 (e) This Third Amendment represents the entire agreement among the parties
hereto relating to this Third Amendment, and supersedes all prior understandings and agreements among the parties relating to the subject matter of this Third Amendment. 
  
 (f) The Borrower and each Guarantor represents and warrants that neither the execution, delivery or performance by the
