WARRANTY

ORTEC* warrants that the items will be delivered free from defects in material or workmanship. ORTEC makes
no other warranties, express or implied, and specifically NO WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

ORTEC’s exclusive liability is  limited to repairing or replacing at ORTEC’s option, items found by ORTEC to
be defective in workmanship or materials within  one  year from the date of delivery. ORTEC’s liability on any
claim  of  any  kind,  including  negligence,  loss,  or  damages  arising  out  of,  connected  w ith,  or  from  the
performance or breach thereof, or from the manufacture, sale, delivery, resale,  repair,  or  use of any item or
services covered by this agreement or purchase order, shall in no case exceed the price allocable to the item or
servic e furnished or any part thereof that gives rise to the claim. In the event ORTEC fails to manufacture or
deliver items  c alled for in this agreement or purchase order, ORTEC’s exclusive liability and buyer’s exclusive
remedy shall be release of the buyer from the obligation to pay the purchase price. In no event shall ORTEC be
liable for special or consequential damages.

Quality Control

Before being approved for shipment, each ORTEC instrument must pass a stringent set of quality control tests
designed to expose any flaws in materials or workmanship. Permanent records of these tests are maintained for
use in warranty repair and as a source of statistical information for design improvements.

Repair Service

If it becomes necessary to return this instrument for repair, it is essential that Customer Services be contacted
in advance of its return so that a Return Authorization Number can be assigned to the unit. Also, ORTEC must
be informed,  either  in writing, by telephone [(865) 482-4411] or by facsimile transmission [(865) 483-2133],
of the nature of the fault of the instrument being returned and of the model, serial, and revision ("Rev" on rear
panel)  numbers.  Failure  to  do  so  may  cause  unnecessary  delays  in  getting  the  unit  repaired.  The  ORTEC
standard procedure requires that instruments returned for repair pass the same quality control tests that are used
for  new-production  instruments.  Instruments  that  are  returned  should  be  packed  so  that  they  will  w ithstand
normal  transit  handling  and  must  be  shipped  PREPAID  via  Air  Parcel  Post  or  United  Parcel  Service  to  the
designated  ORTEC  repair  center.  The  address  label  and  the  package  should  include  the  Return  Authorization
Number  assigned.  Instruments  being  returned  that  are  damaged  in  transit  due  to  inadequate  packing  will  be
repaired  at  the  sender's  expense,  and  it  will  be  the  sender's  responsibility  to  make  claim  with  the  shipper.
Instruments not in warranty should follow the same procedure and ORTEC will provide a quotation.

Damage in Transit

Shipments  should  be  examined  immediately  upon  receipt  for  evidence  of  external  or  concealed  damage.  The
carrier  making delivery should be notified immediately of any such damage, since the carrier is normally liable
for damage in shipment. Packing materials, waybills, and other such documentation should be preserved in order
to  establish  claims.  After  such  notification  to  the  carrier,  please  notify  ORTEC  of  the  circumstances  so  that
assistance can be provided in making damage claims and in providing replacement equipment, if necessary.
