except as expressly set forth herein, waive or release any term or condition of the Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any of their rights or remedies under such Loan Documents or any applicable law or any of the obligations of the

4. Representations and Warranties. Each Loan Party represents and warrants to the Lenders as follows:
(a) As of the Effective Date, no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
(b) The representations and warranties of the Borrower and each other Loan Party contained in Article IV of the Loan Agreement, or which are contained in any document

of the Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct in all material respects (and in all respects if any such representation and warranty
is already qualified by materiality or reference to material adverse effect) as of such earlier date.
(c) Each Loan Party has the full power and authority to enter into, execute and deliver this Agreement and perform its obligations hereunder, under the Loan Agreement and

(d) This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such person and constitutes such person’s legal, valid and binding obligations, enforceable in accordance with its
terms, except as such enforceability may be subject to (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance or transfer, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and (ii) general principles of equity (regardless
of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity).
(e) No consent, approval, authorization or order of, or filing, registration or qualification with, any court or Governmental Authority or third party is required in
connection with the execution, delivery or performance by such person of this Agreement.
(f) The execution and delivery of this Agreement does not (i) violate, contravene or conflict with any provision of its organization documents or (ii) materially violate,
contravene or conflict with any laws applicable to it or its subsidiaries.
(g) The Loan Parties’ obligations are not reduced or modified by this Agreement and are not subject to any offsets, defenses or counterclaims.
5. Release. As a material part of the consideration for the Lenders entering into this Agreement (this Section 5, the “Release Provision”):
(a) Each Loan Party agrees that the Lenders, each of their respective affiliates and each of the foregoing persons’ respective officers, managers, members, directors,
advisors, sub- advisors, partners, agents and employees, and their respective successors and assigns (hereinafter all of the above collectively referred to as the “Lender Group”), are irrevocably and unconditionally released, discharged and
acquitted from any and all actions, causes of action, claims, demands, damages and liabilities of whatever kind or nature, in law or in equity, now known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected to the extent that any of the foregoing arises from any
action or failure to act under or otherwise arising in connection with the Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents on or prior to the date hereof.
(b) Each Loan Party hereby acknowledges, represents and warrants to the Lender Group that:
(i) it has read and understands the effect of the Release Provision. Each Loan Party has had the assistance of independent counsel of its own choice, or has had the
opportunity to retain such independent counsel, in reviewing, discussing, and considering all the terms of the Release Provision; and if counsel was retained, counsel for such Loan Party has read and considered the Release Provision and advised such
Loan Party with respect to the same. Before execution of this Agreement, each Loan Party has had adequate opportunity to make whatever investigation or inquiry it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with the subject matter of the Release
Provision.
(ii) no Loan Party is acting in reliance on any representation, understanding, or agreement not expressly set forth herein. Each Loan Party acknowledges that the Lender
Group has not made any representation with respect to the Release Provision except as expressly set forth herein.
(iii) each Loan Party has executed this Agreement and the Release Provision thereof as its free and voluntary act, without any duress, coercion, or undue influence exerted by
or on behalf of any person.
(iv) each Loan Party is the sole owner of its respective claims released by the Release Provision, and no Loan Party has heretofore conveyed or assigned any interest in any
such claims to any other Person.
(c) The Loan Parties understand that the Release Provision was a material consideration in the agreement of the Lenders to enter into this Agreement. The Release Provision
shall be in addition to any right, privileges and immunities granted to the Lenders under the Loan Documents.
6. Miscellaneous.
(a) The Loan Agreement, as modified hereby, and the obligations of the Loan Parties thereunder and under the other Loan Documents, are hereby ratified and confirmed and
shall remain in full force and effect according to their terms. This Agreement shall constitute a Loan Document under the Loan Agreement.
(b) This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall constitute one
and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as an original and shall constitute a representation that an executed original shall be delivered.
(c) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF
NEW YORK.
