not include any obligations or liabilities of any Borrower to any financial institutions pursuant to any Hedge Agreements in an amount in excess of the Hedge Reserves.”

     3. Effect of this Amendment. Except as modified pursuant hereto, no other changes or modifications to the Intercreditor Agreement are intended or implied, and in all other respects, the Intercreditor Agreement is hereby specifically ratified, restated and confirmed by the parties hereto as of the effective date hereof. To the extent of conflict between the terms of this Amendment and the Intercreditor Agreement, the terms of this Amendment shall control. The Intercreditor Agreement and this Amendment shall be read as one agreement.

     4. Further Assurances. The parties hereto shall execute and deliver such additional documents and take such additional actions as may be necessary to effectuate the provisions and purposes of this Amendment.
