incorporation papers, by-laws or any stock provision or any amendment thereof or
of any agreement or other instrument binding upon the Borrower or any Guarantor.

     (b) This Amendment and the Credit  Agreement as amended  hereby  constitute
legal,  valid  and  binding  obligations  of the  Borrower  and the  Guarantors,
enforceable  in accordance  with their  respective  terms,  except as limited by
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,  moratorium or other laws relating to or

performance  or  injunctive  relief is  subject to the  discretion  of the court
before which any proceeding therefor may be brought.

     (c) Other than approvals or consents which have been obtained,  no approval

warranties relate expressly to an earlier date.

     (e) The Borrower has performed  and complied in all material  respects with
all terms and conditions  herein required to be performed or complied with by it
prior to or at the time hereof,  and as of the date hereof,  after giving effect

Credit  Agreement,  the other Loan Documents and all documents,  instruments and
agreements related thereto are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects and
shall continue in full force and effect. This Amendment and the Credit Agreement
shall  hereafter be read and construed  together as a single  document,  and all

delivered in person. At the request of any party hereto or to any such agreement
or  instrument,  each other party hereto or thereto  shall  re-execute  original
forms thereof and deliver them to all other  parties.  No party hereto or to any
such  agreement  or  instrument  shall raise the use of a  facsimile  machine to
deliver a signature or the fact that any  signature  or agreement or  instrument

defense to the  formation  of a  contract  and each party  forever  waives  such
defense.
