every kind and nature, both in law and in equity, known or unknown, whether
heretofore or now existing, liquidated or unliquidated, matured or unmatured,
fixed or contingent (collectively, the "Release Claims"), which might be
asserted against any of the Released Parties. This Release applies to all
matters arising out of or relating to the Loan Documents, the Supplemental Term
Loan Warrant, any Property of any Borrower, any Guarantor, Xxxxx, the Xxxxx

collateralization and funding thereof. Each of Parent and each of its
Subsidiaries further agrees not to bring any action in any judicial,
administrative or other proceeding against the Released Parties, or any of
them, alleging any such Release Claim or otherwise arising in connection with
any such Release Claim. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
Parent and its Subsidiaries release any claims they may have for any
overpayment of interest or Rent prior to the date hereof, and agree that any
such claim shall be deemed a Release Claim for the purpose of this Amendment.

disclosed. In this connection, each of Parent and each of its Subsidiaries
hereby agrees, represents and warrants that it realizes and acknowledges that
factual matters now existing and unknown to it may have given or may hereafter
give rise to Release Claims, which are presently unknown, unsuspected,
unliquidated, unmatured and/or contingent, and it further agrees, represents
and warrants that this release has been negotiated and agreed upon in view of
that realization. Nevertheless, Parent and its Subsidiaries hereby intend to
release, discharge and acquit the Released Parties of and from any such
unknown, unsuspected, unliquidated, unmatured and/or contingent Release Claims,
which are in any way set forth in or related to the matters identified above in
this Section 6. Parent and its Subsidiaries hereby explicitly waive the
benefits of any common law or statutory rule with respect to the release of
such Release Claims.
6.3 The acceptance and delivery of this Amendment by the Agent
and the Requisite Lenders on behalf of the Released Parties shall not be deemed
or construed as an admission of liability with respect to the Release Claims or
otherwise by the Released Parties, or any of them, and the Released Parties
hereby expressly deny liability of any nature whatsoever arising from or
related to the subject of the release contained in this Section 6.
6.4 Each of Parent and each of its Subsidiaries hereby agrees,
represents and warrants that: (i) such party has not voluntarily, by operation
of law or otherwise, assigned, conveyed, transferred or encumbered, either
directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, any right to or interest in any of
the Release Claims purported to be released by this Section 6; (ii) such party
has had advice of counsel of its own choosing in negotiations for and the
preparation of this
10
Amendment; and (iii) such party is fully aware of the effect of releases such
as that contained in this Section 6.

counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to
be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the
same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Amendment by
telecopier shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of
this Amendment.
