On August 2, 2011, McCormick & Schmick Acquisition Corp. and The Boathouse Restaurants of Canada, Inc. (the “Borrowers”), each a subsidiary of McCormick & Schmick’s Seafood Restaurants, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Fourth Amendment to Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”) by and among the Borrowers; Bank of America, N.A. as Administrative Agent; Bank of America, N.A. and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. as the lenders; which amends the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of December 28, 2007 (as amended and in effect from time to time the “Credit Facility”). The Amendment redefines “Consolidated EBITDA” for any fiscal period through FQ4 2011 by adding to that amount certain one-time charges consisting of advisory, legal, bonus and other similar expenses incurred during such period in connection with the unsolicited tender offer, potential sales process and broad evaluation of other strategic alternatives, up to $2,500,000 in the aggregate. The Credit Facility is guaranteed by the Company and all its U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries. Loans under the Credit Facility are secured by a pledge of the capital stock of the Company’s subsidiaries, subject to certain limitations relating to the capital stock of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries.
