WHEREAS, the Company intends to restate its consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013 (the “2013 Annual Financial Statements”) as a result of certain errors described in the Current Report on Form 8-K dated May 5, 2014 (the “8-K”);
 
 
WHEREAS, as described in the 8-K, such errors may also have resulted in the Borrower’s representations and warranties with respect to the quarterly financial statements delivered in 2013, (the “2013 Quarterly Financial Statements,” and together with the 2013 Annual Financial Statements, the “2013 Financial Statements”) pursuant to Section 5.01(d)(i) of the Credit Agreement having been incorrect, or proven to have been incorrect, when made or deemed made;
 
 
WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested that certain Defaults or Events of Default under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to the 2013 Financial Statements  be waived as set forth herein; and
 
 
WHEREAS, the Lenders are willing to agree to such waiver on the terms set forth herein;
 
 
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants contained herein, the undersigned hereby agree as follows:
 
 
I.           Defined Terms.  Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit Agreement.
 
 
II.           Waiver.  The Lenders hereby waive any Default or Event of Default arising from (i) any representation or warranty made or deemed made by or on behalf of the Borrower in or relating to the 2013 Financial Statements, or in any certificate furnished in connection with the 2013 Financial Statements, having been incorrect, or proven to have been incorrect, when made or deemed made, (ii) any request for a Revolving Credit Advance or issuance, renewal, amendment, increase or extension of a Letter of Credit after the occurrence and during the continuance of any such Default or Event of Default, (iii) any failure to comply with any covenant or other obligation under Section 5.01(f) of the Credit Agreement, (iv) any failure to pay default interest as provided in Section 2.07(c) of the Credit Agreement after the occurrence of any such Event of Default, and (v) any failure to deliver the financial statements and other information required to be delivered by Section 5.01(d)(i) of the Credit Agreement for the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2014 (the “2014 First Quarter Financial Statements”) prior to August 30, 2014 (the “Extended Delivery Date”) (in each case in (i) through (v) above, solely as related to or associated with the matters and events described in the 8-K); provided that this Waiver shall cease to apply if the restated 2013 Annual Financial Statements and the 2014 First Quarter Financial Statements, together with the respective certificates required by Section 5.01(d)(i) and (ii) of the Credit Agreement, are not delivered to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the Extended Delivery Date
 
 
III.           Effectiveness of Waiver. This Waiver shall become effective as of the date first written above (the “Waiver Effective Date”) upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of duly executed counterparts to this Waiver from the Borrower and the Required Banks.
 
 
IV.           Representations and Warranties. The Borrower hereby represents and warrants that (a) after giving effect to this Waiver, each of the representations and warranties in the Credit Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects as if made on and as of the Waiver Effective Date (unless such representations and warranties relate to a specific earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date) and (b) after giving effect to this Waiver, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.
 
 
V.           Expenses.  The Borrower shall pay all reasonable and invoiced fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent related to this Waiver.
 
 
VI.           Continuing Effect of the Credit Agreement.  This Waiver is limited solely to the matters set forth herein and shall not constitute an amendment or waiver of any other provision of the Credit Agreement not expressly referred to herein or be construed as a waiver or consent to any further or future action on the part of any Loan Party that would require the consent of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent. Except as expressly waived hereby, the provisions of the Credit Agreement are and shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed. This Waiver is a Loan Document.
 
 
VII.           Governing Law.  This Waiver shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
