(iii) the Loans of each Continuing Lender and New Lender shall be as set forth in Annex II attached to this Amendment, which Annex II amends and restates Schedule 1.1(a) to the Credit Agreement in its entirety.

For sake of clarity, any Hedging Agreement between Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary and a Senior Hedging Party (as defined in the Collateral Agency Agreement) shall constitute a Qualified Hedging Agreement.
