A. The Borrowers and the Bank have entered into a Revolving Credit
Agreement dated as of July 22, 1994, as amended by a First Amendment to
Revolving Credit Agreement dated as of January 30, 1995 and by a Second
Amendment to Revolving Credit Agreement and to Revolving Note dated as of July
20, 1995 (as amended, the "Credit Agreement"), pursuant to which the Bank,
subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, agreed to make revolving
advances to the Borrowers in the aggregate amount of up to $2,000,000.
B. The Borrowers' joint and several obligation to repay the revolving
advances made by the Bank under the Credit Agreement is evidenced by the
Borrowers' Revolving Note dated January 30, 1995, payable to the Bank's order in
the original principal amount of $2,000,000 (the "First Replacement Revolving
Note"), issued in substitution for, and in replacement of, but not in payment
of, the Borrowers' revolving note dated July 22, 1994, payable to the Bank's
order in the original principal amount of $5,000,000. As of September 25, 1995,
the outstanding principal balance of the First Replacement Revolving Note was
$1,744,495.68 and interest thereon has been paid through September 1, 1995.
C. The Borrowers have requested that the Bank increase the Commitment
Amount of the Bank under the Credit Agreement from $2,000,000 to $3,500,000.
D. The Bank is willing to grant the Borrowers' request subject to the terms
and conditions hereinafter set forth.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Definitions. All capitalized terms used in this Third Amendment, unless
specifically defined herein, shall have the meanings given to such terms in the
Credit Agreement.
2. Amendment of Existing Definitions. Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement
is hereby amended by deleting the existing definition of "Commitment Amount" and
by substituting therefor the following new definition:
"`Commitment Amount' means $3,500,000."
3. Additional Definitions. Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby
amended by adding the following new definitions of "First Replacement Revolving
Note" and "Third Amendment" in the appropriate alphabetical location:
"`First Replacement Revolving Note' means that certain promissory note
issued by the Borrowers, payable to the order of the Bank, in the principal
amount of $2,000,000, dated as of January 30, 1995, which was issued in
substitution for, and in replacement of, not in payment of the Borrowers'
revolving note dated as of July 22, 1994, payable to the Bank's order in
the original principal amount of $5,000,000."
"`Third Amendment' means that certain Third Amendment to Revolving
Credit Agreement dated as of October 2, 1995, between the Bank and the
Borrowers."
4. Advances. Section 2.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to read
as follows:
"Section 2.1 The Advances. The Bank agrees, on the terms and
conditions here set forth, to make Advances to the Borrowers from time to
time during the period from the date when all of the conditions set forth
in Section 3.1 hereof are met (the "Closing Date") to and including the
Commitment Termination Date in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any
time outstanding the Borrowing Base; provided, however, in no event shall
the Borrowers request, nor shall the Bank be obligated to make, any Advance
if, after giving effect to such Advance, the sum of the aggregate
outstanding Advances under this Agreement plus the aggregate outstanding
Advances and the L/C Amount (as defined therein) under that certain
Revolving Credit Agreement dated as of January 30, 1995, as amended,
between the K-Tel, Inc. and the Bank, would exceed $5,500,000. Within the
above limits, the Borrowers may borrow, prepay pursuant to Section 2.7 and
re-borrow under this Section 2.1. The Borrowers' obligation to pay the
Advances made by the Bank shall be evidenced by a single promissory note of
the Borrowers, dated as of the date of the Third Amendment, payable to the
order of the Bank appropriately completed in substantially the form of
Exhibit A attached to the Third Amendment, as the same may be renewed,
extended, amended or any note shall be issued in substitution therefor from
time to time (the "Note"). The Note has been issued in substitution for,
and in replacement of, but not in payment of, the First Replacement
Revolving Note. The Note shall bear interest in accordance with Section 2.3
hereof and principal of and interest on the Note shall be due and payable
as provided in Section 2.5 hereof."
