Subject to the terms, conditions and limitations stated herein, SYNBOARD AMERICA ("SYNBOARD AMERICA") warrants to the structure owner that SYNBOARD ("Product") will be free from manufacturing defects which cause the Product to rot, delaminate or excessively swell (the "Covered Defects") during the applicable Warranty Period (the "Limited Warranty"). This Limited Warranty shall be effective for a period of Twenty Five (25) years from the date of original purchase (the "Warranty Period").

Any claim made under this Limited Warranty must be in writing to SYNBOARD AMERICA and made within Ninety (90) days after a Covered Defect is discovered (or should have been discovered) and before any alterations are made and expiration of the Warranty Period. SYNBOARD AMERICA must be given a Thirty (30) day opportunity to inspect the Product claimed to have a Covered Defect. If after inspection, SYNBOARD AMERICA determines that such Product has a Covered Defect, then SYNBOARD AMERICA will, in its sole discretion, either: (1) repair or replace the Product affected by a Covered Defect; or (2) refund to the owner the reasonable cost to repair or replace the Product affected by a Covered Defect, including material and labor, provided in no event shall such cost exceed twice the Purchaser’s original purchase price of such Product so affected (the "Remedy"). Claims made under this Limited Warranty must be made to:
