(b) No Conflict. Neither the execution and delivery of this Second
Amendment or any other agreement or instrument contemplated hereby nor the

Amendment or any such other agreement or instrument by any Loan Party will, at
the time of such performance, (i) violate or conflict with any provision of such

organizational or governing documents of such Loan Party, (ii) violate,

result in or require the creation of any Lien (other than those contemplated in
or created in connection with the Loan Documents) upon or with respect to such
Loan Party's properties. No consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to
or other act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any other person
is required in connection with the performance of and compliance with the terms
and provisions of this Second Amendment or any other agreement or instrument
contemplated hereby.

(c) Representations and Warranties in Credit Agreement. Each of the
representations and warranties contained in Article III of the Credit Agreement
(with references to the "Companies" and the "Loan Parties" being references
thereto after giving effect to the Merger Transactions unless otherwise
expressly stated) is true and correct in all material respects, except that any
representation and warranty that is qualified as to "Materiality" or "Material
Adverse Effect" shall be true and correct in all respects as of the date hereof,
except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an
earlier date.
(d) No Default. Except with respect to any Default intended to be
cured by the amendments contained in this Second Amendment, both before and
after giving effect to this Second Amendment, no event has occurred and is
continuing that constitutes a Default or an Event of Default.
Section 4.04 No Waiver.
Except as specifically modified pursuant to the terms of this Second
Amendment, the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan
Documents remain in full force and effect. Nothing herein shall limit in any way
the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under the
Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The execution and delivery by the
Lenders of this Second Amendment shall not constitute a waiver, forbearance or
other indulgence with respect to any Default or Event of Default now existing or
hereafter arising.
Section 4.05 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.
This Second Amendment may be executed in counterparts (and by
different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall
constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a
single contract. This Second Amendment and any agreements referred to herein
constitute the entire contract among the parties hereto relating to the subject
matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings,
oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. This Second Amendment
shall become effective when it shall have been executed by each of Borrower and
each of the Required Lenders, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to
the benefit of the parties to the Credit Agreement and, subject to and in
accordance with Section 11.04 of the Credit Agreement, their respective
successors and assigns; provided that the effectiveness of the consent, waiver
and amendments contained herein is conditioned upon the satisfaction of the
applicable conditions set forth in Article III. Delivery of an executed
counterpart of a signature page of this Second Amendment by telecopy shall be as
effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Second
Amendment.
Section 4.06 Severability.
Any provision of this Second Amendment held to be invalid, illegal
or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be
ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability
without affecting the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining
provisions hereof, and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular
jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.
14
Section 4.07 Governing Law.
This SECOND Amendment shall be construed in accordance with and
governed by the law of the State of New York, without regard to conflicts of law
principles that would require the application of the laws of another
jurisdiction.
Section 4.08 Headings.
Article and Section headings used herein are for convenience of
reference only, are not part of this Second Amendment and shall not affect the
construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Second
Amendment.
