          NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises herein contained and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
          1. Defined Terms. Unless otherwise noted herein, terms defined in the Credit Agreement and used herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Credit Agreement.

 


 

          2. Amendment to Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement (Defined Terms). (a) Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the definitions of “New Lender Supplement” and “Revolving Credit Commitment” in their respective entireties and substituting in lieu thereof the following in the appropriate alphabetical order:
