(c) The execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment No. 2 is within each Loan Party’s corporate, limited liability company or limited partnership powers.
(d) None of the execution, delivery and/or performance of this Amendment No. 2 is in contravention of law or the terms of any Loan Party’s certificate or articles of incorporation, by laws, or other organizational documentation, or any indenture, agreement or undertaking to which any Borrower or Guarantor is a party or by which any Loan Party or its property are bound.
(e) The resolutions of the Board of Directors or Managers of each Loan Party delivered to Agent by such Loan Party on the date of the effectiveness of the Credit Agreement have not been revoked and are in full force and effect.
(f) All of the representations and warranties set forth in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, each as amended hereby, are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date hereof, as if made on the date hereof, except to the extent any such representation or warranty is made as of a specified date, in which case such representation or warranty shall have been true and correct as of such date.
