C. Under the terms of Sections 7.1, 7.6 and 7.13 of the Loan Agreement, Borrower and Parent are prohibited from entering into the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and therefore Borrower has requested that Agent consent to such transactions and amend the Loan Agreement as appropriate.
