Warranty
|
The Company warrants to the Purchaser that the equipment to be delivered hereunder will be free from defects in material or workmanship and will be of the kind and quality designated or specified in the contract. This warranty shall apply only to defects appearing within one year from the date of shipment by the Company. If the equipment delivered hereunder does not meet the above warranty, and if the Purchaser promptly notifies the Company, the Company shall thereupon correct any defect including nonconformance with the specifications either (at its option) by repairing any defective or damaged parts of the equipment, or by making available at the Company's plant necessary repaired or replacement parts. The liability of the Company under this warranty (except as to title), or for any loss or damage to the equipment whether the claim is based on contract or negligence, shall not in any case exceed the cost of correcting defects in the equipment as herein provided and upon the expiration of the warranty period all such liability shall terminate. The foregoing shall constitute the exclusive remedy of the Purchaser and the exclusive liability of the Company. The foregoing warranty is exclusive and in lieu of all other warranties, whether written, oral, implied, or statutory (except as to title). NO WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR PURPOSE SHALL APPLY. The Company does not warrant any equipment of other manufacture designated by Purchaser.

Standard Conditions of Sale - Delivery

In the event of any such delays, the date of delivery or of performance shall be extended for a period equal to the time lost by reason of the delay. Delivery of equipment to a carrier at Midwest Electric Products, Inc. plant or any other shipping point shall constitute delivery to the Purchaser, and title and all risk of loss or damage in transit shall pass to the Purchaser at that time regardless of freight payment. All claims for loss and damage must be made by the Purchaser to the carrier. All claims for loss and damage must be made by the Purchaser to the carrier. All claims for shortages or other errors must be made in writing to Midwest Electric Products, Inc. within 30 days after receipt of shipment. Failure to give such notice shall constitute unqualified acceptance and a waiver of all such claims by purchaser.
