Effect of Agreement Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to require to the Trust to take any action contrary to its Declaration of Trust or its By-Laws or any applicable law, regulation or order to which it is subject or by which it is bound, or to relieve or deprive the Trustees of the Trust of their responsibility for and control of the conduct of the business and affairs of the Trust.
Continuing Effect of Agreement Except as amended by this Amendment, all provisions of the Agreement shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect. From and after the date of this Amendment, whenever the term "Agreement" appears in the Agreement, it shall mean the Agreement as amended by this Amendment.
Effect of Waiver or Consent A waiver or consent, express or implied, to or of any breach or default by any Person in the performance by that Person of its obligations with respect to the Company is not a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or default in the performance by that Person of the same or any other obligations of that Person with respect to the Company. Failure on the part of a Person to complain of any act of any Person or to declare any Person in default with respect to the Company, irrespective of how long that failure continues, does not constitute a waiver by that Person of its rights with respect to that default until the applicable statute-of-limitations period has run.
Effect of Settlement/Reservation of Rights The following shall apply: (a) This Settlement Agreement resolves the civil claims of CARB for the violations alleged in this Settlement Agreement. (b) CARB reserves, and this Settlement Agreement is without prejudice to, all claims, rights, and remedies against Pyrolites Firestarters with respect to all matters not expressly resolved in this Settlement Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Settlement Agreement, CARB reserves all claims, rights, and remedies, whether in law or equity, against Pyrolites Firestarters with respect to: (i) Noncompliance with or enforcement of any provision of this Settlement Agreement.

(v) Any criminal liability. (vi) Any claim(s) of any officer or agency of the United States or California, other than CARB. (c) In any subsequent administrative or judicial proceeding initiated by CARB for injunctive relief, civil penalties, or other appropriate relief relating to enforcement of the Settlement Agreement, Pyrolites Firestarters shall not assert, and may not maintain, any defense or claim based upon the principles of waiver, res judicata, collateral estoppel, issue preclusion, claim preclusion, claim-splitting, or other defenses based upon any contention that the claims raised by CARB in the subsequent proceeding were or should have been brought in the instant case. (d) This Settlement Agreement does not limit or affect the rights of Pyrolites Firestarters or of CARB against any third parties not covered by this Settlement Agreement, nor does it limit the rights of third parties not covered by this Settlement Agreement against Pyrolites Firestarters, except as otherwise provided by law. This Settlement Agreement shall not be construed to create rights in, or grant any cause of action to, any third party not covered by this Settlement Agreement. (e) This Settlement Agreement is not a permit, or a modification of any permit, under any federal, State, or local laws or regulations. Pyrolites Firestarters is responsible for achieving and maintaining compliance with all applicable federal, State, and local laws, regulations, and permits; Pyrolites Firestarters’ compliance with this Settlement Agreement shall not be a defense to any action commenced pursuant to any such laws, regulations, or permits. CARB does not, by its execution of this Settlement Agreement, warrant or aver in any manner that Pyrolites Firestarters’ compliance with any aspect of this Settlement Agreement will result in compliance with any provisions of federal, State, or local laws, regulations, or permits.
