(a)Effective on the execution of this Second Amendment, Borrower and Released Trinity Guarantor, on their own behalf and on behalf of each of their respective past, present and future predecessors, successors, subsidiaries, parent entities, assigns, shareholders, partners, members, owners, other principals, affiliates, managers, and, with respect to Borrower and Released Trinity Guarantor and each of the other foregoing entities and individuals, each of their respective predecessors, successors, assigns, and past and present shareholders, partners, members, owners, other principals, affiliates, managers, employees, officers, directors, attorneys, agents, other representatives, insurers and any other individuals and entities claiming or acting by, through, under or in concert with Borrower or Released Trinity Guarantor (collectively, the “Borrower Party Releasors”), hereby fully and forever release, relinquish, discharge and acquit

-15-


Administrative Agent, Lender and their respective past, present, and future predecessors, successors, subsidiaries, parent entities, assigns, participants, shareholders, partners, members, owners, other principals, affiliates, managers, and, with respect to each of the foregoing entities and individuals, each of their respective predecessors, successors, assigns, participants and past and present shareholders, partners, members, owners, other principals, affiliates, managers, employees, officers, directors, attorneys, agents, other representatives, insurers and any other individuals and/or entities claiming or acting by, through, under or in concert with each such entity or individual (collectively, the “Lender Party Releasees”), of and from and against any and all claims, demands, obligations, duties, liabilities, damages (including, without limitation, special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages), expenses, claims of offset, indebtedness, debts, breaches of contract, duty or relationship, acts, omissions, misfeasance, malfeasance, causes of action, sums of money, accounts, compensation, contracts, controversies, promises, damages, costs, losses and remedies therefor, choses in action, rights of indemnity or liability of any type, kind, nature, description or character whatsoever, arising, directly or indirectly, in any manner from and/or out of (i) the Loan, the Loan Documents and/or the Collateral, (ii) Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s acts, statements, conduct, representations and omissions made in connection therewith, including, without limitation, the disbursement of funds or any election of Administrative Agent or Lender to refrain from any such disbursements, and the negotiation of this Second Amendment, and (iii) any fact, matter, transaction or event relating thereto, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, whether now existing or hereafter arising, which could, might or may be claimed to exist, whether liquidated or unliquidated, each though fully set forth herein at length; provided, however, that the foregoing release, relinquishment, discharge and acquittal shall not apply to any future breach of any of the obligations, covenants or agreements of any of the Lender Party Releasees that are expressly set forth in this Second Amendment or to any other matters first arising after the Second Amendment Effective Date.

(b)With respect to the claims released pursuant to Section 9(a) hereof, Borrower Party Releasors hereby waive the provisions of any applicable laws restricting the release of claims which the releasing parties do not know or suspect to exist at the time of release, which, if known, would have materially affected the decision to agree to these releases.  In this connection, Borrower Party Releasors hereby agree, represent and warrant to Administrative Agent and Lender that they realize and acknowledge that factual matters now unknown may have given or may hereafter give rise to causes of action, claims, demands, debts, controversies, damages, costs, losses and expenses which are presently unknown, unanticipated and unsuspected, and Borrower Party Releasors further agree, represent and warrant that the releases provided herein have been negotiated and agreed upon in light of that realization and that, to the extent set forth in Section 9(a) hereof, Borrower Party Releasors nevertheless hereby intend to release, discharge and acquit the parties set forth hereinabove from any such unknown causes of action, claims, demands, debts, controversies, damages, costs, losses and expenses which are in any manner set forth in or related to the Loan and all dealings in connection therewith.

(c)Borrower Party Releasors hereby acknowledge that they have not relied upon any representation of any kind made by Administrative Agent, Lender or any Affiliate of Administrative Agent or Lender in making the foregoing release.

-16-


(d)Borrower Party Releasors represent and warrant to Administrative Agent and Lender that they have not heretofore assigned or transferred, or purported to assign or to transfer, to any person or entity any matter released by such party hereunder or any portion thereof or interest therein, and each Borrower Party Releasor agrees to indemnify, protect, defend and hold each of the Lender Party Releasees harmless from and against any and all claims based on or arising out of any such assignment or transfer or purported assignment or transfer by such party.

11.Counterparts.  This Second Amendment may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which is to be deemed original for all purposes, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

12.Exculpation.  Section 13.1 of the Original Loan Agreement is hereby incorporated in this Second Amendment by reference.

13.Incorporation by Reference.  To the extent that any provisions or defined terms contained in any other Loan Document are used herein or incorporated herein by reference, and such other Loan Document is terminated or otherwise satisfied prior to the termination of this Agreement, then, for the avoidance of doubt, such provisions and/or defined terms shall survive until the payment in full of all of the Obligations under each Loan Document without regard to the fact that the Loan Document originally containing the same has been otherwise terminated or satisfied.

14.Miscellaneous.  The headings used in this Second Amendment are for convenience only and shall be disregarded in interpreting the substantive provisions of this Second Amendment.  Time is of the essence of each term of the Loan Documents, including this Second Amendment. If any provision of this Second Amendment or any of the other Loan Documents shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that portion shall be deemed severed from this Second Amendment and the remaining parts shall remain in full force as though the invalid, illegal, or unenforceable portion had never been a part thereof.  The Loan Documents (as modified by this Second Amendment), including this Second Amendment, contain or expressly incorporate by reference the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the matters contemplated therein and supersede all prior negotiations or agreements, written or oral.  The Loan Documents (as modified by this Second Amendment) shall not be modified except by written instrument executed by all parties. Any future reference to the Loan Documents shall include any amendments, renewals or extensions now or hereafter approved by Lender in writing.

15.GOVERNING LAW.  Section 14.19 of the Original Loan Agreement is hereby incorporated in this Second Amendment by reference.

16.TRIAL BY JURY.  Section 14.18 of the Original Loan is hereby incorporated in this Second Amendment by reference.
