Warranty
Thermo Fisher Scientific warrants that the Products will operate substantially in conformity with
Thermo Fisher Scientific s published specifications, when subjected to normal, proper and intended
usage by properly trained personnel, for a period of 12 MONTHS after shipment to the Customer
(the “Warranty Period”). Thermo Fisher Scientific agrees during the Warranty Period, provided it is
promptly notified in writing upon the discovery of any material defect and further provided that all
costs of returning the defective Goods to the Thermo Fisher Scientific are pre-paid by the Customer, to
repair or replace, at Thermo Fisher Scientific s option, defective Goods so as to cause the same to oper-
ate in substantial conformance with the said specifications. Replacement parts may be new or refur-
bished, at the election of Thermo Fisher Scientific. All replaced parts shall become the property of
Thermo Fisher Scientific. All consumable or expendable items are expressly excluded from the war-
ranty under this Clause. Thermo Fisher Scientific s sole liability with respect to equipment, materials,
parts or software furnished to Thermo Fisher Scientific by its third party suppliers shall be limited to
the assignment by Thermo Fisher Scientific to the Customer of any such third party supplier s war-
ranty, to the extent the same is assignable. In no event shall Thermo Fisher Scientific have any obliga-
tion to make repairs, replacements or corrections required, in whole or in part, as the result of (i)
normal wear and tear, (ii) accident, disaster or event of force majeure, (iii) misuse, fault or negligence of
or by or on behalf of the Customer, (iv) use of the Goods in a manner for which they were not
designed, (v) causes external to the Goods such as, but not limited to, power failure or electrical power
surges or (vi) use of the Goods in combination with equipment or software not supplied by Thermo
Fisher Scientific. If Thermo Fisher Scientific determines that Goods for which the Customer has
requested warranty services are not covered by the warranty hereunder, the Customer shall pay or reim-
burse Thermo Fisher Scientific for all costs of investigating and responding to such request at Thermo
Fisher Scientific s then prevailing time and material rates. If Thermo Fisher Scientific provides repair
services or replacement parts that are not covered by the warranty provided in this Clause, the Cus-
tomer shall pay Thermo Fisher Scientific therefor at Thermo Fisher Scientific s then prevailing time
and materials rates. Any installation, maintenance, repair, service, relocation or alteration to or of, or
other tampering with, the Goods, performed by any person or entity other than Thermo Fisher Scien-
tific without Thermo Fisher Scientific s prior written approval, or any use of replacement parts not
supplied by Thermo Fisher Scientific, shall immediately void and cancel all warranties with respect to
the affected Goods.
