6. Limited Warranty.

Fortinet provides this limited warranty for its product only to the single end-user person or entity that originally purchased the Product from Fortinet or

its authorized reseller or distributor and paid for such Product. The warranty is only valid for Products which are properly registered on Fortinet's Support

Website,

policies, and any support is only valid for products properly purchased through authorized distributors and resellers. The warranty periods discussed

below will start according to Fortinet's policies posted at

the Fortinet distributor's and reseller's responsibility to make clear to the end user the date the product was originally shipped from Fortinet, and it is the

end user's responsibility to understand the original ship date from the party from which the end user purchased the product. All warranty claims must be

submitted in writing to Fortinet before the expiration of the warranty term or such claims are waived in full. Fortinet provides no warranty for any beta,

donation or evaluation Products. Fortinet warrants that the hardware portion of the Products ("Hardware") will be free from material defects in workman-

ship as compared to the functional specifications for the period set forth as follows and applicable to the Product type ("Hardware Warranty Period"): (a) a

three hundred sixty-five (365) day limited warranty for the Hardware products; (b) for FortiAP and Meru AP indoor Wi-Fi access point Hardware products,

the warranty herein shall last from the start of the warranty period as discussed above until five (5) years following the product announced end-of-life date

Hardware; (c) for FortiSwitch Hardware appliance products other than the FortiSwitch-5000 series, the warranty herein shall last from the start of the warran-

ty period as discussed above until five (5) years following the product announced end-of-life date Hardware. Fortinet's sole obligation shall be to repair or

offer replacement Hardware for the defective Hardware at no charge to the original owner. This obligation is exclusive of transport fees, labor, de-instal-

lation, installation, reconfiguration, or return shipment and handling fees and costs, and Fortinet shall have no obligation related thereto. Such repair or

replacement will be rendered by Fortinet at an authorized Fortinet service facility as determined by Fortinet. The replacement Hardware need not be new or

of an identical make, model, or part; Fortinet may, in its discretion, replace the defective Hardware (or any part thereof ) with any reconditioned Product that

Fortinet reasonably determines is substantially equivalent (or superior) in all material respects to the defective Hardware. The Hardware Warranty Period for

the repaired or replacement Hardware shall be for the greater of the remaining Hardware Warranty Period or ninety days from the delivery of the repaired or

replacement Hardware. If Fortinet determines in its reasonable discretion that a material defect is incapable of correction or that it is not practical to repair

or replace defective Hardware, the price paid by the original purchaser for the defective Hardware will be refunded by Fortinet upon return to Fortinet of

the defective Hardware. All Hardware (or part thereof ) that is replaced by Fortinet, or for which the purchase price is refunded, shall become the property

of Fortinet upon replacement or refund. Fortinet warrants that Software as initially shipped by Fortinet will substantially conform to Fortinet's then-current

functional specifications for the Software, as set forth in the applicable documentation for a period of ninety (90) days ("Software Warranty Period"), if the

Software is properly installed on approved Hardware and operated as contemplated in its documentation. Fortinet's sole obligation shall be to repair or of-

fer replacement Software for the non-conforming Software with software that substantially conforms to Fortinet's functional specifications. This obligation

is exclusive of transport fees, labor, de-installation, installation, reconfiguration, or return shipment and handling fees and costs, and Fortinet shall have no

obligation related thereto. Except as otherwise agreed by Fortinet in writing, the warranty replacement Software is provided only to the original licensee,

and is subject to the terms and conditions of the license granted by Fortinet for the Software. The Software Warranty Period shall extend for an additional

ninety (90) days after any warranty replacement software is delivered. If Fortinet determines in its reasonable discretion that a material non-conformance is

incapable of correction or that it is not practical to repair or replace the non-conforming Software, the price paid by the original licensee for the non-con-

forming Software will be refunded by Fortinet; provided that the non-conforming Software (and all copies thereof ) is first returned to Fortinet. The license

granted respecting any Software for which a refund is given automatically terminates immediately upon refund. For purpose of the above hardware and

software warranties, the term "functional specifications" means solely those specifications authorized and published by Fortinet that expressly state in such

specifications that they are the functional specifications referred to in this section 6 of this Agreement, and, in the event no such specifications are provided

to you with the Software or Hardware, there shall be no warranty on such Software.
