WHEREAS, the Administrative Borrower has informed the Administrative Agent and
the Lenders that Holdings and the Borrowers have failed to comply with the
covenants set forth in Section 11.08 through 11.10 of the Credit Agreement as of
the last day of the fiscal quarter ending on December 31, 2016 and such events

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements set

parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

 

1.           Waiver. Upon the occurrence of the Waiver Effective Date (as
defined below), the Financial Covenant Defaults are hereby waived. For the
avoidance of doubt, this Waiver shall apply only to the Borrowers’ failure to
comply with the covenants set forth in Section 11.08 through 11.10 of the Credit
Agreement as of the last day of the fiscal quarter ending on December 31, 2016,
and not to any other fiscal period or to any other Event of Default. For the
avoidance of doubt, on and after the Waiver Effective Date, no further
Additional Interest (as defined in the Existing Forbearance) shall accrue in
respect of the Loans.

 

 

 

 

2.           Additional Interest. Notwithstanding the waiver in Section 1, the
Additional Interest (as defined in the Existing Forbearance) shall continue to
accrue on the outstanding amount of the Loans, until the earliest of (x) the
date on which all Loans are repaid and all Commitments under the Credit
Agreement are terminated, (I) the date the Borrowers have delivered the
financial statements and certificates required by Section 10.01(b) and (g) for
the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2017 and no Default or Event of Default shall
exist and be continuing or (z) the date on which additional interest is payable
pursuant to Section 2.08(c) or (f) (provided that, in the case of this clause
(z), Additional Interest shall begin to accrue again on the date on which
additional interest is no longer payable pursuant to Section 2.08(c) or (f),
unless either of the conditions in clauses (x) or (y) above have been satisfied
at such time, and shall continue to accrue until one of the conditions in clause
(x), (y) or (z) have been satisfied following such date). Any accrued but unpaid
Additional Interest shall be payable on the date of each interest payment.

 

3.           Revolving Loans. Subject to all of the terms and conditions set
forth herein and in the Credit Agreement, following the Waiver Effective Date,
the STG Parties agree that the Administrative Borrower may request Revolving
Loans, and the RL Lenders may, but shall not be obligated to, in their sole
discretion advance the requested Revolving Loans; provided that each of the
conditions set forth in Section 8 of the Credit Agreement shall be satisfied.

 

4.           Cure Rights. The STG Parties agree that, following the Waiver
Effective Date, the Cure Right may not be exercised in respect of the fiscal
quarter ended March 31, 2017.

 

5.           Condition to Effectiveness. This Waiver shall be effective upon
Administrative Agent’s receipt of or satisfaction of the following conditions
(each in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent in its
reasonable discretion):

 

(a)          this Waiver shall have been duly executed by the STG Parties, the
Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders; and

6.           Effect Upon Credit Agreement. Nothing in this Waiver, nor any of
the Administrative Agent’s and the Required Lenders’ entry into this Waiver or
any of the documents referenced herein, their negotiations with any party with
respect to any STG Party, their conduct of any analysis or investigation of any
Collateral for the Obligations or any Credit Document, their acceptance of any
payment from any STG Party or any other party, or any other action or failure to
act on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, shall (i) constitute
an extension, modification or waiver of, or give rise to any obligation on the
part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to extend, modify or waive, any
term, condition or other aspect of the Credit Agreement or the other Credit
Documents except as expressly set forth herein; (ii) extend the terms of the
Credit Agreement or the due date of any of the Obligations; or (iii) give rise
to any defenses or counterclaims to the right of the Administrative Agent and
the Lenders to compel payment of the Obligations or to otherwise enforce their
rights and remedies described in the Credit Agreement and the other Credit
Documents. This Waiver shall not constitute a course of dealing with the
Administrative Agent or any Lender at variance with the Credit Agreement such as
to require further notice by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to require
strict compliance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and the other Credit
Documents in the future. The STG Parties acknowledge and expressly agree that

(b)           neither the execution, delivery or performance by any STG Party of

aid in any way, prosecute or cause to be commenced or prosecuted against any of
the Releasees any action or other proceeding based upon any of the Released
Claims.

pledgor, guarantor, assignor, or in other any other similar capacity in which

otherwise acts as accommodation party or guarantor, as the case may be, hereby

contingent or otherwise, under each of the Credit Documents to which it is a
party (after giving effect hereto) and (ii) to the extent such STG Party granted
liens on or security interests in any of its property pursuant to any such
Credit Document as security for or otherwise guaranteed Obligations under or
with respect to the Credit Documents, ratifies and reaffirms such guarantee and
grant of security interests and liens and confirms and agrees that such security
interests and liens hereafter secure all of the Obligations as amended hereby.
