hereby, and the other Loan Documents, as fully as though such representations
and warranties had been made on the date hereof and with specific reference to

shall reasonably request in connection herewith to evidence the amendments
herein contained to the Loan Agreement.
36. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by
different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which, when so
executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original and all of which
counterparts, taken together, shall constitute but one and the same instrument.
37. This Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
successors and permitted assigns of the parties hereto.
