the event of a breach of this warranty is expressly limited to the 
replacement of defective parts that cannot, in the sole discretion

No representation or other affirmation of fact set forth in this 
agreement, including but not limited to statements regarding

FOR DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE USE, 
REPAIR OR PERFORMANCE OF THE ENTRE SYSTEM . IN NO EVENT 
SHALL TACTILE MEDICAL BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, DIRECT, 
INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES . Some states, provinces 
or countries do not allow exclusion or limitation of incidental or 
consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may
