The Subject Waiver shall not in any manner create a course of dealing or otherwise impair the future ability of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to declare a Default or Event of Default under or otherwise enforce the terms of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document with respect to any matter other than those specifically and expressly waived in the Subject Waiver.

Parent and (ii) the contribution by the Borrower or one of its Subsidiaries to Eureka Hunter Pipeline J.V. of the Eureka Hunter Pipeline and the assets related thereto and (b) agree that the contribution of the Eureka Hunter Pipeline and the assets related thereto as contemplated above shall not be deemed a default of the provisions of Section 9.05 or Section 9.11 or any other Section of the Credit Agreement and shall be disregarded when determining compliance with any dollar amount limitations contained in any exceptions to the restrictions contained in Section 9.05 and Section 9.11; provided, that it shall be a condition precedent to the effectiveness of the consent and agreement contained in this sentence that the Administrative Agent shall have received the proposed joint venture agreement pertaining to Eureka Hunter Pipeline J.V. and any other documents related thereto that the Administrative Agent shall request, which such agreement and other documents shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
