To induce Agent and Lender to enter into this Agreement, Borrowers and Parent further represent and warrant that:

(i) no Default or Event of Default has occurred or is continuing as of the date hereof, which has not been waived in writing by the Agent;

(ii) as of the date hereof and, immediately after giving effect to this Amendment and the transactions contemplated hereby, the representations and warranties of Borrowers contained in the Financing Documents are true and correct in all material respects (or if any representation or warranty is qualified with respect to materiality, in all respects) on and as of the date hereof to the same extent as though made on and as of such date except to the extent such representations and warranties specifically relate to an earlier date; and

Borrowers hereby authorize Agent to deduct all of such fees set forth in this Section 7 from the proceeds of one or more Revolving Loans made under the Credit Agreement.
