delivered by or on behalf of Seller and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of
Seller enforceable against Seller in accordance with its terms subject to bankruptcy, insolvency,
and other limitations on creditors’ rights generally and to equitable principles. No Event of

authorization, order, registration or qualification of or with any Governmental Authority required
for the execution, delivery and performance by Seller of this Amendment has been obtained and is in

of acknowledging and agreeing that, notwithstanding the execution and delivery of this Amendment

negotiation of this Amendment promptly (and after Buyer or Buyer’s counsel gives Seller an invoice
for such expenses).



6. Full Force and Effect. Except as expressly modified hereby, all of the terms,
covenants and conditions of the Repurchase Agreement and the other Transaction Documents remain
unmodified and in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed by Seller. Any
inconsistency between this Amendment and the Repurchase Agreement (as it existed before this
Amendment) shall be resolved in favor of this Amendment, whether or not this Amendment specifically

All references to the “Agreement” in the Repurchase Agreement or to the “Repurchase Agreement” in
any of the other Transaction Documents shall mean and refer to the Repurchase Agreement as modified

executed and/or delivered in connection therewith.
