in connection with this Amendment, including the fees and expenses of Dickinson
Wright PLLC, counsel to the Agent, in connection with the preparation and review
of this Amendment and any related documents. Further, the Loan Parties agree pay
and save the Agent and the Banks harmless from liability for the payment of all
costs and expenses of the Agent and the Banks in obtaining, following the
closing of this Amendment, an appraisal of the inventory of the Loan Parties, in
form and detail satisfactory, and prepared by an appraiser acceptable, to the
Agent and the Banks.

        4.6       The Agent, the Banks and the Loan Parties, after consulting or
having had the opportunity to consult with counsel, knowingly, voluntarily and
intentionally waive any right any of them may have to a trial by jury in any
litigation based upon or arising out of the Loan Documents, this Amendment or
any related instrument or agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by
this Amendment or any conduct, dealing, statements (whether oral or written) or
actions of any of them. None of the parties hereto shall seek to consolidate, by
counterclaim or otherwise, any such action in which a jury trial has been waived
with any other action in which a jury trial cannot be or has not been waived.
These provisions shall not be deemed to have been modified in any respect or
relinquished by any party hereto except by a written instrument executed by such
party.

        4.7       THE LOAN PARTIES WAIVE, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED
BY LAW, ANY RIGHT ANY OF THEM MAY HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECOVER FROM THE AGENT OR THE
BANKS IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING ANY SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.

        4.8        This Amendment is made for the sole benefit and protection of
the Loan Parties, the Agent and the Banks and their respective successors and
permitted assigns (provided that the Loan Parties shall not be permitted, absent
the prior written consent of the Agent, to assign any of their rights or
obligations under this Amendment). No other person or entity shall have any
rights whatsoever under this Amendment. Time shall be of the strictest essence
in the performance of each and every one of the Loan Parties’ obligations
hereunder. Notwithstanding any provision hereof, this Amendment shall not be
considered to be binding upon the Agent and the Banks unless and until a copy
hereof shall be executed by the Loan Parties, the Agent and the Banks, and
delivered to the Agent.

        4.9        The Loan Documents, as modified and amended by this
Amendment, constitute the entire understanding of the parties with respect to
the subject matter hereof and may only be modified or amended by a further
writing signed by the party to be charged. If any of the provisions of this
Amendment are in conflict with any applicable statute or rule of law or
otherwise unenforceable, such offending provisions shall be null and void only
to the extent of such conflict or unenforceability, but shall be deemed separate
from and shall not invalidate any other provision of this Amendment. Terms used
but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in
the Loan Documents.

        4.10        There are no promises or inducements which have been made to
any signatory hereto to cause such signatory to enter into this Amendment other
than those which are set forth in this Amendment. The Loan Parties acknowledge
that they, or their authorized officers have thoroughly read and reviewed the
terms and provisions of this Amendment and are familiar with same, that the
terms and provisions contained herein are clearly understood by the Loan Parties
and have been fully and unconditionally consented to by the Loan Parties and
that the Loan Parties have had full benefit and advice of counsel of their own
selection, or the opportunity to obtain the benefit and advice of counsel of
their own selection, in regard to understanding the terms, meaning and effect of
this Amendment, and that this Amendment has been entered into by the Loan
Parties freely, voluntarily, with full knowledge, and without duress, and that
in executing this Amendment, the Loan Parties are relying on no other
representations, either written or oral, express or implied, made to the Loan
Parties by any other party hereto, and that the consideration hereunder received
by the Loan Parties has been actual and adequate.
