STATEMENT OF LIMITED WARRANTY
FOR ACUITY BRANDS LIGHTING, INC.
LED COMMERICAL INDOOR PRODUCTS
FOR SHIPMENTS WITHIN THE UNITED STATES AND CANADA
10/01/12
Subject to the exclusions set forth below, Acuity Brands Lighting, Inc. (“Acuity”) warrants its commercial indoor light emitting diode (LED) fixtures,
including the LED arrays and the LED drivers and integral control devices (“Product(s)”) to be free from defect in material and workmanship (the
“General Warranty”) for a period of five (5) years from the date of shipment from Acuity’s facilities. The LED arrays in the Product(s) will be
considered defective in material or workmanship only if a total of 15% or more of the individual light emitting diodes in the Product(s) fail to
illuminate.
Ballasts, lamps, emergency batteries and poles are excluded from the General Warranty. Holophane® and Accupro® brand ballasts,
Acculamp® brand lamps, emergency batteries, and poles are warranted separately; and the terms of such warranties are located at
www.acuitybrands.com/CustomerResources/Terms_and_conditions.aspx. Manufacturers of ballasts, lamps, emergency batteries and poles
incorporated into the Product(s) are solely responsible for any costs or expenses related to any claims, repairs, or replacements associated with
any such component(s). Assistance with warranty claims for any such component(s), and/or copies of each applicable manufacturer’s warranty,
may be obtained from an authorized Acuity post-sales or customer service representative.
This Statement of Limited Warranty (“Warranty”) applies only when the Product(s) are installed in applications in which ambient temperatures
are within the range of specified operating temperatures and are operated within the electrical values shown on the LED driver Label. Acuity will
not be responsible under this Warranty for any failure of the Product(s) that results from external causes such as: acts of nature; physical
damage; exposure to adverse or hazardous chemical or other substances; use of reactive cleaning agents and/or harsh chemicals to clean the
Product(s); environmental conditions; vandalism; fire; power failure, improper power supply, power surges or dips, and/or excessive switching;
induced vibration; animal or insect activity; fault or negligence of purchaser, any end user of the Product(s) and/or any third party not engaged by
Acuity; improper or unauthorized use, installation, handling, storage, alteration, maintenance or service, including failure to abide by any product
classifications or certifications, or failure to comply with any applicable standards, codes, recommendations, product specification sheets, or
instructions of Acuity; use of the Product(s) with products, processes or materials supplied by any end user or third party; or any other
occurrences beyond Acuity’s reasonable control. Acuity also will not be responsible under this Warranty for any substantial deterioration in the
Product finish that is caused by failure to clean, inspect or maintain the finish of the Product(s). If the Product(s) are used on existing
foundations, anchorages or structures, the end user is solely responsible for the structural integrity of such existing foundations, anchorages or
structures and all consequences arising from their use. Adequate records of operating history, maintenance, and/or testing must be kept by the
end user and provided to Acuity upon request to substantiate that the Product(s) have failed to comply with the terms of this Warranty. Neither
polycarbonate nor acrylic material used in the Products is warranted against yellowing, as yellowing may naturally occur over time due to normal
aging. The Product(s) are not warranted against costs that may be incurred in connection with changes or modifications to the Product(s)
required to accommodate site conditions and/or faulty building construction or design. In addition, the Product(s) are not warranted against cost
resulting from installation of a third party components, failures of third party supplied components, or failures of Acuity supplied Product(s)
caused by a third party supplied component. This Warranty only applies to the Product(s) when sold for commercial purposes and does not
apply to any consumer product(s), all of which are governed by separate limited warranty terms. For the avoidance of doubt, Acuity emergency
fixtures are not covered by this Warranty.
If the Product(s) fail to comply with the terms of this Warranty, Acuity, at its option, will repair or replace the Product(s) with the same or a
functionally equivalent Product(s) or component part(s). This Warranty excludes labor and equipment required to remove and/or reinstall original
or replacement parts. This Warranty extends only to the Product(s) as delivered to, and is for the sole and exclusive benefit of, the original end
user of the Product(s) at the original location. This Warranty may not be transferred or assigned by the original end user. The repair or
replacement of any Product(s) or component part within the Product(s) is the sole and exclusive remedy for failure of the Product(s) to comply
with the terms of this Warranty and does not extend the Warranty period. Warranty claims regarding the Product(s) must be submitted in writing
within (30) days of discovery of the defect or failure to an authorized Acuity post-sales or customer service representative. Product(s) or
component part(s) may be required to be returned for inspection and verification of non-conformance by Acuity, but no Product(s) or component
part(s) will be accepted for inspection, verification or return unless accompanied by a “return authorization number” which can be obtained only
from an authorized Acuity post-sales or customer service representative. Acuity is not responsible for any costs and expenses incurred in
connection with shipment of Product(s) to Acuity, but Acuity shall bear all cost and expense incurred in connection with shipment of replacement
Product(s) to the customer.
THE FOREGOING WARRANTY TERMS ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, AND ACUITY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS
ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, RELATING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY TO THE PRODUCT(S), WHETHER ORAL,
WRITTEN, OR ARISING BY COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE, INCLUDING ,WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. NO AGENT, DISTRIBUTOR OR OTHER SUPPLIER OF ACUITY PRODUCTS
HAS THE AUTHORITY TO MODIFY OR AMEND THIS WARRANTY WITHOUT EXPRESS WRITTEN AUTHORIZATION FROM ACUITY.
The total liability of Acuity on any and all claims of any kind, whether in contract, warranty, tort (including negligence), strict liability or otherwise,
arising out of or in connection with, or resulting from, Acuity’s performance or breach of this Warranty, or from Acuity’s sale, delivery, resale,
repair, or replacement of any Product(s) or the furnishing of any services, shall in no event exceed the purchase price allocable to the Product(s)
that give rise to the claim, and any and all such liability shall terminate upon the expiration of the warranty period specified above.
