REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 

As of the date hereof, each of the Loan Parties, represents and warrants as to itself as follows: 

Section 3.1 Corporate Existence; Compliance with Law. Such Loan Party (a) is duly organized, validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation, except (other than with respect to the Borrowers), to the extent that the failure to be in good standing would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect, (b) has the legal right to own and operate its property, to lease the property it operates as lessee and to conduct the business in which it is currently engaged, except to the extent that the failure to have such legal right
would not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (c) is duly qualified as a foreign corporation or limited liability company and in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or
operation of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, other than in such jurisdictions where the failure to be so qualified and in good standing would not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and
(d) is in compliance with all Requirements of Law, except to the extent that the failure to comply therewith would not, in the aggregate, be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

Section 3.2 Corporate Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. Such Loan Party has the corporate or other organizational
power and authority, and the legal right, to make, deliver and perform this Amendment and such Loan Party has taken all necessary corporate or other organizational action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment. No
consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other similar act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required to be obtained or made by or on behalf of such Loan Party in connection with the execution,
delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Amendment, except for consents, authorizations, notices and filings which the failure to obtain or make would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. This Amendment has
been duly executed and delivered by such Loan Party hereto. This Amendment constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Loan Party hereto, enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, in each case except as
enforceability may be limited by applicable domestic or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement
is sought by proceedings in equity or at law). 
 Section 3.3 No Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance of this
Amendment by such Loan Party (a) will not violate any Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation of such Loan Party in any respect that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (b) will not result in,
or require the creation or imposition of any Lien (other than Liens permitted under the Credit Agreement) on any of its properties or revenues pursuant to any such Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation and (c) will not violate any
provision of the Organizational Documents of such Loan Party, except (other than with respect to the Borrowers) as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

Section 3.4 No Default. On the date hereof after giving effect to this Amendment, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing. 







 ARTICLE IV 

MISCELLANEOUS 

Section 4.1 Effect of Amendment. Except as expressly set forth herein, this Amendment shall not by implication or otherwise limit,
impair, constitute a waiver of, or otherwise affect the rights and remedies of any Agent or any Lender under the Loan Documents, and shall not alter, modify, amend or in any way affect any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or
agreements contained in the Loan Documents, all of which (including with respect to the security interests and liens granted to the Agents and the other Secured Parties under the Loan Documents) are ratified and affirmed in all respects and shall
continue in full force and effect except that, on and after the effectiveness of this Amendment, each reference to the Credit Agreement in the Loan Documents shall mean and be a reference to the Credit Agreement as amended by this Amendment. Nothing
herein shall be deemed to entitle the Borrowers to a consent to, or a waiver, amendment, modification or other change of, any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Loan Documents in similar or different
circumstances. This Amendment is a Loan Document executed pursuant to the Credit Agreement and shall be construed, administered and applied in accordance with the terms and provisions thereof.

respective successors and assigns permitted under Subsection 11.6 of the Credit Agreement. 
 Section 4.3 Severability. Any
provision of this Amendment which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any
such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 

Section 4.4 Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate
counterparts (including by telecopy and other electronic transmission), and all of such counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. A set of the copies of this Amendment signed by all the parties shall be
