If Buyer's notice indicates proper performance was achieved as described above or Buyer fails to give any notice within those 45 days, then its purchase, obligations vest on the sooner of the date of the notice or that 45th day. iii. If Buyer's notice indicates that proper performance was not achieved as described above, then Buyer will grant Adaptive Broadband access to its related facilities, equipment, personnel and test procedures and records and allow Adaptive Broadband the opportunity to repair, replace, or otherwise test those Products, with all expenses for Adaptive Broadband time, travel, and related repairs, replacements and tests being borne by Adaptive Broadband. If Buyer reasonably determines within 10 days following the initial 45 day period that those first Products still do not perform in accordance with Adaptive Broadband's published specifications in all material respects, then Buyer's purchase obligations beyond that first shipment are waived, null and void. However, if Buyer does not so reasonably determine Product non- performance within those additional 10 days, then its purchase obligations vest on that 45th day. iv.
