Limited Warranty; Limitation of Liability
TMC warrants all of its catalog products to the original purchaser against defects in workmanship and materials for 180 days from the date of purchase from TMC (the “warranty period”). Claims for breach of warranty that are not received in writing by TMC within the warranty period are waived. TMC may require that Customer return the alleged defective product, freight prepaid, pursuant to TMC’s written authorization before remedying a breach of warranty.
TMC’s only liability and the exclusive remedy of Customer in the event of any defect is for TMC to provide at TMC’s option, either
1. a full refund or credit in the amount of the purchase price, or
2. the repair or replacement of the product.
This warranty does not cover: (1) damage caused by misuse (including violation of TMC’s instructions), neglect (including failure to store in accordance with TMC’s instructions and specifications), accident or causes external to the product; (2) any product on which the serial number or lot code has been removed or made illegible; (3) any product or part thereof that has been modified by anyone other than TMC, unless authorized by TMC or in accordance with the product’s instructions for use; (4) re-use of a product sold for single use; or (5) the removal or defacing of any labeling of the product.
TMC WARRANTIES ARE LIMITED EXCLUSIVELY TO THIS EXPRESS WARRANTY. ANY OTHER WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND OR DESCRIPTION WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, ARE DISCLAIMED.
TMC will not be liable for any indirect, consequential, incidental, punitive, special, exemplary, or contingent loss or damage (including without limitation lost or anticipated profits and savings or damage to goodwill) arising from or in connection with the purchase, use of, or inability to use, or unavailability of, the TMC products or otherwise in connection with this agreement, even if TMC has been advised of the likelihood of such damages. TMC’s maximum aggregate liability for any loss, damage, injury or expense related to its products, services or this agreement, whether such liability arises out of breach of contract, negligence or otherwise, will not exceed the actual amounts paid by Customer to TMC for the TMC product(s) involved in such claim. The limitations in this section will not preclude any liability which, under applicable products liability law, cannot legally be precluded by contract.
Compliance
Customer agrees to comply with all applicable laws in connection with the purchase of TMC products and product pricing, including all requirements to disclose and report the existence and terms of discounts to Medicare, Medicaid or other Federal or State health care programs in accordance with 42 C.F.R. § 1001.952(h)(1) and further agrees that any reduction in price offered to Customer hereunder is subject to the aforementioned regulation. If Customer is an individual or an entity in whose name a claim or request for payment may be submitted to a Federal or State health care program or an individual or entity who submits cost reports to Federal or State health care programs, Customer agrees to, upon request, provide the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services or a State agency with the discount information contained in any price quotation, the invoice, and any discount statement, as specified in 42 C.F.R. 1001.952(h)(2)(ii). In addition, if Customer is a buyer that reports costs on a cost report required by a Federal or State health care program, Customer agrees to the following: (a) any discount must be earned on purchases of the same good or service bought within a single fiscal year of the Customer; and (b) Customer must claim the benefit of any discount in the fiscal year in which the discount is earned or the following year. Customer must also fully and accurately report the effect of any discount on the effective price paid for products on any applicable cost report (or claim form if such claim form requires cost reporting) covering the products submitted to a Federal or State health care program. Customer acknowledges that Customer should consult with its accountants, legal counsel, or other advisors regarding any reporting obligations it may have, including appropriate calculation methodologies used to report discounts, rebates, product upgrades, or credits received from the Company.
