WHEREAS, under the Loan Agreement, it is a condition to the making of
the Loan by the Lender that the terms of the Bridge Notes shall be modified in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual
covenants and agreements set forth herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Defined Terms. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms
used herein shall have the respective meanings assigned to them in the Loan
Agreement.
2. Payment Terms. From and after the date hereof, the principal of the
Bridge Notes shall be due and payable on January 30, 2003, unless payment
thereof is accelerated in accordance with the terms of the Bridge Notes. The
Corporation shall pay to the holder of the Bridge Notes, on a monthly basis on
the last Business Day of each month, in arrears, interest on the outstanding
principal amount of the Bridge Notes, at the Base Rate plus 100 basis points.
The Corporation may prepay any or all amounts outstanding under the Bridge Notes
at any time without premium or penalty, plus interest owing to the date of
payment on any amount so prepaid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the
occurrence of any of the events of default under the Bridge Notes (which, from
and after the date hereof, shall be the same as the Events of Default under the
Note), the Corporation shall pay on demand interest on any overdue portion of
principal (including any overdue prepayment of principal) and (to the extent
permitted by applicable law) on any overdue installment of interest, at a rate
per annum equal to the Base Rate plus 400 basis points, provided, however, any
amounts paid hereunder in excess of the highest rate permitted under applicable
law shall be applied to principal and not to interest. Amounts paid to the
Lender shall be applied first to amounts owing under the Note, and after payment
of all amounts owing under the Note, all future payments shall be applied pari
passu and pro rata to the Bridge Notes and the 1999 Note (as defined in the Loan
Agreement). The Corporation acknowledges that the mandatory prepayment provision
set forth in Section 1.5 of the Loan Agreement shall continue to apply to the
Bridge Notes and the 1999 Note and shall be deemed incorporated by reference
herein notwithstanding any payment in full of the Note or other termination of
the Loan Agreement.
3. Entire Notes. From and after the date of this Agreement, the Bridge
Notes shall be deemed modified and amended hereby effective as of the date
hereof and, as modified and amended hereby, shall continue in full force and
effect, it being the intention of both the Loan Agreement and this Agreement to
modify the material operative terms of the Bridge Notes to conform them to the
terms, including, without limitation, the repayment terms, of the Note. Each
Bridge Note, as amended hereby, shall be read taken and construed as one and the
same instrument.
3
4. No Effect of Amendment on Collateral. Notwithstanding anything in
the Loan Agreement or this Agreement to the contrary, it is understood and
agreed that no provision in this Agreement, the Bridge Notes, the Loan Agreement
or the Security Documents is intended to change the rights of (including,
without limitation, the priority of any lien or security interest which may be
held by) the holder of a Bridge Note with respect to any collateral which may
secure the Corporation's obligations thereunder.
5. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, which when taken together shall constitute one and the same
instrument.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have executed and delivered this
Agreement as of the date first set forth above.
