Dear Xx. Xxxxxx:
The purpose of this letter is to confirm our agreement to amend the
above-referenced Credit Agreement to permit the voluntary repayment of Loans
upon one (1) Business Day's notice rather than five (5) Business Days' notice as
currently provided. Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings
specified in the Credit Agreement. The amendment shall be as set forth below:
Effective as of August 8, 1996, the Credit Agreement is hereby
amended by deleting the reference to "five (5) Business Days" in the
fourth line of Section 2.5(a) and substituting in its place a reference
to "one (1) Business Day."
Please indicate your agreement to the foregoing by signing and returning to me
the enclosed duplicate copy of this letter agreement. Upon signature by HCIA
Inc., this letter agreement shall constitute an amendment to the Credit
Agreement. The Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, shall remain in full force
and effect.
Sincerely,
