1.3 Acceptance of Appointment by Successor Agent.
(a) Acceptance of Appointment by Successor Agent. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Article V, Successor Agent hereby accepts its appointment as Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer and Swingline Lender under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and shall hereby (i) succeed to and, from and after the Resignation Effective Date, be vested with all the rights, powers, privileges, duties and protections of Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer and Swingline Lender under the Credit Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents, in each case with like effect as if Successor Agent were originally named as Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer and Swingline Lender under the Credit Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents and (ii) issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding on the Resignation Effective Date or make other arrangements satisfactory to Resigning L/C Issuer to effectively assume the obligations of Resigning L/C Issuer with respect to such Letters of Credit.

1.4 Bailee; Perfection and Assignment Documents.
(a) Bailee. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Resigning Administrative Agent shall continue to hold collateral security on behalf of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer pursuant to the Loan Documents until such time as the Perfection and Assignment Documents (defined below), including those set forth on Schedule II hereto, have been executed, delivered and, as applicable, recorded, in each case as reasonably determined by Successor Agent (the “Perfection Effective Date”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any and all references to “Bank of America” on any publicly filed document, to the extent such filing relates to liens and security interests assigned to the Successor Agent hereby and until the Perfection Date, with respect to such liens and security interests, constitute a reference to “Bank of America” as the nominee and collateral representative of SVB, as Successor Agent. Successor Agent hereby appoints Resigning Administrative Agent as its agent solely for the purpose of perfecting and continuing the perfection of Successor Agent’s liens in that part of the Collateral that is in the possession or control of Resigning Administrative Agent (or in the possession or control of its agents or bailees), or is the subject of any perfection instruments in favor of Resigning Administrative Agent or other agreements or documents pertaining to the Collateral in favor of Resigning Administrative Agent (such Collateral, the “Pledged Collateral”) until the Perfection Effective Date. Resigning Administrative Agent hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to serve as perfection agent solely for the purpose of perfecting and continuing the perfection of Successor Agent’s liens in such Pledged Collateral until the Perfection Effective Date. It is understood that Resigning Administrative Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities under this Section 1.4 to Successor Agent, any Lender or any Loan Party except as is expressly otherwise provided herein. All of such liens and security interests in the Pledged Collateral shall in all respects be continuing and in effect following execution and delivery of this Agreement and are hereby ratified and reaffirmed by the Loan Parties.
(b) Perfection and Assignment Documents. Resigning Administrative Agent shall (i) (A) execute and deliver such instruments as may be prepared by Successor Agent and are in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Resigning Administrative Agent, and (B) do such other things as Successor Agent may reasonably request, in each case, so as to more fully and certainly vest and confirm upon Successor Agent the rights, powers, privileges, obligations, duties and protections described in Section 1.3 and (ii) (A) assign or otherwise transfer to Successor Agent all (1) UCC financing statements and (2) other perfection documentation (including, without limitation, an assignment of record of all publicly recorded perfection instruments), in each case, (x) with respect to liens encumbering the Pledged Collateral securing the Obligations and (y) pursuant to such instruments as may be prepared by Successor Agent in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Resigning Administrative Agent and (B) physically deliver to Successor Agent all possessory Pledged Collateral, if any, held by Resigning Administrative Agent with respect to liens encumbering the Pledged Collateral securing the Obligations. All of the instruments and documentation described in this Section 1.4 (collectively, the “Perfection and Assignment Documents”) shall be prepared and (if applicable) recorded publicly, at the sole cost and expense of the Loan Parties. Each Loan Party agrees (i) to promptly take such action, upon the reasonable request of Successor Agent, as is necessary to carry out the intent of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the execution and delivery of any Perfection and Assignment Document, and (ii) that Successor Agent shall receive from Borrower all costs and expenses of Successor Agent invoiced as of the date hereof in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, filing and/or recordation of this Agreement and the Perfection and Assignment Documents.

ARTICLE II
WAIVER
Each Loan Party, its respective successors-in-title, legal representatives and assignees and, to the extent the same is claimed by right of, through or under such Loan Party, for their respective past, present and future employees, agents, representatives, officers, directors, shareholders, and trustees, do hereby and shall be deemed to have forever remised, released and discharged Resigning Agent, its Affiliates, and any of the successors-in-title, legal representatives and assignees, past, present and future officers, directors, shareholders, trustees, agents, employees, consultants, experts, advisors, attorneys and other professionals and all other persons and entities to whom Resigning Agent, or any of its Affiliates would be liable if such persons or entities were found to be liable to any Loan Party, (collectively hereinafter the “Resigning Agent Parties”), from any and all manner of action and actions, cause and causes of action, claims, charges, demands, counterclaims, suits, debts, dues, sums of money, accounts, reckonings, bonds, bills, specialties, covenants, contracts, controversies, damages, judgments, expenses, executions, liens, claims of liens, claims of costs, penalties, attorneys’ fees, or any other compensation, recovery or relief on account of any liability, obligation, demand or cause of action of whatever nature, whether in law, equity or otherwise (including without limitation those arising under 11 U.S.C. §§ 541-550 and interest or other carrying costs, penalties, legal, accounting and other professional fees and expenses, and incidental, consequential and punitive damages payable to third parties), whether known or unknown, fixed or contingent, joint and/or several, secured or unsecured, due or not due, primary or secondary, liquidated or unliquidated, contractual or tortious, direct, indirect, or derivative, asserted or unasserted, foreseen or unforeseen, suspected or unsuspected, now existing, heretofore existing or which may heretofore accrue against any of the Resigning Agent Parties, whether held in a personal or representative capacity, and which are based on any act, fact, event or omission or other matter, cause or thing occurring at or from any time prior to and including the Resignation Effective Date in any way, directly or indirectly arising out of, connected with or relating to any of the Loan Documents, and the transactions contemplated thereby, and all other agreements, certificates, instruments and other documents and statements (whether written or oral) related to any of the foregoing.
Except for the obligations, assignments and agreements set forth herein, each Loan Party hereby warrants, represents and agrees that they are fully aware of the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542, which provides as follows:
“A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.”
Each Loan Party hereby agrees that California Civil Code Section 1542 is expressly incorporated into this Agreement and thereupon voluntarily waives the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542, and any other similar law, as to any and all claims, demands, causes of action, or charges, known or unknown, and further agrees that this waiver is a material aspect of the consideration for entering into this Agreement.
Each Loan Party hereby knowingly, voluntarily, intentionally and expressly waives and relinquishes any and all rights and benefits that it may have under any provision of any jurisdiction that provides that a general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in the creditor’s favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by the creditor must have materially affected the creditor’s settlement with the debtor, or any law of the any state or territory of the United States or any foreign country or principle of common law that is similar or analogous. Each Loan Party hereby agrees and acknowledges that the foregoing waiver was separately bargained for. This waiver is an essential term of this Agreement, without which Resigning Agent would not have agreed to execute this Agreement. The release contained herein and the related provisions shall survive the termination of the Credit Agreement and payment in full of the Obligations.
