as of such earlier date; and

 

		d.	immediately before and after giving effect to this Agreement, no Default or Event of Default has occurred

Each Loan Party hereby acknowledges that it has reviewed the terms and provisions of this Agreement and consents to the amendment of the
Existing Credit Agreement effected pursuant to this Agreement. Each Loan Party hereby confirms that each Loan Document to which it is
a party or is otherwise bound will continue to be in full force and effect as amended by this Agreement and that its obligations thereunder
shall not be impaired or limited by the execution or effectiveness of this Agreement.

 

		b.	Each Loan Party hereby (i) confirms that each Loan Document to which it is a party or is otherwise
bound and all Collateral encumbered thereby will continue to secure to the fullest extent possible in accordance with the Loan Documents,
the payment and performance of the Obligations, (ii) confirms its respective grant to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the
Secured Parties of the security interest in and continuing Lien on all of such Loan Party’s right, title and interest in, to and

security for the prompt and complete payment and performance in full when due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration,
acceleration, demand or otherwise, of all applicable Obligations (including all such Obligations as amended, reaffirmed and/or increased
pursuant to the Amended Credit Agreement), subject to the terms contained in the applicable Loan Documents and (iii) confirms its
other pledges, other grants of security interests and other obligations, as applicable, under and subject to the terms of each Loan Document

7.           Entire
Agreement. This Agreement, the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire agreement among the parties
with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral,
among the parties or any of them with respect to the subject matter hereof.

 

8.            Effect
of the Amendment. On and after the Seventh Amendment Effective Date, (i) each reference to the “Credit Agreement”
in any Loan Document shall be deemed to be a reference to the Amended Credit Agreement, (ii) the terms “Agreement”, “this
Agreement”, “herein”, “hereinafter”, “hereto”, “hereof”, and words of similar import,
as used in the Amended Credit Agreement, shall, unless the context otherwise requires, mean the Amended Credit Agreement, and (iii) this
Agreement shall constitute a “Loan Document” for all purposes of the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, all Loan Documents shall continue to be in full force and effect and are hereby in all
respects ratified and confirmed. The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Agreement shall not operate as a waiver of any right,
power or remedy of any Lender or the Administrative Agent under any of the Loan Documents, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of
the Loan Documents. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that the terms of this Amendment do not constitute a novation but,
rather, an amendment of the terms of the Existing Credit Agreement.

 

    4 

     

    

 

9.            GOVERNING
LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE) BASED UPON, ARISING
OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF ANY LAW OTHER THAN
THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

 

10.           Miscellaneous.
The provisions of Sections 9.11 and 9.15 of the Amended Credit Agreement are incorporated by reference herein and made a part hereof.

 

11.           Severability.
In case any provision in or obligation hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction,
the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other
jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

 

12.           Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when
so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same contract.
Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other customary means of electronic transmission
(e.g., “.pdf”) shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. The words “execution,”
 “execute”, “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in or related to any document to be signed
in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including without limitation amendments, waivers and consents)
shall be deemed to include electronic signatures on electronic platforms approved by the Administrative Agent, or the keeping of records
in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the
use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the
Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other
similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. Each of the parties represents and warrants to the other parties
that it has the corporate capacity and authority to execute the Agreement through electronic means and there are no restrictions for doing
so in that party’s constitutive documents.
