12 Warranty condition

The following conditions comprise the requirements and scope of our
warranty conditions and do not affect our legal and contractual warranty
obligations.

We offer a warranty on our products in accordance with the following
conditions:

1. ODYS products are covered by a 24 month warranty. We will resolve

damages or defects on ODYS products free of charge within 12 months
of the purchase date under the following warranty conditions. For any
damage or defect determined later than 12 months after the purchase
date, proof of a manufacturing fault must be submitted for repair under
warranty.
The warranty does not cover batteries and other parts, which are
considered consumables, parts that break easily such as glass or plastic
or defects based on normal wear and tear. There is no warranty
obligation in the event of marginal differences compared to the target
appearance and workmanship provided these have a negligible effect on
the product's fitness for use, in the event of damage caused by chemical
or electrochemical effects, by water or generally from abnormal
conditions.

2. The warranty will be performed in such a way that we shall decide

whether to repair the defective parts or to replace them with working
parts free of charge. AXDIA reserves the right to exchange the product
for a replacement product of equal value if the product that is sent in
cannot be repaired within a reasonable time or at reasonable cost. The
product can also be exchanged for a different model of the same value.

- 17 -

EN

Requests cannot be made for repairs to be carried out on site. Parts that

ODYS Xound Mini

have been replaced or exchanged become our property.

3. The warranty claim does not apply if repairs or other work is carried out

by unauthorized persons or if our products are equipped with additional
parts or accessories that are not approved for our products.

4. Warranties that have been activated do not cause the warranty period to

EN

be extended, nor do they trigger a new warranty period. The warranty
period for any replacement parts installed ends with the warranty period
for the entire product.

5. Any other or further claims are excluded, especially those for

replacement due to damage caused outside of the product, provided
there is no obligatory legal liability. We therefore accept no liability for
accidental, indirect or other consequential damage of any kind, which
leads to usage restrictions, data loss, loss of earnings or interruption to
business.

Asserting a warranty claim

1. To make use of the warranty service, you must contact the AXDIA

Service Center by e-mail, fax or phone (see below for contact details).
You can also use the service form on our website or on the back of the
warranty conditions.

2. AXDIA Service Center will try to diagnose and solve your problem. If it is

determined that a warranty claim exists, you will be given an RMA
number (Return Material Authorization) and you will be asked to send the
product to AXDIA.

- 18 -

IMPORTANT: AXDIA will only accept parcels that have an RMA number.

ODYS Xound Mini

1. Send the product suitably packaged with carriage and insurance paid.

Do not enclose any accessories with the products (no cables, CD's,
memory cards, manuals, etc.), unless the AXDIA Service Centre
specifies otherwise.

2. Mark the RMA number on the outside of the package in such a way that

it is visible and clearly legible.

3. You must enclose a copy of the sales slip as proof of purchase.

4. Once AXDIA has received the product, it will meet its warranty

obligations in accordance with the warranty conditions and will return the
product to the sender with carriage and insurance paid.

Service outside of warranty

AXDIA can refuse any service claim made that is not covered by the
warranty. If AXDIA agrees to provide a service outside the warranty, the
customer will be invoiced for all repair and transport costs.
AXDIA will not accept any packages that have not first been approved by
AXDIA by means of an RMA (Return Material Authorization).
