If Buyer dismantles the Used Equipment at AB?s facility, prior to removal, Buyer will provide AB with:
(1) a written indemnification agreement issued by the third party removal contractor;
(2) evidence of insurance sufficient to support the indemnity; and
(3) lien waivers from the company removing the Used Equipment, all in a form satisfactory to AB. Receipt of satisfactory indemnification and insurance documentation shall be a condition precedent to permission to enter AB?s property to perform the dismantling of the Used Equipment. The contractor?s indemnification and insurance shall provide the coverage of AB required of Buyer in Sections 5 and 6 below. If such documentation is not received by the time designated for removal of the Used Equipment, Buyer shall be in breach of its obligations hereunder. In such case, notwithstanding any payment that may have been made by Buyer for the Used Equipment and/or delivery of a bill of sale by AB, AB shall have the right (in addition to all other rights and remedies) and not as an election of remedies) to refuse to permit removal of the Used Equipment until Buyer's default is cured.
4. Warranty.
(a) AB warrants that it is the lawful owner of the Used Equipment, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances.
(b) Buyer acknowledges that AB is not the manufacturer or supplier of the Used Equipment and Buyer represents that it has selected the Used Equipment based upon its sole judgment and expertise. In addition, Buyer acknowledges that nothing contained in any discussions between the parties or between Buyer and any broker claiming to represent AB (including without limitation, Schneider Industries, Inc.) shall be deemed to constitute a representation or warranty upon which Buyer can rely. Except as set forth in Section 4(a) above, BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN PROVIDED THE OPPORTUNITY TO INSPECT THE USED EQUIPMENT, BUYER TAKES THE USED EQUIPMENT AS IS, WHERE IS, WITH ALL FAULTS AND DEFECTS BOTH LATENT AND PATENT AND BUYER AGREES THAT AB HAS MADE AND MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. AB EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO SUITABILITY, DURABILITY, FITNESS FOR USE AND MERCHANTABILITY OF ANY OF THE USED EQUIPMENT, FOR THE PURPOSES AND USES OF BUYER OR OTHERWISE. IN NO EVENT, SHALL AB BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. Buyer specifically waives all rights to make any claim against AB for breach of any warranty of any kind whatsoever, other than the warranty in Section 4(a). AB shall not be liable to Buyer for any loss, damage or expense of any kind or nature caused directly or indirectly by the Used Equipment or the disassembly, removal, use, transportation or maintenance thereof, or for the failure of operations thereof, or for repairs, service, or adjustment thereto, or for any interruption of service or loss of use thereof or for any loss of business or any other damages whatsoever and howsoever caused.
