As to each and every Claim released hereunder, each Loan Party hereby represents that it has received the advice of legal counsel with regard to the releases contained herein, and having been so advised, specifically waives the benefit of the provisions of Section 1542 of the Civil Code of California which provides as follows:


“A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH A CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.”

                          As to each and every Claim released hereunder, each Loan Party also waives the benefit of each other similar provision of applicable federal or state law of any applicable jurisdiction, if any, pertaining to general releases after having been advised by its legal counsel with respect thereto.

            Each Loan Party acknowledges that it may hereafter discover facts different from or in addition to those now known or believed to be true with respect to such Claims and agrees that this instrument shall be and remain effective in all respects notwithstanding any such differences or additional facts. This release shall be and remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the discovery by any Loan Party after the date hereof (i) of any new or additional Claim against any Releasee, (ii) of any new or additional facts in any way relating to this release, (iii) that any fact relied upon by it was incorrect, or (iv) that any representation or warranty made by any Releasee was untrue or that any Releasee concealed any fact, circumstance or claim relevant to any Loan Party’s execution of this release. Each Loan Party understands, acknowledges and agrees that the release set forth above may be pleaded as a full and complete defense and may be used as a basis for an injunction against any action, suit or other proceeding which may be instituted, prosecuted or attempted in breach of the provisions of such release.

                          (b)        Each Loan Party, for itself and on behalf of its successors, assigns, and officers, directors, employees, agents and attorneys, and any Person acting for or on behalf of, or claiming through it, hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably, covenants and agrees with and in favor of each Releasee above that (i) none of the provisions of the above release shall be construed as or constitute an admission of any liability on the part of any Releasee; (ii) it will not sue (at law, in equity, in any regulatory proceeding or otherwise) any Releasee on the basis of any Claim released, remised and discharged by such Person pursuant to this Section 11 ; and (iii) any attempt to assert a Claim barred by the provisions of this Section 11 shall subject it to the provisions of applicable law setting forth the remedies for the bringing of groundless, frivolous or baseless claims or causes of action. Each Loan Party further agrees that it shall not dispute the validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any of its obligations thereunder, or the validity, priority, enforceability or the extent of Lender’s Lien on any item of Collateral under the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If any Loan Party or any Person acting for or on behalf of, or claiming through it, violate the foregoing covenant, such Loan Party, agrees to pay, in addition to such other damages as any Releasee may sustain as a result of such violation, all attorneys’ fees and costs incurred by such Releasee as a result of such violation. In agreeing to the foregoing release, each Loan Party expressly disclaims any reliance on any representations or warranties, acts or omissions by any of the Releasees and hereby agrees and acknowledges that the validity and effectiveness of the above release do not depend in any way on any such representations or warranties, acts or omissions or the accuracy, completeness or validity thereof.


                          (c)        The provisions of this Section 11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the payment in full of the Obligations.

                          (d)        Each Loan Party acknowledges that the foregoing release is a material inducement to Lender’s decision to enter into this Agreement.

            12.       Specific Performance . It is understood and agreed by each of the parties hereto that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement by any party and each non-breaching party shall be entitled, without being required to demonstrate irreparable harm, likelihood of success on the merits or the insufficiency of money damages, and without (to the extent permitted by applicable law) posting a bond or other security, to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy of any such breach.

            13.       Severability . In case any provision in this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such provision shall be severable from the remainder of this Agreement and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

            14.       Integration .

            15.       Submission of Agreement . The submission of this Agreement to the parties or their agents or attorneys for review or signature does not constitute a commitment by Lender to forbear from exercising any of their rights and remedies under the Loan Documents, and this Agreement shall have no binding force or effect until all of the conditions to the effectiveness of this Agreement have been satisfied as set forth herein.

            16.       Modification and No Further Commitment . This Agreement may not be amended, waived, supplemented or otherwise modified in any manner without the written consent of the party against whom the amendment, waiver, supplement or other modification is sought to be enforced. Each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that (a) Lender has no obligation whatsoever to discuss, negotiate or to agree to any restructuring of the loans or other Obligations under the Credit Agreement, or any modification, amendment, waiver, supplement, restructuring or reinstatement of the Loan Documents, or to forbear from exercising Lender’s rights and remedies under the Loan Documents, except as specifically provided in this Agreement, and (b) if there are any future discussions among Lender and the Loan Parties concerning any such modification, amendment, waiver, supplement, restructuring or reinstatement, then no modification, amendment, waiver, supplement, restructuring, reinstatement, compromise, settlement, agreement or understanding with respect to the loans or Obligations under the Credit Agreement or the Loan Documents shall constitute a legally binding agreement or contract or have any force or effect whatsoever unless and until reduced to writing and signed by authorized representatives of Lender, and none of the parties hereto shall assert or claim in any legal proceedings or otherwise that any such agreement exists except in accordance with the terms of this Section 16 .


            17.      Reaffirmation of Obligations .

The execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement shall not operate, except as expressly set forth herein, as a forbearance, waiver, consent or modification of any right, power, or remedy of Lender under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document. The waivers, consents and modifications herein are limited to the specifics hereof (including facts or occurrences on which the same are based), shall not apply with respect to any facts or occurrences other than those on which the same are based, and shall not (i) excuse future non-compliance with the Loan Documents, (ii) operate as a consent to any further or other matter under the Loan Documents, or (iii) operate as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default. Lender is not obligated to consider or consent to any additional request by any Loan Party for any other waiver, consent or other modification with respect to the Credit Agreement. Except for the waivers, consents and other modifications expressly set forth above, the text of the Credit Agreement and all other existing Loan Documents shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect and Lender expressly reserves the right to require strict compliance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

            21.       No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies . No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

            27.       Relationship of the Loan Parties and Lender . The relationship between Borrowers and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and Lender, on the other hand, is solely that of debtor and creditor, and Lender has no fiduciary or other special relationship with any Borrower or Guarantor, and no term or condition of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be construed so as to deem the relationship between any Borrower or Guarantor and Lender to be other than that of debtor and creditor.

            28.      Releasees Not Agents of Any Loan Party . Each Loan Party acknowledges that at the time this Agreement was negotiated and entered that no “Releasee” as defined in Section 11 of this Agreement is an agent, dual agent or fiduciary of any Loan Party.

As to each and every Claim released hereunder, each Loan Party hereby represents that it has received the advice of legal counsel with regard to the releases contained herein, and having been so advised, specifically waives the benefit of the provisions of Section 1542 of the Civil Code of California which provides as follows:

                                 As to each and every Claim released hereunder, each Loan Party also waives the benefit of each other similar provision of applicable federal or state law of any applicable jurisdiction, if any, pertaining to general releases after having been advised by its legal counsel with respect thereto.

            Each Loan Party acknowledges that it may hereafter discover facts different from or in addition to those now known or believed to be true with respect to such Claims and agrees that this instrument shall be and remain effective in all respects notwithstanding any such differences or additional facts.

Each Loan Party understands, acknowledges and agrees that the release set forth above may be pleaded as a full and complete defense and may be used as a basis for an injunction against any action, suit or other proceeding which may be instituted, prosecuted or attempted in breach of the provisions of such release.


                                 (b)        Each Loan Party, for itself and on behalf of its successors, assigns, and officers, directors, employees, agents and attorneys, and any Person acting for or on behalf of, or claiming through it, hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably, covenants and agrees with and in favor of each Releasee above that (i) none of the provisions of the above release shall be construed as or constitute an admission of any liability on the part of any Releasee; (ii) it will not sue (at law, in equity, in any regulatory proceeding or otherwise) any Releasee on the basis of any Claim released, remised and discharged by such Person pursuant to this Section 11 ; and (iii) any attempt to assert a Claim barred by the provisions of this Section 11 shall subject it to the provisions of applicable law setting forth the remedies for the bringing of groundless, frivolous or baseless claims or causes of action. Each Loan Party further agrees that it shall not dispute the validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any of its obligations thereunder, or the validity, priority, enforceability or the extent of Lender’s Lien on any item of Collateral under the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If any Loan Party or any Person acting for or on behalf of, or claiming through it, violate the foregoing covenant, such Loan Party, agrees to pay, in addition to such other damages as any Releasee may sustain as a result of such violation, all attorneys’ fees and costs incurred by such Releasee as a result of such violation. In agreeing to the foregoing release, each Loan Party expressly disclaims any reliance on any representations or warranties, acts or omissions by any of the Releasees and hereby agrees and acknowledges that the validity and effectiveness of the above release do not depend in any way on any such representations or warranties, acts or omissions or the accuracy, completeness or validity thereof.

                                 (d)        Each Loan Party acknowledges that the foregoing release is a material inducement to Lender’s decision to enter into this Agreement.

            12.        Specific Performance . It is understood and agreed by each of the parties hereto that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement by any party and each non-breaching party shall be entitled, without being required to demonstrate irreparable harm, likelihood of success on the merits or the insufficiency of money damages, and without (to the extent permitted by applicable law) posting a bond or other security, to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy of any such breach.

            13.        Severability . In case any provision in this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such provision shall be severable from the remainder of this Agreement and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

            17.        Reaffirmation of Obligations .

            19.        Reservation of Rights .

Lender shall not by virtue of any action or omission, including the acceptance of any payment under the Credit Agreement, be deemed to have altered or prejudiced any remedies, powers, rights, or privileges under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document in connection with any Default or Event of Default. Lender hereby expressly reserves all of its remedies, powers, rights, and privileges under the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, at law (including under the UCC), in equity, or otherwise.

            22.        No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies . No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

            23.        Notices . All notices, requests, and demands to or upon the respective parties hereto shall be given in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

            25.        Headings . The headings listed herein are for convenience only and do not constitute matters to be construed in interpreting this Agreement.

            26.        Construction .

            28.        Relationship of the Loan Parties and Lender . The relationship between Borrowers and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and Lender, on the other hand, is solely that of debtor and creditor, and Lender has no fiduciary or other special relationship with any Borrower or Guarantor, and no term or condition of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be construed so as to deem the relationship between any Borrower or Guarantor and Lender to be other than that of debtor and creditor.

            29.        Releasees Not Agents of Any Loan Party . Each Loan Party acknowledges that at the time this Agreement was negotiated and entered that no “Releasee” as defined in Section 11 of this Agreement is an agent, dual agent or fiduciary of any Loan Party.
