The failure of Sun to exercise or enforce any right or provision will not constitute a waiver of the right or provision or create any expectation of non-enforcement. Your breach of this Agreement will be deemed to have caused Sun irreparable harm entitling it to injunctive relief. This Agreement is the entire agreement with regard to its subject matter, and replaces and supersedes any prior verbal or written understandings, communications, and representations with regard to its subject matter. Furthermore, no party has relied on any communications or representations made prior to entering this Agreement.
