other or to any third party for any loss of use, revenue, profit, or data, or for any consequential, incidental, indirect,

whether such damage was foreseeable and whether such party has been advised of the possibility of such damages.

schedules and exhibits contain the entire agreement between the parties and supersede any prior oral and written
representations by the parties that relate to the subject matter of this Agreement. This Agreement may not be amended,
supplemented, or waived in any respect without written agreement of both parties, signed by their respective
authorized representatives. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, which will together
constitute but one agreement and each of which will be an original. A party's failure to insist, in one or more instances,
upon performance of any provision of this Agreement will not be construed as a waiver of its right and the other party's
obligations will continue in full force. Either party's consent to any act by the other party on any occasion will not be
deemed consent on any other occasion. Electronic transmissions bearing a party's signature will for all purposes be
deemed an original. If any court determines a provision of this Agreement is invalid, such holding will not affect the
validity of other provisions and they will remain in effect.
