The First Amendment amends the Loan Agreement to reduce the minimum amount of domestic cash or cash equivalents held in certain accounts of the Borrowers from $500,000,000 to $250,000,000, which the Borrowers are required to hold in order to avoid triggering certain financial covenants and other restrictive terms contained in the Loan Agreement, as well as to change certain financial and other definitions.

The First Amendment was designed to provide the Company with greater operational flexibility.

The Borrowers did not pay any amendment fees to the Lenders in connection with the First Amendment.
