      2. the details of any material failure of the Deliverables to pass the Acceptance Tests.
  4. Subject to clause 24.5, if the Acceptance Tests indicate that a Deliverable does not comply with the Specifications in a material way, Customer must provide AMPS with a list of all non-compliances (including reasonable details of the non-compliance) and AMPS must remedy the non-compliances and re-perform part or all of the Acceptance Tests, as applicable. Customer may then conduct further Acceptance Tests in accordance with this clause 24.
  5. The Deliverables will be deemed to be Accepted by Customer on the earlier of:
    1. 5 Business Days of receipt of a Deliverable, if Customer has not provided an Acceptance Test Plan 15 Business Days prior to the scheduled date of delivery of the Deliverable;

    3. if Customer fails to commence the Acceptance Tests within 5 Business Days after the commencement of the Acceptance Test Period, the next Business Day after the expiry of that 5 Business Day period;
    4. completion of the remediation and successful re- performance of the Acceptance Tests; or
    5. such other date as may be agreed between the Parties,

    following which Customer must issue to AMPS a certificate of acceptance (“Certificate of Acceptance”). Failure to do so will not affect the fact that the Deliverables have been Accepted. The Deliverables may not be used in a production environment until they have been Accepted by Customer in accordance with the Contract.

  6. If any Deliverable fails Acceptance Tests twice, then Customer may by notice to AMPS either:
    1. extend the Acceptance Test Period;
    2. accept the Deliverable (or part of it) subject to a reduction in the applicable Price as agreed by the Parties at that time acting reasonably and in good faith;
    3. accept the Deliverable (or part of it) for use, subject to AMPS agreeing to fix any defects in the Deliverable within a reasonable time specified by Customer;

  4. If there is a breach of warranty in respect to the Services or Deliverables, AMPS must, at its option and cost, rectify the deficiency, re-perform the Service, re-supply the Deliverable or refund the amount paid for the deficient Deliverable.

  1. In accordance with Regulation 91 of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010, notice is given that if AMPS accepts for repair Purchased Items or other goods capable of retaining user-generated data (e.g. computer hard drives), the repair of the goods may result in the loss of the data.
