enforceability of all or any portion of the liens or security
interests granted thereby: (ii) any change in the time, manner or
place of payment of, or in any other term in respect of, all or
any of the obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or
consent to any departure from, exchange or release of, or non-

Bank in reliance on such payment.
SECTION 4. Waivers. Each Guarantor hereby waives
