The updated agreement no longer includes language stating that a previously executed written agreement between Customer and W&B would govern and supersede the master service agreement. This removal eliminates explicit recognition of contractual hierarchy that may have applied to customers with signed agreements predating the master terms. The practical effect depends on whether such customers have separate agreements in place and how contract interpretation and applicable law would treat the relationship between a posted master agreement and a signed customer agreement absent explicit supersession language.
