The Second Amendment amends the Credit Agreement to, among other things: (i) increase the margin applicable to Eurodollar rate borrowings and letters of credit by up to 0.250% per annum depending on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio and (ii) increase the limit on the Company’s ability to repurchase, redeem, or make dividends, distributions or other restricted payments in respect of, the Company’s capital stock, at a time when a “rating condition” (as defined in the Credit Agreement) exists, by $100 million to an aggregate of $300 million, provided that the Company prepay the term loans under the Credit Agreement in an amount equal to 50% of any such restricted payments declared and/or made on or after July 27, 2010.
The above description of the Second Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete terms of the Second Amendment, a copy of which is included as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
