          equipment before installation in any Covad data centers or in the
          Covad network. As iBEAM transitions its technical service from Layer 4
          switching, iBEAM will warrant the suitability of the new technique for
          deployment before any changes are made in field deployments in the
          Covad network or with any Covad-affiliated ISP.

     .    iBEAM will be responsible for all technical support and service
          assurance for the iBEAM equipment installed at any Covad-affiliated
          ISP or in a Covad data center. iBEAM warrants that only TCP/IP traffic
          destined for contracted content provider origin servers will be
