    5.            Unless
otherwise defined, all initially capitalized terms in this Amendment shall be as
defined in the Agreement. The Agreement, as amended hereby, shall remain in full
force and effect in accordance with its terms. Except as expressly set forth
herein, the execution, delivery, and performance of this Amendment shall not
operate as a waiver of, or as an amendment of, any right, power, or remedy of

    6.   
        This Amendment may be executed
in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts,
each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original,
and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one and the same
Amendment. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile
transmission or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature
shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose
behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such
