original or an executed original sent by facsimile transmission to be followed
promptly by mailing of a hard copy original, and that receipt by the
Administrative Agent of a facsimile transmitted document purportedly bearing the
signature of a Lender or the Company shall bind such Lender or the Company,
respectively, with the same force and effect as the delivery of a hard copy
original. Any failure by the Administrative Agent to receive the hard copy
executed original of such document shall not diminish the binding effect of
receipt of the facsimile transmitted executed original of such document of the
party whose hard copy page was not received by the Administrative Agent.
