The parties acknowledge that the commitments of the lenders under the New Tranche Term Loan Agreement have expired as of March 31, 2015.  The Borrower has requested that the Lenders increase the amount of loans made available to the Borrower under the Existing Term Loan Agreement, in lieu of making new loans available under the New Tranche Term Loan Agreement.

Accordingly, the parties hereto agree as follows:

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of compliance with any term or condition contained in the Existing Term Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or constitute a course of conduct or dealing among the parties.  Except as expressly stated herein, the Lenders reserve all rights, privileges and remedies under the Loan Documents.  All references in the respective Loan 

4



Exhibit 10.5

Documents to the Existing Term Loan Agreement shall be deemed to be references to the Existing Term Loan Agreement as amended hereby.

(b)No Reliance.  The Borrower hereby acknowledges and confirms to the Lenders that the Borrower is executing this Amendment on the basis of its own investigation and for its own reasons without reliance upon any agreement, representation, understanding or communication by or on behalf of any other Person.

(c)Binding Effect.  This Amendment shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Borrower, each Lender and their respective successors and assigns.

(d)Governing Law.

(g)Counterparts.  This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the same agreement.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Amendment by facsimile or in electronic (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) format shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment.

(h)Interpretation.  This Amendment is the result of negotiations between and has been reviewed by counsel to the Lenders, the Borrower and other parties, and is the product of all parties hereto.  Accordingly, this Amendment shall not be construed against any of the Lenders merely because of any Lender’s involvement in the preparation thereof.

(i)Controlling Provisions.  In the event of any inconsistencies between the provisions of this Amendment and the provisions of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Amendment shall govern and prevail.  Except as expressly modified by this Amendment, the Loan
