The label or product sensor is calibrated at the factory and will function without adjustment for the
majority of applications. However certain applications may require adjusting sensor parameters to
achieve maximum performance. Follow the instructions below to calibrate the sensor as required.
1This illustration shows the sensor, label and liner relationship as viewed from the side. The sensor
components consist of an upper emitter 1 and a lower receiver 2. The sensor is calibrated to
detect the gap or space 3 between labels on the liner 4.
2This illustration shows the sensor prole. The sensor prole is a graphic representation of what
the sensor “sees” as the media passes through it. The wavy line 5 is the sensor value when
the sensor is seeing the label and liner and the spike 6 is the sensor value when the label sees
the label gap or liner only. The graph 7 represents numerical values of what the sensor might
see. The values range from 0 to 255. Where 0 is a completely opaque material and 255 is a
completely transparent material.
A software algorithm is used to determine the actual value required to indicate wether the sensor is
seeing a label or gap. In some applications this value may need to be adjusted manually. Follow the
instructions on the following pages to determine and set the Sensor No Product Value.

6. Performance of System and Product Samples.
6.1 Acceptance Criteria of System Performance. The acceptance testing shall be conducted in two (2) phases, as set forth below:
6.1.1 Phase One Acceptance Testing. Prior to shipping the equipment from the Multifeeder Technology, Inc. facility to the place of delivery, MFT
will conduct a system performance test mutually-agreed upon with the Buyer and reduced to a writing signed by both Parties. Buyer may,
at its option, witness the Phase One Acceptance Test in person or by electronic means supplied by MFT. If the Parties do not agree upon
an a specific test, the Parties agree that MFT will conduct a 30-minute test demonstrating 90% uptime, after excluding any lost time or lost
production due to Nonconforming Product Samples (defined in section 3.3 of Exhibit A and all related subsections) or other factors out of
MFT’s control. MFT reserves the right to restart or continue the test until completed, or to abbreviate the test by discounting lost time or lost
production due to Nonconforming Product Samples or other factors out of MFT’s control. It is Buyer’s responsibility to supply an adequate
amount of acceptable quality test product pursuant to ¶ 6.2 below. MFT bears no responsibility if Buyer fails to provide Product Samples to
MFT.
6.1.2 Phase Two Acceptance Testing. After completion of delivery of the System, assembly, and training at the place-of-delivery, MFT personnel
will conduct a second test to confirm the System’s performance (“Phase Two Acceptance Testing”). The Phase Two Acceptance Testing will
be conducted using the same Product Samples and performance criteria specified for the Phase One Testing. If the Phase One performance
criteria are met during the Phase Two Acceptance Testing, the Parties agree that the System shall be deemed accepted.
6.2 Acceptance of All Other Goods. For any other goods that are not subject to paragraphs 6.1.1 – 6.1.2, Buyer will have ten (10) days after receipt
to reject nonconforming goods before such goods are deemed accepted by Buyer.

6.3 Product Samples. Seller requires Buyer to supply Product Samples to MFT prior to MFT’s submission of a Proposal to Buyer, and in sufficient
quantities to (a) evaluate Product Samples for consistency in structure and form, and (b) design the System Specifications to process the
Product Samples provided. The projected System performance, as presented in the Proposal, is valid only for Product Samples provided to
Seller prior to the date of the Proposal. Buyer must also supply to Seller actual Product Samples to the same specification as those provided
prior to the MFT Proposal, so that MFT may conduct Acceptance Testing of the System, as set forth above in paragraphs 6.1.1-6.1.2. MFT will
estimate and advise Buyer of the quantity of Product Samples MFT requires. If not otherwise specified by MFT, MFT requires a stack of each
Product Sample, approximately 25 inches high, for testing any System that is composed of feeders. If automatic product loaders are to be
tested, a minimum of 5,000 samples are required. Product Samples should be shipped at Buyer’s cost to Seller no later than ten (10) days after
Seller’s acceptance of Buyer’s Order. Product Samples will not be returned. Seller does not guarantee feeding performance of any specific
product unless an exact Product Sample has been tested before delivery of the System to Buyer. LIMITED WARRANTY AND LIMITATION
OF LIABILITY To activate the warranty, Buyer must sign and return to MFT (a) the Proposal and (b) fully completed warranty registration
cards, which Buyer will receive with the System. Seller warrants to Buyer, for a period of one year from the date of delivery of the System to
Buyer or for 2000 operating hours, whichever occurs first, that the System or Accessory Product(s) will be free from defects in material and
workmanship. An extension of this Limited Warranty is available for an additional charge. OTHER THAN THE FOREGOING, NO WARR ANTY
OR GUARANTEE, WHETHER STATUTORY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY AS TO MERCHANTABILITY OR
FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE IS MADE. THE EXPRESS WARRANTY SET FORTH HEREIN SHALL BE THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE
REMEDY BY THE BUYER HEREUNDER FOR ANY SYSTEM OR ACCESSORY PRODUCTS DELIVERED TO THE BUYER WHICH ARE
FOUND TO BE DEFECTIVE IN ANY MANNER, WHETHER SUCH REMEDIES BE IN CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR BY
LAW. OTHER THAN AS SET FORTH HEREIN, SELLER SHALL UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCE BE DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY LIABLE
FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE HOWSOEVER ARISING FROM SUCH MERCHANDISE, INCLUDING LOST USE, LOST PRODUCT, LOST
REVENUE, LOST PROFITS, COST OF CAPITAL, OR SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES. If during the warranty
period, the System or an Accessory Product fails to meet the Specifications, Buyer shall notify in writing of the specific nature of the failure and
all-pertinent observations related to the failure. Seller does not represent or warrant that Systems or Accessory Products sold by it complies
with OSHA or any like state, local, or national law or regulation, and the cost of modification and responsibility for such compliance is imposed
upon Buyer. Equipment must be used in a non-condensing, low-humidity, dry environment, unless explicitly exempted by MFT in writing. THE
TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY OF SELLER TO BUYER FOR ANY CLAIM OF ANY KIND, FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE WHATSOEVER
ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH OR RESULTING FROM THE SALE OR SERVICING OF THE PRODUCTS HEREIN, SHALL NOT
EXCEED THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE SYSTEM OR ACCESSORY PRODUCT. BUYER AGREES TO INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND
HOLD HARMLESS SELLER FROM ALL CLAIMS ARISING IN WHOLE OR IN PART ON ACCOUNT OF IMPROPER USE, ABUSE, MISUSE,
USE NOT IN ACCORDANCE WITH SELLER’S RECOMMENDATIONS SET FORTH IN THE OPERATION, MAINTENANCE AND SYSTEM
MANUALS SUPPLIED BY SELLER, OR BUYER’S FAILURE TO PERFORM UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. Warranty coverage excludes cost
of delivery to and from Seller’s Minnesota facility. All units that the customer wishes to have repaired under warranty shall be accompanied
by a MFT issued Returned Material Authorization (RMA) and must be sent to Multifeeder at Buyer’s expense. A service fee of $500.00 will be
charged for products sent to Seller for warranty repair, which are found to comply with the Specifications. Seller reserves the right to suspend
any and all warranties if the Buyer has a delinquent account. The System and Accessory Products are sensitive. To qualify for the warranty
set forth in this Agreement, the System and Accessory Products warranted must be repaired by knowledgeable and specially trained MFT
personnel only. Accordingly, warranty coverage will be void in its entirety upon any sign or evidence of (a) opening the System or field service
conducted by individuals other than Seller’s authorized personnel, (b) tampering or any kind of misuse of the System including Buyer’s use
of belts, Stripper Wheels or other parts not supplied by Seller, or (c) abuse of the System or Accessory Products. Non-warranty work will be
completed according to Seller’s standard rates and charges in effect at the time.
