(b) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, any such Schedule Supplement after the date of this Agreement (i) shall be disregarded in all respects for purposes of determining whether any Losses exist or is indemnifiable under this Agreement and (ii) for the avoidance of doubt, shall not prejudice or otherwise affect any Partys right to seek relief for another Partys breach of a representation or warranty or affect the Partys right to indemnification under Section 10.1, Section 11.1, or Section 11.2 hereof.
