(a) Continued Effectiveness of the Loan Agreement and the Other Documents. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are, and shall continue to be, in full
force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects, except that on and after the Sixth Amendment Effective Date (i) all references in the Loan Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereto”, “hereof”, “hereunder” or words of like
import referring to the Loan Agreement shall mean the Loan Agreement as amended by this Sixth Amendment and (ii) all references in the Other Documents to the “Loan Agreement”, “thereto”, “thereof”, “thereunder” or words of like import referring
to the Loan Agreement shall mean the Loan Agreement as amended by this Sixth Amendment. To the extent that the Loan Agreement or any Other Document purports to pledge to Agent, or to grant to Agent, a security interest or lien, such pledge or
grant is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects. Except as expressly provided herein, the execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Sixth Amendment shall not operate as an amendment of any right, power or remedy of Agent and the
Lenders under the Loan Agreement or any Other Document, nor constitute an amendment of any provision of the Loan Agreement or any Other Document.
(b) Counterparts. This Sixth Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which taken
together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Sixth Amendment by fax or electronic mail shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Sixth Amendment.
Original signature pages shall promptly be provided to Agent.
11
(c) Headings. Section headings herein are included for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Sixth Amendment for any other purpose.
(d) Costs and Expenses. Borrowers agree to pay on demand all fees, costs and expenses of Agent and the Lenders in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of this Sixth Amendment.
(e) Sixth Amendment as Other Document. Each Loan Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that this Sixth Amendment constitutes an “Other Document” under the Loan Agreement. Accordingly, it shall be an Event of Default under
the Loan Agreement if (i) any representation or warranty made by any Loan Party under or in connection with this Sixth Amendment, which representation or warranty is (A) subject to a materiality or a Material Adverse Effect qualification, shall
have been incorrect in any respect when made or deemed made, or (B) not subject to a materiality or a Material Adverse Effect qualification, shall have been incorrect in any material respect when made or deemed made or (ii) any Loan Party shall
fail to perform or observe any term, covenant or agreement contained in this Sixth Amendment (subject to any applicable notice or grace periods under the Loan Agreement).
(f) Severability. Any provision of this Sixth Amendment that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without
invalidating the remaining portions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.
(g) Governing Law. This Sixth Amendment shall be governed by and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.
(h) Waiver of Jury Trial. THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS SIXTH AMENDMENT OR ANY OF THE
