conditions of this Amendment. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual covenants and agreements
herein contained, it is agreed as follows:

“Eligible Progress Accounts” means all unpaid Accounts of a Borrower which constitute progress billings under a

“Maximum Line Amount” means Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000). 

In addition to the foregoing, the definition of “Eligible Accounts” shall be amended so that clause (xiii) reads as

otherwise eligible, to the extent that the aggregate balance of such Accounts exceeds fifteen percent (15%) of the aggregate amount of all Accounts of such Borrower, and with respect to CSX Corporation, to the extent that the aggregate balance
of such Accounts exceeds twenty five percent (25%) of the aggregate amount of all Accounts of such Borrower;
