ery to Buyer, the Products are warranted to be free from functional defects in materials and
workmanship, provided they are operated under condition of normal use, and that repairs and
replacements are made in accordance herewith. Seller does not warrant bulbs. The foregoing
warranty shall not apply to Products that have been disassembled, altered or repaired (other

covered by the above warranty; (b) which are reported in writing to Seller not later than seven

after discovery of the defect; and (d) which are found to be defective by Seller upon Seller’s ex-
amination. Buyer shall pay all transportation charges. SELLER SHALL NOT BE OTHERWISE
LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO INCIDENTAL DAMAGES,
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR SPECIAL DAMAGES OR FOR ANY OTHER LOSS, DAM-

IS ASSERTED BY BUYER OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY. THE LIABILITIES OF
SELLER, AS ABOVE SET FORTH, SHALL NOT BE EXTENDED BECAUSE OF ADVICE
GIVEN BY IT IN CONNECTION WITH THE DESIGN, INSTALLATION OR USE OF THE PROD-
UCTS OR PARTS THEREFOR.
