2
1.3 Amendments to Section 2: The Credit
-----------------------------------
(A) The following shall be added at the end of the first sentence
of Section 2.6(a): "plus the Utilization Fee (computed daily on the basis of a
three hundred sixty (360) day year and actual days elapsed) with respect to each
day on which the aggregate amount of outstanding Loans exceeds 50% of the Total

(D) A new Section 2.13 shall be added to the Credit Agreement, as

"2.13 Extension of Termination Date. (a) The Borrower may, no earlier
-----------------------------
than 60 days and not later than 45 days prior to the then effective Termination
Date (as it may be extended from time to time pursuant hereto), request in
writing that the Termination Date be extended for an additional 364 days by
sending to the Administrative Agent, which will promptly then provide a copy to
each Bank, an Extension Request. After Borrower's request, each Bank may, in
its sole discretion, consent or not consent to such extension by giving written
notice thereof to the Administrative Agent no earlier than 30 days prior to the
then existing Termination Date, but in any event no later than 20 days prior to
the then existing Termination Date. Each Bank's annual decision as to whether
to extend the Termination Date shall be based, in part, on a new credit analysis
utilizing then current information in respect of Borrower's business, financial
condition and operations and other information furnished by Borrower. Failure
of any Bank to respond within such 20 day period shall be deemed to be a refusal
of such request by such Bank. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify
each Bank and Borrower of any Bank's decision to reject the proposed extension.
(b) If, in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.13, a
Bank consents to the extension of the Termination Date, the Termination Date for
such Bank shall be extended for 364 days from the then current Termination Date,
without any further action by Borrower or such Bank; provided that no such
--------
extension shall be effective unless the Commitments of Banks agreeing to so
extend the Termination Date plus the Commitments of any New Banks which have
agreed to become party to this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.18 constitute at
least 50% of the Total Commitment existing on the date hereof.
(c) If any Bank does not consent to a request for an extension of
the Termination Date, or is deemed not to have consented to the requested
extension, and the Termination Date has been extended for the other Bank(s): (i)
the Borrower may, prior to the end of the non-extended Termination Date,
terminate such Bank's Commitment under this Agreement upon payment in full of
principal and interest on all Loans made by such Bank together with such other
sums, if any, that may be due by reason of such prepayment and any fees owing to
such Bank and, in connection with such termination, the Borrower may replace
3
such non-consenting Bank with a New Bank or increase the Commitment of an
existing Bank, in each case pursuant to Section 11.18; and (ii) if the Borrower
has not previously terminated such non-consenting Bank's Commitment under this
Credit Agreement and paid principal and interest on the Loans held by such non-
consenting Bank and other amounts due to such non-consenting Bank as provided
above, then such principal and interest and other amounts due to such non-
consenting Bank shall be due and payable on the non-extended Termination Date
and the Termination Date shall not be extended insofar as such non-consenting
Bank is concerned."
1.4 Amendments to Section 11: Miscellaneous Provisions
---------------------------------------------------
(A) The following shall be deleted from the end of the first
sentence of Section 11.11(a):
"; provided, further, that upon any such assignment hereunder, such
Bank shall concurrently assign to the same Assignee a ratable portion of its
loans, commitments and other rights and obligations under the Revolving Credit
Agreement (Multi-Year Facility) dated as of even date herewith, among Borrower,
the banks parties thereto, Bank of America National Trust and Savings
Association, as administrative agent, Xxxxxx Guaranty Trust Company of New York,
as syndication agent and Citicorp USA, Inc. and The Chase Manhattan Bank as
documentation agents."
(B) A new Section 11.18 shall be added to the Credit Agreement, as
follows:
"11.18 New Banks; Increases in Commitments of Banks. (a) In the
--------------------------------------------
event one or more Banks do not consent to an extension of the Termination Date
pursuant to Section 2.13, if no Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, Borrower may within five days of Borrower's
receipt of notice of such failure to so extend notify the Administrative Agent
and the Banks (a "Commitment Replacement Notice") that (i) it desires to add one
or more additional lenders to the Banks hereunder having aggregate Commitments
not exceeding the Commitment of the Bank(s) which have not consented to an
extension, and/or (ii) with the consent of the relevant Bank, increase the
Commitment of any one or more of the Banks in an aggregate amount not exceeding
the Commitment of the Bank which has not consented to an extension of the
Termination Date; provided that the existing Bank(s) shall have the right on a
--------
pro rata basis based upon the then existing Commitments to increase their
respective Commitments to replace the terminated Commitments before any New Bank
may be added as a Bank hereunder. The Banks desiring to increase their
Commitments based upon the immediately preceding proviso must give notice to the
Administrative Agent of their intention to accept a greater Commitment within
five days of Borrower's Commitment Replacement Notice. Each Commitment
Replacement Notice shall identify each new lender (each a "New Bank") proposed
by Borrower to be added as a Bank and/or each existing Bank which has proposed
to increase its Commitment, the amount of its proposed Commitment and the
proposed effective date of its becoming a Bank hereunder or increasing its
Commitment, as applicable (which shall be the last day of all then current
Interest Periods if there are Eurodollar Advances then outstanding from the
Banks). Any
4
increase in the Commitment of a Bank shall be effective upon the receipt by the
Administrative Agent of a Commitment Increase Letter which shall identify the
proposed effective date (which shall be the last day of all then current
Interest Periods if there are Eurodollar Advances then outstanding from the
Banks). Each New Bank shall, with the consent of the Administrative Agent,
become a Bank hereunder for all purposes and to the same effect as if set forth
on the signature pages hereof, subject to its execution and delivery to the
Administrative Agent of at least one counterpart of this Agreement (which shall
be deemed to include all amendments thereto) and the execution and delivery by
the Administrative Agent and the Borrower of each such counterpart. Each Bank
expressly agrees that its obligations arising hereunder shall not be affected or
diminished by the addition or release of any other Bank hereunder, nor by any
election of the Administrative Agent not to authorize a lender to become a New
Bank.
(b) Following any Bank's or Banks' refusal to extend their
Commitments pursuant to Section 2.13 herein and/or any subsequent change in the
Commitments of the existing Banks or the addition of a New Bank, Schedule 1 of
this Agreement shall be deemed amended to reflect (i) the termination of the
non-extending Bank's Commitment; (ii) the addition of any New Bank; (iii) such
New Bank's Commitment; and (iv) any change to the Commitment of an existing
Bank.
(c) Following any Bank or Banks refusal to extend their Commitments
pursuant to Section 2.13 herein and any subsequent change in the Commitments of
the existing Banks or the addition of a New Bank, Borrower agrees to execute
such Notes as necessary to comply with the requirements of Sections 2.8 and 2.9
of this Agreement."

----------------------------------------- ----------
Credit Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with Schedule 1
attached hereto.

New York, as Syndication Agent; and
Citicorp USA, Inc. as Co-Administrative

Re: Xxxxxx Electronics Corporation's First Amendment to
Revolving Credit Agreement (364-Day Facility)
---------------------------------------------
Ladies and Gentlemen:
I am the Assistant General Counsel of Xxxxxx Electronics Corporation, a
Delaware corporation ("Borrower"), in connection with the First Amendment dated
as of December 3, 1998 (the "First Amendment") to the Revolving Credit Agreement
(364-Day Facility) dated as of December 5, 1997 (as so amended, "Credit
Agreement") by and among Borrower, the banks named therein (the "Banks"), Bank
of America National Trust and Savings Association, as administrative agent for
the Banks (in such capacity "Administrative Agent"), Xxxxxx Guaranty Trust
Company of New York, as Syndication Agent, and Citicorp USA, Inc. as Co-
Administrative Agent. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have
the meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement. This opinion is rendered to you
pursuant to Section 2(A)(1) of the First Amendment.
As Assistant General Counsel to Borrower, I have caused to be made such
legal and factual examinations and inquiries, including an examination of
originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to my satisfaction as
authentic, of such corporate records, agreements, instruments and other
documents as I have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purposes of this
opinion. I have caused to be obtained such certificates and other assurances
(copies of which have been delivered to you) from public officials and officers
and other employees of Borrower as I considered necessary or appropriate for the
purpose of rendering this opinion. I have assumed the genuineness of all
signatures (except that of Borrower), the authenticity of all documents
submitted to us as originals, and the conformity with the originals of all
documents submitted to me as copies.
Subject to the limitations herein set forth, I am opining herein as to the
effect on the subject transaction only of United States federal law, the laws of
the State of California and the General Corporation Law of the State of
Delaware. I am licensed to practice law in the State of California. I assume no
responsibility as to the applicability to the subject transaction or the effect
thereon of the laws of any other jurisdiction.
Exhibit 1 - 1
Based upon the foregoing and in reliance thereon, and subject to the
qualifications, limitations, and assumptions set forth herein, I am of the
opinion that, as of the date hereof:
1. Borrower is a corporation duly incorporated and validly existing as a
corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, with full
corporate power and authority to own and lease its properties and conduct its
business as presently owned and conducted.
2. Borrower is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation in
good standing in the State of California.
3. Borrower has full corporate power and authority to borrow the sums
provided for in the Credit Agreement, to execute and deliver the First Amendment
and to perform its obligations under the Credit Agreement and the First
Amendment.
4. All corporate action required to be taken by Borrower for the
authorization, execution and delivery of the First Amendment by Borrower and the
performance by Borrower of its obligations thereunder and under the Credit
Agreement has been duly taken.
5. The officer of Borrower executing the First Amendment is duly and
properly in office and duly authorized to execute the same.
6. The First Amendment and Credit Agreement are valid and binding
agreements of Borrower, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to
the limitations, qualifications, exceptions and assumptions set forth below.
7. To my knowledge, after causing to be conducted such legal examination
and inquiries and causing to be conducted such discussions with and obtaining
such certificates or other confirmations from officers and other employees of
Borrower as I considered appropriate in the circumstances, no consent,
permission, authorization order or license of any United States federal or
California governmental authority is necessary in connection with the execution
and delivery of the First Amendment by Borrower and Borrower's performance of
its obligations under the First Amendment and the Credit Agreement.
8. There is no provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or the By-
laws of Borrower which would be contravened by the execution and delivery of the
First Amendment by Borrower or by the performance by Borrower of its obligations
under the First Amendment and the Credit Agreement.
9. Borrower is not an "investment company" as defined in the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended.
10. To my knowledge, after causing to be conducted such legal and factual
examination and inquiries and causing to be conducted such discussions with and
obtaining such certificates or other confirmations from officers and other
employees of Borrower as I considered appropriate in the circumstances, no
consent or approval of any trustee or holder of any material indebtedness of
Borrower is necessary in connection with the execution and delivery of the First
Amendment by Borrower and Borrower's performance of its obligations under the
First Amendment and the Credit Agreement.
Exhibit 1 - 2
11. There is no provision of any indenture or material agreement for
borrowed money to which Borrower is a party or under which Borrower is
obligated, and of which I am aware, after causing to be conducted such legal and
factual examinations and inquiries and causing to be conducted such discussion
with and obtaining such certificates or other confirmations from officers and
other employees of Borrower as I considered appropriate in the circumstances
which would be contravened by the execution and delivery of the First Amendment
by Borrower or by the performance by Borrower of its obligations under the First
Amendment and the Credit Agreement.
12. To my knowledge, after causing to be conducted such legal and factual
examination and inquiries and causing to be conducted such discussions with and
obtaining such certificates or other confirmations from officers and other
employees of Borrower as I considered appropriate in the circumstances, there is
no judgment, decree or order of any court or governmental agency binding on
Borrower which would be contravened by the execution and delivery of the First
Amendment and the Notes by Borrower and Borrower's performance of its
obligations under the First Amendment, the Credit Agreement and the Notes.
13. To my knowledge, after causing to be conducted such legal and factual
examinations and inquiries and obtaining certificates or other confirmations
from officers and employees of Borrower as I considered appropriate in the
circumstances, except as set forth in Attachment 1 hereto, there is no claim,
suit, action or proceeding pending or threatened against Borrower before any
court or governmental agency in which there is a specific claim, including
environmental matters, in excess of $75,000,000.
The opinion expressed in paragraph 6 is subject to the following
limitations, qualifications, exceptions and assumptions:
(a) the enforcement of the First Amendment, the Credit Agreement and
the Notes may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium or other similar laws or by equitable principles relating to or
limiting the rights or creditors generally;
(b) the use of the term enforceable shall not imply any opinion as to
the availability of equitable remedies;
(c) I advise you that a California court may not strictly enforce
certain covenants contained in the First Amendment and the Credit Agreement
or allow acceleration of the maturity of the indebtedness thereunder if it
concludes that such enforcement or acceleration would be unreasonable under
the then existing circumstances. I do believe, however, that subject to the
limitations expressed elsewhere in this opinion, enforcement or
acceleration would be available if an Event of Default occurs as a result
of a material breach of a material covenant contained in the First
Amendment or the Credit Agreement. Further, certain rights, remedies and
waivers contained in the Credit Agreement may be limited or rendered
ineffective by applicable California laws or judicial decisions governing
such provisions, but such laws or judicial decisions do not render the
Credit Agreement invalid as a whole;
Exhibit 1 - 3
(d) The effect of California court decisions, invoking statutes or
principles of equity, which have held that certain covenants and provisions
of agreements are unenforceable where (i) the breach of such covenants or
provisions imposes restrictions or burdens upon the debtor, including the
acceleration of indebtedness due under debt instruments, and it cannot be
demonstrated that the enforcement of such restrictions or burdens is
reasonably necessary for the protection of the creditor, or (ii) the
creditors enforcement of such covenants or provisions under the
circumstances would violate the creditors implied covenant of good faith
and fair dealing;
(e) The unenforceability under certain circumstances under California
or federal law or court decisions, of provisions expressly or by
implication waiving broadly or vaguely stated rights, unknown future
rights, defenses to obligations or rights granted by law, where such
waivers are against public policy or prohibited by laws;
(f) The unenforceability under certain circumstances of provisions to
the effect that rights or remedies are not exclusive, that every right or
remedy is cumulative and may be exercised in addition to or with any other
right or remedy, that election of a particular remedy or remedies does not
preclude recourse to one or more other remedies or that failure to exercise
or delay in exercising rights or remedies will not operate as a waiver of
any such right or remedy;
(g) The effect of Section 1717 of the California Civil Code, which
provides that, where a contract permits one party to the contract to
recover attorneys' fees, the prevailing party in any action to enforce any
provision of the contract shall be entitled to recover its reasonable
attorneys' fees;
(h) The unenforceability under certain circumstances of provisions
indemnifying a party against liability for its own wrongful or negligent
acts or where such indemnification is contrary to the public policy or
prohibited by laws; and
(i) The enforceability under certain circumstances of provisions
imposing penalties, forfeitures, late payment charges or any increase in
interest rate upon delinquency in payment or the occurrence of a default.
To the extent that the obligations of Borrower may be dependent on such
matters, I assume for purposes of this opinion that each of the Banks is duly
incorporated or organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws
of its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization; that each of the Banks is
duly qualified to engage in the transactions covered by this opinion; that the
First Amendment and the Credit Agreement have been duly authorized, executed and
delivered by each of the Banks and that the First Amendment and the Credit
Agreement Constitute the valid and binding obligation of each of the Banks,
enforceable in accordance with their terms; and that each of the Banks has the
requisite corporate or organizational and legal power and authority to own its
properties, to carry on its business as now being conducted and to perform its
obligations under the First Amendment and the Credit Agreement, including,
without limitation, to make the loans under the Credit Agreement. I am not
expressing any opinion as to the effect of or the compliance by any Bank with
any state or
Exhibit 1 - 4
federal laws or regulations applicable to the transactions because of the nature
of its respective business.
This opinion is rendered to the Banks and the Administrative Agent and is
solely for their benefit in connection with the above transaction. This opinion
may not be relied upon by the Banks or Administrative Agent for any other
purpose, or furnished to, quoted to or relied upon by any other person, firm or
corporation for any purpose without prior written consent.
Very truly yours,
[Assistant General Counsel]
