          (D) Change to Definition of Maximum Amount. The Definition of Maximum Amount shall

               “Maximum Amount means an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time $72,500,000.00

          (F) Addition of Definition of “First Amendment Effective Date”. As of the First
Amendment Effective Date, the Definition of “First Amendment Effective Date” set forth below shall
be added to Article I Section 1.1 of the Loan Agreement in appropriate alphabetical order to read
in its entirety as follows:

               “First Amendment Effective Date shall mean July 2, 2008.”

     2.02 Amendments To Section 2 Revolving Loan and Lending Limits. As of the
First Amendment Effective Date:

          (A) Change to Section 2.1(c) of the Loan Agreement (Maximum Advances). Section 2.1(c)
is hereby amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows:

               “2.1(c) Maximum Amount of Advances. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, no Lender shall have an obligation to make an Advance of its Pro Rata Percentage
thereof hereunder to the extent that (i) the aggregate of Advances outstanding would cause

2

 

the Loan to exceed the lesser of (A) Borrowing Base, (B) the Availability or (C) the Commitment, or (ii) in
an amount which would cause the aggregate outstanding principal balance of Liberty Bank’s
Commitment retained by Liberty Bank and not participated to other lenders to exceed Forty Million
Dollars ($40,000,000); or (C) such an Advance would cause such Lender or any Participant in such
loans to violate any legal lending limit under Section 2.5 hereof or otherwise.”

          (B) Change to Section 2.3(c) of the Loan Agreement (Payments). Section 2.3(c) is
hereby amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows:

               “2.3 Origination Fee; Renewal Fee(s); Unused Line Fee; and Late Fee. Borrower shall
pay the Origination Fee as prescribed in Section 4.2 of the Loan Agreement. In addition,
annually for each twelve-month extension to the Revolving Loan Period agreed to in writing by
Agent, Lenders and Borrower (and without binding any of the foregoing parties in advance to enter
into such an extension), Borrower shall pay a fee of 0.25% (each, a “Renewal Fee”) of the
Commitment on or before the effective date of such extension. In addition, the Borrower shall pay
an unused line fee (the “Unused Line Fee”) calculated as of the last day of each calendar month
equal to one quarter of one percent (0.250%) per annum of the difference between (i) the Maximum
Amount, and (ii) the average outstanding principal balance of the Loan during such month, due and
payable by the fifteenth (15th) day of the following calendar month; provided,
that the Unused Line Fee will be waived for any calendar month where the average outstanding
principal balance of the Loan during such month exceeds Forty Percent (40%) of the Maximum Amount.
In addition, Borrower shall, if any installment of interest and/or the payment of principal is not
received by Lender within 5 Business Days after the due date thereof, then in addition to the
remedies conferred upon Lender pursuant to Section 9 hereof and the other Loan Documents,
Lender may elect to assess a late charge of five percent (5%) of the amount of the installment due
and unpaid, which such late charge shall be added to the delinquent amount to compensate Lender for
the expense of handling the delinquency. Borrower and Lender agree that such late charge
represents a good faith and fair and reasonable estimate of the probable cost to Lender of such
delinquency. Borrower acknowledges that during the time that any such amount is in default, Lender
shall incur losses which are impracticable, costly and inconvenient to ascertain and that such late
charge represents a reasonable sum considering all of the circumstances existing on the Effective
Date of this Agreement and represents a reasonable estimate of the losses Lender shall incur by
reason of late payment. Borrower further agrees that proof of actual losses would be costly,
inconvenient, impracticable and extremely difficult to fix. Acceptance of such late charge shall
not constitute a waiver of the default with respect to the overdue installment, and shall not
prevent Lender from exercising any of the other rights and remedies available hereunder.”

     2.03 Amendment Restatement of Section 7 Covenants. As of the First Amendment
Effective Date, Section 7.1(x)(ii) of the Loan Agreement (Affirmative Covenants) is hereby amended
and restated to read in its entirety as follows:

               “7.1(x)(ii) Marketing and Sales Expenses. As of the last day of each calendar fiscal
quarter, commencing upon the First Amendment Effective Date, Borrower will not permit the four
quarter cumulative ratio of Marketing and Sales Expenses to the Borrower’s vacation interval sales
as recorded on the Borrower’s financial statements for the immediately preceding four (4)
consecutive fiscal quarters of the Borrower to equal or exceed a ratio of .60 to 1.”

     2.04 Amendments to Schedule 1.0 to Loan Agreement. As of the First Amendment
Effective Date, Schedule 1.0 to the Loan Agreement shall be in the form attached hereto as Schedule
1.0.

3
