2

3.     After giving effect to this Amendment, the representations and warranties contained in the Credit Agreement and the other Financing Documents are true and correct in all material respects (but in all respects if such representation or warranty is qualified by "material" or "Material Adverse Effect"), except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties were true and correct in all material respects (but in all respects if such representation or warranty is qualified by "material" or "Material Adverse Effect") on and as of such earlier date, and no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing as of the date hereof.

D.  OTHER AGREEMENTS

1.     Waivers.
(i)          The Borrower and its Subsidiaries acknowledge and agree that as of this date, an Event of Default has occurred as a result of the Borrower's failure to comply with Section 7.2(c)(i) of the Credit Agreement in that the Borrower failed to hire a suitable permanent replacement for its Chief Financial Officer within ninety (90) days of departure (the "Existing Default").  Upon the effectiveness of this Amendment, Agent and Lenders hereby waive the Existing Default. Such waiver shall in no way constitute a waiver of any other Event of Default which may have occurred, but is not specifically referenced as an "Event of Default," nor shall it obligate Agent or Lenders to provide any further waiver of any other Event of Default.
(ii)          Upon the effectiveness of this Amendment, Agent and Lenders hereby waive the requirement to pay any Applicable Prepayment Fee payable as a result of this Amendment pursuant to Section 2.3(d) of the Credit Agreement with respect to the existing Term Credit Facilities in place immediately prior to the effectiveness of this Amendment; provided, however that this shall in no way constitute a waiver of the Applicable Prepayment Fee payable with respect to the Term Credit Facility described on the Credit Facility Schedule attached to this Amendment as Exhibit A.
2.     Continuing Effectiveness of Financing Documents.  As amended hereby, all terms of the Credit Agreement and the other Financing Documents shall be and remain in full force and effect and shall constitute the legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligations of the Credit Parties party thereto.  To the extent any terms and conditions in any of the other Financing Documents shall contradict or be in conflict with any terms or conditions of the Credit Agreement, after giving effect to this Amendment, such terms and conditions are hereby deemed modified and amended accordingly to reflect the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement as modified and amended hereby. Upon the effectiveness of this Amendment such terms and conditions are hereby deemed modified and amended accordingly to reflect the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement as modified and amended hereby.  This Amendment shall constitute a Financing Document for all purposes of the Credit Agreement.
3.     Reaffirmation. Each of the Credit Parties as debtor, grantor, pledgor, guarantor, assignor, or in other any other similar capacity in which such Credit Party grants liens or security interests in its property or otherwise acts as accommodation party or guarantor, as the case may be, hereby ratifies and reaffirms all of its payment and performance obligations, contingent or otherwise, under each of the Financing Documents to which it is a party (after giving effect hereto).  Each Credit Party hereby acknowledges

3

          
that, as of the date hereof, the security interests and liens granted to Agent and the Lenders under the Credit Agreement and the other Financing Documents are in full force and effect, are properly perfected and are enforceable in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and the other Financing Documents.
4.     No Waiver or Novation.  The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not, except as expressly provided herein, operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of the Lenders under the Credit Agreement, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of the Credit Agreement.  This Amendment is not intended by the parties to be, and shall not be construed to be, a novation of the Credit Agreement and the other Financing Documents or an accord and satisfaction in regard thereto.
5.     Governing Law.   This Amendment shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of Maryland and all applicable federal laws of the United States of America.
6.     Costs and Expenses.  Borrower agrees to pay on demand all reasonable costs and expenses of Agent and the Lenders in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of this Amendment, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of outside counsel for Agent and the Lenders with respect thereto.
7.     Counterparts.  This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, is an original, and all taken together, constitute one agreement.  Delivery of an executed signature page of this Amendment by facsimile transmission or electronic transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof.
8.     Binding Nature.  This Amendment binds and is for the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of each party hereto.  No third party beneficiaries are intended in connection with this Amendment.
9.     Integration.  This Amendment and the Financing Documents represent the entire agreement about this subject matter and supersede prior negotiations or agreements.  All prior agreements, understandings, representations, warranties, and negotiations between the parties about the subject matter of this Amendment and the Financing Documents merge into this Amendment and the Financing Documents.
10.   Release.  Each Credit Party hereby releases, acquits, and forever discharges Agent and each of the Lenders, and each and every past and present subsidiary, affiliate, stockholder, officer, director, agent, servant, employee, representative, and attorney of Agent and the Lenders, from any and all claims, causes of action, suits, debts, liens, obligations, liabilities, demands, losses, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) of any kind, character, or nature whatsoever, known or unknown, fixed or contingent, which such Credit Party may have or claim to have now or which may hereafter arise out of or connected with any act of commission or omission of Agent or the Lenders existing or occurring prior to the date of this Amendment or any instrument executed prior to the date of this Amendment including, without limitation, any claims, liabilities or obligations arising with respect to the Credit Agreement or the other of the Financing Documents, other than claims, liabilities or obligations caused by Agent's or any Lender's own gross negligence or willful misconduct.  The provisions of this paragraph shall be binding upon each Credit Party and shall inure to the benefit of Agent, the Lenders, and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns.
