PANASONIC COMPUTER AND PERIPHERALS LIMITED WARRANTY

Coverage

 – Panasonic Canada Inc. (“PCI”) warrants to you, the first end user customer, this computer product (excluding software media), when

purchased from PCI or from a PCI authorized reseller, to be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use, subject to the terms
set forth below, during the period of warranty coverage specified.

Remedy

 – In the event of a warranty claim, contact PCI’s representatives within the applicable warranty period, identifying the nature of the defect

claimed, at 1-800-668-8386 between 9:00 A.M. and 5:00 P.M., Eastern Time Zone, Mon. – Fri. (excluding holidays) for instructions on how to obtain
service.  A purchase receipt or other proof of date of original purchase is required before warranty service is performed. Defective parts covered by
this Limited Warranty will be repaired or replaced with new or comparable rebuilt parts on an exchange basis.  Warranty replacement or repair is
subject to the terms of this Limited Warranty for the balance of the original period of warranty coverage.

No Coverage 

– This Limited Warranty does not cover products purchased outside Canada.  Neither does it cover damage to, failure of, or defects in

a product or accessory through mishandling, improper installation, abnormal use, misuse, neglect, accident, introduction of liquid or other foreign
matter into the product, alteration or servicing by anyone not authorized by PCI, or act of God.

IF YOU  SHIP THE  PRODUCT  FOR WARRANTY  SERVICE

Carefully pack the product, preferably in the original carton.  Include details of defect claimed and proof of date of original purchase.  No liability is
assumed for loss or damage to the product while in transit, if you chose your own transportation carrier.

SOFTWARE MEDIA LIMITED WARRANTY

Coverage 

– Panasonic Canada Inc. (“PCI”) warrants to you, the first end user customer, that the disk(s) or other media on which software program(s)

is/are supplied will be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use in Canada for a period of sixty (60) days from date of receipt
as evidenced by your purchase receipt for your Panasonic Computer product.

THIS IS THE ONLY WARRANTY THAT PCI MAKES RESPECTING THE SOFTWARE MEDIA.  PCI does not warrant the software.  Please refer to the
software licensor’s written warranty (accompanying the copy of the software) for any software warranty claim.

Claim Procedure

 – In the event of a defect in material or workmanship in the media during the sixty (60) day warranty period, and you return it,

transportation costs prepaid, to Panasonic Canada Inc., Computer Products Marketing, at the above address, within the warranty period, together
with a copy of your purchase receipt, and an explanation of the suspected defect, PCI will replace in Canada the defective disk(s) or other media.

Remedy

 – PCI’s entire liability, and your only remedy for any breach of this software media warranty is limited to replacement of the media only.  It

does not cover any other damages, including, but not limited to, loss of use or profit loss, or special, indirect or consequential damages, or other
claims, whether or not of similar character.

No Coverage

 – This limited warranty does not apply if the disk(s) or other media has been used in other than a Panasonic product, or in environmen-

tal conditions other than those specified by PCI or the manufacturer, or if subjected to misuse, neglect, mishandling, modification or attempted
modification of the program, or if damaged by accident or act of God.   PCI is not responsible for damage to or loss of any program, data or removable
storage media.

GENERAL

NO OTHER WARRANTIES – PCI DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, WITH RESPECT TO THE SOFTWARE, SOFT-
WARE MEDIA, COMPUTER PRODUCT, OPTIONS AND ACCESSORIES.

NO LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES – IN NO EVENT SHALL PCI BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUEN-
TIAL DAMAGES ARISING FROM ANY BREACH OF THE LIMITED WARRANTIES SET OUT IN THIS DOCUMENT, OR FROM THE USE OF THE
COMPUTER PRODUCT, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOSS OF DATA, BUSINESS, PROFIT OR GOODWILL.

IN ANY EVENT, PCI’S MAXIMUM LIABILITY FOR ANY BREACH SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT  ACTUALLY  PAID BY YOU  FOR THE
COMPUTER PRODUCT.

NO ACTION, REGARDLESS OF ITS BASIS, MAY BE BEGUN AGAINST PCI MORE THAN TWO (2) YEARS AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION
