The “Hire Schedule” is a document the Owner will provide to the Hirer setting out information about the hire of Equipment by the Owner to the Hirer, including the Hire Charge and other conditions relating to the Equipment hired.

The “Owner” is Lime Healthcare.

6. LIMITATION OF OWNER’S LIABILITY

a) The Owner shall not be liable to the Hirer for any breach of warranty or condition as to merchantable quality other than to the extent of (in the Owner’s absolute discretion) either replacing the Equipment for the balance of the term of this agreement or refunding to the Hirer a proportion of the Hire Charge as is equivalent to that proportion of the term of the Contract unexpired as at the date the Hirer notifies the Owner.

b) The Owner shall not be liable to the Hirer or any third party for any consequential damage of any kind or bodily injury or death caused wholly or in part due to the Equipment.
