exercise of any right, power, or privilege available to Lender whether under the Agreement, the
other Loan Documents or otherwise, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of the Agreement or any
other Loan Document or any other documents, instruments and agreements executed or delivered in

participated in the negotiation and drafting of this Amendment and the Loan Documents and that,
accordingly, no party shall move or petition a court construing this Amendment or the Loan
Documents to construe them more stringently against one party than against any other.
Section 10. Jury Trial. EACH PARTY TO THIS AMENDMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT
TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR IN ANY WAY
CONNECTED WITH OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR

OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS

for convenience and reference only and do not constitute and shall not be interpreted as part of
this Amendment and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Amendment. This
Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute

restated, waived, supplemented, discharged, canceled or terminated orally or by any course of
dealing or in any other manner other than by the written agreement of Lender and Borrower. This
Amendment shall be considered part of the Agreement for all purposes under the Agreement.

Documents constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter

or subsequent oral agreements between the parties. There are no unwritten oral agreements between

Amendment without the prior written consent of Lender. No rights are intended to be created under
this Amendment for the benefit of any third party donee, creditor or incidental beneficiary of
