                        "9.6. Distributions. Make any capital distribution in

redeem any of its stock or other securities, or retire any of its stock, or take

of its stock owned by Mark Nitzberg, and may transfer to treasury all shares of
stock so purchased.

                7.      Section 9.19 of the Loan Agreement is amended to read as
follows:

                "9.19. Effective Tangible Net Worth. Permit Borrower's Effective
Tangible Net Worth to be less than the amounts set forth below, tested
quarterly, during the periods set forth below:

                     Amount                           Time Period
                     ------                           -----------
                 10,500,000.00              Fiscal Year ending June 30, 2002
                 11,000,000.00              Fiscal Year ending June 30, 2003
                 12,000,000.00*             Fiscal Year ending June 30, 2004
                              **

---------------------

        *For the Fiscal Year ending June 30, 2005 and each Fiscal Year
thereafter, the minimum Effective Tangible Net Worth (ETNW) for such Fiscal Year
shall be the minimum ETNW for the for the immediately preceding Fiscal Year
increased by fifty (50) percent of the net profits of the Fiscal Year being
tested, determined in accordance with the financial statements to be submitted
to Bank pursuant to Article 6, and reduced as permitted by the next two
paragraphs.

        **In the event Borrower shall use an actuarial table that is different
than the one it presently uses in calculating its pension liability, and such
use shall result in a reduction to Borrower's net worth, the ETNW requirement
for the Fiscal

                                       5
<PAGE>

Year ending June 30, 2005 shall $11,000,000. Borrower has also terminated its
employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) and is contemplating purchasing from
employees of Borrower who receive distributions from the ESOP up to 90,000
shares of Borrower's common stock at a cost of approximately $500,000.00. If
Borrower, in fact, purchases some or all such shares of common stock, the ETNW
requirement commencing with the Fiscal Year in which the first such purchase
occurs shall be further reduced by $500,000.00.

        Borrower is contemplating purchasing shares of common stock owned by
Mark Nitzberg. Borrower estimates that the cost of this common stock will be
approximately $1,000,000.00. If Borrower acquires all or some of Mark Nitzberg's
common stock during the Fiscal Year ending June 30, 2006, the ETNW requirement
for the Fiscal Year ending June 30, 2006 shall be reduced by $1,000,000.00."

        In the event Borrower, in fact, makes the adjustment to its financial
statements, as described in the preceding paragraph, the ETNW requirement for
the Fiscal Year ending June 30, 2005 shall be $11,000,000.00. Borrower is also
contemplating terminating its employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) and
purchasing from such ESOP approximately 90,000 shares of Borrower's common stock
at a cost of approximately $500,000.00 and converting such common stock into
Treasury Stock. If Borrower, in fact, terminates its ESOP during the Fiscal Year
ending June 30, 2005 and purchases some or all of the common stock of the
Company held by such ESOP during such Fiscal Year, the ETNW requirement for the
Fiscal Year ending June 30, 2005, shall be further reduced to $10,500,000.00.

        For its Fiscal Year ending June 30, 2006, Borrower is contemplating
purchasing the common stock owned by Mark Nitzberg and converting such common
stock into Treasury Stock. Borrower estimates that the cost of this common stock
will be approximately $1,000,000.00. If Borrower acquires all or some of Mark
Nitzberg's common stock during the Fiscal Year ending June 30, 2006, the ETNW
requirement for the Fiscal Year ending June 30, 2006 shall be reduced by
$1,000,000.00."

        8.      Article 9 of the Loan Agreement is amended by adding a new
Section 9.20 to read as follows:

                "9.20 Debt to Effective Tangible Net Worth. On and after June
30, 2005, permit the ratio of Borrower's Debt to ETNW to be no greater than 2.25
to 1.0, which ratio shall change

                                       6
<PAGE>

to be no greater than 2.50 to 1.0 on and after June 30, 2006, tested annually."

        9.      Borrower acknowledges that in the event Lender agrees to renew
the Revolving Loan beyond the Termination Date of the Revolving Loan, Lender
reserves the right to impose revised new and/or additional financial covenants
relating to the Revolving Loan.

        10.     In order to induce Bank to continue to provide financing under
the Revolving Loan and extend the revolving credit facility, Borrower represents
and warrants to Bank that except as disclosed in Borrower's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2004, Borrower's Quarterly Reports
on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended September 30, 2004, December 31,
2004, press releases, and except as disclosed to Bank, since June 30, 2004,
there has been (1) no material adverse change in the financial condition,
assets, liabilities, business or operation (financial or otherwise) of Borrower
or any Guarantor and (2) no damage, destruction or loss of any of Borrower's or
any Guarantor's property, whether or not covered by insurance, materially and
adversely affecting Borrower's or any Guarantor's business or property.

        11.     Any reference in any document executed and/or delivered in
connection with the Loan Agreement to the "Agreement" or the "Loan Agreement"
shall mean the revolving loan agreement dated December 23, 2002 as amended by
the first amendment dated October 23, 2003 and this Agreement. All of the
provisions of the Restated Secured Revolving Note, the Loan Agreement or any
other document executed or delivered in connection with the Loan Agreement
(collectively, the "Loan Documents") are amended so that such terms shall be
consistent with the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing
and to the extent that there is any inconsistency between the provisions of
those agreements and this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall
govern.

        12.     Bank's agreement to continue to provide financing under the
Revolving Loan, to extend the maturity date of the Revolving Loan and Restated
Secured Revolving Note from "December 1, 2005" to "December 1, 2007," to modify
the interest rate on Advances and to otherwise modify the Loan Agreement and the
other Loan Documents is not and shall not be construed as a waiver of any
current or future default under the Restated Secured Revolving Note, the Loan
Agreement or any other Loan Document nor shall it preclude Bank from proceeding
against Borrower on any

                                       7
<PAGE>

such default. This Agreement is also not a relinquishment of any rights or
remedies Bank may have in connection with the Restated Secured Revolving Note,
the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document.

        13.     As a material condition to the entering into of this Agreement,
Borrower and each Guarantor by executing this Agreement voluntarily and
expressly waive any and all rights to assert a claim, counterclaim or defense
which now exists of which they have actual knowledge against Bank arising out of
or in any way connected with the Restated Secured Revolving Note, the Loan
Agreement or any other Loan Document. The foregoing waiver shall apply to any
action instituted by any of the undersigned and to any action or proceeding
brought against any of the undersigned by Bank. The term "actual knowledge"
means the conscious awareness of those officers of Borrower and the Guarantors
who have given substantive attention to this Agreement, of facts or information
relating to such a claim, counterclaim or defense, without undertaking any
investigation to determine the existence or absence of any such facts or
information, either within Borrower or any of the Guarantors or otherwise.

        14.     Borrower and each Guarantor by executing this Agreement
acknowledge that there is due and owing on the Restated Secured Revolving Note
as May 4, 2005 the principal sum of $-0-.

        15.     Borrower and each Guarantor by executing this Agreement confirms
that all of the representations and warranties set forth in the Loan Agreement

on the date hereof. As of the date hereof, to Borrower's actual knowledge (as

changes to the information set forth in Schedules 5.2, 5.3, 5.8, 5.9, 5.13,
5.14, 5.15, 5.16, 5.17, 5.18 and 5.23 of the Loan Agreement, except as set forth
in the copies of such schedules annexed hereto.

        16.     BORROWER AND EACH GUARANTOR BY EXECUTING THIS AGREEMENT
ACKNOWLEDGE THAT IT HAS HAD A FULL AND FAIR OPPORTUNITY TO REVIEW THIS AGREEMENT
AND THE DOCUMENTS REFERRED TO HEREIN WITH COUNSEL OF ITS CHOICE AND THAT IT HAS
BEEN ADVISED AS TO THEIR TERMS AND CONDITIONS, WHICH ARE ACCEPTABLE TO IT.
FURTHER, EACH CONFIRMS THAT IN DELIVERING THIS AGREEMENT TO BANK, IT IS NOT
RELYING ON ANY PROMISE, COMMITMENT, REPRESENTATION OR UNDERSTANDING, EITHER
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, MADE

                                       8

AGREEMENT, THE RESTATED SECURED REVOLVING NOTE OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT.
BORROWER AND EACH GUARANTOR BY EXECUTING THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RESTATED SECURED
REVOLVING NOTE ACKNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTAND THAT ALL OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE

DISCRETION EXTENDS THE MATURITY DATE OF SUCH OBLIGATION AND THAT BANK HAS NOT
MADE ANY REPRESENTATION THAT IT WILL EXTEND THE MATURITY DATE OF SUCH
OBLIGATION.

        17.     This document may be executed in one or more counterparts and
all such documents taken together shall be considered one original document.
