Pursuant to the Notice and Section 2.08(e) of the Credit Agreement, we deliver this response (this “Response Letter”) to confirm that each of the Company and Manufacturers & Traders Trust Company (the “Assuming Lender”) agrees that the Assuming Lender does hereby become a “Lender” under and for all purposes of the Credit Agreement with a Dollar Commitment equal to $75,000,000. Without limiting the foregoing, the Assuming Lender hereby agrees to be bound by and comply with all of the terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement applicable to it as a “Lender” thereunder and that it will perform in accordance with its terms all of the obligations which by the terms of the Credit Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender. The Assuming Lender represents and warrants that it has full power and authority, and has taken all action necessary, to execute and deliver this Response Letter and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and to become a Lender under the Credit Agreement.
This Response Letter shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. This Response Letter may be executed in any number of counterparts, which together shall constitute one instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Response Letter by telecopy, email, or other electronic method of transmission (e.g. PDF) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Response Letter.
