(c) Authorization; Etc. The execution, delivery and performance of this Waiver by the Loan Parties, and the performance of the Credit Agreement, (i) have been duly authorized by all necessary action, (ii) do not and will not contravene (A) any of its Organizational Documents, (B) any material law or regulation, or any judgment, order or decree of any Governmental Body or (C) any Material Contract binding on or otherwise affecting it or any of its properties, (iii) do not and will not result in or require the creation of any Lien (other than pursuant to any Other Document) upon or with respect to any of its properties, and (iv) do not and will not result in any default, noncompliance, suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or nonrenewal of any permit, license, authorization or approval applicable to its operations or any of its properties, except, in the case of clause (iv), to the extent where such contravention, default, noncompliance, suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or nonrenewal could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(c) Except as expressly waived herein, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the Waiver Effective Date or result from this Waiver becoming effective in accordance with its terms.

5. Continued Effectiveness of the Credit Agreement and Other Documents. Each Loan Party hereby (i) acknowledges and consents to this Waiver, (ii) confirms and agrees that the Credit Agreement and each Other Document to which it is a party is, and shall continue to be, in full force and effect and is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects except that on and after the Waiver Effective Date all references in any such Other Document to "the Credit Agreement", the "Agreement", "thereto", "thereof", "thereunder" or words of like import referring to the Credit Agreement shall mean the Credit Agreement as amended or modified by this Waiver, and (iii) confirms and agrees that to the extent that any such Other Document purports to assign or pledge to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders, or to grant to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders a security interest in or Lien on, any Collateral as security for the Obligations of the Loan Parties from time to time existing in respect of the Credit Agreement (as amended hereby) and the Other Documents, such pledge, assignment and/or grant of the security interest or Lien is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects. This Waiver does not and shall not affect any of the obligations of the Loan Parties, other than as expressly provided herein, including, without limitation, the Loan Parties' obligations to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of Credit Agreement, or the obligations of the Loan Parties under any Other Document to which they are a party, all of which obligations shall remain in full force and effect. Except as expressly provided herein, the execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Waiver shall not operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of the Agents or any Lender under the Credit Agreement or any Other Document, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of the Credit Agreement or any Other Document.

6. Release. Each Loan Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that: (a) neither it nor any of its Affiliates has any claim or cause of action against any Agent or any Lender (or any of their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, attorneys, consultants or agents) under the Credit Agreement and the Other Documents and (b) each Agent and each Lender has heretofore properly performed and satisfied in a timely manner all of its obligations to such Loan Party and its Affiliates under the Credit Agreement and the Other Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Agents and the Lenders wish (and each Loan Party agrees) to eliminate any possibility that any past conditions, acts, omissions, events or circumstances would impair or otherwise adversely affect any of the Agents' and the Lenders' rights, interests, security and/or remedies under the Credit Agreement and the Other Documents. Accordingly, for and in consideration of the agreements contained in this Waiver and other good and valuable consideration, each Loan Party (for itself and its Affiliates and the successors, assigns, heirs and representatives of each of the foregoing) (collectively, the "Releasors") does hereby fully, finally, unconditionally and irrevocably release and forever discharge each Agent, each Lender and each of their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, attorneys, consultants and agents (collectively, the "Released Parties") from any and all debts, claims, obligations, damages, costs, attorneys' fees, suits, demands, liabilities, actions, proceedings and causes of action, in each case, whether known or unknown, contingent or fixed, direct or indirect, and of whatever nature or description, and whether in law or in equity, under contract, tort, statute or otherwise, which any Releasor has heretofore had or now or hereafter can, shall or may have against any Released Party by reason of any act, omission or thing whatsoever done or omitted to be done on or prior to the Waiver Effective Date and arising out of, connected with or related in any way to this Waiver, the Credit Agreement or any Other Document, or any act, event or transaction related or attendant thereto, or the agreements of any Agent or any Lender contained therein, or the possession, use, operation or control of any of the assets of each Loan Party, or the making of any Loans, or the management of such Loans or the Collateral, in each case, on or prior to the Waiver Effective Date.

As to each and every claim released hereunder, each Loan Party hereby represents that it has received the advice of legal counsel with regard to the releases contained herein, and having been so advised, specifically waives the benefit of each provision of applicable federal or state law (including without limitation the laws of the state of New York), if any, pertaining to general releases after having been advised by its legal counsel with respect thereto.

As to each and every claim released hereunder, each Loan Party also waives the benefit of each other similar provision of applicable federal or state law (including without limitation the laws of the state of New York), if any, pertaining to general releases after having been advised by its legal counsel with respect thereto.

Each Loan Party acknowledges that it may hereafter discover facts different from or in addition to those now known or believed to be true with respect to such claims, demands, or causes of action and agrees that this instrument shall be and remain effective in all respects notwithstanding any such differences or additional facts. Each Loan Party 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.

Each Loan Party, for itself and on behalf of its successors, assigns, and officers, directors, employees, agents and attorneys, and any Person acting for or on behalf of, or claiming through it, hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably, covenants and agrees with and in favor of the Released Parties above that it will not sue (at law, in equity, in any regulatory proceeding or otherwise) the Released Parties on the basis of any claim released, remised and discharged by such Person pursuant to this Section 6. Each Loan Party further agrees that it shall not dispute the validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any of the Other Documents or any of its obligations thereunder, or the validity, priority, enforceability or the extent of Collateral Agent's Lien on any item of Collateral under the Credit Agreement or the Other Documents. If any Loan Party or any of its respective successors, assigns, or officers, directors, employees, agents and attorneys, or any Person acting for or on behalf of, or claiming through it violate the foregoing covenant, such Person, for itself and its successors, assigns and legal representatives, agrees to pay, in addition to such other damages as the Released Parties may sustain as a result of such violation, all reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred by the Released Parties as a result of such violation.

7. Miscellaneous.

(a) This Waiver may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Waiver by facsimile or electronic mail shall be equally effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Waiver.

(b) Section and paragraph headings herein are included for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Waiver for any other purpose.

(c) This Waiver shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

(d) Each Loan Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that this Waiver constitutes a "Other Document" under the Credit Agreement. Accordingly, it shall be an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement if (i) any representation or warranty made by a Loan Party under or in connection with this Waiver shall have been untrue, false or misleading in any material respect when made, or (ii) any Loan Party shall fail to perform or observe any term, covenant or agreement contained in this Waiver.

(e) Any provision of this Waiver that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining portions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

(f) The Borrowers will pay on demand all reasonable fees, costs and expenses of the Agents and the Lenders party to this Waiver in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of this Waiver or otherwise payable under the Credit Agreement, including, without limitation, reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel to the Agents and the Lenders party to this Waiver.
