(c) Section 2.10.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by replacing the reference therein to October 27, 2012 with a reference to the first anniversary of the date of effectiveness of that certain Second Amendment to this Agreement, dated as of April 2, 2012, among Borrower, the Agent and certain Lenders,
2. Representations and Warranties of Borrower. Borrower hereby represents and warrants to Agent and Lenders that, both before and after giving effect to this Amendment:

(c) The representations and warranties of Borrower set forth in the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, and in the other Loan Documents, as amended hereby, are true and correct in all material respects as of the date hereof, with the same effect as though made on the date hereof (except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date).
3. Conditions Precedent to Effectiveness. This Amendment shall become effective on the date when each of the following conditions shall have been fulfilled to the satisfaction of the Agent:

(b) Borrower shall have paid to each Lender a fully earned, non-refundable fee in an amount equal to 1.00% of the outstanding portion of the Term Loan owed to such Lender; and

(b) Counterparts.
