9, 2009 (the “November 2009 Amendment”) [as so amended, the “Loan Agreement”], providing for an
$8,000,000.00 term loan, evidenced by a promissory note (the “Term Note”) and a $20,000.000.00
revolving loan, evidenced by a promissory note (the “Revolving Note”) (the Term Note and Revolving
Note are herein sometimes referred to as the “Notes”);

B. The obligations under the Loan Agreement, the Term Note and the Revolving Note are secured
by inventory, chattel paper, accounts, equipment and intangibles of Borrower, and supported by the

C. Borrower has also requested that Lender advance an additional $4,000,000.00 of principal,
resulting in a $12,000,000.00 principal commitment on the Term Note, and extend the Maturity Date
of the Term Note on the terms set forth in Exhibit 1 attached hereto (the “Term Note
Modification”); and

D. Lender is willing to amend the Term Note as provided in the Term Note Modification subject
to and conditioned upon the terms and conditions herein set forth.

amount of $8,500,000.00. Current principal balance is $8,000,000.00.

Description of Collateral: All inventory, chattel paper, accounts, equipment and general
intangibles.

Description of Change in Terms:

Lender will permit a one-time additional advance of principal, in one or more advances up to

Payment schedule is as follows:

Quarterly payments in the amount of $600,000.00 plus interest for 19 payments beginning January 29,
2010, with a balance plus interest due at maturity on January 29, 2015.

Continuing Validity. Except as expressly changed by this Agreement, the terms of the original
obligation or obligations, including all agreements evidenced or securing the obligation(s), remain
unchanged and in full force and effect. Consent by Lender to this Agreement does not waive Lender’s
right to strict performance of the obligation(s) as changed, nor obligate Lender to make any future
change in terms. Nothing in this Agreement will constitute a satisfaction of the obligation(s). It
is the intention of Lender to
retain as liable parties all makers and endorsers of the original obligation(s), including
accommodation parties, unless a party is expressly released by Lender in writing. Any maker or
endorser, including accommodation makers, will not be released by virtue of this Agreement. If any
person who signed the original obligation does not sign this Agreement below, then all persons
signing below acknowledge that this Agreement is given conditionally, based on the representation
to Lender that the non-signing party consents to the changes and provisions of this Agreement or
otherwise will not be released by it. This waiver applies not only to any initial extension,
modification or release, but also to all such subsequent actions.

PRIOR TO SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT, BORROWER READ AND UNDERSTOOD ALL THE PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT,
BORROWER AGREES TO THE TERMS OF THE AGREEMENT AND ACKNOWLEDGES RECEIPT OF A COMPLETED COPY OF THE
AGREEMENT.
