b.As to the matters released herein, Borrower and Guarantor expressly waive any and all rights under Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California, which provides as follows:

3784086.2

“A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.”

c.Borrower and Guarantor expressly waive and release any right or benefit which they have or may have under Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California, and any similar law of any state, territory, commonwealth or possession of the United States, or the United States, to the full extent that they may waive all such rights and benefits pertaining to the matters released herein. In connection with such waiver and relinquishment, Borrower and Guarantor acknowledge that they are aware that they may hereafter discover claims presently unknown or unsuspected, or facts in addition to or different from those which they now know or believe to be true. Nevertheless, it is the intention of Borrower and Guarantor, through this Modification, to fully, finally and forever release all such matters, and all claims relative thereto, which do now exist, may exist, or heretofore have existed. In furtherance of such intention, the release herein given shall be and remain in effect as a full and complete release of such matters notwithstanding the discovery or existence of any such additional or different claims or facts relative thereto.

d.Borrower and Guarantor are the sole and lawful owners of all right, title and interest in and to every claim and other matter which they purport to release herein, and they have not heretofore assigned or transferred, or purported to assign or transfer to any person or any entity claims or other matters herein released. Borrower and Guarantor shall indemnify, defend and hold Lender and each of the other Released Parties, and each of them, harmless from and against any claims, liabilities, actions, causes of action, demands, injuries, costs, and expenses (including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees), based upon or arising in connection with any such prior assignment or transfer, or any such purported assignment or transfer, or any claims or other matters released herein.

11.Revival of Obligation.

a.Borrower and Guarantor acknowledge and agree that in the event that the payment of money, this Modification, or the grant of collateral should for any reason subsequently be declared to be “fraudulent” within the meaning of any state, federal or foreign law relating to fraudulent conveyances, preferential or otherwise voidable or recoverable, in whole or in part, for any reason, under the United States Bankruptcy Code or any other federal, foreign or state law (collectively referred to herein as “Voidable Transfer”), and Lender is required to pay or restore any such Voidable Transfer, or any portion thereof, then as to that which is repaid or restored pursuant to any such Voidable Transfer (including all costs, expenses and attorneys’ fees of Lender related thereto, including, without limitation, relief from stay or similar proceedings), the liability of Borrower and Guarantor shall automatically be revived, reinstated and restored to the extent thereof, and shall exist as though such Voidable Transfer had never been made to Lender.

b.Nothing set forth herein is an admission that such Voidable Transfer has occurred. Borrower and Guarantor expressly acknowledge that Lender may rely upon advice of counsel, and if so advised by counsel, may, in the exercise of Lender’s sole opinion and

3784086.2

judgment, settle, without defending, any action to void any alleged Voidable Transfer, and that upon such settlement, Borrower and Guarantor shall again be liable for any deficiency resulting from such settlement as provided in this Modification.

c.As an additional inducement to and material consideration for Lender agreeing to the modifications provided in this Modification, agrees that in the event a Bankruptcy or Judicial Action (as hereinafter defined in this Section 11) is commenced which subjects Lender to any stay in the exercise of Lender’s rights and remedies under the Loan Documents including, but not limited to, the automatic stay imposed by Section 362 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (individually and collectively, “Stay”), then Borrower and Guarantor irrevocably consent and agree that such Stay shall automatically be lifted and released against Lender, and Lender shall thereafter be entitled to exercise all of its rights and remedies against Borrower and/or Guarantor under the Loan Documents, subject, however, to the terms and conditions of this Modification. Borrower and Guarantor acknowledge that they are knowingly, voluntarily, and intentionally waiving their rights to any Stay and agree that the benefits provided to Borrower and Guarantor under the terms of this Modification are valuable consideration for such waiver. As used in this Section 11, the term “Bankruptcy or Judicial Action” shall mean any voluntary or involuntary case filed by or against Borrower and/or Guarantor, under the United States Bankruptcy Code, or any voluntary or involuntary petition in composition, readjustment, liquidation, or dissolution, or any state and federal bankruptcy law action filed by or against Borrower and/or Guarantor, any action where Borrower and/or Guarantor are adjudicated as bankrupt or insolvent, any action for dissolution of Borrower and/or Guarantor, or any action in furtherance of any of the foregoing, or any other action, case, or proceeding that has the effect of staying (or in which a stay is being obtained against) the enforcement by Lender of its rights and remedies under this Modification, or any of the Loan Documents.

12.No Joint Venture, Management and Control. Notwithstanding any provision of this Modification and/or of the Loan Documents:

a.Lender is not and shall not be construed to be a partner, joint venture, alter ego, manager, controlling person or other business associate or participant of any kind of Borrower, Guarantor or any other person;

b.Lender shall not be deemed responsible to perform or participate in any acts, omissions, or decisions of Borrower or Guarantor; and;

c.Borrower and Guarantor do not have any claims, causes of action or defenses to their obligations to Lender based on any allegations of management or control exercised by Lender. Borrower and Guarantor acknowledge and agree that Lender does not manage or control them in any way.

13.Miscellaneous.

a.Section headings used in this Modification are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction of this Modification.

3784086.2

b.This Modification may be executed in one or more counterparts but all of the counterparts shall constitute one agreement; provided, however, this Modification shall not be effective and enforceable unless and until it is executed by all parties hereto.

c.This Modification and the other documents and instruments executed in connection therewith constitute the product of the negotiation of the parties hereto and the enforcement hereof shall be interpreted in a neutral manner, and not more strongly for or against any party based upon the source of the draftsmanship hereof.

d.This Modification is not a novation, nor, except as expressly provided in this Modification, is it to be construed as a release or modification of any of the terms, conditions, warranties, waivers or rights set forth in the Loan Documents. Nothing contained in this Modification shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by Lender of any required performance by Borrower or Guarantor, of any default heretofore or hereafter occurring under or in connection with the other Loan Documents. In the event there is a conflict in any term, condition or provision of this Modification, on the one hand, and the Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, on the other hand, the terms, conditions and provisions of this Modification are to control.

e.Borrower and Guarantor hereby further represent and warrant as follows:

(1)Borrower and Guarantor have received, or have had the opportunity to receive, independent legal advice from attorneys of each of their choice with respect to the advisability of executing this Modification and prior to the execution of this Modification by Borrower and Guarantor, their attorneys reviewed this Modification and discussed this Modification with them and have made all desired changes;

(2)Except as expressly stated in this Modification, neither Lender nor any other person or entity has made any statement or representation to Borrower or Guarantor regarding facts relied upon by Borrower or Guarantor;

(3)Borrower and Guarantor do not rely upon any statement, representation or promise of Lender or any other person or entity in executing this Modification except as expressly stated in this Modification;

(4)The terms of this Modification are contractual and not a mere

recital;

(5)This Modification has been carefully read by, the contents hereof

are known and understood by, and it is signed freely by Borrower; and

(6)This Modification and the releases contained herein are intended to be final and binding against Borrower and Guarantor, and Borrower and Guarantor acknowledge that Lender is expressly relying on the finality of this Modification as a substantial, material factor inducing Lender’s execution of this Modification.

f.JUDICIAL REFERENCE – The parties hereby agree that any claims, controversies, disputes, or questions of interpretation, whether legal or equitable, arising out of,

3784086.2

concerning or related to this Modification and all loan documents executed by Borrower and Guarantor shall be heard by a single referee by consensual general judicial reference pursuant to the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 638 et seq., who shall determine all issues of fact or law and to report a statement of decision. The referee shall also have the power to hear and determine proceedings for ancillary relief, including, but not limited to, applications for attachment, issuance of injunctive relief, appointment of a receiver, and/or claim and delivery. The costs of the proceeding shall be borne equally by the parties to the dispute, subject to the discretion of the referee to allocate such costs based on a determination as to the prevailing party(ies) in the proceeding. By initialing below the parties acknowledge that they have read and understand the foregoing Judicial Reference provisions and understand that they are waiving their right to a jury trial.
