therein);
WHEREAS, the parties desire to amend the Credit Agreement to
modify certain provisions thereof;
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises contained herein
and other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are
hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
SECTION 1. Amendment to Credit Agreement.
(a) Amendment of Section 5.2. Section 5.2 of the Credit Agreement is
hereby amended by deleting the word "and" at the end of clause (g) thereof and
deleting clause (h) thereof and inserting the following in its place:
(h) promptly after the delivery thereof to any Person
(other than an Affiliate), any audited financial statements of
the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (together with the
report, if any, related thereto) which are not otherwise required
to be delivered under Section 5.1; and
(i) promptly, such additional financial and other
information as any Lender may from time to time reasonably
request.
(c) Amendment of Section 6.3. Section 6.3(i) of the Credit Agreement is
hereby deleted in its entirety and the following inserted in its place:
(i) other Liens securing Purchase Money Indebtedness and
other Indebtedness incurred after the Closing Date, so long as
the aggregate principal amount of such Purchase Money
Indebtedness and other Indebtedness does not exceed $25,000,000;
provided that any Liens securing such Indebtedness shall be
limited to assets (and not any Capital Stock) which are owned by
the Borrower or a Subsidiary but not subject to any Lien in favor
of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders.
SECTION 2. Representations and Warranties of the Borrower. The
Borrower represents and warrants that, after giving effect to this Amendment,
all the representations and
warranties of the Borrower contained in Section 3 of the Credit Agreement shall
be true in all material respects.
SECTION 3. Conditions to Effectiveness. This Amendment shall be
effective when the Administrative Agent shall have received:
(a) counterparts hereof executed by duly authorized officers of
the Borrower and by duly authorized signatories of the Required Lenders;
(b) a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower
certifying that (i) this Amendment has been duly authorized, (ii) all
representations and warranties are true as of the effective date hereof,
and (iii) prior to and after giving effect to this Amendment, no Default
or Event of Default shall have occurred which is continuing;
(c) a consent from each Guarantor not a party hereto in the form
attached as EXHIBIT A; and
(d) such other documents and certificates as the Administrative
Agent may request.
SECTION 4. Reference to and Effect in the Loan Documents. (a)
Upon the effectiveness of this Amendment, each reference in the Credit Agreement
to "this Agreement", "hereunder", "hereof" or words of like import referring to
the Credit Agreement, and each reference in the other Loan Documents to "the
Credit Agreement", "thereunder", "thereof" or words of like import referring to
the Credit Agreement, shall mean and be a reference to the Credit Agreement as
amended hereby.
(b) Except as specifically amended above, the Credit Agreement
and all other Loan Documents are and shall continue to be in full force and
effect and are hereby in all respects ratified and confirmed. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the Loan Documents and all the Collateral
described therein do and shall continue to secure the payment of all obligations
of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan
Documents, in each case as amended hereby.
(c) The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment
shall not, except as expressly provided herein, operate as a waiver of any
right, power or remedy of any Lender or the Administrative Agent under any of
the Loan Documents, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of any of the Loan
Documents.
SECTION 5. Execution in Counterparts. This Amendment may be
executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in
separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be
deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute but
one and the same agreement.
SECTION 6. Governing Law. This Amendment shall be governed by,
and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

Amendment to be executed as of the date first above written.
