● | Buyer will deploy the test fleet in a variety of routes and geographic regions and will evaluate under various climate/weather conditions for a time period to be determined by Buyer and at Buyer’s sole discretion. |
● | The price of the 50 NGEV test Vehicles will not exceed $[**] per Vehicle. |
Phase 2 – Full Deployment
● | Following Phase 1 testing and deployment, deployment of the balance of the Order will be on a timeframe decided by Buyer at Buyer’s sole discretion. |
● | Buyer will determine, at its sole discretion, the level of success of the 50 Vehicle test. |
● | Buyer may reduce the quantity of the balance of the Order (or cancel the balance of the Order) depending on the level of success achieved during the phase 1 testing, as determined in Buyer’s sole discretion. |
