(b)The consents in this Section 3.01 shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth herein and shall not (i) be construed as a waiver of any breach, Default or Event of Default nor as a waiver of any breach, Default or Event of Default of which the Agent and the Lenders have not been informed by the Loan Parties, (ii) affect the right of the Agent or the Lenders to demand compliance by the Loan Parties with all terms and conditions of the Loan Documents, except as specifically waived by this Consent, (iii) be deemed a waiver or consent to of any transaction or future action on the part of any Loan Party requiring the Agent’s or any Lender’s consent or approval under the Loan Documents, other than as expressly set forth herein, or (iv) except as consented to hereby, be deemed or construed to be a waiver or release of, or a limitation upon, the Agent’s or the Lenders’ exercise of any rights or remedies under the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document, whether arising as a consequence of any Default or Event of Default which may now exist or otherwise, all such rights and remedies hereby being expressly reserved.
