Re: | Revolving Credit Agreement dated as of December 22, 2009, as previously amended (“Agreement”) by and among the financial institutions signatory thereto (individually a “Lender,” and any and all such financial institutions collectively the “Lenders”), Comerica Bank, as Administrative Agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, the “Agent”), Arranger, Syndication Agent and Documentation Agent, and Software Brokers of America, Inc. (“Borrower”). |
Gentlemen:
Borrower has informed Agent and Comerica Bank, the sole Lender under the Agreement, that it failed to comply with the provisions of Section 7.9(a) of the Agreement as of December 31, 2010, failed to comply with the provisions of Section 7.9(b) of the Agreement as of December 31, 2010 and failed to comply with the provisions of Section 7.9(c) of the Agreement as of December 31, 2010 (“12/31/10 Covenant Violations”) giving rise to Events of Default under Section 9.1(c) of the Agreement. Comerica Bank, being the sole Lender under the Agreement, waives the any Events of Default that exist under the Agreement as a result of the 12/31/10 Covenant Violations.
In connection with its recent consideration of the Borrower’s request for a waiver of the 12/31/10 Covenant Violations, it has come to Comerica Bank’s attention that Borrower may have failed to comply with the provisions of Section 7.9(b) of the Agreement as of June 30, 2010 (“6/30/10 Potential Covenant Violation”). The 6/30/10 Potential Covenant Violation may be as a result of an inadvertent mis-interpretation or mis-calculation of the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio by Borrower and Comerica Bank. To the extent that the 6/30/10 Potential Covenant Violation may give rise to an Event of Default under the Agreement, Comerica Bank, waives any Events of Default that may exist under the Agreement as a result of the 6/30/10 Potential Covenant Violation.
The above waivers shall not be deemed to amend or alter in any respect the terms and conditions of the Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or to constitute a waiver or release by any of the Lenders of any right, remedy or Event of Default under the Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except to the extent expressly set forth above, Furthermore, the above waivers shall not affect in any manner whatsoever any rights or remedies of any of the Lenders with respect to any other non-compliance by the Borrower with the Agreement or the other Loan Documents whether in the nature of an Event of Default or otherwise, and whether now in existence or subsequently arising.
Except as specifically defined to the contrary herein, capitalized terms used in this letter shall have the meanings given them in the Agreement.
Very truly yours | ||
