Accessory Limited Warranty

Research In Motion Limited and its affiliated group of companies ("RIM"), the provider of the accessory for the RIM Wireless Handheld (the "Accessory") warrants to YOU, the end-user ("YOU"), that the Accessory will be free from defects in workmanship and materials for a period that is the shorter of: (i) one (1) year from the date that the Accessory was first purchased by YOU as an original end-user, and (ii) the period ending upon your breach of any of the provisions of this Limited Warranty or the safety information provided with the Accessory and/or the RIM Wireless Handheld (the "Warranty Period"). This Limited Warranty is not transferable. During the Warranty Period, the Accessory, or one or more of the Accessory components (if applicable), will be repaired or replaced at RIM's option, without charge for either parts or labour. If the Accessory (or component thereof) is repaired or replaced during the Warranty Period, the Warranty Period will expire upon the later of the 91st day after repair or replacement or one year from the date of original purchase for the Accessory. Please consult the documentation provided with the Accessory for instructions on how to obtain customer support for your Accessory.

This Limited Warranty does not apply to normal wear and tear, and does not cover repair or replacement of any Accessory damaged by misuse, accident, abuse, neglect, misapplication, or defects due to repairs or modifications made by anyone other than RIM or its

Accessory Limited Warranty (page 2) authorized service representative. This Limited Warranty does not cover physical damage to the surface of the Accessory. This Limited Warranty does not apply to any equipment other than the Accessory as defined in this Limited Warranty, i.e., it does not apply to any external battery that may be provided with your acquisition of the Accessory or RIM Wireless Handheld, or any damage caused by the leakage or any other malfunction of an external battery or any other accessory or peripheral equipment. This Limited Warranty also does not apply if the malfunction results from the use of the Accessory in conjunction with accessories, products, services or ancillary or peripheral equipment not approved or provided by RIM, and where it is determined by RIM that such malfunction is not the fault of the Accessory itself. Additionally, if malfunction results from the failure of the user to abide by the safety information contained in the package with the Accessory and/or the RIM Wireless Handheld, the Limited Warranty may be void, and if it is not void, it shall not apply. To the extent that any third party provides any manufacturers or other warranties or guarantees that may be passed on to YOU, such warranties and/or guarantees are automatically passed on to YOU without any further effort on your part or on the part of RIM.
