WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 7.02 of the Subordinated Convertible Note Indenture, Holdings may elect, pursuant to the terms set forth therein, to cause the sole remedy for the first 365 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default (as defined in the Subordinated Convertible Note Indenture) for Holdings failure to comply with its obligations under Section 5.02 of such indenture to be the right of the holder or holders of such Indebtedness to receive additional interest at an annual rate equal to 0.50% of the principal amount of the Subordinated Convertible Notes (the “Additional Interest Election”);
WHEREAS, (a) Holdings has notified the Administrative Agent that Holdings shall make the Additional Interest Election in connection with the Event of Default arising from its failure to comply with Section 5.02 of the Subordinated Convertible Note Indenture and, in connection therewith, the Borrowers have requested that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree to amend the Credit Agreement to provide for (i) an extension of the Limited Waiver, subject to certain conditions and (ii) to the extent that the Additional Interest Election is prohibited by Section 6.08(b) and Section 6.11(a) of the Credit Agreement, a waiver of Section 6.08(b) and Section 6.11(a) of the Credit Agreement on a limited basis with respect to the Additional Interest Election, and (b) Holdings has informed the Administrative Agent of, and has requested that the Required Lenders waive, certain Defaults or Events of Default arising under clauses (c) and (e) of Article VII of the Credit Agreement to the extent, and solely to the extent, such Defaults or Events of Default have arisen due to (i) the failure by Holdings to deliver financial statements for the fiscal years 2008 through 2012 (and the related reports of its independent registered public accounting firm) and the interim periods during those years, and the financial statements as of, as well as for, the three fiscal months ended March 29, 2013, and the six fiscal months ended June 28, 2013, that presented fairly in all material respects the financial condition and results of operations of Holdings and its consolidated Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP consistently

(c)    to the extent, if any, that the Additional Interest Election is prohibited by Section 6.08(b) and Section 6.11(a) of the Credit Agreement, Section 6.08(b) and Section 6.11(a) of the Credit Agreement solely with respect to the Additional Interest Election.
3.    Conditions to Effectiveness. The amendment to the Credit Agreement set forth in Section 1 above and the waiver set forth in Section 2 above shall become effective as of the date hereof upon:
