However, subject to the provisions of Section 7.8, such notification shall not relieve either the COMPANY or the STOCKHOLDERS of their respective obligations under this Agreement, and, subject to the provisions of Section 7.8, at the sole option of VPI, the truth and accuracy of any and all warranties and representations of the COMPANY, or on behalf of the COMPANY and of STOCKHOLDERS at the date of this Agreement and on the Pre-Closing Date and on the Closing Date, contained in this Agreement (including the Schedules and Annexes hereto) shall be a precondition to the consummation of this transaction.
