    (b) Exchange Service:
    1. This coverage applies to You if either "Exchange Service" or "Next Business Day Exchange Service" is stated on the front of this Contract. If service is needed, Your defective product will be exchanged for a functioning unit (new or refurbished) without charge for parts or labor. At Our option the exchange unit may be another model (new or refurbished) of kind and quality similar to Your defective unit. In order to process an exchange, You must secure return of the defective product by providing Us with a valid credit card number with sufficient credit to cover the price of the replacement product. You will be billed at the Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price for the unit if the defective product is not returned within 10 business days of shipment of the replacement product to You, or if the unit is returned damaged because you have not properly packed or shipped it. We will pay the shipping costs to and from the service center. The product is not to be taken back to the retailer.
