10. Release.

10.1 Borrower acknowledges that Bank would not enter into this Agreement, without Borrower’s assurance hereunder. Except for the obligations arising hereafter under the Agreement, Borrower hereby absolutely discharges and releases Bank, any person or entity that has obtained any interest from Bank under the Agreement and each of Bank’s and such entity’s former and present partners, stockholders, officers, directors, employees, successors, assignees, agents and attorneys from any known or unknown claims which Borrower now has against Bank of any nature, including any claims that Borrower, its successors, counsel, and advisors may in the future discover they would have now had if they had known facts not now known to them, whether founded in contract, in tort or pursuant to any other theory of liability, including but not limited to any claims arising out of or related to the Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby.

10.2 Borrower waives the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542, which states:

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.

10.3 The provisions, waivers and releases set forth in this section are binding upon Borrower and Borrower’s shareholders, agents, employees, assigns and successors in interest. The provisions, waivers and releases of this section shall inure to the benefit of Bank and its agents, employees, officers, directors, assigns and successors in interest.

10.4 Borrower warrants and represents that Borrower is the sole and lawful owner of all right, title and interest in and to all of the claims released hereby and Borrower has not heretofore voluntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, assigned or transferred or purported to assign or transfer to any person any such claim or any portion thereof. Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless Bank from and against any claim, demand, damage, debt, liability (including payment of attorneys’ fees and costs actually incurred whether or not litigation is commenced) based on or arising out of any assignment or transfer.

10.5 The provisions of this section shall survive payment in full of the Obligations, full performance of all the terms of this Amendment and the Agreement, and/or Bank’s actions to exercise any remedy available under the Agreement or otherwise.

11. No course of dealing on the part of Bank or its officers, nor any failure or delay in the exercise of any right by Bank, shall operate as a waiver thereof, and any single or partial exercise of any such right shall not preclude any later exercise of any such right. Bank’s failure at any time to require strict performance by Borrower of any provision shall not affect any right of Bank thereafter to demand strict compliance and performance. Any suspension or waiver of a right must be in writing signed by an officer of Bank.

12. Unless otherwise defined, all initially capitalized terms in this Amendment shall be as defined in the Agreement. The Agreement, as amended hereby, shall be and remain in full force and effect in accordance with its respective terms and hereby is ratified and confirmed in all respects. Except as expressly set forth herein, the execution, delivery, and performance of this Amendment shall not operate as a waiver of, or as an amendment of, any right, power, or remedy of Bank under the Agreement, as in effect prior to the date hereof.

-3-

13. Borrower represents and warrants that the Representations and Warranties contained in the Agreement are true and correct in all material respects as of the date of this Amendment (except for any Representations and Warranties which expressly refer to an earlier date or time period, which shall be true and correct as of such date or with respect to such time period), and that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

14. Borrower shall pay or reimburse Bank for all reasonable Bank Expenses incurred through the date of this Amendment, which may be debited from any of Borrower’s accounts.

15. As a condition to the effectiveness of this Amendment, Bank shall have received, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Bank, the following:

(a) this Amendment, duly executed by Borrower;

(b) an Affirmation of Subordination Agreement, duly executed by Trinity;

(c) a Certificate of the Secretary of Borrower with respect to incumbency and resolutions authorizing the execution and delivery of this Amendment;

(d) Borrower’s payment to bank of the Twelfth Amendment Fee, which may be debited from any of Borrower’s accounts; and

(e) such other documents, and completion of such other matters, as Bank may reasonably deem necessary or appropriate.

16. This Amendment may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument.
