6. Miscellaneous.
-------------
(a) Except as herein expressly amended, all terms, covenants and

an executed original sent by facsimile transmission to be followed promptly by

transmitted document purportedly bearing the signature of a Bank or the Company
shall bind such Bank or the Company, respectively, with the same force and
effect as the delivery of a hard copy original. Any failure by the Agent to

binding effect of receipt of the facsimile transmitted executed original of such
document of the party whose hard copy page was not received by the Agent.
(e) This Amendment, together with the Credit Agreement, contains the
entire agreement of the parties hereto with reference to the matters discussed
herein and therein. This Amendment supersedes all prior drafts and

in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement.

prohibited by or invalid under any applicable law, such provision shall be
invalidated without affecting the remaining provisions of this Amendment or the

demand, for all costs and expenses (including allocated costs of in-house
counsel) incurred in connection with the development, preparation, negotiation,
