authorized by all necessary corporate action and, if required, by all necessary shareholder action.  This Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by Borrower and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Borrower, enforceable against Borrower in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws of general applicability affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and (b) the application of general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).  This Amendment (x) does not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any other action by, any Governmental Authority or any third party, except for such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect, (y) will not violate (i) the charter, bylaws or other organizational documents of Borrower and its Subsidiaries or (ii) any applicable law or regulation or any order of any Governmental Authority, other than any such violations in the case of this clause (ii) that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (z) will not violate or result in a default under any Material Agreement or agreement creating or evidencing any Material Indebtedness, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by any such Person.

releases, remises and forever discharges Administrative Agent and each Lender, and their respective successors and assigns, and their respective present and former shareholders, affiliates, subsidiaries, divisions, predecessors, directors, officers, attorneys, employees, agents and other representatives (Administrative Agent, each Lender and all such other persons being hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Releasees” and individually as a “Releasee”), of and from all demands, actions, causes of action, suits, covenants, contracts, controversies, agreements, promises, sums of money, accounts, bills, reckonings, damages and any and all other claims, counterclaims, defenses, rights of set-off, demands and liabilities whatsoever of every name and nature, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, both at law and in equity, which Borrower or any of its successors, assigns or other legal representatives may now or hereafter own, hold, have or claim to have against the Releasees or any of them for, upon or by reason of any circumstance, action, cause or thing whatsoever which arises at any time on or prior to the day and date of this Amendment, including, without limitation, for or on account of, or in relation to, or in any way in connection with the Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or transactions thereunder or related thereto (collectively, the “Released Claims”).  Borrower understands, acknowledges and agrees that the release set forth above (the “Release”) may be pleaded as a full and complete defense and may be used as a basis for an injunction against any action, suit or other proceeding which may be instituted, prosecuted or attempted in breach of the provisions of the Release.  Borrower agrees that no fact, event, circumstance, evidence or transaction which could now be asserted or which may hereafter be discovered shall affect in any manner the final, absolute and unconditional nature of the Release.  Borrower acknowledges that the Release constitutes a material inducement to Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enter into this Amendment and that Administrative Agent and the Lenders would not have done so but for Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s expectation that the Release is valid and enforceable in all events.

(b)Submission to Jurisdiction.  Borrower agrees that any suit, action or proceeding with respect to this Amendment or any judgment entered by any court in respect thereof may be brought initially in the federal or state courts in Houston, Texas or in the courts of its own corporate domicile and irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of each such court for the purpose of any such suit, action, proceeding or judgment.  This Section 6 is for the benefit of Administrative Agent and the Lenders only and, as a result, none of Administrative Agent or any Lender shall be prevented from taking proceedings in any other courts with jurisdiction.  To the extent allowed by applicable Laws, Administrative Agent and the Lenders may take concurrent proceedings in any number of jurisdictions.

any and all right to trial by jury in any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Amendment.

(c)Controlling Provisions.  In the event of any inconsistencies between the provisions of this Amendment and the provisions of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Amendment shall govern and prevail.  Except as expressly modified by this Amendment, the Loan Documents shall not be modified and shall remain in full force and effect.
