AGREEMENTS:
NOW,
THEREFORE,
for good
and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Current
Maturities of Long-Term Debt.
The
Credit Agreement is hereby amended in all respects necessary to reflect that,

2006, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans made

Current Maturities of Long-Term Debt for the purposes of calculating the Fixed
Charge Coverage Ratio under Section
10.1.1
of the
Credit Agreement.
2. Effectiveness.
This
Amendment shall become effective when the Administrative Agent shall have
received counterparts or signature pages executed by the Borrower, the Domestic
Guarantors, the Administrative Agent and the Requisite Lenders.
3. Representations
and Warranties of the Borrower and the Guarantors.
As an
inducement to the Administrative Agent, the Euro Loan Agent and the Lenders
to
enter into this Amendment, the Borrower and the Domestic Guarantors hereby
represent and warrant to the Administrative Agent, the Euro Loan Agent and
the
Lenders that, on and as of the date hereof:
(a) the
representations and warranties contained in the Credit Agreement and the other
Loan Documents are true and correct, except for (1) representations and
warranties that expressly relate to an earlier date, which remain true and
correct as of said earlier date, and (2) representations and warranties
that have become untrue or incorrect solely because of changes permitted by
the
terms of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and
(b) no
Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
4. Effect
of Amendment; Continuing Effectiveness of Credit Agreement and Loan
Documents.
(a) Neither
this Amendment nor any other indulgences that may have been granted to the
Borrower or any of the Domestic Guarantors by the Administrative Agent, the
Euro
Loan Agent or any Lender shall constitute a course of dealing or otherwise
obligate the Administrative Agent, the Euro Loan Agent or any Lender to modify,
expand or extend the agreements contained herein, to agree to any other
amendments to the Credit Agreement or to grant any consent to, waiver of or
indulgence with respect to any other noncompliance with any provision of the
Loan Documents.
(b) This
Amendment shall constitute a Loan Document for all purposes of the Credit
Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Any noncompliance by the Borrower or
any
Domestic Guarantor with any of the covenants, terms, conditions or provisions
of
this Amendment shall constitute an Event of Default. Except to the extent
amended hereby, the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and all terms,
conditions and provisions thereof shall continue in full force and effect in
all
respects.
5. Counterparts.
This
Amendment may be executed in multiple counterparts or copies, each of which
shall be deemed an original hereof for all purposes. One or more counterparts
or
copies of this Amendment may be executed by one or more of the parties hereto,
and some different counterparts or copies executed by one or more of the other
parties. Each counterpart or copy hereof executed by any party hereto shall
be
binding upon the party executing same even though other parties may execute
one
or more different counterparts or copies, and all counterparts or copies hereof
so executed shall constitute but one and the same agreement. Each party hereto,
by execution of one or more counterparts or copies hereof, expressly authorizes
and directs any other party hereto to detach the signature pages and any
corresponding acknowledgment, attestation, witness or similar pages relating
thereto from any such counterpart or copy hereof executed by the authorizing
party and affix same to one or more other identical counterparts or copies
hereof so that upon execution of multiple counterparts or copies hereof by
all
parties hereto, there shall be one or more counterparts or copies hereof to
which is(are) attached signature pages containing signatures of all parties
hereto and any corresponding acknowledgment, attestation, witness or similar
pages relating thereto.

laws of the State of Tennessee, without reference to the conflicts or choice
of
law principles thereof.

headings in this Amendment and the usage herein of defined terms are for
convenience of reference only, and shall not be construed as amplifying,

terminology used, shall be deemed to include any and all amendments,
modifications, supplements, extensions, renewals, substitutions and/or
