                  month) and the denominator being 12. This payment will be

                  "Long-Term Bonus"). The Employee will be eligible to earn
                  a Long-Term Bonus during the Employment Period on the
                  basis of the achievement of performance goals during a
                  three-year performance period. The Board will set, on or
                  before the 90th day of such fiscal year, the performance
                  goals to be achieved during the performance period that is
                  then commencing in order for the Employee to earn all or a
                  specified portion of his Long-Term Bonus. The Long-Term
                  Bonus amount that may be earned by the Employee will be
                  set at 35% of the Employee's then-current Annual Base
                  Salary.

                  2.4(d)   SAVINGS AND DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLANS. Throughout
                  the Employment Period, the Employee shall be entitled to
                  participate in all savings, deferred compensation and
                  retirement plans generally available to other peer
                  officers of the Company, including the Company's 401(k)
                  Plan.

                  2.4(e)   WELFARE BENEFIT PLANS. Throughout the Employment
                  Period, the Employee and/or the Employee's family, as the
                  case may be, shall be eligible for participation in and
                  shall receive all benefits under welfare benefit plans,
                  practices, policies and programs provided by the Company
                  (including, without limitation, medical, prescription,
                  dental, disability, salary continuance, employee life,
                  group life, accidental death and travel accident insurance
                  plans and programs) to the extent generally available to
                  other peer employees of the Company.

                  2.4(f)   BUSINESS EXPENSES. Throughout the Employment
                  Period, the Employee shall be entitled to receive prompt
                  reimbursement for all reasonable business expenses
                  incurred by the Employee in the conduct of the business of
                  the Company (including travel and entertainment expenses)
                  in accordance with the policies, practices and

                                     6

<PAGE>

                  procedures generally applicable within the Company.

                  2.4(g)   OFFICE AND FURNISHINGS. Throughout the Employment
                  Period, the Employee shall be entitled to an office or
                  offices of a size and with furnishings and other
                  appointments commensurate with his office, duties and
                  responsibilities with the Company.

                  2.4(h)   VACATION. Throughout the Employment Period, the
                  Employee shall be entitled to paid vacation equal to three
                  (3) weeks per year.

SECTION 3:        TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT.

         3.1      DEATH.  The Employee's employment shall terminate
automatically upon the Employee's death during the Employment Period.

         3.2      DISABILITY. If the Company determines in good faith that the
Disability of the Employee has occurred during the Employment Period
(pursuant to the definition of Disability set forth below), the Company may
give to the Employee written notice in accordance with Section 7.2 of its
intention to terminate the Employee's employment. In such event, the
Employee's employment with the Company shall terminate effective on the
thirtieth (30th) day after receipt of such notice by the Employee (the
"Disability Effective Date"), provided that, within the thirty (30) days
after such receipt, the Employee shall not have returned to full-time
performance of the Employee's duties. For purposes of this Agreement,
"Disability" shall mean that the Employee has been unable to perform the
services required of the Employee under this Agreement on a full-time basis
for a period of one hundred eighty (180) consecutive regular business days
by reason of a physical and/or mental condition. "Disability" shall be
deemed to exist when certified by a physician selected by the Company and
acceptable to the Employee or the Employee's legal representative (such
agreement as to acceptability not to be withheld unreasonably). The Employee
will submit to such medical or psychiatric examinations and tests as such
physician deems necessary to make any such Disability determination.

         3.3      TERMINATION FOR CAUSE. The Company may terminate the
Employee's employment during the Employment Period for "Cause," which shall
mean termination based upon: (a) the Employee's willful and continued
failure to substantially perform his duties with the Company (other than as
a result of incapacity due to physical or mental condition), after a written
demand for substantial performance is delivered to the Employee by the
Company, which specifically identifies the manner in which the Employee has
not substantially performed his duties, (b) the Employee's commission of an
act constituting a criminal offense involving moral turpitude, dishonesty,
or breach of trust, or (c) the Employee's material breach of any provision
of this Agreement. For purposes of this Section 3.3, no act or failure to
act on the Employee's part shall be considered "willful" unless done or
omitted to be done without good faith on the part of the Employee and
without the Employee's reasonable belief that the act or omission was in the
best interest of the Company.

         3.4      GOOD REASON. The Employee may terminate his employment
with the Company during

                                     7

<PAGE>
<PAGE>

the Employment Period for "Good Reason," which shall mean:

                  3.4(a)   the assignment to the Employee of any duties
                  inconsistent in any respect with the Employee's position
                  (including status, offices, titles and reporting
                  requirements), authority, duties or responsibilities as
                  contemplated by Section 2.2(a) or any other action by the
                  Company which results in a diminution in such position,
                  authority, duties or responsibilities, excluding for this
                  purpose any action not taken in bad faith by the Company
                  and which the Company remedies promptly after receipt of
                  notice thereof given by the Employee;

                  3.4(b)   (i) the failure by the Company to continue in
                  effect any benefit or compensation plan, stock ownership
                  plan, life insurance plan, health and accident plan or
                  disability plan to which the Employee is entitled as
                  specified in Section 2.4, provided that the Company may
                  amend, modify or replace any such plan or plans as long as
                  the Employee is entitled to benefits under the amended,
                  modified or replaced plan or plans that are substantially
                  similar to those of the plan or plans so amended, modified
                  or replaced, (ii) the taking of any action by the Company
                  which would adversely affect the Employee's participation
                  in, or materially reduce the Employee's benefits under,
                  any plans described in Section 2.4, or deprive the
                  Employee of any benefits enjoyed by the Employee as
                  described in Section 2.4(f) and (g), or (iii) the failure
                  by the Company to provide the Employee with paid vacation
                  to which the Employee is entitled as described in Section
                  2.4(h);

                  3.4(c)   the Company's requiring the Employee to be based at
                  any office or location other than that described in
                  Section 2.3;

                  3.4(d)   a material breach by the Company of any provision
                  of this Agreement;

                  3.4(e)   any purported termination by the Company of the
                  Employee's employment otherwise than as expressly
                  permitted by this Agreement; or

                  3.4(f)   in connection with a Change in Control, the failure
                  of a successor of the Company to expressly assume and
                  agree to perform this Agreement pursuant to the provisions
                  of Section 6.2 of this Agreement prior to the Change in
                  Control Date; provided, however, that a termination of
                  employment by the Employee: (A) subsequent to an express
                  assumption and agreement to perform this Agreement by such
                  successor on or after the Change in Control Date, or (B)
                  subsequent to a date that is two years after a Change in
                  Control Date, shall not be deemed to be for "Good Reason"
                  under this subsection.

                                     8

         For purposes of this Section, any good faith determination of "Good
Reason" made by the Employee shall be conclusive unless and until such
determination is overturned by a court of competent jurisdiction.

         3.5      VOLUNTARY TERMINATION BY THE EMPLOYEE. The Employee may
voluntarily terminate his employment with the Company for any reason or for
no reason at any time during the Employment Period.

         3.6      TERMINATION BY THE COMPANY WITHOUT CAUSE. The Company may
terminate the Employee's employment with the Company for any reason or for
no reason, without citing Cause, at any time during the Employment Period,
subject to the provisions of Section 4 of this Agreement.

         3.7      NOTICE OF TERMINATION. Any termination by the Company or by
the Employee shall be communicated by Notice of Termination given in
accordance with Section 7.2 to the other party. For purposes of this
Agreement, a "Notice of Termination" means a written notice which (i)
indicates the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon,
(ii) to the extent applicable, sets forth in reasonable detail the facts and
circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of the Employee's
employment under the provision so indicated, and (iii) if the Date of
Termination (as defined in Section 3.8 hereof) is other than the date of
receipt of such notice, specifies the Date of Termination. The failure by
the Employee or the Company to set forth in the Notice of Termination any
fact or circumstance which contributes to a showing of Good Reason or Cause
shall not waive any right of the Employee or the Company hereunder or
preclude the Employee or the Company from asserting such fact or
circumstance in enforcing the Employee's or the Company's rights hereunder.

         3.8      DATE OF TERMINATION. "Date of Termination" means (i) if the
Employee's employment is terminated by the Company for Cause or any other
reason, the date of receipt by the Employee of the Notice of Termination or
any later date specified therein, as the case may be, (ii) if the Employee's
employment is terminated by reason of death or Disability, the date of death
of the Employee or the Disability Effective Date, as the case may be, or
(iii) if the Employee's employment is terminated by the Employee for Good
Reason, the date specified in the Notice of Termination which date shall not
be more than thirty (30) or less than fifteen (15) days after the receipt of
such notice; or (iv) if the Employee's employment is terminated by the
Employee voluntarily (either prior to or after a Change in Control Date),
the date that is specified in the Notice of Termination.

SECTION 4:        CERTAIN BENEFITS UPON TERMINATION.

         4.1      TERMINATION WITHOUT CAUSE OR FOR GOOD REASON NOT IN
CONNECTION WITH A CHANGE IN CONTROL. If, prior to a Change in Control Date
during the Employment Period (except in the event that one of the following
terminations of employment occurs within the six-month period prior to the
earlier of (a) a Change in Control Date or (b) the execution of a definitive
agreement or contract that eventually results in a Change in Control, which
shall result in the payment of severance benefits set forth in Section 4.2
of this Agreement), (i) the Company shall terminate the Employee's
employment without

                                     9

<PAGE>

Cause, or (ii) the Employee shall terminate his employment for Good Reason,
the Employee shall be entitled to the payment of the benefits provided
below:

                  4.1(a)   ACCRUED OBLIGATIONS. Within thirty (30) days after
                  the Date of Termination, the Company shall pay to the
                  Employee the sum of (i) the Employee's Annual Base Salary
                  through the Date of Termination to the extent not
                  previously paid, (ii) the accrued benefit payable to the
                  Employee under any compensation plan, program or
                  arrangement in which the Employee is a participant subject
                  to the computation of benefits provisions of such plan,
                  program or arrangement, and (iii) any accrued vacation
                  pay; in each case to the extent not previously paid (the
                  "Accrued Obligations").

                  4.1(b)   ANNUAL BASE SALARY CONTINUATION. For a period of
                  twelve (12) months beginning in the month immediately
                  subsequent to the month in which the Date of Termination
                  occurs, the Company shall pay to the Employee, on a
                  semi-monthly basis consistent with its then-existing
                  payroll practices, an amount equal to one/twenty-fourth
                  (1/24th) of the Employee's then-current Annual Base
                  Salary; provided, however, that during months seven (7)
                  through twelve (12) of such period, the amount of such
                  payments shall be reduced by the amounts, if any, earned
                  by the Employee during such months as a result of
                  self-employment and/or employment with another employer.
                  As a condition of payment during months seven through
                  twelve, the Employee agrees to provide the Company with
                  verification, reasonably acceptable to the Company,
                  substantiating the amounts of any such earnings or the
                  Employee's lack of other employment, as the case may be.
                  The Company at any time may elect to pay the balance of
                  such payments then remaining in a lump sum, without
                  discount.

         4.2      BENEFITS UPON TERMINATION WITHOUT CAUSE OR FOR GOOD REASON
IN CONNECTION WITH A CHANGE IN CONTROL. If (a) a Change in Control occurs
during the Employment Period and within two (2) years after the Change in
Control Date (i) the Company shall terminate the Employee's employment
without Cause, or (ii) the Employee shall terminate employment with the
Company for Good Reason, OR, alternatively, (b) if one of the
above-described terminations of employment occurs within the six-month
period prior to the earlier of (i) a Change in Control Date or (ii) the
execution of a definitive agreement or contract that eventually results in a
Change in Control, then the Employee shall become entitled to the payment of
the benefits as provided below as of either (y) the Date of Termination, in
the case where the sequence of the requisite events is as set forth in
subsection (a) above or (z) the Change in Control Date, in the case where
the sequence of the requisite events occurred as set forth in subsection (b)
above (the relevant date for purposes of entitlement to the benefits as set
forth in this Section 4.2 is hereinafter referred to as the "Entitlement
Date"):

                  4.2(a)   ACCRUED OBLIGATIONS. Within thirty (30) days after
                  the Entitlement Date, the Company shall pay to the
                  Employee the Accrued Obligations.

                  4.2(b)   SEVERANCE AMOUNT. Within thirty (30) days after the
                  Entitlement Date, the Company shall pay to the Employee as
                  severance pay in a lump sum, in cash, an amount

                                     10

<PAGE>
<PAGE>

                  equal to one (1) times an amount equal to the Employee's
                  then-current Annual Base Salary.

                  4.2(c)   STOCK OPTIONS AND RESTRICTED STOCK. To the extent
                  not otherwise provided for under the terms of the
                  Company's stock-based compensation plans or the Employee's
                  award or grant agreements, all stock options and
                  restricted stock held by the Employee that have not
                  expired in accordance with their respective terms shall
                  fully vest as of the Entitlement Date.

         4.3      DEATH. If the Employee's employment is terminated by reason
of the Employee's death during the Employment Period (either prior or
subsequent to the Change in Control Date), this Agreement shall terminate
without further obligations to the Employee's legal representatives under
this Agreement, other than for (i) payment of Accrued Obligations (which
shall be paid to the Employee's estate or beneficiary, as applicable, in a
lump sum in cash within thirty (30) days of the Date of Termination) and
(ii) the timely payment or provision of such other benefits required to be
paid or provided by the Company to the Employee or the Employee's family
under any plan, program, policy, practice, contract or agreement of the
Company generally provided to other peer employees and their families
("Other Benefits"), including all such benefits payable in the event of
death.

         4.4      DISABILITY. If the Employee's employment is terminated by
reason of the Employee's Disability during the Employment Period (either
prior or subsequent to a Change in Control), this Agreement shall terminate
without further obligations to the Employee, other than for (i) payment of
Accrued Obligations (which shall be paid to the Employee in a lump sum in
cash within thirty (30) days of the Date of Termination) and (ii) the timely
payment or provision of Other Benefits including all such benefits payable
in the event of Disability.

         4.5      TERMINATION FOR ANY OTHER REASONS. If the Employee's
employment shall be terminated for Cause or by the Employee voluntarily
(either prior or subsequent to a Change in Control Date), this Agreement
shall terminate without further obligations to the Employee other than the
obligation to pay to the Employee the Accrued Obligations. In such case, all
of the Employee's Accrued Obligations shall be paid to the Employee in a
lump sum in cash within thirty (30) days of the Date of Termination.

         4.6      ENTIRE AGREEMENT; PRIOR AGREEMENTS AND BENEFITS UNDER OTHER
PLANS SUPERCEDED. This Agreement is the entire agreement of the parties on
the subject matter contained herein and shall supercede all prior
agreements, arrangements and understandings that the Employee and the
Company may have had with respect to the Employee's employment with the
Company and the payment of benefits by the Company to the Employee in the
event of a termination of the Employee's employment, either prior to or in
conjunction with a Change in Control, including that certain Employment
Agreement dated the 30th day of September, 2004. The benefits payable
pursuant to this Agreement are in lieu of and in substitution for any
termination benefits payable by the Company in conjunction with any other
plan, program, policy, practice, contract or agreement that the Company may
have had either in the past, currently or in the future.

                                     11

         4.7      FULL SETTLEMENT. The parties agree that the Company's
obligation to make the payments provided for in this Agreement and otherwise
to perform its obligations hereunder are intended to be in full settlement
of all claims that the Employee may have against the Company with respect to
the termination of the Employee's employment with the Company and the
Employee may be required to execute and deliver an agreement to this effect
prior to receipt of any payments under this Agreement. The payments to be
made by the Company or any other obligation that the Company is required to
perform pursuant to this Agreement shall not be affected by any set-off,
counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other claim, right or action which the
Company may have against the Employee or others. In no event shall the
Employee be obligated to seek other employment or take any other action by
way of mitigation of the amounts payable to the Employee under any of the
provisions of this Agreement and, except as provided in Section 4.1(b), such
amounts shall not be reduced whether or not the Employee obtains other
employment. To the extent the Employee prevails in any contest with respect
to the validity or enforceability of, or liability under, any provision of
this Agreement or any guarantee of performance thereof (including as a
result of any contest by the Employee regarding the amount of any payment
pursuant to this Agreement), the Company agrees to pay promptly, to the full
extent permitted by law, all legal fees and expenses which the Employee may
reasonably incur as a result of any such contest, plus in each case interest
on any delayed payment at the applicable Federal rate provided for in Code
Section 7872(f)(2)(A).

         4.8      RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES. If there shall be any dispute between
the Company and the Employee (i) as to whether any termination of the
Employee's employment was for Cause, or (ii) as to whether any termination
of the Employee's employment for Good Reason was made in good faith, then,
unless and until there is a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of
competent jurisdiction declaring that such termination was for Cause or that
the determination by the Employee of the existence of Good Reason was not
made in good faith, the Company shall pay all amounts, and provide all
benefits, to the Employee and/or the Employee's family or other
beneficiaries, as the case may be, that the Company would be required to pay
or provide pursuant to Section 4.1 or 4.2 as though such termination was
without Cause or for Good Reason, as the case may be; provided, however,
that the Company shall not be required to pay any disputed amounts pursuant
to this Section 4.8 except upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of
the Employee to repay all such amounts to which the Employee is ultimately
adjudged by such court not to be entitled.

SECTION 5:        NON-COMPETITION.

         5.1      NON-COMPETE AGREEMENT.

                  5.1(a)   During the period beginning on the Date of
                  Termination and ending one (1) year thereafter, the
                  Employee shall not, without prior written approval of the
                  principal executive officer of the Company, become a
                  partner, officer, director, stockholder, advisor,
                  employee, consultant, agent, salesman or otherwise of any
                  business enterprise in substantial direct competition (as
                  defined in Section 5.1(b)) with the Company or any of its
                  subsidiaries in the United States or in any other country
                  in which the Company does

                                    12

<PAGE>
<PAGE>

                  business on the Date of Termination; provided that, if the
                  Employee's employment is terminated for Good Reason, then
                  the Employee will not be subject to the restrictions of
                  this Section 5.1(a). This restriction will not limit the
                  Employee's right to invest in five percent (5%) or less of
                  the outstanding capital stock or other equity securities
                  of any corporation, the stock or securities of which are
                  publicly traded on a national stock exchange.

                  5.1(b)   For purposes of Section 5.1, a business enterprise
                  with which the Employee becomes associated shall be
                  considered in substantial direct competition, if such
                  entity competes with the Company or its subsidiaries in
                  any business in which the Company or any of its
                  subsidiaries is engaged and is within the Company's or the
                  subsidiary's market area as of the Date of Termination.

                  5.1(c)   During the period beginning on the date the
                  Employment Period terminates and ending one (1) year
                  thereafter, the Employee shall not directly or indirectly
                  solicit the employment of, recruit, employ, hire, cause to
                  be employed or hired, entice away or establish a business
                  relationship with, (i) any then current employee of the
                  Company or any of its subsidiaries or (ii) any person who
                  was employed by the Company or any of its subsidiaries
                  during the six (6) months immediately prior to the date
                  that the Employee first solicits such person.

         5.2      CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. The Employee shall hold in a
fiduciary capacity for the benefit of the Company all secret or confidential
information, knowledge or data relating to the Company or any of its
affiliated companies, and their respective businesses, which shall have been
obtained by the Employee during the Employee's employment by the Company and
which shall not be or become public knowledge (other than by acts by the
Employee or representatives of the Employee in violation of this Agreement).
After termination of the Employee's employment with the Company, the
Employee shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company, or as
may otherwise be required by law or legal process, communicate or divulge
any such information, knowledge or data to anyone other than the Company and
those designated by it. In no event shall an asserted violation of the
provisions of this Section constitute a basis for deferring or withholding
any amounts otherwise payable to the Employee under this Agreement.

SECTION 6:        SUCCESSORS.

         6.1      SUCCESSORS OF EMPLOYEE. This Agreement is personal to the
Employee and, without the prior written consent of the Company, the rights
(but not the obligations) shall not be assignable by the Employee otherwise
than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. This Agreement shall
inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Employee's legal
representatives.

         6.2      SUCCESSORS OF COMPANY. The Company will require any successor
(whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or
otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the
Company to assume expressly and agree to perform this Agreement in the same
manner and

                                     13

<PAGE>
<PAGE>

to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no
such succession had taken place. Failure of the Company to obtain such
agreement prior to the effectiveness of any such succession shall be a
breach of this Agreement and shall entitle the Employee to terminate this
Agreement at his option on or after the Change in Control Date for Good
Reason. As used in this Agreement, "Company" shall mean the Company as
hereinbefore defined and any successor to its business and/or assets which
assumes and agrees to perform this Agreement by operation of law, or
otherwise.

SECTION 7:         MISCELLANEOUS.

         7.1      OTHER AGREEMENTS. The Board may, from time to time in the
future, provide other incentive programs and bonus arrangements to the
Employee with respect to the occurrence of a Change in Control that will be
in addition to the benefits required to be paid in the designated
circumstances in connection with the occurrence of a Change in Control. Such
additional incentive programs and/or bonus arrangements will affect or
abrogate the benefits to be paid under this Agreement only in the manner and
to the extent explicitly agreed to by the Employee in any such subsequent
program or arrangement.

         7.2      NOTICE. For purposes of this Agreement, notices and all other
communications provided for in the Agreement shall be in writing and shall
be deemed to have been duly given when delivered or mailed by certified or
registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed to the
respective addresses as set forth below; provided that all notices to the
Company shall be directed to such other address as one party may have
furnished to the other in writing in accordance herewith, except that notice
of change of address shall be effective only upon receipt.

payable under this Agreement such Federal, state or local taxes as shall be
required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.

         7.5      WAIVER. The Employee's or the Company's failure to insist
upon strict compliance with any provision hereof or any other provision of
this Agreement or the failure to assert any right the Employee or the
Company may have hereunder, including, without limitation, the right of the
Employee to terminate employment for Good Reason pursuant to Section 3.4
shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such provision or right or any other
provision or right of this Agreement.

authorization from its Board, have caused this Agreement to be executed in
its name on its behalf, all as of the day and year first above written.

                             SECOND AMENDMENT TO
                     AMENDED AND RESTATED LOAN AGREEMENT

         This SECOND AMENDMENT TO AMENDED AND RESTATED LOAN AGREEMENT (this
"Agreement") is entered into and effective as of October 28, 2005, by and
among Angelica Corporation, a Missouri corporation ("Borrower"), LaSalle
Bank National Association ("LaSalle"), as Administrative Agent
("Administrative Agent"), and LaSalle and the other lenders listed on the
signature page hereto (the "Lenders").

                                  RECITALS:
                                  --------

A.       Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lenders are party to that
         Amended and Restated Loan Agreement dated as of January 27, 2005,
         as amended from time to time (as amended, the "Original Loan
         Agreement").

B.       Administrative Agent, Lenders and Borrower have agreed to the
         provisions set forth herein on the terms and conditions contained
         herein.

                                  AGREEMENT
                                  ---------

         Therefore, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein and
other sufficient consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged,
Borrower, Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree as follows:

1. DEFINITIONS. All references to the "Agreement" or the "Loan Agreement" in
the Original Loan Agreement and in this Agreement shall be deemed to be
references to the Original Loan Agreement as it may be amended, restated,
extended, renewed, replaced, or otherwise modified from time to time.
Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings
given them in the Original Loan Agreement.

2. EFFECTIVENESS OF AGREEMENT. This Agreement shall become effective, unless
otherwise stated herein, as of the date first written above, but only if
this Agreement has been executed by Borrower and Administrative Agent and
each Lender, and acknowledged by each Guarantor.

3. CONSENT.
Section 13.18 of the Original Loan Agreement provides that no later than
August 31, 2005 (unless Administrative Agent in its sole discretion agrees
in writing to a later date), other than ordinary course of business storage
at customers of no more than thirty (30) consecutive days for any item of
Inventory, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall not store any Inventory
or other assets in excess of $250,000 in the aggregate with a bailee,
warehouseman, consignee or pursuant to an express or implied agreement
establishing a bailment or consignment of Inventory or similar arrangement,
unless Administrative Agent has received a written acknowledgment
satisfactory to Administrative Agent from the third party involved which
acknowledges the prior perfected Security Interest of Administrative Agent
for the benefit of Lenders in such Inventory. Such August 31, 2005 date was
extended to September 30, 2005 by the Administrative Agent pursuant to a
Consent to Loan Agreement, between Borrower and Administrative Agent, dated
as of August 31, 2005 (the "First Consent"), and as it was further extended
to October 28, 2005 pursuant to a Consent to Loan Agreement, between
Borrower and Administrative Agent, dated as of September 30, 2005 (the
"Second Consent"). Borrower has notified Administrative

<PAGE>
<PAGE>

Agent that it will not obtain by October 28, 2005 all such required
consents. Administrative Agent hereby agrees that the October 28, 2005 date
referred to in the Second Consent is extended to November 30, 2005 for all
of Borrower's and its Subsidiaries' locations, other than their Hempstead,
New York locations. Administrative Agent reserves the right to grant further
extensions to such date in its sole discretion.

4. CONSENT.
Section 13.18 of the Original Loan Agreement provides that no later than
August 31, 2005 (unless Administrative Agent in its sole discretion agrees
in writing to a later date), other than ordinary course of business storage
at customers of no more than thirty (30) consecutive days for any item of
Inventory, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall not store any Inventory
or other assets in excess of $250,000 in the aggregate with a bailee,
warehouseman, consignee or pursuant to an express or implied agreement
establishing a bailment or consignment of Inventory or similar arrangement,
unless Administrative Agent has received a written acknowledgment
satisfactory to Administrative Agent from the third party involved which
acknowledges the prior perfected Security Interest of Administrative Agent
for the benefit of Lenders in such Inventory. Such August 31, 2005 date was
extended to September 30, 2005 by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the
First Consent, and as it was further extended to October 28, 2005 pursuant
to the Second Consent, and as further extended, subject to limitations, in
Section 3 hereof. Borrower has notified Administrative Agent that it will
not obtain by October 28, 2005 such required consents for its and its
Subsidiaries Hempstead, New York locations. Administrative Agent and the
Required Lenders hereby agree that no such consent is required for the
Hempstead, New York locations, if and only if the assets at such location
