IBM Statement of Limited Warranty Z125-4753-

06 8/2000

Part 1 - General Terms

This Statement of Limited Warranty includes Part 1 - General Terms and Part 2 -

Country-unique Terms. The terms of Part 2 replace or modify those of Part 1. The

warranties provided by IBM in this Statement of Limited Warranty apply only to

Machines you purchase for your use, and not for resale, from IBM or your reseller.

The term “Machine” means an IBM machine, its features, conversions, upgrades, ele-

ments, or accessories, or any combination of them. The term “Machine” does not

include any software programs, whether pre-loaded with the Machine, installed subse-

quently or otherwise. Unless IBM specifies otherwise, the following warranties apply

only in the country where you acquire the Machine. Nothing in this Statement of Lim-

ited Warranty affects any statutory rights of consumers that cannot be waived or lim-

ited by contract. If you have any questions, contact IBM or your reseller.

The IBM Warranty for Machines: IBM warrants that each Machine 1) is free from

defects in materials and workmanship and 2) conforms to IBM's Official Published

Specifications (“Specifications”). The warranty period for a Machine is a specified,

fixed period commencing on its Date of Installation. The date on your sales receipt is

the Date of Installation unless IBM or your reseller informs you otherwise.

If a Machine does not function as warranted during the warranty period, and IBM or

your reseller are unable to either 1) make it do so or 2) replace it with one that is at

least functionally equivalent, you may return it to your place of purchase and your

money will be refunded.

Extent of Warranty: The warranty does not cover the repair or exchange of a

Machine resulting from misuse, accident, modification, unsuitable physical or operat-

ing environment, improper maintenance by you, or failure caused by a product for

which IBM is not responsible. The warranty is voided by removal or alteration of

Machine or parts identification labels.

THESE WARRANTIES ARE YOUR EXCLUSIVE WARRANTIES AND

REPLACE ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR

IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRAN-

TIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A

PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THESE WARRANTIES GIVE YOU SPECIFIC

LEGAL RIGHTS AND YOU MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS WHICH

VARY FROM JURISDICTION TO JURISDICTION. SOME JURISDICTIONS

DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF EXPRESS OR

IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION

MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. IN THAT EVENT, SUCH WARRANTIES ARE

LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE WARRANTY PERIOD. NO WARRAN-

TIES APPLY AFTER THAT PERIOD.

Items Not Covered by Warranty: IBM does not warrant uninterrupted or error-free

operation of a Machine. Any technical or other support provided for a Machine under

warranty, such as assistance via telephone with “how-to” questions and those regard-

ing Machine set-up and installation, will be provided WITHOUT WARRANTIES

OF ANY KIND.

Warranty Service: To obtain warranty service for a Machine, contact IBM or your

reseller. If you do not register your Machine with IBM, you may be required to

present proof of purchase.

During the warranty period, IBM or your reseller, if approved by IBM to provide war-

ranty service, provides without charge certain types of repair and exchange service to

keep Machines in, or restore them to, conformance with their Specifications. IBM or

your reseller will inform you of the available types of service for a Machine based on

its country of installation. At its discretion, IBM or your reseller will 1) either repair

or exchange the failing Machine and 2) provide the service either at your location or a

service center. IBM or your reseller will also manage and install selected engineering

changes that apply to the Machine.

Some parts of IBM Machines are designated as Customer Replaceable Units (called

“CRUs”), e.g., keyboards, memory, or hard disk drives. IBM ships CRUs to you for

replacement by you. You must return all defective CRUs to IBM within 30 days of

your receipt of the replacement CRU. You are responsible for downloading designated

Machine Code and Licensed Internal Code updates from an IBM Internet Web site or

from other electronic media, and following the instructions that IBM provides.

When warranty service involves the exchange of a Machine or part, the item IBM or

your reseller replaces becomes its property and the replacement becomes yours. You

represent that all removed items are genuine and unaltered. The replacement may not

be new, but will be in good working order and at least functionally equivalent to the

item replaced. The replacement assumes the warranty service status of the replaced

item. Many features, conversions, or upgrades involve the removal of parts and their

return to IBM. A part that replaces a removed part will assume the warranty service

status of the removed part.

Before IBM or your reseller exchanges a Machine or part, you agree to remove all fea-

tures, parts, options, alterations, and attachments not under warranty service.

You also agree to

1. ensure that the Machine is free of any legal obligations or restrictions that prevent

its exchange;

2. obtain authorization from the owner to have IBM or your reseller service a

Machine that you do not own; and

3. where applicable, before service is provided:

a. follow the problem determination, problem analysis, and service request pro-

cedures that IBM or your reseller provides;

b. secure all programs, data, and funds contained in a Machine;

c. provide IBM or your reseller with sufficient, free, and safe access to your

facilities to permit them to fulfill their obligations; and

d. inform IBM or your reseller of changes in a Machine's location.

IBM is responsible for loss of, or damage to, your Machine while it is 1) in IBM's pos-

session or 2) in transit in those cases where IBM is responsible for the transportation

charges.

Neither IBM nor your reseller is responsible for any of your confidential, proprietary

or personal information contained in a Machine which you return to IBM or your

reseller for any reason. You should remove all such information from the Machine

prior to its return.

Limitation of Liability: Circumstances may arise where, because of a default on

IBM's part or other liability, you are entitled to recover damages from IBM. In each

such instance, regardless of the basis on which you are entitled to claim damages from

IBM (including fundamental breach, negligence, misrepresentation, or other contract

or tort claim), except for any liability that cannot be waived or limited by applicable

laws, IBM is liable for no more than

1. damages for bodily injury (including death) and damage to real property and tan-

gible personal property; and

2. the amount of any other actual direct damages, up to the charges (if recurring, 12

months' charges apply) for the Machine that is subject of the claim. For purposes

of this item, the term “Machine” includes Machine Code and Licensed Internal

Code.

This limit also applies to IBM's suppliers and your reseller. It is the maximum for

which IBM, its suppliers, and your reseller are collectively responsible.

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES IS IBM LIABLE FOR ANY OF THE FOL-

LOWING: 1) THIRD-PARTY CLAIMS AGAINST YOU FOR DAMAGES

(OTHER THAN THOSE UNDER THE FIRST ITEM LISTED ABOVE); 2)

LOSS OF, OR DAMAGE TO, YOUR RECORDS OR DATA; OR 3) SPECIAL,

INCIDENTAL, OR INDIRECT DAMAGES OR FOR ANY ECONOMIC CON-

SEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS OR LOST SAVINGS, EVEN IF

IBM, ITS SUPPLIERS OR YOUR RESELLER IS INFORMED OF THEIR

POSSIBILITY. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLU-

SION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAM-

AGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY

TO YOU.
