The Company, Holdings, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent are party to a Credit and Guaranty Agreement dated as of March 3, 2011 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Credit Agreement”).  The Parties wish to amend the Credit Agreement in certain respects, and accordingly, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

2.1.  General References.  References in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement” (and indirect references such as “hereunder”, “hereby”, “herein” and “hereof”) shall be deemed to be references to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby.

 

2.2.  Financial Officer Certification.  The defined term “Financial Officer Certification” in Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement shall be amended by deleting the word “Company” wherever contained therein and inserting in replacement thereof the word “Holdings”.

“Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.1 to the contrary, neither Holdings nor the Company shall be deemed to have failed to comply with any of Holdings or the Company’s agreements set forth under this Section 5.1 for purposes of clause (4) under Section 8.1 until 30 days after the date any report required to be provided under this Section 5.1 is due, and any failure to comply with this Section 5.1 shall be automatically cured when the Company or Holdings provides all required reports or files all required reports with the Commission.”

 

2.9.  Events of Default.  Clause (4) of Section 8.1 shall be amended by deleting the words “the Company” and inserting in replacement thereof the word “Holdings”.

 

Section 3.  Representations and Warranties.  The Company represents and warrants to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent that (a) the representations and warranties set forth in Section 4 of the Credit Agreement are true and correct in all material respects or, with respect to representations and warranties that are subject to a Material Adverse Effect qualification, in all respects, as of the date hereof and on the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date (as defined below) (except, in each case, to the extent such representations specifically relate to an earlier date in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects or in all respects, as applicable, on and as of such earlier date) as if made on and as of such date and as if each reference in said Section 4 to “this Agreement” included reference to this Amendment No. 1 and (b) immediately after giving effect to this Amendment No. 1, no Default or Event of Default shall exist or be continuing.

Section 5.  Limited Waiver; Reservation of Rights.  Except as herein provided, the Credit Agreement shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect.  Nothing herein shall constitute a waiver of, or any agreement to provide a waiver of, any existing or future Default or Event of Default.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders reserve all of their rights, powers, privileges and remedies under or in respect of the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents, at law, in equity or otherwise in connection with the obligations owing by the Company thereunder, and all guarantees of Holdings and certain of its Subsidiaries therefor, all of which are expressly reserved.  This Amendment No. 1 shall not be deemed or otherwise construed to be a commitment or any other undertaking or expression of any willingness to engage in any further discussion with the Company or any other person, firm or corporation with respect to any waiver, amendment, modification or any other change to the Credit Agreement or the other Credit Documents or any rights or remedies arising in favor of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under or with respect to any such documents; or to be a waiver of, or consent to or a modification or amendment of, any other term or condition of any other agreement by and among the Parties.
