under this contract shall have no defect, arising from design, materials, or workmanship (except
when the design and/or material is required by the purchaser’s specifications) or from any act or
omission of the supplier, that may develop under normal use of the supplied goods in the conditions
prevailing in the country of final destination.
15.2 This warranty shall remain valid for twelve (12) months after the goods, or any portion thereof as the
