EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS LIMITED WARRANTY, ICUITI MAKES NO OTHER
WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. ICUITI EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS
ALL WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS NOT STATED IN THIS LIMITED WARRANTY. ANY IMPLIED
WARRANTIES THAT MAY BE IMPOSED BY LAW ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE LIMITED
WARRANTY PERIOD. SOME STATES OR COUNTRIES DO NOT ALLOW A LIMITATION ON HOW LONG
AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS OR THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES FOR CONSUMER PRODUCTS. IN SUCH STATES OR COUNTRIES, SOME
EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
This Limited Warranty applies to the ICUITI branded hardware products sold by or leased from ICUITI
Corporation, its worldwide subsidiaries, affiliates, authorized resellers, or country distributors (collectively
referred to in this Limited Warranty as "ICUITI") with this Limited Warranty. This Limited Warranty is
applicable in all countries and may be enforced in any country where ICUITI or its authorized service
providers offer warranty service subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Limited Warranty.
However, warranty service availability and response times may vary from country to country and may also be
subject to registration requirements in the country of purchase.
ICUITI warrants that the ICUITI hardware product and all the internal components of the product that you
have purchased or leased from ICUITI are free from defects in materials or workmanship under normal use
during the Limited Warranty Period. The Limited Warranty Period starts on the date of purchase or lease from
ICUITI. Your dated sales or delivery receipt, showing the date of purchase or lease of the product, is your
proof of the purchase or lease date. You may be required to provide proof of purchase or lease as a condition
of receiving warranty service. You are entitled to warranty service according to the terms and conditions of
this document if a repair to your ICUITI branded hardware is required within the Limited Warranty Period. This
Limited Warranty extends only to the original purchaser or lessee of this ICUITI branded product and is not
transferable to anyone who obtains ownership of the ICUITI branded product from the original purchaser or
lessee.
ICUITI products are manufactured using new materials or new and used materials equivalent to new in
performance and reliability. Spare parts may be new or equivalent to new. Spare parts are warranted to be
free from defects in material or workmanship for thirty (30) days or for the remainder of the Limited Warranty
Period of the ICUITI hardware product in which they are installed, whichever is longer.
During the Limited Warranty Period, ICUITI will repair or replace the defective component parts or the
hardware product. All component parts or hardware products removed under this Limited Warranty become
the property of ICUITI. The replacement part or product takes on either the Limited Warranty status of the
removed part or product or the thirty (30) day limited warranty of the spare part. In the unlikely event that your
ICUITI product has a recurring failure, ICUITI, at its discretion, may elect to provide you with a replacement
unit of ICUITI's choosing that is at least equivalent to your ICUITI branded product in hardware performance.
ICUITI reserves the right to elect, at its sole discretion, to give you a refund of your purchase price or lease
payments (less interest) instead of a replacement. This is your exclusive remedy for defective products.
YOU SHOULD MAKE PERIODIC BACKUP COPIES OF THE DATA STORED ON YOUR HARD DRIVE,
FLASH MEMORY, OR OTHER STORAGE DEVICES, WHERE APPLICABLE, AS A PRECAUTION
AGAINST POSSIBLE FAILURES, ALTERATION, OR LOSS OF THE DATA. BEFORE RETURNING ANY
UNIT FOR SERVICE, BE SURE TO BACK UP DATA AND REMOVE ANY CONFIDENTIAL, PROPRIETARY,
OR PERSONAL INFORMATION. ICUITI IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR DAMAGE TO OR LOSS OF ANY
PROGRAMS, DATA, OR REMOVABLE STORAGE MEDIA. ICUITI IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE
RESTORATION OR REINSTALLATION OF ANY PROGRAMS OR DATA OTHER THAN SOFTWARE
INSTALLED BY ICUITI WHEN THE PRODUCT IS MANUFACTURED.
ICUITI does not warrant that the operation of this product will be uninterrupted or error-free. ICUITI is not
responsible for damage that occurs as a result of your failure to follow the instructions that came with the
ICUITI branded product.
This Limited Warranty does not apply to expendable parts. This Limited Warranty does not extend to any
product from which the serial number has been removed or that has been damaged or rendered defective (a)
as a result of accident, misuse, abuse, or other external causes; (b) by operation outside the usage
parameters stated in the user documentation that shipped with the product; (c) by the use of parts not
manufactured or sold by ICUITI; or (d) by modification or service by anyone other than (i) ICUITI, (ii) a ICUITI
authorized service provider, or (iii) your own installation of end-user replaceable ICUITI or ICUITI approved
parts if available for your product in the servicing country.
These terms and conditions constitute the complete and exclusive warranty agreement between you and
ICUITI regarding the ICUITI branded product you have purchased or leased. These terms and conditions
supersede any prior agreements or representations-including representations made in ICUITI sales literature
or advice given to you by ICUITI or an agent or employee of ICUITI-that may have been made in connection
with your purchase or lease of the ICUITI branded product. No change to the conditions of this Limited
Warranty is valid unless it is made in writing and signed by an authorized representative of ICUITI.
Limitation of Liability
IF YOUR ICUITI BRANDED HARDWARE PRODUCT FAILS TO WORK AS WARRANTED ABOVE, YOUR
SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY SHALL BE REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT. ICUITI'S MAXIMUM LIABILITY
UNDER THIS LIMITED WARRANTY IS EXPRESSLY LIMITED TO THE LESSER OF THE PRICE YOU
HAVE PAID FOR THE PRODUCT OR THE COST OF REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF ANY HARDWARE
COMPONENTS THAT MALFUNCTION IN CONDITIONS OF NORMAL USE.
ICUITI IS NOT LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES CAUSED BY THE PRODUCT OR THE FAILURE OF THE
PRODUCT TO PERFORM, INCLUDING ANY LOST PROFITS OR SAVINGS OR SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL,

PRODUCT LIABILITY), A CONTRACT CLAIM, OR ANY OTHER CLAIM. THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
CANNOT BE WAIVED OR AMENDED BY ANY PERSON. THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY WILL BE
