Chromalox warrants only that the Products and parts manufactured by Chromalox, when shipped, and the work performed by
Chromalox when performed, will meet all applicable specification and other specific product and work requirements (including
those of performance), if any, and will be free from defects in material and workmanship under normal conditions of use. All claims
for defective or non conform, (both hereinafter called defective). Products, parts or work under this warranty must be made in
writing immediately upon discovery, and in any event within three (3) years from delivery, provided, however all claims for
defective Products and parts must be made writing no later than three (3) years after shipment by Chromalox. Defective and
nonconforming items must be held by Chromalox’s inspections and returned to the original f.o.b. point upon request. THE
FOREGOING IS EXPRESSLY IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES WHATSOEVER, EXPRESS, IMPLIED AND STATU-
TORY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANT ABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
Not withstanding the provisions of this WARRANTY AND LIMITATIONS Clause it is specifically understood that Products and
parts not manufactured and work not performed by Chromalox are warranted only to the extent and in the manner that the same
are warranted to Chromalox by Chromalox’s vendors, and then only to the extent that Chromalox is reasonably able to enforce
such a warranty, it being understood Chromalox shall have no obligation to initiate litigation unless buyer undertakes to pay all
cost and expenses therefore including but not limited to attorney’s fees and indemnifies Chromalox against any liability to
Chromalox’s vendors arising out of such litigation.
Upon buyer’s submission of a claim as provided above and in its substantiation, Chromalox shall at its option either (i) repair or
replace its Products, parts or work at the original f.o.b. point of delivery or (ii) refund an equitable portion of the purchase price.
The foregoing is Chromalox’s only obligation and buyer’s exclusive remedy for breach of warranty, and is buyer’s exclusive
remedy against Chromalox for all claims arising hereunder or relating hereto whether such claims are based on breach of
contract, tort (including negligence and strict liability) or other theories, buyer’s failure to submit a claim as provided above shall
specifically waive all claims for damages or other relief, including but not limited to claims based on latent defects. In no event
shall buyer be entitled to incidental or consequential damages and buyer should hold Chromalox harmless therefrom. Any action
by buyer arising hereunder or relating hereto, whether based on breach of contract, tort (including negligence and strict liability)
or other theories, must be commenced within three (3) years after the date of shipment or it shall be barred.
