(b) The definition of the term “Consolidated EBITDA” set forth in Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the words “Consolidated Interest Expense” in clause (a) (i) thereof and substituting therefor the words “consolidated interest expense”.

(c) The definition of the term “Excess Cash Flow” set forth in Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by inserting immediately after the words “Consolidated Interest Expense for such period paid in cash” in clause (i) thereof the words “and premiums paid in cash during such period in connection with any permitted prepayment, redemption or repurchase of Existing Debt”.

SECTION 2.   Representations and Warranties.   To induce the other parties hereto to enter into this Amendment, Holdings and the Borrower represent and warrant to each of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Collateral Agent that, after giving effect to this Amendment, (a) the




representations and warranties set forth in Article III of the Credit Agreement are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date hereof, except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date; and (b) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

SECTION 4.   Effect of Amendment.   Except as expressly set forth herein, this Amendment shall not by implication or otherwise limit, impair, constitute a waiver of, or otherwise affect the rights and remedies of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks, the Collateral Agent or the 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 of which are ratified and affirmed in all respects and shall continue in full force and effect. Nothing herein shall be deemed to entitle any Loan Party to a consent to, or a waiver, amendment, modification or other change of, any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document in similar or different circumstances. This Amendment shall apply and be effective only with respect to the provisions of the Credit Agreement specifically referred to herein. After the date hereof, any reference to the Credit Agreement shall mean the Credit Agreement as modified hereby.
