This Amendment also shall not preclude the future exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege available to the Lenders whether under the Credit Agreement, the other Credit Documents, at law or otherwise and nothing contained herein shall constitute a course of conduct or dealing among the parties hereto. All references to the Credit Agreement shall be deemed to mean the Credit Agreement as modified hereby. This Amendment shall not constitute a novation or satisfaction and accord of the Credit Agreement or the other Credit Documents, but shall constitute an amendment thereof. The parties hereto agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement and the Credit Documents as amended by this Amendment, as though such terms and conditions were set forth herein.

7.     Successors and Assigns. This Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each Credit Party and its successors and assigns and Lenders and their successors and assigns.

8.     FATCA. Company and the Credit Parties do not believe that the amendments made pursuant to this Amendment shall be treated as a “significant modification” of the Loans under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1001-3 and as such the Loans should still constitute a grandfathered obligation for the purposes of FATCA.  From and after the date hereof, Company and the Credit Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify the Administrative Agent and Lenders, and hold them harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including taxes and the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any of the foregoing, arising in connection with the Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ treating, for purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, the Loans as modified hereby as qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i).

9.     Further Assurance. Each Credit Party hereby agrees from time to time, as and when requested by any Lender, to execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered, all such documents, instruments and agreements and to take or cause to be taken such further or other action as such Lender may reasonably deem necessary or desirable in order to carry out the intent and purposes of this Amendment, the Credit Agreement, and the Credit Documents.

10.     GOVERNING LAW. THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PROVISIONS.

11.     Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Amendment shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Amendment shall be prohibited by or invalid under such law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Amendment.

12.    Reaffirmation. Each Credit Party as debtor, grantor, pledgor, guarantor or in other any other similar capacity hereby ratifies and reaffirms all of its payment and performance obligations, contingent or otherwise, under each of the Credit Documents to which it is a party. Each Credit Party hereby consents to this Amendment and acknowledges that each of the Credit Documents remains in full force and effect and is hereby ratified and reaffirmed. Except as expressly set forth herein, the execution of this Amendment shall not operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of the Lenders, constitute a waiver of any provision of any of the Credit Documents or serve to effect a novation of the Obligations.

13.     Acknowledgment of Rights; Release of Claims. Each Credit Party hereby acknowledges that: (a) it has no defenses, claims or set-offs to the enforcement by any Lender or Agent of Credit Parties’ liabilities, obligations and agreements on the date hereof; (b) to its knowledge, each Lender and Agent have fully performed all undertakings and obligations owed to it as of the date hereof; and (c) except to the limited extent expressly set forth in this Amendment, each Lender and Agent do not waive, diminish or limit any term or condition contained in the Credit Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents. Each Credit Party hereby waives, releases, remises and forever discharges the Lenders and Agents, their agents, employees, officers, directors, predecessors, attorneys and all others acting or purporting to act on behalf of or at the direction of the Lenders and Agents (“Releasees”) from any and all claims, suits, actions, investigations, proceedings or demands, whether based in contract, tort, implied or express warranty, strict liability, criminal or civil statute or common law of any kind or character, to the extent known on or prior to the date hereof, which the Company or any other Credit Party ever had or now has against the any of the Releasees which relates, directly or indirectly, to the Loans or the Credit Documents or any acts or omissions of the Releasees in respect of the Loans or the Credit Documents and arising from any event occurring on or prior to the date hereof.
