NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual covenants, agreements and promises contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
1. | Amendments to Loan Agreement. |
(a) The second sentence of Section III.A.2 of the Loan Agreement shall be, and hereby is, deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following new second sentence:
“The Applicable Margin will be adjusted (up or down) on a quarterly basis as determined by Borrower’s Total Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio. Adjustments in the Applicable Margin will be determined by reference to the following grid:
If Total Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio is: |
Then Applicable Margin is: |
||
Greater than or equal to 1.75 |
2.50 | % | |
Greater than 1.0 but less than 1.75 |
1.80 | % | |
Less than or equal to 1.0 |
1.50 | % |
”
(b) The definition of “EBITDA” in Schedule A of the Loan Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following new definition:
““EBITDA” shall mean an amount equal to (a) consolidated Net Income of the Borrower and Guarantors for the twelve (12) month period ending on the date of determination, plus (b) the sum of (i) income taxes, (ii) Interest Expense, and (iii) the amount of non-cash charges (including depreciation and amortization) for such period, in each case to the extent included in the calculation of consolidated Net Income of Borrower and Guarantors for such period in accordance with GAAP, but without duplication. For purposes of the calculation of consolidated Net Income of Borrower and Guarantors for such period, income, gain, or loss from extraordinary items for such period shall be excluded from the calculation. For the avoidance of doubt, any non-cash charges associated with charging off of goodwill and intangible assets shall be excluded from the calculation of Net Income and EBITDA for the Fiscal Quarters ending December 31, 2008 through September 30, 2009 and the Fiscal Years ending March 30, 2009 and March 30, 2010.”
