SECTION 2. RATIFICATION OF EXISTING AGREEMENTS. The Borrowers and the
Guarantors agree that the Obligations of the Borrowers and the Guarantors to the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders as evidenced by or otherwise arising under
the Credit Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents, except as
otherwise expressly modified in this Amendment upon the terms set forth herein,
are, by the Borrowers' and Guarantors' execution of this Amendment, ratified and
confirmed in all respects. In addition, by the execution of this Amendment, the
Borrowers and Guarantors represent and warrant that no counterclaim, right of
set-off or defense of any kind exists or is outstanding with respect to such
Obligations.
SECTION 3. FORBEARANCE AGREEMENT. Subject to the terms and conditions
set forth herein, the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders agrees to
forbear from (a) exercising their rights and remedies under the Credit Agreement
and the other Loan Documents to collect the indebtedness of the Borrowers to the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders under the Credit Agreement and the other
Loan Documents and (b) ceasing to make Revolving Credit Loans or International
Facility Loans or to issue, extend or renew Letters of Credit until that date
(the "Forbearance Termination Date") which is the earliest to occur of (i) the
failure after the date hereof of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries to comply
with any of the terms or conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement and/or the
other Loan Documents (as modified by this Amendment), other than the failure to
comply with the provisions of Sections 11.1 - 11.4 of the Credit Agreement for
3
-3-
the period commencing on January 1, 2001 and ending on January 31, 2001, (ii)
the occurrence after the date hereof of any Default or Event of Default, other
than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the failure to comply with the
provisions of Sections 11.1 - 11.4 of the Credit Agreement for the period
commencing on January 1, 2001 and ending on January 31, 2001, (iii) the failure
of the Borrowers or their Subsidiaries to comply with any term set forth in this
Amendment, (iv) the date on which the Administrative Agent determines that a
material adverse change in the business, assets, financial condition or
prospects of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, has
occurred, (v) the date that the Borrowers, any of their Subsidiaries or any
Affiliate of the Borrowers shall commence any litigation proceeding against the
Administrative Agent or any Lender or any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent
or any Lender in connection with or related to any of the transactions
contemplated by the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents, this Amendment
or any documents, agreements or instruments executed in connection with any of
the foregoing, (vi) the date that any holder of Subordinated Debt takes any
action in enforcement of its rights under such Subordinated Debt, or any "Event
of Default" under and as defined in any instrument evidencing any such
Subordinated Debt shall have occurred, the effect of which would, but for the
provisions of the Intercreditor and Subordination Agreement dated as of August
29, 2000, with respect thereto, be to permit the holder of such Subordinated
Debt to accelerate such Indebtedness, or (vii) January 31, 2001. On and after
the Forbearance Termination Date, the Administrative Agent and each of the
Lenders shall be free in its sole and absolute discretion to proceed to enforce
any or all of its rights under or in respect of the Credit Agreement, the other
Loan Documents and applicable law, including, without limitation, (x) the right
to require the immediate repayment of the Loans and the other Obligations in
full, (y) the right to require deposit of cash collateral or the delivery of a
letter of credit reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in an
amount equal to the then Maximum Drawing Amount of all Letters of Credit in
accordance with Section 5.2(c) of the Credit Agreement, and (z) the right to
cease making Revolving Credit Loans or International Facility Loans, or issuing,
extending or renewing Letters of Credit.
SECTION 4. COVENANTS. Without any prejudice or impairment whatsoever to
any of the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent or any Lender
contained in the Credit Agreement or in any other Loan Documents, the Borrowers
covenant and agree with the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders as
follows:
(a) Revolver Sublimit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
stated in Section 2 of the Credit Agreement, at no time during the period
beginning on the date hereof and ending on the Forbearance Termination Date
shall the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders be obligated to make or
fund any Revolving Credit Loans if, after the making of such Revolving Credit
Loan, the sum of (i) the outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans (after
giving effect to all amounts requested), (ii) the Maximum Drawing Amount, (iii)
all Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations, and (iv) the International Facility Amount
(such aggregate amount, the "Revolving Facility Usage"), would exceed during any
period set forth in the table below the amount set forth opposite such period in
such table (such amount, the then applicable "Revolver Sublimit"):
4
-4-
Period Revolver Sublimit
------ -----------------
December 29, 2000 - January 18, 2001 $168,000,000
January 19, 2001 - January 30, 2001 $166,000,000
January 31, 2001 and thereafter $162,000,000
If the Revolving Facility Usage at any time exceeds the Revolver Sublimit in
effect at such time, TransTechnology shall immediately prepay an amount equal to
such excess to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders and the
Administrative Agent, for application to the outstanding principal amount of the
Revolving Credit Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Revolving Credit
Commitments of the Lenders shall not be reduced or deemed to be reduced hereby
and the Commitment Fees payable pursuant to Sections 2.2, 3.13 and 3.14 of the
Credit Agreement shall continue to be payable with respect to the aggregate
Revolving Credit Commitments, the Maximum DM Amount and the Maximum Sterling
Amount, respectively.
(b) Letters of Credit. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary stated in Section 5 of the Credit Agreement, at no time during the
period beginning on the date hereof and ending on the Forbearance Termination
Date shall the Issuing Bank be required to issue, extend or renew any Letter of
Credit if, as a result thereof, the Revolving Facility Usage, after giving
effect to such issuance, extension or renewal, would exceed the Revolver
Sublimit in effect at such time.
(c) Applicable Margin. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary stated in the definition of "Applicable Margin" in the Credit Agreement
or in Section 6.11 of the Credit Agreement, between January 1, 2001 and the
Forbearance Termination Date the Applicable Margin in effect with respect to
Base Rate Loans shall be 2.50%, and the Applicable Margin in effect with respect
to Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be 4.00%; provided that, for the avoidance of
doubt, in the event that any Default or Event of Default occurring or arising
prior to the Forbearance Termination Date is continuing on the Forbearance
Termination Date, the provisions of Section 6.11 of the Credit Agreement shall
apply at such time to the determination of the applicable rate of interest on
the Loans outstanding at such time.
(d) Eurocurrency Rate Loans. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary stated in the definition of "Interest Period" in the Credit Agreement
or in Section 2.7, Section 3.5 or Section 4.5 of the Credit Agreement, between
the Effective Date and the Forbearance Termination Date TransTechnology may
elect to convert any part of the Loans to or maintain any part of the Loans as
Eurocurrency Rate Loans in accordance with the applicable provisions of the
Credit Agreement as in effect as of the Effective Date, so long as the Interest
Periods with respect to any Eurocurrency Rate Loans borrowed, converted or
renewed after the Effective Date do not extend beyond January 31, 2001.
(e) Distributions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
stated in Section 10.4 of the Credit Agreement, TransTechnology shall not from
the
5
-5-
date hereof until the Forbearance Termination Date declare or pay any dividends

shares of the capital stock of TransTechnology.

the close of business on January 5, 2001, TransTechnology shall engage a
consultant to work on behalf of TransTechnology and its Subsidiaries on the
implementation of their strategic plans (the "Consultant"). The identity of the
Consultant shall be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent.
TransTechnology shall provide to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, with
the assistance of the Consultant, financial information regarding
TransTechnology and its Subsidiaries required to permit the Lenders' evaluation
of, among other things, the financial covenant levels applicable to the
Borrowers and their Subsidiaries, and which will include, but not be limited to,
the following:
(i) as soon as practicable after the Consultant's engagement,
and in any event by January 16, 2001, projections of
weekly cash flow (including receipts, collections and
disbursements), between the date of the Consultant's
engagement and March 31, 2001, and no later than the end
of each week thereafter, such projections for each period
of thirteen weeks commencing with the following week; and
(ii) as soon as practicable after the Consultant's engagement,
full projections (including statements of income and cash
flows and balance sheets) for each quarter between the
Effective Date and March 31, 2003, and for each month
between the Effective Date and September 30, 2001.
(g) Expenses. The Borrowers shall pay or reimburse on demand
the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders for all reasonable costs and
expenses the Administrative Agent or such Lender incurs in connection with the
negotiation, execution and delivery of the agreements and transactions
contemplated by this Amendment or which otherwise are required to be paid under
the Loan Documents.
(h) Compliance with Loan Documents. The Borrowers and their
Subsidiaries shall comply with all of the terms, covenants and provisions
contained in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents except as such
terms, covenants and provisions are expressly modified by this Amendment upon
the terms set forth herein.

shall at any time or from time to time execute and deliver such further
instruments and take such further action as the Administrative Agent may
reasonably request to effect the purposes of this Amendment, the Credit
Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(j) Event of Default; Extension of Forbearance. Any failure
by any of the Borrowers or their Subsidiaries to comply with any provision of
this Section 4 applicable to such Borrower or Subsidiary, or any material breach
by any of the Borrowers of any of their representations and warranties set forth
in Section 6 below, shall constitute an Event of Default; provided that,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated in Section 27 of the Credit
Agreement, (i) any waiver of, or agreement to forbear from the exercise of
remedies with respect to or from ceasing to make Loans and Letters of Credit
available as a result of, any Event of Default arising as a result of any breach
