that it is aware it may hereafter discover claims presently unknown or unsuspected, or facts in addition to or different from those which such Releasors now knows or believes to be true, with respect to the matters released herein.  Nevertheless, it is each of the Releasors’ intent in executing this Agreement to fully, finally and forever release and settle such matters to the extent they arise out of any matter, cause or event occurring prior to the Second Amendment Effective Date.  In making this release, each of the Releasors has consulted with counsel concerning the effect thereof.

 

Section 7.              LIMITED WAIVER.

 

Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby represents and warrants that no Default or Event of Default with respect to such Borrower or Guarantor has occurred and continues to exist immediately prior to the occurrence of the Second Amendment Effective Date and immediately prior to giving effect to the consummation of the Second Amendment other than any Default or Event of Default that may have been caused by, or may have resulted from, the inclusion in the Borrowing Base prior to August 3, 2009 or the inclusion in any Borrowing Base Certificate delivered prior to August 3, 2009, of the parcels of real property commonly known as Byers Station Tract 3 and/or Ewing Tracts 4 and 5 (collectively, the “Prior Events”).  In reliance upon such representation and warranty, upon the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2, the undersigned Lenders hereby waive any Defaults or Events of Default that may have been caused by or may have resulted from the Prior Events and agree that no representation or warranty given by any Borrower or Guarantor prior to the date hereof will be considered to be false, incorrect or incomplete solely as a result of the occurrence of the Prior Events.  Without limiting the generality of the provisions of the covenants set forth in the Loan Agreement, the waiver set forth herein shall be limited precisely as written and relates solely to any noncompliance by the Borrowers and Guarantor with respect to the Prior Events in the manner and to the extent described in this paragraph, and nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to (a) constitute a waiver of noncompliance under the Loan Agreement relating to the inclusion of parcels that are not Eligible Projects in the Borrowing Base or any Borrowing Base Certificate in the future, (b) constitute a waiver of compliance by Borrowers and Guarantor with respect to any other term, provision or condition of the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document or any other instrument or agreement referred to herein or therein or (c) prejudice any right or remedy that the Agent, Issuing Lender, any Agent or any Lender may now have or may have in the future under or in connection with the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document or any other instrument or agreement referred to therein.
