• \CoMentis may not seek unjust enrichment just in case the contract does not afford it the relief it seeks; a valid contract still governs the parties' rights with respect to the subject matter at issue.\
• “[E]xpressions of opinion cannot be the basis for an action in fraud; an action in fraud requires a misrepresentation of material fact. Nonetheless, . . . if a statement is susceptible of exact knowledge when made, it is a statement of fact rather than opinion.”
