          payable solely in its common stock;

          The Company warrants to the Agent and the Banks as of the date hereof
that:

          (a)  After giving effect to this Amendment, all representations and
warranties contained in the Credit Agreement are true and correct in all

Documents shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified,
approved and confirmed in all respects.

          (b)  The Company acknowledges and agrees that the execution and

by the different parties on separate counterparts, and each such counterpart
shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together
constitute but one and the same Amendment.
