I'm trying to figure out an example as to how non-repeatable reads can occur in an READ COMMITTED transaction isolation level? (MS SQL SEVER 2008)

If a transaction in this isolation level attempt to read from a row that's being modified by another transaction, it waits because of the shared lock, until the original transaction returns. So how is it possible for a non-repeatable read to occur in this isolation level?

Can anyone provide me with a use case?
