(ii) WestRock Company, or (iii) up to one other Customer approved by Administrative Agent in its Permitted Discretion in writing, a Receivable owing by such Customer may nevertheless be deemed by Administrative Agent to be an Eligible Receivable hereunder so long as each of the following conditions is satisfied: (1) such Receivable otherwise constitutes an Eligible Receivable hereunder (other than pursuant to clause (p) above); (2) the applicable factor shall have entered into a Factoring Agreement and an intercreditor agreement or other documentation reasonably required by Administrative Agent and such Factoring Agreement and intercreditor agreement or other documentation shall each be in full force and effect and in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent for purposes of including the applicable Receivables in the Borrowing Base; (3) such Receivable has not yet been sold or assigned pursuant to any Factoring Agreement; (4) no more than $10,000,000 in the aggregate of any such Receivables for all Customers subject to Factoring Agreements shall constitute Eligible Receivables at any one time; (5) Borrowers are in material compliance with all reasonable reporting requirements established by Administrative Agent from time to time regarding Borrowers' Factoring Agreements; and (6) no Event of Default then exists.

Each Guarantor hereby (i) consents to each Borrower's execution and delivery of this Amendment and of the other documents, instruments or agreements each Borrower agrees to execute and deliver pursuant thereto; (ii) agrees to be bound hereby; and (iii) affirms that nothing contained herein shall modify in any respect whatsoever its respective guaranty of the Obligations and reaffirms that such guaranty is and shall remain in full force and effect.

. Each Credit Party represents and warrants to Agents and Lenders, to induce Agents and Lenders to enter into this Amendment, that no Default or Event of Default exists on the date hereof; the execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment have been duly authorized by all requisite action on the part of such Credit Party and this Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by such Credit Party; and all of the representations and warranties made by such Credit Party in the Credit Agreement are true and correct on and as of the date hereof (except to the extent that any such representation and warranty expressly relates to a particular date, in which case such representation and warranty is true and correct on and as of such date).

. Upon the effectiveness of this Amendment, each reference in the Credit Agreement to "this Agreement," "hereunder," or words of like import shall mean and be a reference to the Credit Agreement, as amended by this Amendment.

. This Amendment shall be part of the Credit Agreement and a breach of any representation, warranty or covenant herein shall constitute an Event of Default.

. The effectiveness of this Amendment is subject to the satisfaction of each of the following conditions precedent, in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent, unless satisfaction thereof is specifically waived in writing by Administrative Agent:

(a)Administrative Agent shall have received from each Credit Party, Agent and Lender a duly executed original counterpart of this Amendment;

. This Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

. Each Credit Party agrees to take such further actions as Administrative Agent shall reasonably request from time to time in connection herewith to evidence or give effect to the amendments set forth herein or any of the transactions contemplated hereby.

. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties to this Amendment on separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts shall constitute one and the same agreement. Any manually executed signature page to this Amendment delivered by a party by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be deemed to be an original signature hereto. Section titles and references used in this Amendment shall be without substantive meaning or content of any kind whatsoever and are not a part of the agreements among the parties hereto. This Amendment expresses the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and may not be amended except in a writing signed by the parties.

. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each party hereby waives the right to trial by jury in any action, suit, counterclaim or proceeding arising out of or related to this Amendment.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Amendment to be duly executed and delivered by their respective duly authorized officers on the date first written above.
