The Amendment (a) increases the maximum Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) covenant from 3.50 to 1.0 to, (i) if the Deltek Acquisition is consummated on or before December 31, 2016, 4.25 to 1.0 through June 30, 2017 and 4.00 to 1.0 through December 31 2017 or (ii) if the Deltek Acquisition is consummated after December 31, 2016 but on or before March 31, 2017, 4.25 to 1.0 from January 1, 2017 through June 30, 2017 and 4.00 to 1.0 through December 31, 2017 and (b) excludes any indebtedness the proceeds of which is to be used to finance the Deltek Acquisition from the calculation of the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio until such time as the Deltek Acquisition is consummated or five business days after the Deltek Acquisition is terminated, so long as such proceeds are either held in escrow on customary terms or are held by the Company in an account at the administrative agent or a lender under the Credit Agreement as unrestricted cash or cash equivalents.

The above description of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is included solely as a summary of the material terms of the Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference.
