DURATION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES
OR
CONDITIONS:
EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE

MERCHANTIBILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE ON THIS PRODUCT IS LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE DURATION OF THIS LIMITED
WARRANTY.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential
damages,

lasts,
so the above
limitations or exclusions may not apply to You. This Limited Warranty gives You specific legal rights and You may have other rights which vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.
For
purchases made
in
the U.S.: Read
the following
Dispute Resolution/Arbitration
provision carefully.
It details Your
rights and instructions
should
a
dispute related to the product
arise.
What Happens
If We Have A
Dispute:
Should a dispute or claim arise related to the product, Your purchase and/or use of the
product,
the terms of this Limited
Warranty,
or any service provided under the terms of this Limited Warranty (including any repair or replacement)
("Dispute"),
You and Sony agree that the
Dispute
shall
be
resolved
exclusively
through binding arbitration.
YOU UNDERSTAND
AND ACKNOWLEDGE THAT BY
AGREEING
TO ARBITRATION,
YOU ARE
GIVING
UP THE RIGHT TO
LITIGATE (OR
PARTICIPATE
IN AS A
PARTY OR CLASS
MEMBER)
IN ANY DISPUTES IN COURT. You
also
agree
that
ANY
DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDING WILL ONLY CONSIDER
YOUR
INDIVIDUAL CLAIMS, AND BOTH PARTIES AGREE NOT
TO HAVE
ANY DISPUTE
HEARD
AS A CLASS ACTION,
REPRESENTATIVE
ACTION,
CONSOLIDATED
ACTION, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY
GENERAL
ACTION.
Despite the
above,
You
have the right to litigate any Dispute on an individual basis in small claims court or other similar court of limited
jurisdiction,
to the extent the amount at issue does
not exceed
$15,000,
and as long as such court has proper jurisdiction and all other requirements (including the amount in controversy) are
satisfied.
Arbitration
Instructions.
To begin
Arbitration,
either You or Sony must make a written demand to the other for arbitration
.
The Arbitration will take place before a single
arbitrator.
The arbitration will be administered in keeping with the Expedited Procedures of the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Proceedings
for Consumer-Related disputes ("Rules") of the American Arbitration Association
("AAA"),
when applicable and in effect when the claim is filed. You may get a copy
of AAA's Rules by contacting AAA at (800) 778-7879 or visiting
www.adr.org.
The filing fees to begin and carry out arbitration will be shared between You and Sony,
but in no event shall Your fees ever exceed the amount allowable by the special rules for Consumers Disputes provided for by
AAA,
at which point Sony will cover
all additional administrative fees and expenses. This does not prohibit the Arbitrator from giving the winning party their fees and expenses of the arbitration when
appropriate pursuant to the
Rules.
Unless You and Sony agree
differently,
the arbitration will take place in the county and state where You
live,
and applicable federal
or state law shall govern the substance of any Dispute during the arbitration.
However,
the Federal Arbitration Act, 9
U.S.C.
§
1,
et
seq.,
will govern the arbitration itself
and not any state law on arbitration
.
The Arbitrator's decision will be binding and final, except for a limited right of appeal under the Federal Arbitration Act.
Opt-Out Instructions. IF
YOU
DO NOT WISH
TO
BE BOUND BY THE BINDING ARBITRATION PROVISION, THEN:
(1) You must notify Sony in writing within 30
days of the date that You purchased the
product;
(2) Your written notification
must
be mailed to Sony Electronics Inc., 16535 Via

(c) the DATE You purchased the
product,
and (d)
a clear statement that "YOU DO NOT WISH TO RESOLVE DISPUTES WITH ANY SONY ELECTRONICS ENTITY THROUGH ARBITRATION AND/OR BE BOUND
BY THE CLASS ACTION
WAIVER."
Opting out of this dispute resolution procedure will not affect the coverage of the Limited Warranty in any
way,
and You will continue to enjoy the benefits of the Limited
Warranty.
