Amendments of Loan Instruments. Without derogating from the absolute nature of the assignment granted to the Administrative Agent under the Guarantee and Security Agreement or the rights of the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Borrower agrees (i) that it will not, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, amend, modify, waive, supplement, terminate or surrender, or agree to any amendment, modification, supplement, termination, waiver or surrender of, the terms of any Collateral (except to the extent otherwise permitted by the Sale and Servicing Agreement) or the Basic Documents, or waive timely performance or observance by the Servicer or the Depositor under the Sale and Servicing Agreement; and (ii) that no such amendment shall increase or reduce in any manner the amount of, or accelerate or delay the timing of, distributions that are required to be made for the benefit of the Lenders. If any such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver shall so be consented to by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower agrees, promptly following a request by the Administrative Agent to do so, to execute and deliver, in its own name and at its own expense, such agreements, instruments, consents and other documents as the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or appropriate in the circumstances.
