2.3.     Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts),
each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Amendment constitutes the entire contract between and among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes

TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE
FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AMENDMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. 

2.7.     Incorporation of Certain Provisions. The provisions of Sections 9.01, 9.07, 9.09 and 9.12 of the Credit Agreement, as
amended by this Amendment, are hereby incorporated by reference mutatis mutandis as if fully set forth herein.

obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, all of which are ratified and affirmed in all respects and shall continue in full force and effect. Nothing herein shall be deemed to entitle any
Person 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 Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document in similar or different circumstances.
This Amendment shall apply and be effective only with respect to the provisions amended herein of the Credit Agreement. Upon the effectiveness of this Amendment, each reference in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement,”
“hereunder,” “hereof,” “herein” or words of similar import shall mean and be a reference to the Credit Agreement as amended by this Amendment and each reference in any other Loan Document shall mean the Credit Agreement
as amended hereby. This Amendment shall constitute a Loan Document.

foregoing, by its execution hereof, each Obligor hereby to the extent applicable as of the date hereof and on the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date (i) consents to this Amendment and the transactions (including the Commitment Increase)
contemplated hereby, (ii) agrees that the Guarantee and Security Agreement and each of the other Security Documents is in full force and effect, (iii) confirms its guarantee (solely in the case of each Subsidiary Guarantor) and affirms its
obligations under the Guarantee and Security Agreement and confirms its grant of a security interest in its assets as Collateral for the Secured Obligations (as defined in the Guarantee and Security Agreement), and (iv) acknowledges and affirms
that such guarantee and/or grant, as applicable, is in full force and effect in respect of, and to secure, the Secured Obligations (as defined in the Guarantee and Security Agreement). 

2.10.     Increasing Lenders; Adjustments Upon Effectiveness. On the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date, 

(a)    the Commitment of each Increasing Lender shall be increased such that the Commitment of such Increasing Lender shall
be the amount set forth opposite such Increasing Lender’s name on Schedule 1.01(b) of the Credit Agreement (as amended hereby), and such increased Commitments shall constitute additional “Commitments” for all purposes under the Credit
Agreement (as amended hereby) and the other Loan Documents; 
 (b)    the Borrower shall (i) prepay the outstanding
Loans (if any) in full, (ii) simultaneously borrow new Loans hereunder in an amount and Class equal to such prepayment; provided that with respect to subclauses (i) and (ii), (x) the prepayment to, and borrowing from,
any Lender shall be effected by book entry to the extent that any portion of the amount prepaid to such Lender will be subsequently borrowed from such Lender and (y) the Lenders, including the Increasing Lenders, shall make and receive payments
among themselves or to the Administrative Agent, in each case in a manner acceptable to the Administrative Agent, so that, after giving effect thereto, the Loans of each Class are held ratably by the Lenders of such Class in accordance
with the respective Commitments of such Lenders of such Class (after giving effect to the Commitment Increase) and (iii) pay to the Lenders the amounts, if any, payable under Section 2.14 of the Credit Agreement
(as amended hereby) as a result of any such prepayment; and 
 (c)    concurrently with commitment adjustments referenced
