and agreements contained in this Agreement, or to exercise any option conferred by this Agreement in one or more
instances shall not be construed to be a waiver or relinquishment of those covenants, agreements or options, and the
same shall be and remain in full force and effect.

accordance with the laws of the State of Washington. If the parties are unable to settle any dispute, difference or claim
