(1) Express warranties by the seller are created as follows: (a) Any affirmation of fact or promise made by the seller to the buyer which relates
to the goods and becomes part of the basis of the bargain creates an express warranty
that the goods shall conform to the affirmation or promise. (b) Any description of the goods which is made part of the basis of the bargain creates
an express warranty that the goods shall conform to the description. (c) Any sample or model which is made part of the basis of the bargain creates an
express warranty that the whole of the goods shall conform to the sample or model. (2) It is not necessary to the creation of an express warranty that the seller use
formal words such as “warrant” or “guarantee” or that he have a specific intention
to make a warranty, but an affirmation merely of the value of the goods or a statement
