ALL APPLICABLE WARRANTIES ARE PROVIDED BY THE MANUFACTURER AND A COPY OF THE MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY WILL BE PROVIDED BY JCH UPON WRITTEN REQUEST. IT IS THE BUYER'S SOLE RESPONSIBILITY TO DETERMINE SUFFICIENCY OF THE APPLICABLE MANUFACTURER'S PRODUCT WARRANTY. Such manufacturer's warranties are conditioned upon Buyer's performance of all manufacturer requirements set forth therein and upon Buyer notifying JCH of any defects within thirty (30) calendar days of delivery. If JCH's vendor is a distributor, the warranty will be based on the warranty that the distributor has through their manufacturer/vendor.

b. Subject to the provisions of paragraph 5 hereof, JCH warrants that any goods to be sold hereunder shall substantially conform to the goods described on the reverse side of this invoice and any specifications noted therein. In the event that a specific brand name or specific manufacturer's product is specified on the reverse side hereof, JCH reserves the right to ship goods of a different brand-name and/or manufacturer so long as they conform to the specifications contained on the reverse side of this invoice.

c. THE WARRANTIES SET FORTH HEREIN ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ANY OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WHICH ARE HEREBY DISCLAIMED AND EXCLUDED BY JCH. JCH MAKES NO WARRANTIES, COVENANTS, OR REPRESENTATIONS, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, BEYOND THOSE EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN. THERE IS NO WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY AND THERE ARE NO WARRANTIES OF FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR USE. NO REPRESENTATIONS OF FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE SHALL BE IMPLIED FROM SPECIFICATIONS, IF ANY, SET FORTH HEREIN, OR BY THE NATURE OF THE GOODS.

d. In the event a court of competent jurisdiction should determine that the foregoing warranty limitations and disclaimers are unenforceable for any reason whatsoever, or in any other event, JCH shall only be liable for any defective or nonconforming goods if: (i) the goods are used for their intended purpose and solely under the conditions and in the manner recommended in manufacturers' specifications or other instructions; (ii) the goods have not been misused or abused in any manner; (iii) no repairs have been attempted by anyone other than JCH thereon; (iv) subject to the provisions of paragraph 5 hereof, prompt written notice of any such defect or nonconformity is forwarded to JCH (which notice must in any event be sent to JCH no later than thirty (30) days after shipment of the goods to Buyer) and the goods are returned to JCH promptly, freight prepaid by Buyer, and directions received by Buyer, if any, for properly identifying items returned are carefully followed; and (v) such written notice authorizes JCH to examine returned goods to the extent JCH deems necessary in order to ascertain the cause of failure.

e. In any event the liability of JCH shall be limited to an obligation to replace or repair such goods or to provide a credit adjustment, as JCH may in its sole discretion deem appropriate.
