Intelligent Dispensing Solutions' Warranty and Disclaimer

WARRANTY

The Wittern Group (the “Seller”) warrants that all new Intelligent Dispensing Solutions products (the “Products”), or repaired or replaced Products furnished to you (the “Buyer”) pursuant to this section, will be free under normal use and service from any defects in workmanship or materials, provided that any allegedly defective Product has not been altered, misused, neglected, or damaged through causes unconnected with its manufacture.  This warranty shall extend solely to Buyer and shall terminate as to each Product upon the expiration of twelve (12) months from the original date of purchase.  If within such period any Product shall be proven to Seller’s satisfaction to be defective, the defective Product shall be repaired or replaced at Seller’s option.  Such repair or replacement of any defective Product shall constitute a fulfillment of all liabilities, and shall be Buyer’s exclusive remedy, with respect to such Product.  Under no circumstances will credit be allowed for unauthorized work on any Product.

To exercise its exclusive remedy provided under this section, Buyer must promptly notify Seller in writing of any claimed Product defect within seven (7) days of the appearance thereof.  If Seller repairs or replaces any Product for which a claim has been made, Seller will ship such replacement or repaired Product to Buyer within fourteen (14) days after receiving the allegedly defective Product.  Any Product replaced hereunder shall become the sole and exclusive property of Seller.  Unless otherwise specified, Seller shall bear the cost and risk of transport of replacement or repaired Products provided by Seller.  Seller, in its sole discretion, may hire, contract, or sub-contract with third parties to provide some or all warranty repair work and related services.

The warranty provided under this section is void if failure of the Product is (i) the result of occurrences during shipment of the Product from or to Seller, (ii) caused by the use or operation of the Product in an application or environment other than that intended or recommended by Seller, (iii) caused by modifications not made or authorized by Seller, or (iv) the result of the Product being subjected to unusual physical or electrical stress.
