D.      Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit Agreement.

Accordingly, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency and receipt of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

SECTION 1. Amendment to the Credit Agreement . Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions to effectiveness set forth in Section 3 hereof, the Credit Agreement is hereby amended as follows, effective as of the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date (as defined below):

(a)      The definition of “ Consolidated EBITDA ” in Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“ Consolidated EBITDA ” means, for any period, the sum of the following determined on a Consolidated basis, without duplication, for the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in accordance with GAAP: (a) Consolidated Net Income for such period plus (b) the sum of the following, without duplication, to the extent deducted in determining Consolidated Net Income for such period (other than in respect of clauses (vi) and (vii)): (i) income and franchise taxes, (ii) Consolidated Interest Expense, (iii) amortization, depreciation and other non-cash charges (except to the extent that such non-cash charges are reserved for cash charges to be taken in the future but including, for the avoidance of doubt, non-cash compensation expense incurred in connection with any issuance of Equity Interests to or repurchase of Equity Interests from a current or former officer, director or employee of the Borrower or any Subsidiary and non-cash restructuring charges or reserves), (iv) extraordinary losses (excluding extraordinary losses from discontinued operations), (v) Transaction Costs, (vi) Pro Forma Cost Savings for such period and (vii) transition and integration costs incurred during such period arising from or related to mergers, acquisitions, divestitures, dispositions, spin-offs or other similar transactions, such as retention bonuses and acquisition-related milestone payments to acquired employees, in addition to consulting, compensation, and other incremental costs directly associated with integration projects; provided that the aggregate amount added to Consolidated EBITDA pursuant to the foregoing clauses (vi) and (vii) for any period shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of Consolidated EBITDA for such period (determined prior to giving effect to any such addbacks) less (c) the sum of the following, without duplication, to the extent included in determining Consolidated Net Income for such period: (i) interest income, (ii) any extraordinary gains and (iii) non-cash gains or non-cash items increasing Consolidated Net Income. For purposes of this Agreement, Consolidated EBITDA shall be adjusted on a Pro Forma Basis.

(b)      The definition of “ Pro Forma Cost Savings ” in Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“ Pro Forma Cost Savings ” means, without duplication, with respect to any four-quarter period, the net reduction in costs and other operating improvements or synergies that have been realized or are reasonably anticipated in good faith to be realized with respect to any Acquisition, operational change or strategic cost saving initiative within twelve (12) months of the date of such Acquisition, operational change or strategic cost saving initiative and that are reasonable and factually supportable, as if all such reductions in costs had been effected as of the beginning of such twelve (12) month period, decreased by any incremental expenses incurred or to be incurred during such four-quarter period in order to achieve such reduction in costs; provided that (A) Pro Forma Cost Savings described in the preceding sentence shall be detailed in a certificate delivered to the Administrative Agent from the Borrower’s chief financial officer that outlines the specific actions taken or to be taken and the net cost reductions and other operating improvements or synergies achieved or to be achieved from each such action and certifies that such cost reductions and other operating improvements or synergies meet the criteria set forth in the preceding sentence, (B) no cost savings or operating expense reductions shall be added pursuant to this defined term to the extent duplicative of any expense or charges otherwise added to or included in Consolidated EBITDA, whether a pro forma adjustment or otherwise, for such four-quarter period, (C) the aggregate amount of cost savings and operating expense reductions added pursuant to this definition in any four quarter period, when taken together with any amounts added to Consolidated EBITDA pursuant to clause (b)(vii) of the definition thereof, shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of Consolidated EBITDA for such period (determined prior to giving effect to any such Pro Forma Cost Savings and other addbacks described above) and (D) projected amounts (and not yet realized) may no longer be added in calculating Consolidated EBITDA pursuant to this definition to the extent occurring more than four (4) full fiscal quarters after the specified action taken in order to realize such projected cost savings and operating expense reductions. For the avoidance of doubt, any realized or reasonably anticipated in good faith net cost reduction associated with the restructuring charges incurred by the Borrower during the fiscal quarter ended July 31, 2018 shall be deemed to have been realized or reasonably anticipated in good faith in connection with an independent strategic cost saving initiative for purposes of this definition.

(c)      Section 9.6 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

(i) clause (e) shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with “[reserved];”;

(ii) the following shall be inserted as a new clause (f) therein:

(f) so long as (i) the Total Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio calculated on a Pro Forma Basis shall be less than or equal 2.50 to 1.00 and (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or result therefrom, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries may declare or pay any Restricted Payments; and

(iii) the following shall be inserted as a new clause (g) therein:

(g) so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries may make other Restricted Payments in an aggregate amount not to exceed $50,000,000 during the term of this Agreement.

SECTION 2.      Representations and Warranties . The Borrower, as to itself and the Credit Parties, represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that:

(i)      The representations and warranties contained in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects, except for any representation and warranty that is qualified by materiality or reference to Material Adverse Effect, which such representation and warranty is true and correct in all respects, on and as of the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date with the same effect as if made on and as of such date (except for any such representation and warranty that by its terms is made only as of an earlier date, which representation and warranty remains true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date, except for any representation and warranty that is qualified by materiality or reference to Material Adverse Effect, which such representation and warranty remains true and correct in all respects as of such earlier date); and

(ii)      no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
