7.Additional Acknowledgments. The Borrower expressly acknowledges and agrees that the waivers, estoppels and releases in favor of the Administrative Agent and each Lender contained in this Agreement shall not be construed as an admission of any wrongdoing, liability or culpability on the part of the Administrative Agent or any such Lender, or as an admission by the Administrative Agent or any such Lender of the existence of any claims by the Borrower against the Administrative Agent or any such Lender.
