(c) Each Loan Party hereby represents and warrants as follows:
(i) Each Loan Party has taken all necessary corporate or limited liability company action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment.
(ii) This Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by the Loan Parties and constitutes each of the Loan Parties’ legal, valid and binding obligations, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by Debtor Relief Laws and general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).
(iii) No consent, approval, authorization or order of, or filing, registration or qualification with, any Governmental Authority or any other Person with respect to any Contractual Obligation is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance by any Loan Party of this Amendment other than those that have already been obtained and are in full force and effect or the failure of which to have obtained would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(d) The Loan Parties represent and warrant to the Lenders that (i) the representations and warranties of the Loan Parties set forth in Article VI of the Credit Agreement and in each other Loan Document are true and correct in all material respects (unless already qualified by materiality, in which case such representation and warranty is true and correct in all respects) as of the date hereof, except to the extent such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they shall be true and correct in all material respects (unless already qualified by materiality, in which case such representation and warranty is true and correct in all respects) as of such earlier date and (ii) no event has occurred and is continuing which constitutes a Default or an Event of Default.
(e) This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Amendment by telecopy shall be
CHAR1\1508711v5
effective as an original and shall constitute a representation that an executed original shall be delivered.
(f) THIS AMENDMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND ANY CLAIMS, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE) BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
