(g) Headings. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

 

(h) Entire Agreement; Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement (together with the Merger Agreement, and any ancillary agreement to which the parties hereto are party) (i) represents the entire understanding and agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and (ii) supersedes all prior understandings, both written and oral, among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement can be amended, supplemented or changed, and any provision hereof can be waived, only by written instrument making specific reference to this Agreement, signed by Purchaser Parties and Company Parties. No action taken pursuant to this Agreement, including any investigation by or on behalf of any party, shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the party taking such action of compliance with any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a further or continuing waiver of such breach or as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. No failure on the part of any party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or remedy by such party preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. All rights, remedies and benefits expressly provided for in this Agreement are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights, remedies or benefits provided for by law or in this Agreement, and the exercise of any remedy by a party hereto shall not be deemed an election to the exclusion of any other remedy (any such claim by the other party hereto being hereby waived).

 

(i) Interpretative Matters. Unless otherwise expressly provided, for purposes of this Agreement, the following rules of interpretation shall apply:

 

(i) The words such as “herein,” “hereinafter,” “hereof,” and “hereunder” refer to this Agreement as a whole and not merely to a subdivision in which such words appear unless the context otherwise requires.

Purchaser Parties acknowledge and agree that upon such assignment, the rights and obligations of Purchaser hereunder shall be the rights and obligations of such Affiliate or successor.
