satisfactory to the Agent that such Lender has executed this Amendment. This Amendment is subject
to the provisions of Section 8.01 of the Credit Agreement.

(i) the Borrower’s charter or by-laws or(ii) law or any contractual restriction binding on
or affecting the Borrower.
(c) No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with,
any governmental authority or regulatory body or any other third party is required

(e) There is no pending or threatened action, suit, investigation, litigation or
proceeding, including, without limitation, any Environmental Action, affecting the Borrower
or any of its Subsidiaries before any court, governmental agency or arbitrator that (i)
could be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) purports to affect the
legality, validity or enforceability of this Amendment or any of the other Loan Documents,

the Credit Agreement, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of the Credit Agreement.

expenses of the Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery and administration,
modification and amendment of this Amendment and the other instruments and documents to be
