Re: Overadvance
Side Letter
Ladies
and Gentleman:
Reference
is hereby made to that certain Security Agreement dated as of the date hereof
by
and among CONVERSION
SERVICES INTERNATIONAL, INC.,
a
Delaware corporation (“CSII”),
such
other subsidiaries of CSII named in that certain Security Agreement or which
hereafter become a party thereto (collectively, the “Eligible
Subsidiaries”
and,
together with CSII, the “Companies”
and,
each a “Company”)
and
Laurus Master Fund, Ltd. (“Laurus”)
(as
amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “Security
Agreement”).
Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed
them in the Security Agreement.
Xxxxxx
is
hereby notifying you of its decision to exercise the discretion granted to
it
pursuant to Section 2(a)(ii) of the Security Agreement to make a Loan (the
“Overadvance”)
to the
Company in excess of the Formula Amount in effect on the date hereof in an
aggregate principal amount equal to $3,101,084 (the “Initial
Overadvance Amount”).
In
connection with making the Overadvance, during the period commencing on the
date
hereof through an including December 31, 2007 (the “Period”),
Laurus hereby waives compliance with Section 3 of the Security Agreement, but
solely as such provision relates to the immediate repayment requirement for
Overadvances; provided however,
that
the Company shall at all times be required to repay to Laurus all amounts in
excess of the then applicable Overadvance Amount (as defined below) immediately
upon the occurrence of such excess. Xxxxxx further agrees that solely for such
Period (but not thereafter), to the extent that the Company has not breached
any
of its obligations hereunder, (i) the Overadvance shall not trigger an Event
of
Default under Section 19(a) of the Security Agreement and (ii) notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth in Section 5(b)(iii)
of the Security Agreement, during the Period the
Overadvance rate of interest applicable to such Overadvance shall be the
Contract Rate of interest otherwise applicable to Loans as determined pursuant
to Section 1 of the Secured Non-Convertible Revolving Note from time to time.
Interest shall be (i) calculated on the basis of a 360 day year, and (ii)
payable monthly, in arrears, commencing on February 1, 2006 on the first
business day of each consecutive calendar month thereafter through and including
the December 31, 2007, whether by acceleration or otherwise. All other terms
and
provisions
of the
Security Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements shall remain in full force
and
effect.
During
the Period commencing on February 2, 2007 (the “First
Overadvance Reduction Date”)
and
continuing through December 31, 2007 (the “Overadvance
Reduction Period”),
on
the first business day of each month falling within the Overadvance Reduction
Period (each, an Overadvance
Reduction Date”),
commencing on First Overadvance Reduction Date, the Overadvances otherwise
permitted hereunder shall be reduced to such aggregate principal amount as
is
set forth on Annex
A
opposite
such Overadvance Reduction Date (each, a “Reduced
Overadvance Amount”
and,
together with the Initial Overadvance Amount (as shall be in effect on the
date
hereof until giving effect to the First Overadvance Reduction Date), each an
“Overadvance
Amount”),
and
the Company shall pay to Laurus on each such Overadvance Reduction Date all
amounts outstanding and in excess of the then applicable Reduced Overadvance
Amount. During the Period, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and
is
continuing, the Company shall be permitted to request borrowings of Loans in
excess of the Formula Amount to the extent that the aggregate principal amount
of such Loans, when added to the aggregate principal amount of all other Loans,
fees and accrued interest then outstanding and in excess of the Formula Amount,
shall not exceed the Reduced Overadvance Amount applicable as of the date of
such proposed borrowing. The foregoing payment obligations of the Company shall
be in addition to, and not in substitution of, all other payment obligations
of
the Company to Laurus as may be required under the terms of the Security
Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements referred to therein. For the avoidance
of
doubt, all proceeds applied by the Company in repayment of its obligations
to
Laurus hereunder and under the Security Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements
shall be first applied as a repayment of the Overadvances unless otherwise
agreed by Xxxxxx.
This
letter may not be amended or waived except by an instrument in writing signed
by
each Company and Laurus. This letter may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which, when taken
together, shall constitute one agreement. Delivery of an executed signature
page
of this letter by facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery of
a
manually executed counterpart hereof or thereof, as the case may be. This letter
shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State
of
New York. This letter sets forth the entire agreement between the parties hereto
as to the matters set forth herein and supersede all prior communications,
written or oral, with respect to the matters herein.
If
the
foregoing meets with your approval please signify your acceptance of the terms
hereof by signing below.
