I. Definitions.

II. Amendments to Credit Agreement.

A. Section 3.3 [Term Loan Notes] of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated as follows:

“3.3 Term Loan Notes.

The Obligation of the Borrower to repay the unpaid principal amount of the Term Loans made to it by each Bank, together with interest thereon, shall be evidenced by a Term Note dated on or about December 19, 2005 in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit 1.1(T) payable to the order of each Bank in a face amount equal to the Term Loan of such Bank. The principal amount as provided therein of the Term Notes shall be payable in 15 quarterly installments on the first day of each February, May, August, and November after the date of such Term Notes, each in the amount of $1,000,000, commencing on May 1, 2006 through August 1, 2009, with a final payment of all outstanding principal and interest on the Term Loans due on the Term Loan Maturity Date.”

B. Section 8.2.8 [Affiliate Transactions] of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated as follows:

“8.2.8 Affiliate Transactions.

Each of the Loan Parties shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, enter into or carry out any transaction with an Affiliate (other than a Loan Party or a wholly-owned Subsidiary of a Loan Party to the extent not otherwise prohibited by this Agreement) (including purchasing property or services from or selling property or services to any Affiliate of any Loan Party or other Person) unless such transaction is not otherwise prohibited by this Agreement, is entered into in the ordinary course of business upon fair and reasonable arm’s-length terms and conditions which are of a type which are or have previously been fully disclosed to the Administrative Agent and is in accordance with all applicable Law; it being agreed that prior to the payment of the fee described in the next succeeding sentence, the performance of the Advisory Services Agreement, dated as of December 1, 1997 (the “Advisory Services Agreement”), between the Borrower and Saratoga is permitted hereunder, and the payment by the Borrower of the fees in the amounts set forth in Sections 3(b) and (c), 4 and 5 of the Advisory Services Agreement is permitted hereunder. Effective upon the initial public offering of KI Holdings, the Borrower is permitted to terminate the Advisory Services Agreement, and in connection therewith, the Borrower is permitted to pay a financial advisor services termination fee in an amount not to exceed $3,000,000 (the “Financial Advisor Services Termination Fee”). Upon payment by the Borrower of such Financial Advisor Services Termination Fee, the Advisory Services Agreement is terminated and no further payments shall be permitted to be made in connection with the Advisory Services Agreement.”

C. Section 9.1.13 [Change of Control] of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated as follows:

“9.1.13 Change of Control.

(i) any Person other than the Investors and their controlled (but not controlling or commonly controlled) Affiliates shall become the beneficial owner of more than 50% of the voting stock of the Borrower or shall obtain the power to nominate or elect, by agreement or otherwise, at least a majority of the board of directors of the Borrower, (ii) a “Change of Control” as defined in the 2003 Senior Note Indenture shall occur, or (iii) the Borrower shall cease to own 100% of the capital stock, member interests or partnership interests of any Loan Party except as permitted in this Agreement or following the consent of the Required Banks;”

III. Increase of Term Loan Commitments.

The Borrower, the other Loan Parties, and the Banks hereby agree to increase the Term Loan Commitments from the current outstanding amount of $9,500,000 to $19,000,000 and Schedule 1.1(B) [Commitments of Banks and Addresses for Notices] to the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated to read as set forth on the Schedule 1.1(B) attached to this Consent and Amendment, so that after giving effect to such increase, each Bank has the Commitments as set forth opposite such Bank’s name on the amended and restated Schedule 1.1(B) attached to this Consent and Amendment. The additional $10,000,000 of new funding, with respect to the Term Loan, provided under this Consent and Amendment shall be funded on or about December 19, 2005 upon consummation of all the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5 hereof.

IV. Consent.

The Banks hereby agree as follows:

(i) pursuant to Section 8.2.14.2 [Changes in 2003 Senior Note Debt Documents; Prohibition on Repurchase or Prepayment], the Banks hereby consent to a change in the definition of “Change of Control” in the 2003 Senior Note Indenture to provide that a public offering of the common stock of KI Holdings will be deemed a public offering of the common stock of the Borrower and therefore not constitute a “Change of Control” under the 2003 Senior Note Indenture; and

(ii) pursuant to Section 8.1.6 [Visitation Rights; Collateral Examinations], the Banks hereby consent to defer completion of the 2005 annual collateral audit and field examination until on or before March 31, 2006.

V. Conditions Precedent.
