Concurrently with the satisfaction of each of the conditions precedent described in the final paragraph hereof, the U.K. Borrower shall be thereupon released from all Obligations and each of the other Loan Parties shall be thereupon released from its Guaranty with respect to the Obligations of the U.K. Borrower. The Required Lenders hereby further waive any noncompliance by the Loan Parties with Section 7.12 of the Credit Agreement to the extent such noncompliance occurred or occurs as a result of the Loan Parties’ failure to cause Thoreau Holdings to become a Guarantor.

Furthermore, pursuant to Section 2.07 of the Credit Agreement, the Borrower hereby gives notice to the Administrative Agent that the Aggregate Revolving Commitments shall be permanently reduced to $350,000,000 concurrently with the satisfaction of each of the conditions precedent described in the final paragraph hereof, and the Required Lenders hereby agree to waive the requirement for such notice to be provided five Business Days prior to the date of such reduction.

The consent contained herein is a one-time consent and is expressly limited to the purposes and matters set forth herein.

The Credit Agreement shall remain in full force and effect according to its terms (as modified by this letter).

This letter may be executed by the parties hereto in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which shall constitute together but one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart by facsimile or other secure electronic format (.pdf) shall be as effective as an original. This letter shall become effective upon satisfaction of each of the following conditions precedent: (i) the Administrative Agent’s receipt of counterparts hereof duly executed by the Required Lenders and each of the Loan Parties, (ii) the Administrative Agent’s receipt of notice from the Company as required by Section 2.15(d) of the Credit Agreement of the U.K. Borrower’s termination of its status as a Foreign Borrower (and the Administrative Agent hereby agrees that such notice shall be permitted to be delivered less than 15 Business Days prior to its effectiveness), (iii) repayment by the U.K. Borrower in full of all outstanding Loans made to the U.K. Borrower and all other amounts payable on account of such Loans and (iv) payment of all documented fees and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses required to be paid upon the satisfaction of each of the conditions precedent described in this paragraph; provided, however, that the consent described in clause (y) of the second preceding paragraph shall be effective concurrently with the Company’s execution and delivery of the equity purchase agreement for the Thoreau Disposition subject solely to the satisfaction of foregoing clause (i) and payment of all documented fees and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses required to be paid on the date hereof. This letter is a Loan Document.
