Exhibit A -Warranty

1.
WARRANTY
1.Express Limited Warranty.  As the sole and exclusive warranty and Nutanix’s sole and exclusive remedy with respect to a breach by Flextronics of such warranty, the following shall apply.
(a)Flextronics warrants that the Products shall have been manufactured in accordance with the applicable Specifications and shall be free from defects in workmanship for a period of [***] from the date of shipment.  As used herein, “Specifications” means the written manufacturing/assembly specifications and instructions for the Products provided by Nutanix to Flextronics.
(b)The above warranty does not apply to, and Flextronics makes no representations or warranties whatsoever with respect to any of: (i) Components (excluding “Production Materials” defined below) to the extent expressly set forth in the MOU or services provided by vendors on the Nutanix approved vendor list; (ii) defects resulting from adherence to the Specifications, or any instructions provided by or on behalf of Nutanix; (iii) the design of the Products; (iv) Product that has been abused, damaged, altered or misused or mishandled (including improper storage or installation or improper handling in accordance with static sensitive electronic device handling requirements) by any person or entity after title passes to Nutanix; (v) first articles, prototypes, pre-production units, test units or other similar units; (vi) defects resulting from tooling, designs or instructions produced or supplied by Nutanix, including any defective test equipment or test software provided by Nutanix; or (vii) the compliance of Components (excluding Production Materials) or Products with any safety or Environmental Regulations or other laws. “Production Materials” means the glue, solder and other materials used to integrate the Components into the Products.
(c)Upon any failure of a Product to comply with this express limited warranty, Flextronics’s sole obligation, and Nutanix’s sole remedy, is for Flextronics, at Flextronics’s option, to promptly repair or replace such unit and return it to Nutanix, freight prepaid.  In the event that such Product cannot be repaired or replaced using commercially reasonable efforts, Flextronics shall credit the price paid by the Nutanix to Flextronics for such unit. 
(d)Flextronics warrants environmental compliance of all Production Materials used to create the Products. Flextronics does not warrant Components, but will pass through environmental warranties from its suppliers to the degree allowed in its supplier agreements. In addition, Flextronics will review certificates of conformity from vendors of Components, excluding Customer Controlled Components and Customer Consigned Components; provided that Flextronics’s sole obligation with respect to such Components is to review the applicable certificate of conformity. Flextronics will maintain appropriate records to allow traceability of all Products and/or Components. Flextronics will undertake to immediately inform Nutanix of any material changes that come to its attention affecting environmental compliance. For the purpose of this MOU, “Customer Controlled Components” means Components provided to Flextronics by Nutanix or by vendors with whom Nutanix has a direct commercial relationship with in connection to that Component. In addition, “Customer Consigned Components” means Components that are provided to Flextronics by Nutanix and which Flextronics stores on behalf of Nutanix.
(e)Epidemic Failure. Notwithstanding the above, should failures of the Product be the result of an Epidemic Failure, ,the parties shall mutually agree whether Flextronics shall either repair or replace Products subject to such Epidemic Failure. In addition, Flextronics shall credit Nutanix for reasonable direct costs that are incurred by Nutanix as a result of an Epidemic Failure. Such remedies for Epidemic Failure shall be in addition to any other remedies Nutanix may have under this MOU. An “Epidemic Failure” is defined as failure of more than [***] of the Products that occur [***] and where there is a single root cause of the failure which is a result of a breach of Flextronics’s warranty under Section 1.1 of this Exhibit A.

2.No Representations or Other Warranties. FLEXTRONICS MAKES NO OTHER REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES ON THE PERFORMANCE OF THE SERVICES, OR THE PRODUCTS, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR IN ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS MOU OR COMMUNICATION WITH NUTANIX, AND FLEXTRONICS SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF MERCHANTABILITY, TITLE OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGEMENT.
