<PAGE>

            (a) The execution, delivery and performance of this Consent by
      Borrower and the other Credit Parties: (i) are within their respective
      organizational powers; (ii) have been duly authorized by all necessary
      corporate and shareholder action; (iii) are not in contravention of any
      provision of their respective certificates or articles of incorporation or
      by-laws or other organizational documents; (iv) do not violate any law or
      regulation, or any order or decree of any court or Governmental Authority;
      (v) do not conflict with or result in the breach or termination of,
      constitute a default under or accelerate or permit the acceleration of any
      performance required by, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, lease,
      agreement or other instrument to which any Borrower or any Credit Party is
      a party or by which Borrower or any Credit Party or any of its property is
      bound; (vi) do not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon
      any of the property of Borrower or any Credit Party other than those in
      favor of Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents; and (vii) do not require
      the consent or approval of any Governmental Authority or any other Person.

            (b) This Consent has been duly executed and delivered by or on
      behalf of each Credit Party.

            (c) This Consent constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation
      of each Credit Party enforceable against each Credit Party in accordance
      with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable
      bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws
      affecting creditors' rights generally and by general equitable principles
      (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law).

            (d) No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing
      both before and after giving effect to this Consent.

            (e) No action, claim or proceeding is now pending or, to the
      knowledge of Borrower and the other Credit Parties, threatened against
      Borrower or the other Credit Parties, at law, in equity or otherwise,
      before any court, board, commission, agency or instrumentality of any
      federal, state, or local government or of any agency or subdivision
      thereof, or before any arbitrator or panel of arbitrators, (i) which
      challenges Borrower's or the other Credit Parties' right, power, or
      competence to enter into this Consent or, to the extent applicable,
      perform any of its obligations under this Consent, the Credit Agreement or
      any other Loan Document, or the validity or enforceability of this
      Consent, the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or any action
      taken under this Consent, the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document
      or (ii) which, if determined adversely, is reasonably likely to have or
      result in a Material Adverse Effect, except those that have been
      previously disclosed to Agent and Lenders in the Disclosure Schedules to
      the Credit Agreement or in the filings of the Borrower with the Securities
      and Exchange Commission, which have been provided to the Agent and Lenders
      pursuant to paragraph (g) of Exhibit E to the Credit Agreement. To the
      knowledge of Borrower and each Credit Party, there does not exist a state
      of facts which is reasonably likely to give rise to such proceedings.

            (f) The representations and warranties of Borrower and the other
      Credit Parties contained in the Credit Agreement and each other Loan
      Document shall be true and correct on and as of the date hereof and the
      Effective Date with the same effect as if such representations and
      warranties had been made on and as of each such date, subject to
      previously provided Disclosure Schedules, except that any such
      representation or warranty which is expressly made only as of a specified
      date need be true only as of such date.

            4. Ratification of Credit Agreement; Remedies.

            (a) Except as expressly provided for, and on the terms and
conditions set forth, herein, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents
shall continue to be in full force and effect in accordance with their
respective terms and shall be unmodified. In addition, this Consent shall not be
deemed a waiver of any term or condition of any Loan Document by the Agent or
the Lenders with respect to any right or remedy which the Agent or the Lenders
may now or in the future have under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity or
otherwise or be deemed to prejudice any rights or remedies which the Agent or
the Lenders may now have or may have in the future under or in connection with
any Loan Document or under or in connection with any Default or Event of Default
which may now exist or which may occur after the date hereof. The Credit
Agreement and all other Loan Documents are hereby in all respects ratified and
confirmed.

            (b) This Consent shall constitute a Loan Document. The breach by any
Credit Party of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this
Consent shall constitute an immediate Event of Default hereunder and under the
other Loan Documents.

            5. Outstanding Indebtedness; Waiver of Claims. The Borrower and the
other Credit Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that as of July 14, 2004 the
aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loan is
$9,343,170.28 and such principal amount is payable pursuant to the Credit
Agreement without defense, offset, withholding, counterclaim or deduction of any
kind. The Borrower and each other Credit Party hereby waive, release, remise and
forever discharge Agent, Lenders and each other Indemnified Person from any and
all suits, actions, proceedings, claims, damages, losses, liabilities and
expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) and disbursements and other
costs of investigation or defense, including those incurred upon any appeal of
any kind or character, known or unknown, which Borrower or any other Credit
Party ever had, now has or might hereafter have against Agent or any Lender
which relates, directly or indirectly, to any acts or omissions of Agent or such
Lender or any other Indemnified Person on or prior to the Effective Date.

            6. Expenses. Each of Borrower and the other Credit Parties hereby
reconfirms its respective obligations pursuant to Section 11.3 of the Credit
Agreement to pay and reimburse Agent for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
(including, without limitation, reasonable fees of counsel) incurred in
connection with the negotiation,

costs and expenses billed and owing in connection with this Consent and the
other Loan Documents and due to Agent (including reasonable legal fees and
expenses) on or before the 30th day following the date hereof.

            7. Effectiveness. This Consent shall become effective as of July 15,
