Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Amendment by facsimile or in “pdf” or similar format by electronic mail shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment.

11. Release; Indemnification

(a) Release. In further consideration of Administrative Agent’s, Collateral Agent’s and each Consenting Lender’s execution of this Amendment, the Borrower and the Guarantors, individually and on behalf of their successors (including any trustees or any debtor-in-possession acting on behalf of Borrower or a Guarantor), assigns, subsidiaries and affiliates, hereby forever release each of the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and the Lenders and their respective successors, assigns, parents, subsidiaries, and affiliates and their officers, employees, directors, agents and attorneys (collectively, the “Releasees”) from any and all debts, claims, demands, liabilities, responsibilities, disputes, causes, damages, actions and causes of actions (whether at law or in equity), and obligations of every nature whatsoever (other than any obligations to advance Loans under and in accordance with the Credit Agreement), whether liquidated or unliquidated, whether matured or unmatured, whether fixed or contingent that Borrower or any Guarantor has or may have against the Releasees, or any of them, in each case which arise from or relate to any actions which the Releasees, or any of them, have or may have taken or omitted to take in connection with the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents prior to the date hereof (including with respect to the Obligations, any Collateral and any third parties liable in whole or in part for the Obligations). This provision shall survive and continue in full force and effect whether or not the Loan Parties shall satisfy all other provisions of the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

(b) Related Indemnity. The Borrower and each Guarantor hereby agree that its release of the Releasees set forth in Section 11(a) hereof shall include an obligation to indemnify and hold the Releasees, or any of them, harmless with respect to any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever incurred by

the Releasees, or any of them, whether direct, indirect or consequential, as a result of or arising from or relating to any proceeding by, or on behalf of any Person, including officers, directors, agents, trustees, creditors, partners or shareholders of the Borrower or any Guarantor or any parent, subsidiary or affiliate of Borrower or such Guarantor, whether threatened or initiated, asserting any claim for legal or equitable remedy under any statutes, regulation, common law principle or otherwise arising from or in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery, performance, administration and enforcement of this Amendment or any other document executed in connection herewith; provided, that Borrower shall not be liable for any indemnification to a Releasee to the extent that any such liability, obligation, loss, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement results from the applicable Releasee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. The foregoing indemnity shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

12. Consent to Sixth Amendment to ABL Credit Agreement. In accordance with Section 5.2 of the Intercreditor Agreement as in effect immediately prior to the Third Amendment Effective Date, each of the undersigned Consenting Lenders hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to consent to, and the Administrative Agent hereby consents to the amendments to the ABL Credit Agreement effected by, the ABL Amendment in the form and substance attached as Annex A hereto.
