Restated Amendment and Waiver. 
  
 10. Continuing Effect; No
Other Waivers. Except as expressly provided herein, all of the terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement are and shall remain in full force and effect. The waiver provided for herein is limited to the specific sections of the Credit Agreement
specified herein and shall not constitute a consent, waiver or amendment of, or an indication of the Administrative Agent’s or the Lenders’ willingness to consent to any action requiring consent under or to waive or amend, any other
provisions of the Credit Agreement or the same sections for any other date or time period (whether or not such other provisions or compliance with such sections for another date or time period are affected by the circumstances addressed in this
