This limited warranty applies to the effects of weathering and does not apply to other causes of degradation,
such as in the case of (by way of example and without limitation):
(1) Painted surfaces on Product which has been subject to scratching or abrasion or impact (including
without limitation “paint rub” occurring in metal to metal contact and movement); has been abused, altered,
modified, used in a manner not originally intended, or stored in a manner contrary to instructions of Manufacturer or
accepted industry practice; is damaged due to moisture entrapment; is stored or installed in a manner which allows
standing water on the paint or is stored or installed in any chemically aggressive environment containing fumes, ash,
cement dust, carbon black, salts, or other chemicals (whether naturally occurring or caused by man); is stored or
installed in an environment that includes a high degree of humidity, sand, dirt, or grease (whether naturally
occurring or caused by man); is stored or installed in a manner which allows contact with animals and/animal waste
or the decomposition products of animal waste; is stored or installed in an area, or in such a manner, that damage
occurs due to poor air circulations; is stored or installed in area which is subject to fallout from copper, lead, nickel,
or silver mining or refining operations; has suffered any damage caused by sudden acts of God or by radiation,

D. Remedy.
Any claim under this limited warranty must be made in writing within the applicable warranty period to the
dealer from which the Product was purchased (or if the dealer is no longer in business, then to Manufacturer).
Manufacturer may require Owner to supply a video and/or photographs of the claimed defect and/or may require
that Owner return the Product at Owner’s expense to Manufacturer for inspection. Owner agrees to cooperate with
any representative sent by Manufacturer and/or by the paint producer and to give such representative full access to
the Product with the claimed defect and the location of its installation and/or storage. If Manufacturer determines
that the claim is valid under the terms of the limited warranty, Manufacturer and/or its warrantor will make
arrangements for and will bear the full cost of labor and material to replace or refinish the defective portion of the
Product. The decision about whether to remedy a defect through replacement or refinishing will be made by
Manufacturer in its sole discretion. Any refinishing of a defective portion will be done in accordance with standard
industry practice in order to provide a uniform appearance with the remainder of the Product. Any replacement or
refinishing arranged by Manufacturer or its warrantor will be covered by and subject to the terms, conditions,
limitations, and exceptions of this limited warranty, provided that the replaced or refinished portion will be deemed
to have been painted on the date the original material for the Product was originally painted; and this limited
warranty will expire at the same time as if there had been no defect. In the event that Manufacturer and Owner ever
agree to, or a claim is otherwise resolved by, a method in which Manufacturer or its warrantor do not voluntarily
replace or repair the part of the Product claimed to be defective, then any replacement or repair of such part made by
any party or person will not be covered by this limited warranty or any other warranty from Manufacturer.
E. Limitations on Remedies and Liability.
THE REMEDIES FOR OWNER DESCRIBED IN THIS LIMITED WARRANTY ARE EXCLUSIVE and
take the place of any other remedy. Manufacturer’s liability, whether in contract or tort, under warranty, product
liability, or otherwise, will not go beyond Manufacturer’s obligations to repair or replace, at it option, the portion of
the Product which is defective under this limited warranty. MANUFACTURER WILL NOT UNDER ANY
CIRCUMSTANCES BE LIABLE FOR SPECIAL INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, including
(but not limited to) damage or loss of other property or equipment, loss of profits or revenues, business or service
interruption, cost of capital, cost of purchase or replacement of other goods, or claims of third parties for any of the
foregoing.
