6. Upon any increase in the Aggregate Commitments pursuant Section 2.14, the Lenders have authorized the Administrative Agent and the Borrower to make non-ratable borrowings

V of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Commitment Increase Supplement, the representations and warranties contained in subsection (a) of Section 5.05 shall
be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) of Section 6.01, and (ii) no Default exists, (b) ratifies and confirms each of the Loan Documents, (c) agrees that all Loan Documents shall apply to the Obligations as they are or may be increased by this Commitment Increase Supplement and (d)

and supersedes all other prior arrangements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof.

parties hereto.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Commitment Increase Supplement by telecopier shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Commitment Increase Supplement.

 

12. This Commitment Increase Supplement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each New Lender and each Increasing Lender and the Borrower and its respective successors and permitted assigns, except that neither party may assign
or transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other party.

 

13. This Commitment Increase Supplement is a Loan Document, as defined in the Loan Agreement, and is subject to the provisions of the Credit Agreement governing Loan Documents.
