  Proper assignment of env variables always requires no   spaces around the = sign.

  For POSIX and ksh shells, this is preferred for readability:

  export ORACLE_BASE=/usr01/u01/oracle
  export ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/8.1.6

> export PATH

  PATH is always exported as it is a shell predefined variable.   Once a variable has been defined as exported, it no longer   needs defining the attribute again.
