A supplier who undertakes supplying assemblies to this specification shall be responsible for maintaining the quality of the assemblies equal to or better than the quality of the originally supplied samples. At the option of NCR, samples may be pulled from any lot and tested to determine compliance with this specification. In the event compliance is not satisfactory, units and/or lots may be returned to the supplier for replacement. The supplier shall pay shipping charges both ways on rejected materials. Product Quality 7.1 When a purchase order (PO) is accepted to supply material against this specification, the supplier assumes a responsibility for the shipment of defect-free products produced under a prevention oriented quality system. NCR expects to receive products at the AQL specified in paragraph 9.5. To help prevent defective product from reaching the customer, NCR is to be made immediately aware of any knowledge the supplier has on past and current problems with the product. In the event that problems with the product do occur, NCR uses a Closed Loop Corrective Action (CLCA) process to isolate and correct the problems. In general, this process involves a communication to the supplier to indicate and detail the problem, who will in turn, provide both a short and long term solution to correct the problem in a timely fashion. Rejections may occur and shipments may be held pending the receipt and approval of a complete failure analysis and a corrective action report from the vendor to the NCR Corporation Quality Documentation 7.2 A detailed description of the manufacturers quality program shall be made available to NCR Supplier Chain Management (SCM). The program content will be confirmed during a facility and process audit at the manufacturing site if required by SCM. 7.3 Warranty Period Refer to the business agreement document between NCR and Manufacturing Supplier. SPECIFICATION 497-0426473 REV B 17 OF 22 Product Acceptance 8. It is the intent of NCR to source materials from suppliers who provide defect-free shipments which require no routine incoming inspection. Shipments are to be received and accepted through Dock-To-Stock or Dock-to-Line programs. Dock-to-Stock 8.1 Dock-to-Stock implementation does not negate the right to reinstate incoming inspection or reject and return non-conforming material. Reinstatement will have a negative effect on the NCR Business Plan;
immediate supplier corrective action is mandatory. All lots of items supplied to this specification shall be homogeneous in materials and construction. No lot-
to-lot changes in design or materials involved in the manufacture of product delivered to NCR will be allowed without written prior approval from NCR. Process Change 8.2 NCR is to be made aware of all potential materials, design, assembly, and manufacturing site changes that may cause the product delivered to NCR to not meet specifications. All design and materials changes must be approved in writing prior to the receipt of production quantities. NCR is to be made aware of any potential manufacturing site changes; written approval of the change by NCR is not required. NCR reserves the right to audit and qualify the new location in the event of a manufacturing site change. Quality Performance Records 8.3 Quality performance records consisting of inspection and test results shall be maintained by the supplier in a place and manner which prevents loss or deterioration. They are to be made available to NCR for audit and analysis. In addition, NCR will provide track supplier quality performance based on the products they are currently providing to the NCR Corporation. The goal of the report is to the supplier work towards continual quality improvements by meeting goals set between NCR and the supplier. Statistical Process Control (SPC) 8.4 The supplier shall be committed to process control and a philosophy of continuous quality improvement. SPC is a means to achieve each. It is expected that process capability will be demonstrated through SPC and that it will be used as required to control quality characteristics. SPECIFICATION 497-0426473 REV B 18 OF 22 8.5 Product AQL (Acceptable Quality Level) Due to anticipated low volume, AQL is not applicable at this time. AQL will be reevaluated if volume levels increase significantly. 8.5.1. MTBF The RBA shall meet an MTBF goal of 500,000 hours whereby the workload is 1000 actuations per day per Bellcore TR-332. 8.5.2. Definition of Failure An RBA is considered to be a failed RBA if the RBA experiences one or more problems listed below. A failed RBA will be excluded from MTBF measurement if the failure is caused by misuse or abuse during normal operation. ESLs do not respond to RBA commands when RBA is located within specified range of ESL (Battery OK) Push Switch does not work Enclosure is cracked and/or broken Excessive power consumption 8.6 Quality Goal The supplier is requested to make continuous quality improvements to the RBA until the quality targets below are achieved.

Request From Supplier 9.2 A request for approval will be submitted to NCR accompanied by evaluation samples where applicable. NCR will respond within 60 days; however, no changes are to be made on products delivered to NCR without NCR approval. Approval 9.3 The NCR representative will analyze the change requested and give written approval or disapproval. NCR Changes 9.4 Changes originating from NCR will be communicated to the supplier through NCRs representative. If NCR suggests changes to the supplier with respect to modifications of any product, unit, or part thereof, the supplier shall study each suggested change and, within a reasonable time, not to exceed 60 days, report to NCR as to the feasibility, price, modifications to the change, and the estimated time or serial number of the product on which such change can be implemented. Such change shall not be made by the supplier until official approval has been granted by NCR. SPECIFICATION 497-0426473 REV B 20 OF 22 10. Design Qualification Test Requirements The manufacturing supplier is responsible for the electrical and mechanical design and shall pursue ultimate design-for-manufacturing. The manufacturing supplier should take responsibility for conducting its Design Qualification Test and should report its results to NCR for approval prior to RBA mass production.

A supplier who undertakes supplying assemblies to this specification shall be responsible for maintaining the quality of the assemblies equal to or better than the quality of the originally supplied samples. At the option of NCR, samples may be pulled from any lot and tested to determine compliance with this specification. In the event compliance is not satisfactory, units and/or lots may be returned to the supplier for replacement. The supplier shall pay shipping charges both ways on rejected materials. Product Quality 7.1 When a purchase order (PO) is accepted to supply material against this specification, the supplier assumes a responsibility for the shipment of defect-free products produced under a prevention oriented quality system. NCR expects to receive products at the AQL specified in paragraph 9.5. To help prevent defective product from reaching the customer, NCR is to be made immediately aware of any knowledge the supplier has on past and current problems with the product. In the event that problems with the product do occur, NCR uses a Closed Loop Corrective Action (CLCA) process to isolate and correct the problems. In general, this process involves a communication to the supplier to indicate and detail the problem, who will in turn, provide both a short and long term solution to correct the problem in a timely fashion. Rejections may occur and shipments may be held pending the receipt and approval of a complete failure analysis and a corrective action report from the vendor to the NCR Corporation Quality Documentation 7.2 A detailed description of the manufacturers quality program shall be made available to NCR Supplier Chain Management (SCM). The program content will be confirmed during a facility and process audit at the manufacturing site if required by SCM. 7.3 Warranty Period Refer to the business agreement document between NCR and Manufacturing Supplier. SPECIFICATION 497-0430074 REV A 17 OF 22 Product Acceptance 8. It is the intent of NCR to source materials from suppliers who provide defect-free shipments which require no routine incoming inspection. Shipments are to be received and accepted through Dock-To-Stock or Dock-to-Line programs. Dock-to-Stock 8.1 Dock-to-Stock implementation does not negate the right to reinstate incoming inspection or reject and return non-conforming material. Reinstatement will have a negative effect on the NCR Business Plan;
immediate supplier corrective action is mandatory. All lots of items supplied to this specification shall be homogeneous in materials and construction. No lot-
to-lot changes in design or materials involved in the manufacture of product delivered to NCR will be allowed without written prior approval from NCR. Process Change 8.2 NCR is to be made aware of all potential materials, design, assembly, and manufacturing site changes that may cause the product delivered to NCR to not meet specifications. All design and materials changes must be approved in writing prior to the receipt of production quantities. NCR is to be made aware of any potential manufacturing site changes; written approval of the change by NCR is not required. NCR reserves the right to audit and qualify the new location in the event of a manufacturing site change. Quality Performance Records 8.3 Quality performance records consisting of inspection and test results shall be maintained by the supplier in a place and manner which prevents loss or deterioration. They are to be made available to NCR for audit and analysis. In addition, NCR will provide track supplier quality performance based on the products they are currently providing to the NCR Corporation. The goal of the report is to the supplier work towards continual quality improvements by meeting goals set between NCR and the supplier. Statistical Process Control (SPC) 8.4 The supplier shall be committed to process control and a philosophy of continuous quality improvement. SPC is a means to achieve each. It is expected that process capability will be demonstrated through SPC and that it will be used as required to control quality characteristics. SPECIFICATION 497-0430074 REV A 18 OF 22 8.5 Product AQL (Acceptable Quality Level) Due to anticipated low volume, AQL is not applicable at this time. AQL will be reevaluated if volume levels increase significantly. 8.5.1.
