This warranty applies to (a) products sold directly by Novatel Wireless M2M, unless a different
warranty is specified in a written agreement between Novatel Wireless M2M and the
purchaser; and (b) products sold to end users through a distributor authorized by Novatel
Wireless M2M, but only where the authorized distributor does not provide a separate
warranty on such products, and Novatel Wireless M2M has agreed to provide this warranty to
such end users. If you purchased the product from an authorized distributor, please check
whether this warranty from Novatel Wireless M2M, or a separate warranty from the
distributor, applies to your purchase. This warranty does not apply to any (i) accessories or
batteries for the products; or (ii) demonstration samples or prototypes of the products. Unless
otherwise provided in a written agreement between Novatel Wireless M2M and the
purchaser, all such accessories, batteries, samples or prototypes are provided by Novatel
Wireless M2M AS IS without any warranty of any kind.

Novatel Wireless M2M warrants to the original purchaser of the product from Novatel
Wireless M2M or its authorized distributor (as applicable) that, for a period of one (1) year
from the date of shipment of the product from Novatel Wireless M2M, the product hardware
will be substantially free from defects in material or workmanship under normal operation, and
the product firmware will perform substantially in accordance with the product
documentation provided by Novatel Wireless M2M. Novatel Wireless M2M does not warrant
that (a) the product hardware or firmware will meet the purchaser's requirements; (b) the
operation of the product hardware or firmware will be uninterrupted or error-free; or (c) the
product, when integrated in, or combined with, other products or software not supplied by
Novatel Wireless M2M, will continue to perform substantially in accordance with the product
documentation. This limited warranty is for the benefit of the original purchaser, and is not
transferable.

During the warranty period, Novatel Wireless M2M, at its expense and in its sole discretion,
will repair the product, or replace the product with a corresponding or equivalent product, if
it is determined to have a covered defect, provided that the purchaser first notifies Novatel
Wireless M2M (directly or through its authorized distributor from which the product was
purchased) of any such defect, furnishes Novatel Wireless M2M with a proof of purchase (if
required), requests and obtains a return merchandize authorization (RMA) number from
Novatel Wireless M2M, and returns the product under that RMA to Novatel Wireless M2M (or,
at Novatel Wireless M2M's option, to its authorized distributor), with the shipping charges
being prepaid by purchaser. If, upon reasonable examination of the returned product, Novatel
Wireless M2M does not substantiate the defect claimed by purchaser, or determines that the

by purchaser to Novatel Wireless M2M, or any returned product not found to be defective or
covered under this warranty, and reshipped by Novatel Wireless M2M to purchaser (or to
Novatel Wireless M2M's authorized distributor). In the event Novatel Wireless M2M repairs or
replaces a defective product covered by this limited warranty, the repaired or replacement
product will be covered under this limited warranty for the remainder of the original warranty
period on the defective product, or a period of ninety (90) days, whichever is longer. If
Novatel Wireless M2M is unable to repair or replace a defective product covered by this
limited warranty, Novatel Wireless M2M will provide to purchaser a credit or a refund (at
Novatel Wireless M2M's option) of the original purchase price (excluding taxes and shipping
charges). Any returned and replaced product, or any product for which Novatel Wireless M2M
has furnished a credit or a refund, becomes the property of Novatel Wireless M2M.

Novatel Wireless M2M shall not have any obligation to provide any firmware bug fixes,
upgrades or new releases except as may be necessary to correct any covered defect of which
purchaser notifies Novatel Wireless M2M in writing during the warranty period. Novatel
Wireless M2M, from time to time and in its sole discretion, may make available for download
on its website (www.novatelwireless.com), or may provide via email, certain firmware bug
fixes, upgrades or new releases for the product. Download and use of any such bug fixes,
upgrades or new releases is subject to all of the applicable terms and conditions of Novatel
Wireless M2M's technical support policy as posted and updated on its website. Novatel
Wireless M2M shall have no obligation under this limited warranty for (a) normal wear and
tear; (b) the cost of procurement of substitute products; or (c) any defect that is (i)
discovered by purchaser during the warranty period but for which purchaser does not
request an RMA number from Novatel Wireless M2M, as required above, until after the end of
the warranty period, (ii) caused by any accident, misuse, abuse, improper installation,
handling or testing, or unauthorized repair or modification of the product, (iii) caused by use
of any materials not supplied by Novatel Wireless M2M, or by use of the product other than in
accordance with its documentation, or (iv) the result of electrostatic discharge, electrical
surge, fire, flood or similar causes. The purchaser (or its customers, as applicable) shall be
solely responsible for the proper configuration, testing and verification of the Novatel
Wireless M2M product prior to deployment in the field, and for ensuring that any end user
product or system into which the Novatel Wireless M2M product is integrated or incorporated
operates as intended and meets the requirements of purchaser (or its customers). Novatel

LIKELIHOOD OF SUCH DAMAGES.

Some jurisdictions may require a longer warranty period than specified above and,
accordingly, for products sold in those jurisdictions the applicable warranty period shall be
extended as required under the laws of those jurisdictions. Furthermore, some jurisdictions

RF EXPOSURE

Your device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed
the emissions limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Government. These limits are part of
comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general
population. These guidelines are based on the safety standards previously set by the U.S. and
international standards bodies. The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to
assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.

The exposure standard for wireless RF devices, such as the device, employs a unit of

measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is

1.6W/kg. SAR values at or below that limit are considered safe for the general public.

The device conforms with the RF exposure requirements for portable devices in accordance
with FCC Part 2.1093.

The transmitter is configured with a 10% transmission duty factor, for GPRS Multislot class 8
operation, and is excluded from routine RF exposure evaluation in accordance with FCC
