Summary
This amendment, dated September 27, 2000, modifies the existing credit agreement between MCSI, Inc.

The amendment temporarily increases the total revolving credit commitment from $160 million to $170 million until the earlier of a foreign subsidiary borrowing under a Canadian facility or November 30, 2000. It also adjusts interest rates and repayment terms for loans made under this temporary increase. After the period ends, the commitment automatically reverts to $160 million.

(b) For the avoidance of doubt, it is noted that the Borrower has the right to make permanent reductions in the amount of the Total General Revolving Commitment in accordance with the provisions of section 4.2(c) of the Credit Agreement. If as of 5:00 P. M. (local time at the Notice Office of the Administrative Agent) on November 30, 2000 (or any earlier Temporary Increase End Date), the Total General Revolving Commitment shall not previously have been permanently reduced to $160,000,000 or less by a voluntary and permanent reduction made in accordance with the provisions of section 4.2(c) of the Credit Agreement, THEN effective as of such time the Total General Revolving Commitment shall be automatically and permanently reduced from $170,000,000 to $160,000,000, and Annex I to the Credit Agreement shall be amended to reflect the reduced General Revolving Commitments of the Lenders as follows:
(c) To the extent that General Revolving Loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement reflect a usage of the temporary increase in the Total General Revolving Commitment from $160,000,000 to $170,000,000 effected by this Amendment (General Revolving Loans reflecting such usage are referred to herein as "BRIDGE LOANS"), THEN notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Credit Agreement, (i) the Applicable Prime Rate Margin for Bridge Loans which are Prime Rate Loans shall be 250 basis points, and (ii) the Applicable Eurodollar Margin for Bridge Loans which are Eurodollar Loans shall be 450 basis points. (d) The only Interest Period which shall be available for a Bridge Loan which is a Eurodollar Loan is an Interest Period of one month, subject to Continuation for additional Interest Periods as provided in section 2.8 of the Credit Agreement. No Interest Period for a Bridge Loan which is a Eurodollar Loan may be selected which would end after November 30, 2000. (e) Once a Bridge Loan is incurred, it may not be prepaid except in connection with a contemporaneous prepayment of all other Bridge loans and a contemporaneous permanent reduction of the Total General Revolving Facility to $160,000,000 or less, effected in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Credit Agreement. Any Bridge Loan which is outstanding on the Temporary Increase End Date shall be prepaid in full on the Temporary Increase End Date, together with accrued interest and any breakage compensation payable pursuant to section 2.10. 1.2. INDEBTEDNESS COVENANT. Effective on the Effective Date of this Amendment provided for in section 3 hereof, clause (c) of section 9.4 of the Credit Agreement is amended to increase the amount specified therein, with the result that such clause (c) as so amended will read in its entirety as follows: (c) Indebtedness incurred by Foreign Subsidiaries; PROVIDED that (i) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such Indebtedness outstanding at any time shall not exceed the U.S. Dollar equivalent of Cdn$25,000,000, and (ii) at the time of any incurrence thereof after the date hereof, and after giving effect thereto, no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result therefrom; 1.3.
