Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Amendment by telefacsimile or other electronic image scan transmission also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Amendment but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Amendment.
(b) Any provision of this Amendment which is prohibited or unenforceable shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof in that jurisdiction or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. Each provision of this Amendment shall be severable from every other provision of this Amendment for the purpose of determining the legal enforceability of any specific provision.
(c) Headings and numbers have been set forth herein for convenience only. Unless the contrary is compelled by the context, everything contained in each Section applies equally to this entire Amendment.
(d) Neither this Amendment nor any uncertainty or ambiguity herein shall be construed against any member of the Lender Group or any Loan Party, whether under any rule of construction or otherwise, on the basis that this Amendment has been drafted by any such Person. This Amendment has been reviewed by all parties and shall be construed and interpreted according to the ordinary meaning of the words used so as to accomplish fairly the purposes and intentions of all parties hereto.
(e) Although each Guarantor has been informed of the matters set forth herein and has agreed to same, such Guarantor understands that neither Agent nor any Lender has any obligation to inform it of such matters in the future or to seek its acknowledgment or agreement to future amendments, and nothing herein shall create such a duty.

Section, subsection, clause, schedule, and exhibit references herein are to this Amendment unless otherwise specified. Any reference in this Amendment to any agreement, instrument, or document shall include all alterations, amendments, changes, extensions, modifications, renewals, replacements, substitutions, joinders, and supplements, thereto and thereof, as applicable (subject to any restrictions on such alterations, amendments, changes, extensions, modifications, renewals, replacements, substitutions, joinders, and supplements set forth herein). Any reference herein to the satisfaction, repayment, or payment in full of the Obligations shall mean the repayment in full in cash (or cash collateralization in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement) of all Obligations other than contingent indemnification Obligations and other than any Bank Product Obligations that, at such time, are allowed by the applicable Bank Product Provider to remain outstanding and are not required to be repaid or cash collateralized pursuant to the provisions of the Credit Agreement and the full and final termination of any commitment to extend any financial accommodations under the Credit Agreement and any other Loan Document. The words “asset” and “property” shall be
16
construed to have the same meaning and effect and to refer to any and all tangible and intangible assets and properties, including cash, securities, accounts, and contract rights. Any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns. Any requirement of a writing contained herein shall be satisfied by the transmission of a Record.
