This Limited Warranty also does not cover cosmetic damage or normal wear and tear. This Limited Warranty does
not apply to NOOKs sold as used, refurbished or reconditioned, except to the extent that such NOOK is a certified
pre-owned NOOK that was purchased directly from B&N or from a B&N authorized reseller of certified pre-owned
NOOKs. This Limited Warranty will be void if the Serial Number on your NOOK has been removed, tampered with
or defaced or if your NOOK has been opened or serviced without authorization, tampered with, altered or modi-
fied. Please note that opening the back cover of your NOOK to change the battery, external SD card or back cover
will void this Limited Warranty, except to the extent that such opening is done through a customer-accessible opening
and in accordance with the instructions provided with the NOOK.
This Limited Warranty applies to your NOOK only (i.e., the hardware), and not to the software within your NOOK.
Please refer to the NOOK® TERMS OF SERVICE for your rights and remedies with respect to such software.
Similarly, this Limited Warranty does not cover downloaded data or materials, or accessories and peripherals, except
as expressly provided above.

REPRESENTATION, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES OCCURRING, AND EVEN IF

may not apply to you.

apply to this Limited Warranty, though the laws of your state of residence may apply to any tort claims and any
