c.    Governmental Consent. No consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required in connection with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Amendment, except for consents, authorizations, notices or filings that if not obtained or made, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
