(a) Each Loan Party Obligor is validly existing as a corporation, limited liability company or limited partnership, as applicable, and is in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation, organization or formation, as applicable. Each Loan Party Obligor (i) has full power and authority (and all governmental licenses, authorizations, permits (including all Health Care Permits and other Permits), consents and approvals) to (A) own its properties and conduct its business and (B) to (x) enter into, and perform its obligations under, this Waiver and the other Loan Documents and (y) consummate the transactions contemplated under this Waiver and the other Loan Documents, and (ii) is duly qualified as a foreign corporation, limited liability company or limited partnership, as applicable, and licensed and in good standing, under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification or license, in each case of this clause (ii), where the failure to be so qualified, licensed or in good standing could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
(b) The execution, delivery and performance of this Waiver and the other Loan Documents, in each case, have been duly authorized by each Loan Party Obligor, and no further consent or authorization is required by any Loan Party Obligor, any Loan Party Obligor’s board of directors (or other equivalent governing body) or the holders of any Loan Party Obligor’s Stock. This Waiver has been duly executed and delivered by each of the Loan Party Obligors and constitutes a valid, legal and binding obligation of each Loan Party Obligor, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law). The execution, delivery and performance of this Waiver by each Loan Party Obligor party hereto and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not (A) conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any assets of any such Loan Party Obligor pursuant to, any agreement, document or instrument to which such Loan Party Obligor is a party or by which any Loan Party Obligor is bound or to which any of the assets or property of any Loan Party Obligor is subject, except, with respect to this clause (A), as could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect, (B) result in any violation of or conflict with the provisions of such Loan Party Obligor’s Organizational Documents, (C) result in the violation of any Applicable Law, (D) result in the violation of any judgment, order, rule, regulation or decree of any Governmental Authority, or (E) violate, conflict with or cause a breach or default under any agreement or instrument binding upon it, except, with respect to clauses (C) and (E) only, as could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect. No consent, approval, Authorization or order of, or registration or filing with any Governmental Authority is required for (i) the execution, delivery and performance of this Waiver.
4

(d) Immediately after giving effect to this Waiver (including Section 2 hereof), no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.
SECTION 5. Fees, Costs and Expense Reimbursement. The Loan Party Obligors agree to pay on the date of this Waiver all fees, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Secured Parties in connection with this Waiver and any other Loan Document and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.
SECTION 6. Captions. Captions used in this Waiver are for convenience only and shall not modify or affect the interpretation or construction of this Waiver.
SECTION 7. Counterparts. This Waiver may be executed in several counterparts, and by each party hereto on separate counterparts, each of which and any photocopies, facsimile copies and other electronic methods of transmission thereof shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
SECTION 8. Severability. If any provision of this Waiver shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any Applicable Law, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The parties hereto shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.
SECTION 9. Entire Agreement. The Facility Agreement, as modified hereby, together with all other Loan Documents, contains the entire understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the matters covered thereby and supersedes any and all other written and oral communications, negotiations, commitments and writings with respect thereto.
SECTION 10. Successors; Assigns. This Waiver shall be binding upon the Borrower, the other Loan Party Obligors, the Lenders and the Collateral Agent and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the other Loan Party Obligors, the Lenders, the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and the successors and assigns of the Lenders, the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties.

Each Loan Party Obligor party hereto hereby consents to this Waiver and acknowledges that the Facility Agreement and each other Loan Document remains in full force and effect and is hereby ratified and reaffirmed. The execution and delivery of this Waiver shall not operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of the Collateral Agent, the Lenders or any other Secured Party, constitute a waiver of any provision of the Facility Agreement or any other Loan Document or serve to effect a novation of the obligations (including the Obligations). For the avoidance of doubt, this Waiver is not intended by the parties to be, and shall not be construed to be, a novation of the Facility Agreement and the other Loan Documents or an accord and satisfaction in regard thereto.

Except for the waiver expressly set forth herein, the Facility Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect. The waiver set forth herein is limited to the specified provisions of this Waiver, shall not apply with respect to any facts or occurrences other than those on which the same are based, shall neither excuse future non-compliance with this Waiver, the Facility Agreement and the other Loan Documents nor operate as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, shall not operate as a consent to any further or other matter under this Waiver, the Facility Agreement and the other Loan Documents and shall not be construed as an indication that any waiver of covenants or any other provision of this Waiver, the Facility Agreement or any other Loan Document will be agreed to, it being understood that the granting or denying of any waiver which may hereafter be requested by Borrower or any other Loan Party Obligor remains in the sole and absolute discretion of the Collateral Agent and the Lenders.
(b) Upon the effectiveness of this Waiver, each reference in the Facility Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereunder”, “herein”, “hereof” or words of like import referring to the Facility Agreement, and each reference in the other Loan Documents to “the Facility Agreement”, “thereunder”, “therein”, “thereof” or words of like import referring to the Facility Agreement, shall mean and be a reference to the Facility Agreement as modified by this Waiver.
(c) This Waiver is a Loan Document.
