borrow and perform its obligations under the Credit Agreement. Each
Restricted Person has duly taken all action necessary to authorize the
execution and delivery of this Amendment and to authorize the performance
of its respective obligations hereunder.
(c) The execution and delivery by each Restricted Person of this
Amendment, the performance by each Restricted Person of its respective

the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any assets or

amended, is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects. The Loan Documents,
as they may be amended or affected by this Amendment, are hereby ratified and
confirmed in all respects. Any reference to the Credit Agreement in any Loan

delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not, except as expressly
provided herein, operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of

Document nor constitute a waiver of any provision of the Credit Agreement or any
other Loan Document.

execution and delivery of this Amendment and the performance hereof, including
