terms and conditions are the exclusive terms governing the sales transaction between
Customer and Unbound Solar. Service includes Plan sets, Utility Interconnection Application,
Diagrams, Custom Packaging, Engineering Review, System Design, General Support and
Training.

Any attempt to alter, supplement, modify or amend these terms and conditions by the

reason, Unbound reserves the right to substitute a product of equivalent quality.
All standard systems and equipment meet accepted regulatory compliance standards at time
of purchase. Local and national electrical codes are subject to frequent changes and state
mandated code adoptions may happen at any time. Extended time between date of purchase
and starting the permitting or utility interconnection process may cause code compliancy
issue, which could result in the permit application or utility interconnection approval being
denied. It is the responsibility of the “installer” to ensure the project schedule does not extend
beyond a reasonable length of time or overlap new code adoptions. Unbound Solar is not
responsible for permit or utility interconnection issues or denials that are a result of customer
decisions or inaction.

Unbound Solar is not responsible for errors in typography and/or photography. All parts come

advanced technical support. Customer pays return shipping on all product returns. Unbound
Solar reserves the right to refuse service to anyone.

installation, as required by local jurisdictions, which vary greatly. Unbound Solar will not be
responsible for these costs under any circumstances. If a permit is not achievable, Unbound
Solar will accept a return shipment and refund the cost of the equipment, minus shipping,
restocking, or other applicable fees.

Shipping Policy
Unbound Solar and Unbound Solar vendors carefully inspect all shipments. Customers
must inspect their shipments upon delivery, prior to signing the release, and document
any discrepancies or damage to the shipment on the freight carrier delivery note.
Customers who will not be signing for their order when it is delivered are responsible to
see that the person signing has read and understands Unbound Solar’s Terms and
Conditions. Unbound Solar is not responsible for delays due to carrier exceptions.

Important
You or your receiving agent MUST check your order upon receipt for accuracy and possible
concealed damage and notify Unbound of any discrepancies within 24 hours.
Undiscovered damage claims not noted on the delivery receipt cannot be made with a
carrier or Unbound Solar. NO EXCEPTIONS! When shipped, Unbound Solar ensures proper
packaging and takes pictures of each outbound shipment. Protect your investment! It is
your responsibility to check your shipment. Your signature on a shipping receipt is a legal
release of claim for damage unless noted within 24 hours of receipt.

An independent shipping contractor such as UPS, FedEx or a commercial trucking
company will deliver the order. When the shipment arrives, the driver will ask you to sign
for the delivery. This is a legal document stating that the package is being delivered in
good condition without damage and that the customer is waiving any additional claim from
the shipper. Before signing, inspect the package(s) closely on all six sides. Note any box
damage including scuffs, dents, tears, punctures or creases on the delivery receipt. If
there is anything unusual with the package, the customer has the right to open it to
inspect the contents. If the driver is unwilling to wait while you inspect all of the items, you
may mark on the delivery receipt “Concealed Damage Possible”.

If there is damage to the shipment, you must choose to accept the shipment with damage
noted/documented or refuse the package and contact Unbound Solar immediately.

Cancellation Policy
To cancel your order, contact Customer Support during normal business hours. Provided
your order has not yet been processed, and your payment has not been processed, no fees
will be applied. Processed orders will have a 5% cancellation fee deducted from your
refund within the first 30 days. If any portion of your order has shipped, a 15% restocking
fee will be deducted from your refund. The refund will occur within 5 business days of
receipt of the cancellation or the return of all shipped products.

Some products offered by Unbound Solar are custom built or special ordered. These items
include but are not limited to: power centers, battery enclosures, and custom racking
systems. Cancellation of these items will result in a cancellation fee, even if the item has
not shipped. The cancellation fee will vary depending on the manufacturer. Certain
products, such as Outback Power Pre-Wired Power Stations, are non-refundable, due to
the manufacturer cancellation fees. If a discount was applied to an order for a nonrefundable product, the discount amount will be deducted from the refund. For example, if your order included a free shipping discount, the shipping fees would be
deducted from the refundable amount.

Return Policy
Merchandise, except for products identified as non-refundable, may be returned within 30
days of the receipt of the product. Returns are subject to a standard restocking fee of
15%. Prior to returning items, it is necessary to obtain an RMA # (Return Merchandise
Authorization Number) for your return. Contact Customer service to request an RMA. Once
you have received your RMA # and return instructions, you are responsible for shipping,
including shipping costs, to return the merchandise to Unbound Solar. RMA numbers are
valid for 30 days from the date issued and items must be received in that timeframe.
Please reference this number in a clear location on the outside of the package and any
documents included in the shipment when returning product. The Customer shall be responsible for the return of any unused product and agrees to use only reputable carriers capable of providing proof of delivery and insurance for the value of the shipment.
Returned material must be received in new and resalable condition with the original blank
warranty cards, manuals, and all accessories. If any component of the RMA is missing or
not in new condition, Unbound Solar may reject the return or choose to impose additional
charges for replacement of any missing or damaged component(s).

A refund or credit to your account, less cost of any replacement/refurbishment cost and
restocking fees will be processes within 5 business days of RMA receipt & inspection.
A 15% restocking fee will be charged for all returns. Custom built items, including but not
limited to: Power Centers and custom-built mounting systems, are non-returnable. Built
to order items, special order items, and breakers are non-returnable. Shipping charges are
non-refundable.

(if applicable). If a technical issue occurs with your product upon receipt or installation, we
urge you to contact the manufacturer directly. The Customer shall be responsible for the
return of any defective product and agrees to use only reputable carriers capable of
