Additionally, after final acceptance, at least five members of Seller’s group shall have access to the facility for testing and tour purposes after giving reasonable notice to Purchaser the access to which will not be unreasonably withheld.

3. The Purchaser shall issue a Certificate of Commercial Acceptance in accordance with the provisions of Article 9(D)(1).

8. The Date of Commercial Acceptance, Provisional Acceptance and Final Acceptance, as the case may be, shall be deemed to have occurred with respect to a Segment or the System if a Certificate of Commercial Acceptance, a Certificate of Provisional Acceptance or a Certificate of Final Acceptance is issued with respect thereto.

B. Notice of Acceptance or Rejection

1. Within thirty (30) days of receipt by Purchaser and Licensed Engineer that preliminary work is finished or a Report has been provided to Purchaser, the Purchaser must issue a notification to the Seller of one of the following:

(a) issue a Certificate of Provisional Acceptance in accordance with Article 9(C); or

(b) not issue a Certificate of Provisional Acceptance, but instead the issue of a Certificate of Commercial Acceptance in accordance with Article 9(D) below; or

(c) reject the System in its existing condition and provide a written explanation of reasons for rejection and not issue a Certificate of Provisional Acceptance nor a Certificate of Commercial Acceptance,.

2. On receipt of a notice from the Purchaser pursuant to Article 9(B)(1)(c) above, the Seller shall be entitled to address any disputes and explain any discrepancies to the Purchaser regarding the results of the Acceptance Testing within sixty (60) days of such notice. Unless Purchaser, for good cause, rejects such explanation, it shall issue a new notice pursuant to Article 9(B)(1) above, which shall be deemed to have been issued on the date of the original notice.

3. In case of rejection, and if the explanation by the Seller as in Article 9(B)(2) above is not accepted, for good cause, by the Purchaser, the Seller shall carry out the necessary corrective actions and will effect a new series of Acceptance Testing ("Retesting").

2. Not Applicable

D. Commercial Acceptance

1. A Certificate of Commercial Acceptance shall be issued by Purchaser with respect to the System if the results of the Acceptance Testing demonstrate that such System does not justify the issuance of a Certificate of Provisional Acceptance, but nevertheless, such System is Ready for Commercial Acceptance.

2. Each Certificate of Commercial Acceptance shall have annexed to it a mutually agreed list of all outstanding items to be completed by the Seller.

3. Omitted

4. When the outstanding items referenced in Article 9(D)(3) above have been remedied, and the System otherwise Ready for Provisional Acceptance, the Purchaser will promptly issue a Certificate of Provisional Acceptance.

1. If the Purchaser, in its sole discretion, chooses to accept a Segment prior to accepting the System, then upon (i) payment of all amounts listed in the Draw Schedule with respect to a Segment and (ii) the issuance of a Certificate of Commercial Acceptance or a Certificate of Provisional Acceptance with respect to such Segment by the Purchaser in accordance with this Contract, title (free and clear of all liens other than those deriving through or from the Purchaser) to such Segment shall vest in the Purchaser.
