                                 CODE OF VIRGINIA

REVOCATION OF ACCEPTANCE OF GOODS (§ 8.2A-517)

1. A lessee may revoke acceptance of a lot or commercial unit whose
nonconformity substantially impairs its value to the lessee if the lessee has
accepted it:

   a. Except in the case of a finance lease, on the reasonable assumption that
   its nonconformity would be cured and it has not been seasonably cured; or

   b. Without discovery of the nonconformity if the lessee&#8217;s acceptance was
   reasonably induced either by the lessor&#8217;s assurances or, except in the
   case of a finance lease, by the difficulty of discovery before acceptance.

2. Except in the case of a finance lease that is not a consumer lease, a lessee
may revoke acceptance of a lot or commercial unit if the lessor defaults under
the lease contract and the default substantially impairs the value of that lot
or commercial unit to the lessee.

3. If the lease agreement so provides, the lessee may revoke acceptance of a lot
or commercial unit because of other defaults by the lessor.

4. Revocation of acceptance must occur within a reasonable time after the lessee
discovers or should have discovered the ground for it and before any substantial
change in condition of the goods which is not caused by the nonconformity.
Revocation is not effective until the lessee notifies the lessor.

5. A lessee who so revokes has the same rights and duties with regard to the
goods involved as if the lessee had rejected them.
