the hardware warranty, such warranty starts on the earlier of the date of Product registration on Fortinet’s Support Website or ninety (90) days from the date that the Product
was originally shipped from Fortinet’s facilities. It is the Fortinet distributor’s and reseller’s responsibility to make clear to the end user the date the product was originally
shipped from Fortinet, and it is the end user’s responsibility to understand the original ship date from the party from which the end user purchased the product. All warranty
claims must be submitted in writing to Fortinet before the expiration of the warranty term or such claims are waived in full, i.e. ninety (90) days from the earlier of registration
or the automatically started term for hardware and spare parts claims and three hundred sixty-ve (365) days from registration within three hundred sixty-ve (365) days
from shipment for software claims. Fortinet provides no warranty for any beta, donation or evaluation Products, for any spare parts not purchased directly from Fortinet by the
end-user, for any accessories, or for any stand-alone software.
Fortinet warrants that the hardware portion of the Products, including spare parts unless noted otherwise (“Hardware”) will be free from material defects in workmanship as
compared to the functional specications for the period set forth as follows and applicable to the Product type (“Hardware Warranty Period”): a three hundred sixty-ve (365)
day limited warranty for the Hardware excluding spare parts, , power supplies, and accessories (provided, solely with respect to FortiAP indoor Wi-Fi access point Hardware
appliance products and FortiSwitch Hardware appliance products other than the FortiSwitch-5000 series (for both excluding spare parts, power supplies, and accessories),
the warranty herein shall last from the start of the warranty period as discussed above until ve (5) years following the product announced end-of-life date), and, for spare
parts, power supplies, and accessories, solely a ninety (90) days limited warranty. Fortinet’s sole obligation shall be to repair or replace the defective Hardware at no charge
to the original owner. This obligation is exclusive of transport fees, labor or installation costs, and any other cost which are not directly associated to the Product. Such repair
or replacement will be rendered by Fortinet at an authorized Fortinet service facility as determined by Fortinet. The replacement Hardware need not be new or of an identical
make, model, or part; Fortinet may, in its discretion, replace the defective Hardware (or any part thereof) with any reconditioned Product that Fortinet reasonably determines
is substantially equivalent (or superior) in all material respects to the defective Hardware. The Hardware Warranty Period for the repaired or replacement Hardware shall be
for the greater of the remaining Hardware Warranty Period or ninety days from the delivery of the repaired or replacement Hardware. If Fortinet determines in its reasonable
discretion that a material defect is incapable of correction or that it is not practical to repair or replace defective Hardware, the price paid by the original purchaser for the
defective Hardware will be refunded by Fortinet upon return to Fortinet of the defective Hardware. All Hardware (or part thereof) that is replaced by Fortinet, or for which the
purchase price is refunded, shall become the property of Fortinet upon replacement or refund.
Fortinet warrants that the software portion of Hardware Products will substantially conform to Fortinet’s then current functional specications for the Software, as set forth
in the applicable documentation for a period of ninety (90) days (“Software Warranty Period”), if the Software is properly installed on approved Hardware and operated as
contemplated in its documentation. Fortinet’s sole obligation shall be to repair or replace the non-conforming Software with software that substantially conforms to Fortinet’s
functional specications. Except as otherwise agreed by Fortinet in writing, the replacement Software is provided only to the original licensee, and is subject to the terms and
conditions of the license granted by Fortinet for the Software. The Software Warranty Period shall extend for an additional ninety (90) days after any replacement software
is delivered. If Fortinet determines in its reasonable discretion that a material non-conformance is incapable of correction or that it is not practical to repair or replace the
non-conforming Software, the price paid by the original licensee for the non-conforming Software will be refunded by Fortinet; provided that the non-conforming Software
(and all copies thereof) is rst returned to Fortinet. The license granted respecting any Software for which a refund is given automatically terminates immediately upon refund.
For purpose of the above hardware and software warranties, the term “functional specications” means solely those specications authorized and published by Fortinet that
expressly state in such specications that they are the functional specications referred to in this section 6 of this Agreement, and, in the event no such specications are
provided to you with the Software or Hardware, there shall be no warranty on such Software.

License. The “Program”, below, refers to any such program or work, and a “work based on the Program” means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright
law: that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modications and/or translated into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is
included without limitation in the term “modication”.) Each licensee is addressed as “you”.
Activities other than copying, distribution and modication are not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running the Program is not restricted, and the
output from the Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Program (independent of having been made by running the Program). Whether that is
true depends on what the Program does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program’s source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on
each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any
other recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with the Program. You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option
