"Amendment") is made as of February 6, 1998, among XxXxxxx Aircraft Holdings,
Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Borrower"), Bank of America National Trust and
Savings Association, successor-by-merger to Bank of America Illinois,
individually as a lender ("BoA") and as agent ("Agent"), Comerica Bank -
California ("Comerica"), Mellon Bank, N.A. ("Mellon"), and Sumitomo Bank of
California ("Sumitomo"; Sumitomo, BoA, Comerica and Mellon being collectively
referred to as "Lenders").
Reference is made to that certain Loan and Security Agreement dated
as of April 15, 1997 among Borrower, Agent and Lenders (as amended or
otherwise modified to the date hereof, the "Loan Agreement"; capitalized
terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings ascribed to such
terms in the Loan Agreement).
Borrower has requested that all of the Lenders agree to amend the
Loan Agreement in certain respects.
NOW, THEREFORE, Agent, Lenders and Borrower agree as follows:
1. AMENDMENTS TO LOAN AGREEMENT. Subject to the conditions
precedent set forth in Section 4 of this Amendment, the Loan Agreement is
hereby amended as follows:
1.1. The definition of the term "Maximum Revolving Loan Amount" in
SECTION 1.1 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following
sentence to the end of such definition:
"Upon the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth
in that certain Amendment No. 2 to Loan and Security
Agreement dated as of February 6, 1998 among Borrower, Agent
and Lenders ("Amendment No. 2"), each Lender's then existing
Maximum Revolving Loan Amount shall automatically reduce on
the last day of each calendar month commencing January 31,
1999 by such Lender's Pro Rata Share (determined immediately
prior to the applicability of this sentence with respect to
any Lender for any applicable date) of $500,000."
1.2. The definition of the term "Revolving Credit Amount" in SECTION
1.1 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated as follows:
"Revolving Credit Amount" means the maximum amount of
Revolving Loans which Lenders will make available to
Borrower. Prior to the satisfaction of the
conditions precedent set forth in Amendment No. 2, the Revolving
Credit Amount shall be equal to $60,000,000. Upon the satisfaction
of the
conditions precedent set forth in Amendment No. 2,
the Revolving Credit Amount shall be equal to $75,000,000,
subject to automatic reduction by $500,000 on the last day
of each calendar month commencing January 31, 1999. The
Revolving Credit Amount shall be subject to reduction
pursuant to SECTION 2.1.2."
1.3. New SECTION 4.25 is hereby added to the Loan Agreement, which
section shall read as follows:
"4.25 YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE.
The Borrower has conducted a comprehensive review and
assessment of the computer applications of the Borrower and
its Subsidiaries with respect to, among other things,
computer application errors (including date-sensitive
functions) anticipated to occur in connection with the
advent of the calendar year 2000 (herein, the "Year 2000
Problem"). As a result of the foregoing review and
assessment, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries are taking
certain steps, including the upgrading of substantially all
existing software to newer, off-the-shelf integrated
manufacturing and business application software which will
be year 2000 compliant by early 1999. Based on the
foregoing, the Companies reasonably believe that the Year
2000 Problem will not result in a material adverse change in
the Companies' business condition (financial or otherwise),
operations, properties or prospects, in each case measured
against the Companies taken as a whole, or ability to repay
Liabilities."
1.4. Subject to automatic reduction in accordance with the Loan
Agreement as amended hereby, the Maximum Revolving Loan Amount of each Lender
shall be amended and restated as set forth on the signature pages to this
Amendment.
