SECTION 3. CERTAIN AMENDMENTS, AGREEMENTS, AND COVENANTS
3.1.    Amendments to the Third Forbearance Agreement. In reliance upon the representations, warranties, and covenants of Borrower and Parent contained herein, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Amendment and any documents or instruments executed in connection herewith, effective as of the date hereof, the Third Forbearance Agreement is hereby amended as follows:
(a)The definition of "Forbearance Period" set forth in Section 1.2(b) of the Third Forbearance Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the reference to "November 13, 2015" contained in subsection (i) thereof and replacing such reference with "November 20, 2015".
(b)Section 4.9 of the Third Forbearance Agreement is hereby amended by: (1) deleting the reference to "October 30, 2015" therein and replacing such reference with "November 6, 2015"; and, (2) deleting the reference to "November 6, 2015" therein and replacing such reference with "November 9, 2015."
(c)The Budget attached at Exhibit A to the Third Forbearance Agreement (Budget) is hereby deemed supplemented by the one (1) week period set forth at Exhibit A hereto.
(d)Exhibit B attached to the Third Forbearance Agreement (Existing Defaults) is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as set forth at Exhibit B hereto.
3.2.    No Waivers; Reservation of Rights.
(a)Agent and Lenders have not waived, are not by this Amendment waiving, and have no intention of waiving, any Events of Default which may be continuing on the date hereof or any Events of Default which may occur after the date hereof (whether the same or similar to the Existing Defaults or otherwise), and Agent and Lenders have not agreed to forbear 





Exhibit 10.5


with respect to any of their rights or remedies concerning any Events of Default (other than, during the Forbearance Period, the Existing Defaults to the extent expressly set forth in the Third Forbearance Agreement) occurring at any time.
(b)Subject to Section 3.2 of the Third Forbearance Agreement (solely with respect to the Existing Defaults), Agent and Lenders reserve the right, in their discretion, to exercise any or all of their rights and remedies under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as a result of any other Events of Default occurring at any time.  Agent and Lenders have not waived any of such rights or remedies, and nothing in this Amendment, and no delay on their part in exercising any such rights or remedies, may or will be construed as a waiver of any such rights or remedies.
3.3.    Additional Events of Default.  The parties hereto acknowledge, confirm, and agree that any misrepresentation by any Loan Party, or any failure of any Loan Party to comply with the covenants, conditions, and agreements contained in this Amendment or in the Third Forbearance Agreement will constitute an immediate Event of Default under this Amendment, the Third Forbearance Agreement, and each of the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the existence of the Forbearance Period, in the event that any Person, other than Agent or Lenders, at any time exercises for any reason (including, without limitation, by reason of any Existing Defaults, any other present or future Event of Default, or otherwise) any of its rights or remedies against any Loan Party or any other obligor providing credit support for the Obligations, or against any Loan Party's or such other obligor's properties or assets, in each case, of the type that would constitute an Event of Default under the terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then such occurrence shall also be deemed to constitute an immediate Event of Default hereunder and under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
SECTION 4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
Each Loan Party hereby represents, warrants, and covenants as follows:
4.1.    Representations in the Credit Agreement and the Other Loan Documents.  Each of the representations and warranties made by or on behalf of any Loan Party to Agent or any Lender in the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents was true and correct in all material respects when made, and is, except (a) for the Existing Defaults (or the facts and circumstances resulting therein), (b) to the extent updated by amended and restated disclosure schedules provided to Agent and certified by an officer of Borrower, or (c) to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date, true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of this Amendment with the same full force and effect as if each of such representations and warranties had been made by such Loan Party on the date hereof and in this Amendment; provided, that all such foregoing materiality modifiers shall not apply in respect of those representations and warranties that by their terms are subject to conditions of materiality under the Credit Agreement.

6.6.    Release.

(c)Each Loan Party agrees that no fact, event, circumstance, evidence, or transaction which could now be asserted or which may hereafter be discovered will affect in any manner the final, absolute, and unconditional nature of the release set forth above.





Exhibit 10.5


6.7.    Covenant Not to Sue.  Each Loan Party hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably covenants and agrees with and in favor of each Releasee that it will not sue (at law, in equity, in any regulatory proceeding, or otherwise) any Releasee on the basis of any Claim released, remised, and discharged by any Releasing Party pursuant to Section 6.6 above.  If any Releasing Party violates the foregoing covenant, each Loan Party, for itself and its successors and assigns, and its present and former members, managers, shareholders, affiliates, subsidiaries, divisions, predecessors, directors, officers, attorneys, employees, agents, legal representatives, and other representatives, agrees to pay, in addition to such other damages as any Releasee may sustain as a result of such violation, all attorneys' fees and costs incurred by any Releasee as a result of such violation.


6.8.    Severability.  Any provision of this Amendment held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable will not impair or invalidate the remainder of this Amendment.


6.9.    Reviewed by Attorneys.  Each Loan Party represents and warrants to Agent and Lenders that it (a) understands fully the terms of this Amendment and the consequences of the execution and delivery of this Amendment; (b) has been afforded an opportunity to discuss this Amendment with, and have this Amendment reviewed by, such attorneys and other persons as any Loan Party may wish; and (c) has entered into this Amendment and executed and delivered all documents in connection herewith of its own free will and accord and without threat, duress, or other coercion of any kind by any Person.  The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that neither this Amendment nor the other documents executed pursuant hereto will be construed more favorably in favor of one than the other based upon which party drafted the same, it being acknowledged that all parties hereto contributed substantially to the negotiation and preparation of this Amendment and the other documents executed pursuant hereto or in connection herewith.


6.10.    Disgorgement.  If Agent or any Lender is, for any reason, compelled by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to surrender or disgorge any payment, interest, or other consideration described hereunder to any person because the same is determined to be void or voidable as a preference, fraudulent conveyance, impermissible set-off or for any other reason, such indebtedness or part thereof intended to be satisfied by virtue of such payment, interest, or other consideration will be revived and continue as if such payment, interest, or other consideration had not been received by Agent or such Lender, and Loan Parties will be liable to, and will indemnify, defend, and hold Agent or such Lender harmless for, the amount of such payment or interest surrendered or disgorged.  The provisions of this Section will survive repayment of the Obligations or any termination of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document.


6.11.    Tolling of Statute of Limitations.  Each and every statute of limitations or other applicable law, rule, or regulation governing the time by which Agent must commence legal proceedings or otherwise take any action against any Loan Party with respect to any breach or default that exists on or prior to the expiration or termination of the Forbearance Period and arises under or in respect of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be tolled during the Forbearance Period.  Each Loan Party agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, not to include such period of time as a defense (whether equitable or legal) to any legal proceeding or other action by Agent in the exercise of its rights or remedies referred to in the immediately preceding sentence.


6.12.    Relationship.  Each Loan Party agrees that the relationship between it, on one hand, and Agent and Lenders, on the other hand, is that of creditor and debtor and not that of partners or joint venturers.  This Amendment does not constitute a partnership agreement or any other association among the parties.  Each Loan Party acknowledges that Agent and each Lender has acted at all times only as a creditor to it within the normal and usual scope of the activities normally undertaken by a creditor and in no event has Agent or any Lender attempted to exercise any control over it or its business or affairs.  Each Loan Party further acknowledges that Agent and each Lender has not taken or failed to take any action under or in connection with its respective rights under the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents that in any way, or to any extent, has interfered with or adversely affected its ownership of Collateral.


6.13.    No Effect on Rights Under Subordination and Intercreditor Agreements.  Agent's and Lenders' agreement to forbear pursuant to Section 3.2 of the Third Forbearance Agreement shall not extend to any of their respective rights or remedies under any subordination, intercreditor, or similar agreement to which Agent or any Lender is party, it being understood that the Existing Defaults shall at all times constitute Events of Default for purposes of any and all such agreements notwithstanding such agreement to forbear in Section 3.2 of the Third Forbearance Agreement, and Agent and Lenders shall at all times be permitted to enforce all rights and remedies in respect thereof (including, without limitation, blocking payments to any holders of subordinated obligations in accordance with the terms of such agreements).


6.14.    Governing Law: Consent to Jurisdiction and Venue.  EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THE CREDIT AGREEMENT AND ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, THIS AMENDMENT, THE THIRD FORBEARANCE AGREEMENT, THE CREDIT AGREEMENT, AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER WILL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, WITHOUT 





Exhibit 10.5


REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES.  EACH LOAN PARTY HEREBY CONSENTS AND AGREES THAT THE STATE OR FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN COOK COUNTY, ILLINOIS WILL HAVE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN IT AND AGENT OR ANY LENDER PERTAINING TO THIS AMENDMENT OR THE CREDIT AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AMENDMENT OR THE CREDIT AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS; AND FURTHER PROVIDED, THAT NOTHING IN THIS AMENDMENT WILL BE DEEMED OR OPERATE TO PRECLUDE AGENT FROM BRINGING SUIT OR TAKING OTHER LEGAL ACTION IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION TO COLLECT THE OBLIGATIONS, TO REALIZE ON THE COLLATERAL OR ANY OTHER SECURITY FOR THE OBLIGATIONS, OR TO ENFORCE A JUDGMENT OR OTHER COURT ORDER IN FAVOR OF AGENT.  EACH LOAN PARTY EXPRESSLY SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR SUIT COMMENCED IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND EACH LOAN PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY HAVE BASED UPON LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION, IMPROPER VENUE, OR FORUM NON CONVENIENS AND HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE GRANTING OF SUCH LEGAL OR EQUITABLE RELIEF AS IS DEEMED APPROPRIATE BY SUCH COURT.  EACH LOAN PARTY HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY AND ALL PROCESS ISSUED IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR SUIT AND AGREES THAT SERVICE OF SUCH PROCESS MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL ADDRESSED TO IT AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH IN THE CREDIT AGREEMENT AND THAT SERVICE SO MADE WILL BE DEEMED COMPLETED UPON THE EARLIER OF ITS ACTUAL RECEIPT THEREOF OR THREE (3) DAYS AFTER THE SAME HAS BEEN POSTED.


6.15.    Mutual Waiver of Jury Trial.  THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE BETWEEN AGENT OR ANY LENDER AND ANY LOAN PARTY ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED BETWEEN THEM IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AMENDMENT OR THE CREDIT AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO.


6.16.    Counterparts.  This Amendment may be executed and delivered via facsimile or email (in .pdf format) transmission with the same force and effect as if an original were executed, and may be executed in any number of counterparts, but all of such counterparts will together constitute but one and the same agreement.
