(d) Representations and Warranties. New Guarantor represents, warrants, acknowledges and affirms with respect to itself and its properties, that each of the representations and warranties contained in the Credit Agreement, the Subsidiary Guaranty, and the other Loan Documents as it relates to New Guarantor is true and correct in all material respects (except where any such representation or warranty is otherwise qualified by materiality, in which case such representation or warranty is true and correct in all respects) as of the date hereof, with the same effect as though such representation had been made on and as of the date hereof after giving effect to the joinder of New Guarantor as an additional Guarantor and Obligor under the Credit Agreement, the Subsidiary Guaranty and the other Loan Documents.
(e) Loan Documents. New Guarantor confirms that it has received a copy of the Credit Agreement, the Subsidiary Guaranty and each of the other material Loan Documents and hereby joins and agrees to be obligated and bound by all the terms, provisions and covenants under each of the Loan Documents which are binding on each Existing Guarantor, including, without limitation, the Pledge Agreement.

(h) Legal Opinion. Agent and Lenders agree that delivery of a legal opinion is not required as a condition to joining New Guarantor as a Guarantor under the Loan Documents; provided, however, that Agent reserves the right to require delivery of a legal opinion for New Guarantor in connection with any subsequent joinder and/or amendment to the Loan Agreement.
The parties hereto agree that each reference in the Credit Agreement, the Subsidiary Guaranty and the other Loan Documents to “Guarantor,” “Guarantors,” “Obligor,” “Obligors,” “Pledgor,” “Pledgors” or terms of similar import shall be deemed to include New Guarantor.
3. Amendments to Credit Agreement; Consent to Dissolutions and LLC Conversions.
(a) Effective as of the Twentieth Amendment Effective Date (as defined below), Section 10.1.9 (Future Subsidiaries) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following new sentences thereto at the end thereof:
The parties hereto acknowledge that the Obligors have acquired (i) Lew Thomspon & Son Trucking, Inc., an Arkansas corporation (“Lew Thompson Trucking”), Lew Thompson & Son Dedicated Leasing, Inc., an Arkansas corporation (“Lew Thompson Dedicated Leasing”), Josh Thompson Trucking, Inc., an Arkansas corporation (“Josh Thompson Trucking”), and Lew Thompson and Son Leasing, Inc., an Arkansas corporation (“Lew Thompson Leasing”), as further described on that Officer’s Certificate as of April 26, 2023, and (ii) Sims Transport Services, LLC a Georgia limited liability company (“Sims” and, together with Lew Thompson Trucking, Lew Thompson Dedicated Leasing, Josh Thompson Trucking, and Lew Thompson Leasing, each, a “Specified Acquired Subsidiary” and, collectively the “Specified Acquired Subsidiaries”) as further described in that Officer’s Certificate dated as of August 18, 2023. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that each Specified Acquired Subsidiary was and is not required to be joined as a party to the Loan Documents as a Borrower or Guarantor so long as Obligors have not made and do not make (i) any Investments in such Specified Acquired Subsidiary, (ii) any Asset Disposition to such Specified Acquired Subsidiary, (iii) any loans to such Specified Acquired Subsidiary, or (iv) repay or guaranty any debt of such Specified Acquired Subsidiary, in each case, other than as expressly approved in writing by Agent; provided, that Agent reserves the right to require, at any time after the date hereof, any or all of the Specified Acquired Subsidiaries to become a Borrower or Guarantor under the Loan Documents in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 10.1.9.
