranty is void if any
                    changes, modifications,  additions, or  enhancements  are
                    made to the SYSTEM without our written authorization.

               You will  allow us,  without charge,  reasonable access to and
                    use of  your hardware  as may be necessary to diagnose or
                    repair any defect.

               Our warranty  shall not  apply to defects which are the result
                    of improper  handling or  use, or  in the  event that any
                    changes, modifications, additions, or enhancements to the
                    SYSTEM are made not in conformity with this Agreement.

               THE FOREGOING  WARRANTY IS  IN  LIEU  OF  ALL  OTHER
               WARRANTIES, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT
