(a)         the representations and warranties of each Loan Party contained in Article III of the Credit Agreement are true and correct in all material respects (except to the extent that any such representation and warranty is qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect, in which case such representation and warranty is true and correct in all respects) as of the date hereof, except to the extent that any such representation and warranty relates to an earlier date (in which case such representation and warranty was true and correct in all material respects (except to the extent that any such representation and warranty is qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect, in which case such representation and warranty was true and correct in all respects) as of such date; and
