(f)Inability to Determine the LIBOR Rate.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if the Lender determines that the LIBOR Rate is no longer being reported by The Wall Street Journal, then reasonably promptly after such determination by the Lender, the Lender and the Borrowers may amend this Agreement solely for the purposes of replacing the LIBOR Rate with another alternate benchmark rate (“Replacement Reference Rate”) after due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. Dollar denominated credit facilities, which may include any selection, endorsement or recommendation by the government of the United States of America or any court, governmental body or other regulator or agency, the Federal Reserve Board, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or a committee endorsed or convened by any of the foregoing.  In determining the interest accruing on the Term Loan, there shall be added to the Replacement Reference Rate a margin to be agreed between Lender and Borrowers (it being the intention of the parties that such margin, when added to the Replacement Reference Rate, shall result in in the Term Loan accruing interest at a rate that is the same as the interest accruing on the Term Loan under the terms of this Agreement as if the LIBOR Rate were still available).  In the event a Replacement Reference Rate is not available or the Lender and the Borrowers are unable to agree on a Replacement Reference Rate, the interest on the Term Loan shall accrue at the Prime Rate plus a margin to be agreed among Lender and Borrowers (it being the intention of the parties that such margin, when added to the Prime Rate, shall result in the Term Loan accruing interest at a rate that is the same as the interest accruing on the Term Loan under the terms of this Agreement as if the LIBOR Rate were still available).

G.Section 2.3 of the Existing Credit, Security and Guaranty Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following substituted therefor:

Section 2.3Term Note.  The Term Loan made by Lender shall be evidenced by an second amended and restated promissory note in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A executed by Borrowers on a joint and several basis (as amended and restated, “Term Note”) in an original principal amount equal to One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000).

4

Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement.

The Lender’s books and records concerning the Term Loan, the accrual of interest thereon, and the repayment of such Term Loan, shall be prima facie evidence of the indebtedness to the Lender hereunder.

No delay or omission by the Lender in exercising or enforcing any of the Lender’s powers, rights, privileges, remedies, or discretions hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof on that occasion nor on any other occasion. No waiver of any Event of Default shall operate as a waiver of any other Event of Default.

This Term Note shall be binding upon each Borrower, and each endorser and guarantor hereof, and upon their respective successors, assigns, and representatives, and shall inure to the benefit of the Lender and its successors, endorsees, and assigns.

To the extent that the principal balance of this Term Note includes the indebtedness hitherto evidenced by the Existing Term Note, the indebtedness evidenced by the Existing Term Note is a continuing indebtedness and nothing herein shall be deemed to constitute a payment, settlement or novation of the Existing Term Note or a release of any collateral heretofore pledged to secure payment and performance of the Existing Term Note, all such collateral hereby expressly pledged to secure the payment and performance of the obligations hereunder as if fully set forth herein.

THIS TERM NOTE AND ALL MATTERS RELATING HERETO OR ARISING HEREFROM (WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT LAW, TORT LAW OR OTHERWISE), SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES.
