THIS FIRST AMENDMENT TO SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT
(this "First Amendment"), dated as of June 30, 1998, is entered into among
FRANCHISE FINANCE CORPORATION OF AMERICA, a Delaware corporation ("Company"),
the banks listed on the signature page hereof (the "Lenders"), and NATIONSBANK,
N.A. (successor by merger to NationsBank of Texas, N.A.) in its capacity as
administrative agent for the Lenders (the "Administrative Lender").
A. Company, Lenders, certain Co-Agents and Administrative Lender are
parties to that certain Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as
of December 29, 1997, as amended by that certain waiver letter, dated February
17, 1998 (said Credit Agreement, as amended, the "Credit Agreement"; the terms
defined in the Credit Agreement and not otherwise defined herein shall be used
herein as defined in the Credit Agreement).
B. Company, Lenders and Administrative Lender desire to amend the
Credit Agreement to make certain amendments thereto.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants, conditions and
agreements hereafter set forth, and for other good and valuable consideration,
the receipt and adequacy of which are all hereby acknowledged, the parties
hereto covenant and agree as follows:
1. AMENDMENTS TO CREDIT AGREEMENT.
(a) The definition of "Applicable Law" set forth in Section
1.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to read as follows:
"`APPLICABLE LAW' means (a) in respect of any Person,
all provisions of constitutions, statutes, rules, regulations
and orders of governmental bodies or regulatory agencies
applicable to such Person and its properties, including,
without limiting the foregoing, all orders and decrees of all
courts and arbitrators in proceedings or actions to which the
Person in question is a party, and (b) in respect of contracts
relating to interest or finance charges that are made or
performed in the State of Texas, `Applicable Law' means the
laws of the United States of America, including without
limitation 12 USC ▇▇.▇▇. 85 and 86, as amended from time to
time, and any other statute of the United States of America
now or at any time hereafter prescribing the maximum rates of
interest on loans and extensions of credit, and the laws of
the State of Texas, including, without limitation, Art. 1H, if
applicable, and if Art. 1H is not applicable, Art. 1D, and any
other statute of the State of Texas now or at any time
hereafter prescribing maximum rates of interest on loans and
extensions of credit; provided that the parties hereto agree
that the provisions of Chapter 346 of the Texas Finance Code,
as amended, shall not apply to Advances, this Agreement, the
Notes or any other Loan Papers."
(b) The definition of "Highest Lawful Rate" set forth in
Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to read as
follows:
"`HIGHEST LAWFUL RATE' shall mean at the particular
time in question the maximum rate of interest which, under
Applicable Law, the Lenders are then permitted to charge on
the Obligation. If the maximum rate of interest which, under
Applicable Law, the Lenders are permitted to charge on the
Obligation shall change after the date hereof, the Highest
Lawful Rate shall be automatically increased or decreased, as
the case may be, from time to time as of the effective time of
each change in the Highest Lawful Rate without notice to the
Borrower. For purposes of determining the Highest Lawful Rate
under the Applicable Law of the State of Texas, the applicable
rate ceiling shall be (a) the weekly rate ceiling described in
and computed in accordance with the provisions of Art. ID.003,
or (b) if the parties subsequently contract as allowed by
Applicable Law, the quarterly ceiling or the annualized
ceiling computed pursuant to Art. ID.008; provided, however,
that at any time the weekly rate ceiling, the quarterly
ceiling or the annualized ceiling shall be less than 18% per
annum or more than 24% per annum, the provisions of Art.
ID.009(a) and (b) shall control for purposes of such
determination, as applicable."
(c) Article 4 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by
adding a new Section 4.21 thereto to read as follows:
"4.21 YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE. The Borrower has (a)
initiated a review and assessment of all areas within its and
each of its Subsidiaries' business and operations (including
those affected by its suppliers and vendors) that could be
adversely affected by the "Year 2000 Problem" (that is, the
risk that computer applications used by the Borrower or any of
its Subsidiaries (or its suppliers and vendors) may be unable
to recognize and perform properly date-sensitive functions
involving certain dates prior to and any date after December
31, 1999), (b) developed a plan and timeline for addressing
the Year 2000 Problem on a timely basis, and (c) to date,
implemented that plan in accordance with that timetable. The
Borrower reasonably believes that all computer applications
(including those of its suppliers and vendors) that are
material to its or any of its Subsidiaries' business and
operations will on a timely basis be able to perform properly
date-sensitive functions for all dates before and after
January 1, 2000 (that is, be "Year 2000 Compliant"), except to
the extent that a failure to do so could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect."
(d) Article 5 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by
adding a new Section 5.15 thereto to read as follows:
"5.15 YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE. The Borrower will
promptly notify the Administrative Agent in the event the
Borrower discovers or determines that any computer application
(including those of its suppliers and vendors) that is
material to its or any of its Subsidiaries' business and
operations will not be Year 2000 Compliant, except to the
2
extent that such failure could not reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect."
(e) Section 6.6 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to
read as follows:
"6.6 DISPOSITIONS OF ASSETS. Company shall not, and
shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, sell, lease,
assign, or otherwise dispose of any assets of Company or any
of its Subsidiaries in an Asset Sale, or otherwise consummate
any Asset Sale, except so long as there exists no Default or
Event of Default, and no Default or Event of Default would be
caused thereby, Company and its Subsidiaries may consummate
Asset Sales for fair market value in an aggregate amount not
to exceed during any period of four consecutive fiscal
quarters 25% of Total Assets (calculated as an amount equal to
the result of (a) the sum of Total Assets as of the first day
of each fiscal quarter during such four quarter period (b)
divided by four), provided that the Asset Sale Proceeds in
excess of $3,000,000 of each Asset Sale (including in respect
of an Asset Securitization) which occurs after the Closing
Date are applied as provided in Section 2.5(b) hereof;
provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, (i) Company will not dispose of any assets at any
time in an amount that would impair or jeopardize the status
of Company as a Real Estate Investment Trust and (ii) the
market value of any assets sold in an Asset Securitization
shall be excluded from the calculation of assets disposed of
in Asset Sales for purposes of the 25% limitation set forth in
this Section 6.6. On the day of any Asset Sale by Company or
its Subsidiaries in which the Asset Sale Proceeds thereof
exceed $3,000,000, Company shall deliver to Administrative
Agent a certificate of an Authorized Officer certifying as to
the amount of gross proceeds thereof and costs and expenses
payable thereof which were deducted in determining the Asset
Sale Proceeds."
(f) Section 6.10 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to
read as follows:
"6.10 LOANS AND INVESTMENTS. Company shall not, and
shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, make any
Investment to, or make or have any Investment in, any Person,
or make any commitment to make any such Investment, or make
any acquisition, except (a) investments existing on the date
hereof as shown on Section 4.13 hereto, (b) Investments in
Cash Equivalents, (c) Investments in travel advances in the
ordinary course of business to officers and employees, (d)
Investments in accounts receivable arising in the ordinary
course of business, (e) Investments in Subsidiaries of Company
in compliance with Section 6.17 hereof, and (f) Investments in
the form of subordinated investment securities and other
similar instruments obtained by Company or any of its
Subsidiaries in connection with an Asset Securitization;
provided that the aggregate amount of such Investments
pursuant to clause (f) (including the Secured Franchise Loan
Pass-Through Certificates shown on Schedule 4.13 hereto) shall
not exceed 20% of Total Assets at any time."
3

Credit Agreement is hereby amended to be in the form of Exhibit C to
this First Amendment.
