Only evidence that took place after the signing of the contract is admissible under the parol evidence rule. Choice A is admissible as it is a letter after the signing of the contract. Choice B does not indicate when it was written and therefore may have been before the signing of the contract. Choice C concerns agreements made during negotiations and is thus inadmissible. Choice D concerns external and general rules, and therefore, is not a part of the contract and not admissible.
