 EXHIBIT A  
  

AMENDED AND RESTATED TERM LOAN PROMISSORY NOTE 
  
 May 27, 2005 
  
 $6,250,000.00 
  
 FOR VALUE
RECEIVED, the undersigned, CYBEX INTERNATIONAL, INC., a New York corporation (the “Company”), promises to pay to the order of THE CIT GROUP/BUSINESS CREDIT, INC. (herein “CIT”) at its office located at 900 Ashwood Parkway, Suite
610, Atlanta, Georgia 30338 in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds, the principal amount of SIX MILLION TWO HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($6,250,000.00) as follows: 1) eleven (11) equal
quarterly principal installments of $390,625.00, followed by 2) one (1) final principal installment of $1,953,125.00, whereof the first such installment shall be due and payable on September 30, 2005 and subsequent installments shall be due and
payable on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter thereafter until this Amended and Restated Term Loan Promissory Note is paid in full. 
  
 The Company further agrees to pay interest at said office, in like money, on the unpaid principal amount owing hereunder from time to time from the date
hereof on the date and at the rate specified in Section 8 of the Financing Agreement, dated July 16, 2003, as amended, between the Company and CIT (as amended on the date hereof and as otherwise amended, supplemented, restated or modified from time
to time, the “Financing Agreement”). Capitalized terms used herein and defined in the Financing Agreement shall have the same meanings as set forth therein unless otherwise specifically defined herein. 
  
 If any payment on this Amended and Restated Term Loan Promissory Note becomes
due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such
extension. 
  
 This Amended and Restated Term Loan Promissory Note
shall amend, replace and supercede in its entirety that certain Term Loan Promissory Note, dated July 13, 2004, in the original principal amount of $4,000,000.00 executed by the Company to the order of CIT (the “Old Promissory
Note”) and is given in substitution thereof, and not in payment therefor, all as more fully set forth in that certain Fourth Amendment to Financing Agreement and Waiver of even date herewith between the Company and CIT (the “Fourth

thereof and is subject to optional and mandatory prepayment, in whole or in part, as provided therein. 
  
  







 The execution of this Amended and Restated Term Loan Promissory Note shall not effectuate a novation or
extinguishment of the Company’s Obligations under the Old Promissory Note. The principal amount of this Amended and Restated Term Loan Promissory Note includes the portion of the outstanding principal balance of the Old Promissory Note that has
not been repaid and remains outstanding on the date hereof. 
  
 Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default specified in the Financing Agreement or upon termination of the Financing Agreement, all amounts then remaining unpaid on this Amended and Restated Term Loan Promissory Note may become, or be
declared to be, at the sole election of CIT, immediately due and payable as provided in the Financing Agreement.
