purposes. Any representation or warranty contained herein that is determined by
the Agent or the Lenders to have been misleading or untrue in any material
respect at the time made shall constitute an Event of Default under the Credit
Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with Section 8.1 of the
Credit Agreement as if such representation or warranty had been contained in the
Credit Agreement, and any default by the Borrowers in the performance or
observance of any provision of this Amendment that continues unremedied after
the grace period described in Section 8.1 of the Credit Agreement shall
