Suppose that the continuous-time stochastic process {X(t),t ≥ 0}, whose state space is {0,1}, spends an exponential time with parameter 1 in a state the first time it visits this state. The second time it visits a state, it stays there an exponential time with parameter 2. When both states have been visited twice each, the process starts anew.
