been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on
the part of each respective party, (ii) do not require any
approval or consent of, or filing with, any governmental
authority or other third party, and (iii) do not conflict
with, constitute a breach or default under or result in the

instrument or other document to which any of such entity is
a party or by which any such party or any of its properties
are bound or affected.

-------------------------------
Credit Agreement as amended hereby, the FCI Guaranty and the
other Loan Documents constitute the legal, valid and binding
obligations of each of FCI and the Subsidiary Guarantors
parties thereto, enforceable against such party in
accordance with their respective terms, provided that (i)
--------
enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws of
general application affecting the rights and remedies of
creditors, and (ii) enforcement may be subject to general
principles of equity, and the availability of the remedies
of specific performance and injunctive relief may be subject

---------------------
Amendment, all of the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement and the other
Loan Documents remain in full force and effect. FCI and each Subsidiary
