The Issuing Bank shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Credit Agreement in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon the Lenders and all future holders of the Revolving Credit Notes or of a Letter of Credit Participation. (e) In addition to any customary issuance, amendment, negotiation or document examination, and other administrative fees as in effect from time to time with respect to the Letters of Credit and Bankers Acceptances, the Borrower shall pay a fee (a "L/C Fee") to the Agent, for the account of the Lender issuing any Letter of Credit of Bankers Acceptance, in respect of each Letter of Credit and Bankers Acceptance, for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit or Bankers Acceptance to and including the date of termination or expiration of such Letter of Credit or Bankers Acceptance, computed at a rate per annum in an amount equal to two percent (2%) per annum.

(t) The following sentence is added to the end of Section 11.2: For the avoidance of doubt, references in this Section 11.2 to Loans include Lettters of Credit and Bankers Acceptances. 2.

Except as amended, modified or supplemented by this Amendment, all of the terms, conditions, covenants, provisions, representations, warranties and conditions of the Credit Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby acknowledged, ratified, confirmed and continued as if fully restated hereby. 5. The invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision hereof shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other term or provision hereof or contained in the Credit Agreement. 6. It is the intention of the parties hereto that this Amendment shall not constitute a novation and shall in no way adversely affect or impair performance of the obligations of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement. 7. Regardless of whether the conditions in Section 3 hereof are satisfied and whether or not the amendments in Section 1 and the waiver in Section 2 take effect, the Borrower hereby confirms and ratifies the Obligations incurred by it and the Borrowing Subsidiaries under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and acknowledges that the Borrower has no defense, offset, counterclaim, or right of recoupment against the Agent or any Lender with respect to any of such Obligations or any other matter. 8.
