                                 CODE OF VIRGINIA

COPY; EFFECT OF ACCEPTANCE; BURDEN OF ESTABLISHING; NOTICE OF CLAIMS (§
59.1-506.10)

a. A party accepting a copy shall pay or render the consideration required by
the agreement for the copy it accepts. Acceptance of a copy precludes refusal
and, if made with knowledge of a nonconformity in a tender, may not be revoked
because of the nonconformity unless acceptance was on the reasonable assumption
that the nonconformity would be seasonably cured. Acceptance by itself does not
impair any other remedy for nonconformity.

b. A party accepting a copy has the burden of establishing a breach of contract
with respect to the copy.

c. If a copy has been accepted, the accepting party shall:

   1. except with respect to claims of a type described in &#xA7; 59.1-508.5 (d)
   (1), within a reasonable time after it discovers or should have discovered a
   breach of contract, notify the other party of the breach or be barred from any
   remedy for the breach; and

   2. if the claim is for breach of a warranty regarding noninfringement and the
   accepting party is sued by a third party because of the breach, notify the
   warrantor within a reasonable time after receiving notice of the litigation or
   be precluded from any remedy for the liability established by the litigation.
