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

2

          (a) The representations and warranties set forth in Article III of the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Amendment Effective Date (as defined below) and after giving effect to this Amendment, with the same effect as if made on and as of such date, except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date, in which case they were true and correct as of such earlier date.
          (b) As of the Amendment Effective Date, after giving effect to this Amendment, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
          SECTION 4. Effectiveness. This Amendment shall become effective as of the date (the “Amendment Effective Date”) on which the Administrative Agent shall have received duly executed counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the authorized signatures of the Company and Lenders constituting at least the Required Lenders.
