Subject to the terms of this Maintenance Plan and Purchaser's payment of all Maintenance fees Crossmatch will provide the following: 2.1. Maintenance. Crossmatch will use commercially reasonable efforts to acknowledge and address reported and reproducible material defects in the Software which prevent the Software from performing substantially in accordance with the Documentation (each a "defect or issue"). Crossmatch will receive Purchaser's reported defects or issues 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and acknowledge any such reported defect or issue within two (2) hours and use best efforts to address and remedy such defect or issue. At no additional cost to Purchaser, Crossmatch will deliver to Purchaser, as made commercially available by Crossmatch, bug fixes, maintenance updates and Major Releases for the Software ("Updates"), which will thereafter be considered "Software". As used herein, a "Major Release" is any version of the Software that in Crossmatch's sole determination provides substantial new features, additional functionality, or makes use of different architecture. At its expense and as deemed appropriate by Crossmatch in its sole discretion, Crossmatch will furnish Purchaser with revised Documentation (including release notes identifying each change) with each Update. 2.2 Resolution. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, Crossmatch will use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve each reported defect or issue with the Software by providing either: (i) a reasonable work around, which may consist of specific administrative steps or alternative programming calls; (ii) an object code patch to the Software; or (iii) a specific action plan regarding how Crossmatch intends to address the reported defect or issue and an estimate on how long it may take to remedy or work around the error or issue. Purchaser acknowledges that in order to perform Maintenance, Crossmatch may require access to and a copy of code in Purchaser's possession (or that of Purchaser's system integrator or consultants) relating to the Software or which may impact the performance of the Software. Purchaser agrees to provide access, assistance and information to Crossmatch as required to resolve defects or issues with the Software. 2.3 Other Defects and Issues. If Purchaser reports a defect or issue with the Software that is scheduled by Crossmatch to be addressed in a later Update, Crossmatch may address such defect or issue in such Update. Purchaser agrees to pay Crossmatch at Crossmatch's standard rates for all effort expended towards resolution of any defect or issue which is later determined to result from any cause other than an error or issue in the Software. 3.
