Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

Except as expressly set forth herein, the provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents are and shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the amendment of the Credit Agreement pursuant to this Amendment and all other Credit Documents amended and/or executed and delivered in connection herewith shall not constitute a novation of the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents as in effect prior to the Amendment No. 4 Effective Date. This Amendment shall constitute a “Credit Document” for all purposes of the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents. All references to the Credit Agreement in any document, instrument, agreement, or writing shall from after the Amendment No. 4 Effective Date be deemed to refer to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby, and, as used in the Credit Agreement, the terms “Agreement,” “herein,” “hereafter,” “hereunder,” “hereto” and words of similar import shall mean, from and after the Amendment No. 4 Effective Date, the Amended Credit Agreement.

Section 4.2. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of separate counterparts by the parties hereto (including by telecopy or via electronic mail), each of which counterparts when so executed shall be an original, but all the counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Amendment by facsimile or in electronic format (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment.

Section 4.3. Headings. Section and subsection headings in this Amendment are included herein for convenience only and shall not constitute a part of this Amendment for any other purpose or be given any substantive effect.

Section 4.4. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AMENDMENT AND ALL MATTERS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING IN ANY WAY WHATSOEVER TO THIS AMENDMENT (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

Section 4.5. Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. The provisions of Sections 10.15 and 10.16 of the Credit Agreement pertaining to consent to jurisdiction, service of process and waiver of jury trial are hereby incorporated by reference therein, mutatis mutandis.

Section 4.6. Reaffirmation. Each Credit Party expressly acknowledges that it has reviewed the terms of this Amendment, consents to the amendments to the Credit Agreement effected pursuant to this Amendment and reaffirms, as of the date hereof and on the Amendment No. 4 Effective Date, that its guarantee (if applicable) of the Obligations under the Credit Agreement and its grant of Liens on the Collateral to secure the Obligations pursuant to each Collateral Document to which it is a party, in each case, continues in full force and effect and extends to the obligations of the Credit Parties under the Credit Documents (including the Amended Credit Agreement) subject to any limitations set out in the Amended Credit Agreement and any other Credit Document applicable to that Credit Party. Neither the execution, delivery, performance or effectiveness of this Amendment nor the modification of the Credit Agreement effected pursuant hereto: (i) impairs the validity, effectiveness or priority of the Liens granted pursuant to any Credit Document, and such Liens continue unimpaired with the same priority to secure repayment of all Obligations, whether heretofore or hereafter incurred; or (ii) requires that any new filings be made or other action be taken to perfect or to maintain the perfection of such Liens.
