In addition, the Fourth Amendment favorably updates the commitment fee in the corporate ratings-based pricing grid; increases the permitted combined leverage ratio to a ratio of 3:50to1:00; and makes certain other amendments to the provisions of the Credit Agreement.

Certain of the lenders under the Credit Agreement, or their affiliates, have in the past performed, and may in the future from time to time perform, investment banking, financial advisory, commercial banking, and other services in the ordinary course of business for the Company and its subsidiaries, for which they have received, and may in the future receive, customary compensation and, in some cases, customary indemnification and/or reimbursement of expenses.
