Unless otherwise defined herein, terms used in this Agreement that are defined in the Credit Agreement or the Libbey Guaranty shall have the same meanings herein as in the Credit Agreement or the Libbey Guaranty, as applicable.

     WHEREAS, pursuant to the Libbey Guaranty, the Guarantors have guaranteed certain of the Obligations of Vitrocrisa and/or Comercial to each of the Tranche B Lenders and the Administrative Agent; and

     WHEREAS, the Guarantors have requested a waiver by the Tranche B Lenders and the Administrative Agent of the requirements of Section 4.4(b) of the Libbey Guaranty; and

     WHEREAS, the parties hereto are willing to provide such waiver as specifically set forth herein.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

     1. Waiver. Upon satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3 below, each of the parties hereto waives any Event of Default and any rights to take action, in each case, arising from the failure of the Guarantors to maintain a Consolidated Leverage Ratio (as defined in Note Purchase Guaranty Agreement) of less than or equal to 3.75 to 1.0 at any time from September 30, 2005 through (but not including) December 31, 2005; provided that the Consolidated Leverage Ratio (as defined in Note Purchase Guaranty Agreement) of the Guarantors shall not exceed 4.25 to 1.0 as of September 30, 2005.

     2. Limited Waiver. Except as set forth in Section 1 above, the execution of this Agreement and acceptance of any other documents related hereto shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any Event of Default under the Credit Agreement, any Guarantor Event of Default under the Libbey Guaranty or any breach, default or event of default under any other Transaction Document, whether or not known to the Administrative Agent, any Collateral Agent or any Lender and whether or not existing on the date of this Agreement.

     3. Conditions Precedent. This Agreement shall be effective upon satisfaction of the following conditions precedent:

     (a) the Administrative Agent shall have received this Agreement, duly executed by the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders; and

     (b) the Guarantors shall have paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Tranche B Lender that has delivered (by facsimile or otherwise) an executed counterpart of this Agreement to the Administrative Agent on or prior to noon (Eastern time) on September 29, 2005, a non-refundable fee in an amount equal to 5 basis points (0.05%) of the Tranche B Loans of such Tranche B Lender as of the date hereof.

     4. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and be governed by the law of the State of New York without giving effect to the principles thereof relating to conflicts of law (except Section 5-1401 of the New York General Obligations Law).

     5. Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

     6. Captions and Headings. The captions or section headings at various places in this Agreement are intended for convenience only and do not constitute and shall not be interpreted as part of this Agreement.

     7. Counterparts; Telecopied Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in any number of separate counterparts, each of which shall collectively and separately constitute one and the same agreement. This Agreement may be authenticated by manual signature, facsimile or, if approved in writing by the Administrative Agent, electronic means, all of which shall be equally valid. A facsimile copy of any such executed counterpart shall be deemed valid as an original.

     8. No Other Changes. Except as explicitly set forth herein, all of the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement and the Libbey Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect.
