The foregoing limited warranty is Pakedge’ s sole warranty and is applicable only to Products sold as new by

whether expressed, implied or statutory, including but not limited to, any implied warranty of merchantability,

damages including but not limited to incidental, consequential or special damages, or any financial loss, lost

CAUTION: DAMAGE RESULTING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY FROM IMPROPER INSTALLATION OR SETUP
IS SPECIFICALLY EXCLUDED FROM COVERAGE UNDER THIS WARRRANTY. IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT
