This AMENDMENT TO SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED LOAN AGREEMENT (this "Amendment")

certain Loan Modification Agreement dated as of March 29, 2007 (as the same may

WHEREAS, the Borrowers have requested the Bank to amend the Minimum Consolidated

as of such date to (b) Consolidated EBITDA for the period of four (4)
consecutive fiscal quarters ending on the date of calculation (i) prior to and
including June 30, 2008, shall not exceed 2.5:1.0 and (ii) thereafter shall not
exceed 2.0:1.0."

     2. Amendment to ss.6(v) of the Loan Agreement. Section 6(v) of the Loan
Agreement is hereby amended by deleting such Section in its entirety and
replacing it with the following:

     "6(v) Minimum Consolidated EBITDA. For the period of four (4) consecutive
fiscal quarters then ended, the Borrowers shall not permit Consolidated EBITDA
to be less than (i) $15,3000,000 on December 31, 2006, (ii) $16,300,000 on March
31, 2007, (iii) $16,300,000 on June 30, 2007, (iv) $17,000,000 on September 30,

(ix) $19,500,000 on December 31, 2008, (x) $20,000,000 on March 31, 2009, (xi)

(xiii) $21,500,000 on the last day of each fiscal quarter thereafter."

     3. Effective Date and Conditions to Effectiveness. This Amendment shall be
effective as of June 30, 2007, upon the receipt by the Bank of a counterpart
signature page to this Amendment duly executed and delivered by each of the
Borrowers.

     4. Representations and Warranties. Each of the Borrowers represents and
warrants as follows:




     (a) The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the performance of
each of this Amendment and the Loan Agreement, as amended as of the date hereof,
are within the corporate power and authority of such Borrower and have been or
will be authorized by proper corporate proceedings, and do not (i) require any
consent or approval of the stockholders of such Borrower, (ii) contravene any
provision of the charter documents or by-laws of such Borrower or any law, rule
or regulation applicable to such Borrower, or (iii) contravene any provision of,
or constitute an event of default or event which, but for the requirement that
time elapse or notice be given, or both, would constitute an event of default
under, any other material agreement, instrument or undertaking binding on such
Borrower.

     (b) This Amendment and the Loan Agreement, as amended as of the date
hereof, and all of the terms and provisions hereof and thereof are the legal,
valid and binding obligations of such Borrower enforceable in accordance with
their respective terms except as limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors'
rights generally, and except as the remedy of specific performance or of
injunctive relief is subject to the discretion of the court before which any
proceeding therefor may be brought.

     (c) Except with respect to filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission, the execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment, as of the
date hereof, do not require any approval or consent of, or filing or
registration with, any governmental or other agency or authority, or any other
party.

     (d) Each of the representations and warranties of the Borrowers contained
in the Loan Agreement (after giving effect to this Amendment) or in any document
or instrument delivered pursuant to or in connection with the Loan Agreement are
true and correct in all material respects as of the date hereof with the same
effect as if made on and as of the date hereof (except to the extent of changes
resulting from transactions contemplated or permitted by the Loan Agreement and
changes occurring in the ordinary course of business which singly or in the
aggregate do not create a Material Adverse Effect, and to the extent that such
representations and warranties relate expressly to an earlier date).

     (e) After giving effect to this Amendment, no Default or Event of Default
under the Loan Agreement has occurred and is continuing.

     5. Ratification, etc. Except as expressly amended hereby, the Loan
Agreement, the other Loan Documents and all documents, instruments and
agreements related thereto are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects and
shall continue in full force and effect. Each Borrower hereby affirms all of its
obligations under the Loan Agreement and under each of the other Loan Documents
to which it is a party and hereby affirms its absolute and unconditional promise
to pay to the Bank the Loans and all other amounts due under the Loan Agreement
(as amended hereby) and the other Loan Documents. This Amendment and the Loan
Agreement shall hereafter be read and construed together as a single document,
and all references in the Loan Agreement or any related agreement or instrument
to the Loan Agreement shall hereafter refer to the Loan Agreement as amended by
this Amendment.

     6. Governing Law. This Amendment and the rights and obligations of the
parties hereunder shall be deemed to be a document executed under seal and shall
be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts (excluding the laws applicable to conflicts or choice of law).

     7. Delivery By Facsimile Or Other Electronic Transmission. This Amendment,
to the extent signed and delivered by means of a facsimile machine or other
electronic transmission in which the actual signature is evident, shall be
treated in all manner and respects as an original agreement or instrument and
shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the
original signed version thereof delivered in person. At the request of any party
hereto, each other party hereto or thereto shall re-execute original forms
hereof and deliver them to all other parties. No party hereto shall raise the
use of a facsimile machine or other electronic transmission in which the actual
signature is evident to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or
agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of a
facsimile machine or other electronic transmission in which the actual signature
is evident as a defense to the formation of a contract and each party forever
waives such defense.




     8. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of
counterparts and by different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of
which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which
counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same
instrument.


                     [Remainder of page intentionally blank]





     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have duly executed this Amendment as of
the date first set forth above.
