TI will have no liability for errors or product malfunction resulting from OEM’s use, modification, copying, or distribution of the Licensed Software.

If TI replaces the Product(s), it will replace it with new Product if the OEM notifies TI of the nonconformance within * of the date of shipment from TI. If TI elects to repair or replace the Product(s), it shall have a reasonable time to make the repair or replacement.
