(f)Accuracy of Representations and Warranties.  Each of the representations and warranties set forth in Article IV of the Credit Agreement, each other Loan Document and Section 3.3 of this Amendment shall be correct in all material respects on and as of the Ninth Amendment Effective Date as though made on and as of such date, except to the extent that any such representations and warranties are stated to relate solely to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall be correct in all material respects as of such earlier date, provided that in each case, any representations and warranties that are qualified as to “materiality” or “material adverse effect” shall be true and correct in all respects;

#93682701v11    






Section 3.3    Representations and Warranties.   To induce the other parties hereto to enter into this Amendment, the Borrower represents and warrants to each of the Agent and the Lenders that: 
(a)     Each of the representations and warranties set forth in Article IV of the Credit Agreement and in each other Loan Document are correct in all material respects on and as of the Ninth Amendment Effective Date as though made on and as of such date, except to the extent that any such representation or warranty is stated to relate solely to an earlier date, in which case such representation or warranty is correct in all material respects as of such earlier date, provided that in each case, any representation or warranty that is qualified as to “materiality” or “material adverse effect” is true and correct in all respects;
(b)     As of the date hereof, the Borrower has the corporate power and authority, and the legal right, to enter into and perform this Amendment.  The execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of such party.  The execution and delivery by such party of this Amendment, and performance by such party of the Credit Agreement as amended hereby, will not (a) contravene such corporation’s charter or bylaws, (b) violate, in any material respect, any provision of any law, rule, regulation (including, without limitation, Regulations U and X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination, or award presently in effect having applicability to such party, (c) result in a breach of or constitute a default under any indenture or loan or credit agreement or any other material agreement, lease, or instrument to which such corporation is a party or by which it or its properties may be bound or affected, (d) result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien, upon or with respect to any of the properties now owned or hereafter acquired by such corporation, other than Liens securing the Obligations; or (e) cause such corporation, partnership or limited liability company to be in default, in any material respect, under any such law, rule, regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination, or award or any such indenture, agreement, lease or instrument.  This Amendment constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such party, enforceable against such party in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that such enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, and other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally;
(c)    The Acknowledgement, when executed and delivered by each Guarantor party thereto, will constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor, enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that such enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, and other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally; and
(d)    On the date hereof and on the Ninth Amendment Effective Date (both before and after giving effect to this Amendment), no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
Section 3.4    Severability.    In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Amendment should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.
Section 3.5    Continuing Effect; No Other Waivers or Amendments.
5






#93682701v11    






(a)    This Amendment shall not constitute an amendment to or waiver of any provision of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents except as expressly stated herein and shall not be construed as a consent to any action on the part of the Borrower or any other Subsidiary that would require an amendment, waiver or consent of the Agent or the Lenders except as expressly stated herein.  Except as expressly amended or waived hereby, the provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents are and shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms. 
(b)    The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (i) this Amendment and any other Loan Documents executed and delivered in connection herewith do not constitute a novation, or termination of the “Obligations” (as defined in the Loan Documents) under the Credit Agreement as in effect prior to the Ninth Amendment Effective Date; (ii) such “Obligations” are in all respects continuing (as amended hereby) with only the terms thereof being modified to the extent provided in this Amendment; and (iii) the Liens and security interests as granted under the Loan Documents securing payment of such “Obligations” are in all such respects continuing in full force and effect and secure the payments of the “Obligations”.
(c)    On and after the Ninth Amendment Effective Date, each reference in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereunder”, “hereof”, “herein” or words of like import, shall mean and be a reference to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby, and this Amendment and the Credit Agreement shall be read together and construed as a single instrument.  This Amendment shall be a Loan Document for all purposes under the Credit Agreement.
(d)    For purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, from and after the effective date of this Amendment, the Borrower and the Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Agent to treat) the Amended Credit Agreement as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i) or 1.471-2T(b)(2)(i).
Section 3.6    Counterparts.  
This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties to this Amendment in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same Amendment.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Amendment by facsimile or other electronic image shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment.  The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in this Amendment shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of electronic records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.
Section 3.7    GOVERNING LAW.    THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

SCHEDULE I
TO AMENDMENT


1.    Promptly following the Ninth Amendment Effective Date, and in no event later than thirty (30) days following the Ninth Amendment Effective Date, the Borrower shall deliver a list to the Agent of all Mortgages delivered to the Agent under the Credit Agreement (such list to exclude those Mortgages previously released pursuant to provisions of the Credit Agreement), accompanied by a certificate of a Responsible Officer of Borrower certifying that such list is true, correct and complete in all material respects.  Such certification shall be deemed a representation and warranty under the Credit Agreement for all purposes.  




2.    Within one hundred fifty (150) days of the Ninth Amendment Effective Date, the Borrower shall satisfy, or cause the satisfaction of, each of the following with respect to each Mortgage in each state as may be reasonably requested by the Agent (collectively, the “Specified States”), and which, for purposes of modifying such Mortgage under clause (A) below, shall be to reflect the extension of the Termination Date and the increase in the Aggregate Commitment or such other capped principal amount as set forth in such Mortgage as required pursuant to the laws of such states or the terms of such Mortgage: 


(A)    the applicable Loan Party shall have executed and delivered to the Agent a modification to Mortgage in recordable form for the applicable jurisdiction in which the applicable Mortgaged Property is located and otherwise in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and the Agent; 
(B)    the Agent shall have received evidence that counterparts of the modifications to Mortgages previously recorded in the Specified States have been submitted to the appropriate offices of First American Title Insurance Company for recordation in the appropriate offices to ensure that the valid and perfected first priority Liens created by such Mortgages continue in full force and effect and evidence that all other actions that the Agent may reasonably deem necessary or desirable in order to ensure that the valid and perfected first priority Liens created by such Mortgages have been taken, subject only to Liens permitted under Section 6.01 of the Credit Agreement (provided that any Liens required by Section 6.01 of the Credit Agreement to be junior to the Liens securing the Facility are, in fact, junior to such Liens securing the Facility); and
(C)    the Agent shall have received a letter of opinion addressed to the Agent and the Lenders from counsel located in the Specified States with respect to the adequacy of the form of the modifications of the Mortgages and such other matters as reasonably requested by the Agent.
