7. Reaffirmation. Each Guarantor hereby represents and warrants that its Guaranty and each other Credit Document to which such Guarantor is a party is the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor, enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with its terms except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally or by equitable principles relating to enforceability. Each Guarantor confirms that the representations and warranties set forth in the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents made by such Guarantor are true and correct as to such Guarantor in all material respects as of the date hereof (except to the extent such representations and warranties relate to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date) and each Guarantor shall comply with each of the covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents applicable to it. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor hereby agrees to perform all the obligations of a Guarantor under, and to be bound in all respects by the terms of, the Credit Agreement, including without limitation Section 10 thereof, to the same extent and with the same force and effect as if such Person was an original signatory party thereto.
8. Reference to Credit Agreement; Amendment as a Credit Document. Each of the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and any and all other agreements, documents or instruments now or hereafter executed and delivered pursuant to the terms hereof or pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, are hereby amended so that any reference in the Credit Agreement and such other Credit Documents to the Credit Agreement shall mean a reference to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby. Each Credit Party and Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that this Amendment constitutes a “Credit Document.”
9. Expenses of Agents and Lenders. Each Credit Party agrees to pay, jointly and severally, promptly after demand, all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Agents and the Lenders in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Amendment in accordance with Section 9.2 of the Amended Credit Agreement.
10. Severability. Any provision of this Amendment held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions
11
hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.
11. Successors and Assigns. This Amendment is binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Agents, the Lenders, the Credit Parties, the Guarantors, and their respective successors and permitted assigns, except that the Credit Parties and the Guarantors may not assign or transfer any of its respective rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.
12. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Amendment by telecopy or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment. This Amendment may be in the form of an Electronic Record and may be executed using Electronic Signatures (including, without limitation, facsimile and .pdf) and shall be considered an original, and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record. For the avoidance of doubt, the authorization under this paragraph may include, without limitation, use or acceptance by the Agents of a manually signed paper Amendment which has been converted into electronic form (such as scanned into PDF format), or an electronically signed Amendment converted into another format, for transmission, delivery and/or retention. For purposes hereof, “Electronic Record” and “Electronic Signature” shall have the meanings assigned to them, respectively, by 15 USC §7006, as it may be amended from time to time.
13. No Waiver. Other than as specifically set forth in Section 2, nothing contained in this Amendment shall be construed as an amendment or waiver by the Agents or the Lenders of any covenant or provision of the Credit Agreement, the other Credit Documents, this Amendment, or of any other contract or instrument among the Credit Parties, the Guarantors, the Lenders and the Agents, and the failure of the Lenders and the Agents at any time or times hereafter to require strict performance by the Credit Parties and the Guarantors of any provision thereof shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of the Agents to thereafter demand strict compliance therewith. The Agents and Lenders hereby reserve all rights granted to each of them under the Credit Agreement, the other Credit Documents, this Amendment and any other contract or instrument among the Credit Parties and the Guarantors and any one or more of the Agents and the Lenders.
14. Release. To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Credit Party and no Guarantor shall assert, and each Credit Party and each Guarantor hereby waives, any claim against the Lenders, the Agents and their respective Affiliates, directors, employees, attorneys or agents, on any theory of liability, arising out of, in connection with, as a result of, or in any way related to this Amendment and each Credit Document on or before the date of this Amendment and each of Credit Party and Guarantors hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any such claim or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.
15. Headings. Article and Section headings used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Amendment and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Amendment.
16. Applicable Law. THIS AMENDMENT, AND THE RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF THE PARTIES HERETO, SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD REQUIRE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION.
12
17. Final Agreement. THE CREDIT AGREEMENT, AS AMENDED HEREBY, CONSTITUTES THE ENTIRE CONTRACT BETWEEN AND AMONG THE PARTIES RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER THEREOF AND SUPERSEDES ANY AND ALL PREVIOUS AGREEMENTS AND UNDERSTANDINGS, ORAL OR WRITTEN, RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER THEREOF.
