WARRANTY PERIOD. Sufficient information must be given to attempt to resolve the claimed
problem. Should Venture RV determine that repair or replacement is appropriate, the
consumer must deliver the unit to the dealer or service center as directed. Delivery shall occur
no later than thirty (30) days after the authorization for repair or replacement. Do not deliver
your unit to Venture RV, an authorized dealer, or service center without prior authorization. All
costs incurred by the consumer for transportation for warranty service shall be the sole
responsibility of the consumer. The consumer must contact Venture RV by CERTIFIED MAIL
with a written description of the claimed warranted defect and the efforts to remedy it.
FAILURE TO SO NOTIFY Venture RV IN THIS REGARD SHALL RENDER THIS TLW VOID
AS TO THE CLAIMED DEFECT. The scheduling of warranty work at an authorized dealer or
service center is not controlled by Venture RV and delays may be experienced. Venture RV is
not responsible for loss of use of the unit, expenses for fuel, telephone, food, lodging, travel,
loss of income or revenue, or loss of or damage to personal property.

OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, CORRESPONDENCE
WITH DESCRIPTION, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT, ALL OF WHICH ARE EXPRESSLY
DISCLAIMED BY Venture RV. THIS TLW GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS AND YOU
MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS THAT VARY DEPENDING ON LOCAL LAW. SOME
STATES LIMIT OR PROHIBIT LIMITATIONS OF WARRANTIES, SO THE ABOVE MAY NOT

MISCELLANEOUS: No repair or replacement effected shall cause any extension or renewal
of the warranty period. Venture RV may make parts and/or design changes from time to time
without notice and repairs or replacements may be made with new or different parts. Venture
RV reserves the right to make changes in the design or material of its products without
incurring any obligation to incorporate such changes in any product previously manufactured.
At Venture RV's, sole option, any dispute concerning any warranted defect may be resolved
through mediation or arbitration. This TLW shall be governed by the laws of the State of
Indiana, and any legal action shall be brought only in the Circuit or Superior Court of LaGrange
County, Indiana. In case of conflicts between this TLW and any other warranties issued or
conveyed by Venture RV, the terms of this TLW shall govern.
ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION: The parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve
any disputes by negotiations. If unsuccessful, Venture RV may, in its sole discretion, elect to
submit the matter to binding arbitration and, if such election is exercised, the consumer
covenants and agrees that he, she, they, or it shall submit any such disputes to such binding
arbitration. The arbitral body shall be either the American Arbitration Association or the
National Arbitration Foundation, and the rules of the body chosen by Venture RV shall govern
except to the extent same are in conflict with the Indiana Uniform Arbitration Act, which shall
govern. The arbitrator is expressly empowered to enter an award of default against any party
in the event of: (a) the failure or refusal of such party to comply with any deadline fixed by the
arbitrator; (b) the failure or refusal of such party to make timely payment of any fees, expenses,
or other charges billed by the arbitrator; or (c) any other failure or refusal by such party to
cooperate and participate in any aspect of the arbitration proceedings. The arbitrator will admit
only relevant and reliable evidence at the hearing, but no particular rules of evidence are
specified for use. The hearing shall be electronically recorded by an Indiana Notary Public or
other officer authorized by Indiana law to administer oaths, and all witnesses who shall testify
shall be sworn on oath to tell the truth. The arbitrator may award injunctive relief, interest, and
