6.No Novation. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as a substitution or novation of the Obligations outstanding under the Loan Agreement or instruments securing the same, which shall remain in full force and effect, except as modified hereby.

7.No Representations by Agent or Lenders. Each Obligor hereby acknowledges that it has not relied on any representation, written or oral, express or implied, by Agent or any Lender, other than those expressly contained herein, in entering into this Amendment.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent and the Lenders wish (and the Obligors agree) to eliminate any possibility that any conditions, acts, omissions, events or circumstances arising prior to the Fourth Amendment Effective Date directly out of, connected with or related to this Amendment, the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document, would impair or otherwise adversely affect any of their rights, interests, security and/or remedies under the Loan Documents.

Each Obligor represents and warrants, as of the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, that it has no knowledge of any Claim by any Releasor against any Released Party or of any facts or acts or omissions of any Released Party which on the date hereof would be the basis of a Claim by any Releasor against any Released Party which would not be released hereby.

10.Miscellaneous.

Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Amendment by PDF or electronic mail shall be equally effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Amendment.

(b)Section and paragraph headings herein are included for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Amendment for any other purpose.

(d)UNLESS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, THIS AMENDMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND ALL CLAIMS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD SELECT THE LAWS OF A DIFFERENT STATE EXCEPT FEDERAL LAWS RELATING TO NATIONAL BANKS.

(e)Each Obligor hereby acknowledges and agrees that this Amendment constitutes a “Loan Document” under the Amended Loan Agreement.

(f)Any provision of this Amendment that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining portions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.
