The parties hereto agree to keep the terms of this Agreement confidential and not to disclose such terms or information, directly or indirectly, to any third party or entity lacking prior knowledge thereof.

10.           Non-Waiver.  The failure of any party to exercise any rights in respect of any breach or alleged breach of this Agreement by another party shall not constitute a waiver of said breach or of any provision of this Agreement, and a failure to promptly exercise any right hereunder shall not be deemed as a waiver to exercise such right in the future.
