Seller has also agreed to take certain actions with respect to the surrender, release or discharge of certain other items, as provided in the APA.

The representations, warranties and covenants set forth in the APA have been made only for purposes of the APA and solely for the benefit of the parties thereto, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the APA instead of establishing these matters as facts.
