Statement of
Purpose

 

The Lenders agreed to
extend certain credit facilities to the Borrower pursuant to the Second Amended
and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of November 4, 2003 by and among
the Borrower, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent and
the Documentation Agent (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise
modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”).  In connection therewith, certain of the
Subsidiaries of the Borrower executed the Subsidiary Guaranty Agreement dated
as of September 28, 2001 in favor of the Administrative Agent for the
ratable benefit of itself and the other Lenders (as reaffirmed by the
Reaffirmation Agreement dated as of November 4, 2003 and as further
amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Subsidiary
Guaranty Agreement”).

 

The parties now desire to
amend or modify certain provisions of the Credit Agreement in certain respects
on the terms and conditions set forth below.

 

NOW THEREFORE, for good
and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby
acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

1.                                       Capitalized
Terms.  All capitalized undefined
terms used in this Amendment shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the
Credit Agreement.

 

2.                                       Amendments
to the Credit Agreement.  The Credit
Agreement is hereby modified as follows:

 

(a)                                  Amendments
to Existing Definitions.  The
definition of the following defined terms which are set forth in Section 
1.1 of the Credit Agreement are hereby amended in their entirety as follows:

 

 

“Additional
Term Loan Effective Date” means (i) with respect to the First Additional
Term Loans, the First Amendment Effective Date and (ii) with respect to any
other Additional Term Loans, the date, which shall be a Business Day, on or
before the Term Loan Maturity Date, but no earlier than thirty (30) days after
any Increase Notification Date (unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative
Agent), on which each of the Increase Lenders make any Additional Term Loans to
the Borrower pursuant to Section 4.6.

 

“Notes” means the collective
reference to the Revolving Credit Notes, the Term Notes and the Swingline Note,
and “Note” means any of such Notes. 
From and after the First Amendment Effective Date, some or all of the
Loans may not be evidenced by Notes, and consequently, with respect to any Lender that has made Loans not
evidenced by Notes, any reference to a Revolving Credit Note, a Term Note, a
Swingline Note or a Note, shall, as applicable, be deemed to be a reference to
the related Obligations that would be represented by such Revolving Credit
Note, such Term Note, such Swingline Note or such Note had such Lender elected
to have its Loans represented by Notes.

 

(b)                                 Amendment to Add New Definitions.  
Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding the
following definitions thereto in the appropriate alphabetical order:

 

“First Additional Term Loans”
means the Additional Term Loans which were made to the Borrower by the Lenders
on the First Amendment Effective Date.

 

“First Amendment” means the
First Amendment to Credit Agreement dated as of February 6, 2004 by and
among the Borrower, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Lenders, the Administrative
Agent, the Syndication Agent and the Documentation Agent.

 

“First Amendment Effective Date”
means February 6, 2004.

 

(c)                                  Amendment to Section 4.3(b). 
The proviso to subsection (b) of Section 4.3 of the Credit
Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following is substituted in
lieu thereof:

 

provided
that (i) if not sooner paid, such Additional Term Loans shall be paid in full,
together with accrued interest thereon, on the Term Loan Maturity Date and (ii)
the amounts of individual installments may be adjusted pursuant to
Section 4.4.

 

(d)                                 Amendments to Section 4.6. 
Section 4.6 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by:

 

(i)                                     deleting subsection (a) in its
entirety and inserting the following in lieu thereof:

 

(a)                                  Subject
to the conditions set forth below, the Borrower shall have the option,
exercisable on no more than three (3) occasions following the Closing Date
until the Term Loan Maturity Date, to incur additional indebtedness under this
Agreement in the form of an increase of the Term Loan Commitment of up to Three
Hundred Thirty-Five Million Four

Hundred Ten Thousand
Dollars ($335,410,000).  The Borrower,
by providing an Increase Notification, may request that additional Term Loans
be made on the applicable Additional Term Loan Effective Date pursuant to such
increase in the Term Loan Commitment (each such additional Term Loan, an “Additional
Term Loan”, and collectively, the “Additional Term Loans”).  The Borrower, the Administrative Agent and
the Lenders hereby agree and acknowledge that the Borrower first exercised the
option set forth in this subsection (a) on the First Amendment Effective
Date in connection with the incurrence of First Additional Term Loans in the
amount of $235,410,000.

 

(ii)                                  by
adding the following parenthetical at the end of clause (iv) in
subsection (c):

 

(provided
that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree that the financial
projections and the financial condition certificate delivered as of the Closing
Date shall be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of this
Section 4.6(c)(iv) with respect to the First Additional Term Loans)

 

(iii)                               deleting clause (vii) in
subsection (c) in its entirety and inserting the following in lieu
thereof:

 

(vii)
the amount of such increase in the Term Loan Commitment and any Additional Term
Loans obtained thereunder shall not be less than a minimum principal amount of
$10,000,000, or any whole multiple of $5,000,000 in excess thereof (unless otherwise
agreed to by the Administrative Agent);

 

(iv)                              deleting subsection (f) in its
entirety and inserting the following in lieu thereof:

 

(f)                                    Within five (5) Business Days after
receipt of notice, upon the request of any existing Lender or with respect to
any Lender not theretofore a Lender, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to
the Administrative Agent, in exchange for any surrendered Term Note of any such
Lender, a new Term Note to the order of such Lender in amounts equal to the
Term Loan Commitment of such Lender as set forth in the Register. Such new Term
Note shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal
amount of the Term Loan Commitment of such Lender, shall be dated as of the
applicable Additional Term Loan Effective Date and shall otherwise be in
substantially the form of the existing Term Notes.  Each surrendered Term Note and/or Term Notes shall be canceled
and returned to the Borrower.

 

(e)                                  Amendment
to Section 9.12. 
Section 9.12 of the Credit Agreement is hereby deleted in its
entirety and the following is substituted in lieu thereof:

 

SECTION 9.12                    Use of
Proceeds.  The Borrower shall use
the proceeds of the Extensions of Credit (a) to finance the IDT Merger
(including the refinancing of certain existing Debt of IDT) (b) to finance
Permitted Acquisitions, (c) to refinance existing indebtedness of the Borrower,
(d) to finance Capital Expenditures of the Borrower, and (e)

 

3

 

for working capital and
general corporate requirements of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries,
including the payment of certain fees and expenses incurred in connection with
the IDT Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the proceeds
of the First Additional Term Loans shall be used to refinance the Initial Term
Loans on the First Amendment Effective Date.

 

3.                                       Additional
Term Loan Agreement.  The Applicable
Margin and the terms for repayment of the First Additional Term Loans are set
forth on Schedule 1 attached hereto and in Articles IV and V of the
Credit Agreement; provided that the terms set forth on Schedule 1
attached hereto shall control to the extent such terms conflict with the terms
of Articles IV and V of the Credit Agreement. 
For the purpose of Section 4.6 of the Credit Agreement, this
Amendment shall constitute the Additional Term Loan Agreement with respect to
the Additional Term Loans being made on the date hereof.

 

4.                                       Conversion
of the Initial Term Loans into Additional Term Loans.

 

(a)                                  The parties hereby agree that upon the First
Amendment Effective Date, the Initial Term
Loans of each Lender that will hold First Additional Term Loans on the First
Amendment Effective Date (each such Lender,
a “Converting Lender”) shall be converted into First Additional Term
Loans, in each case in the amounts and the percentages, as applicable, set
forth in the Register for such Converting Lender.  In the event that, immediately after giving effect to the
payments, conversions and reallocations on the Conversion Date as contemplated
by this Section 4(a), the outstanding principal amount of a Converting
Lender’s First Additional Term Loans will exceed the outstanding principal
amount of such Converting Lender’s Initial Term Loans immediately prior to
giving effect to such payments, conversions and reallocations, then such
Converting Lender shall make an advance in an amount equal to such excess.
Furthermore, the Administrative Agent shall make such reallocations of
outstanding Term Loans of each Converting Lender as are necessary in order that
the First Additional Term Loans of such Converting Lender reflect such
Converting Lender’s Term Loan Commitment, in each case as set forth on the
Register immediately after giving effect to the payments, conversions and
reallocations contemplated in this Section 4(a).

 

(b)                                 As of the First Amendment Effective Date, after giving effect to the payments,
conversions and reallocations described in Section 4(a), the aggregate
outstanding amount of the First Additional Term Loans shall be $235,410,000.  The
outstanding Initial Term Loans of all Lenders other than the Converting Lenders
(the “Departing Lenders”) shall be repaid in full from the proceeds of
the First Additional Term Loans and terminated and each such Departing Lender
shall cease to be a Lender with respect to Term Loans under the Credit
Agreement.  In addition, on the First
Amendment Effective Date, the Initial Term
Loans shall be entirely re-evidenced and replaced with the First Additional
Term Loans.  The Borrower hereby agrees
that after the First Amendment Effective Date, neither the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent, the
Documentation Agent nor any Lender shall have any further obligations with
respect to the Initial Term Loans.

 

(c)                                  All
Term Notes issued by the Borrower to any Lender
in connection with the Initial Term Loans shall be canceled and be
promptly returned to the Borrower.  Upon
the request of any

 

4

 

Lender
in connection with the First Additional Term Loans, the Borrower shall execute
and deliver to such Lender new Term
Notes.

 

(d)                                 To
the extent any conversion, reallocation or prepayment provided in this
Section 4 is deemed to conflict with any of the provisions of Articles IV
or V of the Credit Agreement (including, without limitation,
Section 4.6(d)), any such conflicting provisions are hereby waived for
purposes of this Amendment.

 

(e)                                  The
events and transactions described and contemplated in this Section 4 are
not intended to, and shall not, constitute a novation of the Credit Agreement
or any of the indebtedness incurred in connection therewith, including, without
limitation, any Obligations.

 

5.                                       Consent.          Subject

Amendment, the Lenders executing this Amendment or the Authorization consent to

each such transaction and such documentation shall be in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and (ii) each such
