(a) No Event of Default will exist immediately after giving effect to the amendment contained herein;
(b) Each of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 7 of the Loan Agreement are true and correct as though such representations and warranties were made at and as of the Amendment Effective Date, except to the extent that any such representations or warranties are made as of a specified date or with respect to a specified period of time, in which case such representations and warranties shall be made as of such specified date or with respect to such specified period.

(d) No consent of any other Person or filing or action by any governmental authorities, is required to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment;
(e) This Amendment has been duly executed by a duly authorized signatory on behalf of the Borrower and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as enforcement thereof may be subject to the effect of any applicable (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar law affecting creditors’ rights generally and (ii) general principals of equity; and
(f) The execution and delivery and performance of the agreements in this Amendment will not violate any law, statute or regulation applicable to the Borrower or any order or decree of any governmental authorities, or conflict with or result in the breach or any contractual obligation of the Borrower.

The Bank’s waiver of the Event of Default under Section 11.5 of the Purchase Agreement is limited to the specific instance of the Blair Default and shall not be deemed a waiver of or consent to any other failure to comply with the terms of Section 11.5 of the Loan Agreement or any other provisions of the Loan Agreement. Such waiver shall not prejudice or constitute a waiver of any right or remedies which the Bank may have or be entitled to with respect to any other breach of Section 11.5 or any other provision of the Loan Agreement. The Bank also hereby waives any right to restrict Blair from accepting an amendment fee from the Borrower in exchange for its agreement to amend the Purchase Agreement.
(b) The waivers in section (a) above are for this particular instance and shall not be construed as a waiver of any other presently existing or future default or Event of Default. Other than as specifically set forth herein, the Bank reserves all of its interests, rights and remedies under and pursuant to the Loan Documents.
Section 5. Effectiveness. The amendments and waivers to the Loan Agreement contained in Sections 1 and 4 of this Amendment shall become effective as of the date first referenced above after the Bank shall have received this Amendment, executed and delivered by the Borrower and the Bank (the “Amendment Effective Date”).
Section 6. Expenses. The Borrower agrees to pay on demand all reasonable costs and expenses, including filing and recording fees, incurred by the Bank in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of this Amendment, and any other documents or instruments which may be delivered in connection herewith, including without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel for the Bank.
Section 7. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute one and the same instrument. Faxed or emailed signatures of this Amendment shall be binding on the parties. Each party shall promptly send to the other party signed originals of faxed or emailed signatures to this Agreement.
Section 8. Ratification. The Loan Agreement, as amended hereby, is and shall continue to be in full force and effect and is hereby in all respects confirmed, approved and ratified. Except as amended and waived hereby, all terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement remain the same.
