All such payments shall be made absolutely net of, without deduction or offset, and altogether free and clear of any and all present and future taxes, levies, deductions, charges, and withholdings and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding income and franchise taxes imposed on the Banks under the Laws of the United States or any state or political subdivision thereof. If the Borrower is compelled by Law to deduct any such taxes or to make any such other deductions, charges, or withholdings (collectively, the "Required Deductions"), the Borrower will pay to the Agent for the ratable benefit of the Banks an additional amount equal to the sum of (i) the aggregate amount of all Required Deductions and (ii) the aggregate amount of United States federal or state income taxes required to be paid by the Banks in respect of such Required Deductions.
20. Section 2.15 of the Loan Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and in its stead is inserted the following:
2.15 Loan Account.
The Agent will open and maintain on its books and records, including computer records, in accordance with its customary procedures, a loan account (the "Loan Account") for the Borrower in which shall be recorded the date and amount of each Loan made by the Banks and the date and amount of each payment and prepayment in respect thereof. The Agent shall record in the Loan Account the principal amount of the Loans owing to each Bank from time to time. The Loan Account shall constitute presumptive evidence of the accuracy of the information contained therein (including the Equivalent Amounts of the applicable currencies where such computations are required). Any failure by the Agent to make any such notation or record shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower to the Banks with respect to the Loans.
21. The following is hereby inserted as a new Section 2.17 of the Loan Agreement:
2.17 Utilization of Commitments in Optional Currencies.
(a) Periodic Computations of Dollar Equivalent Amounts of Revolving Credit Loans. The Agent will determine the Dollar Equivalent amount of (i) proposed Revolving Credit Loans to be denominated in an Optional Currency as of the requested borrowing date, and (ii) outstanding Revolving Credit Loans denominated in an Optional Currency as of the end of each Interest Period (each such date under clauses (i) and (ii), a "Computation Date").
(b) Notices From Banks That Optional Currencies Are Unavailable to Fund New Revolving Credit Loans. The Banks shall be under no obligation to make the Revolving Credit Loans requested by the Borrower which are denominated in an Optional Currency if any Bank notifies the Agent by 5:00 p.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time), four (4) Business Days prior to the borrowing date for such Loans that such Bank cannot provide its share of such Loans in such Optional Currency due to the introduction of, or any change in, any applicable Law or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Official Body charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by such Bank (or any of its lending offices) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of Law) of any such Official Body which would make it unlawful or impossible for such Bank (or any of its lending offices) to honor its obligations hereunder to make a Revolving Credit Loan in an Optional Currency. In the event the Agent timely receives a notice from a Bank pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Agent will notify the Borrower no later than 12:00 noon (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time), three (3) Business Days prior to the borrowing date for such Loans that the Optional Currency is not then available for such Loans, and the Agent shall promptly thereafter notify the Banks of the same. If the Borrower receives a notice described in the preceding sentence, the Borrower may, by notice to the Agent not later than 5:00 p.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time), three (3) Business Days prior to the borrowing date for such Loans, withdraw the loan request for such Loans. If the Borrower withdraws such loan request, the Agent will promptly notify each Bank of the same and the Banks shall not make such Loans. If the Borrower does not withdraw such loan request before such time, (i) the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested that the Loans referred to in its loan request shall be made in Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent amount of such Loans and shall bear interest under the Prime Rate, and (ii) the Agent shall promptly deliver a notice to each Bank stating: (A) that such Loans shall be made in Dollars and shall bear interest under the Prime Rate, (B) the aggregate amount of such Loans, and (C) such Bank's Pro Rata Share of such Loans.
(c) Notices From Banks That Optional Currencies Are Unavailable to Fund Renewals of Libor Rate Loans Denominated in an Optional Currency. If the Borrower delivers a loan request requesting that the Banks renew any Libor Rate Loan which is denominated in an Optional Currency, the Banks shall be under no obligation to renew such Libor Rate Loan if any Bank delivers to the Agent a notice by 5:00 p.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time), four (4) Business Days prior to effective date of such renewal that such Bank cannot continue to provide Loans in such Optional Currency due to the introduction of, or any change in, any applicable Law or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Official Body charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by such Bank (or any of its lending offices) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of Law) of any such Official Body which would make it unlawful or impossible for such Bank (or any of its lending offices) to honor its obligations hereunder to make a Loan in an Optional Currency. In the event the Agent timely receives a notice from a Bank pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Agent will notify the Borrower no later than 12:00 noon (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time), three (3) Business Days prior to the renewal date that the renewal of such Loans in such Optional Currency is not then available, and the Agent shall promptly thereafter notify the Banks of the same. If the Agent shall have so notified the Borrower that any such continuation of Optional Currency Loans is not then available, any notice of renewal with respect thereto shall be deemed withdrawn, and such Optional Currency Loans shall be redenominated into Prime Rate Loans with effect from the last day of the Interest Period with respect to any such Optional Currency Loans. The Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Banks of any such redenomination, and in such notice, the Agent will state the aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of the redenominated Optional Currency Loans as of the Computation Date with respect thereto and such Bank's Pro Rate Share thereof.
(d) Requests for Additional Optional Currencies. The Borrower may deliver to the Agent a written request that Revolving Credit Loans hereunder also be permitted to be made in any other lawful currency (other than Dollars), in addition to the currencies specified in the definition of "Optional Currency" herein provided that such currency must be freely traded in the offshore interbank foreign exchange markets, freely transferable, freely convertible into Dollars and available to the Banks in the applicable interbank market. The Agent will promptly notify the Banks of any such request promptly after the Agent receives such request. The Agent and each Bank may grant or accept such request in its sole discretion. The Agent will promptly notify the Borrower of the acceptance or rejection by the Agent and each of the Banks of the Borrower's request. The requested currency shall be approved as an Optional Currency hereunder only if the Agent and all of the Banks approve of the Borrower's request.
22. The following is hereby inserted as a new Section 2.18 of the Loan Agreement:
2.18 Currency Repayments.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the entire amount of principal of and interest on any Revolving Credit Loan made in an Optional Currency shall be repaid in the same Optional Currency in which such Loan was made, provided, however, that (a) if it is impossible or illegal for Borrower to effect payment of a Loan in the Optional Currency in which such Loan was made, (b) if Borrower defaults in its obligations to do so, or (c) if a Libor Rate Loan denominated in an Optional Currency automatically converts to a Prime Rate Loan pursuant to Section 2.03(c) hereof, the Majority Banks may at their option (and, in the case of (a) above shall) permit such payment to be made (i) at and to a different location, subsidiary, affiliate or correspondent of Agent, or (ii) in the Equivalent Amount of Dollars or (iii) in an Equivalent Amount of such other currency (freely convertible into Dollars) as the Majority Banks may solely at their option designate. Upon any events described in (i) through (iii) of the preceding sentence, Borrower shall make such payment and Borrower agrees to hold each Bank harmless from and against any loss incurred by any Bank arising from the cost to such Bank of any premium, any costs of exchange, the cost of hedging and covering the Optional Currency in which such Loan was originally made, and from any change in the value of Dollars, or such other currency, in relation to the Optional Currency that was due and owing. Such loss shall be calculated for the period commencing with the first day of the Interest Period for such Loan and continuing through the date of payment thereof.
23. The following is hereby inserted as a new Section 2.19 of the Loan Agreement:
2.19 Optional Currency Amounts.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Agent may, with respect to notices by Borrower for Revolving Credit Loans in an Optional Currency or voluntary prepayments of less than the full amount of a Loan denominated in an Optional Currency, engage in reasonable rounding (in accordance with the Agent's usual and customary Optional Currency policies) of the Optional Currency amounts requested to be loaned or repaid; and, in such event, Agent shall promptly notify Borrower and the Banks of such rounded amounts and Borrower's request or notice shall thereby be deemed to reflect such rounded amounts.
24. The following is hereby inserted as a new Section 2.20 of the Loan Agreement:
2.20 Mandatory Prepayments for Currency Fluctuations.
If on any Computation Date the sum of the aggregate Dollar Equivalent principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans outstanding and the aggregate Letters of Credit Outstanding is equal to or greater than one hundred percent (100%) of the Revolving Credit Facility Commitment as a result of a change in exchange rates between one (1) or more Optional Currencies and Dollars, then the Agent shall notify the Borrower of the same. The Borrower shall pay or prepay Revolving Credit Loans (subject to Borrower's indemnity obligations under Section 2.12) within one (1) Business Day after receiving such notice such that the Dollar Equivalent principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans outstanding and the aggregate Letters of Credit Outstanding shall not exceed the Revolving Credit Facility Commitment after giving effect to such payments or prepayments.
25. The following is hereby inserted as a new Section 2.21 of the Loan Agreement:
2.21 Increase of Revolving Credit Facility Commitment.
If at any time after the Closing Date, and so long as no Event of Default or Potential Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower desires to increase the Commitments, (each, an "Additional Increase") the Borrower shall notify the Agent in writing, who will promptly notify each Bank thereof, provided that any such Additional Increase shall be in a minimum of Ten Million and 00/100 Dollars ($10,000,000.00) and the aggregate of all such Additional Increases shall not exceed Twenty Five Million and 00/100 Dollars ($25,000,000.00). The existing Banks shall have the right at any time within fourteen (14) days following such notice to increase their respective Commitment by providing written notice of the same to the Agent so as to provide such additional Commitment pro-rata in accordance with such Bank's Pro Rata Share, and any portion of such Additional Increase which is not provided by any such existing Bank shall be available to the other existing Banks; provided, that if more than one existing Bank desires to increase its Commitment in respect of the portion of such Additional Increase not provided by an existing Bank, such participating Banks shall provide such portion of the additional Commitments on a pro rata basis in accordance with the proportion that their Pro Rata Share bears to each other, and thereafter, to the extent not provided by existing Banks, to any additional lending institution or institutions proposed by the Borrower and which is approved by the Agent (which approval will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and which becomes a party to this Agreement pursuant to documentation reasonably acceptable to the Agent and prepared at the Borrower's expense, which documentation may be executed by the Borrower and the Agent (as agent for the Banks) without further consent or action of the Banks, such consent hereby deemed to be irrevocably given to the Agent by the Banks; provided, however, that the Borrower shall have the right to have the entire amount of each Additional Increase provided by such approved additional lending institution or institutions if all the existing Banks decline to increase their Commitments to accommodate any such Additional Increase. In the event of any such Additional Increase in the aggregate Commitments and in the Commitment of any Bank effected pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.21, new Notes shall, to the extent deemed reasonably necessary or appropriate by the Agent, be executed and delivered by the Borrower, and the affected Banks shall promptly surrender and cancel the existing Notes; and the Borrower shall execute and deliver such additional documentation setting forth the new Commitments and Pro Rata Shares as the Agent shall reasonably request (which documentation may be executed by the Borrower and the Agent (as agent for the Banks) without further consent or action of the Banks, such consent herein is deemed to be irrevocably given to the Agent by the Banks).
26. Section 5.16 of the Loan Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and in its stead is inserted the following:
5.16 Subsidiary Guaranty Agreements.
Each Domestic Subsidiary of a Loan Party created or acquired subsequent to the Closing Date shall immediately execute and deliver to the Agent a Guaranty Agreement, along with such corporate governance and authorization documents as may be deemed reasonably necessary or advisable by the Agent and the Banks; provided, however, that a Domestic Subsidiary shall not be required to execute such Guaranty Agreement so long as (i) the total assets (excluding all loans and advances made to such Subsidiary from a Loan Party or a Subsidiary of a Loan Party) of such Domestic Subsidiary are less than Fifty Million and 00/100 Dollars ($50,000,000.00), and (ii) the aggregate of the total assets (excluding all loans and advances made to such Subsidiary from a Loan Party or a Subsidiary of a Loan Party) of all such Domestic Subsidiaries with total asset values (excluding all loans and advances made to such Subsidiary from a Loan Party or a Subsidiary of a Loan Party) of less than Fifty Million and 00/100 Dollars ($50,000,000.00) does not exceed the aggregate amount of One Hundred Twenty-Five Million and 00/100 Dollars ($125,000,000.00). In the event that the total assets of any Subsidiary which is not a Domestic Subsidiary or a Guarantor are at any time equal to or greater than Twenty Million and 00/100 Dollars ($20,000,000.00), the Borrower shall provide the Agent and the Banks with prompt written notice of such asset value.
27. Section 6.02 of the Loan Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and in its stead is inserted the following:
6.02 Restrictions on Non-Loan Party Subsidiaries.
No Loan Party shall permit any of its Subsidiaries that are not Loan Parties to enter into or otherwise be bound by any agreement prohibiting or restricting (i) the payment of dividends or distributions to any Loan Party, (ii) the making of loans or advances to any Loan Party, or (iii) the making of investments in any Loan Party; provided, however, that with respect to Subsidiaries of Loan Parties acquired after the date hereof, existing agreements of such Subsidiaries with Persons not an Affiliate of such Subsidiary or any Loan Party that may prohibit or restrict those activities described in (i) through (iii) above shall be permitted hereunder (each such agreement an "Existing Restrictive Agreement"). In addition, the Borrower shall provide written notice to the Agent of any such Existing Restrictive Agreement within thirty (30) days after the acquisition of a Subsidiary which has previously entered into any such Existing Restrictive Agreement.
28. Clause (a) of Section 9.02 of the Loan Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and in its stead is inserted the following:
(a) any increase in the Commitments hereunder (other than pursuant to Section 2.21 hereof),
29. The following is hereby inserted as a new Section 9.20 of the Loan Agreement:
9.20 Judgment Currency.
(a) Currency Conversion Procedures for Judgments. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or under a Revolving Credit Note in any currency (the "Original Currency") into another currency (the "Other Currency"), the parties hereby agree, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures each Bank could purchase the Original Currency with the Other Currency after any premium and costs of exchange on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.
(b) Indemnity in Certain Events.
The obligation of Borrower in respect of any sum due from Borrower to any Bank hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in an Other Currency, whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise, be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by any Bank of any sum adjudged to be so due in such Other Currency, such Bank may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Original Currency with such Other Currency. If the amount of the Original Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Bank in the Original Currency, Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment or payment, to indemnify such Bank against such loss.
30. Schedule 1 to the Loan Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced by Schedule 1 attached hereto.
31. Schedule 3.21 to the Loan Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced by Schedule 3.21 attached hereto.

34. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that each and every document, instrument or agreement which at any time has secured payment of the Borrower's Indebtedness under the Loan Agreement including, but not limited to, (i) the Loan Agreement and (ii) the Guaranty Agreements continue to secure prompt payment when due of the Borrower's Indebtedness under the Loan Agreement.

38. Each reference to the Loan Agreement that is made in the Loan Agreement or any other document executed or to be executed in connection therewith shall hereafter be construed as a reference to the Loan Agreement as amended hereby.
