(b) | this letter comprises the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrowers enforceable in accordance with its terms. |
4 | Amendment Fee. The approval and consent of the Lender to the arrangements set out in this Letter is subject to the payment by the Borrowers to the Lender on the date of this Letter of an a non-refundable arrangement fee of $30,000. |
5 | Notices. Clause 27 (Notices) of the Loan Agreement shall extend and apply to this letter as if the same was (mutatis mutandis) herein expressly set forth. |
