The parties to the APA have made customary representations, warranties and covenants therein. The representations, warranties and covenants made by and to the parties thereto as of specific dates.

For the foregoing reasons, no person should rely on the representations and warranties as statements of factual information at the time they were made or otherwise.

On February 27, 2007, Ceco Environmental Corp. (the "Company") entered into a Second Amendment to Credit Agreement ("Amendment"). The Credit Agreement was entered into among the Company, Ceco Group, Inc, Ceco Filters, Inc., New Busch Co., Inc., The Kirk & Blum Manufacturing Company, Kbd/Technic, Inc., CecoAire, Inc., Ceco Abatement Systems, Inc., H.M. White, Inc. and CECO Acquisition Corp. (all of which are direct or indirect subsidiaries of the Company and collectively with the Company, the "Borrowers") and Fifth Third Bank, an Ohio banking corporation ("Lender"). The Amendment amends the Credit Agreement entered into December 29, 2007 with Lender and certain Borrowers, as amended by the First Amendment to Credit Agreement dated as of June 8, 2006 (as amended, the "Credit Agreement").
The Amendment amends the Credit Agreement to (i) increase the maximum revolving loan commitment from $13,000,000 to $20,000,000, (ii) increase the inventory sublimit from $5,000,000 to $7,500,000, (iii) make an additional term loan in the aggregate amount of $5,000,000 ("Term Loan B") to finance, in part the Asset Acquisition, (iv) increase the maximum capital expenditures financial covenant commencing with fiscal year 2007 from $750,000 to $1,500,000, (v) increase the minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as such term is defined in the Credit Agreement) from 1.10 to 1.0 to 1.25 to 1.0, (vi) extend the termination date of the line of credit from January 31, 2009 to January 31, 2010, (vii) make certain changes to the incentive pricing with respect to the Line of Credit, Term Loan A, Unused Line Fee and LOC Fee, each to be based upon Borrowers' Fixed Share Coverage Ratio (as all of such terms are defined in the Credit Agreement), (viii) make certain changes to the required Financial Covenant levels with respect to the Maximum Total Funded Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Ratio, and (ix) consent to the Asset Purchase. The maturity date of Term Loan B is January 31, 2010 and the interest rate is currently based upon LIBOR plus 2.25%, the current applicable LIBOR rate margin, provided that Borrowers may elect to have the interest rate based on prime plus the applicable prime rate margin. Under the Term Loan B, principal payments of $62,500 are due every month from March 1, 2007 through and including February 1, 2008, and payments of $93,750 are due from March 1, 2008 through and including January 1, 2010. Upon an Event of Default, as defined in the Credit Agreement, the amounts due under the Term Loan B may become immediately due and payable. The interest rate on the current term loan and the revolving line of credit have not been revised.
In connection with the Amendment, the Borrowers entered into a Second Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Promissory Note dated Feburary 28, 2007 ("Revolving Note"), a Second Amended and Restated Term Promissory Note dated February 28, 2007 ("Restated Term Note"), and a Term Promissory Note dated February 28, 2007 ("Term Note").
The descriptions set forth herein of the terms and conditions of the Amendment, the Revolving Note, the Restated Term Note and the Term Note are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendement, the Revolving Note, the Restated Term Note and the Term Note which are filed with this report as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 10.3 and 10.4, respectively, and incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.
