2. | Waiver of Existing Events of Default. Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, upon the effectiveness of this Amendment, Agent and Lenders hereby waive the Existing Events of Default; provided, however that such waiver shall in no way constitute a waiver of any other Defaults or Events of Default which may have occurred but which are not specifically referenced as the Existing Events of Default, nor shall this waiver obligate Agent or any Lender to provide any further waiver of any other Default or Event of Default (whether similar or dissimilar, including any further Default or Event of Default resulting from a failure to comply with the terms of the Loan Agreement, including without limitation the covenants set forth in Sections 2.5, 8.2(c), and 6.5(b) thereof).

Agent has not been advised by the Borrowers of the existence of, and is not otherwise aware of, any Defaults or Events of Default other than the Existing Events of Default, and the Borrowers have represented to Lender that no Default or Event of Default, other than the Existing Events of Default, has occurred and is continuing under any of the Loan Documents.
