Affirmation and Consent The Administrative Agent shall have received, with counterparts for each Lender, a duly executed copy of an Affirmation and Consent, dated as of the Amendment Effective Date, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, duly executed and delivered by each of the Loan Parties (other than the Borrowers).
Ratification and Reaffirmation Each Borrower hereby ratifies and reaffirms the Obligations, each of the Loan Documents and all of such Borrower's covenants, duties, indebtedness and liabilities under the Loan Documents.
Ratification by Guarantors Each of the Guarantors acknowledges that its consent to this Amendment is not required, but each of the undersigned nevertheless does hereby agree and consent to this Amendment and to the documents and agreements referred to herein. Each of the Guarantors agrees and acknowledges that (i) notwithstanding the effectiveness of this Amendment, such Guarantor’s guaranty shall remain in full force and effect without modification thereto and (ii) nothing herein shall in any way limit any of the terms or provisions of such Guarantor’s guaranty or any other Loan Document executed by such Guarantor (as the same may be amended from time to time), all of which are hereby ratified, confirmed and affirmed in all respects. Each of the Guarantors hereby agrees and acknowledges that no other agreement, instrument, consent or document shall be required to give effect to this section. Each of the Guarantors hereby further acknowledges that Borrower, the Administrative Agent and any Lender may from time to time enter into any further amendments, modifications, terminations and/or waivers of any provisions of the Loan Documents without notice to or consent from such Guarantor and without affecting the validity or enforceability of such Guarantor’s guaranty or giving rise to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination of such Guarantor’s guaranty.
Reaffirmation of the Guaranty Each Guarantor hereby ratifies, confirms, acknowledges and agrees that its obligations under its Guaranty are in full force and effect and that such Guarantor continues to unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee the full and punctual payment, when due, whether at stated maturity or earlier by acceleration or otherwise, all of the Guaranteed Obligations (as defined in its Guaranty), as such Guaranteed Obligations may have been amended by this Agreement, and its execution and deliver of this Agreement does not indicate or establish an approval or consent requirement by such Guarantor under its Guaranty in connection with the execution and delivery of amendments to the Credit Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents.
Payment by Guarantor If all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations shall not be punctually paid when due, whether at demand, maturity, acceleration or otherwise, Guarantor shall, immediately upon demand by Lender, and without presentment, protest, notice of protest, notice of non-payment, notice of intention to accelerate the maturity, notice of acceleration of the maturity, or any other notice whatsoever, pay in lawful money of the United States of America, the amount due on the Guaranteed Obligations to Lender at Lender’s address as set forth herein. Such demand(s) may be made at any time coincident with or after the time for payment of all or part of the Guaranteed Obligations, and may be made from time to time with respect to the same or different items of Guaranteed Obligations. Such demand shall be deemed made, given and received in accordance with the notice provisions hereof.
Waivers by Guarantor To the extent permitted by law, Guarantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert or take advantage of (a) any right to require Lender to proceed against any other person or to proceed against or exhaust any security held by Lender at any time or to pursue any other remedy in Lender’s power or under any other agreement before proceeding against Guarantor hereunder; (b) any defense that may arise by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority, death or disability of any other person or persons or the failure of Lender to file or enforce a claim against the estate (in administration, bankruptcy or any other proceeding) of any other person or persons; (c) demand, presentment for payment, notice of nonpayment, protest, notice of protest and all other notices of any kind, or the lack of any thereof, including, without limitation, notice of the existence, creation or incurring of any new or additional indebtedness or obligation or of any action or non-action on the part of Lender, any endorser or creditor of either Guarantor or any other person whomsoever under this or any other instrument in connection with any obligation or evidence of indebtedness held by Lender; (d) any defense based upon an election of remedies by Lender; (e) any right or claim of right to cause a marshaling of the assets of either Guarantor or Borrower; (f) any principle or provision of law, statutory or otherwise, which is or might be in conflict with the terms and provisions of this Guaranty; (g) any duty on the part of Lender to disclose to Guarantor any facts Lender may know about the Collateral or Borrower, regardless of whether Lender has reason to believe that any such facts materially increase the risk beyond that which Guarantor intends to assume or has reason to believe that such facts are unknown to Guarantor or has a reasonable opportunity to communicate such facts to Guarantor, it being understood and agreed that Guarantor is fully responsible for being and keeping informed of the condition of the Collateral or Borrower and of any and all circumstances bearing on the risk that liability may be incurred by Guarantor; (h) any lack of notice of disposition or of manner of disposition of any collateral for the Loan; (i) any invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability, in whole or in part, of any of the Loan Documents; (j) any deficiencies in the collateral for the Loan or any deficiency in the ability of Lender to collect or to obtain performance from any persons or entities now or hereafter liable for the payment and performance of any obligation hereby guaranteed; (k) any assertion or claim that the automatic stay provided by 11 U.S.C. §362 or any other stay provided under any other Guarantor relief law of any jurisdiction whatsoever, now or hereafter in effect, shall operate to stay or inhibit the ability of Lender to enforce any of its rights which Lender may have against Guarantor, or the collateral for the Loan; (l) any modifications of the Loan Documents or any obligation of Borrower relating to the Loan by operation of law or by action of any court, whether pursuant to Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended, or any other Guarantor relief law of any jurisdiction whatsoever, now or hereafter in effect, or otherwise; and (m) any action, occurrence, event or matter consented to by Guarantor under any provision hereof, or otherwise.

Reaffirmation Each of the Credit Parties that is a party hereto, as debtor, grantor, pledgor, guarantor, assignor, or in other any other similar capacity in which such Credit Party grants liens or security interests in its property or otherwise acts as accommodation party or guarantor, as the case may be, hereby (i) ratifies and reaffirms all of its payment and performance obligations, contingent or otherwise, under each of the Financing Documents to which it is a party (after giving effect hereto) and (ii) to the extent such Credit Party granted liens on or security interests in any of its property pursuant to any such Financing Document as security for or otherwise guaranteed the Borrowers’ Obligations under or with respect to the Financing Documents, ratifies and reaffirms such guarantee and grant of security interests and liens and confirms and agrees that such security interests and liens hereafter secure all of the Obligations as amended hereby. Each of the Credit Parties hereby consents to this Amendment and acknowledges that each of the Financing Documents remains in full force and effect and is hereby ratified and reaffirmed, subject to the amendments, consents and waivers set forth herein. The execution of this Amendment shall not operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of the Agent or Lenders or constitute a waiver of any provision of any of the Financing Documents (except as expressly set forth herein) or serve to effect a novation of the Obligations.
Payment by Guarantors Subject to Section 7.2, Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree, in furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Beneficiary may have at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, that upon the failure of Borrower to pay any of the Guaranteed Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a)), Guarantors will upon demand pay, or cause to be paid, in Cash, to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of Beneficiaries, an amount equal to the sum of the unpaid principal amount of all Guaranteed Obligations then due as aforesaid, accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations (including interest which, but for Borrower’s becoming the subject of a case under the Bankruptcy Code, would have accrued on such Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not a claim is allowed against Borrower for such interest in the related bankruptcy case) and all other Guaranteed Obligations then owed to Beneficiaries as aforesaid.
