“Warranty Period” shall mean (a) as to Phones, Satellite Data Modems and Satellite Data and Voice Modules, twelve (12) months, and (b) as to Car Kits and the GCK-1700 Car Kit, ninety (90) days.  In each case beginning on the date of delivery thereof to the FCA Point.  No warranty shall apply to either (i) any antenna delivered as part of the SDVM or the GCK-1700 Car Kit not manufactured by, or on behalf of, QUALCOMM, (ii) the GCK-1700 Car Kit and/or SDVM if the defect is the result of improper packaging by Globalstar or its designee, or (iii) any GCK-1700 Car Kit and/or SDVM sold, tested or used with Globalstar Antenna not approved for use in writing by QUALCOMM, or (iv) Accessories, Tools or Upgrade Program and Test Tools, including any Accessory packaged with a Phone, Car Kit, GCK-1700 Car Kit or SDVM.  No warranty shall apply to the GCK-1700 Car Kit or SDVM if the defect is caused by a Globalstar Antenna.”

Delays in receipt of the production samples of Globalstar Antennas as provided for in Section 26 of the Agreement, or inability by QUALCOMM to certify the Globalstar Antenna(s) due to software or hardware issues, may result in QUALCOMM’s delivery of the GCK-1700 Car Kit and/or SDVM certified as a component only, without the proper certifications for resale.  In such event, the deliveries will be considered conforming deliveries, no late delivery penalty will apply, and payment by Buyer will be required as provided for in the Agreement.  Subsequent submittals for regulatory approvals by QUALCOMM of the GCK-1700 Car Kit and/or SDVM with Globalstar Antenna(s) will be subject to QUALCOMM’s resource availability.  In no event may Buyer sell a GCK-1700 Car Kit and/or SDVM with an antenna that is not qualified and certified by QUALCOMM.”
