 R E C I T A L S: 
  
 WHEREAS, Borrower and Lender are parties to that certain Amended and Restated Forbearance and Modification Agreement, dated as of September 15, 2005
(as amended and modified from time to time, the “Forbearance Agreement”); and 
  
 WHEREAS, Borrower is in default of the Forbearance Agreement; and 
  
 WHEREAS, Borrower and Lender desire to amend the Forbearance Agreement as set forth herein. 
  
 NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and
intending to be legally bound, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
  
 1. Definitions; Recitals. All capitalized terms used but not elsewhere defined in this Amendment shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Forbearance Agreement, as amended hereby. The recitals set forth
above are incorporated herein by this reference thereto as though fully set forth below. 
  
 2. Amendment to Section 1.4. Section 1.4 of the Forbearance Agreement is hereby amended to delete the date “December 15, 2004” where it appears therein and insert in substitution
therefor the date “November 4, 2005”. 
  
 3.
Amendment to Section 2.5. Section 2.5 of the Forbearance Agreement is hereby amended in its entirety to read as follows: 
  
 “2.5. In response to Borrower’s request, Lender is willing to forebear until the Forbearance Termination Date from exercising
its rights and remedies under the Loan Documents and under applicable law as a result of the existence of the Designated Defaults provided that such forbearance is on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement (and, for the sake of
clarity, in no event shall such forbearance extend beyond November 4, 2005) and, further provided, that such forbearance does not waive the Designated Defaults or any other default or Event of Default that has arisen or may arise in the future
or otherwise prejudice the rights and remedies of Lender.” 
  

 1 








 4. Amendment to Section 4.1 of the Forbearance Agreement. The last full paragraph of
Section 4.1 of the Forbearance Agreement providing for an extension of the Forbearance Termination Date under certain conditions is hereby deleted in its entirety. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Forbearance Agreement to the contrary,
between the date of this Amendment and the Forbearance Termination Date, Advances shall not exceed $4,081,000. 
  
 5. Costs and Expenses. Borrower agrees to reimburse Lender for all out of pocket costs and expenses incurred in the preparation, negotiation
and execution of this Amendment and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including, without limitation, the expenses and fees of counsel for Lender. 
  
 6. Ratification of Existing Agreements. Borrower reaffirms all of the terms, conditions, representations and
warranties under the Loan Documents and the Forbearance Agreement (except as expressly set forth in the Forbearance Agreement and herein) and acknowledges that all of the Obligations are, by execution of this Amendment, ratified and confirmed in all
respects by Borrower. Borrower further reaffirms the grant of all liens and security interests under the Loan Documents and notwithstanding the execution and delivery of this Amendment, the Loan Documents and the Forbearance Agreement remain in full
force and effect and the rights and remedies of Lender thereunder and the liens and security interests created and provided thereunder remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected or impaired hereby. 
  
 7. No Waiver by Lender. Lender shall not be deemed to have
waived any or all of its rights or remedies with respect to any default or event or condition which, with notice or the lapse of time, or both, would become a default under the Loan Documents and which upon Borrower’s execution and delivery of
this Amendment might otherwise exist or which might hereafter occur. The failure of Lender at any time or times hereafter to require strict performance by Borrower of any of the provisions, warranties, terms and conditions contained herein, in the
Forbearance Agreement or in the Loan Documents shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of Lender at any time or times thereafter to demand strict performance thereof; and, no rights of Lender hereunder shall be deemed to have been waived by
any act or knowledge of Lender, its agents, officers or employees, unless such waiver is contained in an instrument in writing signed by an authorized officer of Lender and directed to such Person specifying such waiver. No waiver by Lender of any
of its rights shall operate as a waiver of any other of its rights or any of its rights on a future occasion at any time and from time to time. All terms and conditions of the Loan Documents remain in full force and effect except to the extent
specifically modified by the Forbearance Agreement. 
  
 8.
Severability. If any term or provision of this Amendment or the application thereof to any party or circumstance shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Amendment shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, and the affected term or provision shall be modified to the minimum extent permitted by law so as most fully to
achieve the intention of this Amendment. 
  
 9. Conditions
Precedent. This Amendment shall become effective upon satisfaction of each of the following conditions, which, in each case, are in form and substance satisfactory to Lender in its sole and absolute discretion and such satisfaction shall be

fixed or contingent (collectively, the “Claims”), which Borrower may have or claim to have against Lender or any of its affiliates, agents, employees, officers, directors, representatives, attorneys, successors, or assigns (collectively,
the “Lender Released Parties”), which might arise out of or be connected with any act of commission or omission of the Lender Released Parties existing or occurring on or prior to the date of this Amendment, including without limitation
any Claims arising with respect to the Forbearance Agreement, Credit Agreement or any Loan Documents. Borrower hereby releases, acquits, and forever discharges the Lender Released Parties from any and all Claims that Borrower may have or claim to
have, relating to or arising out of or in connection with this Amendment, the Forbearance Agreement, the Credit Agreement or any Loan Documents or any other agreement or transaction contemplated thereby or any action taken in connection therewith
from the beginning of time up to and including the Effective Date of this Amendment. Borrower further agrees forever to refrain from commencing, instituting, or prosecuting any lawsuit, action, or other proceeding against any Lender Released Parties
with respect to any and all Claims. 
  
 12. WAIVER OF JURY
TRIAL. EACH PARTY TO THIS AMENDMENT KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AMENDMENT OR THE
UNDERLYING TRANSACTIONS. EACH OBLIGOR CERTIFIES THAT NEITHER THE LENDER NOR ANY OF ITS REPRESENTATIVES, AGENTS OR COUNSEL HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT THE LENDER WOULD NOT IN THE EVENT OF ANY SUCH SUIT, SEEK TO ENFORCE THIS WAIVER
