Agent”).

RECITALS:

WHEREAS, Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement permits the Credit Agreement to be

amended from time to time by the Borrower and the Lenders directly affected thereby

(the “Affected Lenders”); and

WHEREAS, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders identified on the

signature pages hereto which collectively constitute the Affected Lenders have agreed to amend

certain provisions of the Credit Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:

Section 1. Defined Terms. Unless otherwise specifically defined herein, each term used herein

(including in the recitals above) that is defined in the Credit Agreement has the meaning assigned to

such term in the Credit Agreement.

Section 2. Amendment to Credit Agreement.

(a) The definition of “Applicable Rate” in Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby

amended by replacing the phrase “first fiscal quarter ending at least three months after the Effective Date”

at the end of clause (iii) thereof with the following phrase “fiscal year ending on December 31, 2013”.

Section 3. Conditions. This Agreement shall become effective as of the first date (the “Effective

Date”) when the Administrative Agent shall have received from the Borrower, each Affected Lender and

the Administrative Agent an executed counterpart hereof or other written confirmation (in form

satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) that such party has signed a counterpart hereof.

Section 4. Representations of the Borrower. The Borrower represents and warrants that:

(a) each of the representations and warranties made by any Loan Party in or pursuant to the Loan

Documents is true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Effective Date (except that (x) such

materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified

or modified by materiality in the text thereof and (y) to the extent such representations and warranties are

specifically made as of an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties were true and

correct in all material respects as of such date); and

remedies of any Lender or Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan

Document, and shall not alter, modify, amend or in any way affect any of the terms, conditions,

obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, all

Agreement or any other Loan Document in similar or different circumstances.

Section 7. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of
