If this Agreement shall have been terminated prior to such Senior Priority Recovery, this Agreement shall be reinstated in full force and effect in the event of such Senior Priority Recovery, and such prior termination shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair, or otherwise affect the obligations of the Parties from such date of reinstatement.

No priority or right of any Senior Priority Secured Party shall at any time be prejudiced or impaired in any way by any act or failure to act on the part of any Borrower or any Guarantor or by the noncompliance by any Person with the terms, provisions, or covenants of any of the Senior Priority Documents, regardless of any knowledge thereof which any Senior Priority Secured Party may have.
