in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and benefits to be derived herefrom.

 

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, reference is made to that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of May 28, 2010 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified and in effect from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), by and among the Loan Parties (other than the New Guarantor), the Lenders party thereto from time to time, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (as successor by merger to Wells Fargo Retail Finance, LLC), as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and Swing Line Lender;

WHEREAS, the Loan Parties have advised the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that on June 19, 2015, the Loan Parties formed the New Borrower for the primary purpose of developing real estate. The New Borrower is a Delaware limited liability company wholly owned by the Lead Borrower. It is a requirement pursuant to Section 6.12 of the Credit Agreement, that the New Borrower become a party to, and be bound by the terms of, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents;

WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, in order for the New Borrower to become party to the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as provided herein, the New Borrower and the Existing Borrowers and Existing Guarantors are required to execute this Amendment; and

WHEREAS, the parties hereto have agreed to amend certain provisions of the Credit Agreement as set forth herein.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1.

Defined Terms.  Capitalized terms used in this Amendment shall have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in Credit Agreement unless otherwise defined herein.  

2.

Joinder and Assumption of Obligations. Effective as of the date of this Amendment, the New Borrower hereby acknowledges that the New Borrower has received and reviewed a copy of the Credit Agreement, the Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and hereby:

joins in the execution of, and becomes a party to, the Credit Agreement, the Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents as a Borrower (and, in the case of the Security Agreement, a Pledgor) thereunder, as indicated with its signature below;

 


 

 

(b)

covenants and agrees to be bound by all covenants, agreements, liabilities and acknowledgments of a Borrower under the Credit Agreement, the Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents as of the date hereof, in each case, with the same force and effect as if the New Borrower was a signatory to the Credit Agreement, the Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents and was expressly named as a Borrower therein;

(c)

makes all representations, warranties, and other statements of a Borrower under the Credit Agreement, the Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as of the date hereof, in each case, with the same force and effect as if the New Borrower was a signatory to the Credit Agreement, the Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents and was expressly named as a Borrower therein; and

To the extent that any changes in any representations, warranties, and covenants require any amendments to the schedules to the Credit Agreement, the Security Agreement and or any of the other Loan Documents, such schedules are hereby updated, as evidenced by any supplemental schedules (if any) annexed to this Amendment (it being understood and agreed that any representations made in any Loan Document “as of the Closing Date”, “as of the Fifth Amendment Effective Date” or any similar reference shall be deemed made, with respect to the New Borrower only, as of the date of this Amendment).
