(a)           Each and every of the representations and warranties set forth in the Agreement and/or the documents executed pursuant thereto or in connection therewith is true as of the date hereof and with the same effect as though made on the data hereof, and is hereby incorporated herein in full by reference as if fully restated herein in its entirety.

(b)           No Default or Event of Default and no event or condition which, with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such a Default or Event of Default, now exists or would exist.
