amended by deleting the first sentence thereof and replacing it with the
following:

shall in any event be effective without the written concurrence of Requisite
Lenders; provided that any such amendment, modification, termination, waiver or
consent which: reduces the principal amount of any of the Loans; changes in any
manner the definition of "Pro Rata Share" or the definition of "Requisite
Lenders"; changes in any manner any provision of this Agreement which, by its
terms, expressly requires the approval or concurrence of all Lenders; postpones
the scheduled final maturity date of any of the Loans (but not the date of any
scheduled installment of principal); postpones the date on which any interest or
any fees are payable; decreases the interest rate borne by any of the Loans
(other than any waiver of any increase in the interest rate applicable to any of
the Loans pursuant to subsection 2.2E) or the amount of any fees payable
hereunder; increases the maximum duration of Interest Periods permitted
hereunder; reduces the amount or postpones the due date of any amount payable in
respect of any Letter of Credit; extends the required expiration date of any

in Letters of Credit; releases any Lien granted in favor of Administrative Agent
with respect to all or substantially all of the Collateral; releases any
Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty, in each
case other than in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents (provided,
Express Online Inc. (Xxxx.Xxxxxxxx.xxx) shall be released from the Subsidiary
Guaranty executed by it on the Closing Date on such date as the Company shall
sell any or all of the capital stock of such Subsidiary Guarantor); or changes
in any manner the provisions contained in subsection 8.1 or this subsection 10.6
shall be effective only if evidenced by a writing signed by or on behalf of all
Lenders; provided, further, that no such amendment, modification, termination,
waiver or consent shall increase the Commitments of a Lender over the amount
hereof then in effect without the consent of such Lender; provided, further,
that if any matter described in the first proviso of this subsection 10.6A
relates only to (a) all Term Loans, the approval of all Term Lenders shall be
sufficient, (b) Tranche A Term Loans or Tranche B Term Loans, as the case may
be, the approval of all of the Lenders of the affected Term Loan shall be
sufficient; and (c) a Revolving Loan or Revolving Loan Commitment, the approval
of all Revolving Lenders shall be sufficient." SECTION TWO - Conditions to

original and all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the same
