Test Facilities. Lucent will develop and maintain test facilities to support the test and acceptance process necessary to drive the technical evaluation and selection set forth in this Section ("Test Facilities"). (i) The Test Facilities will include a functional replica of the Network environment, including each Network Element to be implemented per the Network design. At no additional cost to WinStar, Lucent will provide WinStar with at least one of each Lucent Product purchased by WinStar for implementation into the Test Facilities. Title in all such Test Facilities Network Elements shall vest in WinStar, and WinStar shall be entitled to continue to use such Elements in its Test Facilities following termination or expiration of the Agreement. The Test Facilities must be adequate to support the following types of network testing: (1) End-to-end integration testing; (2) Network topology changes; (3) Integration testing of new/individual Network Elements within the existing Network (including Lucent Products and Third-Party Products) and with the OSS/BSS; (4) Integration testing of WinStar customer CPE and network applications within the then-current Network; (5) Performance, load, and stress testing; (6) Trouble/fault isolation; (7) Year 2000 compliance testing; and (8) Verify support of, and compliance with, Applicable Standards. (ii) The Test Facilities will be capable of supporting concurrent testing on current and future configurations/systems and will support testing by WinStar and WinStar's customers and third-party vendors (subject to such third-party vendors signing a confidentiality agreement protecting Lucent's intellectual property). The Test Facilities will also be used for certifying new WinStar hardware/software configurations as well as simulating Network trouble conditions if necessary for real-time trouble-shooting or maintenance support. (iii) Lucent will install in the test beds a reasonable number of new product evaluation units for the purpose of testing such new products and technology. (iv) Support connection for integration testing of the WinStar Operations Support Systems ("OSS") and Business Support Systems ("BSS") as individual and integrated Network Elements and technology. Act as a WinStar customer demonstration center where WinStar customers can, on a pre-negotiated basis, observe interoperability of their equipment and network applications with WinStar Network Elements, OSS and BSS.
