otherwise require, upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Term Loan

Additional Term Loan Commitment.
SUBPART 1.3 Article I of the Credit Agreement is amended by inserting the
following defined terms in their appropriate alphabetical location therein:
"Additional Term Loan Commitment" shall mean the commitment of any Lender,
established pursuant to Section 2.01, to make Additional Term Loans to the

SUBPART 1.4 Section 2.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended in its
entirety to read as follows (for reference, the portions of Section 2.01 amended
hereby are italicized):
"Subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the
representations and warranties herein set forth, each Lender agrees,
severally and not jointly, (a) if such Lender has a Term Loan
Commitment, to make a Term Loan to the Borrowers on the Restatement
Date in a principal amount not to exceed its Term Loan Commitment in
effect on such date, (b) if such Lender has a Revolving Credit
Commitment, to make Revolving Loans to the Borrowers, at any time and
from time to time on or after the Closing Date and until the earlier of
the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and the termination of the Revolving
Credit Commitment of such Lender in accordance with the terms hereof,
in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not
result in such Lender's Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding such
Lender's Revolving Credit Commitment, and (c) if such Lender has an
Incremental Term Loan Commitment, to make Incremental Term Loans to the
Borrowers, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed its
Incremental Term Loan Commitment. Within the limits set forth in clause
(b) of the preceding sentence and subject to the terms, conditions and
limitations set forth herein, the Borrowers may borrow, pay or prepay
and reborrow Revolving Loans. Amounts paid or prepaid in respect of
Term Loans may not be reborrowed. The Borrowers and the Revolving
Credit Lenders acknowledge the making of Revolving Loans prior to the
Restatement Date and agree that, to the extent outstanding on the
Restatement Date, such Revolving Loans shall continue to be outstanding
pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents. Subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon
the representations and warranties herein set forth, each Increasing
Term Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, to make Additional Term
Loans on the Second Amendment Effective Date to the Borrowers in a
principal amount not to exceed its Additional Term Loan Commitment in
effect on the Second Amendment Effective Date. The Additional Term
Loans made by the Increasing Term Lenders (i) shall be "Term Loans" and
part of the "Obligations" for all purposes, in each case, together with
the Term Loans made on the Restatement Date and (ii) shall be "Secured
Parties", pari passu with all other Secured Parties. Automatically upon
the Increasing Term Lenders making the Additional Term Loans, the
Administrative Agent shall adjust its book and records to reflect the
pro-rata allocation of all Term Loans outstanding as of the close of
business on the Second Amendment Effective Date among Term Lenders
according to their respective Term Loan Commitment in effect on such
date. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that the Administrative
Agent may take any and all action as may be reasonably necessary to
ensure that the Additional Term Loans are included in each Borrowing of
outstanding Term Loans on a pro rata basis. This may be accomplished at
the discretion of the Administrative Agent by requiring each
outstanding Eurodollar Term Borrowing to be converted into an ABR Term
Borrowing on the date of the making of the Additional Term Loans, or by
allocating a portion of each Additional Term Loan to each outstanding
Eurodollar Term Borrowing on a pro rata basis, even though as a result
thereof such Additional Term Loan may effectively have a shorter
Interest Period than the Term Loans included in the Borrowing of which
they are a part (and notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement that would prohibit such an initial Interest Period). Any
conversion of Eurodollar Term Loans to ABR Term Loans required by the
preceding sentence shall be subject to Section 2.16."
SUBPART 1.5 Section 2.11(a) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by
replacing the parenthetical in the last sentence thereof in its entirety to read
as follows:
"(as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Section 2.01, 2.12,
2.13(f) and 2.24(d))"
SUBPART 1.6 Section 5.04(f) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended in
its entirety to read as follows:
"(f) concurrently with any delivery of financial statements under
paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, a certificate in the form of Exhibit
I (a "Compliance Certificate") of the Financial Officer (i) certifying that
no Event of Default or Default has occurred or, if such an Event of Default
or Default has occurred, specifying the nature and extent thereof and any
corrective action taken or proposed to be taken with respect thereto and
(ii) setting forth computations in detail reasonably satisfactory to the
Agents demonstrating compliance with the covenants contained in Sections
6.01(c), 6.01(f), 6.01(g), 6.01(h), 6.01(i), 6.01(j), 6.01(k), 6.01(l),
6.04(d), 6.04(h), 6.04(k), 6.04(p), 6.05(b), 6.06, 6.07(d), 6.14(b), 6.08
(in the case of paragraph (a)), 6.09, 6.10, 6.11, 6.12 and 6.13, and, in
the case of a certificate delivered with the financial statements required
by paragraph (a) above, setting forth the Borrower's calculation of Excess
Cash Flow;"
SUBPART 1.7 Exhibit I of the of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by
(i) deleting the phrase "[KPMG LLP] [independent public accountants]" from
clause (a) of the Annual Compliance Certificate located therein and replacing it
with the term "Borrower" and (ii) deleting the phrase "[KPMG LLP,] [independent
public accountants]" from the signature block of the Annual Compliance
Certificate located therein and replacing it with the phrase "[certifying
Financial Officer]".
SUBPART 1.8 Section 6.13 of the Credit Agreement is amended in its entirety
to read as follows:
"SECTION 6.13. Asset Coverage Ratio. Permit, as of the date of each
Credit Event and as of the last day of each fiscal quarter of the Borrower,
the ratio of (a) the Net Value of Eligible Accounts Receivables (after
giving pro forma effect to the acquisition of any Eligible Accounts
Receivable during such fiscal quarter) on such date to (b) the Revolving
Credit Exposure on such date to be less than 1.10 to 1.0."
