     6. WAIVER OF EVENT OF DEFAULT

         (a) Subject to the satisfaction of each of the conditions precedent set
forth herein, Lender hereby waives any Event of Default under Section 7.1(b) of
the Loan Agreement arising as a result of the failure of Hanover and its
Subsidiaries to maintain the minimum amounts of Working Capital required
pursuant to Section 6.19(d) of the Loan Agreement for the fiscal month ending
December 27, 2003.

         (b) Lender has not waived, is not by this Amendment waiving, and has no
intention of waiving, any Event of Default which may have occurred on or prior
to the date hereof, whether or not continuing on the date hereof, or which may
occur after the date hereof (whether the same or similar to the Event of Default
referred to in Section 6(a) hereof or otherwise), other than the specific Event
of Default referred to in Section 6(a) hereof, subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein. The foregoing waiver shall not be construed as a
bar to or a waiver of any other or further Event of Default on any future
occasion, whether similar in kind or otherwise and shall not constitute a
waiver, express or implied, of any of the rights and remedies of Lender arising
under the terms of the Loan Agreement or any other Financing Agreements on any
future occasion or otherwise.

     7. FEES. In addition to all other fees, charges, interest and expenses

Agreements, Borrowers shall pay to Lender the following additional fees:

         (a) Borrowers shall pay to Lender, contemporaneously herewith, an

hereof and may be charged into the loan account(s) of any Borrower.

         (b) Tranche B Term Loan Borrowers shall pay to Lender,
contemporaneously herewith, an amendment fee in the amount of $50,000, which fee
is fully earned as of the date hereof and may be charged into the loan
account(s) of any Tranche B Term Loan Borrower.

     8. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS. Borrowers and Guarantors
represent, warrant and covenant with and to Lender as follows, which
representations, warranties and covenants are continuing and shall survive the
execution and delivery hereof, the truth and accuracy of, or compliance with
each, together with the representations, warranties and covenants in the other
Financing Agreements, being a condition of the effectiveness of this Amendment
and a continuing condition of the making or providing of any Revolving Loans or
Letter of Credit Accommodations by Lender to Borrowers:

         (a) This Amendment and each other agreement or instrument to be
executed and delivered by each Borrower or Guarantor hereunder have been duly
authorized, executed and

delivered by all necessary action on the part of each of Borrower and each
Guarantor which is a party hereto and thereto and, if necessary, their
respective stockholders (with respect to any corporation) or members (with
respect to any limited liability company), and is in full force and effect as of
the date hereof, as the case may be, and the agreements and obligations of each
Borrower and Guarantor, as the case may be, contained herein and therein
constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of each Borrower and Guarantor,
as the case may be, enforceable against them in accordance with their terms.

         (b) No action of, or filing with, or consent of any governmental or
public body or authority, and no consent of any other party, is required to
authorize, or is otherwise required in connection with, the execution, delivery
and performance of this Amendment and each other agreement or instrument to be
executed and delivered pursuant hereto and thereto.

(c) Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Chelsey
Subordinated Note, or any other agreements, documents or instruments in
connection therewith, nor the consummation of the transactions herein and
therein contemplated, nor compliance with the provisions thereof (i) has
violated or shall violate any Federal or State securities laws or any other law
or regulation or any order or decree of any court or governmental
instrumentality in any respect, or (ii) does, or shall conflict with or result
in the breach of, or constitute a default in any respect under any mortgage,
deed of trust, security agreement, agreement or instrument to which any Borrower
or Guarantor is a party or may be bound, or (iii) does or shall violate any
provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws of any Borrower or
Guarantor.

         (d) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 10(d) of the
Twenty-Seventh Amendment to Loan Agreement, on or before April 30, 2004,
Borrowers and Guarantors shall have entered into, each in form and substance
satisfactory to Lender, an Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement
among Lender, Borrowers and Guarantors and such other Financing Agreements or
amendments to or amendments and restatements of any existing Financing
Agreements as Lender shall request in connection with the amendment and
restatement of the Loan Agreement.

         (e) All of the representations and warranties set forth in the Loan
Agreement as amended hereby, and the other Financing Agreements, are true and
correct in all material respects after giving effect to the provisions of this
Amendment, except to the extent any such representation or warranty is made as
of a specified date, in which case such representation or warranty shall have
been true and correct as of such date.

         (f) After giving effect to the provisions of this Amendment, no Event
of Default or Incipient Default exists or has occurred and is continuing.

         (b) Lender shall have received, in form and substance satisfactory to

         (c) each of Borrowers and Guarantors shall deliver, or cause to be
delivered, to Lender a true and correct copy of any consent, waiver or approval
to or of this Amendment, including, without limitation, Chelsey, which any
Borrower or Guarantor is required to obtain from any other Person, and such
consent, approval or waiver shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to Lender.

     10. EFFECT OF THIS AMENDMENT. This Amendment constitutes the entire
agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and
supersedes all prior oral or written communications, memoranda, proposals,
negotiations, discussions, term sheets and commitments with respect to the
subject matter hereof. Except as expressly provided herein, no other changes or
modifications to the Loan Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements, or
waivers of or consents under any provisions of any of the foregoing, are
intended or implied by this Amendment, and in all other respects the Financing
Agreements are hereby specifically ratified, restated and confirmed by all
parties hereto as of the effective date hereof. To the extent that any provision
of the Loan Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements conflicts with
any provision of this Amendment, the provision of this Amendment shall control.

such additional documents and take such additional action as may be reasonably

hereto, whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise shall be governed by the
internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to any principle of
conflict of laws or other rule of law that would result in the application of
the law of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York.

     13. BINDING EFFECT. This Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of each of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns.

     14. COUNTERPARTS. This Amendment may be executed in any number of
