6. The Recipient agrees that it shall immediately return all Information and any copies thereof to the Owner immediately upon request from the Owner.

12. All understandings and agreements previously existing (oral or in writing) by the parties are merged into this Agreement, which alone fully and completely expresses their Agreement. Neither party will rely on any representation or statement previously made prior to this Agreement that is not found herein. Neither Party is required to proceed with any proposed transaction or relationship in connection with the Confidential Information which may be disclosed.

No waiver by any Party of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set out in writing and signed by the Party so waiving. No waiver by any Party shall operate or be construed as a waiver in respect of any failure, breach, or default not expressly identified by such written waiver, whether of a similar or different character, and whether occurring before or after that waiver. No failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power, or privilege arising from this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, privilege, or power.
