) the following additions and specifications apply:
XIMEA warrants to the Original Purchaser that the Camera provided is guaranteed to be free from material and manufacturing
defects for a period of two years. Should a unit fail during this period, XIMEA will, at its option, repair or replace the damaged
unit. Repaired or replaced Products are covered for the remainder of the original Product warranty period.

the camera, such as scratched glass or sensor damage. If the camera is disassembled, reworked or repaired by anyone other
than a recommended service person, XIMEA or its suppliers will take no responsibility for the subsequent performance or quality
of the camera.

warranty of merchantability and fitness for a particular application or purpose. In no event shall XIMEA be liable to the Original
Purchaser or any third party for direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special or accidental damages, including without
