Each Credit Party understands, acknowledges and agrees that the release set forth above may be pleaded as a full and complete defense and may be used as a basis for an injunction against any action, suit or other proceeding which may be instituted, prosecuted or attempted in breach of the provisions of such release.
(b)Each Credit Party, for itself and on behalf of its successors, assigns, and officers, directors, employees, agents and attorneys, and any Person acting for or on behalf of, or claiming through it, hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably, covenants and agrees with and in favor of each Releasee above that it will not sue (at law, in equity, in any regulatory proceeding or otherwise) any Releasee on the basis of any Claim released, remised and discharged by such Person pursuant to the above release.

To the extent that any terms or provisions of this Waiver conflict with those of the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the terms and provisions of this Waiver shall control.

(d)This Waiver is a Loan Document.
(e)Unless the context of this Waiver clearly requires otherwise, references to the plural include the singular, references to the singular include the plural, the terms “includes” and “including” are not limiting, and the term “or” has, except where otherwise indicated, the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase “and/or”.

Section, subsection, clause, schedule, and exhibit references herein are to this Waiver unless otherwise specified. Any reference in this Waiver to any agreement, instrument, or document shall include all alterations, amendments, changes, extensions, modifications, renewals, replacements, substitutions, joinders, and supplements, thereto and thereof, as applicable (subject to any restrictions on such alterations, amendments, changes, extensions, modifications, renewals, replacements, substitutions, joinders, and supplements set forth herein).
13.Entire Agreement. This Waiver, and the terms and provisions hereof, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire understanding and agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all prior or contemporaneous amendments or understandings with respect to the subject matter hereof, whether express or implied, oral or written.
14.Integration. This Waiver, together with the other Loan Documents, incorporates all negotiations of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and is the final expression and agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.

16.Ratification. Each Credit Party hereby restates, ratifies and reaffirms each and every term and condition set forth in the Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents, as amended by this Waiver, effective as of the date hereof and as modified hereby.
17.Severability. In case any provision in this Waiver shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such provision shall be severable from the remainder of this Waiver and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
