You understand and agree further that, except as expressly provided for

Concurrently herewith, the Company is delivering to you the Note for

warranties or commitments except as set forth herein. This Agreement supersedes
all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, whether
written or oral, of the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof.

and remedies set forth in the Employment Agreement and the Franchise Agreements
