3.                                      Representations and Warranties.  To induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to execute and deliver this Amendment, each Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and each Consenting Lender as follows:

 

a.                                      The execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment and each document and instrument delivered in connection herewith are within each applicable Borrower’s and Holdings’ corporate or other organizational power and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational action of such Borrower and Holdings.

4.                                      No Modification.  Except as expressly set forth herein, nothing contained herein shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of compliance with any term or condition contained in the Existing Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or constitute a course of conduct or dealing among the parties.  Except as expressly stated herein, the Administrative Agent and Lenders reserve all rights, privileges and remedies under the Loan Documents.  Except as amended or consented to hereby, the Existing Credit Agreement and other Loan Documents
