a.Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to add the below language to the end of the definition of “Consolidated EBITDA” appearing therein:
“Notwithstanding the manner in which operations are classified under GAAP, no operations will be classified as discontinued due to the fact that they are subject to an agreement to dispose of such operations, and with respect to any calculation or determination for any period under Consolidated EBITDA, such operations will only be classified as discontinued when and to the extent such operations are actually disposed of.”

a.The Administrative Agent (or its counsel) shall have received counterparts of (i) this Amendment duly executed by the Borrower, the Required Lenders and the Administrative Agent and (ii) the Consent and Reaffirmation attached hereto duly executed by the Subsidiary Guarantors.

b.Each Loan Document and all other documents, instruments and agreements executed and/or delivered in connection therewith shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed.
c.The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other documents, instruments and agreements executed and/or delivered in connection therewith.
