1.3 […***…]; and/or
1.4 […***…].
2. Disk Drive Firmware Qualification and Change Management.
2.1 Supplier is responsible for identifying and qualifying versions of […***…] disk drive firmware for use in the Product shipped by HP. HP is responsible for identifying versions of […***…] disk drive firmware for use in the Product shipped by HP.
2.2 HP requires that Supplier’s firmware (which is made interoperable with the disk drive firmware) be kept under change control. Supplier will identify to HP the disk drive firmware revision they have presently qualified and have incorporated into the Product and any prototypes of the Product being purchased by HP for development and testing.
2.3 If HP requests that certain disk drive firmware be qualified for use with Supplier’s products, Supplier will use commercially reasonable efforts to qualify such disk drive firmware. Supplier may determine that qualification is not reasonably possible due to incompatibilities with Supplier’s firmware.
2.4 Supplier shall qualify disk drive firmware as agreed to in any authorized Statement of Work. If HP requests Supplier to qualify additional disk drive firmware that is not part of an authorized Statement of Work that will be used by other customers of Supplier then there is no charge to HP.

5. Business guidelines for managing Engineering Change requests involving NRE and/or hardware required for qualification efforts or internal HP use.
5.1 Grounding Principles
5.1.1. The HP business relationship with Supplier is based on the foundation that Supplier strives to provide a competitive OEM array offering and to maintain an OEM product roadmap with relevant functionality at parity or ahead of key HP competitors (i.e. LSI, Dell, IBM & Sun)
5.1.2. Each HP program will have a mutually agreed to SOW in place, which clearly defines the product requirements and associated development efforts.
5.1.3 All Engineering Change requests initiated by HP are subject to the mutual agreement of Supplier. No work will begin without written authorization from HP.
5.1.4. After the Effective Date of this Amended Exhibit, […***…]. Warranty terms and conditions for pre-production units will be as set forth on the quote for such units.
5.1.5. Unless the parties otherwise agree in writing, NRE charges will ONLY apply to items outside the scope of the approved SOW per the following criteria and will be tracked through the mutually approved change management process:
5.1.4.1. The item is requested by the designated HP program manager for a particular program;
5.1.4.2. The item is unique to HP such as HP exclusive product functions and features. […***…].
5.1.4.3. The HP requested hardware or software changes for the products is not made to remedy a defect, quality related problem, non-conformance related or design short-coming of the features as compared to and specified in the current SOW or product specification. An example is an HP requested hardware change in order to improve aesthetics or usability that increases HP product differentiation or improves HP product marketability, which may incur an NRE or product cost impact.
5.1.4.5. The item was not implemented or initiated prior to HP’s written approval.
5.1.4.6. New tooling design and creation where the tool is used exclusively for HP product and the tool is HP owned.
