period of ONE (1) year from the date of retail purchase by the original end-user purchaser and purchased
from a recognized “authorized dealer” (“Warranty Period”). Products purchased from any unauthorized
source, such as unauthorized e-Bay resellers, will not qualify for free warranty service/support and may
require the end-user to pre-pay fees associated with, but not limited to the support, repair, replacement and
shipping of the product to and from the service center. If a hardware defect arises and a valid claim is
received by Globalsat/ USGlobalsat within the Warranty Period, at its option and to the extent permitted by
law, Globalsat/ USGlobalsat will either (1) repair the product at no charge, using new parts or parts
equivalent to new in performance and reliability, (2) exchange the product with a product that is new or
equivalent to new in performance and reliability and is at least functionally equivalent to the original product
or, (3) refund the purchase price of the product. Globalsat/ USGlobalsat may request that you replace
defective parts with new or refurbished user-installable parts that Globalsat/ USGlobalsat provides in
fulfillment of its warranty obligation. A replacement product or part, including a user-installable part that has
been installed in accordance with instructions provided by Globalsat/ USGlobalsat, assumes the remaining
warranty of the original product or ninety (90) days from the date of replacement or repair, whichever
provides longer coverage for you. When a product or part is exchanged, any replacement item becomes
your property and the replaced items becomes Globalsat/ USGlobalsat’s property. Parts provide by
Globalsat/ USGlobalsat in fulfillment of its warranty obligation must be used in products for which warranty
service is claimed. When a refund is given, the product for which the refund is provided must be returned to
Globalsat/ USGlobalsat and becomes Globalsat/ USGlobalsat’s property.
If a defect arises and a valid claim is received by Globalsat/ USGlobalsat after the first one hundred and
eighty (180) days of Warranty period, a shipping and handling charge may apply to any repair or exchange
of the product undertaken by Globalsat/ USGlobalsat.
