2. Waivers. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, and in reliance upon the representations and warranties
of the Borrower made herein, the Agent and the Lenders signatory hereto hereby permanently waive any Default or Event of Default having occurred or to occur directly as a result of (A) the breach of Section 8.05 of the Credit
Agreement as a result of CSI’s entering into an agreement to sell the Erdman Company for nominal consideration, and (B) the breach, if any, of Section 7.08 of the Credit Agreement as a result of CSI’s failure to timely
file with the SEC its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011.

represents and warrants to the Agent and the Lenders as follows: 
 (a) The representations and warranties made
by it in Article VI of the Credit Agreement are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date hereof after giving effect to this Amendment, except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate to an
earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties are true and correct as of such earlier date; 

(b) This Amendment has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Borrower and CSI and constitutes a legal, valid
and binding obligation of each such party, except as may be limited by general principles of equity or by the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar law affecting creditors’ rights generally; and

or warranty. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that, except as otherwise expressly stated in the Relevant Documents, no representations, warranties or commitments, express or implied, have been made by any party to the other. None of the terms

10. Successors and Assigns. This Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, CSI, the Agent
and each Lender and their respective successors and assignees to the extent such assignees are permitted assignees as provided in Section 11.06 of the Credit Agreement. 

11. Expenses. Without limiting the provisions of Section 11.04 of the Credit Agreement, the Borrower agrees to
pay all reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses (including without limitation reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred before or after the date hereof by the Agent and its Affiliates in connection with the preparation, negotiation,
