If and to the extent that any provision of this limited warranty
should generally be found to be unenforceable, the unenforceable
provision shall be severed from the warranty and deemed not to
form part of the warranty. The remaining provisions of this warranty
shall be and remain valid and enforceable. If and to the extent
that any provision of this limited warranty as it relates to any of the
Related Parties is found to be invalid or unenforceable in respect
of that party (the “

deemed to be severed or excluded from the provision, and the
provision shall remain valid, enforceable and applicable in respect
of the other or remaining Related Parties.

governed and construed in accordance with the laws of Ontario.
If there is any inconsistency between this limited warranty, on the
one hand, and any statement in the packaging of the Television
or in any other document enclosed with, or used in the context
of the promotion or sale of, the Television, on the other hand, the
provisions of this limited warranty shall prevail.
