(e)    Section 2.03(c) (Certain Limitations) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by (i) deleting the word “and” after the semicolon of clause (v) therein, (ii) replacing the “.” at the end of clause (vi) therein with “; and”, and (iii) adding the following new clause (vii) immediately below clause (vi) therein:

(vii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in clauses (ii), (iii), and (iv) above, if the Administrative Agent has made the determination (such determination to be conclusive absent manifest error) or the Majority Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that the Majority Lenders have made the determination, that (A) the circumstances described in clause (ii), (iii) or (iv) have arisen and that such circumstances are unlikely to be

In connection with the establishment and application of the Replacement Rate, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be amended solely with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this clause (vii). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Section 9.03), such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the delivery of such amendment to the Lenders, written notices from such Lenders that in the aggregate constitute Majority Lenders, with each such notice stating that such Lender objects to such amendment. To the extent the Replacement Rate is approved by the Administrative Agent in connection with this clause (vii), the Replacement Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; provided that, in each case, to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, such Replacement Rate shall be applied as otherwise reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent (it being understood that any such modification by the Administrative Agent shall not require the consent of, or consultation with, any of the Lenders).

(j)    Section 9.03(a) (Waivers and Amendments) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by amending and restating such subsection to read as follows:

no amendment, waiver or consent shall, without the consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, (i) reduce the amount of, or rate of interest on, the Advances (other than the Default Rate of interest on the Advances which may be reduced or waived by the Majority Lenders); provided that the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may, without the consent of any Lender, enter into amendments or modifications to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or enter into additional Loan Documents as the Administrative Agent reasonably deems appropriate in order to implement any Replacement Rate or otherwise effectuate the terms of Section 2.03(c)(vii) in accordance with the terms of such Section, (ii) reduce the amount of any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document (other than those specifically addressed above in this Section 9.03), (iii) amend, waive or consent to depart from any of the conditions specified in Section 3.01 (other than such conditions which are expressly noted to be subject to Majority Lenders’ approval), (iv) increase the Maximum Credit Amount or any obligations of any Lender, (v) postpone or extend any date fixed for any payment of any fees or other amounts payable hereunder (other than those otherwise specifically addressed in this Section 9.03), including an extension of the Maturity Date or the Commitment Termination Date, or (vi) amend, waive or consent to depart from Section 2.13(e) or Section 7.06;
