Pursuant to the terms of the Forbearance Agreement, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders agreed that they will forbear, during the Forbearance Period (as defined below), from exercising rights and remedies (including enforcement and collection actions) with respect to or arising out of the events of default that occurred as a result of the Borrowers’ failure to comply with (i) the maximum consolidated leverage ratio covenant and (ii) the minimum interest coverage ratio covenant, in each case for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2014 (the “Specified Defaults”).

The forbearance period (the “Forbearance Period”) under the Forbearance Agreement will expire on the earliest to occur of: (i) the fifth business day after the Required Lenders provide notice to the agent under the ABL Credit Agreement (as defined below) of the occurrence of a default under the Forbearance Agreement or event of default under the Term Loan Agreement; (ii) the occurrence of any default or event of default under any of the ABL Loan Documents (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement) or the exercise of any rights or remedies or the taking of any action against any Loan Party or any subsidiary thereof under or in connection with the ABL Loan Documents or the documents governing the indebtedness of the Company with a principal amount above a certain threshold: (iii) the termination of the ABL Amendment No. 2 or any amendment or modification thereto that is adverse to the interests of the lenders; (iv) termination of the commitments under the ABL Credit Agreement; (v) the Loan Party’s entry into any debt financing arrangement (other than certain increased commitments under the ABL Credit Agreement) without the prior consent of the Required Lenders; and (vi) 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on June 30, 2014.

In the Forbearance Agreement, the Loan Parties agreed to cooperate with and provide certain information to the Administrative Agent and certain advisors to an ad hoc committee of lenders (the “Lender Committee Representatives”), including providing a long-term business plan by no later than June 30, 2014.

This amended definition of “Adjusted Availability” increases the Company’s liquidity.

ABL Amendment No. 2 provides that the collateral agent under the ABL Credit Agreement may exercise cash dominion over certain of the Borrowers’ and Guarantors’ deposit accounts whether or not an availability triggering event specified in the ABL Credit Agreement has occurred or is continuing. ABL Amendment No. 2 provides that the administrative agent under the ABL Credit Agreement is authorized to engage a financial advisor, at the Borrower’s expense, to review the Borrowers’ books and records, projections and budgets and information regarding the collateral.
