For avoidance of doubt, the foregoing Limited Waiver shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any other existing or hereafter arising Defaults or Events of Default or any other deviation from the express terms of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document. This is a Limited Waiver and shall not be deemed to constitute a consent or waiver of any other term, provision or condition of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, as applicable, or to prejudice any right or remedy (except with respect to the Specified Event of Default) that Lender may now have or may have in the future under or in connection with the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, the right to: (i) declare all or any portion of the Loans then outstanding to be accelerated and due and payable, whereupon all or such portion of the aggregate principal of all Loans, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon (including interest at the Post-Default Rate), all fees, premiums and all other Obligations payable under the Credit Agreement (as amended by this Seventh Amendment) and the other Loan Documents shall become due and payable immediately without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are



hereby expressly waived by each Loan Party; and (ii) exercise any and all of its other rights and remedies under applicable law, under the Credit Agreement (as amended by this Seventh Amendment) and the other Loan Documents.

It is the intention of each Loan Party in providing this release that the same shall be effective as a bar to each and every claim, demand and cause of action specified, and in furtherance of this intention it waives and relinquishes all rights and benefits under any Applicable Law which provides that:

“A general release does not extend to claims which the 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 might have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.”

b. Each Loan Party, on behalf of itself and its successors, assigns, and other legal representatives, hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably, covenants and agrees with and in favor of each Released Party above that it will not sue (at law, in equity, in any regulatory proceeding or otherwise) any Released Party on the basis of any claim released, remised and discharged by any Loan Party pursuant to the above release. If any Loan Party or any of its successors, assigns or other legal representatives violates the foregoing covenant, such Loan Party, for itself and its successors, assigns and legal representatives, agrees to pay, in addition to such other damages as any Released Party may sustain as a result of such violation, all reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred by such Released Party as a result of such violation.
