Mac Frugal's Bargains o Close-Outs Inc.
Attention:
Re: Mac Frugal's Bargains o Close-Outs Inc.
Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
dated as of October 5, 1993
Gentlemen:
We refer to that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
dated as of October 5, 1993, as amended, among Mac Frugal's Bargains o
Close-Outs Inc., a Delaware corporation, West Coast Liquidators, Inc., a
California corporation, PNS Stores, Inc., a California corporation (the
"Borrowers"), the banks party thereto (the "Lenders"), Bank of America National
Trust and Savings Association, as Administrative Agent, and Bank of America
Illinois, as Co-Agent (the "Agreement").
Section 2.21 of the Agreement provides that the Revolver
Maturity Date may be extended annually by all Lenders consenting to such
extension not later than 45 days after receipt of a written notice from the
Administrative Agent seeking such consent (the "Consent Date"). By July 21,
1995, the Consent Date to extend the Revolver Maturity Date to August 10, 1998,
one Lender had not consented to such extension, and, therefore, by the terms of
said Section 2.21, the Revolver Maturity Date was not extended.
By an assignment effective as of July 31, 1995, the dissenting
Xxxxxx has assigned all its right, title and interest in the Agreement and its
Loans and participations in Letters of Credit thereunder to Bank of America
National Trust and Savings Association. After giving effect to such
assignment, all remaining Lenders agreed to extend the Revolver Maturity Date
to August 10, 1998, but not by the Consent Date. The Borrower's have requested
that all Lenders waive the requirement that such consent must have been
obtained by the Consent Date for this year's extension.
