V. Borrower represents that, to its knowledge, (other than certain Events of Default which
Bank has agreed to waive, on a one time basis, pursuant to a separate letter to Borrower dated January 7,
2016) no Event of Default has occurred or is occurring under the terms of the Agreement or under any other Loan Documents, and that no circumstances exist such that but for a lapse of time or the giving of
notice an Event of Default would exist under any such agreements and that all of the covenants,
representations and warranties contained in the Agreement remain true as of the date hereof except with respect to those which are made with respect to specified earlier dates.
VI. The execution, delivery, and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not operate as a waiver of any right, power, or remedy of Bank under the Agreement or other Loan Documents, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents. This Amendment shall not affect, alter, amend, or waive any right, power or remedy of Bank by virtue of any Borrower’s actions or failure to take certain actions which constitute a default or an Event of Default under the Agreement or any of the Loan Documents.
VII. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties
hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which shall be taken together and constitute one and the same agreement. Signatures may be made and delivered by telefax or other similar method which shall be effective as originals.
