-4-


in each case, only up to the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering such Qualified ECP Guarantor’s obligations and undertakings under this Article IV voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations and undertakings of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full.

(s) Section 11.07 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the words “2.01(b) or” in clause (f)(i) thereof.

Section 11.21 Appointment of the Company.

(v) Schedule 2.01is hereby amended by replacing it with the new Schedule 2.01 attached hereto.

(w) For the avoidance of doubt, it is acknowledged that, following the Closing Date, it was discovered that the property located at 300 Jones Road, Spartanburg, SC and listed on Schedule 7.11 is not an owned real property and was actually leased and , therefore, was replaced as a Mortgaged Property with the property located at 14101 Lear Boulevard, Reno, NV.
