Recitals
Whereas, the Borrower, the Guarantors from time to time party thereto, the Lenders from time to time party thereto and the Administrative Agent are parties to that certain Credit Agreement and Guaranty, dated as of November 16, 2022 (as may be further amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”);

Whereas, the Majority Lenders are willing to grant such waiver in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of this Waiver.
Now, Therefore, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants and the agreements herein set forth, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

Limited Waiver
Section 2.1.Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Article IV hereof, pursuant to Section 13.04 of the Credit Agreement and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Majority Lenders hereby waive the Specified Event of Default. For the avoidance of doubt, this waiver is effective solely as a waiver of the Specified Event of Default and does not constitute a waiver of any other Default or Event of Default.

Section 3.1.Representations and Warranties. In order to induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enter into this Waiver, the Borrower hereby represents and warrants as follows:
(a)After giving effect to this Waiver, the representations and warranties of the Obligors contained in Article 7 of the Credit Agreement and in each other Loan Document shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date hereof; provided that to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, they shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date; provided further that any representation and warranty that is qualified as to “materiality”, “Material Adverse Effect” or similar language shall be true and correct (after giving effect to any qualification therein) in all respects on such respective dates.
(b)No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or shall occur and be continuing immediately after giving effect to this Waiver.
Effectiveness
Section 4.1.Effectiveness. This Waiver shall become effective as of the date set forth above on which this Waiver shall be executed by each party hereto.
Section 5.1.Reference to and Effect on the Loan Documents.

(b)Except as specifically set forth in this Waiver, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed.

Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Waiver by facsimile, DocuSign, or a scanned copy by electronic mail shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Waiver.
Section 5.5.Severability. If any term or other provision of this Waiver is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Waiver will nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto will negotiate in good faith to modify this Waiver so as to effect the original intent of the parties as
