AMENDMENTS TO EXISTING LOAN AGREEMENT

SUBPART 2.1. Amendment to Definition to Applicable Margin. The definition of Applicable Margin in Section 1 of the Existing Loan Agreement is amended in its entirety so that such definition now reads as follows:

“Applicable Margin” shall mean the Applicable Margin set forth below based on EBITDA for the 12-fiscal month period ending on the last day of each fiscal quarter.

As of the Second Amendment Effective Date, the Applicable Margin shall be set at the applicable Level II and shall remain in effect until delivery to Agent of Borrower’s compliance certificate in respect of the audited annual financial statements for the Fiscal Year ended on or about December 31, 2007, 10 Business Days after which delivery the Applicable Margin will be adjusted based on the EBITDA for the 12-fiscal month period ending on the last day of such fiscal month. Thereafter, the Applicable Margin shall be adjusted to the extent applicable with respect to the compliance certificate delivered with respect to the last fiscal month of each fiscal quarter of Borrower. Each such change shall take effect 10 Business Days after delivery of such compliance certificate. If Borrower fails to deliver the compliance certificate within the time period required by this Agreement, the Applicable Margin shall conclusively be presumed to equal the applicable Level II from the date such compliance certificate was required to be delivered until 10 Business Days after delivery of such compliance certificate.

SUBPART 2.3. Amendment to Section 10. The second sentence of Section 10 is amended in its entirety so that such sentence now reads as follows:

If, during the term of this Agreement, Borrower optionally prepays all or any portion of the Term Loan, Borrower, agrees to pay to Agent, for the benefit of Lender, as a prepayment fee, in addition to the payment of all other Liabilities, an amount equal to: (i) if such prepayment occurs in full prior to July 1, 2008, two percent (2.0%) of the principal amount of the Term Loan so prepaid; (ii) if such prepayment occurs in part prior to July 1, 2008 (A) up to a principal amount of $5,000,000 of the Term Loan so prepaid, three percent (3%) of any such amount and (B) any principal amount prepaid greater than $5,000,000 but less than the full amount of the Term Loan so prepaid, the greater of (x) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the portion of the Term Loan so prepaid from prepayment, at the applicable rate hereunder as of the date of such prepayment, if such portion of the Term Loan remained outstanding through June 29, 2009 and (y) two percent (2.0%) of the principal amount of the Term Loan so prepaid; provided, however, if the aggregate amount of all partial prepayments made prior to July 1, 2008 is sufficient to prepay the principal amount of the Term Loan in full prior to such date (the date of such aggregate prepayment in full, the “Prepayment in Full Date”), then, within ten (10) Business Days of the Prepayment in Full Date, Agent (on behalf of Lender) shall pay to Borrower an amount equal to (1) the aggregate amount of all prepayment fees actually paid to Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lender) minus (2) two percent (2.0%) of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan so prepaid; (iii) if such prepayment occurs on or after July 1, 2008, but on or prior to June 29, 2009, the greater of (x) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the portion of the Term Loan so prepaid from prepayment, at the applicable rate hereunder as of the date of such prepayment, if such portion of the Term Loan remained outstanding through June 29, 2009 and (y) two percent (2.0%) of the principal amount of the Term Loan so prepaid; (iv) if such prepayment occurs after June 29, 2009, but before June 29, 2010, one percent (1.0%) of the principal amount of the Term Loan so prepaid; or (v) $0 if such prepayment occurs on or after June 29, 2010.

Amendment to Section 14(a). FINANCIAL COVENANTS.

Until payment and satisfaction in full of all Liabilities and the termination of this Agreement, unless Borrower obtains Requisite Lenders’ prior written consent waiving or modifying any of Borrower’s financial covenants hereunder in any specific instance, Borrower shall maintain and keep in full force and effect each of the financial covenants set forth below:

(a) Maximum Restructuring Cash Disbursements.

Borrower shall not make cash disbursements in respect of restructuring charges accrued on or after July 1, 2005 (including, as applicable and without limitation, with respect to the Restructuring Plan) in excess of (i) $4,500,000 in the aggregate for the Fiscal Year ending on or about December 31, 2007 and (ii) the sum of (x) $1,500,000 plus (y) an amount, not to exceed $1,000,000, equal to $4,500,000 minus the amount of cash disbursements actually made in respect of such restructuring charges for the Fiscal Year ending on or about December 31, 2007, in the aggregate for the Fiscal Year ending on or about December 31, 2008.

(b) Fixed Charge Coverage.

Subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 14(e) below, Borrower shall not permit the ratio of its EBITDA to Fixed Charges for any period set forth below to be less than the amount set forth below for such period:

(c) EBITDA.

Borrower shall not permit EBITDA for the specified periods below to be less than the corresponding specified amount for such period:

(d) Leverage.

Borrower shall not permit the ratio of its aggregate indebtedness for borrowed money (including capitalized leases) as of the last day of each fiscal month ending on or about each date set forth below, to EBITDA for the period of twelve (12) consecutive fiscal months ending on the last date of such fiscal month, to exceed the ratio set forth below for the fiscal month ending on or about the corresponding date set forth below:

(e) Capital Expenditures.

Borrower shall not permit the aggregate amount of all Capital Expenditures made by Borrower and its Subsidiaries to exceed (i) $4,000,000 during the first two fiscal quarters of any Fiscal Year and (ii) $7,000,000 in any Fiscal Year; provided that, commencing with the period of twelve consecutive fiscal months ending on or about June 30, 2008, and continuing thereafter as of the last day of each fiscal month for the twelve consecutive fiscal months then ending, if the ratio of its EBITDA to Fixed Charges for any period of calculation specified in Section 14(b) exceeds 1.10 to 1.0 (as evidenced in the compliance certificate delivered with respect to the last month of such period), the amount of Capital Expenditures permitted to be made by Borrower and its Subsidiaries pursuant to this clause (ii) for such Fiscal Year shall, at the request of Borrower, be increased by an amount equal to the product of such excess times EBITDA for such calculation period. For the avoidance of doubt and as an example only, should Borrower achieve a ratio of EBITDA to Fixed Charges of 1.15 to 1.00 for the period of twelve consecutive fiscal months ending on or about June 30, 2008 with EBITDA for the immediately preceding 12 fiscal month period equal to $10,000,000, Borrower may, at its request, increase the amount of Capital Expenditures permitted to be made by Borrower and its Subsidiaries pursuant to clause (ii) of this Section 14(e) for the Fiscal Year ending on or about December 31, 2008 by $500,000. Notwithstanding the foregoing adjustment provision, (i) in no event shall aggregate Capital Expenditures made by Borrower and its Subsidiaries exceed $8,250,000 in any Fiscal Year, and (ii) during any period in which Borrower elects to increase Capital Expenditures pursuant to this Section 14(e), Borrower shall not permit the ratio of its EBITDA to Fixed Charges for any applicable calculation period to be less than 1.10 to 1.0, notwithstanding any less restrictive provision of Section 14(b) to the contrary.
