The existence of such a term is conclusive proof that no varied or additional conditions exist with respect to the performace of the contract beyond those that are in the writing. A contract that has such a clause is deemed an integrated contract, and any previous negotiations in which the parties to the contract had considered different terms will be deemed superseded by the final writing.
