FIRST AMENDMENT TO CREDIT AGREEMENT
THIS FIRST AMENDMENT TO CREDIT AGREEMENT, dated as of August 22, 2013, is among XXXXXXX & XXXXX, INCORPORATED, a Missouri corporation (the “Borrower”), the lenders party hereto and JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A. (the “Administrative Agent”).
The Borrower, the Administrative Agent and certain lenders have entered into that certain Credit Agreement dated as of August 19, 2011 (as amended herein and as may be further amended, modified, supplemented or restated, the “Agreement” and capitalized terms used in this Amendment, to the extent not otherwise defined herein, shall have the same meanings as in the Agreement, as amended hereby).
The Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the lenders party hereto now desire to amend the Agreement as herein set forth.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows effective as of the date hereof unless otherwise indicated:
ARTICLE 1.
Amendments
Section 1.1. Amendments to Section 1.01.
(a) The following new term, “First Amendment Effective Date”, is hereby added to Section 1.01 of the Agreement in the correct alphabetical order:
“First Amendment Effective Date” means August 22, 2013.
(b) The term “Commitment” in Section 1.01 of the Agreement is hereby amended by deleting therefrom the last two sentences thereof in their entirety and inserting the following in lieu thereof:
The amount of each Lender’s Commitment as of the First Amendment Effective Date is set forth on Schedule 2.01, in the Assignment and Assumption pursuant to which such Lender shall have assumed its Commitment or in the Increase Commitment Supplement pursuant to which such Lender shall have assumed or increased its Commitment, as applicable. As of the First Amendment Effective Date, the aggregate amount of the Lenders’ Commitments is $600,000,000.
(c) The term “Fixed Rate” in Section 1.01 of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following is inserted in lieu thereof:
“Fixed Rate” means, with respect to any Fixed Rate Borrowing (other than a Fixed Rate Borrowing denominated in Mexican Pesos, British Pounds Sterling or Canadian Dollars), the Available Currency in which it is denominated and the Interest Period therefor, the rate appearing on the Reference Page (as defined below in this definition) at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, two Business Days prior to the commencement of such Interest Period, as the rate for deposits denominated in such Available Currency with a maturity comparable to such Interest Period. In the event that such rate is not available at such time for any reason, then the “Fixed Rate” with respect to such Fixed Rate Borrowing, such Available Currency and such Interest Period shall be the rate at
FIRST AMENDMENT TO CREDIT AGREEMENT, Page 1
which deposits in the Dollar Equivalent amount of $1,000,000 denominated in such Available Currency and for a maturity comparable to such Interest Period are offered by the principal London office of the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds in the London or European (as determined by the Administrative Agent) interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, two Business Days prior to the commencement of such Interest Period. The “Fixed Rate” with respect to a Fixed Rate Borrowing denominated in Mexican Pesos with respect to each day during each Interest Period therefor shall be a rate of interest per annum equal to the Mexican Peso Negotiated Rate. For purposes hereof, the “Mexican Peso Negotiated Rate” means, with respect to a Fixed Rate Borrowing denominated in Mexican Pesos, for the relevant Interest Period, a rate per annum established by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. in its sole and absolute discretion, as last quoted to Borrower no later than 11:00 a.m., London time, three Business Days prior to the disbursement or renewal of such Fixed Rate Borrowing denominated in Mexican Pesos. The “Fixed Rate” with respect to a Fixed Rate Borrowing denominated in British Pounds Sterling with respect to the Interest Period therefor shall be the London interbank offer rate (LIBOR) administered by the British Bankers Association (or any other person which takes over the administration of that rate) as displayed on page LIBOR01 or LIBOR02 of the Reuters screen as at or about 11:00am London time on the first day of such Interest Period (or any replacement Reuters page which displays that rate) for a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period. The term “Reference Page” means, with respect to a currency, the page of the Reuters Group service providing rate quotations for deposits of such currency; provided that in the event the Applicable Rate does not appear on such service, the term “Reference Page” means the applicable page of such other comparable publicly available rate quoting service as may be selected by the Administrative Agent. For avoidance of doubt, the “Fixed Rate” with respect to a Fixed Rate Borrowing denominated in Canadian Dollars with respect to the Interest Period therefor shall be a rate of interest per annum equal to the CDOR Rate. For purposes hereof, the “CDOR Rate” means, with respect to any Interest Period, the average rate for bankers acceptances as administered by the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (or any other Person that takes over the administration of that rate) with a tenor equal to the relevant period displayed on CDOR01 page of the Reuters Monitor Service (or, in the event such rate does not appear on a Reuters page or screen, on any successor or substitute page on such screen or service that displays such rate, or on the appropriate page of such other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) at or about 10:15 a.m. (Toronto, Ontario time) on the first day of the applicable Interest Period. “Fixed Rate”, when used in reference to any Loan or Borrowing, refers to whether such Loan, or the Loans comprising such Borrowing, are bearing interest at a rate determined by reference to the Fixed Rate.
(d) The term “Maturity Date” in Section 1.01 of the Agreement is hereby amended by deleting from the first line thereof the reference to the date “August 19, 2016” and inserting in lieu thereof the date “August 19, 2017”.
Section 1.2. Schedule 2.01 to the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and the Schedule 2.01 attached hereto is inserted in lieu thereof.

This Amendment is binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, except the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender. Any assignment in violation of this Section 2.4 shall be void.
