WARRANTY
EBARA Technologies, Incorporated
Products manufactured by Supplier are warranted against defects in materials and
workmanship for 12 months from date of initial operation or 15 months from date of
shipment by Supplier, whichever occur first. Supplier's liability under valid warranty
claims is limited, at the option of Supplier, to repair, replacement, or refund of an
equitable portion of the purchase price of the Product. Items expendable in normal use
are not covered by this warranty. All warranty replacement or repair of parts shall be
limited to equipment malfunctions which, in the sole opinion of Supplier, are due or
traceable to defects in original materials or workmanship. All obligations of Supplier
under this warranty shall cease in the event of abuse or accident. Parts are warranted
only for the remaining unexpected portion of the original warranty period applicable to
the parts repaired or replaced. After expiration of the applicable warranty period,
Customer shall be charged at the then current prices for parts, labor and transportation.
Supplier assumes no responsibilities for damages caused by improper installation or by
operation in violation of the equipment's rated operation condition, internal or otherwise,
or by improper handling or maintenance.
The Supplier is not liable for any special, indirect, incidental, or consequential damage.
Warranties given by vendors of equipment or proprietary components not manufactured
by Supplier but incorporated by Supplier into its Products shall be passed on to
Customer; provided that in no event shall Supplier have any liability for failure of such
vendor to perform on its warranty.
Except as stated herein, Supplier makes no warranty of merchantability or fitness
for purpose, express or implied (either in fact or be operation of law), statutory or
otherwise; and, except as stated herein, Supplier shall have no liability under any
warranty, express or implied (either in fact or by operation of law), statutory or
otherwise. Statements made by any person, including representatives of Supplier,
which are inconsistent or in conflict with the terms of this warranty shall not be binding
upon Supplier unless specified in writing and approved by an officer of Supplier.
