Nothing contained herein or in any Other Consent or other similar document, and no action taken by the Holder pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Holder and any other person, including any Required Holder, as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Holder and any such other person are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Waiver or any Other Consent or similar document, and the Company acknowledges that, to the best of its knowledge, the Holder is not acting in concert or as a group with any other party or parties, with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Waiver, or any Other Consent or other similar document.
