of the Borrower and the Guarantors, taken as a whole, to perform their payment obligations under the Loan Documents or (c) the
rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under the Loan Documents; provided that for purposes of
Section 4.02(a), matters or impacts arising from, related to, or in connection with  the outbreak and spread of the novel

(c)            Section 6.10
of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by inserting the following new terms at the end thereof:


 


Notwithstanding the foregoing,
so long as the Borrower is in compliance with the Covenant Suspension Conditions at all relevant times during the Covenant Suspension
Period, the foregoing financial covenant shall be suspended and not applicable for such Test Period. From and after the end of
the Covenant Suspension Period, compliance with the foregoing financial covenant shall be calculated by annualizing Consolidated
EBITDA for each of the first three fiscal quarters completed after the end of the Covenant Suspension Period (for example, in the
case where the Covenant Suspension Period ends after the quarter ending March 31, 2021, (A) Consolidated EBITDA for the
Test Period ending June 30, 2021 shall equal Consolidated EBITDA for the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2021 multiplied
by four, (B) Consolidated EBITDA for the Test Period ending September 31 , 2021 shall equal Consolidated EBITDA for the
two consecutive fiscal quarters ending September 30, 2021 multiplied by two, and (C) Consolidated EBITDA for the
Test Period ending December 31, 2021, shall equal Consolidated EBITDA for the three consecutive fiscal quarters ending December 31,
2021 multiplied by 4/3) and thereafter shall be calculated based on actual Consolidated EBITDA for each fiscal quarter comprising
a Test Period.


 


If the Borrower ceases to be in
compliance with (a) the Liquidity Condition as of the last day of any Test Period ending during the Covenant Suspension Period,
then the Financial Performance Covenant will be deemed to be applicable as of the last day of such Test Period or (b) the
RP Condition at any time during the Covenant Suspension Period, then (x) prior to the date on which the financial statements
for the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2020 were required to have been delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(b), it will
be an immediate Event of Default under Section 7.01(d) and (y) thereafter, the Financial Performance Covenant will
be deemed to have been applicable as of the last day of the most recently ended Test Period. Accordingly, if the Borrower would
not have been in compliance with the Financial Performance Covenant as of the last day of such Test Period referenced in clause
(a) or (b)(y), as applicable, then, subject to the rights and limitations set forth in Section 7.02, an Event of Default
under Section 7.01(d) shall result from such non-compliance with the Liquidity Condition or the RP Condition, as applicable.

alter, modify, amend or in any way affect any of the terms, conditions, 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.  The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the amendment of the Credit Agreement pursuant to this Amendment and
all other Loan Documents amended and/or executed and delivered in connection herewith shall not constitute a novation of the Credit
Agreement and the other Loan Documents as in effect prior to the Amendment No. 7 Effective Date. Nothing herein shall be deemed
to establish a precedent for purposes of interpreting the provisions of the Amended Credit Agreement or entitle any Loan Party
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 Amended Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document in similar or different circumstances. 
This Amendment shall apply to and be effective only with respect to the provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents
specifically referred to herein.

 “hereof”, “herein” or words of like import, and each reference to the Credit Agreement, “thereunder”,
 “thereof”, “therein” or words of like import in any other Loan Document, shall be deemed a reference to
the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby.  This Amendment shall constitute a “Loan Document” for all purposes of
