W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, the Borrower and the Bank entered into a Revolving Loan Agreement
dated August 1, 1996 (the "Loan Agreement"); and
WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain First Amendment to Revolving Loan
Agreement dated effective as of December 31, 1996 (the "First Amendment"), the

Termination date until November 30, 1998; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Second amendment to Revolving Loan
Agreement dated effective as of September 1, 1997 (the "Second Amendment") (the
Loan Agreement as amended by the First Amendment and the Second Amendment being
hereinafter referred to as the "Loan Agreement As Amended"), the Bank and
Borrower further amended the Loan Agreement to extend the Revolving Loan
Termination Date until January 15, 1999 (except as otherwise herein specifically
provided, all capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have
the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Loan Agreement As Amended), all
as more specifically hereinafter set forth.
WHEREAS, the Borrower desires, and the Bank has agreed, to further modify
the Loan Agreement As Amended in order to extend the Revolving Loan Termination
Date until January 15, 2000, as well as to, concurrently herewith, modify the
terms of the Revolving Note to evidence such extension, and, further, to
acknowledge the Bank's release of the Guaranty, all as more specifically
hereinafter set forth.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Borrower and the Bank hereby modify the Loan Agreement
As Amended as follows:
1
1. Article I of the Loan Agreement As Amended is further modified by deleting
the definition of "Revolving Loan Termination Date" in its entirety and
substituting the following definition in lieu thereof:
"REVOLVING LOAN TERMINATION DATE" means the earlier of January 15,
2000, or the date the maturity of the Renewal Revolving Note is
accelerated pursuant to Section 7.2 of this Agreement.
2. Section 6.2(M) of the Loan Agreement As Amended is hereby deleted in
its entirety and the following new Section 6.2(M) substituted in lieu thereof:
(M) The Borrower will not issue, redeem, purchase or retire
any of its capital stock or grant or issue any warrant, right or
option pertaining thereto or any other security convertible into any
of the foregoing. The Borrower will not permit, and will cause KMG
Chemicals, Inc. ("KMG") not to permit, any voluntary transfer, sale,
redemption, retirement, or other change in the ownership of the
outstanding capital stock of the Borrower or of KMG by any of their
respective shareholders which results in a "Change in Control". For
purposes of this Section 7.2(M), "Change in Control" shall mean either
a change in the ownership of the outstanding capital stock of the
Borrower such that KMG owns less than fifty and 01/100 percent
(50.01%) of the outstanding capital stock of the Borrower, or a change
in the ownership of the outstanding capital stock of KMG such that
Xxxxx X. Xxxxxxx owns less than fifty and 01/100 percent (50.01%) of
the outstanding capital stock of KMG.
3. The Bank and the Borrower hereby acknowledge that, concurrently
herewith, the Bank is completely releasing the guaranty and all obligations of
the Guarantor thereunder and, in furtherance thereof, the Loan Agreement As
Amended and each of the other Loan Documents are hereby amended by deleting any
and all references therein to either the Guaranty or the Guarantor.
3. As a condition to the effectiveness of this Third Amendment, (a) the
Borrower shall have executed and delivered to the Bank an Amended and Restated
Revolving Note in the form of Exhibit A hereto, and any and all references in
the Loan Agreement As Amended or any of the other Loan Documents to a "Note",
"Revolving Note", "Promissory note" or any other terminology intending to refer
to the promissory note executed by the Borrower to evidence Borrower's
obligation to repay the Revolving Loan shall automatically be deemed to mean
said Amended and Restated Revolving Note, as the same may be further amended
from time to time.
4. Borrower represents and warrants to the Bank that all representations
and warranties given by Borrower in Article V of the Loan Agreement As Amended
are true and correct as of the date hereof, except to the extent affected by
this Third Amendment. Borrower represents and warrants to the Bank that

Amended and Restated Revolving Note.
4. Except as heretofore or herein expressly modified, or as may otherwise
be inconsistent with the terms of this Third Amendment (in which case the terms
and conditions of this Third Amendment shall govern), all terms of the Loan
Agreement As Amended shall be and remain in full force and effect, and the same
