In the event Knauf Insulation elects to offer the Original Purchaser a refund for any defective Product, Knauf Insulation shall promptly refund the Original Purchaser an amount equal to the original purchase price for the defective Product and shall have no further obligation or liability under this Limited Warranty or otherwise in connection with the defective Product.
