shall MILLER accept such notification later than twenty-four (24) months from date of delivery or twelve
(12) months from date placed in service, whichever is earlier.

MILLER's obligation under this warranty, statutory or otherwise, is limited to the repair or replacement at
the MILLER factory, or at a point designated by MILLER, of such part or parts as shall appear upon
inspection by MILLER to be defective in material or workmanship. New or remanufactured parts will be
used for any replacement at MILLER's option. This warranty is not transferable. This warranty does not

contract, breach of warranty, misrepresentation or any other legal theory, regardless of whether the loss
resulted from any general or particular requirement which MILLER knew or had reason to know about at
the time of sale.

MILLER MAKES NO WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO THE FINISHED PRODUCTS
MANUFACTURED OR SUPPLIED BY ANOTHER MANUFACTURER AND SUPPLIED BY MILLER TO
PURCHASER, including, but not limited to, any vehicle to which a MILLER product may be affixed or any

warranties as are extended by such manufacturers or suppliers. MILLER shall, to the extent permitted
under applicable law, pass on to the purchaser such manufacturer's or seller's warranty.

MILLER, whose policy is one of continuous improvement, reserves the right to improve its products
through changes in design or materials as it may deem desirable without being obligated to incorporate
such changes in products previously sold. This warranty is not intended to cover or include the following
items, which are set forth by way of example and not limitation:

A. Normal deterioration of trim, paint, lettering, and appearance items due to wear or exposure to

weather, road conditions, road treatments, etc.

B. Any damage or defect due to accident, misuse, abuse, improper or unauthorized repairs, failure
