Parts Only in extraordinary circumstances at EVC's sole discretion will exchanges and loose returns of equipment shipped be considered or approved. EVC and our OEM Suppliers develop detailed product specification / documentation that the customer signs off on, before purchase orders are issued from Sutphen EVC to suppliers. This ensures that the customer gets precisely the equipment required for their use case and purpose. If a customer were to request an exchange of a vehicle once delivered, it is unlikely that another customer would – at least for some time – have the same exact specification, in order to purchase the same vehicle. In instances where the vehicle is a more standard unit, with fewer customer specific upfits, etc., then EVC may have the ability to resell said unit. However, given any vehicle under this scenario would also no longer be considered “new,” but “used,” this would adversely impact the market value. Additionally, many Incentives and Rebates offered for Fleet Electrification require the vehicle be held and used for a certain period of time. Should a customer request an exchange or drop shipped under Xxxxxxx'x direction can return, then it would be returned for credit within ninety (90) days required of the delivery date. Product must be customer or EVC (whoever directly received the Incentive) to ensure that the funds were appropriately returned in unused, saleable condition and in its original packaging. Customers must request a Return Material Authorization (RMA) which is good for thirty (30) days. Warranty return shipping is Xxxxxxx'x responsibility. All other shipping costs are customer responsibility.

How will Sourcewell participating entities in these regions be provided service for warranty repair? NoMohawk can provide 100% coverage in the lower 48 states of the US. Alaska and Hawaii are remote, Sutphen has authorized dealersas our rep in Alaska lives in Anchorage and doesn't travel to Juneau, Nome, or Prudhoe Bay every week. The same applies to parts of Hawaii and areas in Canada. Mohawk is more established in the US than in Canada. We know 90% of the Canadian population lives 100 miles from the US border, yet there are Mohawk lift installations in remote places like Cold Lake Alberta the Yukon or CFB Alert (the northerly most year-round inhabited place on earth). A service centerscall to Cold Lake Alberta or Nome Alaska doesn't happen overnight, yet for 40+ years we've handled most service issues over the phone.

However, Sutphen will assist the authorized dealer/distributor or customer to facilitate the warranty repairsother manufacturers' products may reflect on Mohawk and future lift sales. * 50 51 What are your proposed exchange and return programs and policies? Parts Lifts are not generally a returnable item. Precautions are taken in advance of shipping as every 4 post, mobile, parallelogram or large two post is fully set up and loose equipment shipped from Sutphen made operational prior to leaving the factory. Lifts are big, heavy to move and expensive to re-ship. These are the reasons every lift has detailed specs on the back page of each flyer (emailed and a hard copy is mailed when a customer inquiries). See exhibit #61 for a typical product flyer and the back page for specs and measurements. An example of great customer service (not the fault of Mohawk) is the 50,000 lb. capacity four post lifts Pinellas Transit purchased. After installation Pinellas Transit asked Mohawk to exchange 24” wide runways (which they acknowledged they ordered) for 32” wide runways. Xxxxxxxx paid freight in both directions and paid extra fees to exchange the 24 for 32” wide platform. In the lift industry large lifts are built to order. No lift industry manufacturer keeps every model of large 4 post, vertical rise, or drop shipped under Xxxxxxx'x direction can be returned for credit within ninety (90) days of the delivery date. Product must be returned parallelogram lift in unused, saleable condition and in its original packaging. Customers must request a Return Material Authorization (RMA) which is good for thirty (30) days. Warranty return shipping is Xxxxxxx'x responsibility. All other shipping costs are customer responsibility. Sutphen has a twenty five percent (25%) restocking fee and will, in addition, add cost of repackaging any returns/exchanges not in original packaging. Xxxxxxx'x return policy only applies to partsstock. This does not apply is because each lift is different. These built to order lifts require a “data sheet” (a build sheet). Exhibit #24 requires the signature of both the using agency and the Mohawk representative. The data sheet asks certain questions about the lift, the facility, the options, track lengths or widths. In 30+ years of requiring data sheets, only one time did a reseller measure the bay length incorrectly, causing the runways to be returned, welded shorter and resent to the purchase agency. One mistake in thousands of lifts is a fire apparatus. very good average * 51 52 Describe any service contract options for the items included in your proposal. While it is not included in as a line item in this response, Sutphen will offer Sourcewell members an annual aerial apparatus service contract after the purchase and delivery of a vehicle as an Open Market opportunityNone. The Company does ANSI (American National Standards Institute) requires lifts to be inspected annually. Per the ALI (Automotive Lift Institute) independent inspectors must perform these inspections. XXX feels that if lift manufacturers were to perform the annual inspections, it's akin to the fox guarding the hen house. I don't believe any ALI member inspects their own lifts as this to make certain that Sutphen apparatus remain dependable has been an ongoing discussion within ALI, and in excellent working conditionthis was a topic at a recent ALI membership meeting. The service agreement includes an annual inspection through which Sutphen technicians evaluate the condition of the apparatus.
