Furthermore, each Borrower, each Guarantor signing an Acknowledgment and Agreement of Guarantor set forth below, and each Subordinate Creditor signing the Acknowledgment and Agreement of each Subordinate Creditor set forth below, acknowledges that it intends these consequences even as to claims for damages that may exist as of the date of this release but which it does not know exist, and which, if known, would materially affect its decision to execute this Agreement, regardless of whether its lack of knowledge is the result of ignorance, oversight, error, negligence, or any other cause.

 

12.     Reaffirmation of the Agreement. The Agreement as amended hereby remains in full force and effect.
