This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed an original but all such counterparts shall constitute one and the same instrument.

4
7. Severability. If any provision of this Amendment is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Amendment shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions.

11. Headings. Section headings in this Amendment are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Amendment for any other purpose.
12. Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Matters. The Borrowers have determined that this Amendment does not result in a significant modification of the Revolving Credit Commitments for U.S. federal income tax purposes and accordingly, the Revolving Credit Commitments continue to be “grandfathered obligations” for purposes of FATCA. “FATCA”, for purposes of this Section 12, means Section 1471 through 1474 of the Code (or any amended or successor version that is substantively comparable) or any Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder.
