WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested certain modifications to the Credit Agreement; and


WHEREAS, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders are willing to make such modifications to the Credit Agreement upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.


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


1. Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings provided to such terms in the Credit Agreement.


2. Amendment. Section 8.01(u) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:


(u) Liens not otherwise permitted hereunder securing obligations or liabilities not exceeding $12,000,000 in the aggregate at any time outstanding.


3. Conditions Precedent. This Amendment shall be effective as of the date hereof upon:
(a) receipt by the Administrative Agent of this Amendment executed by the Borrower, the Guarantors, the Required Lenders and the Administrative Agent; and (b) the Borrower shall have paid all fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent (directly to such counsel if requested by the Administrative Agent) to the extent invoiced prior to or on the date hereof, plus such additional amounts of such fees, charges and disbursements as shall constitute its reasonable estimate of such fees, charges and disbursements incurred or to be incurred by it through the closing proceedings (provided that such estimate shall not thereafter preclude a final settling of accounts between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent).


4. Release. In consideration of the Lenders’ willingness to enter into this Amendment, each of the Loan Parties hereby releases and forever discharges the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each of their respective predecessors, successors, assigns, officers, managers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, representatives, and affiliates (hereinafter all of the above collectively referred to as the “Lender Group”), from any and all claims, counterclaims, demands, damages, debts, suits, liabilities, 


CHAR1\1516781v1 2


actions and causes of action of any nature whatsoever arising out of or in relation to the Loans or the Credit Agreement prior to the date hereof, including, without limitation, all claims, demands, and causes of action for contribution and indemnity, whether arising at law or in equity, whether known or unknown, whether liability be direct or indirect, liquidated or unliquidated, whether absolute or contingent, foreseen or unforeseen, and whether or not heretofore asserted, which each of the Loan Parties may have or claim to have against any of the Lender Group.


5. Amendment is a “Loan Document”. This Amendment is a Loan Document and all references to a “Loan Document” in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, all such references in the representations and warranties in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents) shall be deemed to include this Amendment.


6. Reaffirmation of Representations and Warranties; No Default. Each Loan Party represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and each Lender that after giving effect to this Amendment (a) the representations and warranties of each Loan Party 









contained in Article VI of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, or which are contained in any document furnished at any time under or in connection with the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, are true and correct in all material respects (or, if such representation or warranty is qualified by materiality, it shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of the date hereof, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date (or, if such representation or warranty is qualified by materiality, it shall be true and correct in all respects), and (b) no Default exists.


7. Reaffirmation of Obligations. Each Loan Party (a) acknowledges and consents to all of the terms and conditions of this Amendment, (b) affirms all of its obligations under the Loan Documents and (c) agrees that this Amendment and all documents executed in connection herewith do not operate to reduce or discharge such Loan Party’s obligations under the Loan Documents.


8. Reaffirmation of Security Interests. Each Loan Party (a) affirms that each of the Liens granted in or pursuant to the Loan Documents are valid and subsisting and (b) agrees that this Amendment shall in no manner impair or otherwise adversely affect any of the Liens granted in or pursuant to the Loan Documents.


9. FATCA. For purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under the FATCA, from and after the effective date of this Amendment, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to treat) the Obligations as not qualifying as a "grandfathered obligation" within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471- 2(b)(2)(i).


10. No Other Changes. Except as modified hereby, all of the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect.


11. Counterparts; Delivery. This Amendment may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Amendment by facsimile or other electronic imaging means shall be effective as an original.


12. Governing Law. This Amendment shall be deemed to be a contract made under, and for
all purposes shall be construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.
