SECTION 3.           TEMPORARY WAIVER.

3.1           Temporary Waiver Period.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Lenders party hereto agree to temporarily waive the Scheduled Defaults during the period from and including the Effective Date until the earliest to occur of (the date of such occurrence, the “Temporary Waiver Termination Date”; and such period, the “Temporary Waiver Period”) (a) 5:00 P.M.

SECTION 4.           AGREEMENTS.  To induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to temporarily waive the Scheduled Defaults during the Temporary Waiver Period, if the Scheduled Defaults have occurred and are continuing, the Borrowers, the other Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree as follows:

4.3           Minimum Liquidity.  From and after the Effective Date, the U.S. Borrower shall not, directly or indirectly, at any time permit (a) Liquidity to be less than $30,000,000 or (b) average Liquidity for five consecutive Business Days (“Average Liquidity”) to be less than $35,000,000; provided, however, that (i) Liquidity shall be calculated without giving effect to the unutilized amount of Commitments of any Defaulting Lender and (ii) if (A) Liquidity at any time is less than $30,000,000 but greater than $28,000,000 or (B) average Liquidity for five consecutive Business Days is less than $35,000,000 but greater than $33,000,000, such failure shall not constitute an Event of Default or a failure to perform its obligations hereunder if such failure is consented to by the Steering Committee within three Business Days after the occurrence of such failure.  Upon any Responsible Officer of the U.S. Borrower becoming aware of the failure to satisfy the requirement in clause (a) or (b) of the previous sentence, the U.S. Borrower shall immediately notify the Administrative Agent and the Steering Committee of such failure.  In addition, if at any time (x) Liquidity is less than $32,000,000 or (y) Average Liquidity is less than $37,000,000, the U.S. Borrower shall, on each Business Day thereafter, deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Steering Committee a report setting forth the Liquidity at the end of the previous Business Day and the Average Liquidity for the five consecutive Business Days ending on such previous day, and such daily reporting shall continue until the U.S. Borrower delivers to the Administrative Agent a report demonstrating that, at the end of the previous Business Day, Liquidity is greater than $32,000,000 and Average Liquidity is greater than $37,000,000.

4.4           Weekly Cash Flow Forecasts, Etc.  The U.S. Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Steering Committee, on Thursday (or the immediately succeeding Business Day if Thursday is not a Business Day) of each week (commencing with the week ending on Saturday July 4, 2009), (a) a 13-week cash flow forecast in the form of such forecast delivered to the Steering Committee prior to the Effective Date or another form reasonably satisfactory to the Steering Committee (the “13-Week Cash Flow Forecast”), (b) a reconciliation of the cash balances of the U.S. Borrower and its Subsidiaries between the amount shown on the U.S. Borrower’s general ledger for the prior week and the amount maintained on deposit for such week by the U.S. Borrower and its Subsidiaries with banks, (c) a variance report (i) showing on a line item basis the percentage and dollar variance of actual cash disbursements and revenues and cash receipts for the prior week from the amounts set forth for such week in the most recent 13-Week Cash Flow Forecast and (ii) containing explanations of material variances from such 13-Week Cash Flow Forecast, (d) a certificate, in a form satisfactory to the Steering Committee, of a Responsible Officer of the U.S. Borrower as to the calculation of Liquidity for the prior week and attaching forth such calculations and (e) the weekly flash information provided to the U.S. Borrower’s Board of Directors for such week.  Each delivery of the 13-Week Cash Flow Forecast shall be deemed to be a representation by the U.S. Borrower that such 13-Week Cash Flow Forecast has been prepared based upon good faith estimates and assumptions that the U.S. Borrower believes were reasonable at the time made (it being understood and agreed that such 13-Week Cash Flow Forecast is not to be viewed as fact and that actual results during the period or periods covered thereby may differ from such projected results).

4.5           Bi-Weekly Updates.  If requested by the Administrative Agent or the Steering Committee, on Thursday (or the immediately succeeding Business Day if Thursday is not a Business Day) of every other week (commencing with Thursday, July 9, 2009) during the Temporary Waiver Period, the U.S. Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent, the Steering Committee and their respective advisors with an update (via a meeting or conference call with the U.S. Borrower’s management and its advisors) on the weekly flash information provided to the Board of Directors, the
