one and the same instrument.


 


12.         Entire
Agreement. This Amendment, together with the other Loan Documents, sets forth the entire agreement of the parties with
respect to the subject matter of this Amendment and supersedes all previous understandings, written or oral, in respect of this
Amendment.
