VIII.General Provisions.

In the event that any signature is delivered by portable document format, facsimile or electronic transmission, such signature will create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original thereof.
B.Publicity. Neither party will disparage, denigrate or harm the reputation of the other party or any representative thereof, or the Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby. In addition, without the prior written consent of the other party, neither party will make, cause or permit to be made any statement, comment or inference regarding the other party, or any representative thereof, that is not substantially identical to statements made in prior public filings of the parties.
C.Entire Agreement. This Amendment, and the Agreement, Note, and Transaction Documents as modified by this Amendment, contain the entire agreement and understanding of the parties, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, term sheets, letters, discussions, communications and understandings, both oral and written, which the parties acknowledge have been merged into this Amendment and the Agreement, Note, and Transaction Documents as modified by this Amendment. No party, representative, advisor, attorney or agent has relied upon any collateral contract, agreement, assurance, promise, understanding, statement or representation not expressly set forth herein. The parties hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably waive all rights and remedies, at law and in equity, directly or indirectly arising out of or relating to, or which may arise as a result of, any Person’s reliance on any such statement or assurance.
