Capitalized Terms. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit Agreement, unless the context shall otherwise require.

1.1. Amended Definitions. The definitions of “Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio,” “Interest Period,” “Net Cash Proceeds” and “Preferred Stock” as set forth in Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement are hereby amended in their entirety to read as follows:
“Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio”: For any period of determination, the ratio of
(a) Adjusted EBITDA, minus income taxes paid in cash, plus cash income tax refunds received, minus Net Capital Expenditures paid in cash, minus Restricted Payments paid in cash (other than (i) Restricted Payments from one Borrower to another Borrower, (ii) stock repurchases made pursuant to Section 6.18(e) and (iii) cash dividends made pursuant to Section 6.18(f)),
to
(b) Net Interest Expense, plus all scheduled principal payments in respect of the Term Loans and Converted Term Loans, plus all other principal payments required with respect to Total Liabilities bearing interest (whether actual or imputed) excluding (i) principal payments made under Section 2.2(a), 2.2(d), 2.6.3, 2.6.4 or 2.6.6 of this Agreement and (ii) any earn-out payments required to be made in connection with the ACT Acquisition, plus all payments made pursuant to Acquisition Services Agreements, plus cash dividends made pursuant to Section 6.18(f),

“Interest Period”: With respect to a Eurocurrency Advance, a period of one week or one, two, three or six months, in each case commencing on a Business Day selected by the Borrowers’ Agent pursuant to this Agreement. A one week Interest Period shall end one week following such date; each other Interest Period shall end on the day that corresponds numerically to such date one, two, three or six months thereafter, as applicable, provided, however, that if there is no such numerically corresponding day in such next, second, third or sixth succeeding month, such Interest Period shall end on the last Business Day of such next, second, third or sixth succeeding month. If an Interest Period would otherwise end on a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall end on the next succeeding Business Day, provided, however, that if said next succeeding Business Day falls in a new calendar month, such Interest Period (other than a one week Interest Period) shall end on the immediately preceding Business Day.
“Net Cash Proceeds”: The excess of (a) the sum of the cash and cash equivalents received in connection with the issuance of Permitted Convertible Debt or Preferred Stock, as applicable, less (b) the underwriting discounts and commissions, fees and expenses in connection with any amendment to this Agreement required at that time in connection therewith, and other reasonable and customary out-of-pocket expenses, incurred by Xxxxx in connection therewith. For the avoidance of doubt, the issuance of Permitted Convertible Debt or Preferred Stock in satisfaction of Xxxxx’x obligations under Section 7.7 of the DiscoverReady LLC Agreement, as it may be amended from time to time in accordance with this Agreement, shall not be deemed an issuance for cash or cash equivalents.
2
“Preferred Stock”: The Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per share, of Xxxxx, the Series B Cumulative Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per share, of Xxxxx, and each other series of preferred stock issued from time to time by Xxxxx.
1.2. Minimum Amount. Section 2.5 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended in its entirety to read as follows:
2.5. Minimum Amount of Each Advance. Each Eurocurrency Advance shall be in the minimum amount of $1,000,000 and each Base Rate Advance (other than an Advance to repay Swing Line Loans) shall be in the minimum amount of $500,000; provided, however, that any Base Rate Advance in respect of a Revolving Loan may be in the amount of the Available Aggregate Revolving Commitment.
1.3. Mandatory Prepayments. Section 2.6 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by amending Section 2.6.5 and adding a new Section 2.6.6, in each case to read as follows:

The Borrowers may at any time pay, without penalty or premium, all outstanding Swing Line Loans, or any portion of the outstanding Swing Line Loans, with notice from the Borrowers’ Agent to the Administrative Agent and the Swing Line Lender by 12:00 p.m. (Minneapolis time) on the date of repayment; provided that such notice shall not be required in connection with a daily sweep account with the Administrative Agent. The Borrowers may from time to time pay, subject to the payment of any funding indemnification amounts required by Section 3.4 but without penalty or premium, all outstanding Eurocurrency Advances, or, in a minimum aggregate amount of $1,000,000, any portion of the outstanding Eurocurrency Advances upon two Business Days’ prior notice from the Borrowers’ Agent to the Administrative Agent.
2.6.6 Mandatory Prepayment for Preferred Stock. Upon the issuance of any Preferred Stock, the Borrowers shall prepay the Loans with the Net Cash Proceeds received therefrom immediately upon receipt thereof by Xxxxx or any other Borrower as follows: (a) the first $15,000,000 of Net Cash Proceeds (determined on an aggregate basis for all issuances) shall be applied to the prepayment of the outstanding Term Loans and then to the prepayment of Converted Term Loans, in each case to the remaining scheduled principal payments thereof in inverse order of maturity, and (b) fifty percent (50%) of all Net Cash Proceeds in excess of $15,000,000 (determined on an aggregate basis for all issuances) shall be applied to the prepayment of the outstanding Term Loans and then to the prepayment of Converted Term Loans, in each case to the
3
remaining scheduled principal payments thereof in inverse order of maturity, and then ratably to the outstanding Revolving Loans with no reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Commitment.

2.8. Conversion and Continuation of Outstanding Advances. Base Rate Advances (other than Swing Line Loans) shall continue as Base Rate Advances unless and until such Base Rate Advances are converted into Eurocurrency Advances pursuant to this Section or are repaid in accordance with Section 2.6. Each Eurocurrency Advance denominated in Dollars shall continue as a Eurocurrency Advance until the end of the then applicable Interest Period therefor, at which time such Eurocurrency Advance shall be automatically converted into a Base Rate Advance unless (x) such Eurocurrency Advance is or was repaid in accordance with Section 2.6 or (y) the Borrowers’ Agent has given the Administrative Agent a Conversion/Continuation Notice (as defined below) requesting that, at the end of such Interest Period, such Eurocurrency Advance continue as a Eurocurrency Advance for the same or another Interest Period.
