NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual obligations of the parties hereto, the Loan Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

1.  Amendments to the Loan Agreement.

A. Section 1 (Definitions) the definition of “Term Loan Maturity Date” is amended to mean October 31, 2013.

2. Continuing Effect. All other terms, conditions, representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Loan Agreement shall remain the same and shall continue in full force and effect. In consideration hereof, Borrower represents and warrants that each representation and warranty set forth in the Loan Agreement, as hereby amended, remains true and correct as of the date hereof, except to the extent that such representation and warranty is expressly intended to apply solely to an earlier date, that there presently exist no known offsets, counterclaims or defenses to the performance of the obligations under the Instruments (collectively, the “Obligations”) (such known offsets, counterclaims or defenses, if any, being hereby expressly waived), and that Borrower has no other known claims, demands, allegations or rights of action of any nature based on any matter arising from or related to the Obligations or Borrower’s relationship with the Lender (such known claims, demands, allegations or rights of action, if any, being hereby expressly waived) nor has there occurred any Event of Default under the Loan Agreement or any of the Instruments, and that there will be no Event of Default after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Amendment. The representations and warranties contained in the Loan Agreement originally shall survive this Amendment in their original form and shall survive as continuing representations and warranties of Borrower. Except as expressly herein provided, the Loan Agreement and this Amendment shall be interpreted, wherever possible, in a manner consistent with one another, but in the event of any irreconcilable inconsistency, this Amendment shall control. The parties each hereby agree to cooperate in all reasonable requests of each other party hereto, including, without limitation, the authentication of financing statements and other documents, which the requesting party deems reasonable, necessary, appropriate or expedient to carry out the intents and purposes of this Amendment. Capitalized terms used herein and not specifically herein defined shall have the meanings ascribed in the Loan Agreement.

3. Conditions Precedent. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Amendment to the contrary, the Lender shall have no obligation under this Amendment until each of the following conditions precedent have been fulfilled to the satisfaction of the Lender:

(a) The Lender shall have received each of the following, in form and substance satisfactory to the Lender:

(1) This Amendment and such other instruments, documents and opinions as the Lender shall reasonably require, all duly executed by the parties thereto in the forms approved by the Lender;

(b) All legal matters incident to this Amendment shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Lender and its counsel.

4. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. Facsimile signatures will be deemed acceptable and binding.

5. Not a Novation. This Amendment is a modification only and not a novation. Except for the above-referenced modifications the Loan Documents and any other agreement or security document, and all the terms and conditions thereof, shall be and remain in full force and effect with the changes herein deemed to be incorporated therein. This Amendment completely replaces and supercedes a certain Sixth Amendment to Loan Agreement dated effective as of November 1, 2012 and executed by Borrower on November 8, 2012.

The parties are signing this Amendment effective as of the date stated in the introductory paragraph.
