Section 1.01 Reaffirmation. Each of the Guarantors hereby consents to the Credit Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby. Each of the Reaffirming Parties hereby confirms its respective guarantees, pledges and grants of security interests, as applicable, under each of the Original Loan Documents to which it is party, and agrees that, notwithstanding the effectiveness of the Credit Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, such guarantees, pledges and grants of security interests shall continue to be in full force and effect and shall accrue to the benefit of the Secured Parties.

The Company hereby agrees, acknowledges and confirms that its grant of a security interest under the Original Collateral Documents secures all of the Obligations, direct or indirect, contingent or absolute, matured or unmatured, now or at any time and from time to time hereafter due or owing to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, arising under or in connection with the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
