(b) to any counterparty under any Swap Agreement between the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and such counterparty, provided that such Swap Agreement was entered into prior to the time, or during the time, that such counterparty was a Lender (or an Affiliate of a Lender), even if such counterparty ceases to be a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender for any reason (each such counterparty, a “Secured Swap Party”) and

The Borrower hereby agrees to execute and deliver (and to cause each guarantor or grantor of collateral to execute and deliver) any amendments to any other Loan Document that the Administrative Agent deems reasonably necessary or desirable in order to effectuate or evidence (of public record or otherwise) the amendments to the Credit Agreement and Loan Documents set forth above or to replicate the substance thereof in such other Loan Document, each of such amendments to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.
