7.            Entire Agreement. This Agreement together with the Merger Agreement constitute the entire agreement and supersede all other agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the Parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may not be amended or supplemented except by a written document executed by the Parties.

 

8.            Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are severable, and in the event any provision hereof is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not in any way affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof.

 

9.            U.S. Federal Income Tax Treatment. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Assignment will be a transaction between the sole owner and a disregarded entity of such owner and thus a disregarded transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
