PROVISIONS      Subject to the provisions of the clauses herein, Veg-Tech agrees to correct any defect or defects in workmanship or materials which may develop under proper and normal use during the period of one (1) year from the date of shipment, by repair or by replacement of the defective part or equipment, at Veg-Tech’s option, FOB factory.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY             It is expressly understood that Veg-Tech’s liability is limited to the furnishing of such replacement parts, and that VEG-TECH SHALL NOT, IN ANY MANNER WHATSOEVER, BE LIABLE FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, LOSS OF PROPERTY, REVENUES OR PROFIT, COST OF REMOVAL, INSTALLATION OR RE-INSTALLATION, OR EXPENSES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE MATERIALS FOR ANY PURPOSE.

EXCEPT AS SET FORTH HEREIN, VEG-TECH MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS WHATSOEVER AS TO THE MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS, CAPACITY OR PERFORMANCE OF ANY MATERIALS EXCEPTING ONLY TO SUCH EXTENT (IF ANY) AS IS SPECIFICALLY SET FORTH ON THE QUOTATION.  In the event that materials do not comply with such a representation, Buyer shall notify Veg-Tech within 30 days of shipment from Veg-Tech’s factory and afford Veg-Tech reasonable opportunity to correct such non-compliance.    Buyer shall pay Veg-Tech’s list price of any new part then installed and shall be entitled to credit for Veg-Tech’s list of any old part for which the same is substituted and shall pay Veg-Tech’s shipping charges on such old and new parts.  In the event that Veg-Tech is unable to correct such non-compliance, Buyer may at its own expense return the entire materials, FOB Veg-Tech’s factory, and Veg-Tech shall then credit Buyer with the full purchase price, excluding shipping charges.

Veg-Tech makes no warranty or representation with respect to the compliance of any product with Federal, State or local safety or product standard codes and any failure to comply with such codes shall not be considered a defect of material or workmanship under this warranty.
