Following such acquisition, Borrower expects ECM and/or certain of its wholly owned subsidiaries will constitute a Material Domestic Subsidiary, as defined in the Facility Letter.  Borrower has requested that Bank amend the Facility Letter to exclude ECM and its wholly owned subsidiaries from the requirement to provide a Guaranty pursuant to Section 12(s) of the Facility Letter, and Bank is willing to do so on under the terms and conditions set forth in this Amendment.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, ECM Associated, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“ECM”) and each of its wholly owned subsidiaries shall not be required to become a Guarantor pursuant to the requirements of this Section even if it is a Material Domestic Subsidiary if and only so long as (1) Borrower and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates own less than 100% of the voting equity interests in ECM, and (2) neither ECM nor any of its wholly owned subsidiaries is required to, and does not, guarantee the obligations of Borrower owing to any other creditor party to that certain Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of July 13, 2015, among Bank, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, and U.S. Bank National Association (as the same may be amended, modified or restated from time to time, the “Intercreditor Agreement”).  If at any time ECM or any of its wholly owned subsidiaries is a Material Domestic Subsidiary and either Borrower and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates own 100% of the voting equity interests in ECM or ECM or any of its wholly owned subsidiaries guarantees or is required to guarantee the obligations of Borrower owing to any other creditor party to the Intercreditor Agreement, then Borrower shall cause ECM and/or each of its wholly owned subsidiaries which is a Material Domestic Subsidiary to promptly become a Guarantor pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Section.

1.2.      Immediately following Borrower’s acquisition of ECM, Exhibit E of the Facility Letter shall be amended and restated in its entirety to read as set forth on Exhibit E attached hereto and made a part hereof.

Reference to this specific Amendment need not be made in the Facility Letter, the Note, or any other instrument or document executed in connection therewith, or in any certificate, letter or communication issued or made pursuant to or with respect to the Facility Letter, any reference in any of such items to the Facility Letter being sufficient to refer to the Facility Letter as amended hereby.  This Amendment is not a novation nor is it to be construed as a release, waiver or modification of any of the terms, conditions, representations, warranties, covenants, rights or remedies set forth in the Facility Letter, except as specifically set forth herein.  Without limiting the foregoing, Borrower agrees to comply with all of the terms, conditions, and provisions of the Facility Letter except to the extent such compliance is irreconcilably inconsistent with the express provisions of this Amendment.
