RPM PLASTIC ROOFING LINKS

50 Year Limited Material Warranty
Valid for the United States and Canada

INTRODUCTION

Subject to the terms, conditions and limitations stated herein, RPM Roofing, a division of RPM Technologies, Inc. a Delaware corporation (“RPM”) warrants to the original building owner of record upon whose building the RPM Products (herein defined) are placed (“Owner”) that RPM Shake, RPM Slate and RPM Mission roofing tiles (“Roofing Products”) are free from manufacturing defects at the time of sale.

RPM further warrants that its Roofing Products:

(1) will not prematurely deteriorate because of weathering and thereby cause leaks for a period of fifty (50) years from the date of application; and

(2) will not blow off or otherwise become damaged by winds less than 90 mph (confirmed by the National Weather Service) within the first ten (10) years after the date of installation. RPM shall have no liability under this Limited Wind Warranty if the Roofing Products have been exposed at any time to winds in excess of 90 mph. Roofing Products will be conclusively deemed to have been exposed to winds in excess of 90 mph if the National Weather Service or other reputable weather agency records wind in excess of 90 mph in the county where the Roofing Products are installed.

This Limited Material Warranty does not apply to materials not sold by RPM, nor does it cover any labor costs or any other elements of any construction projects associated with the installation of our Roofing Products, unless specifically stated to the contrary herein. The useful life of a given Roofing Product may be affected by many factors, including: the weather conditions to which it is exposed, the quality of its installation, the type and quality of the construction, including the roof decking and ventilation, and other factors over which RPM has no control.

This Limited Material Warranty describes the remedy in the event the Products are found to have defects in material or manufacturing workmanship which cause leaks before the expiration of the stated warranty period.

TERMS, CONDITIONS AND LIMITATIONS

1. The registration certificate must be completed, signed by the installing contractor and returned to RPM within thirty (30) days after the completion of the installation;

2. To request performance of any obligation of RPM asserted herein, the building owner must, within thirty (30) days from the date Owner discovers or by reasonable inspection should have discovered a problem for which RPM may be responsible, send a written notification of the alleged defect with a copy of this warranty and proof of purchase of the Products to: RPM Roofing, 9981 West 190th St., Suite C, Mokena, Illinois, 60448.

3. RPM shall review the matter promptly, and within a reasonable amount of time shall provide an initial response. RPM may ask for samples of the Products and/or photographs showing the extent of the problem. Owner is responsible for providing these at Owner's expense. Any claim shall be denied for Roofing Products that have been replaced prior to RPM's receipt of written notice and, at RPM's discretion, an onsite inspection. If RPM's investigation reveals manufacturing defects covered by this Limited Material Warranty, RPM will provide, within a reasonable period of time, a settlement in accordance with the conditions of this document.

4. This Limited Material Warranty is the sole and exclusive remedy provided to Owner with regard to the Roofing Products. To the extent any Roofing Products actually contain defects in material or manufacturing workmanship which affects their performance, RPM will compensate Owner by either:

(a) paying the reasonable replacement cost of the affected Roofing Products, prorated as set forth below; or

(b) providing free replacement of the affected Roofing Products, based on the proration factor set forth below; or

The decision on which remedy is used shall be at the sole discretion of RPM. Not withstanding anything herein to the contrary, RPM shall compensate Owner or any subsequent Owner only once during the term hereof as provided in Subsections (a), (b) and (c) above.

5. In the unlikely event that premature deterioration of the Products during the first ten (10) years affects Owner's entire roof, and RPM determines that the cause of the problem is in fact due to manufacturing defects for which RPM is solely responsible, RPM will provide Owner with 100% of replacement materials and pay the reasonable cost of labor to recover the entire roof.

6. After ten (10) years from the date of application of the Roofing Products, however, if RPM chooses to pay the reasonable replacement cost of the affected Roofing Products, the amount RPM will pay will be reduced by the amount of usage Owner has received from the affected Products. Thus, RPM will pay a percentage of the reasonable replacement cost of the affected Roofing Products. This percentage will be determined by dividing the number of months remaining in the warranty period by 600 (the number of months in the original warranty period). The resulting percentage will be multiplied times the reasonable replacement costs for the affected shingles. Reasonable replacement costs relate to originally supplied materials covered by this Limited Material Warranty and do not include, among other costs, costs of tear-off, dump fees, flashing, metal work, underlayment, related work or related materials or labor costs of any kind.

7. This Limited Material Warranty shall not be applicable for, and RPM will NOT compensate Owner, if upon inspection, RPM determines that damage to the Roofing Products or roof has resulted from anything other than an inherent manufacturing defect in the Roofing Products. Such other causes include, but are not limited to:

(a) improper installation of the Roofing Products or application not in strict accordance with RPM's Installation Instructions;

(b) improper storage or handling of the Roofing Products;

(d) a product not furnished by RPM is used and fails, causing premature deterioration of the RPM Roofing Products;

(e) inadequate attic ventilation or application of the Roofing Products directly to insulation or to an insulated deck. (Ventilation must meet at least FHA Minimum Property Standards.);

(f) Settlement, movement or defects in the building, walls, foundation or the roof base over which the Roofing Product was applied;

(g) deterioration or failure of building components, over which RPM has no control, occurs or causes damage. Such components include, but are not limited to, the roof deck, metal roof components, walls, mortar, machinery, HVAC units or other such items;

(h) damage resulting from natural disasters, including but not limited to, earthquakes, hurricanes, or tornadoes;

(i) acts of Nature, such as fire, hail, lightning, ice damming, or winds above 90 mph (confirmed by the National Weather Service);

(j) being subject at the time of installation to temperatures lower than 40 degrees Fahrenheit; or

(k) the Products are damaged by acts beyond RPM's control, including, but not limited to, negligence, accidents or misuse, as well as vandalism, civil disobedience, acts of terrorism or acts of war.

8. RPM warrants against blow-offs, but such warranty:

(a) applies only to damage from winds up to 90 mph (confirmed by the National Weather Service). In no event shall RPM be liable for any loss or damage due to winds in excess of the specified 90 mph wind velocity;

(b) is conditioned upon application of the Products in strict accordance with RPM's Installation Instructions, including but not limited to, the use of approved fasteners and application at recommended exposures based on roof pitch; and

(c) shall apply only during the first ten (10) years after installation, and is limited to RPM's obligation to pay the reasonable cost of replacement shingles that have blown off and does not cover any labor or other costs.

9. RPM shall have no obligation under this Limited Material Warranty whatsoever unless all bills and charges for the Roofing Products have been paid in full.

10. This Limited Material Warranty may not be transferred or assigned, directly or indirectly, except for one transfer as follows:

(a) The Second Owner must notify RPM in writing within thirty (30) days after a property transfer from Owner has occurred for any coverage by this Limited Material Warranty to be transferred. To transfer this warranty to a Second Owner, the original Owner must send by certified mail the Registration of Warranty Transfer Form filled out completely which is part of this Limited Warranty requesting the transfer, along with a photocopy of this Limited Material Warranty. RPM will forward a new Limited Material Warranty to the Second Owner which establishes the amount of time already used under the previous Limited Material Warranty, and stipulates the remaining time available under the Limited Material Warranty.

(b) If the transfer takes place within the first ten years after the original application of the Roofing Products, the Second Owner shall be entitled to all benefits contained in this Limited Material Warranty.

(c) If the transfer takes place more than ten years after the original application of the Roofing Products, the length of this Limited Material Warranty shall be reduced to the two-year period after the ownership changes. During this two-year period, RPM's reimbursement to the Second Owner will be prorated as set forth above in Section 5, depending on the remaining time available under this Limited Material Warranty.

11. RPM's failure at any time to enforce any of these terms or conditions stated herein shall not be construed to be a waiver of such terms or conditions.

12. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, to the extent that any provision of this Limited Material Warranty is deemed invalid under any applicable law, then with regard to such instances, such provision(s) shall be of no effect, or, if practicable, shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to comply with such law and the remaining portions of this Limited Material Warranty shall not be affected but shall continue in full force and effect.
