In addition to the Hardware Products Warranty and Software Products Warranty identified above, 3Com
warrants that all Heritage 3Com products sold or licensed to Customer on and after January 1, 1998 that
are date sensitive will continue performing properly with regard to such date data on and after January 1,
2000, provided that all other products used by Customer in connection or combination with the 3Com
products, including hardware, software, and firmware, accurately exchange date data with the 3Com
products, with the exception of those products identified at 3Com’s Web site,
http://www.3com.com/products/yr2000.html, as not meeting this standard. A product is considered a

its merger with US Robotics Corporation. This Year 2000 limited warranty does not apply to Heritage US
Robotics Corporation products. If it appears that any such product does not perform properly with regard
to such date data on and after January 1, 2000, and Customer notifies 3Com before the later of April 1,
