Osseointegration Guarantee

Limited Warranty

Argon provides solely to a Buyer that is also a treating clinician provider (“Clinician Buyer”) a limited warranty on the Products (“Limited Warranty” or the “Limited Warranty Program”). The Limited
Warranty is exclusively for the benefit of a Clinician Buyer and is not for the benefit of any other Buyer, including patients, laboratories, and other intermediate supplier. As such, there is no right, title, or interest in this Limited Warranty other than those expressly stated for a Clinician Buyer. For purposes of this Limited Warranty, the Clinician Buyer shall mean the individual that actually installed and purchased the Product. Products will be replaced if removal of said Product is due to the failure or defect of the Product itself, and if covered under the Limited Warranty set forth in this Section. The Limited Warranty shall only cover the costs of replacing the Product. Argon shall not cover any of the expenses included in the removal or installation of the Product. The total amount paid by or given in exchange for the Limited Warranty shall be limited and will not exceed the total amount the Clinician Buyer paid for the Product subject to the Limited Warranty claim. This Limited Warranty has no cash value and is not transferable to any third party.
