II. Express Warranty: Duration. Subject to the Registration and Transfer Requirements and all other Conditions, Limitations, and Exclusions set forth herein below, Warrantors hereby warrant that the AECS shall be free from defects and will not peel, blister, crack or flake, as the result of any product defect in AECS products, for a term of twenty-five (25) years from the date installation is completed, provided Purchaser maintains continuous ownership of the House or properly transfers and assigns the Warranty in accordance with the terms set forth below. III. Conditions. Warrantors’ obligations under this Warranty are expressly made conditional upon: (1) Installation and application of the AECS by an authorized dealer in strict conformance with all directions and specifications of PPPUSA; (2) Installation only upon standard non-corrosive building materials limited to walls, eaves, soffit, trim, and fascia; (3) Proper preparation of all surfaces prior to installation; (4) Payment in full for materials and installation; (5) Presentation of warranty and proof of purchase or transfer; and (6) Application of AECS products obtained only from originally labeled containers and that is undiluted by additives or thinners not authorized in writing by PPPUSA. IV. Limitations and Exclusions. This Warranty covers only the specified damages arising solely from defects in the manufacturing of AECS products. It does not cover failure of or damage to AECS products resulting from settlement of the structure on which the products are installed or shifting of structural or adjoining surfaces, failure of the structure (including, but not limited to, foundation and walls), impact from foreign objects, accidental damage or negligence, intentional acts of damage, fire, wind, flood, lightning, acts of God, misuse, improper care or failure to provide reasonable and necessary maintenance (including, but not limited to, the failure to timely make necessary repairs to the house or other structure, failure to timely remove or prevent build-up of leaves, mulch, debris, moss, mildew, dirt, or water intrusion from roofs, gutters, punctures, open joints, or seams), interior moisture conditions (i.e. defective kitchen or bathroom fans, internal plumbing issues such as overflowing tubs or sinks), failure of the substrate wall (rot) on which the AECS was applied due to movement, settlement, or condensation, mildew (including, but not limited to, the failure to address and remedy a mildew issue if one appears), exposure to harmful chemicals or vapors, surface discoloration due to atmospheric pollution, or the installation of accessories or other products which are installed in a manner detrimental to the performance of the AECS.

Improper or incorrectly performed maintenance or repair voids this warranty V. Limitation of Remedies. In the event of any defect in, or failure of, the AECS covered under this Warranty, Warrantors’ sole obligation, and the sole remedy provide under this Warranty, is the provision to Purchaser, or to a subsequent homeowner to whom the Warranty was properly transferred under the terms of this Warranty, of a sufficient quantity of AECS products of the original color to repair the affected area. Warrantor shall not be subject to liability of any nature for actual, incidental, consequential, special, or indirect damages of any kind, whether or not foreseeable, including but not limited to property damage, loss of value, installation expenses, rental expenses, inconvenience, lost profits, and/or business interruption. VI. Disclaimer. Except for the limited express Warranty provided herein, Warrantor expressly disclaims all other warranties, express or implied, including, but not limited to, implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose.

The warranty registration form, together with all documentation due from the installer, must be RECEIVED by PPPUSA within thirty (30) days after the completed installation of the AECS. VIII. Transfer, In the event Purchaser sells the House during the term of this Warranty, Purchaser may transfer and assign this Warranty to the subsequent homeowner (“Transferee”), provided the following conditions are met. Failure to timely satisfy these conditions will relieve Warrantor of any further obligation under this Warranty.

B) PPPUSA must receive a properly completed Warranty Transfer Form and a transfer fee in the amount of one hundred dollars ($100) from Transferee within sixty (60) days of the date Transferee acquires ownership of the House, upon which PPPUSA will issue a written warranty acknowledgement to Transferee.

Warrantor reserves the right to have a representative inspect all warranted products that are alleged to be defective or have failed under the terms of this Warranty, and shall be provided with a reasonable opportunity to do so. Any alteration, removal, or repair of the AECS products which are claimed to be defective or have failed prior to settlement of the claim shall bar any right of Purchaser or Transferee to relief under this Warranty.
