ARTICLE I
DEFINITIONS

1.01        Capitalized terms used in this Amendment, to the extent not otherwise defined herein, shall have the same meaning as in the Loan Agreement, as amended hereby.

ARTICLE II
AMENDMENTS TO LOAN AGREEMENT; OTHER AGREEMENTS

2.01        Amendment to Section 11.1 of the Loan Agreement; Amendment and Restatement of the Definition of “Availability”.  Effective as of May 14, 2005, the definition of

1

“Availability” contained in Section 11.1 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

“‘Availability’ means the amount determined as follows: (i) the excess, if any, of the Borrowing Base over the sum of the Revolving Loan and Letter of Credit Reserve, minus (ii) the Reduced Availability Amount.”

2.02        Amendment to Section 11.1 of the Loan Agreement; Addition of the Definition of “Reduced Availability Amount”.  Effective as of the May 14, 2005, a new definition of “Reduced Availability Amount” is hereby added to Section 11.1 of the Loan Agreement to read as follows:

“‘Reduced Availability Amount’ means, at any time when Borrower is not in compliance with the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, the amount of increase in Operating Cash Flow which would be required in order for Borrower to be in compliance with the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for such quarter after a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Triggering Event has occurred.”

2.03        Amendment to Paragraph B of the Financial Covenants Rider to the Loan Agreement.  Effective as of the May 14, 2005, Paragraph B of the Financial Covenants Rider to the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated to read in its entirety to read as follows:

“B.          Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio.  Upon the occurrence of a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Triggering Event, Borrower shall not permit its Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the time period ending on the last day of each quarter during the period after a Fixed Charge Coverage Triggering Event has occurred to be less than 1.1 to 1.0.

For purposes of this Paragraph B of this Financial Covenants Rider, a “Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Triggering Event” shall mean, the date on which (i) Borrower’s unrestricted cash on hand is less than $20,000,000 or (ii) the date on which the outstanding Revolving Loans are greater than $250,000.”

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Borrower fails to comply with the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio during any quarter and, after Agent implements the Reduced Availability Amount, Borrower has Availability of $0 or greater, then such noncompliance will not be a basis for a Default or an Event of Default hereunder.

2.04        Amendment to Schedule 11.1(B) of the Loan Agreement.  Effective as of the May 14, 2005, Schedule 11.1(B) of the Loan Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with Schedule 11.1(B) attached hereto.

2.05        Amendment to Paragraph A of the Reporting Rider to the Loan Agreement.  Effective as of February 28, 2005, Paragraph A of the Reporting Rider is amended so that notwithstanding the wording of such Paragraph A, the due date for each of the monthly financials for January, 2005 and February, 2005 shall be April 13, 2005.
