Section 7. Reaffirmation of Liens. Each Credit Party (a) is party to certain Security Documents securing and supporting the Obligations under the Loan Documents, (b) represents and warrants that it has no defenses to the enforcement of the Security Documents and that according to their terms the Security Documents will continue in full force and effect to secure the Obligations under the Loan Documents, as the same may be amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified, and (c) acknowledges, represents, and warrants that the liens and security interests created by the Security Documents are valid and subsisting and create an acceptable security interest in the collateral to secure the Obligations under the Loan Documents, as the same may be amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified.

Section 8. Counterparts. This Amendment may be signed 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 taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Transmission by facsimile or other electronic transmission of an executed counterpart of this Amendment shall be deemed to constitute due and sufficient delivery of such counterpart.

Section 9. Successors and Assigns. This Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted pursuant to the Credit Agreement.

Section 10. Invalidity. In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained in this Amendment shall for any reason be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Amendment.

Section 12. Instruction to Administrative Agent. The Lenders hereby (i) authorize and instruct the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver this Amendment and the Approved Permitted First Lien Intercreditor Agreement (as defined in the Credit Agreement after giving effect to this Amendment) and (ii) acknowledge and agree that the instruction set forth in this Section 12 constitutes an instruction from the Lenders under the Loan Documents, including Section 9.03 and Section 9.04 of the Credit Agreement.

Section 13. RELEASE. For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each Credit Party hereby, for itself and its successors and assigns, fully and without reserve, releases, acquits, and forever discharges each Secured Party, its respective successors and assigns, officers, directors, employees, representatives, trustees, attorneys, agents and affiliates (collectively the “Released Parties” and individually a “Released Party”) from any and all actions, claims, demands, causes of action, judgments, executions, suits, debts, liabilities, costs, damages, expenses or other obligations of any kind and nature whatsoever, direct and/or indirect, at law or in equity, whether now existing or hereafter asserted, whether absolute or contingent, whether due or to become due, whether disputed or undisputed, whether known or unknown (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY OFFSETS, REDUCTIONS, REBATEMENT, CLAIMS OF USURY OR CLAIMS WITH RESPECT TO THE NEGLIGENCE OF ANY RELEASED PARTY) (collectively, the “Released Claims”), for or because of any matters or things occurring, existing or actions done, omitted to be done, or suffered to be done by any of the Released Parties, in each case, on or prior to the Effective Date and are in any way directly or indirectly arising out of or in any way connected to any of this Amendment, the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (collectively, the “Released Matters”). Each Credit Party, by execution hereof, hereby acknowledges and agrees that the agreements in this Section 13 are intended to cover and be in full satisfaction for all or any alleged injuries or damages arising in connection with the Released Matters herein compromised and settled. Each Credit Party hereby further agrees that it will not xxx any Released Party on the basis of any Released Claim released, remised and discharged by the Credit Parties pursuant to this Section 13. In entering into this Amendment, each Credit Party consulted with, and has been represented by, legal counsel and expressly disclaim any reliance on any representations, acts or omissions by any of the Released Parties and hereby agrees and acknowledges that the validity and effectiveness of the releases set forth herein do not depend in any way on any such representations, acts and/or omissions or the accuracy, completeness or validity hereof. The provisions of this Section 13 shall survive the termination of this Amendment, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and payment in full of the Obligations.

Section 14. Entire Agreement. This Amendment, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede any prior agreements, written or oral, with respect thereto.
