(c)No registration with, consent, or approval of, or notice to, or other action with or by, any Governmental Authority is required in connection with the execution and delivery by it of this Second Amendment and the performance by it of this Second Amendment and the Credit Agreement (as modified by Amendment No. 4 (as amended hereby)) or the documents and instruments executed in connection herewith, other than registrations, consents, approvals, notices, or other actions that have been obtained and that are still in force and effect.
2

(e)No injunction, writ, restraining order, or other order of any nature prohibiting, directly or indirectly, the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein has been issued and remains in force by any Governmental Authority against any Borrower, any Guarantor, Agent, or any Lender.

Each Credit Party further agrees that it shall not dispute the validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any of its obligations thereunder, or the validity, priority, enforceability or the extent of Agent’s Lien on any item of Collateral under the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents.
