ARRANTY
GENERAL
HYPERTHERM, Inc. warrants that Products shall be free from defects in materials and workmanship,
under proper and normal use for which such Equipment is recommended, for a period of two (2) years,
except only with respect to the Torch, for which the warranty period shall be one (1) year, from the date
of its delivery to you.
HYPERTHERM, at its sole option, shall repair, replace, or adjust, free of charge, any Products covered
by this warranty which shall be returned with HYPERTHERM's prior authorization (which shall not be
unreasonably withheld), properly packed, to HYPERTHERM's place of business in Hanover, New
Hampshire, all costs, insurance and freight prepaid, and which examination proves not to be free from
defects in materials and workmanship. HYPERTHERM shall not be liable for any repairs, replace-
ments, or adjustments of Products covered by this warranty, except those made pursuant to this para-
graph or with HYPERTHERM's written consent. This warranty shall not apply to any Product which has
been mishandled, incorrectly installed, modified or assembled by you or any other person. HYPER-
THERM shall be liable for breach of this warranty only if it receives written notice of such breach within
the applicable warranty period specified herein above. THE FOREGOING SHALL CONSTITUTE THE
SOLE REMEDY TO DISTRIBUTORS OR THEIR CUSTOMERS FOR ANY BREACH BY HYPER-
THERM OF ITS WARRANTY.
PATENT INDEMNITY
Except only in cases of Products not manufactured by HYPERTHERM or manufactured by a person
other than HYPERTHERM not in strict conformity with HYPERTHERM's specifications, and in cases of
designs, processes, formulae or combinations not developed or purported to be developed by HYPER-
THERM, HYPERTHERM agrees to indemnify, protect and hold harmless Distributors and their custom-
ers against any and all liability or claims in any manner imposed upon or accruing against Distributors
and their customers because of the use in or about the construction or operation of Equipment or any
design, system, formula, combination, article or material which infringes or alleges to infringe on any
patent or other right. Distributors shall notify HYPERTHERM promptly upon learning of any action or
threatened action in connection with any such alleged infringement, and each party may appoint its own
counsel for any such action or threatened action.
DISCLAIMER OF OTHER WARRANTIES
HYPERTHERM MAKES NO WARRANTIES REGARDING PRODUCTS MANUFACTURED BY IT OR
OTHERS (INCLUDING WITHOUT IMPLIED LIMITATION WARRANTIES AS TO MERCHANTABILITY
OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE), EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, EXCEPT AS
PROVIDED HEREIN. This warranty is in lieu of any and all warranties, express or implied, by law or
otherwise; and Distributors are not authorized to give any other warranty purporting to be binding upon
HYPERTHERM upon resale of Products to their customers. IN NO EVENT shall HYPERTHERM be
liable for incidental or consequential damages or injury to the person or property of anyone by reason of
any defect in any Equipment sold hereunder.
WARNING
Genuine Hypertherm parts are the factory-recommended replacement parts for your
Hypertherm system. Any damage caused by the use of other than genuine
Hypertherm parts may not be covered by the Hypertherm warranty.
