Amendment, the Loan Papers are unchanged and continue in full force and effect.
However, in the event of any inconsistency between the terms of the Credit
Agreement as hereby amended and any other Loan Paper, the terms of the Credit
Agreement shall control and such other document shall be deemed to be amended
hereby to conform to the terms of the Credit Agreement. All references to the
Credit Agreement shall refer to the Credit Agreement as amended by this
Amendment. Each Restricted Company agrees that all Loan Papers to which it is a
party remain in full force and effect and continue to evidence its legal, valid
and binding obligations enforceable in accordance with their terms (as the same
are affected by this Amendment). Each Restricted Company hereby releases Agent
and Lenders from any liability for actions or failures to act in connection with
the Loan Papers prior to the date hereof. This Amendment shall be binding upon
and inure to the benefit of each of the undersigned and their respective
successors and permitted assigns.

of, or a consent to any present or future violation of or default under, any
provision of the Loan Papers, or a waiver of Lenders' right to insist upon
future compliance with each term, covenant, condition and provision of the Loan
Papers, and the Loan Papers shall continue to be binding upon, and inure to the
benefit of, the Restricted Companies, Agent and Lenders and their respective
successors and assigns.
8. Form. Each agreement, document, instrument or other writing to be
furnished Agent or Lenders under any provision of this instrument must be in
form and substance satisfactory to Agent and its counsel.
9. Multiple Counterparts. This instrument may be executed in more than
one counterpart, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which
constitute, collectively, one instrument; but, in making proof of this
instrument, it shall not be necessary to produce or account for more than one
such counterpart. It shall not be necessary for each Restricted Company, Agent
and all Lenders to execute the same counterpart hereof so long as each
Restricted Company, Agent and each Lender execute a counterpart hereof.
10. Entirety. The Loan Papers Represent the Final Agreement Between
Borrower, Agent and Lenders and May Not Be Contradicted by Evidence of Prior,
Contemporaneous, or Subsequent Oral Agreements by the Parties. There Are No
Unwritten Oral Agreements among the Parties.
