1.25 Section 7.20 is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:
SECTION 7.20. TRANSITION RULES. In calculating compliance with
Section 7.15 and 7.16, Consolidated Capital Expenditures for any
period shall be calculated as (a) for periods through December 31,

Consolidated Capital Expenditures for such period; and (b) for the
periods from and after January 1, 2001, actual Consolidated Capital
Expenditures for each month. In calculating compliance with Section
7.16, for all periods ending prior to July 1, 2001 the sum (the
"SUM") of Consolidated EBITDA less Consolidated Capital Expenditures
shall be calculated by multiplying the sum by twelve and dividing
the resulting figure by the number of calendar
12
months elapsed since July 1, 2000:
1.26 Article VII is hereby amended by adding the following new Sections
7.22 and 7.23 to the end thereof:
SECTION 7.22. RESTRICTIVE AGREEMENTS. The Holding Company and
the Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries
to, enter into any agreement (excluding this Agreement, the Note
Purchase Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement and any other
Financing Document) prohibiting the ability of any Subsidiary to
make any payment, directly or indirectly, to the Holding Company by
way of dividends, advances, repayments of loans or advances,
reimbursements of management and other intercompany charges,
expenses and accruals or other returns on investments, or any other
agreement or arrangement which restricts the ability of any such
Subsidiary to make any payment, directly or indirectly, to the
Holding Company; provided, however, that the Note Purchase Agreement
(and related documents) may not prohibit dividends and distributions
from any Subsidiary to the Company to enable the Company to make
payments to the Agent or any Lender required by the Financing
Documents.
SECTION 7.23. EQUITY SECURITIES ISSUANCES TO EMPLOYEES AND
MANAGEMENT. The Holding Company shall not issue shares of Common
Stock, Preferred Stock, options, warrants or any other equity
securities to any employee or member of management of any Credit
Party for a purchase or exercise price less than fair market value
as determined by independent members of the Holding Company's board
of directors.
1.27 Section 8.01(k) is hereby amended by deleting therein the phrase
", except for any Joint Venture acquired in accordance with Section 7.07,".
1.28 Section 8.01 is hereby amended by (i) deleting "or" from the end of
subsection (o), (ii) deleting the period from the end of subsection (p) and
adding a semicolon in its place, and (iii) adding to the end of Section 8.01 new
subsections "(q)" and "(r)" as follows:
(q) The Agent shall receive an Enforcement Notice (as
defined in the Intercreditor Agreement); or
(r) An event of default shall occur under the terms of the Note
Purchase Agreement or any Note Document (as defined in the Note
Purchase Agreement).
1.29 Section 11.06 is hereby amended to add to the end thereof, the
following new subsection "(i)":
(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section
11.06, no Lender shall assign any portion of its Note except to
either (i) a Person who is a
13
Lender Affiliate or Affiliated Investor; or (ii) a Person who will,
immediately after giving effect to the assignment, hold Notes with
an aggregate principal amount (including the undrawn portion of any
Revolving Credit Commitment) of at least Two Million Five Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($2,500,000). If the transfer is made to a Lender
Affiliate or an Affiliated Investor and, after the assignment, such
assignee shall fail, for any reason, to remain a Lender Affiliate or
Affiliated Investor of a Person then a Lender, then, unless the
assignee then holds at least $2,500,000 in aggregate principal
amount (including the undrawn portion of any Revolving Credit
Commitment) of the Loans, either (a) the assignee shall sell the
assigned Notes back to the assigning Lender for the then outstanding
principal balance of thereof, together with any accrued but unpaid
interest thereon or (b) the other Lenders shall transfer a
sufficient amount of their Notes and their interests in the
Financing Documents to such assignee so that the assignee holds at
least $2,500,000 in aggregate principal amount (including the
undrawn portion of any Revolving Credit Commitment) of the Loans.
1.30 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Credit Agreement:
(i) no further Acquisition Loans shall be made available to the Company; (ii)
the Acquisition Loan Availability shall be deemed to be "zero" from and after
the date of this Amendment (but such reduction shall not obligate the Company to
make a mandatory prepayment of the Acquisition Loans under Section 3.05(b)(2) of
the Credit Agreement); (iii) all of the outstanding Acquisition Loans are hereby
deemed to be converted to Term Loans (regardless of whether the aggregate of the
existing Term Loans and Acquisition Loans may exceed the Term Loan Commitment
recited in the Credit Agreement) and as Term Loans shall be due and payable in
accordance with the provisions set forth in the Credit Agreement with respect to
Term Loans; (iv) after giving effect to the conversion of the Acquisition Loans
to Term Loans as set forth herein, the outstanding principal balance of the
Acquisition Loans shall not be taken into account in determining Working Capital
Availability; (v) the definition of "Amortization Commencement Date" in Section
1.01 of the Credit Agreement and the entire Section 3.05(c) of the Credit
Agreement are each hereby deleted; and (vi) the promissory notes issued with
respect to the Acquisition Loans shall continue to evidence the sums due to the
Lenders under the Acquisition Loans as converted to Term Loans.
1.31 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Credit Agreement,
wherever in the Credit Agreement it is recited that (i) Liens have been (or are
to be) granted to the Agent to secure the Obligations, it shall be deemed
instead to require that such Liens be granted to the Collateral Agent, for the
benefit of the Lenders and the Subordinated Creditors, pursuant to the
provisions of the Security Documents subject to the Intercreditor Agreement
(provided, however, that any Liens granted to the Agent in the Key-Person Life
Insurance Policy shall continue to be held by the Agent solely for the benefit
of the Lenders); and (ii) any action is to be taken or any decision is to be
made by the Agent with respect to the Collateral, such action or decision shall
instead be taken by the Collateral Agent consistent with the provisions of the
Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents (provided, however, that any
action or decisions regarding the Key-Person Life Insurance Policy shall
continue to be taken by the Agent solely for the benefit of the Lenders).
