6.2 The customer and HUBER Technology, Inc. shall agree on maintenance dates approximately four weeks before the requested or scheduled Maintenance Visit date. While HUBER Technology, Inc. will strive to accommodate the customer's preferred date, the customer cannot insist that servicing be performed exclusively on their demanded date.
