Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the same meanings herein as set forth in the Credit Agreement.
WHEREAS, Company and Lenders desire to amend the Credit Agreement to (i) reduce the interest rate margins applicable to the Term Loans, (ii) provide for a premium to be paid to Lenders if the interest rate margins applicable to the Term Loans are further reduced under certain circumstances and (iii) make certain other amendments as set forth below:
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the agreements, provisions and covenants herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1.1 Amendments to Section 1: Definitions
A. Subsection 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding thereto the following definitions:
"'First Amendment' means that certain First Amendment to Credit Agreement, dated as of November 15, 2004, by and among Company, the Lenders signatory thereto and Administrative Agent."
"'First Amendment Effective Date' means November 15, 2004."
"'Repricing Prepayment' has the meaning set forth in subsection 2.2I."
1.2 Amendments to Section 2: Amounts and Terms of Commitments and Loans
A. Subsection 2.2A(i) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting such subsection in its entirety and substituting the following therefor:
"(i) Subject to the provisions of subsections 2.2E, 2.2G and 2.7, the Term Loans shall bear interest through maturity as follows:
(a) if a Base Rate Loan, then at the sum of the Base Rate plus 1.25% per annum; or
(b) if a Eurodollar Rate Loan, then at the sum of the Eurodollar Rate plus 2.25% per annum
; provided that for the period from the first Business Day after delivery of the Pricing Certificate for the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2004, to the First Amendment Effective Date, the applicable margin for Term Loans shall be the applicable margin as in effect immediately prior to the First Amendment Effective Date and, commencing on the First Amendment Effective Date, the applicable margin for Term Loans shall be determined as provided for above."
B. Subsection 2.2A(iii) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by (i) deleting the phrase "and Term Loans" contained therein and (ii) deleting the phrase "(subject to the provisions of the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii))" and replacing such phrase with the phrase "(subject to the provisions of the foregoing clause (ii))."
C. Subsection 2.2 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following subsection 2.2I at the end thereof:
"I. Term Loan Repricing Protection. In the event that, prior to the first anniversary of the First Amendment Effective Date, any Lender with Term Loan Exposure receives a Repricing Prepayment (as defined below), then, at the time thereof, Company shall pay to such Lender a prepayment premium equal to 1.00% of the amount of such Repricing Prepayment. As used herein, with respect to any Lender with Term Loan Exposure, a "Repricing Prepayment" is the amount of principal of the Term Loans of such Lender that is either (a) prepaid by Company pursuant to subsection 2.4B substantially concurrently with the incurrence by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries of new term loans under this Agreement (or pursuant to any amendment, amendment and restatement or other modification of this Agreement) that have interest rate margins lower than the interest rate margins, as determined in accordance with subsection 2.2A(i), then in effect for the Term Loans so prepaid or (b) received by such Lender as a result of the mandatory assignment of such Term Loans in the circumstances described in subsection 2.9 following the failure of such Lender to consent to an amendment of this Agreement (other than the First Amendment) that would have the effect of reducing any of the interest rate margins provided for in subsection 2.2A(i) applicable to such Term Loans; provided however that such Repricing Prepayment shall not include any prepayment made in connection with (i) the repayment of all of the principal and interest due on Loans under the Credit Agreement, (ii) the termination of all of the Revolving Loan Commitments under the Credit Agreement and (iii) the payment of all other obligations due and owing under the Loan Documents."
A. Schedule to Credit Agreement. Schedule 5.6 attached to the Credit Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with Schedule 5.6 attached hereto.
This Amendment shall become effective only upon the satisfaction of all of the following conditions precedent (the date of satisfaction of such conditions being referred to herein as the "First Amendment Effective Date"):
