NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
 
SECTION 1         Definitions.  Except as otherwise provided herein, all capitalized undefined terms used in this Agreement (including, without limitation, in the introductory paragraph and the statement of purpose hereto) shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the New Credit Agreement or, to the extent not defined in the New Credit Agreement, in the applicable Security Document.


SECTION 2          Reaffirmation of Security Documents.  The Borrower and each other Credit Party hereby (a) acknowledges and consents to all the terms and conditions of the New Credit Agreement and this Agreement, (b) reaffirms, ratifies and confirms its respective payment and performance obligations, contingent or otherwise, if any, under the Guaranty Agreement, the Collateral Agreement (as amended and supplemented by this Agreement), the Assignment and each of the other Loan Documents to which it is a party and (c) reaffirms, ratifies and confirms that each of the Liens granted in or pursuant to the Collateral Agreement, the Assignment and each of the other Loan Documents to which it is a party is valid and subsisting as security for, and continues to secure, the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations outstanding at any time under the New Credit Agreement, including, without limitation, all additional Secured Obligations resulting from or incurred pursuant to the New Credit Agreement.  Each reference in the Guaranty Agreement, the Collateral Agreement, the Assignment and each of the other Loan Documents to “Secured Obligations” shall mean and be a reference to “Secured Obligations” as defined in the New Credit Agreement.  In furtherance of, but without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the Credit Parties hereby grants and pledges to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of itself and the other Secured Parties, a continuing security interest in, all of such Credit Party’s right, title and interest in the Collateral (as defined in the Collateral Agreement) and such Credit Party’s power to transfer rights in such Collateral, whether now owned or at any time hereafter acquired by such Credit Party or in which such Credit Party now has or at any time in the future may acquire any right, title or interest, or the power to transfer rights therein, and wherever located or deemed located as collateral security for the prompt and complete payment and performance when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Secured Obligations.
 
SECTION 3            Amendments to Collateral Agreement.  The Collateral Agreement is hereby amended by:
 
(a)          deleting the period at the end of clause (x) in the definition of “Excluded Property” in the proviso to Section 2.1 (“Grant of Security Interest”) thereof and replacing it with “; and” and inserting the following new clause (xi) thereafter:
 
“(xi)          any margin stock (as such term is defined or used, directly or indirectly, in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) and any Equity Interests issued by any Immaterial Subsidiary.”; and
 
(b)        deleting the phrase “any Collateral which, to the knowledge of such Grantor, constitutes “margin stock” as defined in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, excluding such Collateral existing on the date hereof and replacements or substitutions thereof,” in Section 4.4 (“Required Notifications”) thereof and replacing it with “[reserved]”;

SECTION 5           Representations and Warranties.  Each Credit Party represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders as of the date hereof that each of the representations and warranties contained in the New Credit Agreement and in the Guaranty Agreement, the Collateral Agreement, the Assignment and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party shall be true and correct in all material respects, except for any representation and warranty that is qualified by materiality or reference to Material Adverse Effect, which such representation and warranty shall be true and correct in all respects, with the same effect as if made on and as of the date hereof (except for any such representation and warranty that by its terms is made only as of an earlier date, which representation and warranty shall remain true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date, except for any representation and warranty that is qualified by materiality or reference to Material Adverse Effect, which such representation and warranty shall be true and correct in all respects as of such earlier date).
 
SECTION 6          Limited Effect.  Except as amended and supplemented hereby, the Guaranty Agreement, the Collateral Agreement, the Assignment and each other Loan Document shall continue to be, and shall remain, in full force and effect.  This Agreement shall not be deemed (a) to be a waiver of, or consent to, or a modification or amendment of, any other term or condition of the Guaranty Agreement, the Collateral Agreement, the Assignment or any other Loan Document, (b) to prejudice any right or rights which the Administrative Agent or any Lender may now have or may have in the future under or in connection with the Guaranty Agreement, the Collateral Agreement, the Assignment or the other Loan Documents or any of the instruments or agreements referred to therein, as the same may be amended or modified from time to time, or (c) to be a commitment or any other undertaking or expression of any willingness to engage in any further discussion with the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any other Person with respect to any other waiver, amendment, modification or any other change to the Guaranty Agreement, the Collateral Agreement, the Assignment or the other Loan Documents or any rights or remedies arising in favor of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent, or any of them, under or with respect to any such documents.

SECTION 9          Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.  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 LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.  Sections 12.5(b), (c) and (d) and 12.6 of the New Credit Agreement are hereby incorporated by herein by this reference.
