No delay on the part of any party on exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any waiver on the part of any party of any right, power or privilege, nor any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege, preclude any further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right, power or privilege.

Effects on Loan Documents Except as specifically amended herein or contemplated hereby, all Loan Documents shall continue to be in full force and effect and are hereby in all respects ratified and confirmed. The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of any Lender or the Administrative Agent under any of the Loan Documents, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents or in any way limit, impair or otherwise affect the rights and remedies of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents.

Nothing herein shall be deemed to entitle Holdings, the Borrowers nor the Subsidiary Guarantors to a further consent to, or a further waiver, amendment, modification or other change of, any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Credit Agreement as amended by this Amendment or any other Loan Document in similar or different circumstances.

(b) Guarantor waives any defense to its obligations hereunder based upon or arising by reason of: (i) any disability or other defense of any Obligor or any other Person; (ii) the cessation or limitation from any cause whatsoever, other than payment in full, of the Obligations or the indebtedness of any other Person; (iii) any lack of authority of any officer, director, partner, agent or any other Person acting or purporting to act on behalf of any Obligor, if it is a corporation, partnership or other type of entity, or any defect in the formation of any Obligor; (iv) the application by any Obligor of the proceeds of any Obligations for purposes other than the purposes represented by such Obligor to, or intended or understood by, WFBC or Guarantor; (v) any act or omission by WFBC which directly or indirectly results in or aids the discharge of any Obligor or any portion of the Obligations by operation of law or otherwise, or which in any way impairs or suspends any rights or remedies of WFBC against any Obligor; (vi) any impairment of the value of any interest in any security for the Obligations or any portion thereof, including without limitation, the failure to obtain or maintain perfection or recordation of any interest in any such security, the release of any such security without substitution, or the failure to preserve the value of, or to comply with applicable law in disposing of, any such security; (vii) any modification of the Obligations, in any form whatsoever, including any modification made after revocation hereof to any Obligations incurred prior to such revocation, and including without limitation the renewal, extension, acceleration or other change in time for payment of, or other change in the terms of, the Obligations or any portion thereof; or (viii) any requirement that WFBC give any notice of acceptance of this Guaranty. Until all Obligations have been paid in full, Guarantor shall have no right of subrogation, and Guarantor waives any right to enforce any remedy which WFBC now has or may hereafter have against any Obligor or any other Person, and waives any benefit of, or any right to participate in, any security now or hereafter held by WFBC. Guarantor further waives all rights and defenses Guarantor may have arising out of (A) any election of remedies by WFBC, even though that election of remedies, such as a non-judicial foreclosure with respect to any security for any portion of the Obligations, destroys Guarantor’s rights of subrogation or Guarantor’s rights to proceed against any Obligor for reimbursement, or (B) any loss of rights Guarantor may suffer by reason of any rights, powers or remedies of any Obligor in connection with any anti-deficiency laws or any other laws limiting, qualifying or discharging the Obligations, whether by operation of law or otherwise, including any rights Guarantor may have to a fair market value hearing to determine the size of a deficiency following any foreclosure sale or other disposition of any real property security for any portion of the Obligations.
