true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date).
4.    Reference to and Effect on the Credit Agreement.
(a)    Upon the effectiveness hereof, each reference to the Credit Agreement in
the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document shall mean and be a reference to

executed and/or delivered by it in connection therewith shall remain in full
force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed. Except with respect to

agreements executed and/or delivered in connection therewith.

governed by the laws of the State of New York.
