the Second 2009 Additional Notes Closing Date and the March 2009 Deferred

with the same effect as though such representations and warranties had been made

be true and correct in all material respects only as of such specified date);
provided that Schedule 2.1 to this Third Amendment updates Schedule 8.23 of the
Loan Agreement as of the date hereof.

SECTION
2.2. Use of
Proceeds. (a)
All proceeds from the sale of the 2009 Additional Notes shall be used solely for
the purposes set forth on Schedule 2.2 of this Third Amendment.
(b) All
of the proceeds of the payment of each purchase price for the 2009 Defined

applicable closing date.
(c) No part of the proceeds from the
sale of the 2009 Additional Notes will be used to purchase or carry any Margin
Stock or to extend credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin
Stock. Neither the sale of the 2009 Additional Notes nor the use of the proceeds
thereof will violate or be inconsistent with the provisions of Regulation T, U
or X.
SECTION

Stock (such amount does not include any shares or warrants that may be issued
pursuant to the Binding Letter of Intent or Section 3.6(m) of the Agreement) are
reserved for issuance upon the exercise of outstanding warrants, options and
other convertible or exchangeable securities (other than the 2009 Additional
Notes). Schedule 4.7 to this
Third Amendment sets forth the capitalization of the Company as of such Closing
Date.
(b) Except
as set forth on Schedule 2.4 to this Third Amendment, there are (i) no
outstanding options, warrants, agreements, conversion rights, exchange rights,
preemptive rights or other rights (whether contingent or not) to subscribe for,
purchase or acquire any issued or unissued shares of Capital Stock of the
Company or any Subsidiary, and (ii) no restrictions upon, or Contracts or
understandings of the Company or any Subsidiary, or, to the knowledge of the

accordance with the terms of the Notes, will have been validly issued and will
be fully paid and nonassessable, and the issuance thereof will not have been
subject to any preemptive rights or made in violation of any Applicable
Law.
(d) The
holders of the 2009 Additional Notes will, upon issuance thereof, have the
rights set forth in such Notes (subject to the limitations and qualifications
set forth therein).
SECTION
2.5. Brokers and
Finders. No
agent, broker, Person or firm acting on behalf of the Company or its Affiliates
is, or will be, entitled to any fee, commission or broker’s or finder’s fees
from any of the parties hereto, or from any Person controlling, controlled by,
or under common control with any of the parties hereto, in connection with this
Third Amendment or any of the transactions contemplated hereby.
SECTION
2.6. Financial Statements;
Undisclosed Liabilities.
(a) The
unaudited balance sheet of the Company as of September 30, 2008 and the related
statements of income and cash flows of Holdings for the three-month and
nine-month periods ended as of such dates, copies of which in each case were
furnished or made available to the Purchaser prior to the date hereof, present
fairly in all material respects the consolidated financial condition of the
Company and its subsidiaries at the date of said financial statements and the
consolidated results of operations for the period covered
thereby. All of the foregoing historical financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied except to the extent
provided in the notes to said financial statements and subject, to normal
year-end audit adjustments (all of which are of a recurring nature and none of
which, individually or in the aggregate, would be material) and the absence of
footnotes.
(b) Except
as fully disclosed in the financial statements previously delivered to the
Purchaser, and except for the Indebtedness incurred under the Agreement and the
Loan Agreement, there are as of the date hereof no liabilities or obligations
with respect to the Company or any of its subsidiaries of any nature whatsoever
(whether absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise and whether or not due)
which, either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to
be material to the Company or any of its subsidiaries. Except as set
forth on Schedule
5.07 to the Loan Agreement, as of the date hereof, neither the Company
nor any of its subsidiaries knows of any basis for the assertion against it of
any liability or obligation of any nature whatsoever that is not fully disclosed
in the financial statements previously delivered to the Purchaser or referred to
in the immediately preceding sentence which, either individually or in the
aggregate, could reasonably be expected to be material to the Company or any of
its subsidiaries.
7
(c) After
giving effect to the transaction contemplated hereby, nothing has occurred that
has had, or could reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the
aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.
SECTION
2.7. Private
Offering. Assuming
the accuracy of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 5.2 of
the Agreement, the offer and sale of the 2009 Additional Notes to Purchaser is
exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the
Securities Act. Neither the Company, nor anyone acting on behalf of
it, has offered or sold or will offer or sell any securities, or has taken or
will take any other action (including, without limitation, any offering of any
securities of the Company under circumstances that would require, under the
Securities Act, the integration of such offering with the offering and sale of
the 2009 Additional Notes), which would subject the sale of the 2009 Additional
Notes contemplated hereby to the registration provisions of the Securities
Act.
