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, each certify that it has read the following provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542:
A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.
(b) 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, understands and acknowledges that the significance and consequence of this waiver of California Civil Code Section 1542 is that even if it should eventually suffer additional damages arising out of the facts referred to above, it will not be able to make any claim for those damages. 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.
9. Reaffirmation of the Agreement. The Agreement as amended hereby remains in full force and effect.
