B.            The Existing Loan Parties have informed the Administrative Agent that they wish to cause each New Guarantor to become a party to, and bound by the terms of, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, in the same capacity and to the same extent as the Existing Guarantors thereunder.  Each undersigned New Guarantor is executing this Joinder in accordance with the requirements of the Credit Agreement to become a Guarantor thereunder.

C.            Each Guarantor, including the New Guarantors, acknowledges that it is an integral part of a consolidated enterprise and that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the availability of the credit facility provided for in the Credit Agreement, from the making of the Loans by the Lenders, and the issuance of the Letters of Credit by the L/C Issuer.  In order for the New Guarantors to become party to the Credit Agreement and certain of the other Loan Documents as provided herein, the New Guarantors and the Existing Loan Parties are required to execute this Joinder.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1.                                       Definitions.  All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the same meaning herein as in the Credit Agreement.

b.                                      Without in any manner limiting the generality of clause (a) above, each New Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees that:

i.                                          New Guarantor shall be bound by all covenants (other than covenants which specifically relate solely to an earlier date), agreements, liabilities and acknowledgments of a Guarantor under the Credit Agreement, the Facility Guaranty, the Security Documents and each of the other Loan Documents to which the Existing Guarantors are a party, in each case, with the same force and effect as if such New Guarantor was a signatory thereto and was expressly named therein;

iii.                                    Each New Guarantor authorizes the Administrative Agent to prepare and file such UCC financing statements as the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate in order to perfect the security interests to be granted pursuant to the Credit Agreement and certain related Loan Documents.  Without limiting the foregoing, such filings may describe the collateral covered thereby as “All assets of the Debtor, wherever located, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or arising” (or words of similar effect).

3.                                       Representations and Warranties.  Each New Guarantor hereby makes all representations, warranties, and covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement, the Facility Guaranty, the Security Documents and each of the other Loan Documents as of the date hereof (other than representations, warranties and covenants that relate solely to an earlier date).  To the extent that any changes in any representations, warranties, and covenants require any amendments to the Schedules to the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, such Schedules are hereby updated, as evidenced by any supplemental Schedules (if any) annexed to this Joinder.

4.                                       Ratification of Loan Documents.  Except as specifically amended by this Joinder and the other documents executed and delivered in connection herewith, all of the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement and of the other Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect as in effect prior to the date hereof, without releasing any Loan Party thereunder or Collateral granted by any Loan Party.
