Re: First Amendment to Private Shelf Agreement
------------------------------------------
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Reference is made to the Private Shelf Agreement (the "Agreement")
dated as of June 29, 2001 between XXXXXX NAVIGATION COMPANY, INC., on the one
hand, and THE PRUDENTIAL INSURANCE COMPANY OF AMERICA and each Prudential
Affiliate (as defined in the Agreement) which has or may become bound by certain
provisions of the Agreement, on the other hand.
Pursuant to the request of the Company and paragraph 11C of the
Agreement, the undersigned and the Company hereby agree that the Agreement shall
be amended as follows:
1. Paragraph 1 is amended by deleting the reference therein to
"$50,000,000" and substituting therefore a reference to
"$65,000,000."
2. Paragraph 2B(2) is amended by deleting the existing text of
clause (i) thereof in its entirety and substituting therefore
a reference to "July 12, 2007."
3. Clause (ii) of paragraph 3A is amended by adding the following
phrase immediately after the word "Agreement" appearing in the
second line of text thereof: ", the first amendment to this
Agreement."
4. The defined term "Prudential" appearing in paragraph 10B (and
on the first page of the Agreement) is amended and restated in
its entirety as follows:
"Prudential" shall mean Prudential Investment Management, Inc.
The Company and the undersigned hereby acknowledge and agree that the
current Available Facility Amount (as such term is defined in the Agreement) is
$50,000,000.
The foregoing amendments to the Agreement shall be effective upon
Prudential's receipt of (i) an original counterpart of this letter agreement as
executed on behalf of the Company and (ii) a wire transfer of immediately
available funds in the amount of $50,000 in payment of Prudential's structuring
fee. Both such conditions must be satisfied on or before July 30, 2004.
Sincerely,
THE PRUDENTIAL INSURANCE COMPANY OF AMERICA
