Person of any of their respective obligations under the Credit Agreement. 
 Each Lender whose Commitment is increased (or created) by
giving effect to this Amendment (each, an “Assignee”): (a) represents and warrants that (i) it has full power and authority, and has taken all action necessary, to execute and deliver this Amendment and to consummate the
transactions contemplated hereby and becomes a Lender under the Credit Agreement, (ii) it meets all the requirements to be an assignee under Section 8.07(b)(iii), (v) and (vi) of the Credit Agreement (subject to such consents, if
any, as may be required under Section 8.07(b)(iii) of the Credit Agreement), (iii) from and after the Effective Date (as defined below), it shall be bound by the provisions of the Credit Agreement as a Lender thereunder and, to the extent
of its Assigned Interest, shall have the obligations of a Lender thereunder, (iv) it is sophisticated with respect to decisions to acquire assets of the type represented by its Assigned Interest and either it, or the Person exercising
discretion in making its decision to acquire its Assigned Interest, is experienced in acquiring assets of such type, (v) it has received a copy of the Credit Agreement, and has received or has been accorded the opportunity to receive copies of
the most recent financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(h)(i) or (ii)







 
thereof, as applicable, and such other documents and information as it deems appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Amendment and to purchase its Assigned
Interest, (vi) it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Amendment and to
assume its Assigned Interest and (vii) attached hereto is the documentation required to be delivered by it pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, if any, duly completed and executed by such Assignee; and (b) agrees that (i) it
will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, any Assignor or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action
under the Credit Agreement, and (ii) it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of the Credit Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender. 

“Assigned Interest” means (i) all of the respective Assignors’ rights and obligations in their respective
capacities as Lenders under the Credit Agreement and any other documents or instruments delivered pursuant thereto to the extent related to the Commitments of the respective Assignors to the extent being assigned under this Agreement and
(ii) to the extent permitted to be assigned under applicable law, all claims, suits, causes of action and any other right of the respective Assignors (in their respective capacities as Lenders) against any Person, whether known or unknown,
arising under or in connection with the Credit Agreement, any other documents or instruments delivered pursuant thereto or the loan transactions governed thereby or in any way based on or related to any of the foregoing, including, but not limited
to, contract claims, tort claims, malpractice claims, statutory claims and all other claims at law or in equity related to the rights and obligations sold and assigned pursuant to clause (i) above.
