(k)This Amendment shall not constitute an amendment of any other provision of the Credit Agreement not referred to herein and shall not be construed as a waiver or consent to any further or future action on the part of any Borrower and any other Obligor that would require a waiver or consent of the Lenders or the Agent. Except as expressly amended hereby, the provisions of the Credit Agreement are and shall remain in full force and effect.
This Amendment may not be amended nor may any provision hereof be waived except pursuant to a writing signed by the Obligors, the Agent and the Required Lenders. This Amendment may be executed by one or more of the parties hereto on any number of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Amendment by facsimile or other electronic submission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. This Amendment may be in the form of an Electronic Record and may be executed using Electronic Signatures. Each of the Obligors, the Agent and each Credit Party agrees that any Electronic Signature on or associated with any Communication shall be valid and binding on such Person to the same extent as a manual, original signature, and that any Communication entered into by Electronic Signature, will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Person enforceable against such Person in accordance with the terms thereof to the same extent as if a manually executed original signature was delivered. Any Communication may be executed in as many counterparts as necessary or convenient, including both paper and electronic counterparts, but all such counterparts are one and the same Communication. For the avoidance of doubt, the authorization under this paragraph may include, without limitation, use or acceptance of a manually signed paper Communication which has been converted into electronic form (such as scanned into PDF format), or an electronically signed Communication converted into another format, for transmission, delivery and/or retention. The Agent and each of the Credit Parties may, at its option, create one or more copies of any Communication in the form of an imaged Electronic Record (“Electronic Copy”), which shall be deemed created in the ordinary course of such Person’s business, and destroy the original paper document. All Communications in the form of an Electronic Record, including an Electronic Copy, shall be considered an original for all purposes, and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, neither the Agent, Issuing Bank nor Swingline Lender is under any obligation to accept an Electronic Signature in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by such Person pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided, further, without limiting the foregoing, (a) to the extent the Agent, Issuing Bank and/or Swingline Lender has agreed to accept such Electronic Signature, the Agent and each of the Credit Parties shall be entitled to rely on any such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of any Obligor and/or any Credit Party without further verification and (b) upon the request of the Agent or any Credit Party, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by such manually executed counterpart. Neither the Agent, Issuing Bank nor Swingline Lender shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into the sufficiency, validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document (including, for the avoidance of doubt, in connection with the Agent’s, Issuing Bank’s or Swingline Lender’s reliance on any Electronic Signature transmitted by telecopy, emailed .pdf or any other electronic means). The Agent, Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender shall be entitled to rely on, and shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Amendment or any other Loan Document by acting upon, any Communication (which writing may be a fax, any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution or signed using an Electronic Signature) or any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent or otherwise authenticated (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents for being the maker thereof).

EACH OF THE OBLIGORS AND EACH CREDIT PARTY HEREBY WAIVES (I) ANY ARGUMENT, DEFENSE OR RIGHT TO CONTEST THE LEGAL EFFECT, VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS AMENDMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT BASED SOLELY ON THE LACK OF PAPER ORIGINAL COPIES OF THIS AMENDMENT OR SUCH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND (II) ANY CLAIM AGAINST THE AGENT AND EACH CREDIT PARTY FOR ANY LIABILITIES ARISING SOLELY FROM THE AGENT’S AND/OR ANY CREDIT PARTY’S RELIANCE ON OR USE OF ELECTRONIC SIGNATURES, INCLUDING ANY LIABILITIES ARISING AS A RESULT OF THE FAILURE OF THE OBLIGORS TO USE ANY AVAILABLE SECURITY MEASURES IN CONNECTION WITH THE EXECUTION, DELIVERY OR TRANSMISSION OF ANY ELECTRONIC SIGNATURE.

SECTION 7.GOVERNING LAW; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES EXCEPT FEDERAL LAWS RELATING TO NATIONAL BANKS. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AMENDMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY HERETO (i) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (ii) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AMENDMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION AND IN SECTION 14.15 OF THE CREDIT AGREEMENT.
