WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, the Borrower, the Guarantors, the Lenders and the Agent are
parties to that certain Amended and Restated Revolving Credit, Term Loan and
Guaranty Agreement, dated as of January 23, 2007 (as the same may be waived,
amended, restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, the "Credit
Agreement"); and
WHEREAS, the Borrower and the Guarantors have requested that, subject to
the occurrence of the Effective Date (as hereinafter defined) of this Amendment,
the Agent and the Lenders agree to an amendment of Section 5.01(a) of the Credit
Agreement so as to permit the delivery of the financial statements referred to
therein on or before June 29, 2007 rather than on or before March 31,2007.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
1. As used herein, all terms that are defined in the Credit Agreement
(in effect immediately prior to the Effective Date of this Amendment) shall have
the same meanings herein.
2. Section 5.01(a) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by
inserting the following parenthetical clause immediately after the words "end of
each fiscal year" appearing in the first line thereof:
"(or, in the case of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, on or
before June 29, 2007)"
3. This Amendment and the amendment of the Credit Agreement set forth
herein shall become effective on the date (the "Effective Date") on which this
Amendment shall have been executed by the Borrower, the Guarantors and the
Required Lenders, and the Agent shall have received evidence reasonably
satisfactory to it of such execution.
4. Except to the extent hereby waived and amended, the Credit
Agreement and each of the Loan Documents remain in full force and effect and are
hereby ratified and affirmed.
5. The Borrower agrees that its obligations set forth in Section 10.05
of the Credit Agreement shall extend to the preparation, execution and delivery
of this Amendment, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to
the Agent.
6. This Amendment shall be limited precisely as written and shall not
be deemed (a) to be a consent granted pursuant to, or a waiver or modification
of, any other term or condition of the Credit Agreement or any of the
instruments or agreements referred to therein or (b) to prejudice any right or
rights which the Agent or the Lenders may now have or have in the future under
or in connection with the Credit Agreement or any of the instruments or
agreements referred to therein. Whenever the Credit Agreement is referred to in
the Credit Agreement or any of the instruments, agreements or other documents or
papers executed or delivered in connection therewith, such reference shall be
deemed to mean the Credit Agreement as modified by this Amendment.
7. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by
the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which shall be an
original and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one and the
same instrument. A facsimile or .pdf copy of a counterpart signature page shall
serve as the functional equivalent of a manually executed copy for all purposes.
8. This Amendment shall be governed by, and construed in accordance
with, the laws of the State of New York.
