YEAR 2000 WARRANTY – COMMERCIAL/NON-COMMERCIAL SUPPLY ITEMS. The Contractor warrants that each commercial and non-commercial telecommunications service, features, support systems, and/or hardware, software, and firmware product delivered under this Contract shall be able to accurately process date data (including, but not limited to, calculating, comparing, and sequencing) from, into, and between the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, including leap year calculations, when used in accordance with the product documentation provided by the Contractor, provided that all products (e.g., hardware, software, firmware) external to this Contract used in combination with products delivered under this contract properly exchange date data with such products. If the Contract requires that products must perform as a system in accordance with the foregoing warranty, then that warranty shall apply to those products as a system. The duration of this warranty and the remedies available to the Government for breach of this warranty shall be defined in, and subject to, the superior of the terms and limitations of the contractor’s standard commercial warranty or warranties contained in this Contract. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in such commercial warranty or warranties, the remedies available to the Government under this warranty shall include repair or replacement of any product whose non-compliance is discovered and made known to the Contractor in writing within ninety (90) days after acceptance. Nothing in this warranty shall be construed to limit any rights or remedies that the Government may otherwise have under this Contract with respect to defects other than Year 2000 performance.
