This Assumption Agreement, and any provisions hereof, may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or

by any act or failure to act on the part of any party, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.
