 6. Miscellaneous. 

(a) Severability. If any provision of this Amendment is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, such
provision shall be inapplicable to the extent of such invalidity without affecting the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this Amendment and the effect thereof shall be confined to the provision so held to be invalid or unenforceable.

 (b) Entire Agreement. This Amendment shall be deemed to be a Loan Document and, together with the other Loan Documents and the
agreements, documents and instruments contemplated hereby, constitutes the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and any other prior or contemporaneous agreements, whether written or oral, with
respect hereto or thereto are expressly superseded hereby and thereby. 
 (c) Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any
number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Amendment. Delivery
of an executed counterpart of this Amendment by facsimile or .pdf shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Amendment. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Amendment by facsimile or .pdf
also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Amendment but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Amendment. 

(d) Successors and Assigns. This Amendment shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their heirs,
beneficiaries, successors and assigns. 
 (e) Governing Law; Venue; Jury Trial. THIS AMENDMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE
