9.            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 No. 4 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. Except for the amendments to the Credit Agreement expressly set forth herein, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect. The waivers, consents and modifications set forth herein, if any, are limited to the specifics hereof (including facts or occurrences on which the same are based), shall not apply with respect to any facts or occurrences other than those on which the same are based, shall neither excuse any future non-compliance with the Loan Documents nor operate as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, shall not operate as a consent to any further waiver, consent or amendment or other matter under the Loan Documents, and shall not be construed as an indication that any future waiver or amendment of covenants or any other provision of the Credit Agreement will be agreed to, it being understood that the granting or denying of any waiver or amendment which may hereafter be requested by Borrower remains in the sole and absolute discretion of Agent and Lenders. To the extent that any terms or provisions of this Amendment No. 4 conflict with those of the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the terms and provisions of this Amendment No. 4 shall control.

 

(b)                Upon and after the effectiveness of this Amendment No. 4, 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 of the terms and conditions in any of the Loan Documents shall contradict or be in conflict with any of the terms or conditions of the Credit Agreement, after giving effect to this Amendment No. 4, 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 No. 4 is a Loan Document.

 

(e)                Unless the context of this Amendment No. 4 clearly requires otherwise, references to the plural include the singular, references to the singular include the plural, the terms “includes” and “including” are not limiting, and the term “or” has, except where otherwise indicated, the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase “and/or”. The words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby,” “hereunder,” and similar terms in this Amendment No. 4 refer to this Amendment No. 4 as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Amendment No. 4. Section, subsection, clause, schedule, and exhibit references herein are to this Amendment No. 4 unless otherwise specified. Any reference in this Amendment No. 4 to any agreement, instrument, or document shall include all alterations, amendments, changes, extensions, modifications, renewals, replacements, substitutions, joinders, and supplements, thereto and thereof, as applicable (subject to any restrictions on such alterations, amendments, changes, extensions, modifications, renewals, replacements, substitutions, joinders, and supplements set forth herein) Any reference herein to the Obligations shall (i) mean “Obligations” as defined in the Credit Agreement (including any expenses, fees or interest that accrue after the commencement of an Insolvency Proceeding, regardless of whether allowed or allowable in whole or in part as a claim in any such Insolvency Proceeding) and (ii) include all or any portion thereof and any extensions, modifications, renewals, or alterations thereof, both prior and subsequent to any Insolvency Proceeding.

 

 4 

 

10.          Entire Agreement. This Amendment No. 4, and the terms and provisions hereof, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire understanding and agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all prior or contemporaneous amendments or understandings with respect to the subject matter hereof, whether express or implied, oral or written.

 

11.          Integration. This Amendment No. 4, together with the other Loan Documents, incorporates all negotiations of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and is the final expression and agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.

 

12.          Reaffirmation of Obligations. Each Loan Party hereby (a) acknowledges and reaffirms its obligations owing to Agent and each Lender under each Loan Document to which it is a party (including, in respect of Global Parent, its Guaranty of the Obligations), and (b) agrees that each of the Loan Documents to which it is a party is and shall remain in full force and effect. Each Loan Party hereby (i) further ratifies and reaffirms the validity and enforceability of all of the Liens and security interests heretofore granted, pursuant to and in connection with the Security Agreement or any other Loan Document to Collateral Agent, on behalf and for the benefit of each Secured Party, as collateral security for the obligations under the Loan Documents in accordance with their respective terms, and (ii) acknowledges that all of such Liens and security interests, and all Collateral heretofore pledged as security for such obligations, continue to be and remain collateral for such obligations from and after the date hereof (including, without limitation, from after giving effect to this Amendment No. 4).

 

13.          Severability. In case any provision in this Amendment No. 4 shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such provision shall be severable from the remainder of this Amendment No. 4 and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

 

14.          Consent to Intercreditor Agreement. Each undersigned Lender, collectively comprising all Lenders, hereby (i) confirms that it has reviewed the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and (ii) acknowledges and consents to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement for all purposes on the terms set forth therein.
