All four… None of these can hold up if not both parties have confirmed them by signing/counter-signing them. The non-signing party can always claim the document presented was not the document presented and agreed to

That should read: “The non-signing party can always claim the document presented was not the document *originally* presented and agreed to”

Answer should be C.
Agreed that all 4 require both parties to sign but if you read the question carefully it states: “Before starting a test, one of the agreements both the
parties need to sign relates to limitations, constraints, liabilities, code of conduct, and indemnification considerations between the parties.” So the question it posses after must relate to the above – which gives you answer C.
