6.    No Other Changes.  Except as modified hereby, all of the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect and nothing herein shall limit or waive any right, power or remedy of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under the Loan Documents. 


7.    Counterparts; Delivery.  This Amendment may be executed in counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.
