SECTION THREE. Representations and Warranties. The Loan Parties hereby represent and warrant that (i) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) the execution and delivery of this Amendment and the performance of this Amendment, the Credit Agreement as amended by this Amendment (the “Amended Agreement”) and each other Loan Document has been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of Holdings and the Borrower and (iii) this Amendment, the Amended Agreement and each other Loan Document, constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Loan Parties party thereto, enforceable against them in accordance with its terms except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity).

The Credit Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents, as specifically amended by this Amendment, are and 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, except as expressly provided herein, operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of any Lender or any Agent under any of the Loan Documents, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of any of the Loan Documents.
SECTION FIVE. Costs and Expenses. The Borrower agrees to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of this Amendment and the other instruments and documents to be delivered hereunder, if any.

This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Amendment by telecopier shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment.
