Limitation of Liability

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL MANUFACTURER OR ITS AUTHORIZED SERVICE
REPRESENTATIVES BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, INDIRECT, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING
ANY ECONOMIC LOSS, WHETHER RESULTING FROM NONPERFORMANCE, USE, MISUSE OR INABILITY TO USE THE
INSINKERATOR PRODUCT OR THE MANUFACTURER’S OR ITS AUTHORIZED SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE’S NEGLIGENCE.
MANUFACTURER SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES CAUSED BY DELAY IN PERFORMANCE AND IN NO EVENT,
REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF THE CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, INFRINGEMENT,

PRICE PAID BY THE ORIGINAL OWNER FOR THE INSINKERATOR PRODUCT.
The term “consequential damages” shall include, but not be limited to, loss of anticipated profits, business interruption, loss of use or
revenue, cost of capital or loss or damage to property or equipment.
Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation may not apply to
