NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the agreements and provisions

SECTION 2. AMENDMENTS TO CREDIT AGREEMENT. The Credit Agreement is hereby
amended, effective as of the date this Fourth Amendment becomes effective in
accordance with Section 4 hereof, as follows:
2.01 AMENDMENT TO SECTION 3.1(C) OF THE CREDIT AGREEMENT. Section
3.1(c) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting it in its entirety
and inserting the following in lieu thereof:
"(c) Mandatory Prepayments; Additional Term Loan. (i) The
proceeds received in connection with the Tabletop Asset Sale (as
defined in the Tabletop Sale Waiver) and held by Agent (in accordance
with Section 5.03 of the Tabletop Sale Waiver) shall be applied by
Agent to prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan in an
amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds received in connection
therewith. Upon consummation of the AMAP Sale (as defined in the AMAP
Sale Waiver), Borrowers shall prepay the outstanding principal amount
of the Term Loan in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds
received in connection therewith.
(ii) At any time during the seven (7) Business Day period
immediately following the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, Borrowers
shall request one or more additional term loans (collectively, the
"Additional Term Loan"). In no event shall Borrowers make more than
three (3) such Borrowing requests and, after all such Borrowings, the
sum of the outstanding principal amount of the Additional Term Loan
plus the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan shall equal
$100,000,000. Each Borrowing of an Additional Term Loan shall be made
upon the Administrative Borrower's written notice delivered, on behalf
of the Borrowers, to the Agent, of a Notice of Borrowing, which must be
received by the Agent prior to (A) 11:00 a.m. (New York, New York time)
three (3) Business Days prior to the requested Funding Date, in the
case of LIBOR Rate Loans and (B) 11:00 a.m. (New York, New York time)
on the requested Funding Date, in the case of Base Rate Loans,
specifying: (I) the amount of the Borrowing, which in the case of a
LIBOR Rate Loan must equal or exceed $5,000,000 and increments of
$1,000,000 in excess of such amount (unless waived by Agent and
Co-Agent in writing (including by facsimile or electronic mail)); (II)
the requested Funding Date, which must be a Business Day; (III) whether
the Additional Term Loans requested are to be Base Rate Loans or LIBOR
Rate Loans (and if not specified, it shall be deemed a request for a
Base Rate Loan); and (IV) the duration of the Interest Period for LIBOR
Rate Loans (and if not specified, it shall be deemed a request for an
Interest Period of one month). The Additional Term Loan shall be
governed by the provisions governing the Term Loan for all purposes
hereunder, and all references to "Term Loan" in the Credit Agreement
and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to include the Additional
Term Loan.
(iii) With respect to the proceeds of the Additional Term Loan
borrowed after using the proceeds of the AMAP Sale to pay down the Term
Loan pursuant to clause (i) above, (a) the first $24,919,414.62 of such
proceeds shall be used solely to pay the
2
outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans (on a ratable
basis); provided, that (I) concurrently with such application to the
outstanding Revolving Loans, Agent and Co-Agent shall establish and
maintain a corresponding reserve against the Maximum Amount and the
Borrowing Base in an amount equal to the amount of such prepayment of
Revolving Loans, and (II) such reserve against the Maximum Amount and
the Borrowing Base shall be released only at the sole discretion of the
Agent and the Co-Agent, (b) the next $50,000,000 of such proceeds of
the Additional Term Loan shall be funded into an interest-bearing cash
collateral account in the name of the Administrative Borrower (the
"Cash Collateral Account") that will be subject to a Blocked Account
Agreement with a depository bank (the "Blocked Account Bank")
satisfactory in form and substance to Agent and Co-Agent, and if
Administrative Borrower delivers a written request to Agent and
Co-Agent to have funds released from the Cash Collateral Account to
either (I) effect a purchase, prepayment or redemption of all or a
portion of the outstanding principal amount of the 2005 Senior Notes (a
"Notes Prepayment") or (II) prepay outstanding Revolving Loans, then
upon the receipt by Agent and Co-Agent of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to Agent and Co-Agent demonstrating that the funds
requested to be released from the Cash Collateral Account shall be used
solely to effect a Notes Prepayment or a prepayment of outstanding
Revolving Loans, as applicable (including, without limitation, a
certificate signed by the Administrative Borrower to such effect),
Agent shall direct the Blocked Account Bank to release such funds to
the Administrative Borrower; provided, that (I) Administrative Borrower
shall provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Co-Agent and the
Agent of the use of such proceeds promptly (and in any event within 2
Business Days) after each such use and failure to do so shall
constitute an Event of Default (without giving effect to any grace
period) (it being understood and agreed that, in the case of an
optional redemption or payment on the maturity date of the 2005 Senior
Notes, such requirement may be satisfied by written acknowledgement
from the Trustee under the Indenture governing the 2005 Senior Notes
that such Trustee has received such funds from Borrowers necessary to
effect such optional redemption or payment at maturity as required by
the terms of the Indenture governing the 2005 Senior Notes); (II)
interest earned on funds deposited in the Cash Collateral Account shall
inure to the benefit of Borrowers; (III) upon the Administrative
Borrower providing evidence reasonably satisfactory to Agent and
Co-Agent that Borrowers have issued additional Second Lien Term Loan or
equity in exchange for 2005 Senior Notes (which prepayment of the 2005
Senior Notes is hereby permitted to the extent that Borrowers are
otherwise permitted to issue the additional Second Lien Term Loan or
equity under the Loan Documents), then Agent shall direct the Blocked
Account Bank to release to the Administrative Borrower funds in the
Cash Collateral Account in an amount equal to the reduction of the
principal amount of the 2005 Senior Notes effected by such exchange;
(IV) Agent shall direct the Blocked Account Bank to release any
remaining funds in the Cash Collateral Account, including interest
earned thereon, to the Administrative Borrower at such time that all of
the outstanding principal amount of the 2005 Senior Notes shall have
been paid; (V) notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the
contrary contained herein, a Notes Prepayment may not effected if a
Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would
result therefrom; and (VI) if the Administrative Borrower requests to
have funds released from the Cash Collateral Account to make a
prepayment of
3
outstanding Revolving Loans, then (x) concurrently with such
application to the outstanding Revolving Loans, Agent and Co-Agent
shall establish and maintain a corresponding reserve against the
Maximum Amount and the Borrowing Base in an amount equal to the amount
of such prepayment of Revolving Loans, and (y) if Administrative
Borrower subsequently delivers a Notice of Borrowing which indicates
that Borrowers intend to use all of the proceeds of such Borrowing to
effect a Notes Prepayment, then, upon receipt by Agent and Co-Agent of
evidence reasonably satisfactory to Agent and Co-Agent demonstrating
that the funds requested for Borrowing shall be used solely to effect a
Notes Prepayment, such reserve against the Maximum Amount and the
Borrowing Base shall be released by Agent and Co-Agent in an amount
equal to the reduction of the principal amount of the 2005 Senior Notes
that will be effected by such Notes Prepayment, and Administrative
Borrower shall provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Co-Agent
and the Agent of the use of such proceeds promptly (and in any event
within 2 Business Days) after each such use and failure to do so shall
constitute an Event of Default (without giving effect to any grace
period) (it being understood and agreed that, in the case of an
optional redemption or payment on the maturity date of the 2005 Senior
Notes, such requirement may be satisfied by written acknowledgement
from the Trustee under the Indenture governing the 2005 Senior Notes
that such Trustee has received such funds from Borrowers necessary to
effect such optional redemption or payment at maturity as required by
the terms of the Indenture governing the 2005 Senior Notes); and (c)
any additional proceeds of the Additional Term Loan may be used by the
Borrowers for any purpose to the extent not prohibited by or
inconsistent with the Credit Agreement.
(iv) If the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the
Loans exceeds the result of the sum of clauses (a)(A), (a)(B) and
(a)(C) of the definition of Borrowing Base on March 31, 2006, then, on
such date, the Borrowers shall prepay the outstanding principal amount
of the Revolving Loans (on a ratable basis) in an amount equal to such
excess; provided, that (A) concurrently with each such application to
the outstanding Revolving Loans, Agent and Co-Agent shall establish and
maintain a corresponding reserve against the Maximum Amount and the
Borrowing Base in an amount equal to the amount of such prepayment, and
(B) such reserve against the Maximum Amount and the Borrowing Base
shall be released only at the sole discretion of the Agent and the
Co-Agent.
(v) The provisions of this Section 3.1(c) shall not be deemed
to be implied consent to any issuance, incurrence, sale or other
disposition otherwise prohibited by the terms and conditions of this
Agreement."
