Loan Documents, as well as under applicable law. No failure to exercise, delay in exercising or any singular or partial exercise, by the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or any of the Lenders of any right, power or remedy hereunder or any of the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof or in the case of a singular or partial exercise of a right, power or remedy, preclude any other or further exercise thereof of any other right, power or remedy, nor shall any of the Loan Documents be construed as a standstill or a forbearance by any of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or the Lenders of their rights and remedies thereunder.
