(Version June 2022)

 

THESE TSL® TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALE (“TERMS”) APPLY TO HARDWARE AND RELATED PRODUCT OFFERINGS (REFERRED TO HEREIN AS “TSL OFFERINGS”).

TSL’S OFFER IS CONDITIONED UPON ACCEPTANCE BY PURCHASER OF THESE TERMS, INCLUDING ANY ADDITIONAL TERMS REFERENCED HEREIN. TSL REJECTS ANY PURCHASER TERMS THAT ADD TO, VARY FROM, OR CONFLICT WITH THESE TERMS. TSL’S FAILURE TO OBJECT TO PURCHASER TERMS CONTAINED IN ANY COMMUNICATION FROM PURCHASER (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, AN ORDER) IS NOT A WAIVER OF THIS PARAGRAPH.

PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES PURCHASER HAS NOT RELIED ON ANY PROMISE, STATEMENT OR REPRESENTATION MADE OR GIVEN BY OR ON BEHALF OF TSL, OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES, WHICH IS NOT SET OUT IN THESE TERMS. TSL RESERVES THE RIGHT TO AMEND THESE TERMS FROM TIME TO TIME AND SHALL THEREAFTER APPLY TO ALL SUBSEQUENT ORDERS.

2. Order Process and Order Changes.

 

  1. Orders placed by Purchaser are firm and binding on Purchaser once accepted in writing by TSL. If TSL has issued a Pricing Exception Quote, to receive the pricing set forth therein, Purchaser must reference such Quote, including any accompanying numerical identification.
  2. An Order is not valid and binding upon TSL unless and until all the information required by TSL has been provided and accepted. Orders may not be cancelled, suspended, or changed by Purchaser without the prior written consent of TSL.
  3. No Order shall be deemed to be accepted by TSL until an Order Acknowledgement is provided by TSL. TSL reserves the right to accept or reject any Purchaser Order or Quote signed by Purchaser at any time, without liability of any kind.
  4. End Customer may not resell any TSL Offerings. The term “resell” or “resale” shall include any resale, lease, license, sublicense or other transfer or delivery of the TSL Offerings.
  5. All sales are final; no refunds, credits or exchanges apply.

 

3. Pricing and Payment Terms.

 

  1. Unless otherwise indicated, and subject to Sections 3(f) and 3(g), quoted prices for TSL Offerings are firm fixed price (FFP). Subject to Sections 3(f) and 3(g), Pricing remains valid for ninety (90) calendar days from the date of Quote, unless otherwise specified in the Quote.
  2. Subject to Section 3(g), the prices for TSL Offerings sold hereunder will be the prices as shown on the Order Acknowledgment provided to Purchaser and in effect at the time of Order Acknowledgment, or as otherwise agreed upon in writing between Purchaser and TSL. Provided, however, if such prices are based on the purchase of a particular volume and Purchaser fails to purchase such volume, TSL shall have the right (in addition to any other remedies available at law) to collect from Purchaser the difference between the price paid by Purchaser and the price for such items commensurate with the quantity actually purchased by Purchaser.
  3. Invoices are payable within thirty (30) days from the date of invoice in the method and currency identified by TSL in the invoice. All payments shall be invoiced and paid in full and are nonrefundable and non-creditable. No discount for early payment is authorized. Purchaser may not offset, defer or deduct any invoiced amounts that TSL determined are not erroneous following such period. Invoices shall be deemed accepted by Purchaser upon receipt, unless Purchaser advises TSL in writing of a material error within ten (10) days after receipt. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Purchaser may be required to complete a credit application. TSL reserves the right to extend credit to the Purchaser based upon credit determination. Specific financing arrangements will be considered on a case by case basis and the terms and conditions for such will be defined by TSL and binding upon the Purchaser.
  4. Prices do not include, and Purchaser shall pay, any national, state, local, or international property, license, privilege, sales, use, excise, gross receipts, VAT, duty or other like taxes relating to the sale, delivery, receipt, payment for or use of the TSL Offerings including any interest, penalty and additional tax or other charge related to delay or failure to pay such amount (“Taxes”). If TSL is required to collect any Taxes for those payments made directly to TSL such Taxes will be itemized separately on the invoice and paid by Purchaser. TSL will accept a valid Tax exemption certificate from Purchaser, if applicable. If an exemption certificate previously accepted by TSL is not recognized by the relevant governmental taxing authority, Purchaser agrees to promptly reimburse TSL for any Taxes covered by such exemption certificate which TSL is required to pay.
  5. If Purchaser fails to pay the price or any other amount due and payable hereunder, no right to use the TSL Offerings shall pass from TSL to End Customer. Any amount due by Purchaser hereunder which remains unpaid after the due date shall be subject to a late charge equal to 1.5% per month or the maximum permitted by applicable law, which interest will be immediately due and payable from the payment due date until the date of actual receipt in cleared funds by TSL. TSL, without waiving other rights or remedies and without liability to Purchaser, may suspend or terminate and refuse additional Orders until overdue amounts are fully paid by Purchaser.
  6. TSL reserves the right to change its prices at any time and without notice. The terms for price changes for Orders previously accepted by TSL are subject to Price Modification in accordance with Section 3(g) below.
  7. TSL may modify pricing (“Price Modification”) with respect to Orders that have been previously accepted by TSL, to the extent TSL deems necessary, for reasons including but not limited to: (i) price increases imposed by TSL’s suppliers; (ii) Purchaser’s required procurement timelines; (iii) supply chain constraints or material shortages; or (iv) other events outside of TSL’s control impacting the relevant industry. Purchasers may reject the Price Modification by cancelling the applicable lines of the Order subject to the Price Modification within 14 calendar days of the Price Modification notification.  If requested by TSL, Purchaser agrees to issue, or otherwise agree to, a revised or supplemental Order pursuant to this Section. If Purchaser fails or refuses to issue or agree to a revised or supplemental Order reflecting a Price Modification, TSL may in its sole discretion, in addition to any other remedy it may have, cancel the Order or hold such Order until such revised or supplemental order has been issued or provided. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless the Purchaser cancels the Order within 14 days of the Price Modification notification, such Price Modification shall be binding regardless of Purchaser’s failure or refusal to issue or provide a revised or supplemental Order.

 

4. Delivery.

 

  1. Upon acceptance of an Order by TSL and the satisfaction of all TSL prerequisites prior to delivery, TSL shall ship the TSL Offerings and any associated Documentation to Purchaser or End Customer, as applicable, by full or partial shipment, in accordance with the Order Acknowledgement. Unless otherwise mutually agreed by the parties, all TSL Offerings and Documentation delivered in a tangible form shall be supplied EXWorks (INCOTERMS 2020) and shall be deemed shipped upon being made available to the first carrier at TSL’s site. Title shall pass from TSL to Purchaser upon tender to first carrier. TSL’s acceptance of an Order issued by Purchaser does not constitute acceptance of the INCOTERMS set forth in the Order. Notwithstanding, all fees associated with customs formalities, including import and export, are Purchaser’s sole responsibility. If requested by Purchaser, TSL will arrange transport and add freight and handling charges to the Purchaser’s invoice.
  2. TSL will assign estimated shipment dates on Orders based on the availability of the TSL Offerings and TSL’s acceptance of Purchaser’s Order. TSL will make commercially reasonable efforts to meet its assigned shipment dates. However, TSL will not be liable for its failure to meet such dates. If Purchaser or End Customer requests or otherwise causes TSL to store TSL Offerings beyond the assigned shipment date, Purchaser will be invoiced a commercially reasonable service and handling fee. TSL shall have no liability to Purchaser for delayed or cancelled shipments due to TSL’s compliance with applicable trade or export regulations or sanctions.

 

5. Embeddable Hardware.

 

To the extent the TSL Offerings purchased constitute embeddable hardware, the terms attached hereto as Addendum 2 shall apply.

 

6. TSL Offering Changes.

 

TSL reserves the right to discontinue the manufacture of any of the TSL Offerings, to make changes in any TSL Offering design, or to make modifications to the TSL Offerings at any time that do not affect the form, fit or function of the TSL Offering without prior notice to Purchaser. In no event, will TSL be required to change TSL Offering previously sold to Purchaser. This Section will not affect any Orders that have been previously accepted by TSL.

 

7. Intellectual Property and Proprietary Rights.

 

These Terms does not constitute a sale of any Intellectual Property Rights or other proprietary interests embodied in the TSL Offerings, the Documentation or any component thereof (or any copy, derivative work, upgrade, update, improvement or modification thereof), and nothing herein shall be deemed to establish or imply that any rights and/or license granted constitutes a conveyance of any underlying Intellectual Property Rights. TSL, its suppliers and service providers retain all right, title and interest in the TSL Offerings and associated Documentation, and all Intellectual Property Rights embodied therein or relating thereto. Purchaser agrees to maintain the copyright, patent, trademark and other notices appearing on the Documentation. All rights not expressly granted under these Terms are reserved by TSL. There are no implied rights. For clarity, no customization or alteration to the TSL Offerings, or any specifications, shall constitute a transfer of Intellectual Property Rights in the TSL Offerings and TSL, its suppliers and service providers shall retail all right, title and interest in any Custom TSL Offerings.

 

8. Confidentiality.

 

TSL and Purchaser acknowledge that each party may have access to certain of the other party’s confidential and proprietary information in connection with the performance of these Terms (the “Confidential Information”). Each party will take all reasonable precautions necessary to safeguard the confidentiality of the other party’s Confidential Information, including those taken by such party to protect its own Confidential Information of a similar nature. Each party will use the other party’s Confidential Information solely to fulfill the purposes of these Terms. Neither party will have any confidentiality obligation with respect to any portion of the other party’s information that (i) it independently develops without reference to the Confidential Information, (ii) it lawfully obtains from a third party under no obligation of confidentiality, or (iii) becomes available to the public other than as a result of its act or omission. Because of the unique nature of the Confidential Information, each party agrees that the disclosing party may suffer irreparable harm in the event the recipient fails to comply with its confidentiality obligations under these Terms, and that monetary damages may be inadequate to compensate the disclosing party for such breach. Accordingly, the recipient agrees that the disclosing party will, in addition to any other remedies available to it at law or in equity, be entitled to seek injunctive relief to enforce such confidentiality obligations.

 

9. Limited Warranty and Disclaimers.

 

  1. The terms of the General Warranty Policy attached hereto as Addendum 1 contains the warranty terms that apply to the TSL Offerings and are hereby incorporated into these Terms by reference. All warranties are solely for the benefit of the End Customer. Provided, however, TSL does not accept warranty claims directly from End Customers that purchase TSL Offerings from a Channel Partner. Channel Partners are expected to manage warranty claims escalated by End Customers.
  2. TSL represents and warrants to Purchaser that TSL has the authority to enter into these Terms and grant the rights set forth herein.
  3. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE TSL OFFERINGS ARE SOLD “AS IS”. TSL, ITS AFFILIATES AND ITS THIRD-PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NONINFRINGEMENT AND THOSE ARISING FROM COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, COURSE OF DEALING, OR FROM USAGE OF TRADE. TSL DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE TSL OFFERINGS MEET PURCHASER OR END CUSTOMER’S REQUIREMENTS, OR THAT THE OPERATION OF ANY SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, WITHOUT DOWNTIME, WITHOUT DATA LOSS, OR THAT DEFECTS IN THE SERVICES WILL BE CORRECTED. FURTHERMORE, NEITHER TSL NOR ITS THIRD-PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS WARRANT OR MAKE ANY REPRESENTATIONS REGARDING THE PERFORMANCE OR THE RESULTS OF THE USE OF THE TSL OFFERINGS OR DOCUMENTATION IN TERMS OF THEIR CORRECTNESS, ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE. NO ORAL OR WRITTEN INFORMATION OR ADVICE GIVEN BY TSL OR ITS AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVES SHALL CREATE A WARRANTY OR IN ANY WAY INCREASE THE SCOPE OF THIS WARRANTY.
  4. The foregoing limitations and exclusions apply to the extent permitted by applicable law in End Customer’s jurisdiction. If applicable law limits the application of the provisions of this Section, TSL’s liability will be limited to the maximum extent permissible.

 

10. Indemnification.

Purchaser shall defend, indemnify, and hold TSL, its Affiliates, officers, directors, third-party service providers and employees, harmless from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, costs or other expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) that arise directly or indirectly out of breach of Section 12.
  3. If Purchaser is a Channel Partner, Purchaser shall further defend, indemnify, and hold TSL, its Affiliates, officers, directors, third-party service providers, and employees, harmless from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, costs or other expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) that arise directly or indirectly out of: (i) sale of the TSL Offerings pursuant to no terms and/or conditions or terms and/or conditions less protective of TSL, the TSL Offerings, and the Intellectual Property Rights than those set forth in these Terms; or (ii) TSL’s suspension, cancellation, or termination of End Customer(s) right to use the TSL Offerings at Purchaser’s request or due to non-payment or insolvency by Purchaser.
  4. TSL shall defend, hold harmless and indemnify Purchaser from a claim against Purchaser by a third party that the TSL Offerings, used within the scope of and in compliance with these Terms, infringe a third-party copyright or patent (a “Covered Claim”) and will pay for all costs, damages, and expenses finally awarded by a court of competent jurisdiction or agreed to by TSL in a settlement of such Covered Claim. In the event that TSL anticipates that the TSL Offerings may or do become subject to Covered Claim, TSL shall have, at its sole option, the right to (i) obtain for Purchaser the right to continue using the TSL Offerings; (ii) substitute the TSL Offerings with another substantially similar offering; or (iii) without being in breach of these Terms: (a) revoke any right Purchaser has to purchase, use, resell, or otherwise exercise or grant any additional rights, as applicable, with respect to the infringing portion of the TSL Offerings; and (b) require Purchaser to revoke any such rights it has directly or indirectly granted others (“Downstream parties”).

Addendum 1

 

General Warranty Policy

 

EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE SET FORTH HEREIN, ALL WARRANTIES ARE SOLELY FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE END CUSTOMER. ANY PURCHASE FROM A THIRD PARTY THAT IS NOT A TSL APPROVED CHANNEL PARTNER SHALL NOT BE ELIGIBLE FOR THE WARRANTIES CONTAINED HEREIN.

TSL RESERVES THE RIGHT TO AMEND THIS WARRANTY POLICY FROM TIME TO TIME AND THEREAFTER, IT SHALL APPLY TO ALL SUBSEQUENT ORDERS. TSL RESERVES THE RIGHT TO IMPROVE/MODIFY TSL OFFERINGS AT ANY TIME, AT ITS SOLE DISCRETION, AS IT DEEMS NECESSARY.

 

A. GENERAL LIMITED WARRANTY

 

TSL warrants that the hardware will be free from material defects in materials and workmanship and will substantially conform to the applicable Documentation in effect as of the date of manufacture for a period of one (1) year from the date of shipment by TSL (“Warranty Period”). This warranty does not apply to integrated hardware components. Notwithstanding, if the TSL Offering is an integrated hardware component purchased by a Channel Partner authorized to act as an OEM, the warranty shall apply to the Purchaser instead of the End Customer.

 

B. REMEDY

 

TSL’s sole and exclusive liability and End Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy under the hardware limited warranty shall be to, at TSL’s election, either: (i) repair the hardware; (ii) replace the hardware with new or refurbished hardware (replacement hardware being of identical model or functional equivalent – replacement parts may be new or equivalent to new); or (iii) provide to End Customer a credit towards End Customer’s future purchase of hardware from TSL in the amount received by TSL for the hardware (excluding taxes and levies). Any replacement hardware will be warranted for the remainder of the original Warranty Period, or for ninety (90) days, whichever is longer. Notwithstanding, if the TSL Offering is an integrated hardware component purchased by a Channel Partner authorized to act as an OEM, the remedy shall apply to the Purchaser instead of the End Customer.

 

The above remedies are available only if TSL is promptly notified in writing within the Warranty Period. After the applicable Warranty Period has expired, any repair, replacement or workaround services provided by TSL will be at TSL’s current standard service rates.

 

C. STANDARD Return Merchandise Authorization (“RMA”) Policy

 

To return hardware that has failed during the applicable warranty period (“Warranty-Return Hardware”), End Customer or Channel Partner, as applicable, must: (i) complete this RMA form and provide TSL with the model number and serial number of the hardware and a description of the claimed hardware defect; (ii) inform TSL of the Warranty-Return Hardware by contacting: rma@tsl.com

 

TSL will issue End Customer or Channel Partner, as applicable, an RMA number. No RMA number will be issued to End Customer or Channel Partner, as applicable, if the applicable warranty period for the hardware has expired. Except as otherwise stated herein or agreed by TSL in writing, End Customer or Channel Partner, as applicable, will need to, at End Customer or Channel Partner’s cost, as applicable: (i) including any taxes and duties; (ii) remove and return the Warranty-Return Hardware to TSL; and (iii) install and/or deploy any repaired/replacement hardware provided by TSL.

 

All hardware which is returned to TSL for warranty service and not returned to End Customer or Channel Partner, as applicable, will become the property and possession of TSL.

 

Return shipment of the Warranty-Return Hardware to TSL must be made within thirty (30) calendar days of TSL’s issuance of the applicable RMA number (“RMA Timeframe”). The hardware must be returned to TSL in a testable condition otherwise the warranty is invalidated.

 

Warranty-return hardware is to be shipped to the TSL location from where it was shipped originally. End Customer or Channel Partner, as applicable, must return the hardware to TSL with the RMA number clearly marked on the package.

 

Any package received by TSL without an RMA number or shipped outside of the applicable RMA Timeframe will be refused and shipped back to End Customer or Channel Partner, as applicable,. A new RMA number must be obtained for any hardware returned to End Customer or Channel Partner, as applicable, due to End Customer or Channel Partner, failure, as applicable, to adhere to this RMA Policy.

 

Upon TSL’s receipt of the Warranty-Return Hardware from End Customer or Channel Partner, as applicable, TSL will evaluate the hardware to determine whether it is covered under the applicable warranty. If TSL determines the hardware is covered under warranty, TSL will take the corrective warranty action described in the applicable warranty policy, depending on the type of hardware.

 

End Customer or Channel Partner, as applicable, agrees to pay TSL a minimum per unit charge £45.00 GBP for any hardware evaluated by TSL and determined not to be defective or covered by warranty. If End Customer or Channel Partner, as applicable, receives replacement hardware from TSL but fails to return the Warranty-Return Hardware within thirty (30) calendar days from TSL’s issuance of the applicable RMA number, TSL reserves the right to invoice End Customer or Channel Partner, as applicable, and End Customer or Channel Partner, as applicable, shall pay the current list price for such unreturned hardware. End Customer or Channel Partner, as applicable, agrees to promptly initiate payments owed pursuant to this Section by issuance of a purchase order or credit card payment.

 

Notwithstanding, End Customer or Channel Partner, as applicable, shall not be required to return the following hardware, unless requested in writing by TSL within thirty (30) calendar days of End Customer or Channel Partner’s receipt of replacement hardware, as applicable. End Customer or Channel Partner, as applicable, will thereafter cease use and securely dispose of the unreturned hardware.

 

Repack the device in its original packing material. If the original packing material is not available, use an alternative and secure packing method (see below). Any damage caused by inadequate packing is not covered by warranty or maintenance contract.

 

For clarity, postage, insurance, or shipping costs incurred in presenting hardware for warranty service is End Customer or Channel Partner’s sole responsibility, as applicable.

 

D. WARRANTY EXCLUSIONS

 

  1. All warranties are VOID if TSL Offerings have been: (i) improperly installed by anyone other than TSL or where the serial numbers, warranty data or quality assurance decals on the hardware are removed or altered; (ii) used in a manner other than as authorized under the Documentation applicable to the TSL Offering or designed to circumvent the security of the TSL Offering; (iii) not installed, operated or maintained in accordance with the instructions supplied by TSL, including but not limited to the installation, operation or maintenance of the TSL Offerings on any hardware, operating system or tools (including their specific configurations) that are not compatible with the TSL Offerings; (iv) modified, altered or repaired by a party other than TSL or a party authorized by TSL; (v) combined and/or connected to any hardware, operating system or tools (including their specific configurations) not provided by TSL or otherwise authorized by TSL for integration or use with the TSL Offerings; (vi) operated or maintained in unsuitable environmental conditions, or by any other cause external to the TSL Offering or otherwise beyond TSL’s reasonable control, including any extreme power surge or failure or electromagnetic field, rough handling during transportation, fire or acts of God; (vii) used with telecommunication interfaces other than those supplied or approved by TSL which do not meet or are not maintained in accordance with the Documentation, unless otherwise specifically agreed in writing within the scope of these Terms; (viii) damaged due to failure of power, air conditioning or humidity control, or failures of storage media not furnished by TSL; (ix) subjected to accident, neglect, misuse or negligence of Purchaser, End Customer, its employees, agents, contractors, visitors or any other third party, or operator error; or (x) used in criminal activity or in violation of any applicable regulations or governmental standards.

Further, TSL warranty is null and void upon the embedding into other products unless precautions and recommendations provided in applicable product data sheets, application notes and developer guides are followed.

 

  1. This warranty is VOID if the TSL Offering is misused, altered, tampered with or is installed or used in a manner that is inconsistent with TSL’s written recommendations, specifications and/or instructions, or fails to perform due to normal wear and tear.

 

E. Warranty Limitations and Disclaimer

 

IN NO EVENT SHALL TSL, ITS AFFILIATES OR THIRD PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS OR THEIR RESPECTIVE DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES OR AGENTS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE USE OF THE TSL OFFERINGS (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, BUSINESS, LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BREACH, GOODWILL, ANTICIPATED SAVINGS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF BUSINESS INFORMATION AND THE LIKE), EVEN IF TSL OR ITS AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

 

EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE TSL OFFERINGS ARE SOLD “AS IS”. TSL, ITS AFFILIATES AND ITS THIRD-PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NONINFRINGEMENT AND THOSE ARISING FROM COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, COURSE OF DEALING, OR FROM USAGE OF TRADE.  TSL DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE TSL OFFERINGS MEET END CUSTOMER’S REQUIREMENTS, OR THAT THE OPERATION OF ANY SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, WITHOUT DOWNTIME, WITHOUT DATA LOSS, OR THAT DEFECTS IN THE SERVICES WILL BE CORRECTED.  FURTHERMORE, NEITHER TSL NOR ITS THIRD-PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS WARRANT OR MAKE ANY REPRESENTATIONS REGARDING THE PERFORMANCE OR THE RESULTS OF THE USE OF THE TSL OFFERINGS OR DOCUMENTATION IN TERMS OF THEIR CORRECTNESS, ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE. NO ORAL OR WRITTEN INFORMATION OR ADVICE GIVEN BY TSL OR ITS AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVES SHALL CREATE A WARRANTY OR IN ANY WAY INCREASE THE SCOPE OF THIS WARRANTY.

 

The foregoing limitations and exclusions apply to the extent permitted by applicable law in End Customer’s jurisdiction.  If applicable law limits the application of the provisions of this Section, TSL’s liability will be limited to the maximum extent permissible.
