 Dear Shareholders: 

Reference is made to the Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of April 30, 2008 (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) by and among
Lumificient Corporation, a Minnesota corporation (the “Company”), the shareholders of the Company listed on Schedule I thereto (the “Shareholders”) and Nexxus Lighting, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
“Purchaser”). Among other things, under the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Shareholders received total cash consideration of $1.1 million (subject to a $200,000 indemnity Holdback Amount), an aggregate of 475,000 shares
of the Purchaser’s Common Stock and, based upon certain future earn-out formulations (“Earn-out Payments”), may receive up to an aggregate of 1,725,000 additional shares of the Purchaser’s Common Stock. Capitalized terms
used in this letter and not defined shall have the same meanings ascribed to such terms in the Stock Purchase Agreement. 
 This letter, when
countersigned by you, shall confirm our agreement as follows: 
 1. The Purchaser Common Stock issued to the Shareholders as Initial Shares
and the Purchaser Common Stock which may be issued to the Shareholders as Earn-out Payments (the “Earn-out Shares”) will not result in such Shareholders (individually or together with any other person or entity with whom each such
Shareholder has identified, or will have identified, itself as part of a “group” in a public filing made with the Securities and Exchange Commission involving the Company’s securities) acquiring, or obtaining the right to acquire, in
excess of 19.999% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or voting power of the Purchaser outstanding before the Closing. 
 2. In
connection with the transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Purchaser will not issue Purchaser Common Stock to the Shareholders in excess of 19.999% of the outstanding shares of Purchaser Common Stock or the voting power of
the Purchaser outstanding before the Closing (the “Threshold”) without first obtaining stockholder approval for such issuance. 
 3. If on any Payment Date, the delivery to the Shareholders of Earn-out Shares would result in the Purchaser issuing Purchaser Common Stock to the Shareholders in excess of the Threshold, (the “Excess Shares”), in lieu of
issuing the Excess Shares, the 

 
Purchaser may pay the Shareholders an amount equal to the value of the Excess Shares on such Payment Date. The value of the Excess Shares on the Payment Date
shall be equal to the number of Excess Shares to be delivered to the Shareholders multiplied by the closing sales price of the Purchaser Common Stock as reported by NASDAQ on the Payment Date. 
 4. Except as explicitly set forth herein, the Stock Purchase Agreement shall remain unmodified and in full force and effect. 
 5. This letter shall be governed by Delaware law, without regard to the conflicts of law principles thereof. 
  

			
	Very truly yours

 Exhibit 4.1 
 SUBSTITUTE REVOLVING CREDIT NOTE 
  

			
	$20,000,000	 	As of June 30, 2008

 FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, MEDALLION FINANCIAL CORP. a Delaware corporation (the
“Borrower”), hereby unconditionally promises to pay on or before August 31, 2008 (the “Revolving Credit Termination Date”), to the order of STERLING NATIONAL BANK (the “Bank”), at the office of the Bank located at
650 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York 10019, or at such other location as the Bank shall designate, in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds, the principal amount of the lesser of (i) $20,000,000, or
(ii) so much thereof as shall have been advanced (the “Advances”) by the Bank to the Borrower and remain outstanding pursuant to that certain Loan and Security Agreement dated April 26, 2004 by and between the Borrower and the
Bank, as amended by a First Amendment thereto dated July 28, 2005, a letter agreement dated June 15, 2006, a Second Amendment thereto dated August 14, 2006 and a Third Amendment thereto dated June 30, 2007 and a Fourth Amendment
dated December 31, 2007, hereof (collectively, the “Agreement”). Terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement. 
 The Borrower further agrees to pay interest in like money at such office on the unpaid principal amount hereof from time to time at a rate or rates per
annum and at such times as are provided in the Agreement. Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed. 
 All Advances made by the Bank to the Borrower hereunder may be noted by the Bank on any schedule or other record which may now or hereafter be annexed by the Bank hereto, and the Bank is authorized to make such
notations which shall be prima facie evidence of the principal amount outstanding hereunder at any time; provided, however, that any failure to make such a notation (or any error in notation) shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the
Borrower hereunder, which is and shall remain absolute and unconditional. 
 This Note is secured by the Collateral, the Security Agreement
and other collateral described in the Agreement, and is jointly and severally guaranteed by the Pledgors. 
 The Borrower shall pay to the
Bank a late charge (the “Late Charge”) in an amount equal to five percent (5%) of any payment which is more than ten (10) days in arrears to cover the extra expense involved in handling delinquent payments. The term
“payments” shall be construed to include principal, interest, fees and any other amount due under the terms of this Note or any of the other Loan Documents. Acceptance by the Bank of payment of a Late Charge shall in no way be construed to
be an election of remedies or waiver by the Bank of any of its rights at law or under the terms of any of the Loan Documents. 
 This Note
may be prepaid, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, in accordance with the provisions of the Agreement. 

 All payments made hereunder shall be applied: first, to any fees or other charges owing to the Bank
hereunder; second, to accrued and unpaid interest; and third, to the outstanding principal balance hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Bank may apply payments received hereunder in such manner as it
shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion. 
 The Bank may declare this Note to be immediately due and payable if any of the
following events shall have occurred and be continuing: 
 (1) Failure by the Borrower to make any payment of principal or interest under this
Note on any date when due; or 
 (2) An Event of Default shall have occurred under the Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

 Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Bank may, in addition to such other and further rights and remedies as provided by law or
under any of the Loan Documents, (i) collect interest on such overdue amount from the date of such maturity until paid at a rate per annum equal to two percent (2%) in excess of the rate otherwise in effect hereunder, (ii) setoff such
amount against any deposit account maintained in the Bank by the Borrower, and such right of setoff shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately upon such stated or accelerated maturity even though such setoff is not noted on the records of
the Bank until a later time, and (iii) hold as security any property heretofore or hereafter delivered into the custody, control or possession of the Bank or any entity acting as agent for the Bank by any person liable for the payment of this
Note. 
 This Note may not be changed orally, but only by an agreement in writing, signed by the party against whom enforcement of any
waiver, change, modification or discharge is sought. 
 Should the indebtedness represented by this Note or any part hereof be collected at
law or in equity, or in bankruptcy, receivership, or any other court proceeding, or should this Note be placed in the hands of attorneys for collection upon default, the Borrower agrees to pay, in addition to the principal and interest due and
payable hereon, all reasonable costs and expenses of collecting or attempting to collect this Note, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses. 
 This Note shall be and remain in full force and effect and in no way impaired until the actual payment thereof to the Bank, its successors or assigns. 
 Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of the Borrower under this Note shall be subject to the limitation that payments of
interest shall not be required to the extent that receipt of any such payment by the Bank would be contrary to provisions of law applicable to the Bank limiting the maximum rate of interest which may be charged or collected by the Bank. 

The Borrower and all endorsers and guarantors of this Note hereby waive presentment, demand for payment, protest and notice of dishonor of this Note.

 This Note is binding upon the Borrower and its successors and permitted assigns and shall inure to the

 This Note is executed and delivered by
the Borrower in substitution for, but not in repayment of, the Substitute Revolving Credit Note dated August 14, 2006 from the Borrower to the Bank in the maximum principal amount of $20,000,000 (the “Prior Note”); provided, however,
that the execution and delivery by the Borrower of this Note shall not constitute a refinancing, repayment, accord and satisfaction or novation of the Prior Note or the indebtedness evidenced thereby.
