set forth opposite its name on Part A of Schedule I annexed hereto and the
Borrower desires to accept such Commitments and/or Contingent Commitments of the
New Banks and to cause each New Bank to be added as a "Bank" to the Existing
Credit Agreement as amended and restated hereby; and (iii) certain of the
Existing Banks that are not Withdrawing Banks desire to change their respective
