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

remove all such information from the Machine prior to its return.
Production Status
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.
