RECITALS
WHEREAS, the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
desire to amend the Existing Credit Agreement (a) to extend the Commitment
Termination Date for an additional 364-day period terminating on August 29,
2003, and (b) to evidence, as set forth on Annex II hereto, the Commitment of
each Lender on August 30, 2002, reflecting, in each case on such date, the
termination of the Commitments of certain Lenders, the reallocation of portions
of such terminated Commitments to certain other Lenders, and the decrease in the
aggregate amount of the Commitments to $168,000,000.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the agreements,
provisions and covenants herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:
SECTION 1. AMENDMENTS TO THE EXISTING CREDIT AGREEMENT
1.1 AMENDMENTS TO ARTICLE I: DEFINITIONS AND ACCOUNTING TERMS
Section 1.01 of the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended by
deleting, in the definition of "Commitment Termination Date," the date "August
30, 2002" and substituting in lieu thereof the date "August 29, 2003."
1.2 AMENDMENTS TO ARTICLE II. AMOUNTS AND TERMS OF THE ADVANCES
Article II of the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended by
adding the following subsection 2.19 at the end thereof:
"SECTION 2.19 Increased Commitments; Additional Lenders.
(a) Notwithstanding anything contained in Section 8.01, on any
Business Day subsequent to the Commitment Termination Date, the
Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall
promptly provide a copy of such
2
notice to the Lenders), propose to increase the aggregate amount of
the Commitments (the amount of any such increase, the "Increased
Commitments"); provided that the sum of the Commitments and the
Increased Commitments shall not exceed $200,000,000 in the
aggregate.
(b) The Borrower may designate another lender or other lenders
(which may be, but need not be, one or more of the existing Lenders,
but which shall be an Eligible Assignee), which at the time agree to
(i) in the case of any such lender that is an existing Lender,
increase its Commitment and (ii) in the case of any other such
lender (an "Additional Lender"), become a party to this Agreement.
(c) An increase in the aggregate amount of the Commitments
pursuant to this Section 2.19 shall become effective (the "Increase
Effective Date") upon the receipt by the Administrative Agent of an
agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent signed by the Borrower, by each Additional Lender and by each
other Lender whose Commitment is to be increased, setting forth the
new Commitments of such Lenders and setting forth the agreement of
each Additional Lender to become a party to this Agreement and to be
bound by all the terms and provisions hereof, together with the
certificate referred to in clause (d) below, such evidence of
appropriate corporate authorization on the part of the Borrower with
respect to the Increased Commitments and such opinions of counsel
for the Borrower with respect to the Increased Commitments as the
Administrative Agent may reasonably request.
(d) As a condition precedent to such increase, the Borrower
shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate dated as of
the Increase Effective Date (in sufficient copies for each Lender)
signed by an authorized Officer of Borrower (i) certifying and
attaching the resolutions adopted by Borrower approving or
consenting to such increase, (ii) certifying that, before and after
giving effect to such increase, the representations and warranties
contained in Article IV and the other Loan Documents are true and
correct on and as of the Increase Effective Date, except to the
extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer
to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct as of
such earlier date and (iii) certifying that no event has occurred
and is continuing, or would result from such Increased Commitments,
which constitutes an Event of Default or a Potential Event of
Default. The Borrower shall prepay any Loans outstanding on the
Increase Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts required
pursuant to Section 2.06) to the extent necessary to keep the
outstanding Loans ratable pursuant to each Lender's commitment
arising from any nonratable increase in the Commitments under this
Section."

RE: FIRST AMENDMENT TO CREDIT AGREEMENT (SHORT TERM
REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY) DATED AS OF AUGUST 30, 2002,
AMONG VIAD CORP, THE BANKS NAMED THEREIN AND CITICORP
USA, INC. AS ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
Ladies and Gentlemen:
I am Vice President and General Counsel of Viad Corp, a Delaware
corporation (the "Borrower"), and as such have acted as counsel to the Borrower
in connection with the negotiation, execution and delivery by the Borrower of
the First Amendment to Credit Agreement (Short Term Revolving Credit Facility)
dated as of August 30, 2002 (the "Credit Agreement") among the Borrower, the
financial institutions listed therein as Lenders and Citicorp USA, Inc. as
Administrative Agent. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined
herein shall have the meanings given them in the Amended Agreement (as defined
below).
This opinion is delivered to you pursuant to Section 2C of the
Amendment. I, or attorneys supervised by me, have examined the Amendment and
that certain Credit Agreement (Short Term Revolving Credit Facility) dated as of
August 31, 2001 (as amended by the Amendment, the "Amended Agreement"), by and
among the Company, the lenders listed on the signature pages thereof, and the
Administrative Agent, and I have examined or
Exhhibit 1-1
am familiar with originals or copies, the authenticity of which has been
established to my satisfaction of such other documents, corporate records,
agreements and instruments, and certificates of public officials and of officers
of the Borrower as I have deemed necessary or appropriate to enable me to
express the opinions set forth below. As to questions of fact material to such
opinions, I have, when relevant facts were not independently established, relied
upon certification by officers of the Borrower, which I believe to be reliable.
The opinions hereinafter expressed are subject to the fact that I am
a member of the State Bar of Arizona and do not hold myself out as an expert on
the laws of other states or jurisdictions except (i) the federal law of the
United States of America, (ii) the General Corporation Law of the State of
Delaware, and (iii) the laws of New York relevant to the opinions herein
expressed.
Based upon the foregoing and having regard to legal considerations
which I have deemed relevant, it is my opinion that:
1. The Borrower is a corporation validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and is duly qualified to do
business as a foreign corporation in good standing in all other jurisdictions
which require such qualification, except to the extent that failure to so
qualify would not have a material adverse effect on the Borrower. The Borrower
has all requisite corporate power and authority to own and operate its
properties, to conduct its business as presently conducted, and to execute,
deliver and perform its obligations under the Amendment and the Amended
Agreement.
2. The Amendment has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate
action on the part of the Borrower and has been duly executed and delivered by
the Borrower. Each of the Amendment and the Amended Agreement constitutes the
legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable against the
Borrower in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be
limited by bankruptcy, insolvency and reorganization laws and other similar laws
governing the enforcement of lessors' or creditors' rights and by the effects of
specific performance, injunctive relief and other equitable remedies.
3. Neither the execution and delivery by the Borrower of the
Amendment and the Amended Agreement, nor consummation of the transactions
contemplated thereby, nor compliance on or prior to the date hereof with the
terms and conditions thereof by the Borrower conflicts with or is a violation
of, its certificate of incorporation or bylaws, each as in effect on the date
hereof. Neither the execution and delivery by the Borrower of the Amendment and
the Amended Agreement, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated
thereby, nor compliance on or prior to the date hereof with the terms and
conditions thereof by the Borrower will result in a violation of any applicable
federal or New York law, governmental rule or regulation or of the Corporation
Law of the State of Delaware or conflicts with, will result in a breach of, or
constitutes a default under, any provision of any indenture, agreement or other
instrument to which the Borrower is a party or any of its properties may be
bound ("Material Agreements"), or any order, judgment or decree to which the
Borrower or any of its assets are bound ("Judicial Orders"), or will result in
the creation or imposition of any lien upon any property or assets of the
Borrower pursuant to any Material Agreement or Judicial Order.
Exhhibit 1-2
4. No consent, approval or authorization of, and no registration,
declaration or filing with, any administrative, governmental or other public
authority of the United States of America or the State of New York or under the
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware is required by law to be obtained or
made by the Borrower for the execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower
of the Amendment or the Amended Agreement, except such filings as may be
required in the ordinary course to keep in full force and effect rights and
franchises material to the business of the Borrower and in connection with the
payment of taxes.
This opinion is delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Banks
as of the date hereof in connection with the Amendment, and may not be relied
upon by any person other than the Administrative Agent and the Banks and their
permitted assignees, or by them in any other context, and may not be furnished
to any other person or entity without my prior written consent, provided that
each Bank and its permitted assignees may provide this opinion (i) to bank
examiners and other regulatory authorities should they so request or in
connection with their normal examination, (ii) to the independent auditors and
attorneys of such Bank, (iii) pursuant to order or legal process of any court or
governmental agency, (iv) in connection with any legal action to which the Bank
is a party arising out of the transactions contemplated by the Amendment and the
Credit Agreement, or (v) in connection with the assignment of or sale of
participations in the Advances.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Xxxxx X. Xxxxx
