Product warranties and notices
Each IBM Machine is manufactured from new parts, or new and used parts. In some
cases, the Machine may not be new and may have been previously installed.
Regardless of the Machine's production status, IBM's appropriate warranty terms
apply.
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),
IBM is liable for no more than
1. damages for bodily injury (including death) and damage to real property and
tangible personal property; and
2. the amount of any other actual direct damages, up to the greater of U.S. $100,000
(or equivalent in local currency) or the charges (if recurring, 12 months' charges
apply) for the Machine that is the subject of the claim.
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
FOLLOWING: 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 CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOST
PROFITS OR SAVINGS), EVEN IF IBM, ITS SUPPLIERS OR YOUR
RESELLER IS INFORMED OF THEIR POSSIBILITY. SOME
JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION
OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE
LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
