Breedings Allowed: There is no limit on the number of breedings you may perform during the period covered by this contract.

The UCC warranties of merchantability and suitability for a particular purpose do not apply as a matter of law; however, if the parties operate under a mistake of law, then Lessee acknowledges that all UCC warranties are waived as a matter of fact.
