Documents; (3) any and all claims under any oral or implied agreement,

(c) Each Borrower agrees that it understands the meaning and effect
of Section 1542 of the California Civil Code, which provides:
Section 1542. Certain Claims Not Affected by General
Release. A general release does not extend to claims that
the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his
favor at the time of executing the release, which if
known by him must have materially affected his settlement
with the debtor.

MISUNDERSTOOD DEFENSES, CLAIMS, CAUSES OF ACTION, CONTRACTS, LIABILITIES,
INDEBTEDNESS AND OBLIGATIONS WHICH ARE RELEASED BY THIS FIRST AMENDMENT IN FAVOR
