In reliance upon the Borrower's representations and warranties contained in the Loan Documents (as defined below), and subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Bank agrees to grant a waiver as follows:
In reliance upon the Borrower's representations and warranties contained in the Loan Documents (as defined below), and subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Bank agrees to grant a waiver as follows:

2. Extent of Waiver. Except as expressly described above, this waiver shall not constitute (a) a modification or an alteration of any of the terms, conditions or covenants of the Agreement or any related documents, instruments and agreements (collectively as amended from time to time, the "Loan Documents"), all of which remain in full force and effect, or (b) a waiver, release or limitation upon the Bank's exercise of any of its rights and remedies thereunder, all of which are hereby expressly reserved. This waiver shall not relieve or release the Borrower or any guarantor in any way from any of its respective duties, obligations, covenants or agreements under the Agreement or the other Loan Documents or from the consequences of any Event of Default thereunder, except as expressly described above. This waiver shall not obligate the Bank, or be construed to require the Bank, to waive any other Event of Default or defaults, whether now existing or which may occur after the date of this waiver.
