the equipment and software meet the contractor published electronic documentation 
(“Specifications”). The Test Period shall be for 90 calendar days. If County has not given 
the contractor a written deficiency statement specifying how the equipment or software fails 
to meet the Specifications (“Deficiency Statement’) within the Test Period, the equipment 
and software shall be deemed accepted. If County provides a Deficiency Statement within 
the Test Period, the contractor shall have 30 calendar days to correct the deficiency, and 
the customer shall have an additional 60 calendar days to evaluate the equipment and 
software. If the equipment or software does not meet the Specifications at the end of the 
additional 60 calendar day period, the County may terminate this contract. Upon any such 
termination, contractor shall, at contractor’s cost, remove all equipment and software from 
County premises and equipment. County shall return all equipment and software to the 
contractor, and the contractor shall refund any monies paid by County to the contractor. 
Upon completion of these terms, neither party shall then have any further liability to the 
other for the products that were the subject of the acceptance test.
