4.6 This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be changed, waived, discharged, modified or terminated orally, but only by an instrument in writing signed by the parties required to be a party thereto pursuant to the Loan Agreement.
4.7 This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (including by facsimile or as a .pdf attachment), and by the different parties hereto on the same or separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original instrument but all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by telecopier, facsimile machine, portable document format (“PDF”) or other electronic means shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall have the same force and effect as manually signed originals and shall be binding on the applicable signatories. Administrative Agent may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually signed original thereof; provided, however, that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile document or signature. No party may raise the use of a telecopier, facsimile machine, PDF or other electronic means, or the fact that any signature was transmitted through the use of a telecopier, facsimile machine, PDF or other electronic means, as a defense to the enforcement of this Agreement.
