Defined terms may be used in the singular or the plural, as the context requires. The words “include,” “includes” and “including” are deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation.” Unless the context in which it is used otherwise clearly requires, the word “or” has the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase “and/or.” References to Sections and Exhibits are to Sections and Exhibits of this Amendment unless otherwise expressly provided.

7. Borrower represents, warrants and agrees that (a) there exists no Default or Event of Default under the Loan Documents, (b) the Loan Documents continue to be the legal, valid and binding agreements and obligations of Borrower, enforceable in accordance with their terms, as modified by this Amendment, (c) no Lender is in default under any of the Loan Documents and Borrower has no offset or defense to its performance or obligations under any of the Loan Documents, (d) except for changes permitted by the terms of the Agreement, Borrower’s representations and warranties contained in the Loan Documents are true, accurate and complete in all respects as of the Effective Date and (e) there has been no material adverse change in Borrower’s financial condition from the date of the Agreement to the Effective Date.

 

8. Except as expressly modified, the Agreement is unchanged and remains in full force and effect, and Borrower ratifies and reaffirms all of its obligations under the Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

 

9. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.
