discharge of air pollutants, water pollutants or process waste water or otherwise relating to the environment or Hazardous Substances as hereinafter defined, whether such laws currently exist or are enacted in the future (collectively “Environmental Laws”).

The requirement of providing timely notice to the Bank represents the parties’ agreed-to standard of performance regarding claims against the Bank. Notwithstanding any claim that the Borrower may have against the Bank, and regardless of any notice the Borrower may have given the Bank, the Bank will not be liable to the Borrower for consequential and/or special damages arising therefrom, except those damages arising from the Bank’s willful misconduct.
