If IBM is unable to do either, you may return the Machine to your place of purchase

and your money will be refunded.

IBM or your reseller will also manage and install selected engineering changes that

apply to the Machine.

Exchange of a Machine or Part

When the 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.

Your Additional Responsibilities

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

features, 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 service request procedures that IBM or your reseller provides;

b.

backup or secure all programs, data, and funds contained in the Machine;

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

permit IBM to fulfill its obligations; and

d.

inform IBM or your reseller of changes in the Machine’s location.

4.

(a) ensure all information about identified or identifiable individuals (Personal

Data) is deleted from the Machine (to the extent technically possible), (b) allow

IBM, your reseller or an IBM supplier to process on your behalf any remaining

Personal Data as IBM or your reseller considers necessary to fulfill its obligations

under this Statement of Limited Warranty (which may include shipping the

Machine for such processing to other IBM service locations around the world), and

(c) ensure that such processing complies with any laws applicable to such Personal

Data.

Limitation of Liability

IBM is responsible for loss of, or damage to, your Machine only while it is 1) in

IBM’s possession or 2) in transit in those cases where IBM is responsible for the

transportation charges.
