      (d) This Amendment has been duly authorized, validly executed and
          delivered by one or more authorized officers of each Borrower and

          general principles of equity.

      (e) The execution and delivery of this Amendment and the performance

taken together, shall constitute one and the same agreement.

SECTION 8. Governing Law. This Amendment shall be governed by and construed in
