Apart from what is explicitly stated below, the agreement supersedes all earlier oral and written agreements between the Company, or any associated company, and the Employee, relating to the employment of the Employee. For the purpose of this agreement, “associated company” means a legal entity directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under common control with the Company, irrespective of the country of registration of such legal entity.
