This section survives the expiration or earlier termination of the Agreement.

14. MISCELLANEOUS. The Agreement and its exhibits and attachments contain the entire agreement between the parties and supersede all prior oral or written agreements between the parties with respect to the subject matter of the Agreement. Each party may, at any time, reject any handwritten change to the Agreement.

The terms and conditions of the Agreement regarding confidentiality, indemnification, limitation of liability, warranties, payment, dispute resolution, and all other terms of the Agreement that should by their nature survive the termination of the Agreement will survive. A party’s failure or delay to exercise any right is not a waiver of that right and partial exercise of any right does not preclude further the exercise of that right. The parties further agree to take whatever other actions and to execute whatever other documents are needed to fulfill the intent of the Agreement.
