2.01.  References in the Credit Agreement (including references to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby) to “this Agreement” (and indirect references such as “hereunder”, “hereby”, “herein” and “hereof”) shall be deemed to be references to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby.

2.02.  Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the word “tangible” in the second line of the definition of “Consolidated Shareholders Equity”.

Section 3.  Representations and Warranties.  Each Obligor (as to itself and its Subsidiaries) represents and warrants to the Lenders that (a) its representations and warranties set forth in Article IV of the Credit Agreement are true and complete on the date hereof as if made on and as of the date hereof and as if each reference in said Article IV to “this Agreement” included reference to this Amendment No. 1 (unless such representation and warranty relates solely to another time, in which event such representation or warranty is true and correct as of such other time) and (b) no Event of Default or Inchoate Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

Section 7.  Credit Facility Document.  The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment No. 1 shall not, except as expressly provided herein, operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of any Lender or the Administrative Agent under any of the Credit Facility Documents, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of any of the Credit Facility Documents.
