13. NOKIA One-Year Limited

Warranty

Nokia Mobile Phones, Inc. (“NMP”) warrants that this cellular
phone (“Product”) is free from defects in material and workmanship
that result in Product failure during normal usage, according to the
following terms and conditions:

1. The limited warranty for the Product extends for ONE (1) year
beginning on the date of the purchase of the Product.

2. The limited warranty extends to the original purchaser of the
Product (“Consumer”) and is not assignable or transferable to any
subsequent purchaser/end-user.

3. The limited warranty extends only to Consumers who purchase
the Product in the United States.

4. During the limited warranty period, NMP will repair, or replace, at
NMP's option, any defective parts, or any parts that will not
properly operate for their intended use with new or factory rebuilt
replacement items if such repair or replacement is needed because
of product malfunction or failure during normal usage. No charge
will be made to the Consumer for any such parts. NMP will also
pay for the labor charges incurred by NMP in repairing or replacing
the defective parts. The limited warranty does not cover defects in
appearance, cosmetic, decorative or structural items, including
framing, and any non-operative parts. NMP's limit of liability under
the limited warranty shall be the actual cash value of the Product
at the time the Consumer returns the Product for repair, determined
by the price paid by the Consumer for the Product less a reasonable
amount for usage. NMP shall not be liable for any other losses or
damages. These remedies are the Consumer’s exclusive remedies
for breach of warranty.

5. Upon request from NMP, the Consumer must prove the date of
the original purchase of the Product by a dated bill of sale or dated
itemized receipt.

6. The Consumer shall bear the cost of shipping the Product to
NMP in Melbourne, Florida. NMP shall bear the cost of shipping
the Product back to the Consumer after the completion of service
under this limited warranty.

7. The Consumer shall have no coverage or benefits under this
limited warranty if any of the following conditions are applicable:

11. Some states do not allow limitation of how long an implied
warranty lasts, so the above one-year warranty limitation may not
apply to you (the Consumer). Some states do not allow the
exclusion or limitation of incidental and consequential damages, so

(the Consumer). This limited warranty gives the Consumer specific
legal rights and the Consumer may also have other rights which
vary from state to state.

12. NMP neither assumes nor authorizes any authorized service
center or any other person or entity to assume for it any other
obligation or liability beyond that which is expressly provided for in
this limited warranty including the provider or seller of any extended
warranty or service agreement.

understandings, oral or written, and all communications relating to
the Product, and no representation, promise or condition not
