6. Release And Waiver.
(a) Each Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that: (1) it has no
claim or cause of action against Bank or any parent, subsidiary or affiliate of
Bank, or any of Bank's officers, directors, employees, attorneys or other

any Borrower to have any claim, cause of action, offset or defense against Bank
or any of Bank's Agents in connection with the Loan Documents, the loans
thereunder or the transactions contemplated therein, Bank wishes and each
Borrower agrees to eliminate any possibility that any past conditions, acts,
omissions, events, circumstances or matters could impair or otherwise affect any
rights, interests, contracts or remedies of Bank. Therefore, each Borrower
unconditionally releases and waives (1) any and all liabilities, indebtedness
and obligations, whether known or unknown, of any kind of Bank or of any of
Bank's Agents to such Borrower, except the obligations remaining to be performed
by Bank as expressly stated in the Loan Agreement, this Third Amendment and the
other Loan Documents executed by Bank; (2) any legal, equitable or other
obligations or duties, whether known or unknown, of Bank or of any of Bank's
Agents to any Borrower (and any rights of such Borrower against Bank) besides
those expressly stated in the Loan Agreement, this Third Amendment and the other
Loan Documents; (3) any and all claims under any oral or implied agreement,
obligation or understanding with Bank or any of Bank's Agents, whether known or
unknown, which is different from or in addition to the express terms of the Loan
Agreement, this Third Amendment or any of the other Loan Documents; and (4) all
other claims, causes of action or defenses of any kind whatsoever (if any),
whether known or unknown, which any Borrower might otherwise have against Bank
or any Bank's Agents, on account of any condition, act, omission, event,
contract, liability, obligation indebtedness, claim, cause of action, defense,
circumstance or matter of any kind whatsoever which existed, arose or occurred
at any time prior to the execution and delivery of this Third Amendment or which
could arise concurrently with the effectiveness of this Third Amendment.
(c) Each Borrower agrees that it understands the meaning and effect
of Section 1542 of the California Civil Code, which provides:
Section 1542. Certain Claims Not Affected by General
Release. A general release does not extend to claims
that the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in
his favor at the time of executing the release, which
if known by him must have materially affected his
settlement with the debtor.
EACH BORROWER AGREES TO ASSUME THE RISK OF ANY AND ALL UNKNOWN, UNANTICIPATED OR
MISUNDERSTOOD DEFENSES, CLAIMS, CAUSES OF ACTION, CONTRACTS, LIABILITIES,
INDEBTEDNESS AND OBLIGATIONS WHICH ARE RELEASED BY THIS THIRD AMENDMENT IN FAVOR
OF BANK AND BANK'S
AGENTS, AND EACH BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES AND RELEASES ALL RIGHTS AND BENEFITS
WHICH IT MIGHT OTHERWISE HAVE UNDER THE AFOREMENTIONED SECTION 1542 OF THE
CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE WITH REGARD TO THE RELEASE OF SUCH UNKNOWN, UNANTICIPATED
OR MISUNDERSTOOD DEFENSES, CLAIMS, CAUSES OF ACTION, CONTRACTS, LIABILITIES,
INDEBTEDNESS AND OBLIGATIONS. TO THE EXTENT (IF ANY) WHICH ANY SUCH LAWS MAY BE
APPLICABLE, EACH BORROWER WAIVES AND RELEASES (TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED
BY LAW) ANY RIGHT OR DEFENSE WHICH IT MIGHT OTHERWISE HAVE UNDER ANY OTHER LAW
OF ANY APPLICABLE JURISDICTION WHICH MIGHT LIMIT OR RESTRICT THE EFFECTIVENESS
OR SCOPE OF ANY OF ITS WAIVERS OR RELEASES UNDER THIS THIRD AMENDMENT.

expressly provided in this Third Amendment, the terms and conditions of the Loan
Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect.

entire agreement of the parties hereto and supersede any and all prior

entire agreement of the parties thereto and supersede any and all prior
