10.  Limited Warranty Statement

WHAT THE WARRANTY COVERS AND FOR HOW LONG

Teleflex Medical ("Teleflex") warrants the Cat. No. 425-00 CONCHATHERM NEPTUNE ("Product")
against defects in material and workmanship under normal use and service for a period of one (1)
year from the date of purchase.

Teleflex Medical, at its option, will at no charge either repair the Product (with new or reconditioned
parts) or replace it (with new or reconditioned Product), during the warranty period provided that it is
returned in accordance with the terms of this warranty.  Replaced parts or replaced Product is war-
ranted for the balance of the original warranty period. All replaced parts or Product shall become the
property of Teleflex. This expressed limited warranty is extended by Teleflex to the original end user
purchaser only and is not assignable or transferable to any other party. This is the complete warranty
for the Product manufactured by Teleflex. Teleflex assumes no obligations or liability for additions or
modifications to this warranty unless made in writing and signed by an officer of Teleflex. Teleflex
does not warrant the installation, maintenance or service of the Product.  Teleflex cannot be respon-
sible in any way for any ancillary equipment not furnished by Teleflex, which is attached to or used in
connection with the Product. Because each system, which may use the Product, is unique, Teleflex
disclaims liability for range, coverage, or operation of the system as a whole under this warranty. 

GENERAL PROVISIONS

THIS WARRANTY IS THE EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AND SETS FORTH THE FULL EXTENT OF

EXPRESS WARRANTIES.  IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, IMPLIED
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE ARE LIM-
ITED TO THE DURATION OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY.

IN NO EVENT SHALL TELEFLEX MEDICAL BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES IN EXCESS OF THE
PURCHASE PRICE OF THE PRODUCT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSE-
QUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION LOST
PROFITS, LOSS OF USE OR LOSS OF TIME.

STATE LAW RIGHTS

SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSE-
QUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR LIMITATION ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, SO
THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

This warranty gives you specific legal rights; you may also have other rights, which vary, from state
to state.
