Seller may assign its rights and obligations under the Contract at any time, without Purchaser's prior written consent. The failure of either party to enforce any right or remedy provided in the Contract or by law on a particular occasion will not be deemed a waiver of that right or remedy on a subsequent occasion or a waiver of any other right or remedy. The Contract constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to its subject matter, and supersedes all prior oral or written representations or agreements by the parties with respect to the subject matter of the Contract. This Contract may not be modified unless in writing and signed by authorized representatives of both parties.
