In the event replacement parts or a replacement Product are not available at the time of the initiation of a Warranty claim by Customer, vhf may, in its sole discretion deliver to Customer an accommodation in the form of a reasonably similar loaner machine (an “Accommodation”). Any such Accommodation shall be in full satisfaction of any applicable Warranty claim and of vhf’s obligation to Customer under the Warranty for such Warranty claim until Customer’s Product can be repaired by vhf.
