            (b)  The Banks agree that the Backup Facility Agreement and the Participation Agreement are each amended, as of the Restatement Effective Date, by replacing the Commitment amounts on the signature pages thereof with the Commitments shown on Schedule 1 attached hereto.  


            SECTION 3.  Representations and Warranties.  Each of Lessee, Borrower, and Guarantor hereby represents and warrants that (i) its respective representations and warranties contained in the Participation Agreement and the Operative Agreements are, after giving effect to this Amendment and Restatement, true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Restatement Effective Date, and (ii) no Default will have occurred and be continuing as to it on such date.

            SECTION 5.  Counterparts.  This Amendment and Restatement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.


            SECTION 6.  Effectiveness.  This Amendment and Restatement shall become effective on the date when the following conditions are met (the "Restatement Effective Date"):


            (a)  the Agent shall have received from each of the Borrower, the Banks, the Lessor, the Lessee, and the Guarantor a counterpart hereof signed by such party or facsimile or other written confirmation (in form satisfactory to the Agent) that such party has signed a counterpart hereof;

            SECTION 7.  Continuing Effect of the Participation Agreement and Operative Agreements.  Except as expressly provided herein, this Agreement shall not constitute an amendment or waiver of any other provision of the Backup Facility Agreement, the Participation Agreement or any Operative Agreement not expressly referred to herein and shall not be construed as a waiver or consent to any further or future action on the part of Lessee, the Lessor, Borrower or Guarantor that would require a waiver or consent of the Agent Bank, the Investors and/or the Banks except as may be provided for herein.
