Copies of the DIP Term Loan Agreement, DIP Revolving Credit Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement were filed as exhibits to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on March 17, 2009.
In order to amend certain provisions of the Financing Agreements principally to conform to changes reflected in Bankruptcy Court filings and to facilitate participation by certain holders of the Company's 11 ½ Senior Secured Notes in the DIP Term Loan Agreement, the Debtors entered into Amendment No. 1 to the DIP Term Loan Agreement, filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1, Amendment No. 1 to the Intercreditor Agreement filed herewith as Exhibit 10.2, the First Amendment to the DIP Revolving Credit Agreement, filed herewith as Exhibit 10.3, and the Senior Secured Superpriority Priming Debtor-In-Possession Note Purchase Agreement, filed herewith as Exhibit 10.4.
