In entering into this Agreement, the Borrower consulted with, and has been represented by, legal counsel and expressly disclaims any reliance on any representations, actions or omissions by any of the Releasees and hereby agrees and acknowledges that the validity and effectiveness of the releases set forth above do not depend in any way on any such representations, acts and/or omissions or the accuracy, completeness or validity hereof.
