Loan Agreement is hereby amended to read in full as follows:

 

“Agent may make Revolving
Credit Loans on behalf of Lenders at a time when an Overadvance exists or would
be caused by the making of such Revolving Credit Loans

 

1

 

on behalf of Lenders,
where such Revolving Credit Loans (without duplication) are either (a) Protective
Advances, or (b) are made when Availability equals zero and made during the
period July 1 through November 15 of any calendar year and are not
extant for more than ninety (90) days (which need not be consecutive) during
any such period absent consent of Majority Lenders; provided however, in no
event shall (x) the making of any Overadvance cause any Lender to exceed that
Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment, (y) the aggregate outstanding amount of
Overadvances exceed $7,500,000 at any one time and (z) the aggregate amount of
Protective Advances exceed the lesser of $5,000,000 or 5% of the Borrowing
Base; provided further that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no Overadvance may
be made, other than a Protective Advance, (A) in the period July 1 through

Overadvance, Borrowers’ Consolidated EBITDA for the most recent twelve month
period for which financial statements have been delivered to Agent equals or
exceeds $18,000,000.  In each case,
after the expiration of such period, no such event or occurrence shall cause or

Revolving Credit Loans at any time that an Overadvance exists or would result
therefrom.  Agent may not (i) make

Amended Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby;

 

(b)                                 No

matters referred to herein and supersede all prior or contemporaneous
negotiations, promises, agreements, or representations, all of which have

be entitled to reimbursement of its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs in
connection therewith, in addition to all other relief to which the prevailing Party
or Parties may be entitled.  Each of the

4.6                               This Amendment and all
rights and obligations hereunder, including matters of construction, validity,
and performance, shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State
of California and shall inure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon the
successors, heirs and assigns of the Parties.

Loan Agreement contained in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents and

future be amended, restated, supplemented or modified from time to time.
