WARRANTY
Snap-on Logistics Company or its assigns ("Snap-on") provides the following
warranty to customers who purchase tools and equipment from authorized
Snap-on distribution channels for use in their profession ("Buyer"). Snap-on
warrants the Snap-on brand products and Blue-Point brand products against
defects in workmanship and materials for a duration described in each product's
warranty code. The warranty duration depends upon the nature of the product.
If the product information for purchased product does not include a warranty
statement with the applicable duration prior to the product purchase, Buyer can
obtain the product warranty code and warranty duration from the selling Snap-on
dealer or representative or by writing Snap-on at the address provided at the end
of this warranty statement. Consumable products are warranted, at the time of
sale, only against defects in workmanship or materials that prevent their use.
Consumable products are goods reasonably expected to be used up or damaged
during use, including but not limited to drill bits, saw blades, grinding discs,
sanding discs, knife blades, files, O2 sensors and batteries. This warranty only
extends to the original Buyer and cannot be transferred or assigned.
During the applicable duration of the warranty, at its option, Snap-on will repair or
replace its products which fail to give satisfactory service due to a defect in
workmanship or materials, or provide a refund by repaying or crediting Buyer with
an amount equal to the purchase price of such products. Repair, replacement, or
refund shall be at the sole election and expense of Snap-on, and is Buyer's
exclusive remedy in place of all other rights and remedies. To obtain warranty
service, return products to Snap-on or a Snap-on dealer. Proof of purchase must
be provided with all warranty service requests. By repairing or replacing a product,
or providing a refund, Snap-on does not waive a claim that a product nevertheless
has been subject to abnormal use.
In addition to any limitations outlined in warranty statements provided with the
product, Snap-on does NOT provide any warranty for (1) products labeled other than
Snap-on or Blue-Point or (2) products subjected to "abnormal use." Products that
are not labeled Snap-on or Blue-Point are subject to the warranty provided by the
manufacturers of those products and Snap-on will pass along any such warranties.

"Abnormal use" includes misuse, accident, modification, alteration, unreasonable
or improper use, abuse, neglect, lack of maintenance, use in product-related
service, or use after the product is significantly worn. Abnormal use of tool storage
units also includes, without limitation, situations when a unit is pulled using a
mechanical vehicle, rolled over large drops, used in a highly corrosive environment,
used as a step stool, modified with non-Snap-on parts, overloaded, or modified
in any way.
THE FOREGOING WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF AND EXCLUDES ALL OTHER
WARRANTIES NOT EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN, WHETHER EXPRESS OR
IMPLIED BY OPERATION OF LAW OR OTHERWISE, INLCUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND SETS FORTH THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY IN
CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE. SNAP-ON DOES NOT GRANT
ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY PERMISSION TO CREATE FOR IT ANY WARRANTY,
LIABILITY, OR OBLIGATION IN CONNECTION WITH ITS PRODUCTS.
Snap-on and its affiliated companies shall not be liable for any incidental, special
or consequential losses, costs, or damages incurred by Buyer or others, directly or
indirectly arising from the sale, handling or use of the products, or from any other
cause with respect to the products or this warranty, whether such claim is based
upon breach of contract, breach of warranty, strict liability in tort, negligence
or any other legal theory (including without limitation, lost profits, revenues,
anticipated sales, business opportunities, goodwill, or interruption of business
or other injury or damage).
To the extent allowed by applicable law, this warranty and all rights and obligations
hereunder, including matters of construction, validity, and performance, shall be
governed by the substantive laws of the State of Wisconsin, without giving effect
to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.
