(b)The Existing Revolving Credit Agreement, the Notes and each of the other Loan Documents, as specifically amended by this Amendment, are and shall continue to be in full force and effect and are hereby in all respects ratified and confirmed.
(c)The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not, except as expressly provided herein, operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of any Lender or the Administrative Agent under any of the Loan Documents, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of any of the Loan Documents.
(d)This Amendment shall not extinguish the obligations for the payment of money outstanding under the Existing Revolving Credit Agreement.  Nothing herein contained shall be construed as a substitution or novation of the obligations outstanding under the Existing Revolving Credit Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect, except to any extent modified hereby or as provided in the exhibits hereto.  Nothing implied in this Amendment or in any other document contemplated hereby shall be construed as a release or other discharge of any of the Loan Parties from the Loan Documents.
