6. Release.

(a) In consideration of the agreements of Lender contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Borrower and each guarantor, indemnitor, or obligor with respect to the Obligations, if any, (collectively, “Obligors”), on behalf of itself and its successors, assigns and its present and former shareholders, affiliates, subsidiaries, divisions, predecessors, directors, officers, attorneys, employees, agents, and other representatives (Borrower, each Obligor, if any, and all such other persons and parties being hereinafter referred to collectively as “Releasors” and individually as a “Releasor”), hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably release, remise and forever discharge Lender, and its successors and assigns, and its present and former shareholders, affiliates, subsidiaries, divisions, predecessors, directors, officers, attorneys, employees, agents and other representatives (Lender and all such other persons being hereinafter referred to collectively as “Releasees” and individually as a “Releasee”), of and from all demands, actions, causes of action, suits, covenants, contracts, controversies, agreements, promises, sums of money, accounts, bills, reckonings, damages and any and all other claims, counterclaims, defenses, rights of set-off, demands and liabilities whatsoever (individually, a “Claim” and collectively, “Claims”) of every name and nature, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, both at law and in equity, which Releasors may now or hereafter own, hold, have or claim to have against Releasees or any of them for, upon, or by reason of any circumstance, action, cause or thing whatsoever that arises at any time on or before the day and date of this Agreement for or on account of, or in relation to, or in any way in connection with any of the Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or transactions thereunder or related thereto or hereunder.

(b) It is the intention of Borrower and each Obligor, if any, that this Agreement and the release set forth above constitute a full and final accord and satisfaction of all claims that Releasors may have or hereafter be deemed to have against Releasees as set forth herein. In furtherance of this intention, Borrower and each Obligor, on behalf of itself and each other Releasor, expressly waive any statutory or common law provision that would otherwise prevent the release set forth above from extending to claims that are not currently known or suspected to exist in any Releasor’s favor at the time of executing this Agreement and which, if known by Releasors, might have materially affected the agreement as provided for hereunder. Borrower and each Obligor, on behalf of itself and each other Releasor, acknowledge that it is familiar with section 1542 of California Civil Code:

A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS THAT THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, AND THAT IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.

(c) Borrower and each Obligor, if any, on behalf of itself and each other Releasor, waive and release any rights or benefits that each may have under section 1542 to the full extent that it may lawfully waive such rights and benefits, and Borrower and each Obligor, on behalf of itself and each other Releasor, acknowledge that each understands the significance and consequences of the waiver of the provisions of section 1542 and that each has been advised by its attorney as to the significance and consequences of this waiver.

(d) Borrower and each Obligor, if any, understand, acknowledge and agree that the release set forth above may be pleaded as a full and complete defense and may be used as a basis for an injunction against any action, suit or other proceeding that may be instituted, prosecuted or attempted in breach of the provisions of such release.

(e) Borrower and each Obligor, if any, agree that no fact, event, circumstance, evidence or transaction which could now be asserted or which may hereafter be discovered affects in any manner the final, absolute and unconditional nature of the release set forth above.

(f) Borrower and each Obligor, if any, on behalf of itself and its successors, assigns and other legal representatives, hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably, covenant and agree with and in favor of each Releasee that it will not sue (at law, in equity, in any regulatory proceeding or otherwise) any Releasee on the basis of any Claim released, remised and discharged by Borrower and each Obligor pursuant to Section 6 of this Agreement. If Borrower and each Obligor, if any, or any of its successors, assigns or other legal representations violates the foregoing covenant, Borrower and each Obligor, if any, for itself and each other Releasor, agree to pay, in addition to such other damages as any Releasee may sustain as a result of such violation, all reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred by any Releasee as a result of such violation.

7. Counterparts; Telefacsimile Execution. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Amendment. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Amendment by telefacsimile shall be equally as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Amendment by telefacsimile also shall deliver a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment but the failure to deliver a manually executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Amendment.

8. Integration. The Loan Agreement as amended by this Amendment constitutes the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and supersedes any and all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

9. No Waiver. The execution of this Amendment and the acceptance of all other agreements and instruments related hereto shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, whether or not known to Lender and whether or not existing on the date of this Amendment.

10. Reaffirmation of the Loan Agreement. The Loan Agreement as amended hereby is reaffirmed by Borrower and remains in full force and effect.

11. Expenses. Borrower shall be liable to reimburse Lender for all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and expenses) that Lender incurs in connection with the preparation, negotiation, and execution of this Amendment, including, without limitation, the reasonable costs and fees of outside legal counsel to Lender. Borrower hereby authorizes Lender to effect payment of all such fees and expenses by a loan or advance pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents.
