*LIMITED LIFETIME GUARANTEE
Behr Process Corporation guarantees that this product will provide a waterproof finish and hide

does not cover water intrusion due to structural defects or caulk failure. Color fading and chalking
will occur naturally over time. If this product fails to perform as specified, Behr Process Corporation
will, at its option and upon proof-of-purchase, either furnish an equivalent amount of new paint to
you, or refund the purchase price of this product. This guarantee excludes (1) labor and costs
of labor for the application or removal of any paint and (2) any incidental or consequential
damages, whether based upon breach of express or implied warranty, negligence, strict

or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. This guarantee
gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights, which vary from state to state.
