NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto, in consideration of their mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth and intending to be legally bound hereby, covenant and agree as follows:

 



 

1.              Modification of Waiver And First Amendment.

 

(a)            Modification of Recitals (Section 1(a) of Waiver and First Amendment).

 

1.              Paragraph 3 of Section 1(a) (Recitals) of the Waiver and First Amendment is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

 

“3.            As a result of the Restatements, the Loan Parties: (1) could not finalize and deliver their Annual Financial Statements for their fiscal year ending December 31, 2003 (the “2003 Annual Statements”), and expect that they will not be able to finalize their Annual Financial Statements for their fiscal year ending December 31, 2004 (the “2004 Annual Statements”), by the due dates therefor under Section 7.3.2 of the Credit Agreement and (2) could not finalize and deliver their Quarterly Financial Statements for their fiscal quarters ending March 31, 2004 (the “March 31, 2004 Quarterly Statements”), June 30, 2004 (the “June 30, 2004 Quarterly Statements”) or September 30, 2004 (the “September 30, 2004 Quarterly Statements”), and expect that they will not be able to finalize and deliver their Quarterly Financial Statements for their fiscal quarters ending March 31, 2005 (the “March 31, 2005 Quarterly Statements”), and June 30, 2005 (the “June 30, 2005 Quarterly Statements”) by the due dates therefor under Section 7.3.1 of the Credit Agreement.”

 

2.              Paragraphs 5 and 6 of Section 1(a) (Recitals) of the Waiver and First Amendment are hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

 

“5.            As a result of the Restatements, the Borrower was not able to file its Annual Reports on Form 10-K for 2003 (the “2003 Form 10-K”) or its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2004 (the “March 2004 10-Q”), June 30, 2004 (the “June 2004 10-Q”) and September 30, 2004 (the “September 2004 10-Q”), and is unlikely to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “2004 Form 10-K”), or its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2005 (the “March 2005 10-Q”) and June 30, 2005 (the “June 2005 10-Q”), in a timely manner.  That failure might be deemed a violation of Law as contemplated by Sections 5.1.19 and 7.1.9 of the Credit Agreement.

2



 

which any Loan Party or Subsidiary of any Loan Party may be obligated as a borrower or guarantor in excess of $20,000,000 in the aggregate, will constitute an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement if such breach, default or event of default consists of the failure to pay (beyond any period of grace permitted with respect thereto, whether waived or not) any Indebtedness when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) or if such breach or default permits or causes the acceleration of Indebtedness .”

 

(b)            Modification of Waivers (Section 1(b) of Waiver and First Amendment).

 

Section 1(b) (Waivers and Agreement) of the Waiver and First Amendment is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
