In order to be effective, all waivers under this Agreement must be in writing and signed by the waiving Party. If any term, section or provision of this Agreement shall be judged to be invalid for any reason whatsoever, such invalidity shall not affect the validity or operation of any other term, section or provision of this Agreement and such invalid term, section or provision shall be deemed to have been deleted from this Agreement.

TCS or its Affiliates are not liable for, nor bound by any acts of any Partner.

14.6 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, along with its schedules (where applicable), the applicable OF(s), and any referenced documents or policies in them sets forth the entire agreement between the Parties and supersedes any other prior or contemporaneous communications, proposals, agreements and representations related to its subject matter, whether written or oral.
