Other clauses generally recognized as a viable termination of a contract include limitation of liability clauses, arbitration clauses and (potentially) indemnity clauses. Okay, so, if the parties want to survive, it survives! An intention should not be explicitly made in a treaty. Instead, it can be taken out of context.
