4.Miscellaneous.

 

(a)           Each of the Borrower and the Guarantor hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Liens created and provided for by the Security Documents continue to secure, among other things, the performance of all of the Borrower’s Obligations under the Credit Documents (including the Credit Agreement as, amended hereby); and the Credit Documents and the rights and remedies of the Secured Creditors thereunder, the obligations of each of the Borrower and the Guarantor, and the Liens created and provided for under the Security Documents remain in full force and effect and shall not be impaired or discharged by this Amendment. Nothing herein contained shall in any manner affect or impair the priority of the Liens and security interests created and provided for by the Security Documents.

 

(b)           This Amendment may be executed (including by way of electronic signature) in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.
