approved prior to the placement of such order and production of the
modified design can be reasonably accomplished by January 1 of the
following year. Any tooling necessary to manufacture the Modified
Printer is to be paid for and will be owned by GTECH. In the event
GTECH and VENDOR have finally approved and tested the modified design,

parameters called forth in the product specification, Attachment 1, and
that the Product is not subject to any infant mortality.
8.1 VENDOR Survey. The VENDOR will allow GTECH to perform a VENDOR survey
at the VENDOR's facility or facilities. This survey will include, but

test equipment and/or develop procedures at no cost to GTECH which are
capable of correlation. Said test equipment and procedures will be
mutually agreed upon by both the VENDOR and GTECH Test Engineering,

activity will continue, at the discretion of GTECH Procurement Quality
Organization, throughout the life of the Product, or until such time as
the product meets or exceeds all requirements of the GTECH
Ship-To-Stock program.
8.5 Ship-To-Stock Program. The VENDOR will participate in the GTECH
Ship-To-Stock program. This program requires that the VENDOR's product
achieve a quality level sufficient for Ship-To-Stock status (minimum of

If, due to the VENDOR's inability to meet the Ship-To-Stock criteria,
GTECH OEM Purchasing, with approval by VENDOR, said approval not
unreasonably to be withheld, may recover all reasonable costs
associated with continued unacceptable quality by taking a credit
against the purchase price of the Products.
8.6 Failure Analysis and Corrective Actions. The VENDOR agrees to supply,
within fifteen (15) calendar days, written failure analysis and

confidentiality agreements with such third parties. [For purposes of
this Section, GTECH makes a good faith effort if it notifies the GTECH
General Counsel and the Vice Presidents in charge of Facilities
Management and Product Sales Contracts of the existence of this

and obligations in Section 18 by one party will cause the other party
substantial and continuing damage, the value of which will be difficult
or impossible to ascertain, and other irreparable harm for which the
payment of monetary damages alone will be inadequate. Therefore, in
addition to any other remedy which the potentially aggrieved party may
have under this Agreement or at law or in equity, in the event of such
a breach or threatened breach by a party of the restrictions and
obligations in Section 18, the potentially aggrieved party shall be
entitled to seek both
-21-

threatened breach, and to prevent further breaches of the restrictions
and obligations in question.

will immediately contact and consult with the other regarding the form

without consent shall include attempts to assign to parents or
subsidiaries of VENDOR or any transfer of a majority interest in VENDOR
or substantially all of VENDOR's assets. The consent by GTECH to any
assignment shall not constitute a waiver of the need for consents for
any further assignments. GTECH may not unreasonably withhold consent to
an assignment, and shall restrict its basis for withholding consent to
the proposed assignee's status as a competitor to GTECH, an entity of
inferior financial status to VENDOR or an entity whose business

III. Prices also will be adjusted to reflect any cost
saving achieved in accordance with Paragraph 9 of
this Attachment.

one half of any such approved cost reduction.
10. In the event GTECH and VENDOR approve the use of the Axiohm
printhead in the Modified Printer, VENDOR will reduce the
price of the Modified Printer by $52 to cover the elimination
of the Magnetec printhead, adjusted in accordance with
