The Debtor may rely upon any such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Agent as being the decision, act, consent or instruction of every Secured Party.  The Debtor is hereby relieved from any liability to any of the Secured Parties for any acts done by the Debtor in connection or in accordance with any such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Agent.  

8.
