The Majority in Interest of the Lenders and Borrower may, or, with the written consent of the Majority in Interest of the Lenders, parties to the Operative Agreements may, from time to time, and Security Agent shall, at the direction of the Majority in Interest of the Lenders, (unless its respective rights or obligations as Security Agent are adversely affected thereby), (i) enter into written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto and to the other Operative Agreements for the purpose of adding any provisions to this Mortgage or the other Operative Agreements or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders, Security Agent or Borrower hereunder or thereunder or (ii) waive, on such terms and conditions as the Majority in Interest of the Lenders may specify in such instrument, any of the requirements of this Mortgage or the other Operating Agreements or any Default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided, however, that no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall (A) modify this Section 7.1, or Article 2 or Article 3 or Sections 5.1, 5.2(b) or 5.2(c), the definition of “Event of Default”, “Default”, (B) forgive the principal amount or extend the final scheduled date of maturity of any Equipment Note, extend the scheduled date of any payment of principal of any Equipment Note, reduce the stated rate of any interest payable on any Equipment Note or any interest or fee payable hereunder or extend the scheduled date of any payment thereof, or increase the amount or extend the expiration date of the Commitments, in each case without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; (C) eliminate or reduce the voting rights of any Lender under this Section 7 without the written consent of such Lender; (D)(w) reduce any percentage specified in the definition of Majority in Interest of the Lenders, (x) consent to the assignment or transfer by Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Mortgage and the other Operative Agreements or (y) reduce, modify or amend any indemnities in favor of Security Agent or the Lenders without the consent of each person effected thereby; (E) amend, modify or waive any provision of Sections 5.7, 5.8, 5.9, 5.10, 7.1, 7.2 or 7.3 without the written consent of Security Agent; or (F) take any action inconsistent with the provisions of Sections 10.8 or 11.1 of the Loan Agreement. Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon Borrower, the Lenders, Security Agent and all future holders of the Equipment Notes. In the case of any waiver, Borrower, the Lenders and Security Agent shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the other Operative Agreements, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon. Each such amendment, supplement, waiver, modification, discharge, termination, or variance shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it is given. No provision of this Mortgage shall be varied or contradicted by oral communication, course of dealing or performance, or other manner not set forth in writing and signed by the party against whom enforcement of the same is sought.
