(k)                                  No injunction, writ, restraining order, or other order of any nature prohibiting, directly or indirectly, the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein shall have been issued and remain in force by any Governmental Authority against Borrower, any Guarantor, Agent, or any Lender.

 

4.               Release. Borrower hereby waives, releases, remises and forever discharges each member of the Lender Group, each of their respective Affiliates, and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, and agents (collectively, the “Releasees”), from any and all claims, demands, obligations, liabilities, causes of action, damages, losses, costs and expenses of any kind or character, known or unknown, past or present, liquidated or unliquidated, suspected or unsuspected, which Borrower ever had, now has or might hereafter have against any such Releasee which relates, directly or indirectly, to the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to any acts or omissions of any such Releasee with respect to the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to the lender-borrower relationship evidenced by the Loan Documents. As to each and every claim released hereunder, Borrower hereby represents that it has received the advice of legal counsel with regard to the releases contained herein, and having been so advised, Borrower specifically waives the benefit of the provisions of Section 1542 of the Civil Code of California which provides as follows:

 

“A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH A CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM, MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.”

 

As to each and every claim released hereunder, Borrower also waives the benefit of each other similar provision of applicable federal or state law, if any, pertaining to general releases after having been advised by its legal counsel with respect thereto.

 

5.               Representations and Warranties. Borrower represents and warrants to the Lender Group that (a) the execution, delivery, and performance of this Amendment and of the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, (i) are within its powers, (ii) have been duly authorized by all necessary action, and (iii) are not in contravention of any law, rule, or regulation applicable to it, or any order, judgment, decree, writ, injunction, or award of any arbitrator, court, or Governmental Authority, or of the terms of its Governing Documents, or of any contract or undertaking to which it is a party or by which any of its properties may be bound or affected; (b) this Amendment and the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, are legal, valid and binding obligations of Borrower, enforceable against Borrower in accordance with their respective terms; and (c) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date hereof or as of the date upon which the conditions precedent set forth herein are satisfied.

 

6.               Choice of Law. The validity of this Amendment, its construction, interpretation and enforcement, the rights of the parties hereunder, shall be determined under, governed by, and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

7.               Counterpart Execution. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument, and any of the parties hereto may execute this Amendment by signing any such counterpart. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Amendment by telefacsimile or electronic mail shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Amendment. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Amendment by telefacsimile or electronic mail also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Amendment, but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Amendment.

 

8.               Effect on Loan Documents.

 

(a)                                  The Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, and each of the other Loan Documents shall be and remain in full force and effect in accordance with their respective terms and hereby are ratified and confirmed in all respects. The execution, delivery, and performance of this Amendment shall not operate, except as expressly set forth herein, as a modification or waiver of any right, power, or remedy of Agent or any Lender under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document. The waivers, consents, and modifications herein are limited to the specifics hereof, shall not apply with respect to any facts or occurrences other than those on which the same are based, shall not excuse future non-compliance with the Loan Documents, and shall not operate as a consent to any further or other matter under the Loan Documents.

 

(b)                                 Upon and after the effectiveness of this Amendment, each reference in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereunder”, “herein”, “hereof” or words of like import referring to the Credit Agreement, and each reference in the other Loan Documents to “the Credit Agreement”, “thereunder”, “therein”, “thereof” or words of like import referring to the Credit Agreement, shall mean and be a reference to the Credit Agreement as modified and amended hereby.

 

(c)                                  To the extent that any terms and conditions in any of the Loan Documents shall contradict or be in conflict with any terms or conditions of the Credit Agreement, after giving effect to this Amendment, such terms and conditions are hereby deemed modified or amended accordingly to reflect the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement as modified or amended hereby.

 

(d)                                 This Amendment is a Loan Document.

 

(e)                                  As of the Third Amendment Effective Date, each lender identified on the signature pages hereof shall be a party to the Credit Agreement and, to the extent of its interest as set forth on Exhibit A, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender thereunder and under the other Loan Documents.

 

9.               Entire Agreement. This Amendment embodies the entire understanding and agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all prior or contemporaneous agreements or understandings with respect to the subject matter hereof, whether express or implied, oral or written.
