WARRANTIES EXCLUSIVE. To the full extent allowed by law, the foregoing warranties and remedies are exclusive and are in lieu of all other remedies, warranties, terms, or conditions, express or implied, either in fact or by operation of law, statutory or otherwise. Q3D’s warranties herein convey to Buyer and to the ultimate end user (the “End User“), but are not extended to any other third parties.
