6.03 Acknowledgment of the Obligors. Each Obligor hereby represents and warrants that the execution and delivery of this Amendment and compliance by such Obligor with all of the provisions of this Amendment: (i) are within the powers and purposes of such Obligor; (ii) have been duly authorized or approved by the board of directors (or other appropriate governing body) of such Obligor; and (iii) when executed and delivered by or on behalf of such Obligor will constitute valid and binding obligations of such Obligor, enforceable in accordance with its terms.

6.04 Loan Documents Unmodified. Each of the amendments provided herein shall apply and be effective only with respect to the provisions of the Loan Document specifically referred to by such amendments. Except as otherwise specifically modified by this Amendment, all terms and provisions of the Loan Agreement and all other Loan Documents, as modified hereby, shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects. Nothing contained in this Amendment shall in any way impair the validity or enforceability of the Loan Documents, as modified hereby, or alter, waive, annul, vary, affect, or impair any provisions, conditions, or covenants contained therein or any rights, powers, or remedies granted therein, except as otherwise specifically provided in this Amendment. Subject to the terms of this Amendment, any lien and/or security interest granted to the Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, in the Collateral set forth in the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect and the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall continue to secure the payment and performance of all of the Obligations.

6.05 Parties, Successors and Assigns. This Amendment represents the agreement of the Borrowers, the Agent and each of the Lenders signatory hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations, or warranties relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents. This Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrowers, Agent, Lenders, and their respective successors and assigns, except that (i) no Borrower shall have the right to assign its rights or delegate its obligations under any Loan Documents; and (ii) any assignment by a Lender must be made in compliance with Section 13.3 of the Loan Agreement.

6.06 Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Amendment shall become effective when all conditions precedent have been met and when the Agent has executed it and received counterparts bearing the signatures of all other parties hereto. Delivery of a signature page of this Amendment by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of such agreement. This Amendment may be executed and delivered by facsimile or electronic mail, and will have the same force and effect as manually signed originals. Any electronic signature, contract formation on an electronic platform and electronic record-keeping shall have the same legal validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a paper-based recordkeeping system to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any similar state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

6.07 Headings. The headings, captions, and arrangements used in this Amendment are for convenience only, are not a part of this Amendment, and shall not affect the interpretation hereof.

 

15


6.08 Waivers. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Borrower waives (a) the right to trial by jury (which the Agent and each Lender hereby also waives) in any proceeding or dispute of any kind relating in any way to any Loan Documents (including this Amendment), Obligations, or Collateral; (b) presentment, demand, protest, notice of presentment, default, non-payment, maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension or renewal of any commercial paper, accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guaranties at any time held by the Agent on which a Borrower may in any way be liable, and hereby ratifies anything the Agent may do in this regard; (c) notice prior to taking possession or control of any Collateral; (d) any bond or security that might be required by a court prior to allowing the Agent to exercise any rights or remedies; (e) the benefit of all valuation, appraisement and exemption laws; (f) any claim against the Agent, Issuing Bank or any Lender, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) in any way relating to any Enforcement Action, Obligations, Loan Documents or transactions relating thereto; and (g) notice of acceptance hereof. Each Borrower acknowledges that the foregoing waivers are a material inducement to the Agent, Issuing Bank and Lenders entering into this Amendment and that the Agent, Issuing Bank and Lenders are relying upon the foregoing in their dealings with the Borrowers. Each Borrower has reviewed the foregoing waivers with its legal counsel and has knowingly and voluntarily waived its jury trial and other rights following consultation with legal counsel. In the event of litigation, this Amendment may be filed as a written consent to a trial by the court.

6.09 Choice of Law; Jury Trial Waiver; Submission to Jurisdiction. THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES (BUT GIVING EFFECT TO FEDERAL LAWS RELATING TO NATIONAL BANKS). EACH BORROWER HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY FEDERAL OR STATE COURT SITTING IN OR WITH JURISDICTION OVER THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, IN ANY DISPUTE, ACTION, LITIGATION OR OTHER PROCEEDING RELATING IN ANY WAY TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENTS, AND AGREES THAT ANY DISPUTE, ACTION, LITIGATION OR OTHER PROCEEDING SHALL BE BROUGHT BY IT SOLELY IN ANY SUCH COURT. EACH BORROWER IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ALL CLAIMS, OBJECTIONS AND DEFENSES THAT IT MAY HAVE REGARDING ANY SUCH COURT’S PERSONAL OR SUBJECT MATTER JURISDICTION, VENUE OR INCONVENIENT FORUM. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS AND CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 14.3.1 OF THE LOAN AGREEMENT. A final judgment in any proceeding of any such court shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or any other manner provided by Applicable Law. Nothing herein shall limit the right of the Agent or any Lender to bring proceedings against any Obligor in any other court, nor limit the right of any party to serve process in any other manner permitted by Applicable Law. Nothing in this Amendment shall be deemed to preclude enforcement by the Agent of any judgment or order obtained in any forum or jurisdiction.

6.10 Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of the Loan Documents shall be interpreted in such manner as to be valid under Applicable Law. If any provision is found to be invalid under Applicable Law, it shall be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity and the remaining provisions of the Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect.

6.11 Total Agreement. This Amendment, the Loan Agreement, and all other Loan Documents constitute the entire agreement, and supersede all prior understandings and agreements among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof.

 

16


6.12 Release. IN CONSIDERATION OF THIS AMENDMENT, EACH OBLIGOR REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT AS OF THE DATE HEREOF THERE ARE NO KNOWN CLAIMS, OFFSETS, DEFENSES OR COUNTERCLAIMS TO ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, AND HEREBY WAIVES ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, OFFSETS, DEFENSES OR COUNTERCLAIMS, WHETHER KNOWN OR UNKNOWN, ARISING PRIOR TO THE DATE OF ITS EXECUTION OF THIS AMENDMENT AND RELEASES AND DISCHARGES AGENT, EACH LENDER AND THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, SHAREHOLDERS, AFFILIATES AND ATTORNEYS (COLLECTIVELY THE “RELEASED PARTIES”) FROM ANY AND ALL OBLIGATIONS, INDEBTEDNESS, LIABILITIES, CLAIMS, RIGHTS, CAUSES OF ACTION OR DEMANDS WHATSOEVER, WHETHER KNOWN OR UNKNOWN, SUSPECTED OR UNSUSPECTED, IN LAW OR EQUITY, WHICH SUCH OBLIGOR HAS OR MAY HAVE AGAINST ANY RELEASED PARTY ARISING PRIOR TO THE DATE HEREOF AND FROM OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY.
