The following terms and conditions shall apply with respect to this requested increase in the aggregate amount of the Commitments:
(a) Notwithstanding any "Commitment Amount" set forth on any Lender's signature page to the Credit Agreement or any "Assigned Commitment" or similar term set forth in any Assignment and Acceptance Agreement executed in connection with an assignment of Loans under the Credit Agreement, following the increase in the aggregate Commitments under the Credit Agreement and the allocation of such increased Commitment amount by the Agent pursuant to Section 2.15 of the Credit Agreement, the Commitment of each Lender shall be, subject to the payment of the Upfront Fee referred to in clause (b) of this Section 3, as set forth under the heading "Commitment Amount" opposite such Lender's name on Schedule I to this Second Amendment.
(b) The Borrower shall pay to the Agent, for the account of each Lender increasing its Commitment, an upfront fee (the "Upfront Fee") in an amount equal to in the case of each Lender increasing its Commitment, 0.25% of such Lender's "Incremental Commitment" as set forth on Schedule I to this Second Amendment.
(c) The Commitment Amounts set forth on Schedule I to this Second Amendment shall become effective upon payment of the Upfront Fee referred to in clause (b) of this Section 3.

Each Lender increasing its Commitment under the Credit Agreement shall, promptly following the execution and delivery by such Lender of this Second Amendment, return to the Borrower for cancellation each Revolving Note and Competitive Advance Note previously issued to it under the Credit Agreement.

4. Restatement of Representations and Warranties. The Borrower and Guarantors hereby restate and renew each and every representation and warranty heretofore made by them in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as fully as if made on the date hereof (except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date) and with specific reference to this Second Amendment and all other loan documents executed and/or delivered in connection herewith.

7. No Default. By execution hereof, the Borrower and Guarantors certify that each of them is and will be in compliance with all covenants under the Loan Documents after the execution and delivery of this Second Amendment, and that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

11. Section References. Section titles and references used in this Second Amendment shall be without substantive meaning or content of any kind whatsoever and are not a part of the agreements among the parties hereto evidenced hereby.
12. Further Assurances. The Borrower and Guarantors agree to take such further actions as the Agent shall reasonably request in connection herewith to evidence the amendments herein contained.
