(2) Any description of leased goods or of the lease term is sufficient and  satisfies  subsection  (1)(b), whether or not it is specific, if it reasonably identifies what is described.  (3) A writing is not insufficient  because  it  omits  or  incorrectly states  a  term  agreed  upon, but the lease contract is not enforceable under subsection (1)(b) beyond the lease term and the quantity of  goods shown in the writing.

(5)  The  lease  term under a lease contract referred to in subsection (4) is:       (a) if there is a  writing  signed  by  the  party  against  whom            enforcement  is  sought  or  by that party's authorized agent            specifying the lease term, the term so specified;       (b) if the party against whom enforcement  is  sought  admits  in            that  party's  pleading,  testimony,  or otherwise in court a            lease term, the term so admitted; or       (c) a reasonable lease term.

(3) Although an attempt at modification or rescission does not satisfy the requirements of subsection (2), it may operate as a waiver.  (4)  A party who has made a waiver affecting an executory portion of a lease  contract  may  retract  the  waiver  by  reasonable  notification received  by the other party that strict performance will be required of any term waived, unless the retraction would be  unjust  in  view  of  a material change of position in reliance on the waiver.
NY UCC § 2-A-209 (2021)
2021 New York Laws UCC - Uniform Commercial Code Article 2-A - Leases Part 2 - Formation and Construction of Lease Contract 2-A-209 - Lessee Under Finance Lease as Beneficiary of Supply Contract.

(1) The benefit of a supplier's  promises  to  the  lessor  under  the supply  contract  and  of  all  warranties,  whether express or implied, including those of any third party provided in  connection  with  or  as part  of the supply contract, extends to the lessee to the extent of the lessee's leasehold interest under a finance lease related to the  supply contract,  but is subject to the terms of the warranty and of the supply contract and all defenses or claims arising therefrom.  (2) The extension of the benefit  of  a  supplier's  promises  and  of warranties  to  the lessee under subsection (1) does not: (i) modify the rights and obligations of the parties to the  supply  contract,  whether arising  therefrom  or  otherwise,  or (ii) impose any duty or liability under the supply contract on the lessee.  (3) Any modification or rescission  of  the  supply  contract  by  the supplier  and  lessor  is  effective between the supplier and the lessee unless, before the modification or rescission, the supplier has received notice that the lessee has entered into a finance lease related  to  the supply  contract. If the modification or rescission is effective between the supplier and the lessee, the lessor is deemed to  have  assumed,  in addition  to the obligations of the lessor to the lessee under the lease contract, promises of the supplier to the  lessor  and  warranties  that were  so modified or rescinded as they existed and were available to the lessee before modification or rescission.  (4) In addition to the extension of  the  benefit  of  the  supplier's promises  and  of  warranties  to  the  lessee under subsection (1), the lessee retains all rights which the lessee may have against the supplier that arise from any agreement between the lessee and supplier  or  under other law.

(1) Express warranties by the lessor are created as follows:       (a) any  affirmation of fact or promise made by the lessor to the            lessee which relates to the goods and  becomes  part  of  the            basis  of  the  bargain  creates an express warranty that the            goods will 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            will conform to the description.       (c) any sample or model that is made part of  the  basis  of  the            bargain  creates  an  express  warranty that the whole of the            goods will conform to the sample or model.  (2) It is not necessary to the creation of an  express  warranty  that the  lessor  use formal words, such as "warrant" or "guarantee," or that the lessor have  a  specific  intention  to  make  a  warranty,  but  an affirmation  merely  of the value of the goods or a statement purporting to be merely the lessor's opinion or commendation of the goods does  not create a warranty.

(2) Except in a finance lease there is in a lease contract by a lessor who is a merchant regularly dealing in goods of the kind a warranty that the goods are delivered free of the rightful claim of any person by  way of infringement or the like.  (3)  A  lessee  who furnishes specifications to a lessor or a supplier shall hold the lessor and the supplier harmless against any claim by way of infringement or the like that  arises  out  of  compliance  with  the specifications.

Section 2-A-213. Implied Warranty of Fitness for Particular Purpose.Except  in  a  finance  lease,  if  the  lessor  at the time the lease   contract is made has reason to know of any particular purpose for  which   the  goods  are  required and that the lessee is relying on the lessor's   skill or judgment to select or furnish suitable goods, there is  in  the   lease  contract  an implied warranty that the goods will be fit for that   purpose.

Section 2-A-214. Exclusion or Modification of Warranties.  (1)  Words  or conduct relevant to the creation of an express warranty and words or conduct tending to negate  or  limit  a  warranty  must  be construed  wherever  reasonable  as  consistent  with  each  other; but, subject to the provisions of  Section  2-A-202  on  parol  or  extrinsic evidence,  negation  or limitation is inoperative to the extent that the construction is unreasonable.  (2) Subject to subsection  (3),  to  exclude  or  modify  the  implied warranty  of merchantability or any part of it the language must mention "merchantability", be by a  writing,  and  be  conspicuous.  Subject  to subsection (3), to exclude or modify any implied warranty of fitness the exclusion  must  be by a writing and be conspicuous. Language to exclude all implied warranties of fitness is sufficient if it is in writing,  is conspicuous  and  states,  for  example,  "there is no warranty that the goods will be fit for a particular purpose".  (3) Notwithstanding subsection (2), but subject to subsection (4),       (a) unless the  circumstances  indicate  otherwise,  all  implied            warranties are excluded by expressions like "as is," or "with            all   faults,"   or   by   other   language  that  in  common            understanding calls the lessee's attention to  the  exclusion            of  warranties  and  makes  plain  that  there  is no implied            warranty, if in writing and conspicuous;       (b) if the lessee before entering into  the  lease  contract  has            examined the goods or the sample or model as fully as desired            or  has  refused  to  examine  the goods, there is no implied            warranty with regard to defects that an examination ought  in            the circumstances to have revealed; and       (c) an  implied  warranty  may  also  be  excluded or modified by            course of dealing, course of performance, or usage of trade.  (4) To exclude or modify a warranty against  interference  or  against infringement  (Section  2-A-211) or any part of it, the language must be specific, be by a writing, and be conspicuous, unless the circumstances, including course of performance, course of dealing, or usage  of  trade, give  the  lessee reason to know that the goods are being leased subject to a claim or interest of any person.
NY UCC § 2-A-215 (2021)
2021 New York Laws UCC - Uniform Commercial Code Article 2-A - Leases Part 2 - Formation and Construction of Lease Contract 2-A-215 - Cumulation and Conflict of Warranties Express or Implied.

Section 2-A-215. Cumulation   and  Conflict  of  Warranties  Express  or                    Implied.   Warranties,  whether  express  or  implied,  must  be   construed   as consistent  with  each other and as cumulative, but if that construction is unreasonable, the intention of the parties determines which  warranty is dominant. In ascertaining that intention the following rules apply:  (1)  exact or technical specifications displace an inconsistent sample or model or general language of description.  (2) a sample from an  existing  bulk  displaces  inconsistent  general language of description.  (3)  express warranties displace inconsistent implied warranties other than an implied warranty of fitness for a particular purpose.

Section 2-A-216. Third-Party   Beneficiaries   of   Express  or  ImpliedWarranties.A warranty to or for the benefit  of  a  lessee  under  this  Article,   whether  express  or  implied,  extends  to  any natural person if it is   reasonable to expect that such person may use, consume, or  be  affected   by  the  goods  and  who is injured in person by breach of the warranty.   This section does not displace principles of law and equity that  extend   a  warranty  to  or  for  the  benefit of a lessee to other persons. The   operation of this section may not be excluded, modified, or limited, but   an exclusion, modification, or limitation of the warranty, including any   with respect to rights and remedies, effective  against  the  lessee  is   also effective against the beneficiary designated under this section.
