	SECTION 1.	DEFINITIONS 

Section 1.1 Definitions. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings given to them
in the Loan Agreement as amended hereby. 
  

	SECTION 2.	AMENDMENT TO THE LOAN AGREEMENT 

 Section 2.1 Amendment to Section 10.3.1. Section 10.3.1 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows: 

Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. Subject to the proviso below, maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of at least 1.10
to 1.00; provided, however, that such requirement shall not apply unless and until (a) as of any date on or after the Closing Date through and including September 30, 2013, Availability is less than $6,000,000 for any period
of three consecutive days or is less than $5,500,000 for any day, (b) as of any date on or after October 1, 2013 through and including December 31, 2013, Availability is less than $7,000,000 for any period of three consecutive days or
is less than $6,500,000 for any day, (c) as of any date on or after January 1, 2014 through and including March 31, 2014, Availability is less than $9,000,000 or (d) as of any date on or after April 1, 2014, Availability is

to in the immediately preceding proviso shall be increased by the net cash proceeds received as a result of each such sale of Real Estate for each period specified during which such sale occurred
and for each such period thereafter, provide that none of such specified amounts as so increased shall exceed $10,000,000. By way of example only, if an Obligor sells Real Estate during October 2013 and receives net cash proceeds of $1,000,000 in
connection therewith, then the Availability amounts referred to in clause (b) preceding shall be $8,000,000 and $7,500,000, respectively, and the Availability amount in clause (c) preceding shall be $10,000,000. 

 

	SECTION 3.	CONDITION PRECEDENT 

Section 3.1 Condition Precedent. The effectiveness of this Amendment is subject to the satisfaction of the following
condition precedent (except if and to the extent that Agent shall have waived such condition precedent in writing): 
 (a) Agent shall have received this Agreement as duly executed by all parties hereto, which parties shall include all Borrowers, Guarantors, Lenders and Agent. 

 

	SECTION 4.	MISCELLANEOUS 

Section 4.1 Representations and Warranties. Each of Obligors represents and warrants to Agent and Lenders that
(a) all representations and warranties relating to such Obligor contained in the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document are true and correct as of the date hereof as if made again on and as of the date hereof (except to the extent that such
representations and warranties were expressly, in the Loan Documents, made only in reference to another specific date, in which case they are true and correct as of such specific date), (b) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing (after giving effect to this Amendment), (c) such Obligor has all requisite power and authority to execute and deliver this Amendment, (d) the execution and delivery of this Amendment by such Obligor has been duly authorized by
all necessary corporate or other organizational action, and does not and will not violate or result in any breach or contravention of any Material Contract to which such Obligor is a party or subject, any Organic Document of such Obligor or any
Applicable Law, and (e) the resolutions previously adopted by the board of directors or equivalent governing body of each Obligor and previously certified to Agent in connection with the execution of the Loan Agreement, and all Organic
Documents previously delivered to Agent in connection with the execution of the Loan Agreement, are and remain true and complete, and in full force and effect, without amendment thereto. 

Section 4.2 Ratifications. Except as expressly modified and superseded by this Amendment, the terms and provisions of
the Loan Agreement and other Loan Documents are ratified and confirmed and shall continue in full force and effect. Obligors, Lenders and Agent agree that the Loan Agreement and other Loan Documents shall continue to be legal, valid, binding and
enforceable in accordance with their terms except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity, regardless of
whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. 
 Section 4.3 Reference to Loan Agreement, etc. Each
of the Loan Documents, including the Loan Agreement and any and all other agreements, documents or instruments now or hereafter executed and/or delivered pursuant to the terms hereof or pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement as amended hereby,

this Amendment shall not limit or diminish the obligations of any Borrower or other Obligor under the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document, and (b) reaffirms its obligations under the Loan Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents.

 Section 4.5 Severability. If any provision of this Amendment is held to be illegal, invalid or
unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Amendment shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties hereto shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the
illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall
not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 Section 4.6 Governing Law.
THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD REQUIRE THE APPLICATION OF ANOTHER LAW (BUT GIVING EFFECT TO FEDERAL LAWS

the prior written consent of Agent and Required Lenders.

This Amendment may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Executed counterparts of
a signature page to this Amendment may be delivered by facsimile or electronic messaging system, and if so delivered shall have the same force and effect as manually signed originals for all purposes. 

Section 4.9 Headings. The headings, captions and arrangements used in this Amendment are for convenience only and
shall not affect the interpretation of this Amendment. 
 Section 4.10 Entire Agreement. THIS AMENDMENT, THE LOAN
AGREEMENT AND ALL OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN OR AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO AND THERETO RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND THEREOF, AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED OR VARIED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR

 Section 4.11 Costs and Expenses. Borrowers agree to pay all reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses of Agent in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of this
Amendment, including without limitation the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to Agent.
