(2)       deleting footnote 1 on the first paragraph of such section.

 

(iv) by amending Annex V to replace the reference to Section 8.16 therein with a reference to Section 8.2.

 

Section 2. Representations and Warranties, No Default. The Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, hereby represent and warrant that as of the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date, after giving effect to the amendments set forth in this Amendment, (i) no Default or Event of Default exists and is continuing and (ii) all representations and warranties contained in the Indenture and Security Agreement are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date hereof, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they were true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date (provided that representations and warranties that are qualified by materiality are true and correct (after giving effect to any qualification therein) in all respects on and as of the date hereof).

 

Section 3. Effectiveness. Section 1 of this Amendment shall become effective on the date (such date, if any, the “Amendment No. 1 Effective Date”) that the Trustee shall have received executed signature pages hereto from each Grantor.

 

Section 4. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Amendment on any number of separate counterparts (including by telecopy or electronic (e.g., “pdf”) transmission), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.

 

Section 5. Governing Law. THIS AMENDMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS TO THE EXTENT THAT THE SAME ARE NOT MANDATORILY APPLICABLE BY STATUTE AND THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY.

Section 7. Effect of Amendment. Except as expressly set forth herein, (i) this Amendment shall not by implication or otherwise limit, impair, constitute a waiver of or otherwise affect the rights and remedies of the Holders, the Trustee or the Issuer, in each case under the Security Agreement or any other Note Document, and (ii) shall not alter, modify, amend or in any way affect any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Security Agreement or any other provision of either such agreement or any other Note Document. Each and every term, condition, obligation, covenant and agreement contained in the Security Agreement or any other Note Document is hereby ratified and re-affirmed in all respects and shall continue in full force and effect and nothing herein can or may be construed as a novation thereof. Each Grantor reaffirms its obligations under the Security Documents to which it is a party and the validity, enforceability and perfection of the Liens granted by it pursuant to the Security Documents with all such Liens continuing in full force and effect after giving effect to this Amendment. This Amendment shall constitute a Note Document for purposes of the Indenture and from and after the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date, all references to the Security Agreement in any Note Document and all references in the Security Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereunder”, “hereof” or words of like import referring to the Security Agreement, shall, unless expressly provided otherwise, refer to the Security Agreement as amended by this Amendment. Each of the Grantors hereby consents to this Amendment and confirms that all obligations of such Grantor under the Security Documents to which such Grantor is a party shall continue to apply to the Security Agreement, as amended hereby.
