A M E N D M E N T
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein
contained and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Subparagraph (a) of Section 7, Regulatory Compliance Cooperation, is
hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
(a) In the event that an SBIC determines that it has a
Regulatory Problem (as defined below), the Company agrees to use
commercially reasonable efforts to take all such actions as are
reasonably requested by such SBIC in order (i) to effectuate and
facilitate any transfer by such SBIC of any Securities (as defined
below) of the Company then held by such SBIC to any Person
designated by such SBIC and approved by the FS Entities (with such
approval not to be unreasonably withheld), (ii) to continue and
preserve the voting interests with respect to the Company arising
out of such SBIC's ownership of voting Securities before the
transfers referred to above (including entering into such additional
agreements as are requested by such SBIC to permit any Person(s)
1
designated by such SBIC and approved by the FS Entities (with such
approval not to be unreasonably withheld) to exercise any voting
power which is relinquished by such SBIC upon any exchange of voting
Securities for nonvoting Securities of the Company) and (iii)
entering into such additional agreements and taking such additional
actions, in each case as are reasonably requested by such SBIC in
order to effectuate the intent of the foregoing.
If an SBIC elects to transfer Securities of the Company
to a Regulated Holder (as defined below) in order to avoid a
Regulatory Problem, the Company shall enter into such agreements
with such Regulated Holder as it may reasonably request in order to
assist such Regulated Holder in complying with applicable laws,
rules and regulations to which it is subject. Such agreements may
include restrictions on the redemption, repurchase or retirement of
Securities of the Company that would result or be reasonably
expected to result in such Regulated Holder holding more voting
securities or total securities (equity and debt) than it is
permitted to hold under such regulations.
2.Subparagraph (d) of Section 8, Information Rights and Related
Covenants, is hereby deleted in its entirety.
3. Except as amended hereby, the Stockholders' Agreement shall
remain in full force and effect and is hereby ratified and confirmed in all
respects.
4. All capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meanings
set forth in the Stockholders' Agreement.
