Hewlett-Packard limited warranty statement

A. Extent of limited warranty

1. Hewlett-Packard (HP) warrants to the end-user customer that the HP products specified above will be free from defects

in materials and workmanship for the duration specified above, which duration begins on the date of purchase by the
customer.

2. For software products, HP’s limited warranty applies only to a failure to execute programming instructions. HP does not

warrant that the operation of any product will be interrupted or error free.

3. HP's limited warranty covers only those defects that arise as a result of normal use of the product, and does not cover

any other problems, including those that arise as a result of:

a. Improper maintenance or modification;

b. Software, media, parts, or supplies not provided or supported by HP;

c. Operation outside the product's specifications;

d. Unauthorized modification or misuse.

4. For HP printer products, the use of a non-HP cartridge or a refilled cartridge does not affect either the warranty to the

customer or any HP support contract with the customer. However, if printer failure or damage is attributable to the use of
a non-HP or refilled cartridge or an expired ink cartridge, HP will charge its standard time and materials charges to
service the printer for the particular failure or damage.

5. If HP receives, during the applicable warranty period, notice of a defect in any product which is covered by HP's

warranty, HP shall either repair or replace the product, at HP's option.

6. If HP is unable to repair or replace, as applicable, a defective product which is covered by HP's warranty, HP shall,

within a reasonable time after being notified of the defect, refund the purchase price for the product.

7. HP shall have no obligation to repair, replace, or refund until the customer returns the defective product to HP.

8. Any replacement product may be either new or like-new, provided that it has functionality at least equal to that of the

product being replaced.

9. HP products may contain remanufactured parts, components, or materials equivalent to new in performance.

10. HP's Limited Warranty Statement is valid in any country where the covered HP product is distributed by HP. Contracts

for additional warranty services, such as on-site service, may be available from any authorized HP service facility in
countries where the product is distributed by HP or by an authorized importer.

B. Limitations of warranty

TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LOCAL LAW, NEITHER HP NOR ITS THIRD PARTY SUPPLIERS MAKES ANY
OTHER WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR
CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, SATISFACTORY QUALITY, AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

C. Limitations of liability

1. To the extent allowed by local law, the remedies provided in this Warranty Statement are the customer's sole and

exclusive remedies.

2. TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LOCAL LAW, EXCEPT FOR THE OBLIGATIONS SPECIFICALLY SET FORTH IN

THIS WARRANTY STATEMENT, IN NO EVENT SHALL HP OR ITS THIRD PARTY SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR
DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, WHETHER BASED ON
CONTRACT, TORT, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY AND WHETHER ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
SUCH DAMAGES.

D. Local law

1. This Warranty Statement gives the customer specific legal rights. The customer may also have other rights which vary

from state to state in the United States, from province to province in Canada, and from country to country elsewhere in
the world.

2. To the extent that this Warranty Statement is inconsistent with local law, this Warranty Statement shall be deemed

modified to be consistent with such local law. Under such local law, certain disclaimers and limitations of this Warranty
Statement may not apply to the customer. For example, some states in the United States, as well as some governments
outside the United States (including provinces in Canada), may:

a. Preclude the disclaimers and limitations in this Warranty Statement from limiting the statutory rights of a consumer

(e.g., the United Kingdom);

b. Otherwise restrict the ability of a manufacturer to enforce such disclaimers or limitations; or

c. Grant the customer additional warranty rights, specify the duration of implied warranties which the manufacturer

cannot disclaim, or allow limitations on the duration of implied warranties.

3. THE TERMS IN THIS WARRANTY STATEMENT, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT LAWFULLY PERMITTED, DO NOT

EXCLUDE, RESTRICT, OR MODIFY, AND ARE IN ADDITION TO, THE MANDATORY STATUTORY RIGHTS
APPLICABLE TO THE SALE OF THE HP PRODUCTS TO SUCH CUSTOMERS.
