SECTION 7. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AMENDMENT, AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AMENDMENT, AND ANY CLAIMS, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE) BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AMENDMENT OR THE AMENDED PURCHASE AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

SECTION 10. Severability. Any term or provision of this Amendment which is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Amendment or affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Amendment in any other jurisdiction.

hereby), where applicable, are hereby reaffirmed and remain in full force and effect on a continuous basis, and (b) agrees that its grant of security interests pursuant to the Security Agreement is reaffirmed and remains in full force and effect after giving effect to this Amendment and secures all Secured Obligations (as in effect after giving effect hereto).

 

SECTION 13. Counterparts.
