LIMITED WARRANTY Company warrants that the materials or equipment will operate or perform substantially in conformance with manufacturers published specifications and be free from defects in material and workmanship, when subjected to normal, proper and intended usage by properly trained personnel, for the period of time set forth in the product documentation, published specifications or package inserts. If a period of time is not specified in manufacturers product documentation, published specifications or package inserts, the warranty period shall be one (1) year from the date of shipment to Purchaser for equipment and ninety (90) days for all other materials (the Warranty Period). Company agrees during the Warranty Period, to repair or replace, at Companys option, defective equipment or materials so as to cause the same to operate in substantial conformance with said published specifications, provided that Purchaser shall (a) promptly notify Company in writing upon the discovery of any defect, which notice shall include the product model and serial number which may include biohazard contamination procedures and other product-specific handling instructions, then, if applicable, Purchaser may return the defective equipment or materials to Company with all costs prepaid by Purchaser. Replacement parts may be new or refurbished, at the election of Company. All replaced parts shall become the property of Company. Shipment to Purchaser of repaired or replacement equipment or materials shall be made in accordance with the Delivery provisions of Companys standard terms and conditions. Consumables are expressly excluded from this warranty. Materials or equipment supplied by Company to Purchaser are not warranted by Company, but Company agrees to assign to Purchaser any warranty rights in such materials or equipment that Company may have from the original manufacturer or third party supplier. In no event shall Company have any obligation 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 the Purchaser, (iv) use of the equipment or materials in a manner for which they were not designed, (v) causes external to the equipment or materials such as, but not limited to, power failure or electrical power surges, (vi) improper storage and handling of the equipment or materials or (vii) use of the equipment or materials in combination with equipment or software not supplied by Company.

Heating elements, thermocouples and retorts are excluded from this warranty because the Company has no control over the temperatures and environments to which the elements, thermocouples, insulation packs, or retorts may be exposed during operation. GENERAL The Purchaser shall not be entitled to assign the order or any part of it without the prior written consent of the Company. Each right or remedy of the Company under the order is without prejudice to any other right or remedy of the Company. If any provision of these Terms and Conditions is found by any court, tribunal or administrative body of competent jurisdiction to be wholly or partly illegal, invalid, void, voidable, unenforceable or unreasonable, it shall to the extent of such illegality, voidness, voidability, unenforceabilty or unreasonableness, be deemed severable and the remaining provisions of these Terms and Conditions shall continue in full force and effect. Failure or delay by the Company in enforcing or partially enforcing any provision of these Terms and Conditions will not be construed as a waiver of any of its rights under these Terms and Conditions. The formation, existence, construction, performance, validity and all aspects of any contract between Purchaser and Company shall be governed by the law of the state of California and the parties submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of courts of that state. Any legal presumption that these Terms and Conditions be strictly construed against the party who drafted such terms or who benefits from such terms shall not be employed in construing and interpreting these Terms and Conditions.
