in all respects hereby ratified and confirmed and neither the execution, delivery nor effectiveness of this Amendment shall operate as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default (whether or not known to the Agents, the Security Trustee or any

occurring prior to the date hereof or facts otherwise known to it as of the date hereof, the effectiveness, genuineness, validity, collectibility or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, the Obligations, the
Liens securing such Obligations, or any of the terms or conditions of any Loan Document and (ii) it does not possess (and hereby forever waives, remises, releases, discharges and holds harmless the Lenders, the Agents, the Security Trustee and their
respective affiliates, stockholders, directors, officers, employees, attorneys, agents and representatives and each of their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) from
and against, and agrees not to allege or pursue) any action, cause of action, suit, debt, claim, counterclaim, cross-claim, demand, defense, offset, opposition, demand and other right of action whatsoever, whether in law, equity or otherwise (which
it, all those claiming by, through or under it, or its successors or assigns, have or may have) against the Indemnified Parties, or any of them, by reason of any matter, cause or thing whatsoever, with respect to events or omissions occurring or
arising on or prior to the date hereof and relating to the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, with respect to the payment, performance, validity or enforceability of the Obligations, the Liens
securing the Obligations or any or all of the terms or conditions of any Loan Document) or any transaction relating thereto.

confirmed.
