resulting HOTAS will retain only the balance of the

extended warranty period that commenced from

the purchase date of extended warranty.

provided with the attached table.

Market Research

Market research has been completed; however, this maintenance is being acquired by Sole Source as Wraith Systems is the only manufacturer able to fulfill this requirement.
