B. The Company and the Bank desire to amend certain of the Credit Documents as provided for in this Amendment.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Certain of the Credit Documents are amended as set forth in Exhibit A. Any and all references to any Loan Document in any other Loan Document shall be deemed to refer to such Loan Document as amended by this Amendment. This Amendment is deemed incorporated into each of the Credit Documents. Any initially capitalized terms used in this Amendment without definition shall have the meanings assigned to those terms in the Credit Documents. To the extent that any term or provision of this Amendment is or may be inconsistent with any term or provision in any Loan Document, the terms and provisions of this Amendment shall control.
2. The Company hereby certifies that: (a) all of its representations and warranties in the Credit Documents, as amended by this Amendment, are, except as may otherwise be stated in this Amendment: (i) true and correct as of the date of this Amendment, (ii) ratified and confirmed without condition as if made anew, and (iii) incorporated into this Amendment by reference, (b) no Event of Default or event which, with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both, would constitute an Event of Default, exists under any Loan Document which will not be cured by the execution and effectiveness of this Amendment, (c) no consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration or filing with, any third party is required in connection with the execution, delivery and carrying out of this Amendment or, if required, has been obtained, and (d) this Amendment has been duly authorized, executed and delivered so that it constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms. The Company confirms that the Obligations remain outstanding without defense, set off, counterclaim, discount or charge of any kind as of the date of this Amendment.
3. The Company hereby confirms that any collateral for the Obligations, including liens, security interests, mortgages, and pledges granted by the Company or third parties (if applicable), shall continue unimpaired and in full force and effect, and shall cover and secure all of the Company’s existing and future Obligations to the Bank, as modified by this Amendment.
4. As a condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Amendment, the Company shall comply with the terms and conditions (if any) specified in Exhibit A.
5. To induce the Bank to enter into this Amendment, the Company waives and releases and forever discharges the Bank and its officers, directors, attorneys, agents, and employees from any liability, damage, claim, loss or expense of any kind that it may have against the Bank or any of them arising out of or relating to the Obligations. The Company further agrees to indemnify and hold the Bank and its officers, directors, attorneys, agents and employees harmless from any loss, damage, judgment, liability or expense (including attorneys’ fees) suffered by or rendered against the Bank or any of them on account of any claims arising out of or relating to the Obligations. The Company further states that it has carefully read the foregoing release and indemnity, knows the contents thereof and grants the same as its own free act and deed.

6. This Amendment may be signed in any number of counterpart copies and by the parties to this Amendment on separate counterparts, but all such copies shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Amendment by facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart. Any party so executing this Amendment by facsimile transmission shall promptly deliver a manually executed counterpart, provided that any failure to do so shall not affect the validity of the counterpart executed by facsimile transmission.
7. This Amendment will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and the Bank and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns.
8. This Amendment has been delivered to and accepted by the Bank and will be deemed to be made in the State where the Bank’s office indicated in the Credit Documents is located. This Amendment will be interpreted and the rights and liabilities of the parties hereto determined in accordance with the laws of the State where the Bank’s office indicated in the Credit Documents is located, excluding its conflict of laws rules.
9. Except as amended hereby, the terms and provisions of the Credit Documents remain unchanged, are and shall remain in full force and effect unless and until modified or amended in writing in accordance with their terms, and are hereby ratified and confirmed. Except as expressly provided herein, this Amendment shall not constitute an amendment, waiver, consent or release with respect to any provision of any Loan Document, a waiver of any default or Event of Default under any Loan Document, or a waiver or release of any of the Bank’s rights and remedies (all of which are hereby reserved). The Company expressly ratifies and confirms and waiver of jury trial provisions contained in the Credit Documents.
