(a)   In consideration of the agreements of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each Loan Party, on behalf of itself and its successors and assigns (the Company and the other Loan Parties being hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Releasing Parties” and individually as a “Releasing Party”), hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably releases, remises and forever discharges the Agents, each Lender, and each of their respective successors and assigns, and their respective present and former shareholders, affiliates, subsidiaries, divisions, predecessors, directors, officers, attorneys, employees, agents, legal representatives and other representatives (the Agents, the Lenders and all such other Persons being hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Releasees” and individually as a “Releasee”), of and from all demands, actions, causes of action, suits, damages and any and all other claims, counterclaims, defenses, rights of set off, demands and liabilities whatsoever (individually, a “Claim” and collectively, “Claims”) of every kind and nature, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, at law or in equity, which any Releasing Party may now or hereafter own, hold, have or claim to have against the Releasees or any of them for, upon, or by reason of any circumstance, action, cause or thing whatsoever which arose or occurred at any time on or prior to the Waiver and Amendment Effective Date, for or on account of, or in relation to, or in any way in connection with this Waiver and Amendment, the Credit Agreement, any of the Credit Documents or any of the transactions hereunder or thereunder.

(b)   The Company and the each other Loan Party understands, acknowledges and agrees that the release set forth above may be pleaded as a full and complete defense to any Claim 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)   The Company and each other Loan Party agree that no fact, event, circumstance, evidence or transaction which could now be asserted or which may hereafter be discovered shall affect in any manner the final, absolute and unconditional nature of the release set forth above.

(d)   Each of the Releasing Parties hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably, covenants and agrees with and in favor of each Releasee that it will not sue (at law, in equity, in any regulatory proceeding or otherwise) any Releasee on the basis of any Claim released, remised and discharged by any Releasing Party pursuant to this Section 13.

Section 14.            Course of Dealing. Each of the Company and the Loan Parties acknowledge and agree that neither the execution nor the delivery by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Lenders party hereto of this Waiver and Amendment shall be deemed to create a course of dealing or otherwise obligate any Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender to execute similar documents under the same or similar circumstances in the future.

Section 15.            Action and Declaration of Effectiveness by Administrative Agent. Each of the Lenders party hereto (constituting the Required Lenders) hereby direct the Administrative Agent to enter into this Waiver and Amendment in accordance with Section 10.02(a) of the Credit Agreement. The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized and directed to declare this Waiver and Amendment to be effective (and the Waiver and Amendment Effective Date shall occur) when it has received documents confirming or evidencing, to the satisfaction of the Administrative Agent, compliance with the conditions set forth in Section 4 hereunder. Such declaration shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties to the Credit Agreement for all purposes. Each Lender that has signed and released its signature page to this Waiver and Amendment shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required hereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender.

Section 16.            Survival; Severability.

All representations and warranties made hereunder, the amendments to the Credit Agreement set forth in Section 3 hereof and the agreements of the Loan Parties and the Releasing Parties set forth in Section 13 hereof shall survive the execution and delivery of this Waiver and Amendment and the expiration or termination of the Temporary Waiver Period. Any provision of this Waiver and Amendment which 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 provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 17.            Covenant: On or prior to the date that is one (1) Business Day after Waiver and Amendment Effective Date (or such later date as the Administrative Agent agrees in its reasonable discretion), the Company shall have paid (or cause to be paid) to the Agent (1) all of its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Waiver and Amendment, any other documents prepared in connection herewith and the transactions contemplated hereby, (2) the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of Shearman & Sterling LLP, as counsel to the Administrative Agent, to the extent invoiced on or prior to 12:00 PM (New York time) on the Waiver and Amendment Effective Date and (3) the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP, as restructuring counsel to the Administrative Agent and the failure to make any such payment as set forth herein shall constitute an automatic Event of Default under the Credit Agreement.

Section 18.            Costs and Expenses. The Company hereby irrevocably consents to the retention of (i) Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP, as restructuring counsel to the Administrative Agent, during the Temporary Waiver Period, and, in addition to (to the extent not otherwise provided in the Credit Agreement), and not in lieu of, the terms of the Credit Agreement and other Credit Documents relating to the reimbursement of Lenders’ fees and expenses, the Company agrees to pay Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP during the Temporary Waiver Period in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Waiver and Amendment.
