Subject to the exclusions contained below, Canadian Solar Inc. (“Canadian Solar”) warrants to the original buyer

(the “Buyer”) that the module shall be free from defects in materials and workmanship that have an effect on

Solar’s standard product documentation.

Canadian Solar warrants that the module will maintain its mechanical integrity and stability in accordance with the

approved operation methods described in Canadian Solar’s installation manual and its annexes; the glass of the

module will maintain its integrity provided there are no indications of localized impacts or external forces; and the

cable and connector plug of the module will remain safe and operational provided the module is professionally

installed. Any damage caused by abrasion, improper installation, artificial damage or animals are excluded from

this warranty.

Claims under this warranty will only be accepted if the Buyer can provide proof that the malfunctioning or non-

conformity of the module results exclusively from defects in materials and/or workmanship under normal

application, installation, use and service conditions specified in Canadian Solar’s standard product documentation.

Any color change of the module or any other changes in module appearance do not represent defects, insofar as

the change in appearance does not stem from defects in material and/or workmanship, and does not cause
