Article IV Defects
4.1 | The Seller shall be obliged to deliver the Solar Panels in the amount, quality and form compliant with this Agreement and its Appendix No. 1.

4.5 | Further, the Parties hereby agree the following procedures with respect to any Defects of Solar Panels (however, if there are any discrepancies between this Art. 4.5 and the Jinko Warranty in Appendix No. 3, then the terms of this agreement shall prevail). |
(i) | Solar Panels prior to installation, 0-120 days |
In case of technical problems with Solar Panel(s) prior to installation within one hundred twenty days from the relevant date of delivery of Solar Panels to the Purchaser, the Seller will replace the faulty Solar Panels at its own costs, within sixty days of the Purchaser’s written notification to the Seller under Art. 4.3.
