This Agreement is based upon the following recitals which are made a material part of this Agreement: A. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of a certain Secured Credit Agreement dated as of August 8, 2007 (the "Original Credit Agreement"), as amended by that First Amendment to Credit Agreement, of even date herewith ("First Amendment," and, collectively, with the Original Credit Agreement, the "Credit Agreement"), by and between Borrower, Lenders and Agent, Lenders agreed to make available to Borrower (i) a revolving credit facility in the amount of One Hundred Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($125,000,000) including (a) a revolving letter of credit sub-facility in the amount of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), and (b) a swingline loan sub-facility (from Swingline Lender only) in the amount of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000), with certain term loan conversion privileges; and (ii) the right to increase the credit facilities described at (i) above by an amount up to Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meaning as in the Credit Agreement. B. Borrower and Lenders have mutually agreed to amend the Credit Agreement in certain respects, all upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the recitals and the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Borrower and Lenders hereby agree as follows, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Loan Documents: 1. Affirmation of Recitals. The recitals are true and correct and ------------------------- incorporated herein by this reference. 2. Outstanding Principal Balance. As of the date hereof, (i) the ------------------------------- aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans was $20,000,000, (ii) the aggregate outstanding principal balance of all Term Loans was $19,000,000, and (iii) the aggregate amount of outstanding Letters of Credit (including matured but unsatisfied Obligations of Reimbursement) was $200,000. Borrower hereby stipulates and agrees that the foregoing balances are true and correct and that such amounts are due and owing in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and are not subject to any claim of offset or defense whatsoever. 3. Amendments. Effective upon the last to occur of (a) the date each ---------- of the conditions provided for in Sections 6 and 7 hereof shall have either been satisfied or expressly waived in writing by Lenders and Agent, and (b) the closing of the transactions contemplated by the First Amendment (the "Amendment Effective Date"), the Credit Agreement is amended by deleting the defined term "Revolving Credit Termination Date" in its entirety and replacing it with the following: "Revolving Credit Termination Date" means September 1, 2008. 4. Other Provisions of Loan Documents. The Loan Documents are and (as ---------------------------------- modified and amended hereby) shall remain in full force and effect, and all of the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents (as so modified and amended) are hereby ratified and reaffirmed in all respects. All of the Collateral shall remain subject to the liens, charges and encumbrances of the Loan Documents and nothing herein contained, and nothing done pursuant hereto, shall affect the liens or encumbrances of the Loan Documents, or the priority thereof with respect to other liens or encumbrances, or release or affect the liability of any party or parties whomsoever who may now or hereafter be liable under or on account of the Loan Documents. As used in the preceding sentence, "Loan Documents" shall mean the Loan Documents as modified or amended by this Agreement. 5. Expenses. Borrower shall pay all of Agent's reasonable out-of- -------- pocket costs, expenses, fees and charges incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation, and execution of this Agreement, including, without limitation, all of Agent's reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements. Failure by Borrower to pay any such amounts upon demand by Agent shall constitute an Event of Default. If Borrower fails to pay any such expenses on demand, then Agent shall have the right to pay such expenses and the same shall constitute additional indebtedness of Borrower to Agent evidenced, secured and guaranteed by the Loan Documents. 6. Borrower's Representations and Warranties. Borrower hereby ----------------------------------------------- represents and warrants to and covenants with Lenders, as of the date of this Agreement, as follows: (a) The security interests granted under the Loan Documents have been, are, and shall remain valid first, prior and paramount liens on the Collateral, enjoying the same or superior priority with respect to other claims upon the Collateral as prevailed prior to the execution of this Agreement; (b) No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of this Agreement or shall have occurred and be continuing on the Amendment Effective Date; and (c) All resolutions, authorizations or consents on the part of Borrower which are necessary for Borrower to execute and deliver this Agreement and to be bound by the provisions hereof have been obtained and are in full force and effect on the date hereof, and this Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower and is enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof. Borrower acknowledges that Lenders have relied on the foregoing representations and warranties in entering into this Agreement. In the event Borrower has made any material misrepresentation to Lenders in connection with this Agreement, such misrepresentation shall constitute an Event of Default under the Loan Documents. 7. Conditions to Effectiveness. All of (i) the agreements of ------------------------------ Lenders herein, (ii) the obligation of Lenders to hereafter make any Advances, and (iii) the obligation of Agent to hereafter issue any letter of credit are subject to and conditioned upon the Agent having received (or there shall have been satisfied or waived) on or before February 12, 2008 (the "Closing Date"), all of the following, each item to be delivered dated (unless otherwise indicated) as of the Closing Date, and each in form and substance satisfactory to each Lender: (a) This Agreement duly executed by Borrower.

If any provision of this Agreement shall be unlawful, then such provision shall be null and void, but the remainder of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and be binding on the parties. This Agreement and the Loan Documents referenced herein contain all of the agreements of the parties relative to the subject matter of this Agreement. Any prior agreements or commitments of Lenders, whether oral or written, relating to the subject matter of this Agreement not expressly set forth herein or in the exhibits hereto (if any) are null and void and superseded in their entirety by the provisions hereof.
