deliver this Amendment, and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby, and (iii) is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction other than the state or jurisdiction of its organization in which the character
of the properties owned or leased by it or in which the transaction of its business makes such qualification necessary, except (solely for the purposes of this subclause (iii)) where the failure to be so qualified and in good standing could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Borrower and its Subsidiaries have obtained, and are in compliance with, all licenses, permits, approvals and other authorizations necessary for the operation of their business
(b) The execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party of this Amendment, (i) has been duly authorized by all necessary

other document to be signed in connection with this Amendment and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms

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

Lender pursuant to procedures approved by it.
SECTION 7. Costs and Expenses. The Borrower agrees to reimburse the Lender for its reasonable out of pocket expenses in connection with this Amendment, including the reasonable fees,
charges and disbursements of Willkie Farr & Gallagher LLP, counsel for the Lender, in each case, to the extent that an invoice that sets forth such costs and expense in reasonable detail has been provided to the Borrower in accordance with

earlier date, in which case they are true and correct in all material respects (and in all respects if any such representation or warranty is already qualified by materiality) as of such earlier date.

(d) This Amendment shall not extinguish the Loans or any other Obligations outstanding under the Credit Agreement. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as a substitution or novation

number of separate counterparts (including by facsimile or other electronic imaging means), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page of this
Amendment by facsimile or other electronic transmission (e.g. “pdf” or “tif” format) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. The words “execution”, “execute”, “signed”, “signature” and words of like import in or
related to this Amendment or any other document to be signed in connection with this Amendment and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract
formations on electronic platforms approved by the Lender, 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; provided that notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary the Lender is under no obligation to agree to accept electronic signatures in any form or in any
format unless expressly agreed to by the Lender pursuant to procedures approved by it.

part of this Amendment for any other purpose, be given any substantive effect, affect the construction hereof or be taken into consideration in the interpretation hereof.
