     material sources thereof in accordance with subsections 16.2 and 16.3.

     proposed changes within no more than sixty (60) days of receipt of a
     written request.  Netpliance shall acknowledge receipt of Supplier's
     proposed change within seven (7) days of receipt.  Supplier will not change
     or modify the Product or Spare Parts without Netpliance prior written
     approval.  Netpliance and Supplier will make best efforts to expedite the
