RESOLUTION
If the Products fail to meet the performance criteria listed in their particular Install Specifications during the Lifetime Warranty, then the owner�s exclusive remedy and the sole obligation of Custom EPS Inc., at the discretion of Custom EPS Inc., shall be to
a. reinstall or replace the failed portion of Products; or, b. pay an amount not to exceed the original cost of the Products and installation.
In any event, Custom EPS Inc. shall not be liable to repair or replace any other items, including but not limited to the surface that the Products are installed upon, adjacent items affected by the Products, or other damage caused by or flowing from the failure of the Products.
