LIMITED WARRANTY AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

This warranty applies to all products sold by HD Electric Company (the "Products"); provided, however, that the term Products does not include any
third party products purchased through HD Electric Company, for which no warranties are made (the "Third Party Products"). Third Party Products
may be subject to a separate manufacturer's warranty; [should you have any question regarding whether a separate warranty applies, please contact
HD Electric Company].

NOTICE: READ THIS LIMITATION OF WARRANTY AND LIABILITY BEFORE BUYING OR USING THE PRODUCTS CONTAINED HEREIN.

It is impossible to eliminate all risks associated with the use of the Products. Risks of serious injury or death, including risks associated with electrocution,
arcing and thermal burns, are inherent in work in and around energized electrical systems. Such risks arise from the wide variety of electrical systems
and equipment to which Products may be applied, the manner of use or application, weather and environmental conditions or other unknown factors,
all of which are beyond the control of HD Electric Company.

HD Electric Company does not agree to be an insurer of these risks, and shall have no liability for any claims arising from such risks. 

WHEN YOU BUY OR USE THESE PRODUCTS, YOU AGREE TO ACCEPT THESE RISKS. 

HD Electric Company warrants to the original purchaser that the Products (excluding any third party products purchased through HD Electric Company,
for which no warranties are made) will be free from defects in material and workmanship, under normal use and regular service, and preventative
maintenance for a period of one (1) year (ten (10) years for HDE Capacitor Controls) from the date of shipment (the “Warranty Period”). Should any failure
to conform with this warranty be found during the Warranty Period, you must notify HD Electric Company of your claim within thirty (30) days of discovery,
and within the Warranty Period. Your failure to give notice of claims of breach of warranty within the Warranty Period shall be deemed an absolute and
unconditional waiver of claims for such defects. HD Electric Company will have no responsibility to honor claims received after the date the applicable
Warranty Period expires. 

Upon notice of your claim, HD Electric Company will provide a return authorization number, and further instructions on how to return the product for
service. You must follow HD Electric Company’s instruction. You are responsible for all Product removal, handling, re-installation, and shipping (both
to and from HD Electric Company). Products returned for repair, as well as repaired or replacement Products shall be sent postage / freight prepaid. After
receipt of a product which HD Electric Company determines is defective, HD Electric will, at its option, either (1) repair (or authorize the repair of) the
Product or (2) replace the Product, subject to the following: The Products are made using parts sourced from a variety of manufacturers. Due to the rapidly
changing technology environment, parts may become obsolete / unavailable over time (end of life). In the event that a Product cannot be repaired or
replaced due to unavailability of parts, HD Electric Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain substitute parts or conduct work around
design, but cannot guarantee its ability to do so. 

Items not found defective will be returned at your expense, or failing receipt of instruction from you on return of such items within five (5) business days
of our notice to you that the product is not defective, HD Electric may dispose of the product at its discretion and with no liability to you. HD Electric
Company’s determination of defects is final. Products repaired or replaced during the Warranty Period shall be covered by the foregoing warranties for
the remainder of the original Warranty Period or ninety (90) days from the date of delivery of the repaired or replaced Products, whichever is longer.
