Each of the provisions of the Underwriting Agreement is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety, and shall be deemed to be a part of this Pricing Agreement to the same extent as if such provisions had been set forth in full herein; and each of the representations and warranties set forth therein shall be deemed to have been made at and as of the date of this Pricing Agreement, except that each representation and warranty which refers to the Prospectus and the General Disclosure Package in Section 2 of the Underwriting Agreement shall be deemed to be a representation or warranty as of the date of the Underwriting Agreement in relation to the Prospectus (as therein defined) and the General Disclosure Package (as therein defined), and also a representation and warranty as of the date of this Pricing Agreement in relation to the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, relating to the Designated Securities which are the subject of this Pricing Agreement.
