Effective Date: April 1, 2026

Archer Power Solutions, Inc. (APS or Manufacturer) expressly warrants to the original purchaser that, subject to the registration requirements set forth below, for a period of one (1) year from the date of sale the Kingfisher Product will be reasonably free of defects in materials and workmanship and that when properly handled, will conform, within accepted tolerance, to applicable manufacturing specifications. This Limited Product Warranty (Limited Warranty) only applies to APS's Products which are used, stored, handled, and installed as set forth in APS’ Installation and Operations Manual.

Warranty Eligibility; Proof of Purchase; Warranty Term

Definitions.

"Date of Purchase" means the calendar date on the Purchaser's sales receipt, invoice, or other commercially reasonable evidence of purchase from an authorized seller;

“Installation and Operations Manual” means the specific manual or documentation regarding the installation, use, and maintenance of the Product provided by APS and accompanying the Product at the time of original purchase;

"Product" means the covered product sold by APS to the original purchaser;

"Purchaser" means the original end-user purchaser of the Product;

"Proof of Purchase" means a legible copy (paper or electronic) of a dated sales receipt, invoice, or equivalent document that reasonably evidences i) the Product (including model and serial number, if available), (ii) the purchase price or other identifying transaction information, and (iii) the Date of Purchase;

"Warranty Claim" means a request by the Purchaser for warranty service, repair, replacement, or other remedy available under this Limited Warranty.

Proof of Purchase as Condition Precedent to Warranty Performance: As a condition precedent to APS's performance of any obligation under this Limited Warranty in connection with a Warranty Claim, the Purchaser shall submit Proof of Purchase to APS at the time the Warranty Claim is initiated (or within a reasonable time thereafter as requested by APS). APS may reasonably request additional information limited to that necessary to (i) verify the Product is within the applicable warranty period, (ii) confirm the Product's identity (including model and serial number, if applicable), and (iii) administer the Warranty Claim.

Timing and Format of Submission: Proof of Purchase may be submitted in paper or electronic form through APS's then-current warranty claim intake process, and APS shall treat an electronic copy of Proof of Purchase as sufficient if legible and complete. If the Purchaser cannot provide a receipt or invoice due to loss or destruction, APS may, in its reasonable discretion, accept alternative commercially reasonable evidence of the Date of Purchase; however, APS shall have no obligation to provide warranty performance unless and until APS receives Proof of Purchase reasonably acceptable to APS.

Warranty Commencement. The warranty period for the Product begins on the Date of Purchase.

Proof of Purchase. As a condition precedent to obtaining any remedy under this Limited Warranty, the Purchaser has the sole burden of proving the actual date of purchase of the Product. The Purchaser must provide a valid proof of purchase that clearly identifies the Product, the price paid, and the date of sale. If the Purchaser is unable to provide such proof to the satisfaction of APS, the warranty period will be deemed to have commenced on the date the Product was originally shipped from APS.

Warranty Coverage Duration and Scope

Year One Coverage: For the first twelve (12) months from the date of sale, APS will, at its option, repair or replace the Product without charge, or refund the cost of the Product, if the Product fails or does not perform as warranted solely due to a manufacturing defect, subject to the exclusions set forth in this Limited Warranty. Repair or replacement during the first year shall include reasonable labor charges necessary to repair or replace the defective product. All warranty service, including all repair parts and all labor, shall be performed only at the Manufacturer's facility.

Kingfisher Preferred Installer Program (KPIP) Extended Coverage: Products installed through APS-registered KPIP technicians are eligible for an additional one (1) year of full warranty coverage (labor and parts) beyond the standard one-year warranty period. KPIP extended coverage requires: (i) proof of installation by a registered KPIP technician; and (ii) compliance with all APS installation requirements and documentation. KPIP eligibility and registration status may be verified through the APS website at https://archerpowersolutions.com/.  During this extended period, APS will cover reasonable labor for the removal and reinstallation of the Product, limited to a maximum of two (2) hours and not to exceed a total of $300.00. All labor reimbursements shall be paid solely to the KPIP technician; no reimbursements will be issued directly to the Customer.

Warranty Period Limitations: Any repaired or replaced product shall remain subject to the original warranty period from the date of the original purchase from APS, and any repair or replacement shall not extend the original warranty period in any manner or start a new warranty period. During all warranty periods, APS's obligation as to repair or replacement shall be limited to repair or replacement with the models of the Product that are available at the time of the repair or replacement.
