          (c) all of the obligations and liabilities of the Borrower under the Existing Credit Agreement (i) are continued in full force and effect on a continuous basis, unpaid and undischarged (except to the extent expressly provided in the Second Amendment), pursuant to the Amended Credit Agreement and (ii) constitute the same obligations and liabilities under the Amended Credit Agreement (except to the extent expressly provided in the Second Amendment); and
          (d) this Reaffirmation is being executed and delivered at the request of the Lenders and shall not imply or require that any consent of such Confirming Parties is needed in connection with any future amendments or waivers of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Documents or any additional borrowings thereunder.
