normal recurring adjustments as necessary for the fair presentation thereof).
Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries had, to the best knowledge of
the Borrower, as at the date of the balance sheet referred to above, any
material Guarantee Obligation, contingent liability or liability for taxes, or
any long-term lease or unusual forward or long-term commitment, including,
without limitation, any interest rate or foreign currency swap or exchange
transaction, which is not reflected in the foregoing statements or in the notes
thereto and which, to the best knowledge of the Borrower, has any reasonable
likelihood of resulting in a material cost or loss. During the period from
March 31, 1997 to and including the date hereof there has been, to the best
knowledge of the Borrower, no sale, transfer or other disposition by the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of any material part of its business, or
property and no purchase or other acquisition of any business or property
(including any capital stock of any other Person) material in relation to the
consolidated financial condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries at March
31, 1997.
(b) Corporate Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. Each
Credit Party has the corporate power and authority, and the legal right, to
make, deliver and perform this Amendment, any of the Notes and the other Loan
Documents to which it is a party and, with respect to the Borrower, to borrow
under the Credit Agreement and has taken all necessary corporate action to
authorize the borrowings on the terms and conditions of, or the granting of any
security interests under, the Credit Agreement, this Amendment, any of the
Notes and the other Loan Documents and to authorize the execution, delivery and
performance of this Amendment, any of the Notes, the other Loan Documents to
which it is a party. No consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or
other act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person
is required in connection with the borrowings under the Credit Agreement or
with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability
14
of, or the granting of any security interests under, the Credit Agreement, this
Amendment and any of the Notes or the other Loan Documents to which any Credit
Party is a party, except for those set forth on Schedule 5.4 hereto, each of
which have been made or taken and are in full force and effect. This Amendment,
any Note and each of the other Loan Documents has been duly executed and
delivered on behalf of the Credit Party thereto. This Amendment, any Note and
each of the other Loan Documents constitutes a legal, valid and binding
obligation of the Credit Party thereto enforceable against such Credit Party in
accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws
affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and by general
equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or
at law).
(c) No Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance of this
Amendment, any of the Notes and the other Loan Documents, the borrowings under
the Credit Agreement and the use of the proceeds thereof will not violate any
Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation of any Credit Party or of any of
their Subsidiaries.
(d) Disclosure. No information, financial statement, report,
certificate or other document prepared or furnished by or on behalf of any
Credit Party to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with this
Amendment, any other Loan Document (but excluding all projections and pro forma
financial statements which shall have been prepared in good faith and based
upon reasonable assumptions) contains any untrue statement of a material fact
or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements herein or
therein not misleading. As of the Effective Date, there is no fact known to any
Credit Party (other than general economic conditions, which conditions are
commonly known and affect businesses generally) which has, or which could
reasonably be expected to have, in the reasonable judgment of such Credit
Party, a Material Adverse Effect.

ANNEX A
SECTION 2 AMOUNT AND TERMS OF COMMITMENTS
2.1 Revolving Credit Commitments. (a) Subject to the terms and
conditions hereof, each Revolving Credit Lender severally agrees to make
revolving credit loans (each, a "Revolving Credit Loan", collectively,
"Revolving Credit Loans") to the Borrower from time to time during the
Revolving Credit Commitment Period in an aggregate principal amount at any one
time outstanding, when added to such Revolving Credit Lender's Revolving Credit
Commitment Percentage of all Letter of Credit Outstandings and outstanding
Swing Line Loans, not to exceed the lesser of (i) the amount of such Revolving
Credit Lender's Revolving Credit Commitment less such Revolving Credit Lender's
Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of any commitment in respect of any
working capital facility described in subsection 8.2(i)(iii) and (ii) such
Lender's Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the Borrowing Base then in
effect. During the Revolving Credit Commitment Period the Borrower may use the
Revolving Credit Commitments by borrowing, prepaying the Revolving Credit Loans
in whole or in part, and reborrowing, all in accordance with the terms and
conditions hereof.
(b) The Revolving Credit Loans may from time to time be (i) Eurodollar
Loans, (ii) Alternate Base Rate Loans or (iii) a combination thereof, as
determined by the Borrower and notified to the Administrative Agent in
accordance with subsections 2.3 and 2.13.
2.2 Revolving Credit Notes. The Borrower agrees that, upon the request
to the Administrative Agent by any Revolving Credit Lender, in order to
evidence such Lender's Revolving Credit Loans the Borrower will execute and
deliver to such Lender a promissory note substantially in the form of Exhibit
A-1, with appropriate insertions as to payee, date and principal amount (each,
as amended, supplemented, replaced or otherwise modified from time to time, a
"Revolving Credit Note"), payable to the order of such Revolving Credit Lender
and in a principal amount equal to the lesser of (a) the amount of the initial
Revolving Credit Commitment of such Revolving Credit Lender and (b) the
aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans made by such
Revolving Credit Lender. Each Revolving Credit Lender is hereby authorized to
record the date, Type and amount of each Revolving Credit Loan made by such
Revolving Credit Lender, each continuation thereof, each conversion of all or a
portion thereof to another Type, the date and amount of each payment or
prepayment of principal thereof and, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, the
length of each Interest Period with respect thereto, on the schedules annexed
to and constituting a part of its Revolving Credit Note, and any such
recordation shall, in the absence of manifest error, constitute prima facie
evidence of the accuracy of the information so recorded, provided that the
failure by any Revolving Credit Lender to make any such recordation shall not
affect any of the obligations of the Borrower under such Revolving Credit Note
or this Agreement. Any Revolving Credit Note shall (x) be dated the Closing
Date, (y) be stated to mature on the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination
Date and (z) provide for the payment of interest in accordance with subsection
4.1.
29
2
2.3 Procedure for Revolving Credit Borrowing. The Borrower may borrow
under the Revolving Credit Commitments during the Revolving Credit Commitment
Period on any Business Day, provided that the Borrower shall give the
Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (which notice must be received by the
Administrative Agent prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, (a) three
Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date, if all or any part of the
requested Revolving Credit Loans are to be initially Eurodollar Loans, or (b)
one Business Day prior to the requested Borrowing Date, otherwise), specifying
(i) the amount to be borrowed, (ii) the requested Borrowing Date, (iii) whether
the borrowing is to be of Eurodollar Loans, Alternate Base Rate Loans or a
combination thereof and (iv) if the borrowing is to be entirely or partly of
Eurodollar Loans, the respective amounts of each such Type of Loan and the
respective lengths of the initial Interest Periods therefor. Each borrowing
under the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be in an amount equal to (A) in
the case of Alternate Base Rate Loans, $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000
in excess thereof (or, if the then Available Revolving Credit Commitments are
less than $500,000, such lesser amount) and (B) in the case of Eurodollar
Loans, $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $250,000 in excess thereof. Upon
receipt of any such notice from the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall
promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender thereof. Each Revolving Credit
Lender will make the amount of its pro rata share of each borrowing available
to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Borrower at the office of
the Administrative Agent specified in subsection 12.2 prior to 11:00 A.M., New
York City time, on the Borrowing Date requested by the Borrower in funds
immediately available to the Administrative Agent. Such borrowing will then be
made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent crediting the
account of the Borrower on the books of such office with the aggregate of the
amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the Revolving Credit
Lenders and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent.
2.4 Commitment Fee; Administrative Agent Fees. (a) The Borrower agrees
to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit
Lender a commitment fee for the period from and including the first day of the
Revolving Credit Commitment Period to the Revolving Credit Commitment
Termination Date, computed at the rate of 1/2 of 1% per annum on the average
daily Available Revolving Credit Commitment of such Revolving Credit Lender
during the period for which payment is made, payable quarterly in arrears on
the last day of each March, June, September and December and on the Revolving
Credit Commitment Termination Date.
(b) The Borrower shall pay to Chase the amounts set forth in the Fee
Letter dated December 26, 1996 among Chase, CSI, Bankers Trust Company, BT
Securities Corporation and the Borrower in the amounts and on the dates set
forth therein.
2.5 Termination or Reduction of Revolving Credit Commitments. (a) The
Borrower shall have the right, upon not less than five Business Days' notice to
the Administrative Agent, to terminate the Revolving Credit Commitments or,
from time to time, reduce the unutilized portion of the amount of the Revolving
Credit Commitments, provided that (i) the Revolving
30
3
Credit Commitments shall not be terminated if any Letters of Credit or Swing
Line Loans are outstanding and (ii) any such termination of the Revolving
Credit Commitments shall be accompanied by prepayment in full of the Revolving
Credit Loans, Swing Line Loans and L/C Obligations then outstanding, together
with accrued interest thereon to the date of such prepayment, cancellation of
all Letters of Credit (unless cash collateralized in accordance with the last
sentence of this paragraph) and the payment of any unpaid commitment fee then
accrued hereunder. Any such reduction shall be in an amount of $500,000, or a
whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof, and shall reduce permanently the
amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect and shall further
include any amounts due in respect thereof under subsection 4.9. Upon
termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments, any Letter of Credit then
outstanding which has been fully cash collateralized upon terms reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender shall no longer
be considered a "Letter of Credit" as defined in subsection 1.1, and any L/C
Participating Interest heretofore granted by the Issuing Lender to the
Revolving Credit Lenders in such Letter of Credit shall be deemed terminated
but the letter of credit fees payable under subsection 3.3 shall continue to
accrue to the Issuing Lender with respect to such Letter of Credit until the
expiry thereof.
(b) In the case of any reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments
hereunder, to the extent, if any, that the sum of the Revolving Credit Loans,
Swing Line Loans and the Letter of Credit Outstandings exceeds the Revolving
Credit Commitments as so reduced, the Borrower shall make a prepayment equal to
such excess amount, the proceeds of which shall be applied first, to payment of
the Swing Line Loans then outstanding, second, to payment of the Revolving
Credit Loans then outstanding, third, to payment of any L/C Obligations then
outstanding and last, to cash collateralize any outstanding Letter of Credit on
terms satisfactory to the Required Lenders.

date, Type and amount of its Tranche B Term Loan, each continuation thereof,
each conversion of all or a portion thereof to another Type, the date and
amount of each payment or prepayment of principal of its Tranche B Term Loan
and, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, the length of each Interest Period with
respect thereto, on the schedules annexed to and constituting a part of its
Tranche B Term Note, and any such recordation shall, in the absence of manifest
error, constitute prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information so
recorded, provided that the failure by any Tranche B Term Loan Lender to make
any such recordation shall not affect any of the obligations of the Borrower
under such Tranche B Term Note or this Agreement. Any Tranche B Term Note shall

2.9 [Intentionally Omitted].
2.10 Repayment of Loans. (a) [Intentionally Omitted].
(b) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of: (i) each Revolving Credit Lender, the
then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Credit Loan of such Lender, on
the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date (or such earlier date on which
the Revolving Credit Loans become due and payable pursuant to Section 9); (ii)
the Swing Line Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of the Swing Line
Loans, on the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date (or such earlier
date on which the Swing Line Loans become due and payable pursuant to Section
9); (iii) each Tranche A Term Loan Lender, such Tranche A Term Loan Lender's
Tranche A Term Loan Commitment Percentage of the amounts specified in
subsection 2.7(b) (or, if less, the aggregate amount of the Tranche A Term
Loans of such Tranche A Term Loan Lender then outstanding), on the dates
specified in subsection 2.7(b) (or such earlier date on which the Tranche A
Term Loans become due and payable pursuant to Section 9); and (iv) each Tranche
B Term Loan Lender, such Tranche B Term Loan Lender's Tranche B Term Loan
Commitment Percentage of the amounts specified in subsection 2.8(b) (or, if
less, the aggregate amount of the Tranche B Term Loans of such
34
7
Tranche B Term Loan Lender then outstanding), on the dates specified in
subsection 2.8(b) (or such earlier date on which the Tranche B Term Loans
become due and payable pursuant to Section 9). The Borrower hereby further
agrees to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Loans from time to
time outstanding from the date hereof until payment in full thereof at the
rates per annum, and on the dates, set forth in subsection 4.1.
(c) Each Lender (including the Swing Line Lender) shall maintain in
accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing
indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan of such
Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest
payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.
(d) The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to
subsection 12.6(d), and a subaccount therein for each Lender, in which shall be
recorded (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof and each
Interest Period, if any, applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal
or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to
each Lender hereunder and (iii) both the amount of any sum received by the
Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each Lender's share
thereof.
(e) The entries made in the Register and the accounts of each Lender
maintained pursuant to subsection 2.10(c) shall, in the absence of manifest
error and to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of
the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded;
provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent
to maintain the Register or any such account, or any error therein, shall not
in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay (with applicable
interest) the Loans made to the Borrower by such Lender in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement.
2.11 Optional Prepayments. (a) The Borrower may, at any time and from
time to time, prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, without premium or
penalty, upon at least three Business Days' irrevocable notice to the
Administrative Agent, specifying the date and amount of prepayment and whether
the prepayment is of (i) Eurodollar Loans, Alternate Base Rate Loans or a
combination thereof, and, if of a combination thereof, the amount allocable to
each and (ii) Tranche A Term Loans, Tranche B Term Loans, Revolving Credit
Loans or a combination thereof, and if of a combination thereof, the amount
allocable to each. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent
shall promptly notify each Term Loan Lender or Revolving Credit Lender, as the
case may be, thereof. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such
notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with,
in the case of prepayments of the Term Loans only, accrued interest to such
date on the amount prepaid. Optional prepayments of the Term Loans shall be
applied, with respect to the first $10,000,000 of such prepayments, to
installments of the Term Loans as the Borrower may elect (other than scheduled
installments of the Tranche B
35
8
Term Loans prior to December 31, 2002) and, with respect to any amount of such
prepayments in excess of $10,000,000, such prepayments shall be applied pro
rata to the Term Loans based upon the then outstanding principal amounts of the
Tranche A Term Loans and Tranche B Term Loans (with each Tranche A Term Loan
and Tranche B Term Loan to be allocated that percentage of the amount to be
applied as is equal to a fraction (expressed as a percentage), the numerator of
which is the then outstanding principal amount of such Tranche A Term Loan and
Tranche B Term Loan, as the case may be, and the denominator of which is equal
to the then outstanding principal amount of all Term Loans).
(b) With respect to optional prepayments of the Term Loans after
$10,000,000 of optional prepayments shall have been made, the amount of each
principal payment of Term Loans shall be applied to reduce the then remaining
installments of the Tranche A Term Loans and Tranche B Term Loans, pro rata
based upon the then remaining number of installments of such Tranche A Term
Loans or Tranche B Term Loans, as the case may be, after giving effect to all
prior reductions thereto (i.e., each then remaining installment of the Tranche
A Term Loans or Tranche B Term Loans, as the case may be, shall be reduced by
an amount equal to the aggregate amount to be applied to the Tranche A Term
Loans or Tranche B Term Loans, as the case may be, divided by the number of the
then remaining installments for such Tranche A Term Loans or Tranche B Term
Loans); provided, that if the amount to be applied to any installment as
required by this Agreement would exceed the then remaining amount of such
installment, then an amount equal to such excess shall be applied to the next
succeeding installment after giving effect to all prior reductions thereto
(including the amount of prepayments theretofore allocated pursuant to the
preceding portion of this sentence). Amounts prepaid on account of the Term
Loans may not be reborrowed. Partial prepayments shall be in an aggregate
principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof
and shall include any amounts due in respect thereof under subsection 4.9.
2.12 Mandatory Prepayments and Revolving Credit Commitment Reductions.
(a) If, subsequent to the Second Amendment Closing Date, unless the Required
Lenders (and Tranche A Term Loan Lenders and Tranche B Term Loan Lenders having
in the aggregate at least a majority of the outstanding Term Loans) and the
Borrower shall otherwise agree, Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries shall issue
any class of Capital Stock other than a Permitted Issuance or incur any
Indebtedness other than any Indebtedness permitted pursuant to subsection 8.2
or 11.6(i), 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof shall on the first Business
Day after receipt, be applied toward the prepayment of the Loans and reduction
of Commitments as set forth in paragraph (d) of this subsection 2.12.
(b) Unless the Required Lenders (and Tranche A Term Loan Lenders and
Tranche B Term Loan Lenders having in the aggregate at least a majority of the
outstanding Term Loans) and the Borrower shall otherwise agree, if the Borrower
or any of its Subsidiaries shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale
(including the sale and leaseback of assets and any sale of
36
9
accounts receivable in connection with a receivable financing transaction) such
Net Cash Proceeds shall, on the first Business Day after receipt, be applied
toward the prepayment of the Loans and reduction of Commitments as set forth in
paragraph (d) of this subsection 2.12.
(c) Unless the Required Lenders (and Tranche A Term Loan Lenders and
Tranche B Term Loan Lenders having in the aggregate at least a majority of the
outstanding Term Loans) and the Borrower shall otherwise agree, if for any
fiscal year, commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 1996 there
shall be Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year, the ECF Percentage of such
Excess Cash Flow shall be applied toward prepayment of the Loans and reduction
of the Commitments as set forth in paragraph (d) of this subsection 2.12. Each
such prepayment shall be made on or before the date which is seven Business
Days after the earlier of (A) the date on which the financial statements
referred to in subsection 7.1(a) are required to be delivered to the Lenders
and (B) the date on which said financial statements are actually delivered.
(d) All mandatory prepayments shall be applied first to the Term Loans
and second to the permanent reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments. The
application of prepayments referred to in the preceding sentence shall be made
first to Alternate Base Rate Loans and second to Eurodollar Loans. Each
mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans shall be applied pro rata to the Term
Loans based upon the then outstanding principal amounts of the Tranche A Term
Loans and Tranche B Term Loans (with each Tranche A Term Loan and Tranche B
Term Loan to be allocated that percentage of the amount to be applied as is
equal to a fraction (expressed as a percentage), the numerator of which is the
then outstanding principal amount of such Tranche A Term Loan or Tranche B Term
Loan, as the case may be, and the denominator of which is equal to the then
outstanding principal amount of all Term Loans).
The amount of each principal prepayment of Term Loans shall be applied
to reduce the then remaining installments of the Tranche A Term Loans and
Tranche B Term Loans, pro rata based upon the then remaining number of
installments of such Tranche A Term Loans or Tranche B Term Loans, as the case
may be, after giving effect to all prior reductions thereto (i.e., each then
remaining installment of the Tranche A Term Loans or Tranche B Term Loans, as
the case may be, shall be reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate amount to
be applied to the Tranche A Term Loans or Tranche B Term Loans, as the case may
be, divided by the number of the then remaining installments for such Tranche A
Term Loans or Tranche B Term Loans); provided, that if the amount to be applied
to any installment as required by this Agreement would exceed the then
remaining amount of such installment, then an amount equal to such excess shall
be applied to the next succeeding installment after giving effect to all prior
reductions thereto (including the amount of prepayments theretofore allocated
pursuant to the preceding portion of this sentence). Amounts prepaid on account
of the Term Loans may not be reborrowed.
37
10
(e) If at any time the sum of the Revolving Credit Loans, Swing Line
Loans and the Letter of Credit Outstandings exceeds the lesser of (i) the
Borrowing Base as then in effect and (ii) the Revolving Credit Commitments less
the amount of any commitment in respect of any working capital facility
described in subsection 8.2(i)(iii) (including at any time after any reduction
of the Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to subsection 2.5 or this
subsection 2.12), the Borrower shall make a payment in the amount of such
excess which payment shall be applied in the order set forth in subsection
2.5(b). To the extent that after giving effect to any prepayment of the Loans
required by the preceding sentence, the sum of the Revolving Credit Loans,
Swing Line Loans and Letter of Credit Outstandings exceed the lesser of clauses
(i) and (ii) above, the Borrower shall, without notice or demand, immediately
cash collateralize the then outstanding L/C Obligations in an amount equal to
such excess upon terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(f) If at any time the Borrower or any Subsidiary shall receive any
cash proceeds of any casualty or condemnation in excess of $2,000,000 permitted
by subsection 8.6(c), such proceeds shall be deposited with the Administrative
Agent who shall hold such proceeds in a cash collateral account satisfactory to
it. From time to time upon request, the Administrative Agent will release such
proceeds to the Borrower or such Subsidiary, as necessary, to pay for
replacement or rebuilding of the assets lost or condemned. If such assets are
not replaced or rebuilt within one year (subject to reasonable extension for
force majeure or weather delays) following the condemnation or casualty or if
the Borrower fails to notify the Administrative Agent in writing on or before
180 days after such casualty or condemnation that the Borrower shall commence
the replacement or rebuilding of such asset, then, in either case, the
Administrative Agent may apply any amounts in the cash collateral account to
the repayment of the Loans in accordance with subsection 2.12(d).
(g) If there shall be any reduction in the price under the Omega
Acquisition Agreement, the Omega Escrow Agreement (other than (i) any reduction
in the purchase price described in subsection 1.09(a)(ii) of the Omega
Acquisition Agreement to the extent, and only to the extent that any such
reduction does not exceed $500,000 in the aggregate and (ii) any reduction in
the purchase price which is due to a breach of any covenant, representation or
warranty in the Omega Acquisition Agreement by any party thereto other than the
Borrower which, due to such party's refusal or other failure to cure, is cured
with such reduction) pursuant to the terms thereof, then on the same Business
Day as the Borrower receives any payment in respect thereof, the Borrower
shall, unless the Required Lenders and the Borrower shall otherwise agree,
repay the Loans in the amount of such reduction to be applied first to the Term
Loans in accordance with subsection 2.12(d) and second to the permanent
reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments. The application of prepayments
referred to in the preceding sentence shall be made first to Alternate Base
Rate Loans and second to Eurodollar Loans. Each mandatory prepayment of the
Term Loans pursuant to
38
11
this subsection 2.12(g) shall be applied to the remaining installments thereof
in accordance with subsection 2.12(d). To the extent that after giving effect
to any prepayment of the Loans required by the preceding sentence, the sum of
the Revolving Credit Loans, Swing Line Loans and Letter of Credit Outstandings
exceed the lesser of (i) the Borrowing Base and (ii) the Revolving Credit
Commitments as then reduced, the Borrower shall, without notice or demand,
immediately cash collateralize the then outstanding L/C Obligations in an
amount equal to such excess upon terms reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent.
(h) If there shall be any reduction in the price under any of the
Acquisition Documents or the Camden Acquisition Documents (other than (i) an
adjustment due to working capital adjustments as contemplated by the
Acquisition Documents or the Camden Acquisition Documents, as the case may be,
or (ii) any reduction in the purchase price which is due to a breach of any
covenant, representation or warranty in any Acquisition Agreement or Camden
Acquisition Document, as the case may be, by any party thereto other than the
Borrower which, due to such party's refusal or other failure to cure, is cured
with such reduction) pursuant to the terms thereof, then on the same Business
Day as the Borrower receives any payment in respect thereof, the Borrower
shall, unless the Required Lenders and the Borrower shall otherwise agree,
repay the Loans in the amount of such reduction to be applied first to the Term
Loans in accordance with subsection 2.12(d) and second to the permanent
reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments. The application of prepayments
referred to in the preceding sentence shall be made first to Alternate Base
Rate Loans and second to Eurodollar Loans. Each mandatory prepayment of the
Term Loans pursuant to this subsection 2.12(h) shall be applied to the
remaining installments thereof in accordance with subsection 2.12(d). To the
extent that after giving effect to any prepayment of the Loans required by the
preceding sentence, the sum of the Revolving Credit Loans, Swing Line Loans and
Letter of Credit Outstandings exceed the lesser of (i) the Borrowing Base and
(ii) the Revolving Credit Commitments as then reduced, the Borrower shall,
without notice or demand, immediately cash collateralize the then outstanding
L/C Obligations in an amount equal to such excess upon terms reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(i) The provisions of this subsection 2.12 shall not be in derogation
of any other covenant or obligation of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries under
the Loan Documents and shall not be construed as a waiver of, or a consent to
departure from, any such covenant or obligation.
(j) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this subsection 2.12,
if at any time the mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to this
Agreement would result, after giving effect to the procedures set forth in this
Agreement, in the Borrower incurring breakage costs and other Eurodollar Loans
related costs under subsection 4.6, 4.7 or 4.8 as a result of Eurodollar Loans
being prepaid other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable
thereto ("Affected Eurodollar Loans") which breakage costs are required to be
paid pursuant to
39
12
subsection 4.9, then, the Borrower may so long as no Default or Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in its sole discretion,
initially deposit a portion (up to 100%) of the amounts that otherwise would
have been paid in respect to the Affected Eurodollar Loans with the
Administrative Agent (which deposit must be equal in amount to the amount of
Affected Eurodollar Loans not immediately prepaid) to be held as security for
the obligations of the Borrower to make such mandatory prepayment pursuant to a
cash collateral agreement to be entered into in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, with such cash collateral to be
directly applied upon the first occurrence (or occurrences) thereafter of the
last day of an Interest Period applicable to the relevant Term Loan that is a
Eurodollar Loan (or such earlier date or dates as shall be requested by the
Borrower), to repay an aggregate principal amount of such Term Loan equal to
the Affected Eurodollar Loans not initially repaid pursuant to this sentence.
2.13 Conversion and Continuation Options. (a) The Borrower may elect
from time to time to convert Eurodollar Loans to Alternate Base Rate Loans, by
giving the Administrative Agent at least two Business Days' prior irrevocable
notice of such election, provided that, unless the Borrower elects to deposit
with the Administrative Agent the amount of any breakage costs and other
Eurodollar Loan related costs to be incurred by the Borrower under this
Agreement with respect to the prepayment or conversion of such Eurodollar Loan
prior to the end of an Interest Period, any such conversion of Eurodollar Loans
may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto.
The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Alternate Base Rate Loans
to Eurodollar Loans by giving the Administrative Agent at least three Business
Days' prior irrevocable notice of such election. Any such notice of conversion
to Eurodollar Loans shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period or
Interest Periods therefor. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative
Agent shall promptly notify each Term Loan Lender or Revolving Credit Lender,
as the case may be, thereof. All or any part of outstanding Eurodollar Loans
and Alternate Base Rate Loans may be converted as provided herein, provided
that (i) no Alternate Base Rate Loan may be converted into a Eurodollar Loan
when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the
Administrative Agent has or the Required Lenders have determined that such a
conversion is not appropriate and (ii) any such conversion may only be made if,
after giving effect thereto, subsection 2.14 shall not have been contravened.
(b) Any Eurodollar Loans may be continued as such upon the expiration
of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto by the Borrower giving
notice to the Administrative Agent, in accordance with the applicable
provisions of the term "Interest Period" set forth in subsection 1.1, of the
length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such Loans, provided
that no Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such (i) when any Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent has or the Required
Lenders have determined that such a continuation is not appropriate or (ii) if,
after
40
13
giving effect thereto, subsection 2.14 would be contravened and provided,
further, that if the Borrower shall fail to give any required notice as
described above in this paragraph or if such continuation is not permitted
pursuant to the preceding proviso such Eurodollar Loans shall be automatically
converted to Alternate Base Rate Loans on the last day of such then expiring
Interest Period.
2.14 Minimum Amounts of Tranches. All borrowings, conversions and
continuations of Loans hereunder and all selections of Interest Periods
hereunder shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so
that, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Loans
comprising each Eurodollar Tranche shall be equal to $1,000,000 or a whole
multiple of $250,000 in excess thereof and so that there shall not be more than
15 Eurodollar Tranches at any one time outstanding.
2.15 Swing Line Commitment. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions
hereof, the Swing Line Lender agrees to make swing line loans (individually, a
"Swing Line Loan"; collectively, the "Swing Line Loans") to the Borrower from
time to time during the Revolving Credit Commitment Period in an aggregate
principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed $12,500,000,
provided that at no time may the sum of the Swing Line Loans, the Revolving
Credit Loans and Letter of Credit Outstandings exceed the lesser of (i) the
Revolving Credit Commitments less the amount of any commitment in respect of
any working capital facility described in subsection 8.2(i)(iii) and (ii) the
Borrowing Base then in effect. During the Revolving Credit Commitment Period,
the Borrower may use the Swing Line Commitment by borrowing, prepaying the
Swing Line Loans in whole or in part, and reborrowing, all in accordance with
the terms and conditions hereof. All Swing Line Loans shall be made as
Alternate Base Rate Loans and shall not be entitled to be converted into
Eurodollar Loans. The Borrower shall give the Swing Line Lender irrevocable
notice (which notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender prior to 12:00
Noon, New York City time) on the requested Borrowing Date specifying the amount
of the requested Swing Line Loan which shall be in an aggregate minimum amount
of $150,000 or a whole multiple of $25,000 in excess thereof. The proceeds of
the Swing Line Loan will be made available by the Swing Line Lender to the
Borrower at the office of the Swing Line Lender by 3:00 p.m. on the Borrowing
Date by crediting the account of the Borrower at such office with such
proceeds. The Borrower may at any time and from time to time, prepay the Swing
Line Loans, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, by notifying the
Swing Line Lender prior to 12:00 Noon on any Business Day of the date and
amount of prepayment. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such
notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Partial
prepayments shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $150,000 or a whole
multiple of $25,000 in excess thereof.
(b) The Borrower agrees that, upon the request to the Administrative
Agent by the Swing Line Lender, in order to evidence the Swing Line Loans the
Borrower will execute and deliver to the Swing Line Lender a promissory note
substantially
41
14
in the form of Exhibit A-5, with appropriate insertions (as the same may be
amended, supplemented, replaced or otherwise modified from time to time, the
"Swing Line Note"), payable to the order of the Swing Line Lender and
representing the obligation of the Borrower to pay the amount of the Swing Line
Commitment or, if less, the unpaid principal amount of the Swing Line Loans,
with interest thereon as prescribed in subsection 4.1. The Swing Line Lender is
hereby authorized to record the Borrowing Date, the amount of each Swing Line
Loan and the date and amount of each payment or prepayment of principal
thereof, on the schedule annexed to and constituting a part of the Swing Line
Note and any such recordation shall, in the absence of manifest error,
constitute prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information so recorded,
provided that the failure by the Swing Line Lender to make any such recordation
shall not affect any of the obligations of the Borrower under such Swing Line
Note or this Agreement. Any Swing Line Note shall (a) be dated the Closing
Date, (b) be stated to mature on the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination
Date and (c) bear interest for the period from the date thereof until paid in
full on the unpaid principal amount thereof from time to time outstanding at
the applicable interest rate per annum determined as provided in, and payable
as specified in, subsection 4.1.
(c) The Swing Line Lender, at any time in its sole and absolute
discretion may, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably directs the
Swing Line Lender to act on its behalf) request each Revolving Credit Lender
including the Swing Line Lender, to make a Revolving Credit Loan in an amount
equal to such Lender's Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the amount of
the Swing Line Loans outstanding on the date such notice is given (the
"Refunded Swing Line Loans"). Unless any of the events described in paragraph
(f) of Section 9 shall have occurred with respect to the Borrower (in which
event the procedures of paragraph (e) of this subsection 2.15 shall apply) each
Revolving Credit Lender shall make the proceeds of its Revolving Credit Loan
available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender
at the office of the Administrative Agent specified in subsection 12.2 prior to
12:00 Noon (New York City time) in funds immediately available on the Business
Day next succeeding the date such notice is given. The proceeds of such
Revolving Credit Loans shall be immediately applied to repay the Refunded Swing
Line Loans. Effective on the day such Revolving Credit Loans are made, the
portion of the Swing Line Loans so paid shall no longer be outstanding as Swing
Line Loans, shall no longer be due under any Swing Line Note and shall be due
under the respective Revolving Credit Loans issued to the Revolving Credit
Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment
Percentages. The Borrower authorizes the Swing Line Lender to charge the
Borrower's accounts with the Administrative Agent (up to the amount available
in each such account) in order to immediately pay the amount of such Refunded
Swing Line Loans to the extent amounts received from the Revolving Credit
Lenders are not sufficient to repay in full such Refunded Swing Line Loans.
(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Swing Line
Lender shall not be obligated to make any Swing Line Loans if the conditions
set forth in subsection 6.2 have not been satisfied.
42
15
(e) If prior to the making of a Revolving Credit Loan pursuant to
paragraph (c) of subsection 2.15 one of the events described in paragraph (f)
of Section 9 shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the
Borrower, each Revolving Credit Lender will, on the date such Revolving Credit
Loan was to have been made pursuant to the notice in subsection 2.15(c),
purchase an undivided participating interest in the Refunded Swing Line Loan in
an amount equal to (i) its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage times (ii)
the Refunded Swing Line Loans. Each Revolving Credit Lender will immediately
transfer to the Swing Line Lender, in immediately available funds, the amount
of its participation, and upon receipt thereof the Swing Line Lender will
deliver to such Revolving Credit Lender a Swing Line Loan Participation
Certificate dated the date of receipt of such funds and in such amount.
(f) Whenever, at any time after any Revolving Credit Lender has
purchased a participating interest in a Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender
receives any payment on account thereof, the Swing Line Lender will distribute
to such Revolving Credit Lender its participating interest in such amount
(appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the
period of time during which such Revolving Credit Lender's participating
interest was outstanding and funded); provided, however, that in the event that
such payment received by the Swing Line Lender is required to be returned, such
Revolving Credit Lender will return to the Swing Line Lender any portion
thereof previously distributed by the Swing Line Lender to it.
(g) Each Revolving Credit Lender's obligation to make the Loans
referred to in subsection 2.15(c) and to purchase participating interests
pursuant to subsection 2.15(e) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall
not be affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (i) any
set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving
Credit Lender or the Borrower may have against the Swing Line Lender, the
Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or
continuance of a Default or an Event of Default; (iii) any adverse change in
the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower; (iv) any breach of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document by the Borrower, Holdings, any of their
Subsidiaries or any other Lender; or (v) any other circumstance, happening or
event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.
