Limitation of Liability

Lenovo is responsible for loss of, or damage to, your Machine only while it is

1)in your Service Provider’s possession or 2) in transit in those cases where Lenovo is responsible for the transportation charges.

Neither Lenovo nor your Service Provider are responsible for any of your confidential, proprietary or personal information contained in a Machine which you return for any reason. You should remove all such information from the Machine prior to its return.

Circumstances may arise where, because of a default on Lenovo’s part or other liability, you are entitled to recover damages from Lenovo. In each such instance, regardless of the basis on which you are entitled to claim damages from Lenovo (including fundamental breach, negligence, misrepresentation, or other contract or tort claim), except for any liability that cannot be waived or limited by applicable laws, Lenovo is liable for no more than

1.damages for bodily injury (including death) and damage to real property and tangible personal property for which Lenovo is legally liable; and

2.the amount of any other actual direct damages, up to the charges for the Machine that is subject of the claim.

This limit also applies to Lenovo’s suppliers, resellers and your Service Provider. It is the maximum for which Lenovo, its suppliers, resellers, and your Service Provider are collectively responsible.

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES IS LENOVO, ITS SUPPLIERS, RESELLERS OR SERVICE PROVIDERS LIABLE FOR ANY OF THE FOLLOWING EVEN IF INFORMED OF THEIR POSSIBILITY: 1) THIRD PARTY CLAIMS AGAINST YOU FOR DAMAGES (OTHER THAN THOSE UNDER THE FIRST ITEM LISTED ABOVE); 2) LOSS OF, OR DAMAGE TO, DATA; 3) SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR INDIRECT DAMAGES OR FOR ANY ECONOMIC CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES; OR 4) LOST PROFITS, BUSINESS REVENUE, GOODWILL OR ANTICIPATED SAVINGS. SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

Governing Law

Both you and Lenovo consent to the application of the laws of the country in which you acquired the Machine to govern, interpret, and enforce all of your and Lenovo’s rights, duties, and obligations arising from, or relating in any manner to, the subject matter of this Statement of Limited Warranty, without regard to conflict of law principles.
