(b)    Upon the effectiveness of this Amendment, each reference in the Loan Agreement to “this Agreement,” “hereunder,” “hereof,” “herein” or words of like import shall mean and be a reference to the Loan Agreement, as amended by this Amendment.

(c)    The failure by Administrative Agent, at any time or times hereafter, to require strict performance by any Borrower of any provision or term of the Loan Agreement, this Amendment or any of the Financing Agreements shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of Administrative Agent hereafter to demand strict compliance and performance herewith or therewith.

The terms and provisions of this Amendment shall be limited precisely as written and shall not be deemed (x) to be a consent to any amendment or modification of any other term or condition of the Loan Agreement or of any of the Financing Agreements (except as expressly provided herein or in any of the other instruments, agreements, certificates and documents required to be executed and delivered in connection herewith); or (y) to prejudice any right or remedy which Administrative Agent or the Lenders may now have under or in connection with the Loan Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Amendment shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Amendment.

(e)    Except as expressly provided herein (or in any of the other instruments, agreements, certificates and documents required to be executed and delivered in connection herewith), the Loan Agreement and all of the other Financing Agreements shall remain unaltered, and the Loan Agreement and all of the other Financing Agreements shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects.

7.    Release.

(a)    In consideration of, among other things, the consent and amendments provided for herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, Borrower and Guarantor (on behalf of themselves and their respective subsidiaries, Affiliates, successors and assigns), and, to the extent permitted by applicable law and the same is claimed by right of, through or under the above, for their past, present and future employees, directors, members, managers, partners, agents, representatives, officers, directors, and equity holders (all collectively, with Borrower and Guarantor, the “Releasing Parties”), do hereby unconditionally, irrevocably, fully, and forever remise, satisfy, acquit, release and discharge Administrative Agent, Issuing Lender, and Lenders and each of Administrative Agent’s, Issuing Lender’s and Lender’s past, present and future officers, directors, agents, employees, attorneys, parent, shareholders, successors, assigns, subsidiaries and Affiliates and all other persons and entities to whom Administrative Agent or Lenders would be liable if such persons or entities were found in any way to be liable to any of the Releasing Parties (collectively, the “Lender Parties”), of and from any and all manner of action and actions, cause and causes of action, claims, cross-claims, charges, demands, counterclaims, suits, proceedings, disputes, debts, dues, sums of money, accounts, bonds, covenants, contracts, controversies, damages, judgments, liabilities, damages, costs, expenses, executions, liens, claims of liens, claims of costs, penalties, attorneys’ fees, or any other compensation, recovery or relief on account of any liability, obligation, demand, proceedings or cause of action of whatever nature, whether in law, equity or otherwise (including, without limitation, those arising under 11 U.S.C. §§ 541-550 and interest or other carrying costs, penalties, legal, accounting and other professional fees and expenses, and incidental, consequential and punitive damages payable to third parties), whether known or unknown, fixed or contingent, joint and/or several, secured or unsecured, due or not due, primary or secondary, liquidated or unliquidated, contractual or tortious, direct, indirect, or derivative, asserted or unasserted, foreseen or unforeseen, suspected or unsuspected, now existing, heretofore existing or which may have heretofore accrued against any or all of Lender Parties, whether held in a personal or representative capacity, that the Releasing Parties (or any of them) have or may have against the Lender Parties or any of them (whether directly or indirectly) and which are based on any act, fact, event, action or omission or any other matter, condition, cause or thing occurring at or from any time prior to and including the date hereof in any way, directly or indirectly arising out of, connected with or relating to this Amendment, the Loan Agreement or any other Financing Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, the Collateral or the Liabilities, and all other agreements, certificates, instruments and other documents and statements (whether written or oral) related to any of the foregoing, other than any applicable good faith claim as to which a final determination is made in a judicial proceeding (in which Administrative Agent and any of the Released Parties have had an opportunity to be heard) which determination includes a specific finding that Administrative Agent acted in a grossly negligent manner or with actual willful misconduct or illegal activity. Borrower and Guarantor each acknowledges that Administrative Agent and Lenders are specifically relying upon the representations, warranties and agreements contained herein and that such representations, warranties and agreements constitute a material inducement to Administrative Agent and Lenders in entering into this Amendment.

(b)    Borrower and Guarantor each understands, acknowledges and agrees that the release set forth above may be pleaded as a full and complete defense and may be used as a basis for an injunction against any action, suit or other proceeding which may be instituted, prosecuted or attempted in breach of the provisions of such release.

(c)    To the furthest extent permitted by law, Borrower and Guarantor each hereby knowingly, voluntarily, intentionally and expressly waives and relinquishes any and all rights and benefits that it respectively may have as against Lender Parties under any law, rule or regulation of any jurisdiction that would or could have the effect of limiting the extent to which a general release extends to claims which a Lender Party or Releasing Party does not know or suspect to exist as of the date hereof. Borrower and Guarantor each hereby acknowledges that the waiver set forth in the prior sentence was separately bargained for and that such waiver is an essential term and condition of this Amendment (and without which the amendments in Sections 1 and 2 hereof would not have been agreed to by Administrative Agent and Lenders).

8.    Costs and Expenses. Without limiting the obligation of Borrower to reimburse Administrative Agent for all costs, fees, disbursements and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent as specified in the Loan Agreement, Borrower agrees to and shall pay on demand all reasonable costs, fees, disbursements and expenses of Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation, revision, execution and delivery of this Amendment and the other agreements, amendments, modifications, reaffirmations, instruments and documents contemplated hereby, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and out-of-pocket expenses. All obligations provided herein shall survive any termination of this Amendment and the Loan Agreement as amended hereby.

9.    Financing Agreement. This Amendment shall constitute a Financing Agreement.

10.    Titles. Titles and section headings herein shall be without substantive meaning and are provided solely for the convenience of the parties.

11.    Severability; Etc. Whenever possible, each provision of this Amendment shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Amendment shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Amendment. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Amendment. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Amendment shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Amendment.

12.    Successors and Assigns. This Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, no Borrower may assign any of its respective rights or obligations under this Amendment without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent.
