to the Credit Agreement, the Lenders have extended credit to the Borrowers.

 

B.                                     The
Borrowers have requested that the Credit Agreement be amended to
(i) permit the sale of the Stock of Genset SpA (the “Genset
Sale”) and Soldaduras Soltec Ltda. (the “Soltec
Sale”) and (ii) make certain other changes to the Credit
Agreement, as set forth herein.

 

C.                                     Capitalized
terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in
the Credit Agreement.

 

Accordingly, in
consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained and other good and
valuable consideration, the sufficiency and receipt of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

SECTION 1.  Amendment to Credit
Agreement.  Section 6.08 (Sale
of Stock and Assets) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by (i) deleting
the word “and” at the end of clause (f) thereof and (ii) replacing the period
at the end of clause (g) thereof with:

 

 

“; and

 

(h)  the sale of the Stock of (i) Genset SpA
for an aggregate amount of not less than $10,000,000 in cash and assumption of
debt (the “Genset Sale”) and (ii)
Soldaduras Soltec Ltda. for an aggregate amount of not less than $7,500,000 in
cash and assumption of debt (the “Soltec Sale”),
so long as the net proceeds of each of the Genset Sale and the Soltec Sale
shall be distributed to a Borrower.”

 

SECTION 2.  Use of Proceeds and Permanent
Reduction of Revolving Loan Commitments.  (a) The Borrowers hereby
agree that the cash proceeds of each of the Genset Sale and the Soltec Sale, net
of (A) commissions and other reasonable and customary transaction
costs, fees and expenses properly attributable to such transaction and payable
by the Borrowers in connection therewith (in each case, paid to
non-Affiliates), (B) transfer taxes, and (C) an appropriate reserve
for income taxes in accordance with GAAP in connection therewith, shall be utilized solely to prepay a portion
of the principal balance of the Revolving Credit Advances (as defined in the
First Lien Credit Agreement);

 

(b) In connection with
the prepayment described in paragraph (a) above, the Borrowers agree that the
Revolving Loan Commitments (as defined in the First Lien Credit Agreement),
with respect to all lenders under the First Lien Credit Agreement, shall be
permanently reduced from $80,000,000 to $70,000,000 on the date hereof; and

 

(c) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth in the Credit Agreement, the Borrowers
hereby agree that a breach of any of the agreements in paragraph (a) or (b)
above shall be deemed to constitute an Event of Default.

 

SECTION 3.  Representations
and Warranties.  To induce the other parties hereto to enter
into this Amendment, the Credit Parties represent and warrant to each of the
Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, that, after giving
effect to this Amendment, (a) the representations and warranties set forth
in Article III of the Credit Agreement are true and correct in all
material respects on and as of the date hereof, except to the extent such
representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date, and
(b) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

 

SECTION 4.  Effectiveness.  This
Amendment shall become effective as of the date set forth above on the date
that the Administrative Agent (or its counsel) shall have received:

 

(a)  counterparts of this Amendment that, when
taken together, bear the signatures of the Credit Parties and the Required
Lenders; and

 

(b)  a copy of a fully executed and delivered
amendment, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent, to the First Lien Credit Agreement.

 

SECTION 5.  Effect of
Amendment.  Except as expressly set forth herein, this
Amendment shall not by implication or otherwise limit, impair, constitute a
waiver of, or otherwise affect the rights and remedies of the Lenders, the
Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent under the Credit Agreement or any
other Loan Document, and shall not alter,

 

2

 

modify, amend or in any way
affect any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements
contained in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, all of which are
ratified and affirmed in all respects and shall continue in full force and
effect.  Nothing herein shall be deemed
to entitle any Credit Party to a consent to, or a waiver, amendment,
modification or other change of, any of the terms, conditions, obligations,
covenants or agreements contained in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan
Document in similar or different circumstances. 
This Amendment shall apply and be effective only with respect to the
provisions of the Credit Agreement specifically referred to herein.  After the date hereof, any reference to the
Credit Agreement shall mean the Credit Agreement, as modified hereby.  This Amendment shall constitute a “Loan Document”
for all purposes of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

 

SECTION 6.  Counterparts.  This
Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different
parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and
delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall
constitute but one and the same contract. 
Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this
Amendment by facsimile transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a
manually executed counterpart hereof.

 

SECTION 7.  Applicable Law.  THIS
AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF
THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

 

SECTION 8.  Headings.  The
headings of this Amendment are for purposes of reference only and shall not
limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.

 

SECTION 9.  Expenses.  The
Borrowers agree to reimburse the Administrative Agent for all out-of-pocket
expenses in connection with this Amendment, including the reasonable fees,
charges and disbursements of Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP, counsel for
the Administrative Agent.

 

SECTION 10.  Reaffirmation.  Each
of the Guarantors hereby acknowledges receipt and notice of, and consents to
the terms of, this Amendment, and affirms and confirms its guarantee of the
Obligations and, if applicable, the pledge of and/or grant of a security
interest in its assets as Collateral to secure the Obligations, all as provided
in the Collateral Documents as originally executed, and acknowledges and agrees
that such guarantee, pledge and/or grant of security interest continue in full
force and effect in respect of, and to secure, the Obligations under the Credit
Agreement, as amended hereby, and the other Loan Documents.

UNIVERSAL NOTE

ExpereTM © 1984, 1991 Bankers Systems, Inc., St. Cloud, MN Form UN-FL 3/4/2002

VMP®-C154(FL) (0301)                         VMP MORTGAGE FORMS – (800) 521-7291

(page 1 of 2)

DEFINITIONS: As used on page 1, “ý” means the terms that apply to this loan. “I” “me” or “my” means each Borrower who signs this note and each other person or legal entity (including guarantors, endorsers, and sureties) who agree to pay this note (together referred to as “us”). “You” or “your” means the Lender and its successors and assigns.

APPLICABLE LAW: The law of the state of Florida will govern this note. Any term of this note which is contrary to applicable law will not be effective, unless the law permits you and me to agree to such a variation. If any provision of this agreement cannot be enforced according to its terms, this fact will not affect the enforceability of the remainder of this agreement. No modification of this agreement may be made without your express written consent. Time is of the essence in this agreement.

COMMISSIONS OR OTHER REMUNERATION: I understand and agree that any insurance premiums paid to insurance companies as part of this note will involve money retained by you or paid back to you as commissions or other remuneration.

In addition, I understand and agree that some other payments to third parties as part of this note may also involve money retained by you or paid back to you as commissions or other remuneration.

PAYMENTS: Each payment I make on this note will first reduce the amount I owe you for charges which are neither interest nor principal. The remainder of each payment will then reduce accrued unpaid interest, and then unpaid principal. If you and I agree to a different application of payments, we will describe our agreement on this note. I may prepay a part of, or the entire balance of this loan without penalty, unless we specify to the contrary on this note. Any partial prepayment will not excuse or reduce any later scheduled payment until this note is paid in full (unless, when I make the prepayment, you and I agree in writing to the contrary).

INTEREST: Interest accrues on the principal remaining unpaid from time to time, until paid in full. If I receive the principal in more than one advance, each advance will start to earn interest only when I receive the advance. The interest rate in effect on this note at any given time will apply to the entire principal advanced at that time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, I do not agree to pay and you do not intend to charge any rate of interest that is higher than the maximum rate of interest you could charge under applicable law for the extension of credit that is agreed to here (either before or after maturity). If any notice of interest accrual is sent and is in error, we mutually agree to correct it, and if you actually collect more interest than allowed by law and this agreement, you agree to refund it to me.

INDEX RATE: The index will serve only as a device for settling the rate on this note. You do not guarantee by selecting this index, or the margin, that the rate on this note will be the same rate you charge on any other loans or class of loans to me or other borrowers.

ACCRUAL METHOD: The amount of interest that I will pay on this loan will be calculated using the interest rate and accrual method stated o page 1 of this note. For the purpose of interest calculation, the accrual method will determine the number of days in a “year.” If no accrual method is stated, then you may use any reasonable accrual method for calculating interest.

POST MATURITY RATE: For purposes of deciding when the “Post Maturity Rate” (shown on page 1) applies, the term “maturity” means the date of the last scheduled payment indicated on page 1 of this note or the date you accelerate payment on the note, whichever is earlier.

SINGLE ADVANCE LOANS: If this is a single advance loan, you and I expect that you will make only one advance of principal. However, you may add other amounts to the principal if you make any payments described in the “PAYMENTS BY LENDER” paragraph below.

MULTIPLE ADVANCE LOANS: If this is a multiple advance loan, you and I expect that you will make more than one advance of principal. If this is closed end credit, repaying a part of the principal will not entitle me to additional credit.

PAYMENTS BY LENDER: If you are authorized to pay, on my behalf, charges I am obligated to pay (such as property insurance premiums), then you may treat those payments made by you as advances and add them to the unpaid principal under this note, or you may demand immediate payment of the charges.

SET-OFF: I agree that you may set off any amount due and payable under this note against any right I have to receive money from you.

“Right to receive money from you” means:

(1)

any deposit account balance I have with you;

(2)

any money owed to me on an item presented to you or in your possession for collection or exchange; and

(3)

any repurchase agreement or other nondeposit obligation.

“Any amount due and payable under this note” means the total amount of which you are entitled to demand payment under the terms of this note at the time you set off. This total includes any balance the due date for which you properly accelerate under this note.

If my right to receive money from you is also owned by someone who has not agreed to pay this note, your right of set-off will apply to my interest in the obligation and to any other amounts I could withdraw on my sole request or endorsement. Your right of set-off does not apply to an account or other obligation where my rights are only as a representative. It also does not apply to any Individual Retirement Account or other tax-deferred retirement account.

You will not be liable for the dishonor of any check when the dishonor occurs because you set off this debt against any of my accounts. I agree to hold you harmless from any such claims arising as a result of our exercise of your right of set-off.

REAL ESTATE OR RESIDENCE SECURITY: If this note is secured by real estate or a residence that is personal property, the existence of a default and your remedies for such a default will be determined by applicable law, by the terms of any separate instrument creating the security interest and, to the extent not prohibited by law and not contrary to the terms of the separate security instrument, by the “Default” and “Remedies” paragraphs herein.

DEFAULT: I will be in default if any one or more of the following occur: (1) I fail to make a payment on time or in the amount due; (2) I fail to keep the property insured, if required; (3) I fail to pay, or keep any promise, on any debt or agreement I have with you; (4) any other creditor of mine attempts to collect any debt I owe him through court proceedings; (5) I die, am declared incompetent, make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or become insolvent (either because my liabilities exceed my assets or I am unable to pay my debts as they become due); (6) I make any written statement or provide any financial information that is untrue or inaccurate at the time it was provided; (7) I do or fail to do something which causes you to believe that you will have difficulty collecting the amount I owe you; (8) any collateral securing this note is used in a manner or for a purpose which threatens confiscation by a legal authority; (9) I change my name or assume an additional name without first notifying you before making such a change; (10) I fail to plant, cultivate and harvest crops in due season; (11) any loan proceeds are used for a purpose that will contribute to excessive erosion of highly erodible land or to the conversion of wetlands to produce an agricultural commodity, as further explained in 7 C.F.R. Part 1940, Subpart G, Exhibit M.

REMEDIES: If I am in default on this note you have, but are not limited to, the following remedies:

(1)

You may demand immediate payment of all I owe you under this note (principal, accrued unpaid interest and other accrued charges).

(2)

You may set off this debt against any right I have to the payment of money from you, subject to the terms of the “Set-Off” paragraph herein.

(3)

You may demand security, additional security, or additional parties to be obligated to pay this note as a condition for not using any other remedy.

(4)

You may refuse to make advances to me or allow purchases on credit by me.

(5)

You may use any remedy you have under state or federal law.

By selecting any one or more of these remedies you do not give up your right to later use any other remedy. By waiving your right to declare an event to be a default, you do not waive your right to later consider the event as a default if it continues or happens again.

COLLECTION COSTS AND ATTORNEY’S FEES: I agree to pay all costs of collection, replevin or any other or similar type of cost if I am in default. In addition, if you hire an attorney to collect this note, I also agree to pay any reasonable fee you incur with such attorney plus court costs (except where prohibited by law). I agree that reasonable attorneys’ fees shall be construed to mean 10% of the principal sum named in this note, or such larger fee that the court may determine to be reasonable and just. To the extent permitted by the United States Bankruptcy Code. I also agreed to pay the reasonable attorney’s fees and costs you incur to collect this debt as awarded by any court exercising jurisdiction under the Bankruptcy Code.

WAIVER: I give up my rights to require you to do certain things. I will not require you to:

(1)

demand payment of amounts due (presentment);

(2)

obtain official certification of nonpayment (protest); or

(3)

give notice that amounts due have not been paid (notice of dishonor).

I waive any defenses I have based on suretyship or impairment of collateral.

To the extent permitted by law, I also waive my right to a trial by jury in respect to any litigation arising from this note and any other agreement executed in conjunction with this credit transaction.

OBLIGATIONS INDEPENDENT: I understand that I must pay this note even if someone else has also agreed to pay it (by, for example, signing this form or a separate guarantee or endorsement). You may sue me alone, or anyone else who is obligated on this note, or any number of us together, to collect this note. You may do so without any notice that it has not been paid (notice of dishonor). You may without notice release any party to this agreement without releasing any other party. If you give up any of your rights, with or without notice, it will not affect my duty to pay this note. Any extension of new credit to any of us, or renewal of this note by all or less than all of us will not release me from my duty to pay it. (Of course, you are entitled to only one payment in full.) I agree that you may at your option extend this note or the debt represented by this note, or any portion of the note or debt, from time to time without limit or notice and for any term without affecting my liability for payment of the note. I will not assign my obligation under this agreement without your prior written approval.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION: I agree to provide you, upon request, any financial statement or information you may deem necessary. I warrant that the financial statements and information I provide to you are or will be accurate, correct and complete.

NOTICE: Unless otherwise required by law, any notice to me shall be given by delivering it or by mailing it by first class mail addressed to me at my last known address. My current address is on page 1. I agree to inform you in writing of any change in my address. I will give any notice to you by mailing it first class to your address stated on page 1 of this agreement, or to any other address that you have designated.
