company in the name of the Agent for and on behalf of the
Lenders insuring that such Lien is valid and enforceable and of
the required priority, which insurance shall be in an amount

60 days after request (or 90 days with respect to appraisals and
environmental surveys) as provided in this SECTION 5.1 preceding,
shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default if (but only
if) (1) such failure is due to the practical inability (for whatever
reason) of the Borrower or such Subsidiary to so comply
notwithstanding the best efforts of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries to so comply, and (2) the Borrower and its Subsidiaries
(other than Excluded Subsidiaries) continue to use their best

Section 5.8 COUNTERPARTS. This Amendment may be executed in one or

CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS (WITHOUT
REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES) AND APPLICABLE LAWS OF THE UNITED

Section 5.10 NO ORAL AGREEMENTS. THE CREDIT AGREEMENT, AS AMENDED
BY THIS AMENDMENT, TOGETHER WITH THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, REPRESENT THE
ENTIRE AGREEMENT BETWEEN AND AMONG THE PARTIES, AND MAY NOT BE

mandatory prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans in accordance with
SECTION 2.7(A) of the Credit Agreement as amended by this Amendment,

exceed the aggregate amount of the unused or unfunded Revolving Credit
Loans Commitments and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained

its pro rata share of such Revolving Credit Loans unless all other
Lenders advance their pro rata shares of such Revolving Credit Loans.

definition of the term "Required Lenders" in the Credit Agreement is

principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans and the aggregate
Letter of Credit Liabilities)."

Lenders execute and deliver the proposed Third Amendment to Credit
Agreement and that it will deliver an executed counterpart of such Third
Amendment to Credit Agreement to the Borrower.
