EXHIBIT 10.74
FOURTH AMENDMENT AND WAIVER
THIS FOURTH AMENDMENT AND WAIVER (this "Amendment") is entered into as of
the 6th day of April, 1999, by and among the banks listed on the signature
pages hereof (the "Lenders"), KEVCO, INC., a Texas corporation (the
"Borrower"), and NATIONSBANK, N.A. (successor by merger to NationsBank of
Texas, N.A.), as Administrative Agent for the Lenders (the "Administrative
Agent"), to the extent and in the manner provided for in the Credit Agreement
(defined below and herein so called).
BACKGROUND
(a) The Lenders, the Borrower, and the Administrative
Agent are parties to that certain Second Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement dated as of December 1, 1997
(as amended through the date hereof and as further
amended, extended, renewed, or restated from time to
time, the "Credit Agreement"; terms defined in the
Credit Agreement and not otherwise defined herein
shall be used herein as defined in the Credit
Agreement).
(b) The Determining Lenders, the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent entered into a Waiver, dated
December 30, 1998 (the "First Waiver"), waiving any
Event of Default with respect to Sections 7.10 and
7.11 of the Credit Agreement which may have occurred
as a result of the failure of the Borrower to comply
with said Sections for the fiscal quarter ending
December 31, 1998 (the "Existing Events of Default").
(c) The Determining Lenders, the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent entered into a Second Waiver,
dated February 15, 1999 (the "Second Waiver"),
extending the termination of the First Waiver from
February 15, 1999, to February 25, 1999.
(d) Lenders, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
entered into a Third Amendment and Waiver, dated
February 25, 1999 (the "Third Amendment and Waiver"),
extending the termination of the Second Waiver from
February 25, 1999, to March 31, 1999, which has
subsequently been extended to April 15, 1999.
(e) The waiver granted in the Third Amendment and
Waiver will expire on April 15, 1999, whereupon the
Lenders will have the option to exercise all rights
and remedies that they have under the Credit Agreement
with respect to the
2
Existing Events of Default, including but not limited
to, refusing to make any additional Advances under the
Credit Agreement.
(f) The Borrower has requested a waiver with respect
to the Existing Events of Default and Defaults arising
under Sections 6.2 and 6.3 of the Credit Agreement
because of the Borrower's failure within the 90-day
period set forth to deliver the information required
with respect to its 1998 fiscal year (the "Additional
Defaults"), thereby allowing the Borrower to obtain
additional Advances under the Credit Agreement which
would not otherwise be permitted under the terms of
the Credit Agreement and the Third Amendment and
Waiver.
(g) As an accommodation to the Borrower in order to
permit the Borrower to obtain additional Advances
under the Credit Agreement, the Lenders, conditioned
upon the Borrower's compliance with the terms and
conditions set forth herein, hereby agree to such
waiver with respect to the Existing Events of Default
as provided herein.
(h) Additionally, the Borrower, Administrative Agent,
and the Lenders desire to amend the Credit Agreement
to provide for, among other things, (i) an extension
of the Liquidity Commitment Maturity Date, and (ii)
changes to certain other provisions contained in the
Credit Agreement.

agreements hereafter set forth, and for other good and valuable consideration,
the receipt and adequacy of which are all hereby acknowledged, the parties
hereto covenant and agree as follows:

effectiveness set forth in Section 9 of this Amendment and the other
conditions contained herein, the Lenders hereby waive the Existing Events
